first, and stated the county could lend
its men and teams during Christmas
week. Mayor Hearne, in replying to
the judge, said the court house was
the property of the county, and that
being true, and while the citizens of
the city paid nearly half the county
taxes, the county did not pay one cent
in keeping up the appearance of the
square and the. streets leading there
to, and he thought it the duty of the
county to do so. After this matter
was threshed out the judge took up
the matter of a health officer. He
suggested that the city and county
health officer should be one and the
same, to do effective work, and to
avoid conflict of authority, etc. The
mayor stated his arrangements had
been made for the balance of his term
in office, and that the change suggest
ed could not well be made.
1t was voted to refund certain por-
ton of a certain saloon license that
had been under controversy for some
time past.
The council adjourned to Monday
afternoon, December %, at O'Clock,
to fix officers salaries, etc, for the
ensuing year.

MRS. {. A. DUNCAN
MEETS SUDDEN DEATH
AGED LADY LIVED ALONE OVER
THE DUNCAN STORE, AND
FELL FROM AWNING
EARLY TODAY.
Was Dead When Found
Deceased Was Faithful Member of
Avenue Baptist Church, and An
Old Resident of the City.
Funeral VIII Be Held at
p. M. Tomorrow.

About a. m. today the lifeless body
of Mrs. E. A. Duncan was found on
the pavement on Main street, just in
front of the Duncan store. The aged
lady had evidently fallen or had been
thrown from the awning above, The
body when discovered was clothed in
night robe. and was still limp,
showing death had just ensued.
Mrs. Duncan was the mother of
Messrs. Sam p and Joel c. Duncan,
proprietors of the store. For many
years she had made her home ON the
second floor of the store, and there
she was content to stay, refusing alb
solutely to be moved. The sons say
they had repeatedly made overtures to
her to go with them, to make her
home, but she persistently refused,
saying that the second floor of the
store had been her home for years;
that her husband had died there, and
that she preferred TO live and die there
At times she had companion in
whomever could be employed to stay
with her, and at other times she was
alone. She protested that she prefer
red to be alone at night Deceased
would have been so years of age on
the 22nd day of January
Arrangements have been made for
the funeral, the hour having been set
for p. M tomorrow from the home
of Mr.. Joel c. Duncan, 213 Colorado
street.
When the Messrs. Duncan were
seen they said the only theories they
had was that their mother, on getting
up at her usual hour, must have mag
ined the house was on fire, and rush
ed to the window, or else she acct
dentally fell from the window, which
she had raised for some purpose. The

BARN WAS DAMAGED.
Three Arrests Made of Parties For
Driving Over Water Hose.

Last night at o'clock fire partial
ly destroyed the big barn of Mr. VIM.
Branagan, receiver for the Palestine
Water company. The barn is located
on DeBard street, and contained a
considerable amount of feed stuff of
an inflammable character. The fire
was started, it is understood, by a
negro porter upsetting a lamp while
at work in the barn. The fire COM
pany was promptly on the scene and
having a good water pressure at COM
mand, succeeded in saving portion
of the barn and keeping the fire from
spreading.
The fire boys made three arrests of
parties who drove over the water
hose across the street, and the men
will be given a hearing in the city
court for violation of this ordinance.

1t was voted that the finance COM

of $40 monthly, for services of the
treasurer, and on nomination of May
or Hearne, Mr.. c. A Sterne was made
treasurer, to fill out the unexpired
term CT Mr. Cutter.
1t was voted to spend s100 in con-
structing two street crossings in Old
Town, one across Fowler and one
across Cedar streets. The mayor
explained that the citizens in that ter
ritory had built about one thousand
feet of concrete sidewalk, and that in
his opinion the city could and should
lend encouragement by building
street crossings to conform to the
sidewalks. The council also took this
view of the matter.
A motion prevailed that the street
committee look to putting in an ade-
quate fountain on Line street, at the
place where the old Hays fountain
now stands.
The street committee was author
lied to buy an additional team of
mules.
Mayor Hearne took up the small
pox situation, and stated it was nee
essary for some action to be taken,
to prevent a further spread; that the
disease was getting too much scat
tered over the city to be handled as
the city had been handling it; that it
was too expensive and altogether in
adequate. He favored cooperation
with the county, and that the two
governments Jointly maintain a pest
house and share expenses of caring
for the cases. Judge Funderburk was
present, and stated that the county
