One Of the assistants in the attorney

BROKE HIS LEG.
John Lime Laid in Barn All
Night Without Help.

John Lime broke his leg on Thurs
day evening an laid in his barn all
night, and did not obtain assistance
until yesterday morning.
Mr.. Lime has not been staying at
home on account CT his family being
quarantined with scarlet fever. He
went to his barn between and 10
o'clock on Thursday evening to look
after his horse, and in climbing about
the barn fell and broke his right leg
at the ankle. He called loudly and re-
peatedly for help, but no one came to
relieve his suffering, and he spent the
whole night in the barn. He finally
crawled to the house about o'clock
yesterday morning, and during the
forenoon received medical attention.
Mr.. Lime and family have more
than their full share of misfortunes
just at present, and the kindliest sym
pathy is expressed for them by all.

Council Meeting.

At the regular council meeting on
Tuesday evening, bids were opened
for six Inch water meter to be at
tached to the main at the pumping
station. A half dozen dealers sub
mitted bids on several different kinds
of meter, and the council selected the
Empire meter at $412.
Bids for street sprinkling were open
ed, and the contract awarded to
Peterson & burst at $75 month, the
city to be paid $25 per month for the
water used.
The proposition of the Northern
Pacific to pay $370 towards building
the cement sidewalk and gutter abutt-
ing their property on Atlantic avenue
was accepted by the council. The 1870
will about pay the cost of a sidewalk,
and the city will have to pay for the
the gutter. The railroad company is
not liable to assessment for such inn
provements on account of the gross
earning tax, which is in lieu of all
other taxes.
The council also determined that
curbs and cutters should be ordered
on both sides of Atlantic avenue from
the N. P. transfer track to Fourth
street.
The Fourth of July committee ap-
peared before the council and asked
for the control of privileges on the
streets on July End and 3rd, and for
the revenue therefrom. The request
was granted.
The petition of the library board
for street lamp in front of the lib
rary building was granted and the
lamp ordered.
A petition was received from the
Woman's Civic League asking for a
Municipal Cleaning Day, May 15; for
the closing of the pool room and bowl
ing alley on Sunday; forbidding of
sweeping or throwing OF refuse into
streets and alleys; for the establish
ment of Garbage System; and the en-
forcement of the ordinance forbidding
splitting in streets and public buildings.
In accordance with the petition,
May 18th was designated as Clean
Up Day, the city attorney was in
structed to draft an ordinance closing
pool rooms and bowling alleys on Sun
day, and the police were instructed to
look to the enforcement of the anti
splitting ordinance.

HEALTH AND CLEANLINESS
Pointers on Public Health Given
by DR.. Bracken.

Obstacles are of little moment to
the ladies who compose the Civic I'm
provement League. They started out
to make the address by DR.. Fl. M.
Bracken, on "The People and Public
Health" success, and it was a sue
cess. The weather man handed out a
spring snow-storm, with mud and
slush and rain and wind, but still the
armory was we'll filed on Wednesday
evening.
DIR. Amos Leuty, the local health
officer, introduced DR.. Bracken, and
did himself prond in few brief re-
marks. DR.. Bracken, who is secre-
tary of the state board of health, gave
an address which was replete with
practical suggestions which would
have been of interest to every citizen
of Morris. No extended review of his
address can be given, but few of his
points are of special local application.
The speaker first reviewed the legal
phases of the health officers work, and
spoke of the great authority with
which the health officer is vested. He
stated that if a property owner failed
to clean up premises which were
obnoxious, that the officer could have
them cleaned and the cost taxed
against the property. In the disposal
of manure and other refuse, the doc
tor strongly advised that it be utilized
to fill up the low places about town
instead of being hauled to dump.
He cited what other towns had been
able to do with the refuse, and that it
is better to put it into the low places
and cover it with dirt than to have it
hauled to public dump, which is al
ways nuisance. In the collection of
garbage, he stated that this could be
made business proposition by Civ
ing someone the right to collect
it and feed hogs, and cited
the methods of other towns.
The doctor strongly urged better
milk inspection, and a meat inspec-
tion which would apply to that con-
sumed at home. He spoke of the
relation between uncleanliness and
contagious diseases. Especially he
commended the ladies for the work
they had undertaken here, and urged
every citizen of Morris to give them
his support.

A Notice Labor Leader.

Recent events in the labor world
have brought into prominence Thomas
Leroy Lewis. president of the United
Mine Workers of America. one of the
strongest trades union organizations
in America. A year ago last January
he succeeded John Mitchell as head
Of the great labor army, and largely
on him rests the responsibility of safe
guarding its interests. Previous to his
elevation to the presidency Mr.. Lewis
had for years been vice president Of
the union.
President Lewis is of Welsh descent,
a native of Pennsylvania and is forty
three years old. At the age of nine

and they crave the substance found in

had very little trouble so long as the
hogs were well fed and supplied with

bone charcoal also helps. If the hogs
can have constant access to wood
ashes and salt they will eat large
