Nlaht Doctor Only.

A New York doctor has a new idea.
He practices at night only. He found
that so many night cases coming on
the top of his office hours and visits
wore him out, so he determined to
save his energy for the night work,
which paid best anyway. He says he
finds patients prefer having a doctor
who is fresh and wide awake instead
Of one who Is tired out after a days
work.

Thrift and economy are virtues
in which Americans do not excel.
In fact we may be considered the
most wasteful and extravagant of
peoples. The reason is found in
the easier conditions Of life prevail
ing mere rendering it unnecessary to
practice the rigid economies of the
peoples of the old world. Never
;heless it is a great pity that a wise
economy is not more generally prac-
ticed, for even in this land seasons
of business depression occur and
when they do thousands of homes
are reduced to poverty and misery
because thru improvident living
they had made no provi ion for
such contingencies. In this mat err
Of economy we may learn much
from other nations. In London,
for instance, savings banks are Or
ganized in connection with the pub
lie schools with the purpose of in
culcating habits of thrift among the
children. Last year those children
deposited $4,000 dollars, which
shows that the lesson was being
wisely lelned.

An amount of railroad building
which few years ago would have
attracted widespread interest in this
state, but which today is going on
quietly and almost unnoticed amid
the general growth and prosperity,
is being conducted by the Great
Northern at half a dozen points in
Washington, and the Hill system is
spending many millions on con-
struction work, without the usual
whoop and hurrah which accom-
panies railroad building. The
Waterville branch is almost COM
p.ete, the Oroville to Brewster line
is about to be started, work will al
80 be opened soon between the lat
ter point and Wenatchee, and plans
are under way for line from Wen
atchee to connect with the North
Bank road at Kennewick, ultimate
ly creating a level haul from the
Canadian boundary to the Pacific
Ocean. Construction is being pusht
on the Victoria, Vancouver and
Eastern, which will tap rich timber
and mining districts, and surveys
have been made for branch from
Spokane to Republic. Washington
is destined to be covered with as ex.
tensive a railroad system as many
of the more populous eastern states.

A man was recently sentenced to

He was a most foolish man and

The province of Saskatchewan
has followed the example of Alder
ia and Manitoba in buying out the
Bell Telephone company. This
form Of government ownership,
seems to meet with growing favor,
and the indications are that before

CITY COUNCIL.
City Orders Concrete Walks Filing
on Division Street.

The Board of Mayor and Aldermen
men Tuesday night with the following
proceedings:
Water and light committee instructed
to put in 4-inch main on First street
from Florida avenue to Mill street
A petition was presented by D. P.
Caldwell, signed by large number Of
citizens, asking for thing of the big
ditch on Division street. The petition
was discussed favorably and referred to
street and sidewalk committee with in
structions to ascertain cost of tiling and
filling from the Johnson corner to the
crossing of Harrison street and report.
1t is claimed that the hot water drain
age from the waterworks and other
drains make this ditch very unsanitary.
Street and sidewalk committee was
instructed to build walk in front of Dr.
C. w. Miles residence on Main street.
The question of concrete walks was
called up and after some discussion a
motion was made by Mr.. Gregory and
seconded by Mr.. Whipple that the city
begin system of concrete walks, to be
provided for with current revenues, half
the cost to be paid by the city and the
other half by owners of city property
along which walks are laid, location,
width and grade of walks to be at the
discretion of chairman of street and
sidewalk committee. This disposes of
the walk question, it being decided that
all new walks, as near as practical, be
made of concrete, and that the work be
done as rapidly as the revenues accrue
for that purpose.

KILLED AT BEAVER ARM.
Young Man Named Phillips is Killed
at Reelfoot Lake

Last Monday tragedy occurred at
Beaver Arm; point on the lake near
the Dyer County line below Stones
Ferry, in which a young man named
Phillips was shot and killed
1t is claimed that only five persons
were present and these were in some
way connected with the trouble, there
fore it is not easy to get very clear
statement of the case.
Pete and Smith Brannon have shanty
somewhere near that point and it is
claimed that three young men. or boys,
went to the shanty and took some whis-
key and started out on the lake in a
boat The Brannons saw them rowing
out and claim that they discharged a
gun in the air for the purpose Of bring
ing them back. The young men in the
boat returned and when they reached
the bank, Phillips, one of the party,
was shot and killed Whether or not
the killing was an accident has not yet
been definitely ascertained, but may
come out in the proof.
The Brannons were arrested and
brought to Obion, and there Sheriff
Easterwood took charge of them and
brought them here to jail, where they
now await the action of the grand jury.
Another story, probably related by
one of the boys, is that they called to
them to come back, at the same time
opening fire on the occupants of the
skiff. The boys in the skiff turned and
started towards the Brannons, who kept
on firing, one shot being fired at such
close range that it set the clothing worn
by Phillips on fire. Four shots took
effect in Phillips body, but none of his
companions were wounced.
