CITY CONTRACT
FOUND VIOLATED
Vitrified Iron Sewer Pipes Are
Imperfectly Joined and Must
Be ReIaid at Once
Part Payment of Price SpeCi=
fled Refused Until Alter
atiOns Are Completed

The first fragrant violation of speci-
fcations for WORK to be performed from
the proceeds of the new $4,000 900
municipal bond issue has been uncov-
cred and corrected by the Civic league.
A protest from Winfield S. Williams,
consulting engineer of the league, al
leging that the new vitrified iron pipe
sewer in Howard street between Thir-
teenth and Erie did not come up to the
specifications. yesterday delayed part
payment for the work until the speci
cations have been complied with.
The fact that the sewer was being
in a faulty manner was
first noticed December 5. The attention
of the board of works was called to
the matter, and December Z members
of the board inspected the sewer.
Several of the joints were broken and
it was discovered that they had not
been properly cemented and that. the
oakum between the joints had not been
dipped in cement grout, as required by
the specifications. The defective work
was then torn out and proper work
promised. The Civic league had the
trench reopened Thursday last and dis
covered that the work performed after
the first disclosure was also faulty.
Yesterday the work was ordered un-
covered by the board of works, and
when it was shown that the work had
been performed in an improper man
ner. the request of Peter McHugh. the
contractor for part payment was not
allowed.
The fault is not that of the con-
tractor" said Williams yesterday, but
of his foreman and the city inspector.
1t is simply case of sloppy work on
the part of the men. 1t is not case
of graft. as the amount involved does
not exceed $50"

Prize Essay on "Why There
Should Be a Piano in Every
Home"
The supreme, the all sufficient reason why
there should be piano in every home is
that every home should be happy home,
and, outside the sacred influence of a good
mother, nothing contributes so much to the
happiness of the home as music, and no in
strument excels the piano in music making
witchery, in variety of tone and richness of
melody
Happy homes are the keystone in the
arch of Our splendid civilization, and happy
homes make hberty-loving, patriotic people
The experience of all the ages is that music
hallows the home, sanctihes its memories
and blesses and beauties human character
Few bad men go out from homes. where
music and mother are loved and honored.
A piano in the home is powerful magnet,
drawing the minds and hearts of the family
into heavenly harmony and making "Home,
Sweet Home, Though Ever So Humble
the dearest spot -on earth.
Every consideration, therefore, of parental
love, filial devotion and patriotic pride de-
mands that there should be piano III every
home
Parents can make no wiser Investment
no investment that returns richer dividends
in the character and lives of their children.
David's harp alone could soothe the
troubled spirit of Israers King, the Lords
anointed, and in all ages music has soothed
sorrowlng hearts and purified human affec-
tons
Every true home should have a piano.
the perfection of musical instruments, to
give added charm to the home circle. to

LYcEuM.
Al H. (Metzl Wilson.

AL H. Wilson, the gifted singer and
German dialect comedian, who brings
his latest play, when Old New York
Was Dutch" to the Lyceum theatre
Sunday afternoon, for a weeks en-
gagement, scarcely needs any intro
duction. He brings into his acting
abundant spirit, confidence, a lively
sense of humor and much gusto in
the expressing of it, while his glori-
Gus high baritone voice harmoniously
lends additional enchantment to the
auditor, when heard in his sweet
songs.
when Old New York Was Dutch
Is romantic story Of Americas early
history and the plot centers in AMI
around old New York in the days
when the last Dutch Governor, Peter
Stuyvesant, was deposed and Col.
Richard Nicolls installed in the posi-
tion. In devising the dramatic
scheme of that troublesome time and
imparting romantic coloring to it, a
great amount or ingenuity, originality
and pleasing fancy has been shown,
and the play depicts, with remarkable
clearness, an absorbing tale of Knick-
erbocker history in the year 1864.
There will be number of new
songs introduced by Mr.. Wilson dur
ing the action of the play, the most
prominent being, Helen" "The Old
Chimney Corner" Whispering
Breeze" "Auff Wiedersehen Frau
lein," and Soldiers of the Camp" a
medley that includes "a Song of
Home,' Annie Laurie Believe Me
of All Those Endearing Young
Charms" and Southlands Dixie"

Poetic Justice.

A certain couple in a New England
village, each the parent of six chill
dren, recently had meted out to them
a kind of poetic justice in which they
failed to see the poetry.
The woman, widow, pleading that
she had no home, and was therefore
unable to care for her children, in
duced the local authorities to admit
them to an orphan asylum. The man,
a widower, pleading he had no house
keeper, and therefore no one to care
for his children, induced the authori
ties to admit his six also. Thereupon
being freed from all membranes
these two married.
All went well for a few months,
when the authorities, learning of the
situation, promptly dispatched the 12
children back to their parents, and the
woman, no longer able to represent
herself as homeless or the man as
without a housekeeper they were
forced to receive them.

Mr.. Fries called attention to the
efforts of Mr.. Dunipace to bar him
from practice in the courts and to
the statement that he had access as
common pleas Judge to the evidence
obtained by the state against Nc
Closky.
Judge Baldwin asked the Prosecu.
tor what he thought the duties of a
judge of the courts were, and if he
thought it was the business of a
judge to take the side of the state
in a criminal case.
He expressed the opinion that the
prosecutor had the wrong notion of
the duties of Judge, which were to
really stand between sides, in Grim.

to see that justice was done to ALL
He could not imagine how Mr..
Dunipace could presume that Mr..
Fries had not right to appear in
any case, for either side because he
had been judge of the courts in
which he was practicing. Mr.. Duni-

OF the work of judge if he thought
the duties of judge were to examine

tice of the peace upon which some
person had been bound over to the

The Judge then stated that the

SIMPLE WASH CURES ECZEMA.
Why saIves Fail While a Simple
Liquid Has Accomplished
Thousands of Cures.

1t is now thoroughly established
among the best medical authorities
that eczema is purely skin disease,
due to germ, and durable only
through the skin. 1t is not a blood
disease at all; in fact, thousands of
people suffer with skin disease and
are perfectly healthy otherwise, and
thereby prove they have no diseased
blood.
Smeary salves cannot reach the
germs because they do not penetrate
the skin. The only way to reach the
germs is by means of a penetrating
liquid.
Such a liquid can be obtained by
simply mixing ordinary oil of win
tergreen with thymol, glycerine and
other healing agents. This COM
pound, known as d. d. d. Prescrip-
tion, stops the itch instantly-and the
cures all appear to be permanent. In
fact, it took thousands of cures, case
after case, before the best scientific
authorities were convinced of the alb
solute merits of this remedy. D. D.
D. Prescription kills the germs in the
itching skin. It's effect is seen within
one minute after the first applica-
ton. We especially recommend d. D.
D. Soap in connection with the treat
ment.

CONTROL CONSUMPTION
Exhibition Illustrating and Explain
ing Causes and Care,

For the purpose of educating people
in the prevention of tuberculosis of
the lungs, free tuberculosis eXhi-
bition will be made at the Memorial
hall, Toledo, from March % TO March
90 1909, which every person should
visit. There is nothing disagreeable
or dangerous, and it is not an adver-
tising scheme, but a practical exhibit
for educational purposes, for the
WE'LL that they may keep well.
Consumption can be prevented. but
the national and local organizations
cannot win the battle without the
help of all citizens of every age and
condition.
How to help will be demonstrated
at the Canadian tuberculosis Exhi-
bition which illustrates the New
Golden Rule-Don't give Consump-
ton to others and don't let others
give it to you This is entirely possible
if all the people will only learn and
practice few simple rules about
consumption. Then this disease
would each year cause fewer and
fewer deaths.
Consumption is not inherited, but
is spread chiefly through the germ or
seed contained in the sputum (spiD
or moist particles coming from the
throat and lungs of the consumptive.
Consumption is conveyed to well
people largely by consumptives who
spit carelessly, or who are not clean
ly about their person.
There is no danger in the breath of
consumptive or being near him.
The surest prevention is to live
right, because the perfectly healthy
body is not subject to the disease.
Consumption can be cured in its
early stages-sometimes even when
more advanced. The exhibition will
show how for the sake of self, friends
and city, you are urged to visit the
exhibition and ask others to do the
same.

NAvAJos A PoLYeAMoUs TRIBE
Plural Marriages There Are Not Inter
fered with by Uncle Sam.

1t is commonly supposed that Uncle
Sam strictly forbids polygamy within
his dominions. This is a mistake
Polygamy has been practised from
time immemorial by the Navajos, and
they have no intention of giving up
the practice. Nothing has ever been
done by the government or by the In
dian agents to discourage it, Not many
of the braves have more than two
wives, although some have been
known to maintain harem of IL.
Two wives are almost as common 81

they scrap" Then the husband sep

BILE on opposite sides of a butte or
small mesa. Each is strictly forbidden
to leave her side of the separating
landmark. 1t is feared, however, that
this prohibition is not always obeyed
and there are doubtless many hair
pulling scraps that no one but the
jackrabbits and papooses witness.

that it would be a cold day when
Roosevelt voluntarily gave up public

Attractions at Valentine Theatre, To
ledo, Week of March Twenty
Second.

The greatest living pianist of the
day, Paderewski, will appear at the
Valentine Theatre Thursday, March
25th. This will be. without question,
the foremost musical event of the
season and will assemble representa-
tives of music and culture from this
entire section of the state. There
is no longer any question but that
Paderewski is the greatest master of
the piano living and that not to hear
him is to miss hearing the most in
spring and artistic interpreter of
piano music. His tour this season
has been a greater triumph than
ever before. Such was the enthusia-
asm he created in New York that he
was forced to give large extra num-
ber of concerts there in order to
satisfy the demands of the public.
Were it not for prior contracts he
would have been detained in the
East for the entire season by the
many requests for return concerts.
Both the general public and the
students of music conceded that
Pederewski's mastery is more COM
pelling in it's influence over his au-
diences than ever before.
