A resolution was recently presented to the City Council asking for the re- funding of the s15.ooO street tax which had been collected from the people of this city for walking on the paved streets. As the refunding of this money would cause considerable trouble tu case 1t was decided that 1t should be returned to those who so graciously paid 1t into the city treasury. it has been suggested that the entire fund be paid back in a lump to charity.

PRAISE FOR PEARY
BY NOTED SCIENTIST

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.-"That dis
match from Peary means that he has
analIy achieved what he has so long
been after" said Henry Gannett. an
old friend of Peary, and vice presi-
dent of the National geographic
society.
IT am awfully glad that he has
reached the north pole, whether he
was the first to reach there or not. He
certainly worked hard enough to get
there. Such a dispatch from Peary
would signify only his own achieve
ment. Even IL Cook was there first.
whatever he left there would have
f,oated miles away. 1 always thought
that Peary had the best chance of all
the men who have gone out in the
effort to reach the north pole"
Peary is personally popular with the
scientists in Washington. and a move
ment will be launched at once to give
him a rousing reception when he gets
back to this country. Prof Willis L.
Moore, the president of the National
geographic society. and Professor Can
nett will confer tomorrow regarding
what action should be taken by the
society.

Keepers of the zoo rushed to the
scene and stood stupef1ed for an instant
when they saw the lion affectionately

little girl. However, they soon caught
the child and took her out of harms

A remarkable coincidence of the af-
fair is that but few moments be-

heavy bars of his cage in an effort to
reach another beast with which he had

The animal several years ago killed
