SECOND AND THIRD WARDS.

SECOND AND THIRD WARDS.
The people Of the second and third
wards must be alive to their own in
terest and pat good men IN the
council so they may look after the
wants Of their constituents. The
taxpayers OF these two wards have
the same rights as those of other
wards, but they will get no recog-
milton unless their members of the
council have the ability and the
energy to secure the things needed,
A good mayor, it is true, Is import
ant, but no more so than the mem
bers Of the council TO have an
up-to-date city there should be no
dead men in the municipal body. If
men have not the time or the ability
to look after the public business they
should not become candidates. The
people of the first and second wards
understand these things and always
put forward strong men and they
look after the wants of their part of
the city.
Public work in the third and
fourth wards Is turned off with a
lick Gnd promise, For instance,
down on Sixth street, not far from
the bridge, the water, instead Of be-
ing drained into the river Is let
through the sidewalk to flood priv
ate property and do great damage
to taxpayers. The flood waters from
a great distance up the street, and
rlgo from the bridge are disposed Of
Rs mentioned This ls only one I'm
stance out Of many which could be
named, such as the terrible CON
dition Of various streets caused by
constant neglect, lack Of fire plugs to
be used In case Of fire, thereby caus-
ing great damage to the property Of
citizens, the filthy conditions OF gut
ters ana alleys as well as streets
generally, thus exposing the people
TO the danger of diseases which come
from these sources.
This matter Is now in the hands
OF the people and they should find
capable men to fiji the positions that
will be vacant on the council The
voters of each ward should unite,
and regardless of faction, see to It
that men are elected to represent
them In our municipal government
Not only must they select able men
but they must be pledged TO do the
needed work so as to insure the best
interest Of the taxpayers and citizens.

A Destructive Fire.

On Friday night of last week de-
structive fire occurred at the home
OF Mr., and Mrs, c. G, Coutant, 744
South Sixth street, which destroyed
the building and most OF the person
nj property. The loss was in the
neighborhood Of $4,000, insured for
500.
The origin of the fire was either
from the main chimney of the resi-
dence or from the electric wires.

room and one bed room was saved,
but the clothing, table linen, silver
ware and china, as well as family
storee, including large quantity
OF preserved fruits, were burned. In
the second story there were many
valuable articles, consisting of fam
fly souvenirs, fancy needlework.
and clothing; all Of which were lost,
as the fire reached that part of the
house first

came promptly 70 the rescue and
rendered valuable service. rhey also
wish to express their heartfelt
thanks TO the many friends who Of
fered them homo after the fire.

Lean.
Without doubt one of the most
thoroughly successful masquerade
dancing parties given in this city for
several years was the one held at the
Coliseum rink Monday evening". Nov
ember 1. The affair was in charge
of four of the Grants Pass ladies and
one lone gentleman, who worked in
perfect harmony to give to their
friends dance to be remembered
with pleasure in the future. The
invitations sent out were very unique
and inspired everyone with interest
to attend the "Punkin Maskerade"
on "Octobur thurty-secInd. Ar
irving at the hall the scene repre-
sented a miniature forest, with jack
o'lanterns grinning from among the
trees and different parts of the room.
In the center was "a large three-faced
monster, with red lights flashing
from his eyes, and during the even
ing the lights were turned off leav-
ing only the pumpkin faces casting
weird, ghostly light over the as
sembled throng. Shortly after $3.50
the guests began to arrive and the
scene of beauty, interspersed with
the ridiculous, comic and elaborate
was enough to keep the delighted
spectators guessing until the masks
were removed. The Dean orchestra
had been engaged to furnish the
music for the evening and promptly
at o'clock the enticing strains of
the grand march sounded through
the large hall, and fully 65 mask
ed couples took their places and
went through the different figures
carried out by the leader. The
dancing continued until 1920, when
another march was called and every
masker requested to take his
place in the same while three gentle
men, chosen from the spectators as
judges, made their selection of the
best sustained characters. The
maskers formed in a circle and the
judges announced their selections
and those chosen were called to the
center of the room and requested to
unmask, the lady revealing herself
as Miss lnez Howard, in the guise
of a cowboy girl and Roubaix Richey
as Spanish matadore. Miss How
ard received beautiful hand-paint-
ed plate and Mr.. Richey a box of Op-
timo cigars. Mr.. Richey does not
smoke but declares he intends to en-
gage room at the hospital and
learn Immediately. At 1890 the
masks were removed and the remain
der of the evening up to 1:15 o'clock
was one continued round of pleasure.
Besides the unusually large num-
ber of maskers, the hall was crowded
with spectators and those having the
dance in charge received many COM
pliments on the complete success OF
their undertaking, Much praise is
also due to the young people who so
ably assisted in making the party
success by the large number of we'll
sustained characters and splendid
costumes. The Dean orchestra was
at Its best and furnished splendid
music and as the last strains of the
Home, Sweet Home" sounded
through the hall the merry throng
departed for that haven of rest. tired
but happy and anxious for another
dancing party just as pleasant as
this one

Austria's Gold Dinner Set

The Hofburg in Vienna possesses a
magnificent gold dinner service which
according to a Paris contemporary is
not rivaled by any royal house. 1t was
last used during the visit of the kaiser
and kaiserin to Vienna. The plates,
the dishes, the spoons, knives and forks
are all of solid gold, save the epergnes,
which are of silver gilt. Even these are
valued at $500 leach. The value of
the whole service is something fabu-
lous
The service is first mentioned in the
inventory of the Austro-Hungarian i'm
perial treasures toward the end of the
eighteenth century, and it is probable
that it was made about that time
The greater part of this famous serv-
Ice belongs to Austria, and was made in
Lombardy. which. at the period of its
fabrication, belonged to Austria The
other part, ii seems was made in Paris
some time after the Lombard work.
The goldsmith's art, as seen in these
treasures, is, we are told, unknown to-
day, and on some of the chefs d'oeuvre
the goldsmiths were engaged for more
than IL years. Among the rulers of the
earth who have eaten from this service
was Napoleon, when he resided at
Schoenbrunn.
The service dor" is sufficient for 100
guests, the number which sat down
with the kaiser. The tablecloth is
woven of one piece, and the design is a
succession of the Austrian imperial
Globe.

Elder Trees Brighten Witches

The Selborne Magazine contains some
interesting notes on the elder tree.
Country people speak of 1t as "the
witches tree" and plant it near farm
buildings and dairies to keep off
witches. They also say that the roots
should never come near a well, still
less grow into it, or the water will be
spoiled. Evelyn's opinion was also
unfavorable He says: II do by no
means commend the scent of it, which
is very noxious to the air. We learn
from Biesius that a certain house in
Spain, seated among many elder trees,
diseased and killed nearly all its in
habitants, which, when at last they
were grubbed up. became a very
healthy and wholesome place." Cattle
scarcely touch the elder and the mole
is driven away by the scent Carriers
often place branches on their horses
heads to keep off flies. Nothing will
grow well in the company of the elder.
and when it has been removed and all
its roots carefully grubbed up, it is
some few years before the ground be-
comes perfectly sweet and good for
anything. The berries, besides feeding
the birds, make excellent country wine
delicious with soda water in summer,
or taken hot In winter; the wood is
particularly good for skewers. and the
curious Jews ear fungus grows on ell
der stumps. A species of elder in the
Tyrol Is covered with beautiful scarlet
berries"
