walks remove the same. If the own
Ell or occupant fails to do this, the
street commissioner will remove or
cause the same to be done and assess
the cost to the property, and make
return to the city council. The city
auditor is to publish said assessment
and give notice that at the regular
meeting in April those who have been
assessed may appear and he heard
in the matter. Within ten days af-
ter the assessment has been approved
by the council, a certified copy is to
be filed with the city treasurer by
the auditor, and the assessment is
then due and payable to the city, and
if not paid within sixty days there
after a penalty of ten per cent is to
be added. The assessments are to be
paid in the same n as sidewalk
assessments are now collected, and
'ments are made may be sold for said
assessments. Any person or per-
sons who shall fail, neglect or refuse
to remove the snow or ice from their
walks shall upon conviction be fined
in a sum not less than SIS nor more
than $50. The ordinance is sufficient
ly stringent and if enforced the side
walks of Mitchell ought to be kept
reasonably clean this winter. The
above ordinance was placed on its
first reading.
Another ordinance, $50, was plac-
ed ON it's first reading. 1t refers to
the definition of noxious, dangerous
and unhealthful vegetation and pro-
vides for the destruction Of the same.
These are sunf1owers, rag weed,
cockel burrs, tumbleweeds. thistles,
dandelions. p%lantain, sweet clover,
wild morning glory. black mustard
and pig weed. None Of these weeds
will be allowed, under the ordinance,
to grow on any property In the city.
and if the street commissioner dis
covers any such he is to give notice
through the official paper, and the
weeds must be destroyed within a
week; if it is not done the city will
destroy, or cause the same to be de-
stroyed and the expense will be
charged up to the property, and the
same procedure will be followed as
in the snow and ice ordinance. Any
person or persons permitting these.
weeds to grow upon their property
shall, upon conviction, be fined not
less than SIS nor more than $50.

This brings the total amount APP
portioned up to $56,10O, an increase
of a little over $4,000 over the pre-
vious year, this being due principal
ly to the new W bonds that were
sold this year, and which increase
the interest.
1t is evident from the ordinance
introduced that the city council pro-
poses to have the sidewalks cleaned
of snow and ice this winter, and in
this ordinance is laid the founda-

who are slow about cleaning off their

DIR. VIM. e. Barker's Experience
London.
(From the Rochester Times)

GAOu kAS 4SONu0SSC1 xlQS0J
Half a century ago there was no
city in the world where an eminent
specialist mad the opportunities that
were presented to one in London; re-
alizing this fact DR.. Barker, after
from H%eidelburg, located
in London. His practice grew 30
rapidly that at the end of five years
he established the largest practice of
any physician in that city. His prac-
tice was confined to chronic cases
only in the treatment of rheumatism
catarrh, kidney and bladder diseases.
He used one never-failing prescrip-
tion-this same prescription he had
written thousands of times; and he
had seen patients come into his Office
on crutches. who said they had been:
troubled with rheumatism for Is and
20 years, and after they had used
this special prescription for two
or three days they would come walk
ing to his office, as nimbly as a school
boy, and thank him for the good he
had done them. The Doctor said in
an interview that one man about As
years old came to him n day and
said he had been injured while work.
ling at the carpenter trade about twen-
ty years before, and had suffered con-
stantly since with kidney trouble. He
had tried everything to get relief, but
nothing seemed to do him any good.
He asked the Doctor if he really
knew anything that would cure him
and he told him of a never-failing
remedy for all chronic cases like his.
He wrote him a prescription and told
him to take it for a week and then
come and let him Know how he was
getting along. This man came back
to his Office in just four days and said
he. had not felt as we'll in his life.
He also stated that his daughter,
whom he had taken out of school be-
cause her eyes were too weak to
study, and she could hardly see from
one of them at all; she had been
treated by -four eye specialists with
out relief, and after he had taken
this prescription for two days he says
he saw it was helping him SO much
he let her take some of it, and to
their great surprise she improved
wonderfully almost from the first
dose. He told him that it was only
a weeks time after she commenced
Ito take the medicine until she could
see as we'll as ever and was able to
return to school.
1T was not until after hundreds of
(such remarkable cases had been
treated by DR.. Barker with this same
prescription that he was prevailed up
on in the interest of humanity to al
low the wonderful prescription to be
put up so that every sufferer could
have it at a very small cost. The pub
lie can now secure this prescription
under the name of %bloodine, at drug
stores, or The Bloodine Laboratories
Boston, Mass. will supply a six weeks
treatment (six botties) for $3.50; 90
cents a bottle, trial bottle and book

[ The enumerators working Hn the
special census of Bismarck turned
in their reports Wednesday evening
to the city commission and the fig
ures totalled to 5,199. The work OF
enumeration was under the directlon
Of representative business men of the
city, each ward being given Ito the
direction of one man and he super
vising the work Of the men under him.
The work was done thoroughly and
there is little chance for a mistake
to have crept in.
The reason for the taking of the
census was the desire On the part of
a large number of male residents OF
the city for the establishment of an
Elks lodge here. 1t is necessary for
a town to have at least 5000 people
before a lodge of the above order
can be established. It appears that
there were certain interests that
were opposed to the measure and they
have put obstacles in the way of Sc
curing the census.
Sidney Register, who was appoint
ed to the position of census director
bv the commission some time ago,
and whose appointment was opposed
by a number of men interested in
securing an Elks lodge here, cert1-
fed Wednesday evening that he had
received six books from the enumer-

and suggested some phases in con-

toward the establishment of civic

= Mrs. Quain, as spokesman for the
fact that there was cmfweyptaoim

fact that there was the nucleus for
a. civic center in the work that has
been done at the court house square
and also from the fact that the new
McCabe M. e. church Is an ornament
to that particular corner: -: ,,
-. II. was suggested, that the city
might be able to obtain the entire
block fronting the court house. and
have the new city hall face the coun:.

make a fine street and the matter
has been taken under ,consid eration
by the commissioners.
