WILL CUT COME BACK
CLAUSE FROM ORDINANCE

AS the clause rquiring restaurant
men to put all "come backs" in the
garbage can seemed to make a hitch
in the enforcement of the garbage or
dinance, the legislation committee will
make a special report to the council
today in which it will advise that the
clause be stricken out of the garbage
ordinance.
Under the recent ruling of the court
the elimination of this clause will give
Alexander the right to collect garbage
from the hotels and restaurants. AL
exander doesn't particularly want that
right; he would just as soon have Dur
bins pig feeders collect it; but when
he has the legal right the board of
public works can force him to do it.

Walter Kitchener at Disadvantage.

Walter Kitchener at Disadvantage.
Gen. Walter Kitchener, who is sta
toned at Bermuda, is a brother of
Lord Kitchener, and this fact has
worked against him rather than for
him. He is considered a clever SOL
der in England, and at the time of
the war in South Africa it was
thought that he would receive an i'm.
portant post that would become va
cant. He was passed over and his
brother, Lord Kitchener, was asked
for the reason. 1T should have gone
to my brother" he said, but If had
given it to him everybody would have
yelled faYOritism' at the top of their
voices, so I picked someone else"
Walter Kitchener was expected at
Cape Town at railway station once
when an old lady rushed In excitedly
and asked at what platform Lord
Kitchener was expected to arrive. No
one seered to know anything about
his visJ' until it finally dawned upon
the staff officer that she had heard of
the arrival Of his brother. He IN
formed her that this was only Kitch-
ener that was expected. 81 call it a
shame that this man, whoever he may
be, should be allowed to use Lord
Kitchener's name; the government
ought to do something about it," she
said, stalking majestically out of the
station.
