The city council held busy and
lengthy session last night, during
which many matters of interest re-
ceived attention, a number of new or
dinances being introduced, probably
the most important of which were the
one providing for the execution of the
contract awarded by the board of bond
trustees for the construction of some
thing more than SIS, 900 worth of storm
and sanitary sewers and the one pro-
viding for the establishment OF a free
library and authorizing the levyinE of
a tax for the maintenance of the in
stitution.
COMMITTEE PRESENT.
The committee having in charge the
matter of devising ways and means for
exterminating mosquitoes in the city
OF Pensacola appeared before the coun-
ell in body and asked for an appro-
priation from the council for the pur-
pose Of aiding in the prosecution of the
work, and after some discussion, the
request was referred to the finance
committee and the board of health for
them to arrange the matter and report
back to the council, after which the
council will recommend that the f.
nance committee allow as much as is
possible. 1t was explained that just at
this time the council is short of funds,
but it was also shown that it is the
desire of that body to aid in every
way possible the eradication Of the
pest.
The committee last night was headed
by Mayor Reilly, who briefly stated
the object of the appointment of the
committee to appear before the coun-
ell. Others who addressed the body on
the subject and who urged the neces-
sity Of Kidding the city Of mosquitoes
were: DR.. Pierpont, chairman of the
county medical association; DIR. War

EaeIno Death.

Why should we consent even to the
semblance of lack of courage in our
pagan trappings of woe at every
death? We may grieve that we are
left behind: that comrade whose

life make half our Joy should pass
beyond our grasp. But II we believe
that death is going to Justify itself
as life has justified itself. there il
no right or reason in emphasizing
grief. We were made to go onward.

All, Of Modern Fiction.

Evils OF Mooern fIStions
The fiction hero Of the day 10 said
to be weak and unheroic. and the
charge Is made that the women are
the cause. There is no doubt" said
a literary agent recently. that heroes
of wide class Of writer's are deca-
dent and unheroic. They do nothing
worth doing. They are weak and al
most effeminate. and lack strength
of character. This is not the authors
fault. It seems to be the natural 20
quence Of the conception Of the up

imagine any decent. old-time hero put

authors. too. seem to think that they
get strength into their stories by deal

UNDERWOOD
 AT PULLMAN Addressed Large Audience
 Saturday DWELLS UPON TARIFF Expresses Himself as Highly Pleased at Recent Victories of Democrats in Several States-Has
 Great Fight to Make
DWELLS UPON TARIFF

Cullman, November 12.-(Speclai.)-- Notwithstanding the fact that there was some little misunderstanding as to the time that o. ". Underwood would reach Cullman, the distinguished Ala bamian was greeted by large and en- thusiastic audience at the courthouse at o'clock yesterday afternoon. The meeting was held under the aus- pices of the Underwood Democratic club of Cullman.
 MT. Underwood was introduced by Hon. A. A. Griffith. president of the Underwood club. who In few remarks presented MT. Underwood to the peo- pie here as the next President of the United States. In speaking of the prominence that had been given his name as the next democratic nomiae. for President, MT. Underwood said: q have yet a great fight to make as the democratic leader In the House of Representatives, and do not feel that it is right and justice to the democratic party for me to announce myself as an aspirant to the nomination for the pres idency at this time, even were l inclined to do so because of attend ing engagements with the people in delivering addresses, hecessitated my absences at Washington where the req, fight Is yet to be won. l have not announced my intentions as being candidate for the nomination before the next convention nor do I intend to do so of myself, but should my party want me to do so I will only be too glad to acceed to their wishes.
 One of the main things promised by the democrats, said MT. Underwood, was a reduction In the tariff. Notwithstand-
 ing the overwhelming republican ma jority in the United States Senate, the farmers free list bill was passed, pu, was vetoed by the President.
 The main feature of the address yes- terday was confined to the tariff ques- ton. It was a clear, forceful and log ical discussion along this line and not withstanding statistics, was listened to eagerly and intently by the audience.
 When approached by a reporter and asked what he thought of the recent victories won by the democrats in sev- eral states, he expressed himself as highly pleased. with an assurance that the party would certainly win in the coming campaign.
