promptly turned in. Had the door
OF the room been open the fire would
have gained headway and it is be-
lieved the structure would have been

LAST NIGHT
City Council Is Neck Deep
in Tide-Flats -Pearsall
Makes Speech

Suggesting that the work be not &C.
cepted for reason of the many de-
fects, and recommending that $25, 200
be refunded on the guarantee fund
under the belief that the $95, 900 bond
and the $1,000 guarantee was suffi-
cient, the city council last night took
up one Of the most important city
matters in reference to the tide flat
fill district. After discussing the
question for some time, the matter
was finally referred to the finance
committee.
Pearsali Speaks.
The only break in the regular pleas
ant routine of affairs occurred when
Councilman Pearsall referred to the
dismissal Of Joe Searles, q former po-
liceman. In addressing the council,
Pearsal referred to Searles as one of
the Oldest men on the force and init.
mated that II change should be
made a younger man on the force and
not Searles should have suffered.
Pearsall said that there was prac.
tically no explanation from the chief
of police other than the report re-
Gently rendered to Searles to the ef-
feet that he must be laid off to cut
down expenses. In talking to the
council Pearsall said that it was his
opinion that younger MIN on the
force and not Searles should have
been laid off In discussing the sub
tect Pearsall said that he had no in
tention to create trouble in the po-
lice department, but inferred that
good and sufficient reason be given
by the mayor and police department
why Searles was dismissed.
The matter was referred to the po-
lice committee.
Leave of absence was granted En-
gineer Ewart to attend the convention
of the Society for Municipal I'm
provement at Dallas, Texas
A protest signed by seventy resi-
dents of the fill district was read. OBJ
lection was made that the work was
not according to contract and that the
work was a damage rather than an
improvement. It was filed.
Resolution for laying a sidewalk

Plants That Shoot Arrows.

The arrows are crystal needles of
oxalate Of lime. They are Of microscope
ic Dimensions. and they are shot from
minute capsule shaped bodies found
in the tissues Of such plants as the
Indian turnip and the Polynesian taro.
An extraordinary spectacle may be
viewed In the field Of the microscope
when the bonds" contained in a drop
of taro pulp begin to discharge their
arrows. Sometimes only one or two
needles and sometimes groups OF four
to ten were discharged at once. the
bomb recoiling as the projectiles left
it. 1t has been suggested that the
intense burning and pricking sensa-
lions experienced in chewing such
plants as those just mentioned are due
to the release and discharge of these
crystal arrows when the plant tissues
are crushed in the mouth.-Harper's

THE INQUISITiyE MAN.
His Curiosity Was Eased, Though Hi

His Curiosity Was Eased, Though His
Feelings Were Mansied.
i business man in Boston said to a
reporter: "a few days before an cleo
ton a little incident happened which
mortified me deeply. 1t happened in
this way: You see, had some bust
ness to transact with one of the candi-
dates for the legislature, and, as it
was something important, / was fore
ed to go out to his house to see him.
1t was quite late when l got there, and
l guess he had gone to bed. At any
rate, the servant who opened the door
showed me into the parlor to wait for
his master. I was obliged to wait
amused myself looking at the pictures
and other ornaments about the room.
ION the center table, among books
and other bric-a-brac, stood a big fancy
decanter filed with liquor which look
ed like whisky. 1t was curious look
ing decanter, and on one side was
some fancy lettering which could not
make out Being rather curious to find
out what it said, lifted the decanter
up from the table and tipped it up SO
that the light fell on the lettering. 1t
said, IF you touch me I'll tell
Curious, wasn't 1t? But, sure
enough, it did tell, for I had scarcely
had time to read the lettering when my
ears were greeted with the tones Of
Johnny Get Your Cum There was a
music box hidden in the bottom of the
decanter, and when it was tipped the
machinery started and the music be-
gan. You can judge for yourself how
surprised and chagrined I was, for I
had never seen the master of the house
before and he would have a fine opin-
ion Of me for my meddling qualities.
Right in the middle of the tune he
walked into the parlor and gave me a
curious smile when he heard that mu-
sic box. It seemed as If it would new
err stop. 1 tried to make some sort Of
apology, but made a bull of it, I know,
though now I can not think for the life
Of me what said. He saw how con-
fused was and laughed it off, saying
that it was an oddly he had found in
