ALGIERS ASKS BELT.

Commission Meeting.

At the next meeting of the Public
Belt Commission a large delegation Of
our citizens will be present TO urge the
conclusion reached at the session held
Tuesday night of the switch track COM
mittee, of which Peter S. Lawton is
chairman. Il was decided to ask the
commission TO construct a belt con-
Meeting the Grand Isle with the South.
ern Pacific railroad. The track will be
laid on the sidewalk on the river side
of Patterson street, and will in no way
interfere with the street car traffic.
The gathering was large and was
lheld in the Duyic store on Morgan
street. The discussion was informal,
everyone present expressing an opin-
ion on the most feasible plan. Warren
Johnson, consulting engineer of the
Johnson Iron Works, submitted blue
print showing the way the track could
be laid and give Algiers a part Of the
| belt service.
After all the suggestions were made
/ it was decided to have the delegation
appear before the Belt Railroad Com
mission and argue the claim of Algiers.
Peter S. Lawton presided and among
those who spoke were H. d. Stearns,
president of the Johnson Iron Works
Warren Johnson, Otto 7. Maier, vice
president and general manager of the
Grand Isle railroad; E. w. Burgis, its
geenral superintendent; W. H. Ward,
August Schabel, Charles Cieutat, 10,
seph w. Lennox and a. Spitzfaden.

In the next few weeks the Herald
will begin the publication of a new
series of twelve clever and entertain
ing articles by Kennett Harris. These

itor of large apartment. The breezy
humor, sarcasm, wit and philosophy he
exhibits in talks with his Scandinavian
assistant is extremely interesting and
readable.
Kennett Harris reputation as a writ
er of fiction and clever stories is firmly
established. He is a frequent contrib.
utor to the Saturday Evening Post and
this fact alone is sufficient proof OF the
quality Of his work.
These articles will appear one each
week and besides being very interest
ing, they are in keeping with the other
stories written by Mr.. Harris and the
readers Of the Saturday Evening Post
are familiar with his writings and no
doubt will appreciate these new stO-
ries.

PALLAoIuM's FREE ICE FUND.

A west side mother says the free ice
fund has enabled her to keep her
three-month-old baby healthy during
the hot weather, and has probably
been the means of saving its life.
The family could not, afford ice;
without it baby's milk spoiled between
meal times.
Now the ice man stops; baby is nc
longer sick and cross, but has cool
sweet milk to drink 80.
: If only this one life were saved sub
scribers would feel that the fund had
been worth while, but there are others
needing ice just as badly.
BY helping to swell the fund you are
giving to others the little necessity
without which you would consider life
unbearable. Their. appreciation will am
ply repay the kindness by making you
feel better toward all the world.
Keep the fund growing.
