To Whom it MAY Concern.

We have at present on our light
and water ledgers a number of &C
counts which are more than two
months over due. We take it for
granted that every consumer of light
and water knows whether he has
paid his bills or not and this is only
for those who feel guilty.
With our present Office force and
the increased amount of work we
are not able to call on each one to
collect these bills and we also have
an ordinance which requires the bills
to be paid at the city clerks Office.
We can hardly conceive of family
who are so busy that some member
cannot find time to come to the
clerks Office once in two months and
attend to these bills, and should
there be a case of that kind the U
S. mail is always open for the trans
mission of checks. We have quite a
long list of patrons whose bills we
collect through the different banks
and I doubt not that there are q
number Of others who have bank &C.

Endeavorers Raise Money.

The Christian Endeavor social at
the Christian church Friday night
was largely attended and fine pro-
gram rendered. The social was held
for the purpose of receiving the
money pledged by the members of
the c. E. toward the Improvement of
the basement. They have pledged
800 for this purpose and have al
ready raised $50 of this. The men,
bers who had earned a half dollar
toward this fund were present with
their money and in many instances
an original verse was read telling
how the sum was earned. S22 was
received in this manner. However,
many who have earned their half
dollars were unable to be present, or
to send their money, so the amount
will be made larger.
The C. w. B. M. served ice cream
and cake during the intermissions
of the program and realized a neat
sum from that feature.

Summer in Yellowstone.

Misses Verna Bailey and Elsie
Heiden expect to leave the Sth of
June on an extended western trip.
They will stop for short visit in
Pocatella, Idaho, where an uncle of
Miss Bailey's resides, and also in
Laramie, Wyoming, where Miss
Heiden has relatives. Their destin-
alton, however, is Yellowstone Ma
tional park, where they will spend
the entire three months the park is
open. They will assist as mattresses
in Yellowstone camp in Gardner,
Montana, one of the entrances to
the park. Miss Bailey's sister, Mrs.
Burton Bailey, formerly Miss Grace
Bailey of this city, resides in Gard
ner, Mr.. Bailey being in the employ
of the park management. The young
ladies will also be able to visit the
Burton Bailey family during their
extended stay. The park opens
June 18th.

Lock Up.

Local hardware dealers say there
has been an unprecedented sale OF
padlocks, keys and other fastenings
for garages, barns and other build
ings from which numerous thefts
have been reported. Up to the pres
ent time even merchants of the
town have become careless with
their door fastenings, but no store
now in the city probably exists
where there are not adequate door
fastenings. Where trespassing is
invited by careless closing of store,
barn and garage, the owner can on
ly lock up after the horse is stolen,
but the proverbial ounce of precau-
tion has been taken lately and it is
hoped that breaking and entering
will be stopped in this city. Law
breakers there have always been and
will ever be. In the day of the
horse and carriage, owners frequent
ly found their horse in state of
exhaustion in the morning, having
been stolen out and driven all night.
In this later day it is the automo-
bile instead of the horse.

WEBSTER CITY PROOF.
Should Convince Every Webster City
Reader.

The frank statement of neigh
Dor, telling the merits of remedy,
bids you pause and believe. The
same endorsement by some stranger
far away commands no belief at all.

ster City citizen testifies. Read and
be convinced.

kidneys and loins and the kidney Sc
cretions were irregular and painful.

relief until I began taking Doan's
Kidney Pills. When I saw that they
were helping me, I continued using
them and was greatly relieved. l

plished much in a short time. Her
friends will wish her success in her
summers work.

Cook House on Wheels.

The crew of men who are ditch
ing in the vicinity of Homer about
ten miles southeast of this city,
have been unable to find accommo-
dations for cooking and eating so
they have had erected a fine kitchen
or cook room on wheels. 1t is now
finished and left Friday for the
scene of operations for the summer.
The room was erected on a strong
pair of axles made of oak with
broad iron wheels and is 12x15 feet
in dimensions, ceiled inside and well
finished, having a door and two win
dows we'll screened from flies. A
stove, tables and chairs were INSTALL
ed and an ideal camping cook room
completed. The building of this
cook room together with the mater
ials cost in the neighborhood of SIS.
Such wagons built of lighter mater
ials are frequently built in the east
for camping expeditions and furnish
an ideal method of travelling over
the country while at the same time
furnishing enjoyment of the out OF
door pleasures Of camp life.

Giants and Athletics Picnic.

The spelling contest in the COM
mercial department of the high
school was brought to a finish Fri
day afternoon when the Athletics
spelled down the Giants, Marley
Sweazey performing the final feat
the score standing six to six. The
agreement had been made at the be.
ginning of the contest between the
two divisions that which ever was
the winning side should entertain
the other at a picnic. The tie score
determined that each should partici-
pate in the preparations for the pic
mic and it was successfully carried
out last night in the vicinity Of
Hogsback. Owing to the heavy work
Of the season, no teacher could be
persuaded to accompany the pic
nickers so they enjoyed the balmy
evening by themselves in the woods.

Many PARENTS AND
FRIENDS ATTEND
Pupils of the Grades Give Fine Pro-
grams-Essays, Songs, Reel
tations, Etc.

The pupils of the grades gave
their spring programs Friday af-
ternoon and many parents and
friends were present. The programs
were all very fine and were largely
composed of essays, recitations and
songs pertaining to the state and its
trees, flowers, etc. In every room
there were solos by boys who are
taking instructions upon various in
struments, violins, comets, clarinets,
etc. These were in most cases ex-
ceptionally well rendered and are
deserving of particular mention.
This week will be devoted en-
tirely to examinations and many
anxious hearts will beat beneath
dress and jacket until the outcome
of each "exam" is known. There is
now just one purpose in life for ev-
cry pupil of the grades and that is
to "pass." ...

rcounts and if they will just call u:
by phone we will gladly place then
on cur list and leave their receipts
at their bank, thereby eliminating
the tiresome trip to the city hall OF
the trouble of us calling on them
with the bill.
1t is against our wishes to increase
the expenses of our Office by employ
ing an extra collector each month,
but it is our desire to get in all the
revenue due our institutions and
make them a paying proposition,
and if the taxpayers, or in other
words the owners of these plants,
wish them kept up they will have
to pay for the service the same as
they would for any other business.
There is an ordinance in effect
which states that in cases where the
bills are not paid in a reasonable
time the services may be discontin-
ued till bills are paid.
1t is not pleasant duty to enforce
this ordinance but it will have to be
done soon if we do not hear from
he delinquents.
Trusting that we will have the
cooperation of every one in trans
acting the business of the owners of
;hese municipal plants, we leave the
natter to the guilty parties to take
action.

ONE MEDIATION
CLOUD REMOVED
Consul Silliman Reaches Mexican
Capital in Safety.

Washington, D. c., May 23.-A
threatening complication to the me-
diation conference at Niagara Falls
was removed yesterday when def
mite word reached the state depart
ment that Vice Consul John R. Sill
man, arrested at Saltillo and long
sought for, had arrived safely at
Mexico City, accompanied by the
British vice consul at Saltillo, Mr..
Macmillan.
The news of Silliman's safety be-
came known at the moment when
Secretary Bryan was making reports
ready from refugees that Silliman
had been executed on May Is by the
federals at Saltillo. Great relief was
expressed by the cabinet members,
several of them said it removed one
of the most dangerous features in
the situation.
While Silliman himself is safe,
there remains several very grave
features connected with his arrest.
Unofficial reports have indicated
that he was placed under arrest
while acting as United States con-
sui, was imprisoned, tried as a spy
and condemned to death. Also that
the United States consulate was en-
tered, the official archives being TAX
en-, including the code Of the state
department.
The negotiations going on at Nj
agara Falls received the very earn
est attention Of administration offic-
ials throughout the day. Several ex-
changes occurred between the Amer
can delegates and the officials here,
and the situation was relieved after
the cabinet meeting at which furth-
er advices went forward to the
American delegates.
