Enrique varela. premier and minister
OF war. was killed in the fight which
ensued.

lutionary leader, whose arrest was

The attack on the palace began at
half past four in the morning. Thous-
ands OF the inhabitants OF Lima ran
into the streets, alarmed by the firing.
Squads OF soldiers were ordered to fire
yolleys Into the air In order to prevent

gan running before noon.
President Billinghurst was later
taken by the rebels as prisoner to
Callao. from which port he viii be sent
into exile In foreign country.
Perr's sudden revolutionary trouble
is due principally to Billinghurst's
earnest efforts to place the finances OF
his country on sound bnsis. His
scheme for doing this involved tho
stric,eHt economics throughout the

unpopular. particularly among office

The THRICE-A-WEEk EDITION OF
The new YORK WORLD
Practically a Daily at the price Of n
Weekly. No other Newspaper in tho
world gives so much at so low price.

This is a time of great events, and
you will want the news accurately
and promptly. All the countries of
the world steadily draw closer to-
gether, and the telegraph wires bring
the happenings of every one. No
other newspaper has a service equal
to that of The World and it relates
everything fully and promptly.
The World long since established
record for impartiality, and any
body can afford its Thrice-a-Week
edition, which comes every other day
in the week, except Sunday. 1t villa
be of particular value to you now.
The Thrice-a-Week World also
abounds in other strong features.
serial stories. humor, markets, car
toons; in fact, everything that is to
be found in a first-Class daily.
The Thrice-a-Week Worlds regu-
lar subscription price is only $3.50
per year, and this pays for 1876 pa
pers. We offer this unequallea

recommend thorough sitting of this
problem and hope to see it become
in some way a municipal institution
permanent. Much could be said in
its favor but l will comment no fur
ther at this time.
In closing / would briefly recon-
mend for consideration the following
in addition to those already men
toned as a part of our labors for
1914:
First The establishment of public
drinking fountains at the principal
corners on Main street and the Boul-
evard, between the west high school
building and the east high school
Nine fountains would cost approx
mately $3.50 to $500 Can you think
of better investment as a conven-
ience and advertisement for the city?
We have the finest water on earth
we say, and we have. Why not dis
play it? We do so with our fruits,
minerals and grains, besides enjoy
the convenience and accommodate
our visitors.
Second. The enforcement of ordi-
nances and the passage of new ordi-
nances of stronger character, if nee
| essary, dealing with sanitary condi-
tions and the public health. Flies,
rats, filth of all kinds. The garbage
proposition, a modern system of in
cineration controlled, owned and OPP
Grated by the city, a more rigid en-
| forcement OF parkway ordinance and
such other things as may suggest
themselves in the future, that Ash
land may indeed be not only a Gate
way City" but a clean one, located
as it will be upon one of the greatest
highways of our nation, If not of the
world.
Our great future offering is Ash
land for health, for surroundings
beautiful, fine roads, fine water, fine
climate, life-eXtending, health-giving
mineral waters, good society, finest
of schools, churches, etc, and lastly
but very important, sanitary condi-
J tions to a degree of distinction.
| thank profoundly the loyal citi
zens of the community for their co.
operation during the year in behalf
of good government and a clean, pro.
gressive city. The ladies especially
individually and collectively, deserve
mention and praise for good service
rendered in the various departments
of the city's work. assure them OF
our appreciation of the interest man.
