Belle Cook Snavely

n ONSAAt OAAJ NNoAsNA "a
Lucien E. and Florilla Cook, was
born at Monticello, Howard
County, Mo-, June 8, 1865 and
with her parents moved to this
county some years later.
She was married to James
Snavely, a we'll known and pop
ular travelling grocer salesman
OF Carrollton July 26 1886, and
To the union was born three
children, Misses Urcel and Paul
ley and son James, all of Kansas
CITY where the family has resid-
eQ for 8 years after a residence
id Carrollton of 20 years.
Belle Snavely died at her
home in Kansas City May 13 of
acute appendicitis after an oper-
alton and was brought to this
city for interment in the city
cemetery by her daughters and
son Saturday. Services at the
home of her mother, Mrs. L. E.
Cook were held by Rev. W. L.
Meyers.
Perhaps there was no better
known young lady in society in
this city during her young wo-
manhood than Belle Cook, and
surely there was none fuller Of
vigor, enjoyment of life and
READY adjustment to surrounding
conditions. She was ever jolly,
sympathetic and accommodating
and possessed of more than or.
dinary education and talent and
accounted among the very gooG
looking people of the commun'
lity.
A stroke of paralysis which af
fiicted her husband some years
ago and from which he hal
never recovered, prevented hin
from being present at the obse
lquies. He and his children an,
thiRister will reside together i
Kansas City where his daughter
and son have good positions
Perhaps no mother in the stat
could boast rightfully of hand
somer daughters than could Mrs
Snavely and of them she wa
justly proud.
In addition to a large numbe
of friends of the family, Mrs
John Moore and Mrs. VIM E
White of Glasgow and Mrs. Gee

THE PROPOSITION
What We Are to Get For Light
If The Franchise is
Voted

III Ill lutcTficW Will thV PAV
moter of the electric light and
power plant, q reporter gathered
the following as being the facts
concerning what he proposes to
put in operation in the city by
September |, if granted the
franchise for 20 years at the
election May 81. While the
points to be mentioned in this
article are not embodied in the
ordinance, it is upon them that
Mr.. R. W. Cropper, the pro-
moter, expects the citizens of
the city to vote him the long
time privilege of operating such
a plant.
He says he will put in two in
ternal combustion engines, of
fifty horse power and of the
best make, these being the next
in cost of operation to water
power; that he will generate
sufficient current night and day
to meet all requirements for
light and power; that he will
erect good poles and wires and
protect the people from any
mishap by contract with them,
intending to meet the require
ments Of the insurance commits
sion and the Public Service
Commission; that he will fur
nish ctfrent at maximum OF
12l-2c TO the city, and 10 c to
all others, meaning for the indi-
indivual 10 cents for so hours
for a 16 candle power light, but
every user of the current must
pay ataeast 81 each month, if
he has connected with the
plant, 40 matter how little cur
rent is used; if over a dollars
worth, then he pays the regular
rate per kilowatt hour. If one
uses a larger bulb than 16 can.
die power, his expense is great.
er, or if he has more than one
light; that he will furnish
meters to measure the amount
of electricity used by all; that
the cost Of current for electric
fans, power for sewing machines
washers, grinders and any Other
motor no matter how large Of
small, will be much less thar
for lights, the amount of cur
rent contracted for governing
the charge; that any person ma.
furnish his own fixtures, wiring
or motor and be furnished pro
mptly with current at the sam,
rate as those getting their fix
lures etc. from the company
that he will add more power a
more current to supply the de
mand is required, and use al
diligence to prevent customer
from being in the dark for
moment from the time the.
subscribe for current; that h
will forfeit $1,000 to the city an
his franchise if he fails to hav
the plant in operation within
year, or fails to supply curren
for a continuous period of NOR
than one month; that customer
will not be Disseminated fo
or against.
This is the proposition whicl
the promoter Mr.. Croppe
makes to each and every vote
and on which he relies fc
unanimous support of the ol
dinance for a franchise bein
granted him for twenty years
The ordinance authorizing tn
city council to contract with Mi
Cropper for a minimum Of $4S
worth of lights each year for
period Of ten years, is separat
and distinct from the one pre-
viding the franchise. If thi
ordinance is put into effect, it
done bysa vote Of the, !, citizen
and cannot be revised, abrogate
or revoked for Ten years. as
