4Sw ell Takes Final Ac-
y ii in Matter Pending
for Six Months

After discussion of various tentative
remedial measures for the increase of
revenue in the water department and the
conservation of the municipal water sup
lply that began in the early days of last
spring, the city council voted last evening
to adopt the recommendations incorpor-
ated in special report submitted by the
aldermanic water committee. A second
conference with the granite manufac-
turers preceded final action on the report
and the finishing touches to the. new
schedule were not laid on until each Sec
tion had been thoroughly discussed. Nu-
merous changes are to found in the
revised schedule and there is a feeling
that they viii combine to solve the prob
lem OF conservation, put the revenue on
a level where the department will realize
az least fair return on the sum invest
ed in the water supply plant, and which
is of equal Importance, the revision will
eliminate some of the glaring defects
that cropped out when the council start
ed in few months ago to investigate
the workings of the water department in
years past. The motion to adopt the re-
port was made by Alderman Cook and
seconded by Alderman Ross. 1t was
carried without opposition and provisions
are to be made for issuing printed copies
OF the schedule as soon as possible.
For more than an hour a committee of
representative manufacturers represent
ing the association, joined with the coun-
eillors in discussing the proposed rates.
Naturally the committee was there to
keep the proposed increases down to
minimum and its spokesmen made known
their business as soon as they arrived.
Several of the arguments advanced for
low rates on the occasion of the first
hearing a few weeks since were reiterat-
ed last evening, although on a whole it
may be said that the visiting delegation
showed disposition to conciliate some
of the more essential differences that had
arisen. Among those who attended the
hearing were: Alexander Duncan, Secre-
tary H. p. Hinman, Stephen Rizzi, George
Robins. William =. Murray, John p.
c. W. Mcmillan and II. d.
Stevens At various times Messrs. Dun
can. Murray. Hinman, Jones, Magnaghi
and Rizzi spoke earnestly on the water
question. Questions were freely asked
and answered. Speaking for the manu-
facturers. Mr.. Duncan said he thought
there would be no objections to a s25
rate for gang saws, similar rate for
iorble polishing beds and IS for sharpen
ng machines.
The fiat rates adopted affecting gran
te plants are as follows:

Don't imagine if something goes
wrong at the start,
That the efforts you make are in vain;
For many good men who have failed
at the start,
Have won when they tried it again.
Just take Horace Greely,a man known
to fame,
He from trouble was never immune;~
He worked with will to accom- plish
results,
And he founded the New York Tribune.
Geo. Washington worked against
odds at the start,
AS did Howe when he made his machine:
The Great Eli Whitney of cotton gin
fame,
Looked for years on what men called a

But still he persisted and worked out his
And got all the details arranged;
He gave to the world a perfected

And his model has never been changed.
A thought, word or deed if it's rightly
applied,
May start some ambition anew;
1t only needs courage tand purpose of
will,
To successfully carry it through.
The fall of an apple was Newton's
keynote,
Then the study of gravity came;

his worth,

There Is Plenty Of Room at The Top

[ByW. H. Dugda1el
There is plenty of room in this great
world of ours,
There is always a time and place;
For man to develop his genius and
tact,
With a method to suit every case.
But of course there are times when
perhaps he may fail,
To accomplish some object in view;
But don't get discouraged, keep On
with the job,
Let persistency carry you through.
AS the great wheels of commerce re-
volve every day,
Big industries will labor to win;
The giants of finance will strain every
Every chance for to gain taking in.
With every advantage man can con-

1t is hard for to tell what to do;
Some move you may make, may upset
all your plans,
Let frugality carry you through.

simply. as the material must be to
give the best result and they are
trimmed with little Fittings and petal
effects and with ruff1es and all that
goes to make frou-frou, for batistes
and muslins Of all sorts go hand
in hand with such finish. They are
wonderfully dainty and it is not sur
prising that they have gained their
vogue.
As is commonly the case in July, we
are hearing all sorts Of rumors as to
what the new models will be, and it
seems fairly established that we
shall see pale colored batistes in com
bination with other fabrics for autumn
costumes. An exceedingly beautiful
gown of sapphire blue liberty silk, is.

LATEST FADS
AND FANCIES
OF FASHION

TOW far the serious conditions
abroad have their reflection
in the designs, it is rather the
part Of psychology than that Of
fashion to assert, but the fact remains
that there have come some really ex-
quisite creations, but lacking alto
gether the elaboration that 50 often
has made a feature Of the French
houses designs. The loveliest, dam
test fabrics are worn-organdie is
pronounced favorite, colored organizes
are made up into marvellously attract
i've gowns for daytime wear, tulle,
simply treated, is favorite for even
ing and for dinner occasions and even
when richer materials are used, the
designs are simple. Skirts are volumi-
nously wide, but even voluminous
width does not mean bulk when thin
materials are used and the softest
fabrics are the most fashionable.
Gaiety is really at it's height in the
resorts and some Of the most fasci-
mating costumes are to be met at
dinners dances and occasions OF
similar sort. In group Of five notable
examples, only one was found Of any
material heavier than tulle or mousse
line-two were Of tulle and two we're
of the silk mousseline that is almost
equally soft and diaphanous. Flounced
skirts and tunic skirts make the rule.
