President of Council Henry c. Down.
ward has sent the following open let
ter to Mayor Price. pointing out that
the Board of Health has power TO en-
force a satisfactory collection Of gar
bage:
Hon. James f. Price, Mayor:
Dear Sir:-In response to your re
quest for a personal conference 70
discuss the garbage question, l will
state in this open letter the condition
and relation of the Department of
Health. as it appears to me. City
Council has no control over the Board
y Health to direct it to take am
;pecific action. The Council can ad
rise as to what should be done, and
assist in a monetary way. but beyond
that, Council has no responsibility
This limitation OF Council was reach
"a at a recent conference AT that
time the Board Of Health was urged
to take whatever means were neces-
sary TO insure the betterment Of con-
litions il is useless to make any
more Investigations. The Board OF
Health. under your direction. can APP
ply the remedy OF men, horses and
carts believe the system Of col
lection is largely at fault by compell-
ing the collection from tackyards
The collections should be from the
curb and the garbage put in covered
receptacles. II would take One-half
the time to make the collections.
II elected to the next General AS
scmblv. I shall be glad To prepare any
bill that would give better results.
There are conflicting views in re-
gard to the department in which to
locate the responsibility in the
Council. the Street and Sewer De-
partment or in the Board OF Health.
As soon as this has been more fully
determined. il will take but an hour
or two 10 draft the bill for enact
ment Ashury Park has solved the
problem. as has also the City Of Ches-
fer. Neither one however doing
the work in the anne way. Surely,
VIC have just as capable officials here
as in those cities Permit me 20
emphasize the fact that Your Honor
and the Board of Health have now
ample power 10 enforce or to do the
proper and satisfactory collection Of
garbage.
I am. very truly yours.

Al TIE VICTORIA.

Emmy Whelen. the dainty Viennese
musical comedy star, scored a real bit
in THE Pretenders," now being shown
at the Victoria Theatre, and If ap-
plause is a criterion, then Miss
Whelen's many admirers found her
better than ever in a play that shows
the sham lives some people lead. The
plot of this new screen offering is
most unique inasmuch as it shows
how members OF various classes OF So
ciety find themselves playing the game
of "dupe" and when things comes to a
clash, then "plebian hosts with royal
serviteurs" find that shamming is a
poor game. Still it paid, for the hero

rheumatism is a direct result OF
eating too much meat and otner rlch
foods that produce uric acid which IS
absorbed into the blood. 1t is the
function of the kidneys to filter TINS
acid from the blood and cast II out
in the urine; the pores of the SKIN
are also a means of freeing the piooo
of this impurity. In damp and chlily
mus forcing the kidneys to do double
work they become weak and sluggish
and fail to eliminate the uric acld
which keeps accommodating and clrcu-
lating through the system, eventually
settling in the joints and muscles
causing stiffness, soreness ana pam
called rheumatism

the chief. The general thereupon
placed him in a village howell guarded
by sentries.
In a few days the count disappeared
and with the help of Princess Matten-
Mich he succeeded in crossing the
Swiss frontier with the archduchess
disguised as her page.
The couple went to live in Zurich
with an English friend. The court
however, found the trail and decided
to stifle scandal by taking the pre-
sumptuous young officer from Swift
erland. A go-between named Cagern,
who had been passing letters between
Princess Mattennich and the young
couple, entered the plot against the
count.

For this purpose he rented a villa
serving as an annex to the Lucerne
hotel where Prince Won Buelow was
acting as the kaiSer'S emiSSary for
several months.
Cagern lured Count Seller and the
archduchess to Lucerne, promising a
passport which would enable them to
flee to America. No sooner had the
count arrived than he was invited to
the villa, where he was confronted
with q brother of the archduchess, a
military attache of General Won
Einem and several members of the
Vienna police.
On the same day the English friend
of the count was summoned by tele-
graph to Lucerne, where the secret
police conducted him to the villa In
an upstairs room the police, without
the slightest comment, showed him
the count. The unhappy young man
lay stretched dead on the bed His
body was covered with a white cloth
reaching to the neck.
Flowers were profusely strewn on
the bed.
The count had been lured to the
villa, which was exterritorial, and as
