CONTROVERSIES OVER
STREET AFFAIRS WAX
HOT IN THE COUNCIL

Two controversies arose in the
council last evening and waXed warm
for a time. One was between w. A.
Hoagland, late street cleaner. and
Chairman Phelps of the street COM
| mittee and the others was between
Street Commissioner Heathman and
Councilman Murphy.
The first related to the payment of
Hoagland's salary for his last month
of work. Chairman Phelps said it
would be paid when the storm sew.
ers which had become c,ogged were
cleaned out. Mr.. Hoagland replied
that his contract called for the city
to furnish him with water and that
early in July he had been ordered not
to use any more water. Phelps accus-
ed Hoagland of only half doing his
work and Hoagland charged that
Phelps had been down on him ever
since he had refused to water the
Roundup grounds for Cole Bros
circus for some comps" at Phelps
suggestion. He had one of his assist
ants present to testify to the storm
sewers and catch basins having been
cleaned The mayor directed that the
matter be looked into and reported
on by next week.
The other controversy arose over
the Cd question of the flush tanks for
the sewers Street Commissioner
Heathman complained that since
Supt. Hayes had put meters on the
tanks that several on Railroad and
Webb were not flushing at all and
that the sewer had become dry and
clogged up. This aroused some of the
councilmen to a sense of danger but
Councilman Murphy declared he
would not take Heathman's word on
the matter and insisted that the sew
er committee make a personal inves-
tigation of all flush tanks The water
supply is ,ow at this time, he said, and
must be conserved. Before the tanks
had been metered he said. there had
been a sinful waste of water through
the sewers. Councilman Vaughan
told OF inspecting the tanks with
Supt Hayes and of finding that 49,
100000 gallons month had been
floying through the sewers, ten times
too much. he said. ALI of the tanks
had been regulated. he said. but mono
shut off.

ADVENTURE Bull
1T did mean more than we
thought, Margie,' said Paula, as she
told me about Toms drinking, for it
seemed the office had given him this
last chance and sent him over to
write up things about the capitol dur
ing the inauguration.
Tom could do this better than
any one in the Office, for his training
as theatrical critic had made him
very observing, and he was a SPLEEN
did judge Of men.
Since he had been in Washington
five days, however, he had not sent
one word to his editor and after al
lowing himself to be advertised he
had thrown his paper dOwn-a crime
as quickly punished by discharge as
treason to ones county is punished
by death.
Alma was heaTtbTOken and Of
course her health suffered by it, al
though she jumped right in and took
Toms place and wrote some splendid
stuff for his paper, which she signed
by his name. 1t was too late, how
ever, and altogether our wonderful
time we had planned so much upon
proved a fizzle.
q began my duties as secretary to
Congressman Smith in earnest the
next day.
''The first thing I learned was that
had to keep my sense-cap on all the
time. In fact, had to have all the
horse sense in the Office. I was par
ticularly careful because I soon
found out my job was supposed to
be a mans job and, being a political
plum, was usually given to some one
in the district who had done faYOrs
for the congressman. Mr.. Smith
had been elected by a suffrage vote
and it was Of course expected he

felt he would stand by his guns.
Every woman in politics in my
district had a friend or relative whom
she wanted to have the job he con-
fided to me, and really think after
a while they will see that l did the
best thing. But it is up to you, Miss
Newton, to make them think So
Isn't fate a joker, Margie? Think
Of putting me in this position of
which l knew nothing just because
Alton Smith came from the same
town as Alma Huntington and had
always liked her.
AT the psychological moment we,
Alma and I, met the congressman
and there you are. am an absolute
fataIist, Margie."
Don't say that, DEAR" I remOn-
strated. Il hate to think we are not
able to do as we wish in this world.
Besides, if that is the case, why do
anything but drift"
"Oh, Margie, it is such fun to play
the cards. Why, my dear, the game
is the most wonderful that human
ity can conceive. One may imagine
more perfect love, more perfect
health, a better position and perhaps
at the time one thinks life is mOnOt-
OnOus or cruel, but if one just looks
at it from the right perspective one
knows life is good always.
81 am not afraid Of death, Margie
Indeed it will be just another deal of
the cards bUt nh 2 have found this
world so intensely interesting, so
wonderfully sweet, I shall hate to
leave it."
I looked at Paula somewhat sur 8

have read even these first intalments
Of her story must know, that she has
had much sorrow as well as much
Joy, and yet each year is seems to
be she has grown more optimistic
