 At a luncheon in connection with the meeting President Frank B. Moves of the Washington Star proposed a toast to President Wilson, saying, "tin offering a toast, the formal wish for health is usually of little significance. With us this year, in our only toast it is our custom to offer, the case is profoundly different, for very earnest 1y, very hopefully and very sincerely we drink to the health, the full re- stored health of the President of the United States

 Some men shrink in stature on further acquaintance, while a few grow. As the people of the United States have observed one of the chief of their servants from day to day and from year to year there has been an increasing appreciation with each hghtfuI personality and of his great tact in a very trying and difficult position, but of his reSoIute cheerful ness and sturdy good sense-and that is saying a great deal in these days and especially of a man who has beer , his precise geographical position

ALDERMEN VOTE
 TO DISCONTINUE
 NICHOLS STREET


 The discontinuation of Nichols street from Kossuth street to the har- Dor was voted by the Common Coun- cil last night despite the protest of Alderman Hogan and a report from the City Attorney which stated that the city is not protected in it's right of way for sewer or water pipes in the portion of the street abandoned to be given to the SAfts Textile com pany,
 Alderman Hogan moved that the matter be laid on the table until the next meeting of the council but the motion was lost by a large vote.
 Alderman Hogan also lost his fight to have the report of the finance committee read, stating that approv- ing the report without having it read was the same as the city signing a blank check. Alderman Hogan in sisted that the minutes of the finance committee meeting had not been sent out and that there had been no op- portunity of examining the report prf- or to the move made for it's approval The report was accepted by the coun- ci1 however without reading.
 Mayor Wilson in his message to the council urged the extension of Broad street northerly from Elm, calling at tention to the fact that this extension is needed to keep pace with the growth of the city. Issuance of short term notes to the amount of $200,000 until such time as permission to issue more bonds may be granted is advo- eated by the mayor.
 The mayor suggests concrete arch in Golden Hill street to carry traffic i on that thoroughfare. the Broad street extension to pass beneath it

 The Board of Charities was author ined to exchange with the Remington Arms company certain pieces of ground in and adjacent to the Town Farm. Peermission was given the Charities department to sell to the Arms g. strip of the town farm about seven-tenths of an a.<re for a price not less than $500.
 On recommendation of the Ordin- ance committee the council adopted an ordinance giving David J. OCon- nor pension of $1,2o0 annually i1 recognition of his long and faithful. service to the city.
 Payment of $40, 900 to c. c. Fish CT as first payment for the garbage plant was authorized, and $2s,0o0 re ceived from the T. A Scott in settle nent for a suit by the city for dam. age to the sea wall was reappropriat- ed to the Park Board.
