 All the bids that Were received at the January meeting for the in stallation of a water and sewer sys- tenn were rejected, and the bonds and certified checks accompanying them were ordered returned to the bidders.
 New specifications will be pre- sented at the next regular meeting in specifications that will specify something-when the matter will be taken up and disposed of-in manner, judging from the attitude of those present, that vii be satis- factory to the majority of the cit izens interested.
 Councilman Chamberlin was of the opinion that so long as the bonds were voted and interest accruing, that it was time to go' on the con- struction of the system, and it was the concensus of opinion that at the March session definite action will be taken on the matter and plans form ulated for the actual flying of dirt on the work.
 A motion was made and carried for the clerk to notify the engineer to have the revised specifications ready for the meeting of March 9th, in compliance with the changes sug gested.
 The bid of Frank Whitten was ac- cepted for the laying of the side walk along Porter street and the work ordered done.
 The marshall was instructed to serve Julius Wetzler with a forty eight hour notice to fill up and re- move the hole in the sidewalk in front of the Holbrook Mercantile building near the telegraph office.
 On motion of Chamberlain ten loads of gravel were ordered to re- pair Santiago street.
 The bill for the street lighting and also for the installation was ordered held up until more light was shed on them.

MYTHOLOGY STUDENT
 GETS A SETBACK

Once upon a time, Ala Baba was watching his pigs industriously root ing. Clifford King came along and asked: "Why do those pigs root so?" Ala Baba replied: Cliff, them pigs root to prevent introSpection. The success of a pig in life hangs on his ability to forget the fact that he is pig; so them pigs, being wise, are losing themselves in useful effort" |"
 And an overzealous editor, believ- ing that what he desires will come true, might be excused on the same grounds as Ala Baba's pigs.

 And on being informed that he was in the right town but the wrong pew, he went on his way roofing for the fountain head of Arizona oil information.

Deputy Airs, who conducted the kitchenette for the Reynolds system was given a farewell shower last Saturday in honor of his getaway for California, and the pathos of the parting was intensified by the rude ness of the tax collector who de- handed his pound of meat after the grafanola and kitchen utensils were nailed up ready to go. This makes three shocking interruptions, by of ficious officials, of the plans of prom inent society lions who were on their way to new pastures, new conquests and new accounts.
