(Special from United Press.)
Springfield, Mass., July 6. The
spectacle of a group of Confederate
veterans giving a rising vote of ad
miration for General Grant last even
ing, welded the last link in the chain
of friendship between the Petersburg
ramp, United Confederate Veterans
and the Springfield G. A. R. post.
The southerners came here as the
quests of the G; A. R. men and dur
ing the love feast Commander Ber
nard of the: Confederates moved that
"we ex-soldiers give a rising vote of
admiration and appreciation of the
life and deed; of General Ulysses S
Grant."
With bared heads the men of the
Blue and the Gray arose and rever
ently indicated their respect for the
great Union commander. And none
the less significant was the motion
put by Past Deputy Commander Her-
sey of the G. A- R. post of this city,
that the men who wore the Blue give
a rising vote of "admiration, good
will and love of the memory of two
heroes of the Confederacy, General
Robert B. Lee and Stonewall Jack
son."
Again Blue and Gray stood and
reverently indicated their hearty ap
proval of the motion.

Feet, Corns, Callouses and Bun
ions, TIZ Cures Right Off
Say good-bye to your corns the
rery first time you use TIZ. Tou will
never know you have a corn, bunion
or callous, or sweaty, tired, swollen,
aching feet any more. It's just won
derful the way the pain vanishes.
Rub the corn hammer it with your
fist if you wish no more pain after
TIZ than if there had never been
a blemish on your feet. Doesn't that
sound good to you? Doesn't . it?
Then read this:
"The corns on either of my toes
were as large as the tablets yon make
to cure them. Today there is no sign
of corns on either foot and no sore
ness. It's an up-to -date Godsend."
Sam. A. Hoover, Progress, X. C.
Just use TIZ. It's not like any
thing else for the purpose you ever
heard of. It's the only foot remedy
ever made which acts on the princi
pal of drawing out all the poisonous
exudations which causes sore feet.
Powders and other remedies merely
clog up the pores. TIZ cleans them
out and keeps them clean. It works
right ofi. Tou will feel better the
very first time it's used. Use it a
week and you can forget you ever
had sore feet. There is nothing on
earth that can compare with it. TIZ

Alderman R. H. Gould made the

of aldermen run around,' roll over
and Jump through last night for the
edification of Benjamin I. Spock, at
torney for the Connecticut Co., who
sat with the spectators in. the council
chamber, last night. Mr. Spock en
tered the council chamber almost un
noticed with a little leather grip and
left almost unnoticed. Mr. Spock
had nothing to say, but he took much
interest in the Congress street widen
ing matter.
Under the leadership of Attorney
Gould the aldermen voted by a , Dai-
lot of 13 to 11 not to allow the board
of appraisal to ascertain the cost 01
widening Congress street on the south
side.
The street committee made a un
animcus report In favor of ordering
a widening on both sides. Chairman
McMurray stated that after the cost
of widening on both sides was learn
ed that it would be an easy matter
for the board to decide which side it
wanted to widen upon. He moved
the adoption of the resolution.
Alderman Primrose moved to.
amend the report by striking out the
word "south." Then Alderman Gould
moved that the board take a recess
of five minutes to consider the re
port. Alderman McMurray said that it
was not necessary to take a recess to
consider the matter as the commit
tee was ready to give the council any
information it wanted. He declared
that It was never known where the
council adjourned for such a pur
pose. Alderman Jackson said that
the clerk had read clearly and that
his enunciation was good. It was
voted to take the recess by a vote o
16 to 8.
During the recess Alderman Gould
had a chat with Attorney Spock from
New Haven.
When the aldermen had reconven
ed Alderman Primrose had a written
amendment to substitute for his ver
bal one.
In the discussion which followed
Alderman Gould expressed doubts as
to the legality of the report of the
committee and gave the lay members
of the council the benefit of his legal
knowledge. He also said "the phrase-
logy of the report is such that law
yer and layman cannot understand
It."
Those who voted for the amend
ment to consider the north side only
were Aldermen Mahoney, ; Cassidy,
Walker, . Griffin, Paddock, Wilder,
Fletcher, v Bullard, O'Connell, Zink,
Gould, Bertilson and Primrose.
The 11 who voted 'no" and who
wanted to know the 'cost of the south
side as well as the north, but lost,
were Aldermen McMurray, Clampett,
Conlin, Reddy, Brady, Lavery. O'Neil,
Jackson, Stewart, Feyrer, and Meyer.
After the vote was taken the tal1
young lawyer, still carrying the little
grip, left the building with a smile.
He was undoubtedly of the opinion
that Gould was some pumpkins as an
aldermanlc ringmaster. -
While the vote on the matter was
being taken Alderman O'Connell had
to be awakened to vote. Alderman
Wilder had put his views' upon the
widening question into writing and
he spent the best part of a half hour
in reading them. ; During the read
ing the alderman from the Eightb
lapsed into the arms of Morpheus.
