A meeting of the members of the syndicate
was held last Saturday evening at Mr Snow's
Hw office and appniuteJ an executive com
mime counting of D A. Cook, James Mil
ligun, Jr., D. IUpemiu an 1 Thomas Fullerton.
The committee than electel James Milligan,
Jr., as trustee to hoi 1 the title to the real
estate owned by the syn lica'e; I. B. now,
president; E. C. Allen, treasurer; nn I Tbs.
E. MacKinlay, secretary.
The above are the principal facts, nanus,
and figures connected with the new enter,
prise. The plan of the sy mlicate is to afford
new citizens and young men a chance to get
good homes cheap. The question is, '-Where
can Ottawa grow?'' It ii conceded by every
one that It is growing and is bound to grow.
If it goes westward it must grow Into a sand
bank or hollow out a hole in the solid rock.
On the north bluff tbe property is owned by
men who are abundantly able to hold it and
intend doiug so. The east side is pretty
thoroughly populated already; so why, it is
asked, will uol a large share of the next few
years growth of Ottawa go to the south side?
The gentlemen of tbe syndicate think it will.
Improvements will bo made upon the land
immediately. One thousand trees will be set
out and the streets laid out and graveled.
The lots will be CO feet by 120 and the streets
HO feet wide.
It Is tho plan and iuteutiou of the symli
cute to sell these lots at fair prices and on
easy terms, but to keep tbe neighborhood as
free as possible from any undesirable feat
ures. For example, no lot will be sold uti
less the purchaser will erect a house lo cost
1800 or upwards. No deed will be given
except with the written c nlition that no
liquor shall ever be sold upon the premises.
It is not desired to encumber the purchaser
with rules ami regulations, but tin; ueig' bor
hood will be kept in every way good, and
pleasant, and desirable, if it be in the power
of the syndicate to keep it so.
The prices at which these lots will be sold
have not yet been announced, but it is stated
that the prices will bo low and terms easy.
The new citizens of the better class, tho most
intelligent class, are wanted up there on the
new addition, and young men who are just
wanting homes; all those are the people
whoso wants this new addition is intended
to supply. In some respects it has the ad
vantage over the addition over nt the organ
factory. It is further removed from a por
tion of the business of Ottawa, of course, but
then It is also farther removed from the fac
tories and the smoke aud soot of tho rail
roads. It is reasonably certain that tho lots on
this new addition will be sold a soon ns they
ure surveyed and the prices are announced.

"How about the toboggan slide?'' enquired
our reporter of Thomas K, MacKinlay one
afternoon this week, ''what are you going to
do about it this winter?''
"Toboggan slide?" said Mr, MacKinlay,
"yes, tir; we ore going to have a slide."
"Where are you going to build It'.'"
"If Mr. Gleim will let us we'll build it on
the same ground we did before, only face it
the other way. Then we'll build it with two
slides instead of three, bo as not to have it
so awfully expensive. We lost about six
hundred dollars on the Blide last year, but it
was only tecause it went out with the
freshet. I think that tobogganing is going
to be just ns much of a craze this winter as
ever before. I don't think there is any
doubt but that the slide will pay this year."
"How soon do you thiuk you'll begin op.
erations?"
"About the middle of November.1'
"The same club as before?"
"No. There will probably be six or seven
into it. We had too many last year."
"Who is going in this time?"
" am coine in, ana Al Pchock. and 1
don't know who the others will be. We are
going to have a slide though, sure."

The Streator Free PrenK siys: "Now
that the gaunt spectre, diphtheria, has
stalked Into the very heart of the city,
breathing an atmosphere of death, and
carrying away our loved little ones In its
relentless embrace It Is time vigorous
measures were being taken to Mop its
further progress. The schxds should be
closed and the utmost precactlons taken to
save the children. Hotter a living Ignor
amous than a coffined prodigy. Stop the
schools until all danger Is past. At the
same time let us caution heajs of families
to boll what water tber use. Perhaps not
one well In the city has escaped pollution.
Germs of this terrible disease are not
destroyed by Infiltration. Wells situated
even a long distance from vaults, filth and
garbage are affected. Boiling water kills
all these germs, and makes the cooling
draught healthy and beneficent. The
clearest, most sparkling water Is often that
which contains the most of these death
dealiti!: terms. Uut the schools should be
closed at once. so the Infection will not
spread from that source."
On Sunday eventlntr, between 6 and 7
o'clock, during the first downfall of the
storm, three prisoners escaped from the
Kankakee county jail by means of a tunnel
which they had been secretly engaged on
for a couple of days. Sheriff O'Brien fed
the prisoners, of whom there were five In
the jail, at 0 o'clock, and had just finished
his own supper when he was called to the
grated door which separates the jail from
the sheriff's apparttuents and Informed by
Suprenant, one of his prisoners, that three
of his jail mates had gone. Investigation
showed that pieces of the board flooring
had been sawed through and taken up, and
a tunnel dug under the foundation. They
left their tools behind, with the exception
of the saw or the implement which served
the purpose of a saw. Two or three pieces
of hoop Iron obtained from their bed-slats,
a tin cup nnd a couple of wash basins were
all the implements required. The dirt was
taken away in the wash basins and either
emptied Into the manhole of the sewer or
thrown Into a corner of one of the dark
unused cells, under a mattress. The soil
Is clay which cut easily and did not cave
In to hinder them In the lenst. The foun
dation walls of the court house are only
two feet deep!
