•rhc yub-Commiltec on Streets, which
v.ns appointed by committee to devise n
scheme for the general and permanent im
provements of th<> streets, alleys, and
e ia«walks of the city, failed to secure a
qj;nrum yesterday afternoon, but those
prpjent— Mr. J. B. Minor, Mr. J. M. N.
Ailen. and City Engineer Cutshaw—dis
cuFsed the matter at length.
The decision of thtae gentlemen is that
tho Question before the sub-committee
je one of ' the most important that has
been considered concerning the struts of
the city for many years. The whole ob
ject of the movement is to promulgate n.
p]sn "whereby work can be mapped put
'or the coming ten, fifteen, twenty, and
£• n thirty years. If necessary, so that;
p. hit future appropriations that will he
mride annually for street work may bo
used in a systematic manner, instead of.
by patchwork and piece meal, and by
wards; as has been th« custom of the
Committee on. Streets in tho past.
City Engineer Cutshaw was requested
by Mr. Minor to collect the data neces
sary to formulate "a .plan for this work.
ar.d as soon as he ip ready to report., the
sub-committee will be called together for
the purpose of hearing his suggestions.
WHAT IS PROPOSED.'
Some idea of the excellent scheme that
Colonel Cutshaw has in mind can be seen
by a glance at what it is proposed to do.
The clerical force of his office will be
pui at once to work to make a list, of
streets by squares where there exists
curbing and guttering, sewers, gas, and
writer mains, and sidewalks, with- the.
character of materials in use in every
square in the city. Each square of each
Etrcft and alley is to be listed and the
cSiarncter of improvement thereon to be
shown; The character of paving needed
is to l>c indicated and classified with the
reasons for such recommendation. What
Firf-ets and alleys are to be graded and
how the work is to be done. What re
newals "are needed at once and wh.lt an
nual repairs will be necessary now.
Where temporary grading will be needed
until permanent paying can be done.
V.'hat streets and alleys to be graded and
opened or closed. The estimate of cost
and the order in which the work shall be
done, aiong with how much of it shall be
attempted annually. ..
It can be seen from this out,-ne that is
Jn the mind of Colonel Cutshaw that the
City Council will be asked to outline a
Friic-me for work to be. done for a period
of years and that every dollar, after the
adoption of the proposition, would be ex
pended in permanent improvement instead,
of more.-; than one half of the appropria
tion going for repairs and temporary work
and much of the remainder for perma
nent work, a square here and a. square
there, in various sections of the city.
Colonel Cutshaw has arranged for him-
F^lf a gigantic undertaking, but the mem
bers of the Fub-commit.ec anticipate that
when tli« report comes from the. engineer
it will be in such fihap^ 'that there will
be no trouble to peT'tila' members of the
City Council to adopt the scheme readily
and put it in force with the appropriation
for the coming year.
ONE MORE' APPEAL
r«ln<er« Will ?lnlic Us* ISflTor* Ttc-
Brnriliuc GovcrnorN Mnnxfoii."
Thf> painters last fttfthl'voted to send $5
to the striking miners, and instructed'
ihoir secretary to say that .more would
be pent if it were needed.
The union decided to make one more, ap
peal. to Governor Montague to compel
the contractor at work on' the Executive
Mansion to employ only union labor. A
committee will call on the Governor and
make representations as forcibly as pos
sible. They %yill take this course, they de
c!are, because Mr. Peters repeatedly re
fuses to meet them or to discuss the mat
icr •with them. If something is not done,
the union may take more radical steps
later.

Kodol Js'-tlie one great; remedy. which
protects the health and strength of men,,
women, and children during r hot. weather.
It is impossible for the stomach arid diges
tive organs to get out. of order'or fail to
perform their functions naturally when
Kodol , is used. No summer sickness,* no
indigestion, and no .stomach trouole can
overtake the man, woman, or child who
•will meet' lirst symptoms by the use of
Kodol. Sour stomach, belching of gas,
heartburn, palpitation of the heart, "full
ness after eating loss of appetite, bad
hreath) and coated tongue are some of
tho symptoms indicating imperfect diges
tion, and fermentation as the first stage
of stomach disorder. Cathartics paralyze
the digestive organs, they, strain and
break down the glands of the j stomach
and their effect is to weaken' the strength
and. vitality of the system generally.
Kodol contains the natural elements of
digestion, and removes' the cause of the
trouble by correcting fermentation.
Kodol corrects fermentation, insures per
fect digestion, cleanses, purifies, and
sweetens the •stomacho." gives" strength,
tone, and elasticity to the glands and
membranes lining the stomache.
This famous, tonic is prepared in the
laboratories of ; E. C. DeWitt & Co.. Chi-:

of medical preparations are unequaled
anywhere in the country.. *.
ho.. was letting it catch hold of a piece of
bag, and then pulling it away, and,- that
the puppy jumped at and bit him on the
linger. The baby boy was bitten while
he was on the way to the dining-room
with the pup running beside him-and
biting at his feet.
Mrs. Blair said that at the time they
paid very little attention to the bites,
but that they killed the dog.
The children like the experience of
coming to. the city, and say that they
like' the way Dr. Hoen treats them. Dr.
lloen had nothing more'to'say than what
he said yesterday, to the effect that the
Pasteur treatment is not a cure, buy; only
a preventive of hydrophobia, arid that
the children had come after a long period
had elapsed since they received tho bites
which makes the case very much more
serious.

' These bulletins I contain the guaranteed
analyses of the brands of -fertilizer of

tin. The law provides that; the purchaser
shall not be 'compelled to pay for goods
which fall ten per cent: below, the guar

that the "manufacturers could not "demand

The bar "of justice was yesterday turned
into Hymen's altar, and a colored couple-
John Wlngfield and Nannie Ross by
name— were made man and wife by Rev.

Lonnie Graves as witness. The marriage
was performed through necessity, other

drunk and robbing a man of $8. She re
fused to go to court and had to be. forced

to put it into execution. The result was
that when the wagon arrived with its
prisoners and the door thrown open, there
stood Jeanette minus clothing. The shock
was general, though Jeanette seemed, to
think it a joke. At any rate, her point
was gained. She was hurried back to the
jail and her case continued.; V
