The estimated cost of this work is $46,000, and it is urged that the property owners in the district men- tioned ‘can weil afford to make the investment, which would eall for a special of fifty mills. These sewers will giv ‘l o drainage to the business por- tion of the city for some years, and when necessary can be worked into the Davis system nlmnhl it ever be adopted. In pre- senting this plan to the council, Mr. Waobster said he was confident that the failure to vote the $100,000 1 bonds for th 1vis system was duo chiefly to the lack of interest taken by those mostly concerned, and he would suggest that the matter be now properly laid” before the business men, and their operation so- isted. This drew out a resolution author- zing ‘the sewer committee to confer with the class named, and report at the next gossion of the council. Under this reso- Tution Mr. Webster has called a meeting of business men for Thursday evening, at the council chamber, when the v problom will be thoroughly canvasscd. to il AL w‘mt -h\L olnld ry ohnson, a sauey looking wench in Judge loutgmmryncourz y terday, after be- ing arraigned with two otl women for fighting m tln- Kelly over the ownership of a measley looking kid “\ er can't have it dun colored principal. gavo me the child . yc gwine to keep it, 'less y 8 week.” “Yer bet yer sweet life I'm gmng to pave dat chile,” retorted Mary. *“I'm no oommon coon,l 't jedge, for my hus- band’s owned twelve thousand dollars’ wuth of nigger, an’ it makes me tired to :lm 'socinted” wid such miserable trash as FygiD When Judge Montgomery succeeded in rapping the disputants to order, he fround that M had given her child away some months ngo, and now, on ying to got it, was confronted by a bill for its keep, which she would not pay. forred to the y adjourned in fo; iy drovo Jidge’ Parker wild with vl.um Both the wenches were ble and ubusive, and the modest to breathed easier when they s advice and went home to hh-t]) Mary's last \\uula as she shot out u( the door wi ‘1 earn an 'onest living, I do, an’ I it that chile or I'll cut \ulln-bml) nto -lhm-‘llmf's, dat's jest the kind of & coon I am, TWO ERRING DAUGHTE] Lizzie Dodd and Fannie Langtow, the Young girls who ran away from their homes 1n this city Sunday, were found at Fairmount yeste by 'Deputy Sheriff Beach, having a sort of spring picnic with the bloods of that western metropo- lis.
