Vorth Main street Property owners on will not conzent to having that thorough- fare used as a standing place for the| | wagons and teams of licensed expressmen | and common carriers without a vigorous | protest and a possible appeal to the courts, | The action of the eity council in accepting the recommendation of the special com- | mittee instructing the clty solicitor to draft | lan ordinance giving the expressmen the| right to stand thelr wagons while waiting| for hire on this street is much eriticised | by the owners and occupants'of the build- | | ings and houses on that thofoughfare and | ngainst the passage of the ordinance m; the event of the city council ignoring the | protest and passing the ordinance, m‘m:i of the Interested property owners threaten | to take the matter into the courts. i | Sectlon 20 of the old ordinance governing | common carriers provides “that it shall he unlawful for any owner or person In charge or control of any licensel common carrier's vehicle, while waiting for employment in any public street of the city along or in | tront of any lot or building without the| consent of the owners or co-ocgupants of | such premises and the city marshal being| first obtained.”" The new ordinance will of a necessity eliminate this soction fn the old ordinance, but the property owners on | North Main street inaist that ordinance or | no ordinance they have the right to refuse| to permit wagons and teams to stand the whole day in front of their premises. | There fs considerable trafic on North Main street, which has been recently paved, |and the interested property owners claim | that the standing of a large number of big wagons and teams on both sides of the street would naturally interfere with this traMc. They also say that . street would necessarily become covered with filth of all Kinds by the standing of so many horses on it dafly and that from a sanitary stand- point it would become a menace to the people lving on the street. Then agaln ‘they object on the grounds that the men In charge of the wagons would naturally loaf on the sidewalks while waiting for @ Job and this would prove not one of the least nuisances in connection with the mat- ter. It is contended by the persons objecting | to the selection of North Main street that the proper place for the expressmen to stand thelr wagons would be the hay mar- ‘ilflr(-l‘l‘ where they would riot interfere with | anyone.

The fact that the common carrlers pay a Ii- | | cense and insist in return that the eity should provide them with a standing place, | It 1s contended does not justify the city ' | counctl In ordering that they be permitted | to stand their wagons on a public thor- oughfare for the improving of which the | abutting property owners have had to pay. | The preperty owners on North Main street | are much exerolsed over the matter and it | the city persists in giving the common car- | rlers permission to stand their teams and | wagons there, 1t will undoubtedly have | another lawsult on its hands. [MUST KEEP A WIRE CUTTER| Electric Light ¢ ny Ordered to Re Prepared for Night Fire Emergencies, A a result of the fire Wednesday night at the old plant of the electric light com- pany at Eleventh street and Third avenue, | the city council yesterday afternoon noti- fled the Citizens Gas and Electric company that it would be réquired to keep a man at night ready to cut wires when needed | in the event of a fire. It also Instructed the | company to place a firealarm gong In its | substation so that the man on duty coull respond at once when an alarm of fire would | be turned in. The fire at the old electric light plant was cavsed by the wind blowing live wires down on the bullding, which also came ‘n contact with some of the old wires which bad yet been removed. When the firemen | arrived, there was no one to cut the wires | and Chief Templeton refused to allow any of the men near the bullding, It was some time before an employe of the electric light company could be secured and the wires cut. The damage to the bullding, however, was nominal. Chief Templeton made a report to the council as the failure of the electrict Mght company to have a man on duty st night might prove disaa- | trous another time. It was sald that the electrie light company had been for some time seeking a competent man fo place In charge at night, but had been unable to se- cure one. The police report that about two-thirds of the arc lights were out Wednesday night, It 16 sald that the supply wire from Omaha had become grounded and consequently the clty was in comparative darkness. The commercial 1ighting has heen unsatisfactory a3 complalats have been many.

The judgment amounted to $70.05 and Paulson alleges he was not served with notice of suit and that he did not learn until a year after that judgment had been rendered against him.

He had smpleted his call and bad just left the house when In passing the Jasper lumber vard, a dark and lonely place at the corner of Race and North streets, it is supposed he acked by thugs and sandbagged, with robbery as the motive. The doctor was discovered in an uncon- sclous condition hy a passerby about an hour after the assault and carried into D. M. Wert's house.

AYER CO., Loweli, Mass, NEED OF SCHOOL FOR DEAF Appropriation Ameunting to $19,000 | Arked of the Icwa Legislature, | AMPLE ROOM FOR ALL UEAF OF | 10WA | — School Reported in Good Condition— Unton Labor In lowa=Saielde Fole 1owing Sensational Divorce— Two Hunters Shot. (From a Staff Correspondent ) DES MOINES, Sept. 12.—(Special.)—The twenty-third blennial report of the superin tendent of the fowa School for the Deaf at Council Bluffs was flled with the States | Board of Control this morning. “The past |two years," says Superintendent Rothert, ‘bave witnessed no retrograde movement in this educational Institution of our state. Our puplls have advanced satisfactorily have been happy and contented, our officers and teachers have labored faithfully, have been loyal and zealous, and peace and good will have relgned supreme at all times within its walls.” The health of puplls has been good and In the two years no deaths have occurred at the school. Appropria- tions are asked for, not for enlargement of the bufldings, but for repairs and neces- sary improvements. The dormatories, din- ing room, chapel, industrial schools and school house are declared to be of such am- ple dimensions as to properly care for and educate all the deaf children of the state who for many years to come may apply for admission. Some efforts have recently been made to start a movement for another school, and in reference to this Superin- tendent Rothert says “Efforts have been made to bring to the notice of all cltizens of Towa the existence of this school and the importance of the advantages It extends to all deaf children, and from reeponses received a certainty exists that all who are willing are enrolled and none are neglected. Until the enact- ment of a compulsory law for the deaf no deaf child will be debarred from an educa- tion If its parents are willing, or so decide, by reason of want of room In or cost of transportation to the lowa School for Deaf as It now exists or is located “The revenue of the Towa School for the Deaf as now provided by statute is barely sufficient to support and matntain the school In_its present acceptable and beneficent condition, leaving no margin for recogniz- ing progressive improvements or permitting it to move forward and upward to higher | plaing of completeness and usetulness. The necessity for recognizing the services of officers and teachers more liberally has | become apparent. The salaries pald are be- low the average. The reduction in the sal ary fund from $21,000 to $18,000 and the withdrawal of the support fund during va- cation, amounting to poselbly $4,000, has naturally decreased the revenue of the school. Superintendent Rothert recommends that the support and salary funds be con- solldated and that a monthly per capita of $20 be allowed in lieu thereof. Recommendation is made that more land should be purchased for the farm ana &rounds. The bulldings are so scattered that there is not suficient room for properly reaping the benefit of judiclous farming, The vegetable gardens, the corn flelds and the meadows are In small patches, distrib- uted over 157 acres owned by the state.

The trio became separated and scared up a flock of chickens in a cornfield One of the Croft boys fired at a chicken as it was rising and missed it, but hit both of the other hunters. Croft was most severely wounded, the shot taking effect in his face. Fenton was struck by one shot, Which went through ths lobe of his ear. Just after the shot struck Fenton the chicken which had been missed passed close to Fenton and he shot it before walting to see how badly he had been injured. Union Labor in lowa. Statistics prepared by the commissioner of labor statistics show that there are more than 26,000 persons In lowa belonging to labor unions of various kinds. Their unions | are located in eighty-six cities and towns of the state and more than fifty trades are represented. The largest number of union men belong to the Mine Workers' union, which has fifty-nine branches and a mem- bership In lowa of 9,109, In the federal unions there are 1,771 members, rallroad frainment 1762, locomotive firemen 1,434 locomotive engineers 1,268, raflway con- ductors 947, carpenters and jolners 880 team drivers 739, butchers 720, cigarmakers 713, printers 661, clerks 648, machinists 469, painters 416, musiclans 383, bricklayers 347, brickmakers 330, woodworkers 339, tallors 328, barbers 350.

The best wages are receivod by the conductors and the poorest by the street rallway employes, bakers and bot- tlers. Sulcide Follows Divorce Case, Some months ago a sensational divorce case was tried here, that of Mrs. W. E. Richardson against her husband, which re sulted in a divorce decree for the plaintift They moved in high sgclety, but the testi mony in the case showed a condition of | affairs in their domestic life far from ideal Mrs. Richardson had come from Massachu- | setts and her sister, Miss Agnes Pelbam, had ltved with her here, and the latter was an important witness in the case. The father of Mrs. Richardson and Miss Pelham | was here and attended the trial. This was H. C. Pelham, a traveling man for a Boston tea and coffce hou: wha llved in Spring- fleld, and he was much taken with the testimony and greatly depressed because of the scandal into which his daughters had been drawn. His wite had died only a short time previously. Now news comes from Boston that Mr. Pelham went to the Quincy house and committed sulcide, leay ing letters indicating that his deed was| prompted by despondency over financlal | and domestic troubles. It is regarded | here that the divorce case and |ts revela- tions were indirectly responsible for the suleide of the father of the chief persons counected with it Strike of Stage Employes, A strike of the stage employes of the opera house of Des Moines has been in eugurated.
