The city levy had for a number of years, he stated, been increasing until it had become a veritable burden on the tax payers, At Alderman Lougee's sug- gestion the committee of the whole will moet next Menday and take the matter up. The recently ordered new artifical stone sldewalks on Broadway and Main street ocoupled a large portion of the aldermen's time last night. Many property owners who stated they had arranged for the lay- ing of the new walks In front of thelr property by private contractors asked that their walks be out out of the general con- tract. In & number of instances this re- quest was granted, conditional on the ap- plicants beginning the construction of their walks by the time the oity contraptor reached their property, otherwise the walks would be lald under the general comtract. Mrs. Sarah Key, owner of property on Broadway, filed a protest at being réquired to replace the walk in front of her build- ings and notified the city she would hold it respongible for damages if it took up the brick walk at present there. Her protest ‘was referred to the committee of the whole. Charles T. Stewart asked he be granted an extension of time in which to put down the new walke in front of the bullding now occupled by Btewart Bros, company, whole- sale grocers, as he intended remodeling the bullding, which would necessitate the taking up of the new walk it laid now. His fequest was referred to the committee of the whole. » for Sidewalks.

Regarding the clalm of A, M. Bonham for personal injuries caused by a fall, the committee recommended that while it did not believe Bonham had any just olaim against the city, that he be paid 350 in full sottlement to avold the possibility of a law sult. This recommendation was con- curred In. The action of the judiclary committes in settling the clalm of #70 presented by Browder & Danlels for injury to a horse for $14 was approved. Question of Who Shall Pay. The question of whether the city or the ‘waterworks company should bear the ex- pense of removing certain hydrants to the curb lne was discussed and finally re- ferred to the city solicitor for his opinion. The hydrants so situated were ordered placed In their locations at a time when the sidewalks were only four feet wide without any parking. Manager Hart of the company agreed to lower or raise all hydrants which did not at present con- form to the grade of the streets in which located. The bill of the company for hy- drant rentals for the half year from March 1 to August 31, amounting to $13,- 262.50, was ordered paid. For 200 hydrants the city pays $100 a year each and for elghty-seven hydrants §5 a year each. An invitation from ‘the carnival and street fair directors to the mayor, alder- men and other city officlals to participate in the parade on Labor dey was accepted. The Krug Browing company was refused permission to place m sign in front of its saloon building at 541 Broadway to extend from the building to the curb line. Gllbert Bros. were authorized to do city weighing in_accordance with tha provi- sions of the ordinance covering same. Oficial Ball Game Arranged. According to present plans and providing bad weather does not Interfers, the base ball game between the officials of Harrison and Pottawattamie gounties will be pulled off at Lake Manawa next Saturday after- noon. Freeman Reed, clerk of the district court, received word yesterday from Audi- tor Huft of Harrison county that his brother county officials accepted the terms of the combat as laid down by the Pottawattamies and that they, duly prepared to do battle, would be here Saturday with a trainload of rooters. The game wil be followed by & banguet, which will be paid for by the losing team. Assistant County Attorney J. J. Hess will eaptain the Pottawattamle team and was yesterday getting his men lned up for the mpprosching fray. The terms of the same provide that none but regularly sala- ried officials of the two counties will be permitted to play.

Goodell of St. Paul, general super- intendent; O. Cornelisen of Fort Dodge it now looked very much as it a local train service between Fort Dodge and Council Blufts would be lnlu‘umod by September 1. ll."en n DA Hct Court. Bult was begun yesterday in the district court by A. C. Wood against the motor company for $10,00 damages. Wood was formerly a conductor in the employ of the defendant company and alleges that while serving in that capacity in September, 1901, as he was passing over the company's bridge across the Missouri river a number of loose boards left lying by the defend- ant's workmen on the bridge were caught up by the car and he was struck. Me sustained, he alleges, permanent injurtes to his wrist, back and knees. James Hunter as administrator of the estate of Johannes Krohn, commenced sult against the Mllwaukee rallroad for $15,000 damages for the death of Krohn. On Janu- ary 18 last last Krohn while driving with Chris Dolen in & buggy was killed by a train on the defendant company's tracks between Yorkshire and Persia. Mrs. Emma Smith makes the Mason City & Fort Dodge railroad and the city of Council Bluffs defendants in a $3,00 dam- age suit filed yesterday in the distriot court. Mra. Smith alleges that she is the owner of a ot in Casady's addition on Third street and Sixteenth avenue and that by reason of the grade or embankment of the rallroad at that point the surface water has been diverted onto her property. Allen Reed of Underwood filed in thé dis- triot court yesterday a petition for divorce from Hliza Reed, to whom he was mar- ried at Balina, Kan, Merch 3, 1000.

Fields against Anna Bartholomew and others and ‘Willfam Hansen and others because Fields had failed to comply with the order made July 3 last by thé court and pay into court the costs and attorney fees. The wsults were dismissed at Fields’ cost. Start Harrison Street Paving. After fighting for two years to get thelr street paved property owners on Harrison street were yesterday made happy by sceing a large force of men placed at work by Contractor Wickham grading the street and getting It in shape for the paving. The contract, which wase let by the city more than two years ago, calls for Council Bluffs brick for top and bottom courses. Bearcity of the home made material, how- ever, Contractor Wickham has always con- tended, prevented the paving being laid before this. It is understood that Mr. ‘Wickham, in view of the continued scarcity of Council Bluffs paving brick, will use Des Molpes vitrified brick for the upper course. At recent meeting of the city council Contractor Wickham was in- structed to put in a cement filler on Har- (rison street, the same as was placed on North Main street. Harrison street is the natural conduit for an immense volume of ‘water which flows from the hill and side streets in that section of the city and it is expected that with the cement filler the paving will not be undermined and washed out.

HIS OFF LEG Rare Addition to the Musioal Colony of Chicago—Story of the Owner, Although it is said that a'whistle has been made out of a pig's tall, Alexander N, Allen, of No, 26 North Clark street, Chi« cago, is probably the first person who has g made a musical instrument gut of his ez, Put your hand anywhere on his left thigh, from the hip to the knee,.and you feel vi- brations just as if you were touching a cabinet organ. Connect his g to your ear with a stethoscope and you hear the same musical murmur that you may hear by those means in the human heart. Indeed. when everything is quiet at night Mr. Allen can hear his musical leg without using the stethoscope. Many physiclans, somle of whom live In Chicago, have examined the case and, after all Mr. Allen can tell them about it, unite in saying that tho case is an exceeedingly singular one. “I am 38 years old;” sald Mr. Allen, “a fifteen years ago I was a clerk in a store in Ofl City, Ont. One day in the store I had an open penknife in my hand and en- gaged In a friendly scuffie with another man. In jerking my arm away from him I ran the small blade of the knife Into my thigh a d@lstance of, perhaps, an inch and & half, and I suppose severed the femoral arte “When iny trousers were removed the blood spurted ten feet every time my heart beat, and in a few seconds I became un- consclous. There was no physician con- venient, and the people about me resorted to a number of primitive methods of stop- ping the hemorrhage, one of which was the application of a mass of cobwebs. The man who got the credit ¢f doing the job, how- ever, was a sort of occulist, ‘who elaimed that he stopped the bleeding with a ‘charm.’ “At any rate, the flow of blood w stopped, the leg was bandaged n the plain- est manner, and the artery healed. For a long time after I got about I could not straighten my leg. But gradually the limb relaxed and finally I walked on it At pres- mt I walk on it all the time, but® I am sensible that it is a little weak, and I have been cautioned that violent exercise of any kind might be fatal. “Dootors disagree about the case. Some sald T would die unless I submitted to an <peration, and others said the operation would surely kill me. They are all puzzied at the musical murmur. The general opin- fon Is that the femoral artery was lacerated and grew together in some way that ob- structs the flow 6f blood. But how a lac- erated artery could ever heal under such treatment none of them can understand. I discovered the musical sound as soon as 1 was able to stand on my feet."—Chicago Journal.

Boyd's all- western team on the links of the Chicago Golf club In the scheduled four-ball, four- some events, 3 to 3, and winning the team competition by § to 3 In the latter event National Amateur Champlon Louis N. James, Western Ama~ teur Champlon Walter B, Egan and Vet- eran B. F. Cummins were the only fepre- sentatives of the American golfers who succeeded in defeating their British rivads. Scotoh Professionals Cheer Hunter, Harvard Champion H. Chandler Egan @nd Norman F. Hunter, the Oxonlan, fur nished the most excitng match of the contest, Five hundred enthusiasts who watched the play saw Hunter total 7L for the most dificult golf course in America, breaking all records for competition and practice made by amateurs and profes- slonals. Hunter won his matoh handily by 4 up, going out in ¥ and coming home in 3; but Egan was not disgraced, for be totalled 76, one better than his former record and only one strike worse than the record made yesterday by H. G. Ellls of Oxford and equalled early today by B. W. Leathart of Cambridge Not even British Champlon Harry Vardon, who made the Chicago course in 74, played such remark- able golf as Norman Hunter, who is a product of North Berwick, Bcotland, and who was cheered by the largest group of professionals from his native land that ever watched an amateur event. Hunter's feat of clipping oft eleven strikes from the difficult bogey score appeared so brilllant that the victory of the Englishmen seemed a secondary matter, The record-breaking card is: Norman F. Hunter, Oxford: Out B4 44360644235 D34364844 w0 Putts of 150 Feet, Chandler Bgan lost his match against the most machine-like goi that he ever en- countered, being able'to capture only two holes from the Cmonian. Egan was out in 40, and coming in he equalled Hunter's score. Hunter frequently holed putts of 160 feet and seemed absolutelyin control of the ball on the green. He never required three putts, took only one putt on six greens and used 30 putts in the entire round. At the third tee Re topped his drive, but re- | covered so well that he took the hole one under bogle from his young rival. After a mediocre drive to the twelfth hole, bogie 6, Hunter played so brillantly that he won it In three. ‘Walter Egan of Exmoor and Harva team mate of Chandler Egan, putted r'~ markably well and defeated H. G. Bellls of Oxford, 3 up 2 to play. Bgan’s medal score was . J. A. T. Bramston, another Oxonian, and the only one of the visitors v,ho clings to the gutta ball, won one up from G. A.

Ranson of Cambridge had a right mateh with B, D. Smith of Onwentsia, but the latter succumbed, 2 down, by hard luck in having putts jump out of the holes at two greens. M. W.
