towns and cities with a complete not
of ordinances, codified nnd annotat
ed. He railed attention to several
detects In Alliance city ordinance
which miihi, in certain cases, cause i
serious Iohh to the city. He offered
to furnish the city a complete set of
ordinances, covering every phase of
city government , with fifty printed
copies of the ordinances, for the
sum of $:'.r,o p. r page. This would
muke the COSt approximately $500
for Alliance. The council seemed to
favor the proposition and took it un
der advisement.
Chief of Police George Snyder re
ported that he was circulating the
petlttOBI asking for curb and gutter
on 00 pared Box Hutte avenue, from
First to Fifth street. Property own
ers are sinning the petitions without
. nor and the work will probably
soon begin.
A flag for the city hall was ordered
purchased.
Councilman Davidson explained
that the tractor which he proposes to
sell the city will burn "coal oil, gas
or water." And that It burns "lots
of W!.cr." The electric light depart
ment was authorised to present light
bills to the banks when the consum
er has made arrangements with the
bank to pay the light bill the same as
a chock and when the consumer has
-riven instructions that this be done.
Light rabies were ordered extended
to the residence of Mrs. Graham on
Tenth street.
Councilman Davidson presented to
the council his water bills for part of
1916 and 1917. The bills were as
follows:
Quarter ending July 1. 1916.. $15. 10
Quarter ending Oct. 1, 1916- . 13.50
Quarter ending Jan. 1, 1917. . 6.20
Quarter ending April 1. 1916. 6.55
Mr. Davidson explained that a leak
of approximately 400 gallons of wa
ter per day on a pipe line on his
property had caused the excessive
consumption and asked that a refund
be made. It was decided to refund
him one-half of the bills during the
time the water was leaking. He or
dered the refund paid over to the
lted Cross.
The report of the city library
board for 1916 showed expenses of
$1740.20.
The annual estimate for the fiscal
year commencing the second Monday
in August, was made, to be used as a
basis for the tax levy. The estimate
as made for this year and the figures
for 1916 is as follows:
City park bonds . ..$ 250 $ 300
City hall bonds 550 550
Lighting bonds .... 1,000 1,000

Snyder, Johnson and Davidson,
the committee appointed to consider
the extension of the city corporate

to consider the matter before mak

Mrs. A. M. Miller of Hemingford
sustained a stroke of what is believ
ed to be apoplexy, Monday morning
at 7:15, as she was on her way to
the depot from No. 41. She was
carried into the depot and later tak
en to the home of County Judge Ira
E Tash, at the request of Mr. and
Mrs. Tash, who were at the depot at
the time. Mrs. Miller was removed
to her home at Hemingford on Wed
nesday and at this time has not re
gained consciousness, although rela
tives believe she can understand
whn is being said but is unable to
make any alien.
Mrs. Miller, who is one of Hem
ing'ord's grAnd old ladies, left Hem
ingfmd Friday for Lincoln for a visit
with her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Grace
Mlll?r. She had Intended remaining
in Lincoln for the centennial celebra
tion tbero this week, but for some
reason changed her mind and left
Lincoln Sunday night. As 41 docs
not stop at Hemineford it was her
intention to wait in Alliance until
the noon train for her home. Pas
sengers on the same car with Mrs.
Miller state that she seemed In the
best of spirits Sunday night and that
she seemed to have slept well. She
conversed fluently with the other
passengers early Monday morning
and later seemed to fall Into a heavy
sleep, awaking only when the train
reached this city. She stepped from
the car and started for the depot
when she fell. Since that time she
has remained in an unconscious and
probably partially paralyzed condi
tion. Her husband, A. M. Miller, Mr.
and Mrs. Alex Muirhead and Mr. and
Mrs. R. Walker of Hemingford were
notified and came at once to Alliance
by auto and remained at her bedside
until she was removed from the Tash
home to her home at Hemingford.
