The August city law-makers held an unusually interesting ses sion last evening, ' with a full at tendance of its members with the exception of JR. D. Thomson. A motiou was made that all boxes and obstructions be ordered by the. chief of police removed from the sidewalks. Notice was given of the arrival of the lamp-posts for the new street lights. As these had been seen by some of the council and were re ported, as not being first class, a committee was appointed to ex amine and inspect them before being received. A committee was appointed to -confer with the saloon men in re gard to the payment of their sub scriptions to the Irrigation Fair. Upon motion ot W. Ho Johnston" it was decided to have twelve special policemen appointed for service during the Irrigation Fair at a per diem of $2 eight for night work and four for day. The matter was finally arranged by allowing each alderman to select two from his ward for the above purpose, who will atterward be appointed and qualified by the mayor. W. F. Gates appeared and urged that under the city ordinance he would be taxed too high for con ducting Keith's hall. Upon this matter no decided action was taken. 0 T. C. Patterson, in behalf of the reunion committee, then asked the council. to give said committee the use of ten of the new street lamps for temporary use in lighting its grounds, and that the city allow the reunicm committee all licenses for stand privileges on its grounds. Mr. Patterson stated that said committee had already secured from the railroad company the use of all of its unoccupied gronnd between Locust street and the west line of the city. This was settled by the council granting permission for the use of eight lamps, and allowing the reunion committee the receipts from booth privileges. A bill of Patterson & Alexander for hauling was referred to the committee on claims. A deed of dedication from B. I: Hinman and H. C. Rennie, convey ing certain tracts of land near the southwest part of the city to the city of North Platte for use for street purposes was read. The consideration to the first named owner was the use by him as an ir rigation lateral of the drainage ditch west ot the city, he to pro tect from damage by flood water the said city ard adjacent property owners by a bond ot $5,000. The consideration- lor which Mr. Ren nie gives to the city a strip thirty three feet in width at the south of his property is to be allowed to close an alley sixteen feet in width through a block at the southwest extremity of the city of which he owns all the lots composing said block. The above appears to be very iair propositions, and ones which would seem advantageous to the city. As councilman Schatz was disinclined to take action on the matter until he had looked the ground ovyer, the subject was de ferred to the next meeting of the council. It was "decided that the mayor call a special meeting of the coun cil upon the arrival of the street lamps, to arrange for the placing in position of them and the care of the same, and also to consider the matter of the acceptance of Messrs. Hinman and Rennie's propositions. Upon motion the council ad journed. TENNIS TOURNAMENT.

Frank Rezanina's residence, six miles south of Sidney, was de stroyed by fire on Wednesday last. Mr. Rezanina had three hundred dollars in gold in the house at the time which was very badly melted, but he will not lose a cent on this account, as he afterwards found the gold in a lump and he will realize the full value of .his .money from the sale of the metal. If this three hundred dollars had been silver he would have lost about half as he could get only bullion value in either case. This is another in stance of hoarding- gold. Sidney Poniard. Vermont's state election results in a republican majority of 39,093, the highest majority preceeding being 28,000 in 1894, making a gain of 11,000. A week ago democratic leaders said that over 22,000 would be democratic deleat. Now the Denver News says the democrats were disgusted and stayed away from the polls; but the returns show that more votes were cast than either 1892 or 1894, and effectually disprove the popocrat excuse. The fleinslature has but ten or eleven democrats out of 240. Harry T. Jenkins, of Camp Clarke, called Wednesday to order stationery. He has always voted the democratic ticket, but says he will surely vote for McKinley this fall. He was in New York city when Bryan made his Madison Square speech, and heard him. He says a great many were there, but that most of them simply went just as they would to see a circus ele phant, there being absolute no enthusiasm. Gering Courier. Condensed Testimony. Chas. B.

There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed con dition of the mucous lining of the Eus tachian Tube. When this tube is in flamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entire ly closed, Deafness is the result, and un less the inflamation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal con dition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by ca tarrh which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars; free. P. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, O.
