The prevalence of certain forms of
diseases ought to cause the oily council
to take action in regard to the scaven
ger business. Streets and alleys need
attention , and there is no arrangement
made by which cleanliness can bo se
cured. An ordinance is needed , and
some system established.

Oliunco For Reform.
The county commissioners are strange
ly indifferent about fixing up the court
house grounds , and their condition it
fast getting to bo little less than a ( lib-
grace. A few scattering weeds have
bprung up hero and there , but aside
from that the grounds are perfectly
bare , gullied by the rains , and as unin
viting ns possible. At each heavy rail
n quantity of the loose dirt is washet
down upon the sidewalk , leaving aboir
two or three inches of soft mud foi
passers-by to wade through when pass
ing the county property.
The court House has boon complete !
for several months , but the grounds stil
remain unimproved and an eyesore t <
every one who has occasion to visit 01
puss the building. The shameful con
oition iu which the grounds tire allowee
to Ho detract greatly from the favorable
impression that the building makoi
upon n visitor , nnd it is time that i
change was inaugurated. If the com
missioners think they have complotei
their duty in merely getting the build
ing nmdy for occupancy , the publi <
would like to know it and make othei
nrrnngomonts for the continuance of ira
provoments.

'Iho Storm nt tlio hike.
The Sunday night storm was a wild
ono nt Lake Manawa. Since the ncci-
dent last year great caution is shown on
the part of most of those who frequent
, ho lake. When clouds appear , and a
storm is threatening , thu lake is almost
deserted. Occasionally some thought-
ess person will push out in a boat , but
, ho steamers refuse to go out when
there is any possibility of trouble.
Several row boats were caught out in
; hc Sunday night storm. Two of thcbo
joats had not been found last night ,
jut there were no i > or oris reported
missing , so it is supposed tlr.it the par-
Lies having the boats had lauded and
.oft thoboats | to takocaro of themselves ,
[ t was reported that two young men
were missing from the hotel , and the
0. E. Mayno made a runabout the lake ,
limiting for thorn. After a prolonircd
search it was discovered that the pair
was quietly sleeping in their beds
nt the hotel. The hunt was a useless
ono , and although provoking , was ono
which resulted sntisUictorily to the boys
at least.
Shouts were heard as of some ono in
distress , but there was much dilllculty
in locating them , and at last the words
were heard "We're all right. " Some
Lime later in making the rounds of the
lake Mr. Clawson and Mr. Dudley , of
the C. E. Miiyuu Htoame.i , heard cries
again , and on investigating found a
young couple btrandud in the mouth of
Mosquito crcelc. The young man was
Joe Oilliland , telegraph operator at the
Chicago , Milwaukee & St. Paul , and the
young lady Miss Stella Ellis , one of the
telephone operators. They were in a
row boat when the storm struck the
lake. Their boat was boon filled Mvith
water and became unmnnngoiiblo , bo
that all they could do was to hang to it ,
and lot the wind and waves carry them
at their will. They were driven into
the mouth of the Mosquito
creek , ono of the darkest and
drearii-bt places around the laico.
When the wind subsided , and the waters
receded , they were loft high but not
dry , on a mudbank in the willovs. The
young man had halloed until his lungs
could no longer do full work. The pair
were thoroughly drenched. Mud to the
depth of ton feet surrounded them , and
in the darKiiess there was no way of
their determining whore they wore.
When their two rescuers reached them
the couple were ready to be rescued. A
more grateful pair never welcomed the
prebenco and help of others. The boat
was pulled about a hundred yards
through the mud nnel reached water
just as the clocks in the city were strik
ing three. The young man had proved
himself quite ingenious. Ho had noth
ing with which to bale out the boat ,
and by a happy thought had boi/.od his
umbrella , and ubed that for baling the
boat. In this way ho had got it pretty
well relieved of water. The couple
reached the hotel in safety nnd were
soon made comfortable.
The Nellie Keller was about half way
across the lake when the gale struck
her with terrific force , blowing out all
lights , scattering floats in all directions
and almost lifting her out of the water.
The blast struck heron the quarterbut
the captain managed to keep her "head
on , " anel she was driven towards the
beach at a furious rate. At ono time it
scorned certain that she would go over ,
but the heroic exertions of the crow
averted the catastrophe , nnd the
staunch little vessel was finally hard on
shore whore she stuck fast. Yestordaj
morning a party wont over from this
side of the lake and got her oil. She
was not damaged to any great ox ton I
nnd was able to resume her rogulai
trips. A large number of floats wore
missing , but the majority of them will
bo picked up in the lake. The M. F ,
Rohror was fast at her dock , and ne
damage was done her.
Patrons of the Pacific House have
none but words of praise for the atten
tion given them.

With its usual venom one of th <
Omaha papers goes out of its way to pok <
fun at the little lake placed in Fair
mount park. It is not completed , am
as Park Commissioner Graham says
"It is no Ube to lot children and fooli
boo anything until it is dono. " The lit
tie lake will bo a refreshing liltlo spo
when finished. It ib not large. Noom
ever claimed it would bo. It is no Lnki
Michigan as yet. Visitors to the parl
are gratified with it , however , and ii
view of the limited amount of mono ;
which the park commissioners havi
to expend , they are doing nobly in the
line of improvements. As soon ns possible
siblo the liltlo lake will bo fenced ani
other improvements made. The young
will thei
man-afraid-of-wator not
tumble into thu little pond , which bj
his own statement is bo small that m
one could drown. Commissioner Gra
ham was largely instrumental in seem
ing for this city , for a few hundred dollars
lars , the park which is now worth
many thousands and which is the pridi
of the city. Some then called it "Gra
ham's Fojly , " but tlmo has demon
stratcd to whom belonged the foolish
ness. It is no loss certain that timi
will demonstrate In regard to the littl
Inko that Graham's wisdom will bo ii
striking contrast to the "young-man
afraid-of-the-wator'a folly. "

It is a sweet , pink-checked , brown-
eyed , tiny girl buby that weighs but
thirteen ounces. It bolongH to Mr. and
Mrs. James Willis , of UliO Kiiizie street.
They were expecting a baby , but wore
ooking for feomothing tangible and that
could make u noibo.
"I know it is small , but it will grow , "
said the angel ot babyhood as ho weighed
.t on a pair of golden scalesand charged
ip thirteen ounces of cherub to Mr.
Willis. There was another member of
, hu family who was disappointed in the
size of tlio baby , and that was "Door-
Knobs. " Ho is a youngster who was
jorn two years ago , and was so small
jhathis parents nicknamed him "Door-
Knobs. " But ho is as big as any two-
year-old baby now , and ho relented the
idea of having thirteen ounces of hu
manity palmed off on him for u sister.
" /Cat ain't no baby , it's a wat , " tuid
"Door-Knobs' ' with disgust when ho
was given the lirst peep at his little sister -
tor , whoso head iB'covorod with : i coat
of thick dark hair.i "Door-Knobs" had
ii different idea of his sister yesterday
ind called her "Tommy , " after the
imaginary ghost l\lat \ was wont to bo
conjured up by his nuntio to frighten
liim into quietude whenever ho became
obstreperous.
The 115-ouni'o infant is the fourth
child born to Mr. nnd Mrs. Willis. The
first two. who are elpad , weighed eight
nnd nine pounds respectively. The
third , "Door-Knobs , " weighed but four
pounds. But , though of shall begin
ning , ho has nourished , and is in the
best of health. The father , Mr. Wiilis ,
is five feet eleven inches tall , and
weighs 185 pounds. Mrs. Willis is of
medium height , Mid weighs 1--5 pounds.
The only precedent for diminutivoncBS
of the baby outside of that furnished by
"Door-knobs , " is the case of the mother.
She is the twin sister of Mrs. Robert
Willis , nnd both when born weighed
about three pounds. "Tommy" is in
the best of baby health , and the physi
cian says its chances for life are ns good
ns if he woighoel half a ton. The father
doesn't allow the lack of a few ounces
to interfere with his rejoicing over the
latest born , and takes ns much pride in
it as ho does in "Door-Knobs. " The
only apprehension felt is that u hungry
mosquito may slip in unawares and
make u meal of "Tommy" before being
discovered.
If you are about to make a pudding , a
jelly , a cake or other article of pastry ,
don't my dear madam , if you have a duo
regard for your husband's , children's ,
or your own digestion , use any other
than Van Duzor's flavoring extracts.
They coutain no deleterious chemical
ingredients. The sterling flavors
named nro in every way worthy of your
confidence , since , they are delicious ,
pure nnd highly concentrated. Grocers

The terrible poisoning of rivers nnd
streams , b.v dumping into them the gar
bage of cities and largo towns , has be
come so serious that some device is
bought to avoid the danger , and the
need of incurring the danger. Several
European cities h.vvo carried sewerage
and garbage to public fields , to bo uti
lized on a systematic plan. The latest
device Is to cremate the garbage in fur
naces specially constructed for that pur
pose. Chicago has inaugurated the
plan from dire necessity. England has
largely put the plan in practice , mil is
well satisfied. Forty-five English towns
are already using furnaces. Tlio Chicago
cage furnnco disposes of fiftv tons a
day. Dr. J. M. Keating , of Memphis ,
says : "There is no real safety hut by
cremation ; " and ho is sure that Yankee
ingenuity , now on the right track , will
furnish the best and cheapest furnace.
It is evident to casual observers that
our streams must not any longer biilTcr
polution. Epidemics of the worst sort
may bo expected from such a source.

years ago Captain-Lane , a Maine sailIng -

and became u missionary on his own
hook. His work was to go from settle
ment to settlement organizing Sunday
schools , getting them in good running

of suitable persons to go to another
Hold. Now that ho is in charge ot the
Alert his field lies all along the const
troin North Carolina on the south to the
