wcro rejected.
Tlio mayor , city altornoy , engineer nnd
two members of tlio city council , to bo se
lected by the mayor , wore appointed delo-
gntos to attend the convention of mayors , to
bo held nt DCS Molncs on tno tin and 5tb.
The Judiciary committee reported on the
bids for paving , rocominendluR that they nil
bo rojoctcd. Tills caused a kick from Pace ,
\vlio did not think tlio contractors vvuro
being piven 11 fair deal by bolnc comnollod to
blti on llio same work rupoutodly and tticn
hnvo their bids rejected by wholesale ,
liroun snld thcro were legal objections to
the bids , so hn had been Informed bv the
city attorney. nUhoiigh ho Jld not know
what the objections wore. City LtaRincpr
Foslovln said thnt so far as ho know tlio
mam uldlculty was thui the city was not
ready to pave , the pradlng and curbing not
yet beliiR done on the streets In question.
After some discussion the report was ro-
fotrcd back to the Judiciary committee with
Instructions to report more fully nt tuo next
mooting.
Aidcrmnn Gasper moved to reconsider the
action of the council at tbo last meetlne ,
nlloulnp J. W. Paul to do the Rrndinz of
North Twenttotb street from Avenue
G to the alloy south nt his own expense -
ponso , ho having fulled to show
the reloiiso from tno contractor ns icqulrod
by llio resolution. Wind thought Casucr
\vus lalblng alnrgo row about a very small
mutter , and suggested that Mr. Paul bo
given a lltllo more time In which to tend
to the business. Graves , Pace and Smith
thought so too , ana the motion to reconsider
was llnally lost.
A petition was piesontcd by Aldormnn
Smith , bearing the signatures of all the
owners on Second avenue uotween
Property and Sixteenth streets and tuning
that a sidewalk bo laid on liotb sides of the
uvcnuo. It was referred to the committee
on streets and nllevs.
A number of petitions for refund or rovls
Ion of taxes wore loferrod.
Aldermnu Van Brunt stated that ho had
seen tame complaints In Tin : Tin : on account
of the ilarkncss nt the corner of Pearl street
nnd Droadway , und he would like -to have
the matter loforrcd to the committee on
lights , In order that it might be docldca
whether the demands of the property own
ers in the vicinity should ho acceded to or
not. It was referred.
Alderman Pace stated that as the council
had decidsd not to rent onices , he thought it
a good idea to have plans drawn by an archi
tect for improvements on the city building.
Ho suia plan * had already been diawn by C.
C. Bell , and they wcro submitted to the
council for examination. The ilrst
Iloor contained offices far the
clerk , auditor , treasurer and engineer
ginoer , with a vault for oacli one excepting
the engineer , while on the .second Iloor was a
council chamber 40x'J3 feet , with a railing
separating the council from the audience.
On this door were also ofllccs for the mayor
and city attorney und a Jury room. The
nimenslons of the "building ns proposed are
GUxoS feet nnd two stories high , while the
on is estimated at about * . > , OOU. The mat
er was loft in the hands of the , special com
mittee.
About this tlmo there was a vigorous and
proniedlnteil kick on the part of the property
owners In the western part of the city , on
account of the neglect with which they had
boon treated. A larjro hole on Tbirtv-
fourth street between Broadway nnd avenue
A ivas the primary causa of the wail , and
while they were about it they found fault
with the sidewalk , which they claimed was
'inblo to cause the fracture ot the litnos and
locks of those who had to walk on It. They
also kicked bccnuso they bad no flre or
police protection , and no water works. J. J.
Crow , who was one of the chief comuloin
ants , said ho would spend every dollar he
had in suing the city unless ho nnd bis fel
low * were granted immediate satisfaction.
The petition was referred to the committee
on streets and allovs.

Dus Moixcy , la. , Fob. 1. [ Special Telo-
Kram to THE Br.K.J Democrats in both the
senate and house have held separate caucuses
und In each discussed the saloon question.
Tbo result Is ttiut all democratic legislators
now support what Is known as the Schmidt
olll. Senator Schmidt Is author of tbo bill
and It Is practically the same bill that ho In
troduced two years ago and is the ono that
was made tbo basis of the democratic platform
last fall. Tbo committee on suppression of
intemperance In the senate will report the bill
favorably some day this week and it Is ex
pected that It will bo made a special order
for Friday. It is quite evident that the bill
will pass tbo senate. To pot it through the
house will require the vote of Campbell , the
people's party representative , whoso record
is that of a prohibitionist , and five repub
lican votes , or six republican votes uithout
Campbell.
It Is claimed by oomo antl-prohlbiliontsts
that those will bo forthcoming , but no names
are given. It is said a Joint republican caucus
will bo hold on the subject and an effort
made to bold all republicans to the caucus
decision. There Is fear that this cannot be
donn , sufllclent to cause uneasiness in prohi
bition ranks.
Following IB n synopsis of the Schmidt
bill as modified by the democratic caucus :
' A special election may bo he'd on the
question of granting or refusing license upon
petition of one-llfth of the voters of any city
or Incorporated town or of the portion of a
county outside of cities and incorporated
towns , no other questions being voted on at
the same election. The license fee cannot bo
less than $500 a year , payable quarterly In
advance , and Is to bo granted py the
district court upon proof of the
good moral caaractor of the applicant.
Of this , $125 in case it Is granted in n cltv or
Incorporated town goes into the general fund
of tbo county and tbo balanoo into the gen
eral fund of the municipality. When granted
not In an incorporated town or city it will go
into the general fund of the county. All
licenses are to expire on the last day of
December. Selling to minors , intoxicated
persons or habitual drunkards is punished
by a line not exceeding tlOO or Im
pugnment In the county jail not ex
ceeding twenty days. Loss of license
follows the second conviction. Any
person soiling without license may bo pun
ished by a Hue of not less than 100 nor more
than $500 , and by ItnprUoment In the county
jail not less than thirty days nor more than
150 das. . The bond is fixed at $2,000. Per
mits to tell for medical , mechanical and
chemical purposes will bo granted to regis
tered pharmacists without fee and a penalty
for violation Is made a line of not less than
(10 uor more than ? 1UO or by Imprisonment In
the county Jail not longer than thirty days. "

HOW TO TELL A STORY .
KUl Can In- lined , lint It Slioiilil Ho Con
tra stril lth ( ioixl.
It socins to us that in good fiction ovi
must appear as a foil for good ; that it
must bo set over against righteousness
so as to make black blaclf indeed and
white purely white , says a writer in the.
Cliiiutuuqujin. '
The story teller need have no express
moral hobby to rldo post haste ; ills tale
will bo all the better if told with the
pure love of story tolling ; but wo may
lie quite sure that his taste Is unsound
if ho chooses a salacious story to tell
and gives it the unction of personal re
hearsal. Here , indeed , is whore wo
would draw the lino. Evil can bo iibed
by the artist with clean hands and to
wholesome elTect by contrasting it
with a healthy , solid projection
of good. The chief trouble with
current realism is that it does not do
this , but chooses to set hopeless evil and
nerveless commonplace side by side
without any triumphant moral heroism
to dominate or neutralize it.
The ethics of fiction shines in the
character , the moral nature of the story ,
more than in the ostensible or oven tno
actual , moral purpose of the author. It
is the genorai olToct that the work is
likely to produce when read by tlio
aggregate of readers which must'bo a
largo clement of the test.

N. J. , has just purchased a mule , which
certainly is not less than 81 years old ,
and ho says he can run away from some
of the fastest horeos in Bergen county.
White hnirod men remember trying in
effectually to ride Kiohard that is the
mule's name when they were boys. Ho
was a venerable animal then , and ho has
a saw-like buck that it was very dilllcult
to sit upon oven whpri ills heels wore
still. ,
Richard McMains , who sold Richard
the mule , to Mr. McCirthy , says ho is
more active now than ho was half a cen
tury ago. Ho was never an army mule.

Some interesting observations relat
ing to the surgical treatment of wounds
by birds were recently brought by M.
Fntio before tha Physical sooioty of
Geneva , says tlio Medical Record , Ho
quoted the case of tho/ ; snipe , which ho
hud often obborvod engaged in repairing
damages. With its be ilk and feathnrs
it makes a very cioditnbto dressing , ap
plying plasters to ble'cding wounds and
even securing a broken limb by means
of a btout ligature. On ono occasion ho
killed a snipe which hud on the chest a
largo dressing composed of down taken
from other paitsof the body and se
curely fixed to the wound by tlio coagu
lated blood. Twice he hud brought
homo snipes with interwoven feathers
strapped on to the site of the fracture of
one or other limb ,
The most interesting example was
that of a snipe , both of whoso logs ho
had undoubtedly broken by a misdir
ected shot. He recovered the animal
only on the day following und lie then
found that the poor biiu hud contrived
to apply dressings ana u sort of splint to
both limbs. Tn carrying out this oper
ation Boino leathers had become en
tangled around the beak and. not being
able to use its claws to got rid of thorn ,
it was almost dead from hunger when
