NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS Doctors Take Up for Discussion the Subject of the City's Drinking Water. PRESENT QUALITY ROUNDLY DENOUNCED Will Tryto Ktijoln tlin North Omnlm Sowrr Stricture * on tlin Conip'injr lr * Mncrne UcfoinU Ihn MIHiiiirl HI a Hourco of Supply. A meeting of the regular physician * of the city was called for Wednesday evening to consider the water supply question , which has been agltAtmg the people of Council Bluffs for the past few years. Fourteen re sponded and a lively discussion was had upon that all-important topic. Some of the physicians tonic the water company to task In extreme terms for the filthy condition ot the water which is dished up lor drinking purposes. Dr. C. H. Plnney even went so far as to offer to buy $10.000 worth of stock In a company to be orga nUed for the purposes of digging artesian wells and conveying the water from the vicinity of the famous Mynstcr springs. o'J'ho recent opening of the North Omaha sewer at a point several miles above whore the water supply of this city Is taken from the Missouri river wan made the subject ol a resolution requesting the city conned to take some immediate action toward having fiilch a state of affairs prevented by legal measures in the United States courts if nec essary. The same resolution recommended that the council compel the water company to Illter the water furnished the citizens. DiifumliMt tint Alusourl. City Physician Macrae , in a conversation on the subject yesterday , stated that ho did not think the strong language against the Missouri river as a source of drinking water supply was Justitlcd , "Tho Missouri river water is the best in the world , " said ho ; "whatever fault is to bo found must be laid at the door of the coni- | pany. I presume that there Is six feet of lilth in the bottom of the reservoirs , and It is to that fact that wo must ascribe the oc casional llmling ot a llsh scale or some other uncanny object In the water we are supposed to drink. " Dr. Macrae Intends to have a chemical analysis of the water made by the state chemist in order to determine whether or not it is actually unlit for use from a sani tary standpoint. Samples will be taken from the river at a point as far below the two citius as the source of the present water supply Is below - low the mouth of the North Omaha sewer , in order to ascertain whether the river scours itself in that distance. Other specimens will also bo taken from the hydrants and a thorough analysis will be made. The Board of Health will be called together cither today or tomorrow in order that immediate action mr > y bo taken. CKIAT HAMMOCK At tlio IloHtrm Store * .

An alarm clock , according to the habit of the boast , always goes on"at the wrong time and in a thin-walled building it al ways succeeds in waking the whole house as well as its owner. The wear and tear upon the temper of the com munity is consequently greater than that caused by the combined efforts of a forgetful janitor and an intermittent elevator. A young man in an uptown house in Washington , who has been in the habit of oversleeping himself , re cently purehabcd an alarm clock of imposing proportions , and n bell like a fire engine gong. As usual , says the i'ost , the thing went off about 3 a. m. and the owner , who had just fallen into a souml sleep , leaped wildly from his couoli under the impression that the honso was on fire or some other dire calamity had befallen. Occupants of adjoining rooms followed suit , and the objurga tions heaped upon that unhappy alarm clock were both loud and long. A policeman on the beat blow his whistle under the impression- a riot was it. progress , and the whole neighborhood was aroused. Meanwhile tlio owner ol the clock tried to stillo it in the bed' clothes , but still it hammered uwui vehemently and made more racket thnr over. Finally , in despair , ho plungci the riotous timepiece into a jar full o water , whore , at the expense of rninitif its inner mechanism , its voice win stilled.

Mr. Stallors , foreman of tno crow on that cnglno , refused to go to work with the now man. Ho said the work on the hill was hard and dangerous and ho refused to go on with the new switchman. Mr. Tungato agreed with the foreman that it would bo hotter to give him an old man and did so. The now man was then nut on an other engine and alt the men wont to work. Nothing unusual took place during the night. It was reported on the street that Stallors would not take the now man on his engine " because ho was a "sea ! ) , " hut that was "not the excuse ho gave Tuugato. Mr. Tungato was seen by a Ilni : reporter about 10 o'clock. He is a pleasant man to meet and goes about his work as though ho knew what ho was doing. Ho said : " 1 was never a member of any organization what ever of laboring men. 1 never cared to Join. Unions are all right for those who want to Join them , but 1 never did. 1 have taken churgo of these .yards and will omleavor to kfrop good men around me. Tlio fact that a man does or does not belong to the union will not cut any figure with me. All I want Is a man to do his work. The old men who wcro at work hero when I came on will not bo discharged because they belong to the urlon. 1 know that I was not the man they wanted Mr. Uabcock to hire , but 1 can't help that. Yes , 1 have put on two men who worked with mo for the Uur- lington company in Onmhn. They were anxious , to come down here , and as there was an opportunity I put them on. " "Aro they what the union men term scabs ? " "I don't Know ; I never inquired. " All the special police were sent out again last nlirht for duty. Three of those ap pointed Wednesday night did not show up , and now ones were appointed in their places. The now specials are Joseph Albrecht - brecht , M. Click and .1. H. I'ompory. The men worked throughout Wednesday niiht and no disturbance took place. Three of the old men have neon let out and three now ones have taken their places. A meeting of the union switchmen was held \Vcdncsday night , but the result of their conference was not made public. There was a rumor set alloat yesterday morning that the engineers and Hrctnen would wallt out tonight , together with the union switchmen , but none of the switch men would admit this to bo a fact. Manager Babcoek ' said yesterday morning that he was satislled'thero would oono trouhlo whatever. Noilfc of the union men would ho discharged unless for eood cause. Some of the switchmen hail worked there for live or six years and they could stay that much longur if they attended to their work. Tun gate would not bo allowed to discharge any man on purely personal grounds or because he belonged to the union.

He had accepted some of the loftiest traditions about womanhood that men sometimes read and talk about , anil ho looked for his ideal companion. One night ho mot her in the drawing room of a London friend , who. without his knowing it , had brought the young lady to meet the eyes of the great writer. It was a .liino night ; ho was U5 , and she looked like a Greek goddess. lie was dax.xled. She was a tall , grace ful girl of 10 , witli a face and figure as faultless as ono of the htatnes of old. No one over expected Kuskin to fall in love and lie did not. She was poor , needed a homo and its comforts , and bo they wore married. Their wedded lifo was peaceful , friendly , kindly to the highest degree , but there was not a spark of alTcction t enlighten their existence. She admire the great man aho had married and was grateful for the wealth and comfort ho showered on hot1. lie worshiped her as ho would the marble made lifelike by the sculptor's chisel. There was nothing human about the life they led as husband and wife , and she was a woman who , in her heart , like all true women , laughed at the tradi tions that made her sex love distant wor ship.Ono Ono day Ruskin brought an artist to paint his wifo's picture. And the man was Millais , and ho was a bright , cheery , handsome fellow , human , every inch of him , with a great and absorbing love for the beautiful and a willingness to toll of his love. l c began to paint the portrait of the magnificent woman , and when ho had finished lie was in love with his friend's wife. wife.Womanlike Womanlike ) she saw it , and perhaps she was not full of sorrow and reproach. It was the first tribute of real manly love that had over lain at her feet. And Ruskin ! His wide oycs saw the romance that was weaving around tho&o two lives and his heart realized how lit tle alTcction lie had to lavish on the woman whom ho had made his wife. How lie told her the story of his pride in her and the sacrifice he was to inako for her , while she lay prone at his feet , is ono of the things which only ho or she could toll. It is dillicult to obtain a divorce in England , but John Ruskin secured it for her , and ono bracing morning in the early winter , a month after the divorce was granted , Ruskin stood beside the couple in one of London's quiet churches and saw them made man and wife. That was a peed many years ago , and since then Millais has become rich and famous and is now Sir John and nis wife is my Lady Millais. DTlio wannest , sturdiest friend the struggling painter had in his toiling days was the man whoso wife ho hud married , and through all the years of Millais' later success and greater honor John Ruakin lias boon the welcome guest and almost daily visitor to the man and woman whoso lives ho so niibellishly crownud with happiness. It is a strange story , and the world knows little about it , and some men have condemned him , as some women have censured her. Hut the two men and that ono woman who know best have been happy and contented with the change that John Rnskin's pure tinsel- llshnesri brought into their lives. And bo the world should not complain. Itodiirlnt ; KipeilBcu. Et.KiuitT , Ind. , July 20. The Lake Shore , t Michigan Southern road laid off 100 um < plopes today to reduce expenses.
