extremely good things about women. She
t > ald Unit In all the United States them was
not a single monument elected In honor ot

to the statement fiuqticntly made that women
mo more moral than men and also to the
Ktateinent that in case women voted tlu-y

Pblng to the latter statement she said that

At n late hour last night the city council
In secret session adopted an ordinance grantIng -
Ing a fUty-jcnr franchise to the bridge line
motor company. A compromise was effected
on the disputed points of commutation tickets
nnd the I'lcrce street loop. In the ordinance
as It passed the council last night It Is pro
vided that commutation tickets good for
thirty rides shall be Issued for $1 50 , the
tickets to bo Irredeemable and uontransfer-
rlble. The Issue of these tickets Is to begin
Immediately on the passage of the ordinance
and to continue- far a period of fifteen jcais.
With regard to the Pierce sticet loop It is
provided that after IS'JS ' nnd for a period of ,
fifteen years every other motor train will
inn around the loop.
At the secret session which followed the
regular adjourned meeting of the council all
the members were piesunt The motor com
pany's charter was taken up and read sec
tion by section , us was also the ordinance
submitted by Mr. Sims of the citizens' com
mittee City Clerk Phillips tend the sections
In the company's ordinance nnd the major
championed the cause of the objectors by
leading the corresponding sections of the
citrons' ordinance.
Thu first section granting the extension
of fift > jcais was agreed to , Alderman
Casper : casting the only veto ugalnst It.
There were but alight differences In the
sections of the two papers until the 0110
was reached piovldlng fet a commutation
ticket. Then a. lung and hot debate took
place. Thu motor company's charter pro
vided for n ticket good for fifty rides within
thirty days from date for $2.50 , and the
other ordinance called for a twenty-ride
ticket good for a year for | 1. Alderman Pace
suggested a compromise ) on a forty-rlcje
ticket for $2 , and after a good deal of
Informal discussion n vote was taken and the
compromise was icjectcd A suggestion for
a thirty-ride ticket for $1.BO. met the ap
proval of several members and upon u vote
being taken all of the members voted for It
with the exception of Aldeunan Pace and
Graham , who had advocated the forty-ride
compromise.
When the proceedings had reached this
point and the two chief sticking points had
been passed , It looked PU If the whole mat
ter would have been speedily s ( tiled , but
nn unexpected snag was struck when the
section piovldlng for the trains around the
Pierce sticet loop was take-n up No other
two sections of the ordinance were neater
alike than these , the only difference being
the provision that aftci 1S9S , If the tralllc
did not warrant thu expense of this service
and the company could convince the council
of It the company should be relieved ot the
but den. Caspr was the Hist to oppose the
adoption of the section , and In doing to
went over the whole question of the Pierce
stieet agreement by which the compinj
promised to run Its Omaha trains over that
line. The matter reached a crisis when the
mayor took issue with the advocates of the
motor company's pioposltlon and announced
in a positive manner that he was favorable
to requiring tlio company to fulfill Its old
contract and in favor of compelling the com
pany to submit to such regulations as were
just and reasonable. Nearly an hour was
consumed by Aldermen Atkins and Casper
In arguing the necessity for the operation
of the main trains on that portion of the line
for the good of the business and pioperty
Interests of the eastern part of the city and
upper Broadway. The compromise provid
ing that alternate trains go round the loop
after the jear 1898 was reached after a long
discussion.
The first hour of the meeting was devoted
to the transaction ot Eomo routine business
that had accumulated on the clerk's desk
during the day. The clerk read an Invita
tion to the mayor and the aldermen to attend
the meeting of the International Association
of Mayors and City Councils which will be
held In Columbus , 0. , from September 28 to
October 1. Another invitation came from the
secretary of the National Irrigation congress ,
which will bo held at Lincoln , September
2S to 30. Both Invitations were referred to
the nnyor and city clerk.
The city bridge pay roll , amounting to $152 ,
and $10.20 to George S. Davis for paints used
In bridge repairing was allowed.
The question of granting the annual vaca
tion to firemen came up In the shape of a
report from the committee and a resolution
granting each member ten djjs In each jear
In addition to the regular day off every two
weeks , the time of the vacation to be fixed
by the chief of the department. There was
no objection to It when the aldermen learned
that other cities gave the firemen this , vaca
tion with pay.
A communication was received from Union
Veteran Legion camp asking the council to
assist In the effort to secure the next national
gathering of the organization for this ulty.
The communication was received and placed
on nio and the aldermen will do all that lies
In their power to assist the vctcians In their
laudable enterprise.
A resolution was Introduced , following a
petition asking for It , directing the con
demnation of the desired portion of Sixteenth
street through the Rolirer tract. It was not
passed , but the matter was referred to a spe
cial committee of three , to ho appointed by
the mayor , to confer with Sfr. Rohror and en
deavor to fix up a satisfactory compromise
as the price to bo paid for the strip of land.
The city marshal was directed to notify the
Northwestern Hallway company to extend Its
crossing at Thirteenth street to the full width
of the street. The council then went Into
executive session.

Frank Lomack , pastor of the Second
colored Baptist church of lies Molnes , was
compelled to give ball late last night to avoid
spending the night In the county jail.
The crime for which the colored
preacher was arrested was the failure
to pay 5 cents due on his dinner. Lomack
reached the city jesterday shortly before
noon and went Into Woolsej's restaurant on
Broadway to get his dinner. The prfce of
the regular mcil was 15 cents , just the
amount of money ho had In his possession.
He was hungry and the dinner set before
him did not meet all of the reqiiliements ,
EO he si'iit back for another plate of meit.
When ho tendered his 15 cents for the din
ner hu was told his bill was 20 cents , fi cents
for the extra meat. In addition to the
amount he had laid down on the counter ho
had 7 cents , which he claimed did not belong
to him , but the cashier refused to accept the
assertion as true and Insisted upon the full
amount being paid Lomack lefused to pay
the extra charge and left the restaurant
Thu attention of the proprietor was called
to the matter and he tiled an Information In

A story leaked out , and caused much talk
In political circles to the effect Hint thcro
Is A serious inUunde'RtamlIng between Chair
man C A Walsh of the democratic state
central committee and Fred K. White , demo
cratic candidate for governor It Is sil,1
their disagreements date bick to a period
months before the convention , which nomi
nated Mr. White for governor Sir Walsh
Is raid to have been strongly opposed to the
nomination or White and In favor of J. H.
Uurgesa of Ottumna. It Is said he u ed the
Influence of his position as national com-
mlttccman for Iowa In the Interests of
Durgess. Since the convention the relations
nre reported to have become even more
strained. Mr. White desired to make a cam-
nalgn on Rtata Issues and desired the com
mittee to push these to the front , holding
national questions In the background. On
the other hand , the chairman wanted national
Issues , especially the silver question , to be
made the fighting g-ound , and has been
ducting his part of the campaign along these
lines. The story continues that thcro Ins
been a violent rupture of factions between
the two an a result , and that It may continue
and develop Into a serious condition. Mr.
Walsh 5tlll holds the fort , and Sir. White
llkcwl'c declines to agree to push the na
tional l sucs.
Sir. Walsh today , when Interviewed about
the reports , said they were absolutely un
founded He declared that the relations
between himself and the candidate for gov
ernor were most friendly and that there was
no foundation for the stories , except the Im
agination or people who wanted to stir up
trouble.

made as the woman was preparing to get
Into her bed. The dog pounced upon her
almost without warning , taking one ot her
cars In Its mouth. As she turned over to
protect herself , It turned on her and bit hoi
frightfully In the neck nearly E-everlng the

She \vas TC'cued from her perilous position
by a young woman 'who was In the next

Contrary to all expectations , the miners'
strike In this district took on a new and more
serious phase than ever today. The expecta
tion twenty-four hours ago was that the
mem would have by tonight practically given
up their fight for an Increased scale , be
cause the men In the employ of the Christy
and DCS Slolnes mines refused to join them
In the sttlke. Today the Des Slolnes com
pany's men went ojt In fi body , to the num
ber of 240. and the Christy men are ex
pected to follow them tomorrow. The addi
tion to the strike assures that the operators
will be unable to fill the local demand for
coal , to say nothing of the contracts which
they have for railroad and manufacturing
supplies. The operators are weakening todaj ,
and there Is a disposition on the part of
nearly all to concede the terms demanded by

WASHINGTON , Sept. 8 Senator Forakcr
of Ohio and Senator Harris of Kansas , who
are members of a subcommittee appointed by
the Pacific railroad committee of the senate
last May to Inquire Into the sinking fund of
the Union and Cential Pacific railroads and
other minor questions , had an Informal meet
ing today. Inasmuch as the committee was
appointed before the decree for the sale of
the Union Pacific was entered at Omaha It
was decided that nothing could bo done.
Senator Harris Is anxious that the decree
shall not bo carried out and the road sold
before the next session of congress. If the
attorney general should enter an appeal from
the Omaha decision , a question he is now
considering , it would carry the matter over
until the next session of congress. Senator
Foraker saw the attorney general a few
minutes today and ho and Senator Harris
have an engagement with him for tomorrow ,
at which the situation will bo discussed.

tion that has come to it in regard to the
report several days ago of the existence of
tuberculosis among the cattle at the State
college at Manhattan , Kan. The information
received today came from the regents of the
Kansas State Agricultural college and was In
a degree confirmatory of the published re
ports. It was stated , however , that a thor
ough test Is considered necessary.

riTTSUUUG , Sept. S. The coal operators
are uiiUBiuvlly actlvo In getting their mines
ready for operation. Mnnj are ready for a
start tomorrow. No doubt Is cxptessrd as
to the result of the convention at Columbus
and an order declaring the strike- off Is ex
pected before the close of the day. The
mules that have hem enjoying the lost
two months In pasture ha > o been called In
and blacksmiths at the mines hmu been
busy all week getting them icady for woik
In the mines. District President Dolau of
the mlncis' organization commended by
the operators for the stand he took In the
convention jcsterday. It Is believed that
all the mines in the I'lttslnirg dlstilct will
ba In operation before Monday momlng. A
number of lake shlppcts uirlvtul In
the city ftom Cleveland dutlng the day and
ave lusy making contracts with the pioduccis
for toal. There Is no tuilbbllng about ptlcc" .
and 20 cents above the mining price Is the
gcnetally accepted late. These prices will
likely bo maintained until after the In KM
contracts are filled , when thcro may bo an
attempt to buy coal chciper. The producers ,
however , are perfecting their oiganlzatlon
and declato they will sell no coal under 20
cents a ton abu\a mining.
COLUMHUS , O. , Sopt. S The Interstate
miners cotnen'lnn adjoinned this oAjnlng
until tomoirow morning without having
taken n vote on thu question of accepting
or tejecting the proposed settlement of the
strike The prospects of settlement aiu
somewhat doubtful , In fact a canvass of the
situation shows tint n majoiltj ofotcs ,
unless some change should bo brought about
will bo cast against It.

PITTSmmO , Pa. , Sept S The fight of the

Gas Coal company Is to beagel to iho bit
ter end. If the strike Is declared off In the
rest of the dlstilct at the Columbus ccmen
tion It will still bo kept up at the Do Armltt
mines. A secret conference between the
leaders of the miners and the camp leaders
has been held and a plan outlined for the
continuance of the fight This plan took defi
nite shape and will be presented to the con-
\entlon , where Its adoption Is an almost foie-
gene conclusion. The Idea Is to wage a na
tional fight agilnst this company.

April 4th , 1897.
I have been a great sufferer from
my "periods" . I had headache ,
bearing-down pains , whites , profuse
and too frequent menstruation , con
stipation and pains in my stomach. I
was confined to my bed eight or nine
days every time the menses came. I
don't think a woman could be much
sicker than I was. We had several
very skillful doctors but they did me
no good. I also took some so-called
female regulators without relief.
My husband read about Wine of
Cardui in our Savannah paper and
suggested that I try that. I finally
got it and have used two bottles , I used
to be sick nine days but the Wine has ' .

ing women. Mrs. LULA DE LYONS.
The best way to get relief from "female diseases" Is
to do as Mrs. De Lyons did take Wine of Cardui.
Other remedies sometimes give women temporary relief.
But for a certain permanent cure in ninety-nine cases out
of every hundred Wine of Cardui is what is needed. It
can be taken in the privacy of home without the humiliation
or expense of a physician's "local treatment" . And it
cures every kind of " female trouble' ' or weakness. $1.00
per bottle at drug stores.
