minutes In transacting business Init night ,
nil the lemalndcr or the evening In a tertians
quabble over an effort on tlio | < m of certain
members of the majority to transfer tbo
IIOWP B of llic superintendent of Instruction
relative to tbe transfer of pupils
to tlio piwldent of tbe board Ibo
trouble grew out of tbe effort Hint was made
at the beginning of the term to moblll/o tin-
IWplls In the Mhrols In which they belonged
nltli a view , to readjusting the boundaries to
do away with I ho extensive transfer system
which has become an admitted nuisance. The
board voted ut the last regular meeting to
( impend nil transfers , except In emergency
case , fo- the Ilrst six weeks of the tonn
Thelo was such a protest from parents when
the schools opened , that some of the mcmberB
llred of the continual pressure , and at tilt ,
follow'ng special meeting the previous action
was rescinded and the rule was left as before.
Since then some or the member * of the boirl
have liu-ii iKsiilng transfers on their own
nulhorlty , and Superintendent Pea se In r
Ictur of Information to prlncliuls directed
them to icfer all snob permits to the superin

produced a copy of this letter last night
and Insisted that It wasan Insult to the

It was 11 pretty state or affairs when an "em
ploye" of the hoard took It on himself to
over Irte the aiders of a member He tuo\cc
that the president of the board should be

mlutlty raised the point that the rulej pro
vlded that this power ehould be vested o\
cluslvcly In the superintendent , and as the
majorltv did not hive the ten votes nocciBir >
to change the rules , the whole matter was

WHEELS CO WITHOUT LAMPS
Parrisli Ordinance is Bnricd by the Council
Committee.
DOCUMENT IS CONSIGNED TO THE FILES

\\unlil ll < > In ( In- Nature ot
The blcyclo lamp ordinance , recently Intro
duced In the council to compel blejcllsts to
carry lamp * on their wheels at night , is not
llkclj to become law In the Immodlato future.
At the conference meeting of the council In
committee of the whole sesterday afternoon
the ordinance waa burled for a timeat least
when the committee decided alnirst unani
mously to repo't at tonight's session that It
be placed on file. *
The wheelmen worn given a hearing on the
matter , and a half do7cn fought It out be
fore the council committee. J. W. 1'arl.sli.
the father of the ordinance , came with a pe
tition ot vslgners In favor of the ordinance
and a lot of arguments to suppoit It. Mr.
Cildwcll and J. I ) . Howe supported It. Dave
O'ililen and City Comptroller Westborg had
as positive n list of reasons why the orJl-
nanco should not bo passed.
The main argument In favor of the ordi
nance was that by carrjlng lamps , accldenls
nt night would be prevented. This was em
phatically contested by City Comptroller
Westbcrg , who held exactly to the opposite.
He maintained that by carrjlng a lamp , u
whcolmin was blinded ai.d could not sec
what was corning , as well as without a
lamp Ho also asserted that the fact that a
wheelman's light could bo seen , would not
prevent other vehicles from running Into
him , as accidents rarely occur ed , except w.th
"road hogs. " and thcs would not give an
Inch of the road to a bt ! > cllst , whether ho
had a lamp or not Thus he nnlntalned that
a wheelmen with a lamp was In greater dan
ger at the hands of these "road bogs" than
without , ab In the former ca e he was par
tially blinded by tbo glaio. The city comp-
trollfr ln Ked that K any lamp ordinance
was passed It ought to Include all vehicles , so
that blcjcllsts could have a much protection
as d hei-s This appeared to bo the opinion
of the majority of the councllmen.
President Hlngharu roll that according to
rocfiit court decisions , bicycles were classed
with buggies as vehicles , and , therefore , ho
thought that the or llnaiico would bo consid
ered class legislation , and consequently Il
legal.
LOIIECIC TO THE RESCUH
Ila\c O Drien Insisted that there was not a
lamp on the market at n nrl tvlfliin dm
reach of the average wheelman. Most of the
lamps would be blown uit in a strong winder
or else were continually out of repair. Mr.
Parish Insisted that there were a dozen
lamps on the market at moderate cost which
vould not go out The po'nt ' was clinched
bv Councilman Lobt-ck , who said that a
blcyclo dealer of the city had tcld him that
he was opposed to the ordinance , although
It would mean monry In his pockets If It
nere passed because there was not a good
lamp on the market Several of the councilmen -
men wanted to know how It was that If
bicycle lamps were such goal things the
\\heclrnen did not voluntailly uses them.
In the course of the arguments It was
claimed by each s'de , respectively , that
bicycle ordinances In other cities had anil
had not the desired result In vlow of theee
conflicting statements the council decided
to postpone action on the ordinance until
authorities in other cities could be requested
to give their experience In this regard.
The committee decided to recommend that
$50 bo appropriated to co\er the expenses
of City Engineer Ilosewater in attending the
annual session of the Rational Improvement
association at Nashville 'next month. This
body has a membership Including the en
gineers and chairmen of Boards of Public
Works of all the large cities In the country ,
Engineer Rosewater Is to bring the 1S9S
meeting back with him. The gathering
would bring about 300 delegates and their
families to the clfy.
J. li. Conte , a druggist on South Sixteenth
street , protested against the closing of the
Sixteenth street viaduct for repairs while
South Sixteenth street Is being pa\ed.
The committee passed upon a variety of
routine matter. Amongst other things it
was decided that the election booths be not
lepnlred this > ear. The expense , estimated
at $5,000 , Is more than the financial condi
tion of the city can stand. iTho resolution
that provided for the repairing is therefore
to be reported to be placed on file.
At the adjournment of the committee
meefc'ng ' the council met In special session
to pass on first and second reading the
ordinance providing for the repavl.ig of South
Sixteenth , from Pierce to Viiilon street , with
asphalt.
It was informally decided that the council
session of tonight should begin at 7 o clock
in order that adjournment might be taken
before the parade.

but It would babe been 1,1,000 If ho had had

I i c r s. W e
know nothing
o
else. We put our whole time and thought and
energy into the clothing business alone. When we
oaa go into the markets to buy goods we haven't got
jewelry or ribbons or hardware or bonnets or anything else but
clothing on our minds. We know what to buy and what to
avoid. We understand clothing. We are never deceived by
the clever imitations with which the markets abound. Even with
our extensive knowledge ' , we find it taxes all the watchfulness
and experience at our command to get honest goods goods
that will give our customers satisfaction goods that we can
o o
guarantee to wear. The rise in prices consequent on the
new tariff has given unscrupulous mills and makers a chance
to do a large business in inferior fabrics that look well but will
o
not wear and even the best posted buyers have to be on the alert
to avoid being deceived. Hence it is necessary for you to be
doubly careful. Buy only of a house on whose word you can
absolutely depend. Whose knowledge of the clothing business
is a safeguard on which you can lean. We do not stop at giving
you good goods. We give you good goods at less than the price
of cheap trash. See the splendid suits at eight dollars which we
open up today.
