SNOW IN STREETS A SERIOUS PROBLEM
Motor Compear Heqaested te R(nr
It, bat Cltr Has No Montr
Which to Do Its Share
of tho Work.
The city council, on convening in ad
journed session yesterday ifternoon, lost
no time In rescinding Its action of last Mon
day night In refunding the taxes for four
year on the Union Driving park. As soon
as Alderman Olson, who waa presiding In
the absence of Mayor Macrae,. had called
the meeting to' order Alderman Weaver
offered a motion, seconded by Alderman
McMillen, to rescind the previous aotlon,
and the motion was carried unanimously'
and without a single word of, discussion. In
view of the general protest against the re
funding of the taxes the action of the city
council yesterday afternoon was antici
pated. The city council. In acquiescing In the
request of the Union Driving Park company
to refund the taxes for 111, 19c2, 1903 and
1904, and to remit those for 1906, did only
what Its predecessors had done for several
years. The records of the city council
show that for Afteen years or more back
the company regularly appeared before the
council with a request that Its taxes be re
mitted and that the request waa duly
granted. This, however, the company had
neglected to do for the last four years and
the result was that the property waa sold
at the delinquent tax sale last December.
The council also discussed the question
of requiring the motor company to remove
from the streets the snow which it has
swept off Its tracks. In many places It ha
become an obstruction on the street, but
the aldermen failed to find any ordinance
by which they could compel the motor com
pany to remove the snow. Attorney Tlnley,
who appeared on behalf of the motor 'comi
pony, stated the company was prepared to
do its share If the city would do Its. This
latter proposition, however, proved a prob
lem that the aldermen confessed they were
not prepared to solve for the simple reason
that the streets and alley committee had
entirely depleted the fund for cleaning the
streets and with the city treasury bank
rupt nothing could be done In this respect.
It wn suggested as a sort of compromise
that the motor company at least remove the
snow from the principal street crossings,
which are now almost impassable from the
banks of snow swept from the oar tracks,
and thla Attorney Tlnley promised would
be done.
After disposing of some minor routine,
matters the aldermen visited Vine street to
Inspect the paving recently completed by
Contractor Wick ham and pass upon the as
sessment schedule. Contractor Wlckham
obligingly had the snow removed In patches
from the paving so that the aldermen could.
Inspect It. It was decided that the city
would have to bear about 1400 of the cost
of the Improvement, some of the abutting
property being of Insufficient value to stand
the entire amount assessed against it.
The council adjourned to Monday night,
February . . , .

WOMAN III CLUB AND CHARITY
Mrs. May Alden Ward, vice president of
the General Federation, has the following
to say regarding the press In an editorial
In the February Bulletin, the official organ
of the General Federation of Womon's
Clubs:
It is apparent thst we cannot undertake
4o publish routine reports of Individual club
a.-tivtty. ... A general organ published
once a month cannot hope to compete with
th dally papers In the matter of local In
telligence, nor would It be desirable to do
so if we could. We regard the dally and
weekly press as the greatest ally of the
clubs. It Is Indispensable to the success of
the club movement, buth local and general,
nd therefore must always be encouraged
to a-lve club Intelligence whenever It Is pos
sible." The Bulletin thus outline It policy
of representing In a large way the entire
club movement. This Is precisely the Intent
of a general organ, and, the poilcy carried
out. the m gamine will become a necessity
to every active club In the country.
This appeal for masculine attention meets
With heartiest approval: "We ought to re
member that it Is th busy American man
who needs awakening on all our civic and
social subjects, even more than do the
women. Stop and ask yourself how many
periodicals does your husband read which
lreat In any serious way the problems
wntcn we are Treating in every pumper,
and practically In almost every pge of the
magazine you are now reading. The fact Is.
there are hut few such publications of any
kind, even when we enumerate the entire
number. What wonder If the American
man la the easy victim of his political
director, who wisely employs every advnp
tege which paper and Ink enn lay before
him and sees to It thnt no day passes In
whlrh the alluring halt Is not temptingly
hsld up. as If partv leaders and party spoils
were the only ohlects In life worth living
for? As nn antidote to all this, what are
w doing to meet the untiring efforts of
self-seeking Influences? Mow long will It
tnke to convince the women and to nrrest
the attention of the men, at such a rate of
progress as this?"
Trained' nurses of Illinois are making
another effort to secure; through legisla
tion, a system of registration such as ob
tains in several other states. Miss Helen
McMillen, president of tho State Association
of Graduated Nurses, has sent out a circu
lar, asking assistance In the plan. Its ob
ject being to rnlse the standard of the
profession In the state.
The Central Board of Education of Tltts
burg has recently mado an appropriation
of 16,000 for the maintenance of summor
'playgrounds in that city this coming Bum
mer. Last year an appropriation of S3.S00
was made. This Increased appropriation
has . befen lifrgely influenced through the
