The mayor proieated In vigorous language. against the action of the council at Its previous meeting In granting Stein permission to leave the shack on the lot facing Broadway In the business portion of the city. He contended that the council hud acted Illegally in granting any person authority to violate a city ordinance, which, n.4 chief executive of the city was supposed to see were enforced. After considerable, discussion, on motion of Councilman Knud sen, who claimed he was not fully cognizant of all the circumstances In the case, when ut the previous meeting he voted In favor of allowing Stein to retain the building at lis present location, the council voted to reconsider its former action, Councilman Alaloney alone voting In the negative. Th whole matter was then referred to City Solicitor Kimball to recommend what pro- ceodings should bo brought to compel 8tln to remove the obnoxious structure. ,, .. . . . . , Councilman Knudsen protested against me Anuei.Her-j.uscn iirewutg company lug granted permission to build a driveway In front of Its new structure on Main street, llo said the driveway hud been pm.ally built and the sidewalk torn Up before per mission had been granted or sought of tho council.

MAN SON Jack Whitney, a young man employed on the bly deam dredge which is digging the Purgatory slough canal, was drowned shortly after midnight Ihsi night iti'llie channel at a point about eight miles southwest of this pluce. Whitney, In company with, the night rtreman, was on his way from the boarding houso boat to Iho dredge in a Scow, which capsized lu nine feet of water. Whitney could nm swim, and his companion had great diffi culty in getting out. anything you choosemilk for instance or alone. At every meal or for a munch between meals, when you feel the need of an appetizing bite to fill up a vacant corner, in the morning when you wake hungry, or at night just before going to bed. Soda crackers are so light and easily digested that they make a perfect food at times when you could not think of eating anything else. But as in all other things, there is a difference in sod crackers, the superlative being Uneeda Biscuit a soda cracker so scientifically baked that all the nutri tive qualities of the wheat are retained and developed a soda cracker in which all the original goodness is preserved for. you.
