PROPERTY OWSEH9 VP IW ARMS
Tkmr on Indian Creek AllUll to
Hare Dralnaae Work Done.
That the owners of property wh.ch ha
periodically suffered damage by reason of
the overflowing of Indian creek will not
permit the proposition to divert the waters
of this turbulent and erratic stream to be
shelved by the city council or any other
body was made evident at a largely at
tended and enthusiastic meeting last night
of the Fifth Ward Improvement club,
which was specially called to discuss this
problem.
The meeting, as a starter, adopted reso
lutions commending Mayor Maloney for the
stand he has taken In this matter and as
suring him of the club's hearty support.
Present at the meeting were a number
of property owners who have year after
year suffered considerable loss by reason
of the overflowing of the creek, and they
naturally expressed themselves as anxious
that something be done to avoid this dam
age In the future. After discussing the
proposition In all Its phases. It was deolded
to serve notice upon both the county and
city officials that they would be held re
sponsible for any further damage to prop
erty that might result from the overflow
of the creek. Accompanying these notices
the club will file a list of the property
which has suffered periodically from the
rampages of Indian creek, and the amount
of damage done to such property.
The club also decided to have new pe
titions asking for the diversion of the creek
prepared to conform with what City Solici
tor Kimball says Is the law on the subject
and when the requisite number of signers
Is secured, these will be filed with the
county supervisors as well as with the city
council.
The consenua of opinion as expressed at
the meeting was that the fault by the
special committee of which Councilman
Morgan was chairman, with the former
petition, was a mere quibble an! solely for
the purpose of shelving the proposition.
The proposition, however, will not be per
mitted to die a natural death, but will be
kept a live Issue as the property owners
in attendance at last night's meeting are
determined to protect their property If possible.
There was considerable talk yesterday
among owners of property along and In
the Immediate vicinity of Indian creek of
forming an organisation and employing
legal help to carry on the fight for the
diversion of the water of the creek. A
number of Interested property owners ex
pressed their willingness to contribute to
wards the necessary expense of securing
legal assistance and It is likely that a
meeting of property owners Interested In
the proposition will be called In the near
future.

TTp to daf the Board of Education has
been unable to dispose of the proposed
Issue of $57,000 refunding bonds and the
$S7,000 of bonds which matured several
months ago, remaining In a local bank to
which the school district is paying Inter
est at the rate of B per cent. The present
situation results frcm the failure of the
Board of Education to make any provision
for taking care of the successive bond is
sues as they fell due.
At a special meeting of the board Mon
day night the offer of M. W. Halsey A
Co. of Chicago for the proposed Issue of
$57,000 refunding bonds was rejected. The
Chicago firm required that the school dis
trict should levy each year a tax which
would bring in one-tenth of the amount
of the bond Issue and accrued Interest.
This meant that there would have to be
obtained by levy of a tax about $4,000 each
year In addition to $2,800, the Interest on
the bonds. The $6,000 levied each year
would have to remain In some bank until
the bonds matured at the expiration of
ten years without drawing any interest.
there is no provision whereby the dis
trict could put this money out on interest.
Falling to secure better terms from the
Chicago firm, the board, it Is said, will
endeavor to place the bonds with local
parties.

Complaints
of Violations
Fire and Police Commissioner. Say
Complainin,' Persons Should Go to
Proiecutin; Officer.
The Board of Fire ar.d Police commis
sioners received a communication at the
meeting Tuesday from the Antl-Paloon
eague of Douglas county which asserted
that gambling rooms were running at dif
ferent places within the city and that the
o'clock closing law which governs the
saloons was being violated by the Rome
and Henshaw bars and other saloons.
The communication asserts that three
roulette tables and a Klondike game has
been conducted over the Budwelser siloon
at 1409 Douglas street for thirty days by
W. E. Nesselhous and Henry Sherman. It
also alleges that Richard S. Berlin has been
conducting a gambling house at the Wind
sor hotel for thirty days by operating a
roulette table, a game of faro and that
Frank Sampson has been operating a
gambling resort in the top floor of the
Murray hotel at rare Intervals.
The communication asserted ' that evi
dence of other violations of the 8 o'clock
law could be furnished. .
The board does not Consider It their duty
to take evidence against such violations
and believes that' If the persona who made
these complaints have sufficient evidence,
that It Is their duty to swear to a com
plaint and cause the arrest of the guilty
persons.
The board Indicated tt Is a body created
to act on the reports charging officers with
neglect of duty. Commissioner Hunter
made a motion that action on the communl-
tlon be deferred until the legal status
of the situation was Investigated.
In explaining his cause for action he
said, 'This board Is not a court to receive
evidence of law violations, but tJ receive
evidence of neglect of du'.y of the c.V fleers
and merr.bere of the police ar.fl fire ,15jart-
ment. I have received complaints of this
character by telephone, but have advised
the person to appear before the city or
county attorney and swear to a complaint
thua causing a warrant for their arrest to
be Issued. I have offered to accompany
them, but they fall to appear. We, as a
board, have no Jurisdiction to hunt or re
ceive evidence of this character, if I under
stand the laws correctly, and I think that
these persona should make their com
plaints elsewhere. If I find that the com
plaints are made to the officers of the
police department and that they neglect
to do their duty, I would recommend their
discharge, but the complainants do not
pursue this course." The other members
of the board acquiesced In his opinion.
r
hi One of the Important Duties of Physicians and h
is to-learn as to the relative standing: and rrliability of the leading manufactur
ers of medicinal agents, as the most eminent physicians are the most careful as' to
the uniform quality and perfect purity of remedies prescribed by them, and it is well
known to physicians and the Well-Informed generally that the California Fig Syrup
Co., by reason of its correct methods and perfect equipment and the ethical character of
its product has attained to the high standing in scientific and commercial circles which
is accorded to successful and reliable houses only, and, therefore, that the name of the
Company has become a guarantee of the excellence of its remedy. '
TRUTH AND QUALITY
appeal to the Well-informed in every walk of life and are essential to permanent suc
cess and creditable standing, therefore we wish to call the attention of all who would
enjoy good health, with its blessings, to the fact that it involves the question of right
living with all the term implies. With proper knowledge of what is best each hour
of recreation, of enjoyment, of contemplation and of effort may be made to contribute
to that end and the use of medicines dispensed with generally to great advantage, but
as in many instances a simple, wholesome remedy may be invaluable if taken at the
proper time, the California Fig Syrup Co. feels that it is alike important to present '
truthfully the subject and to supply the one perfect laxative remedy which has won
the appoval of physicians and the world-wide acceptance of the Well-Informed because
of the excellence of the combination, known to all, and tbe original method of manufac
ture, which is known to the California Fig Syrup Co. only.
This valuable remedy has been long and favorably known under the name of .
Syrup of Figs and has attained to world-wide acceptance as the most excellent of
family laxatives, and as its pure laxative principles, obtained from Senna, are well
known to physicians and the Well-informed of the world to be the best of natural
laxatives, we have adopted the more elaborate name of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of
Senna as more fully descriptive of the remedy, but doubtless it will always be
called for by the shorter name of Syrup of Tigs and to get its beneficial effects always
note, when purchasing, the full name of the Company California Fig Syrup Co. -plainly
printed on the front of every package, whether you simply call for Syrup of
Figs or by the full name Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna as Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of Senna is the one laxative remedy manufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. and the same heretofore known by the name Syrup of Figs which has given
satisfaction to millions. The genuine is for sale by all leading druggists throughout
the United States in original packages of one size only, the regular price of which
is fifty cents per bottle.
Every bottle is sold under the general guarantee of the Company, filed with the
Secretary of Agriculture, at Washington, D. C , that the remedy is not adulterated or
misbranded within the meaning of the Food and Drugs Act, June 30th, 1906,
