"Before you fully commit youreelf to my

Will File Injunction
on Hydrant Bills

Action Ordered by Meeting of Citizens
Improvement Club to Block Com
promise on Rentals.
The payment of the long-deferred fire
hydrant bills, which the city council at Its
meeting on Monday nUht agreed to pay
upon the bals of the compromise effected
with Manager K. W. Hart of the water
company, will not be made f a committee
appointed at the meeting of the Citizens'
Improvement club, held last night it the
city building, can prevent It. The club
selected a committee and Instructed it to
employ an attorney early this morning
and secure an Injunction to prevent the
payment of the money authnriied by the
council's action. A fund of $W0 waa
pledged by th members present as a
nucleus of a fund to be used in fighting
the payment of the bills, amounting to
138.77S.37. The committee was instructed
to engage an attorney this morning and
begin the necessary action. The commit
tee is composed of J. Chris Jensen, W. J.
Leverett and A. C. Keller. After each
of the other members had declined to ac
cept the chairmanship of the committee
Mr. Keller waa named, but not until after
he had left the building.
The city council came In for soma sharp
criticism for its action on Monday night
In settling the fire hydrant bills on the
bais of ") per hydrant when tho existing
rate ordinance, which went Into effect
after the waler company went into th
hands of a receiver, fixed the price at 140.
The original bill, amounting to $46,320, for
hydrant rentals, dating from the last quar
ter of 19C8 to November 1, 1910. was com
puted upon a charge of PM per hydrant.
The council committee compromised ' by
splitting the difference and making the
rate ST.0, reducing the bill to' the extent
of $6,922.71 The amendment to the rat

but which the company refused to accept,
practically fixes the hydrant rentals at

approximating nearly t.( In considera
tion of the free water service for all mu
nicipal purposes and for the hospitals and
charitable Institutions.
There may be an Interesting race today
between the members of the city council
responsible for the payment of the water
bills and the club committee to see who
shall triumph. It Is doubtful If the bills
can be paid without the receipt of Man
ager Hart, who happens to be In Boston
and Is not expected to return until next
Monday. It Is also said the compromise bill
mut be approved by the regular commit
tee of the council before the auditor can
legally Issue the warrant.

were at the club meeting and took , an
active part In the. discussions. It was also
Indicated a the purpose of the committee

speaker at the meeting held in th In

the main roads leading from one town to
another. This he maintained could be
done without additional coat if the work
was systematically planned. He especially
praised the work done at Guthrie Center,
In which he claimed there are the beat
roads in the state. Other speakers follow

pended by her arm, with her hand held
firmly tinder the heavy trap door leading
to th attic, where It was caught when the
door fell upon It and held It, and with the
flesh of the hand and part of the cheek
eaten away by rats, the body of Mrs. Jen
nie Huendllng, aged N. was found yester
day in her hermit home nine miles east of
Breda, Carroll county. The news did not
rech here until today. Mr. Huendllng was
the mother of Rev. Mr. Huendllng, editor
of the Breda Ostrinslsch Nachrichten.
The woman's body was found hanging
from under the trap door, which waa di
rectly over her bed. There sh dangled
by her arm until unconsciousness relieved
her suffering and death followed. Near
the bed was an old ladder which had been
used to reach the garret. From the appear
ances of the ladder and the body, It is
evident the old woman had tried to get into
the garret and the ladder had slipped and
her hand had been caught under the trap
door, which fell when she fell.
It Is believed that the accident happened
Saturday. John Christenson, a son by her
first marriage, was the last person who
saw her alive. On Saturday he visited his
mother, who lived alone, and carried in a
pall of water and did other work at her
home. The pall of water was found wher
he had left It. Mr. Heundling lived alone
for year, having repeatedly refused to go
and live with her ion.
