The attention of the taxpayers is called to the proceedings of Select Council, in which a member of the Water Committee, backed by his Democratic friends, had suppressed a resolution which if passed would have exposed the incompetents and laid bare the ignorance of the Water Committee.

A FAMILY FIGHT. XII INUABMOMIOCS DKMOCB1TIC COMMON COUNCIL Scenes at the Meeting on Saturday Night Objections to the Check Rolls Paying Too Much for Work An Official Who Works for the City and Private Parties at the Same Time Etc While the members of Councils were gathering on Saturday night it was noticeable that something unusual had happened, or was about to happen, by the whispered consultations among some of the Democrats and the cheery faces of the Republicans. Mr. Kahnweiler seemed agitated as if he had caught somebody raiding the city treasury, and Mr. Casey was in a thoughtful mood that boded no good for an opponent.

Chief Clerk Shiftier was busy arranging his papers and answering a dozen different questions at the same time, and President Cleckner occupied Ms chair, looking gloomy and severe. Common Branch. Council was called to order at 7:30 by President Cleckner and Clerk Shiftier called the roll, a quorum being present. The minutes of last meeting were read and adopted. The City Treasurer's reports for August and September were read, showing the receipts $12,115 02, expenses (11,094 66.

Mr. Pipher presented petition of residents of Sixth ward for a sewer on Fourth street. Referred to Water Committee. Mr. Cleckner presented an ordinance making further appropriation to Highway Committee for 1879.

Laid over for printing. The Highway Committee reported that J. J. Lynch had been awarded contract for Fulton street sewer. A letter was read from J.

J. Nalen stating that in his bid for Fulton street sewer he had omitted to furnish a bond; he was the lowest bidder and he hoped that Council would take into consideration his standing and reconsider its action. A motion was made to refer the matter back to committee. Mr. Swartz said the contract was awarded and referring it back was irregular.

The Highway Committee would have given it to Mr. Nalen but there was no bond. The committee had given it to Mr. Lynch and it was not business to take it from him now. The motion to refer back was withdrawn and the contract was awarded to Mr.

Lynch. Mr. Kanweiler. I think we have no right to give the contract until' we hear from Select Council. Are you listening to me, Mr.

President? The President. Yes, sir; the contract has been awarded and the matter is settled. The Fire Committee presented an ordinance regulating the ordinance of fire companies at fires, which was put upon its final passage. Mr. Clute wanted to know if the fire companies had been heard from.

He un stood they were opposed to it President Cleckner. It makes no difference. It is now on its final mssaee. The yeas and nays will be Mr. Clute.

I shall vote against it. The yeas and nays were as follows: Yeas Messrs. Bell, Cahoe, Hargest, Hummel, Kahnweiler, Myers, Oenslager, Phillips, Shearer, Skane and Cleckner, President 11. Nats Messrs. Casey, Clute, Frankem, Fisher, Ilocker, Jackson.

Krause, M'Cleas ter, Pipher, Thompson, Winters and Youns 12. The defeat of the ordinance was received with evident satisfaction by its opponents. A communication from Select Council in reference to action on certain resolutions passed by Common Council was read. The resolution authorizing City Treas urer to deduct unpaid taxes from bills presented by persons owing the same was passed. The resolution from Select Council relative to the appointment of three freehold 1 ers for the purpose of assessing damages (if any) to the wharf of Geo.

W. Harris, by reason of running the water mains throueh said wharf, was read. Mr. Swartz, The gentleman would not accept an award when made by previous viewers. The President.

That matter is now in court. He wants three viewers appointed now. It is perfectly fair. Mr. Oenslager moved to indefinitely postpone, which was not agreed to.

The resolution was then agreed to. A communication from the City Solicitor was read in reference to the damace done J. M. Sheck by the straightening of Paxton creek. He advised that unless an agreement can be reached as to the amount of damages between the city (if Councils determine the city should pay) and the land owner or his attorney in fact, the parties aggrieved can apply to the proper court for a view, and all the questions in dispute may then be raised and decided.

By Mr. Casey: That the supervisor of the second district be directed to dig a gutter on East street from Foster street ta North street, west side. Adopted. The ordinance repealing an ordinance regarding the sale of fire works. Laid over for printing.

By Mr. Fisher: That the city surveyor is hereby instructed to examine and report to council the best means by which Plum avenue, between Herr and Cumberland streets, may be drained the surface water now running through a private alley to the annoyance of property owners along said alley. A motion to reconsider the vote by which the opening of Wyeth avenue was defeated was passed, and the matter was again before Council. It was laid over for the present. Mr.

Kahnweiler. I would like to know what we have a supervisor for. I am notified to fix my pavements. They are all right. Some pavements are covered with sand why is this not fixed? It is a great nuisance when it rains.

The gutters are full of sand. When the rain comes it runs over the pavements. I would like to know if the supervisor is not compelled to clean the gutters. I want that decided. I would like know what we shall do with him.

The President. It is the Highway Committee's duty to attend to that. Suppose you put your motion in the shape of a resolution. Mr. Kahnweiler.

I'll do it An ordinance appropriating $200 for contingent expenses for 1879 was passed finally. Mr. Bell presented a bill from J. K. Roa rer for damages done an awning by the Good Will lire company while going to the iJcuiBi me.

iteierred to the Fire Commit tee. A report was read from Select rnnnn directing that the City Solicitor be instructed to prepare an ordinance directing the court to appoint viewers for opening of North siri et lroui xuui to izm. Mr. Etter. 'Who is this goinsc to benefit Mr.

Oenslager. "We have no mnnw EiJcnu umii way. Common Council refused to concur, and North street will not be opened in that direction. Nor the swamp lands drained. Select Council resolution instructing City, Solicitor to prepare ordinance regarding opening of Wyeth avenue was adopted.

A resolution permitting constructors of Government buildings to widen Walnut street pavement, was adopted. Mr. Swartz oflered an ordinance repealing ordinance of Sept 6, 1872, relating to detection of incendiaries. Mr. Swartz said the committees appointed on fires did not amount to anything.

He therefore offered the resolution. Referred to Fire committee. A number of bills for supplies for city, salaries, were read as sent from Select Council and approved by committee. When the bill for salaries for pipe line employees was read Mr. Kahnweiler wanted the items read.

On this being done, he said that he objected to the bill of Thomas Cleckner for services for September, $37. It had been handed in at $40, and afterwards cut down to $37. "He keeps his own time and I want in mmrin t. ri he worked all the time 20 days." President Cleckner. The bill is correct.

A majority of the committee have signed it. Mr. Shearer. Who keeps the time of the other men? Mr. Kahnweiler.

Mr. Howard, but Mr. Cleckner keeps his own time. He was sharp enough to do that. President Cleckner.

The work was all done, $37 for the water pipes and $3 at the water house. Mr. Kahnweiler. The water house bill says $4 that is $1 interest. Mr.

Swartz. Let the bill be withdrawn and Cleckner qualify to it That will settle it President Cleckner. That is very unusual. Mr. Kahnweiler knows nothing" about it.

Mr. Kahnweiler. I know that your son gets 2 00 a day and all other bricklayers get $1 75. President Cleckner. Mr.

Kahnweiler, you come to order. You spoke five minutes on the subject Mr. Kahnweiler. You can't stop me. I am a tax payer.

President Cleckner. Sit down You have called for the yeas and nays on the payment of the bill and it is not debatable. The yeas and nays were called and were yeaa 18; nays 6, and the bill will be paid. Mr. Swartz called for the items in a bill for repairs at the water house, and objected to paying for reflectors at $4 50 a piece.

They were of no use whatever. President Cleckner. They were put there by the Water Committee and must be paid for. Mr. Swartz.

Mr. Osier, on the committee, said they were of no use at all, The bill was ordered to be paid. Mr. Casey said he did not sign the Second District Supervisor's check roll because Mr. Dickman had done private work on September 4tb, and also charged a full day to the city.

I don't consider it is right for him to do work for others when the city pays him. He has laid a crossing in the First district, when he had no right. I consider that it is not right and should be exposed here. He should work for the city when he is paid for it. Mr.

Myers. There was a crossing laid at Fourth and Strawberry avenue, by private parties. The city has not paid one penny for it Mr. Pipher. The time for putting down that crossing is to go into the check roll for October.

Mr. Dickman told me that. The check roll was ordered to bo paid. At this point Clerk Shifflcr read the following preamble and resolution. WHBRXA9, The management of the Water partment of this city under the direction or the present committee has been highly demoralizing and destructive to the property of the city, and if allowed to continue may cause a sudden destruction of the machinery used in supplying the city wlih water, and tho Inhabitants thereby deprived of water therefore, be it Resolved, by Select and Common Council, That tho present Water Committee bo discharged, nd tht the Presidents of Select and Common Councils respectively, are authorized to appoint a new committee consisting bt tho same numb er in each branch as the former committee was composed of, but no member of Council shall be appointed on tho committee who was a li.ember of the present committee.

Several members. Who oHercd that resolution? Clerk Shiftier. I do not know. It was kiid on my desk. Several members.

Kun kel, the great tape worm destroyer. Tape Worm removed in two to three hours, head and tail, all complete and alive, with pleasant vegetable medicine. No fee until cured. Fifty per cent of cases of dyspep sia and disorganizations of liver are caused by stomach and other worms existing in the alimentary canal. Numbers of prominent citizens of Philadelphia, who have been treated for various diseases dyspepsia, consumption, bronchitis, female weakness, etc.

can certify that my treatment has cured them and that they had been treated for wrong diseases. Their symptoms and treatment: In this age of inventions it is very remarkable, but none the less true, that the symptoms of worms, a disease of the most dangerous character, are so little understood by the medical men of the present day. There are numerous kinds but the most dangerous and by far the most difficult to remove is the tape worm. This worm is constructed of flat pieces, which are connected to the head by a very fine neck. The parasite.is sometimes thirty feet long, but is so thin that the worm could be held in a small bottle.

The symptoms of this, as of other worms, are weakness and irritation. To effect a perfect cure the head of the worm must be removed. This is very difficult to accomplish and several eminent physicians have only been able to remove parts of the body. Those who are troubled with this loathsome disease can be cured in the short space of three hours. (For Tape Worm write and consult the doctor.

For all others, buy E. F. KunkePs Worm Syrup. It never fails to remove them. Price, $1 00 per bottle, or six bottles for $5 00.
