The ordinance prescribing that the carcasses of animals and putrid substances be reiiuired to be reported to the city scavenger and levying a line of $1 for vio lation ol the same, was passed. The ordinance providing lor the nso nnd occupancy of private property along the route of the storm wnter sewer, was considered in committee of the whole. A correction was made on motion of Mr. Jlach nnd was then passed. The resolution authorizing additional help in the city engineer's ofllce made necessary by the erection of the storm water sewer, was laid over.

A number of highway resolutions for repairs sent over from Select, were con curred in. The veto message ol the mayor was read and received, nnd the veto was sus tained by vote of 11 to 5. In Joint Convention. Councils met in joint convention to take action on the award of the contract by the Hoard of Public Works to Wilnon, Jackson ol Chicago, lor the con st met ion of the intercepting sewer in the northeastern section ol the city. Mr.

Alexander made a motion that the action of the board be approved, which was seconded. Mr. Hons then moved to amend by re lerring the bids to the committee on sewers and the addition of one member from each branch to the committee. This caused a lengthy talk and the calling in of counsel for rival bidders, and much valuable time was conminied. Select Councilman lloll said William J.

Rourke was in the room and represented home bidders. He moved that Mr. Kourke be given the privilege of the lloor, which was agreed to. Mr. Rourke said he appeared on behalf of borne contractors; that this is a contract of a kind that is not awarded more than once in a hundred years, and there is no reason why it should not be kept here; that the Chicago contractors know nothing about concrete sewers, and man from the Windy City came here to see the concrete sewer built by the Hawman Bros, on North Sixth street.

He said while the bid of the home contractors is more than that of the Chicago people the latter people cannot build it it for that, and asked City Engineer Chamberlain whether they could. That official answered that they could not unless they have new appliances. Mr. Rourke then said the bidders were a new lirm, had no experience and no capital, and gave a trust company incorporated under the laws of another state as surety. Hesaid the city had costly experience with trust com pany sureties and that if T.

M. Lesher had not come to the rescue in the (limit Cook affair the city would have been in a nice predicament, lie urged that the contract be awarded to people who are responsible and who are skilled in their line of trade. Charles H. Schaefl'er, attorney for Wil son, Jackson then took the floor and spoke in favor of the award. He had letters and telegrams read from the president, of the Chicago iVitioiial bank, the deputy commissioner of the Board of 1 "none Works, the Commercial Loan and Trust company, the Cnrrigan Brick com pany, the superintendent ol the AN estern Union Telegraph company, nnd other prominent business men of Chicago, and from the mayor of Muscatine, all testifying to the financial standing and experience ol the nrm.

Mr. Keppelman said "I do not want to line myselt against the home contrac tors, but how can we award a contract to any one but to the lowest responsible niuoerr" After some further discussion, Mr, Boas' amendment was adopted, and the convention adjourned. Court House Itrlefs. Susan E. Richards, of Shoemakersville, has employed I.

C. Becker and instituted a damage suit against H. L. Noeckcr, of Danherville. She alleges that she bad purchased furniture from Mr.

Noecker, upon which she had paid $117, and that he took it from her because of alleged non payments ol the installments. Be' fore it was taken back Mrs. Richards was accused of hiding a bedroom suit. Be cause of this she claims Mr. Noecker ac cused her of being dishonest.

She asks the court to award her $1,000 damages lor delnmntion ol character. E. B. Wiegand presented the petition ol Catharine bchnieck, against Henry Schmcck, trustee of Charles Schineck. It sets forth that the trustee was in arrears for interest due her in $:500.

The trustee was directed to make payment within twenty days. Caleb J. Bieber presented the amended petition in the road proceedings in Til den, to correct the description in the view. The court reappointed A. W.

Sitz man, Monroe Dreibelbis and Dr. Hain as viewers. "Pork Bait," of the Iiwitirer, has this to say of sunfisb: The mistake which most anglers make is in throwing or at tempting to throw the gallant little snn Jish over the head. There is absolutely no necessity for such haste, and if you would get the sport out Of the fish give him a chance lor his life. When yon feel him bite give a quick but short jerk, nnd a second's time will be suflicient to tell you whether you have hooked him or not.

If yon have not done so, let your lure sink back slowly and he will bite again, lor the snntish is no quitter, and a little thing like a torn lip does not discourage him in the least. When yon hook him reel in slowly, and if yon have a real light rod and hooka good sized fish you can hardly do otherwise. The sunlish rarely reaches a weight of more than half a pound, but when he does reach that weight he will certainly give you a run for your money. I'lay him gently, and you will find that it takes time to wear him out so he will turn over on his side nnd give up the battle. The two fishermen arrested last week at York, charged with catching several bass in a dip net, were discharged.

They had sold the fish, but no proof could be )i rod need showing that they caught them.

MOTHERS BE CAREFUL. Babies Reported Dying of Summer Bowel Trouble. Diarrhoea Never Occurs Lactated Food Is Used. When The Purget and Most Nourishing of All Infant Diets. These are the davs when mothers must be even more watchful of baby's food than ever it such a thing be possible.

More than a third of the deaths in lioston so far in Jnue have been iufan deaths, from absolutely preventable causes cholera infantum, indigestion or some lorm oi bowel trouble. Improper feeding is at the bottom of this startling infant mortality. At the approach of warm weather it is imperative that the diet of babies and young children should be made conform able to the new weather condition. Lac THRIVED OX LACTATED FOOD. tated lood never linrms the digestive or gans when they are weakened by high temperature, it is prepared with re gard to alisolnte purity and freedom from any possibility of contagion.

The two prime causes of all bowel disturbance babies contaminated food and food that is indigestible and innutritions these have no terrors to mothers who restrict baby's diet to lactated food. High temperature, with unsuitable feeding, brings cholera infantum, diar rhiea and convulsions. But with the use of proper food nnd there is nothing so thoroughly good ns lactated food these dangers are wholly avoided. It has been shown in every in vestigation that babies fed upon this splendid food live longer and thrive better than those brought up on other diet. The child's steady and rapid growih and a weekly gain iu weight become an assured the many mothers who have successfully brought up children on lactated food will tell you.

Above is a picture of the baby of Mrs. Evelyu Piagit, of Tassaic Bridge, N. who says: My baby, lrma Hope, was weaned when she was but six months old, and for three days following lived on condensed 'milk. But by fortune I met a lady on the ferry boat between Jersey City and New York who had a sweet little child, and I spoke to the mother, and asked what food she lived on. She remarked, lactated food.

1 said that I had utended to try another, but would try laetated food. I did so, and from that time to this the little one has thrived wonderfully. I firmly "believe that I would not have had her with me now had not used lactated food. I shall con tinue using it until she is years Lactated food saves babies' lives.
