EIGHTH STREET ARCH STREET WILL TRY WATER GAS. Councils to Consider a Proposition for Its Cheap Manufacture. The Councils' committee on municipal government yesterday adopted the report of a sub-committee recommending that proposals be invited for the erection of an experimental water gas plant at the Point Breeze works, the price at which it is to be furnished to the city holders to be open to competition, the contractors to furnish $50,000 bonds for carrying out the terms of their proposals. The ordinance was drawn in pursuance of a proposition from the National Steam Heat and Power Company, of which Colonel John I. Rogers is president, to erect a plant and furnish water gas to the city holders of an illuminating power of twenty-two candles at twenty-five cents per thousand cubic feet.

The process of manufacture is patented and the offer of the company is to be given a thirty-day test. There was a lengthy discusin the committee, but the ordinance was finally acted upon favorably. MARRIED. BAKER-SMITH. -On December 5, 1893, in Camden, N.

Mr. THOMAS MOUNT to Miss MAME MO GOWEN, both of Philadelphia. WHY PEOPLE WORRY Its Causes Clearly Explained and the Best Way of Avoiding it Revealed. The past summer and early fall have been periods of worry, of care and exhausted vitality caused by the strains incident to The speaker was a prominent man. Continuing, he said: "This has naturally caused men to.

become run-down, nerveless and really unable to properly attend to business. But this is not all. Man's worries become a woman's worries because of her superior Intuitive powers and sympathy with everything that concerns her husband, her brothers or her lover. All these things cause great exhaustion, and it is not surprising that physicians report a state of weakness which has not been known before for years. It is true that our financial troubles are largely over, but the system needs building up to the condition and tone of six months ago.
