I? . P. Finn, R. F. Haynsworth, H. C. Haynsworth, E. H. Rhame, R. EL Wilder and R. L. Wright. Minutes of March 13th, 19th and 21st were read and confirmed. Mr. E. S. Miller, of the Fire De? partment, appeared to ask if the or? der of council will continue in force since the death of Chief W. S. Gra "ham, whereby the Captains of the ?two hose companies were to serve as Chief and Assistant Chief altemately in terms of three months. He was in? formed that the arrangement made "by council on April 10th, 1901, will continue of force. Mr. Chandler, of the committee of public works, reported that all mat? ters referred to them had received due attention and that the city la "borers are iiow at work clearing out the ditches. Mr. R. F. Haynsworth, for the po? lice committee, reported that permis? sion had been granted to Wm. V. Moore to erect a veranda across East Hampton Avenue on condition that it ?hall be so constructed as to allow no -watf?r to drip from it upon the Side? walk. Provided, also, that the veran? da shall extend to the outer edge *t the sidewalk; and that the sidewalk beneath the veranda shall be paved with concrete. The committee recom? mended that the erection of electric signs be permitted, to extend such his tance as shall be allowed by the com? mittee of public works; provided, that all such signs be substantially at? tached to building and shall be above awning frames. This recommenda? tion was adopted. The committee presented a bill from Mrs. M. E. Brown for $150 accompanied by a let? ter in which it was stated that the bill was for actual loss she had suf? fered in consequence of a case of smallpox quarantined in her boarding house for three weeks. Council or? dered payment of $50 in addition to $100 already paid, in full settlement of claim. Mr. Wilder, for the fire department committee, reported the hook and ladder truck in need of repairs, and same was authorized to be done. Mr. Finn objected to repairing the tru< an3 proposed that council shou purchase a modern hook and ladd equipment. Council thought It ine: ped-ent to purchase such expensr apparatus at this time, when all avai able f jnds will te needed for tl sewerage system. The clerk was d rectod to ascertain prices on hook ar ladder trucks. Mr. Finn reported that he had o: dcrcd furniture for the council chan ber, to cost about Si 00. The pu: chase was approved. Mr. H. C. Haynsworth suggeste that council should take official nc tice of the death of Mr. W. S. Gr? ham, chief of the fire departmen who lost his life while heroically dh charging the duties of his office, fe the public welfare. The suggestio was unanimously approved and Al dermen H. C. Haynsworth, E. Jr. Rhame and the clerk were appointe to draft appropriate resolutions of re spect. ' Mr. Chandler reported that com plaint is made of a low place, o land belonging to the Atlantic Coas Line Railroad Company, south o Liberty street, where water accumu lates and becomes stagnant. The com mittee of public works was requester to call the company's attention t this complaint and ask that the nui sance be abated, j A letter was read from Health Of j fleer Reardon again calling attentioi j to the low and muddy condition bf i J lot owned by Mrs. J. S. Richardson and asking that something be don< to improv : the same. Aldermai Chandler stated that pipe has beei ordered to drain this lot as heretofor< directed by council, and no further I action was taken. i A second letter from Health officei j Reardon stated that he had made ar j investigation of Saratoga branch al I the request of citizens, and that he I finds this branch is for the most part I covered with water with no facilities j for drainage, hence a nuisance and a menace to health. The mayor re? minded council that an agreement had already been made whereby Sar? atoga branch was to be drained, one third of the expense to be paid by the city, one-third by the county, and one-third by property owners; that the city has already spent about $60 j on its pan, and that the county and the property owners should be asked to perform their agreements. Mr. H. C. Haynsworth moved that the clerk be directed to write to the board of county commissioners, reminding them that no reply has been received by council to the requests of the city in reference to the drainage of Sara? toga branch and Turkey creek, and it was so ordered. A resolution was adopted asking County Supervisor W. H. Seale to have the county chaingang do 60 d?ys' labor due the. city, as shall be indicated- by the committee of public works. The committee of public works was authorized to employ a surveyor as may be found necessary from time to time. At request of Superintendent of Streets L. E. White, council ordered that a reward of $5 be offered for in? formation* leading to the conviction of any person who snail throw tacks, broken glass, crockery, &c, on side? walks or streets of the city. On motion of Mr. R. K. Wilder the clerk was directed not to require pay? ment of license by paper hangers. An opinion was presented from E. C. Haynsworth, Esq., in reference to contract made by a committee of council in 1903 with Mr. J. L. Ludlow, ! whereby Mr. Ludlow claims to have ! been employed as constructing engi i neer of the sewerage system. The opinion Was to the effect that under the facts and the law as he under? stood them Mr. Ludlow's contract is void, and not binding upon the city. The opinion was received as informa? tion, and Mr. Haynsworth was re? quested to give further advice upon this matter, including the contract .made by the Comissioners of Public Works with Mr. C. C. Wilson. On motion of Mr. R. F. Haynsworth a meeting of council was appointed to be held next Wednesday evening, April 3d, to consider the election of a sewerage commission. Claim of Charles D. Rees for $5.25 was referred to the finance commit? tee. 1 . Council then adjourned. Cured of Rheumatism. *Mr. Wm. Henry, of Chattanooga, Tenn., had rheumatism in his left arm. "The stregth seemed to have gone out of the muscles so that it was useless for work," he says. "I ap? plied Chamberlain's Pain Balm and wrapped the arm in flannel at night, and to my relief I found that the pain : gradually left me and thc strength re? turned. In three weeks the rheu ! matism had disappeared and has not since returned." If troubled with rheumatism try a few applications of Pain Balm.

Mr. Whitefora Thompson Will Jour? ney to Canada by Private Convey? ance. Manning; March j 26.-Mr. White ford Thompson left this place promptly at 10 o'clock yesterday for Canada. He is a native of this coun? ty, or rather he was born and lived ia this section until he became grown and decided to go west, where he liv? ed for many years and has just re? cently returned io ?South Carolina on a visit and while here he decided to eqip himself for a trip to Canada. He has busied himself for the past sev? eral months preparing for the jour? ney. He made a special wagon, cov? ered it with canvas cloth on the style of the old-time tobacco wagons from the mountains of North Carolina and Tennessee and loaded up with every? thing that a person could possibly use on such a trip. It was a sad depart? ure, indeed seeing a friend leave alone i to take such a trip by privat^ con? veyance knowing the trials and' tribu? lations one would necessarily have to undergo on such a journey. Mr. Thompson stated to your corespond? ent that it had always been his de? sire to live in Canada and that a few months ago he decided to make the trip and was confident of a safe arriv? al if he was not held up by some ras? cal as he once was in Texas, and he related that experience in this man? ner: "A fellow held me up in south? ern Texas once ::nd had his gun in my face before I could think and de? manded my money. I had the fore? thought and said to him that I had only $7 and would give him $5, as I didn't think he should take the last cent I had. He said: 'Very well, if you don't squal on me.' I passed him over the five spot and went on my way." Mr. Thompson will go into the cattle business or that is his pres? ent intention, but being an old man he might change his plans. The young mar. spoke bitterly: "Do you take me for a fool?" "Oh, George." she said. "This is so sudden." -Memphis Journal Doing Business Again. *"When my friends thought T was about t<> take leave <>f this world. <>n account of indigestion, nervousness and general debility," writes A.

Charleston, March 26.-Twelve ca? dets of the South Carolina Military academy left that institution tonight ! and will not return. On account of J reports of "breaking garrison" or i ders were read at retreat making se? rious charges against three of the cadets. It was said that the suspic? ions of he commandant being arous? ed, an investigation was held and contradictory statements were made. ?The three boys 'under charges left j the academy and later nine others \ also went out through a side entrance. ! When they came back they were in J formed that one hour would be given I them for securing their baggage. The I cadets are from Greenville, Columbia, I Charlotte and St. Matthews. No in ! formation would be given out by j the superintendent or the command ! ant further than the fact that a I number had "broken garrison" in a j manner to preclude all possibility of i their returning. The cadets belong to ; the best families of the State and I their action has created considerable I comment.
