tlorae suid timt the streets ouglil to
he fixed up and he thought the mat
ter of new fire Hppaiulus could lie
takeu cure of us well.
Mr. Moe suid that in his opinion
what the city needed most ul present
was to have its streets repaired in
some way permanently. Hint' while
there were no doubt a good many
things the city needed such as fire
Hppuratus'aiiil inoie light, he thought
the most imperative need wuh to have
the streets at ieust repaired before the
bad weather set 111 so that tliey would
at least be passable, He did pot think
$l,.riK) was enough money with which
to do it and do it right, which was
the main thing, as the town was get
ting to where Ihe strectt must, be per
niHiiently improved.
Councilman ntitt sanl lie was very
much lu Invor of having t lie si reels
attended to. That they were gradual
ly netting worse and worse and that
the time had come for tee city to
make permanent improvements upon
its thoioiightavirs em! that whalevei
wo''k was done should be executed
with that idea in mind.
Mr. lllaiicher was also very decid-I
ed in his opinion on this point ami
called the attention of the mayor ami
council to the many hud places in the
city's streets that if they were not re-
nali'ed would Ijd III such a 1 million iiy
spring that they would be impassable
Mr. Morse also said Unit II possible
the streetssliiiuhl be prepaired at unci
as another rain would ticiko the roads!
leading to the boat landing ami the
0. K. A N freight house in such bail
condition that they could be reached
with ditllculty.
Marshal (iatiuor, who wuh present,
addressed the council and said that it
was impossible to get men to work on
the streets at present, as there was
such a demand lor labor that there
were no men idle. He said ho did not
think it advisable to attempt to make
any permanent street improvements
this lull, lout li the streets were
plowed up they would become mud
holes and remain that way all winter.
l'o make a permanent, improvement
with Krpvcl or crushed rock would
cost, he thought, Jtnch more than coun
cil had to spend at this time.
I ; 1 1 v Engineer Henderson called
council's attention to t he diingerotis
condition of the roud lending to tin-
bout landing at the cn-d, side of the
the river where the new railroad
bridge is being const 1 ueled ami sacl
that it should be seen to tleif the !

Where Is i'r.ink Savage.
For some weeks past, in fact for a
month, his tiiends have been interest
ed as to the wliei'onboiits of Frank
Savage, who was given a vacation
from his duties at the W. W. M. Co. V
mill about six weeks ago, and with
the exception of one instance, has not
been heard Irotn since. He lelt with
the intention of going to Collins to
remain a week at least, lint, it is un
derstood, was there but u day. Wbere
he went iiiiui there is not known, but
he was afterward seen by a Dal es lady

disappearance.
Savage had been accustomed to
write to his grandmother, who lives
in the valley, every week and over a
week ago she wiote to the warehouse
company lo impure about him, which
proves that he was not wi'll his peo

i he question is, whht could have
become of him? lining a young man
of excellent character, with no bad
habits, I'lid having nothing to cause
him to disappaer without acquainting
his friends, makes the case more mys
ti iioiis, though to a few of his friends
I o dropped a word or two which led
1 hem to Hunk he had some intention
of reiiinining away, but why, is the
question. Some have suggested that
110 has been shanghaied, but that the
ory does mil serin to be adhered to.
When he left he is known to have
n:td fJ in ills pocket, lie has a bank

on salary. II he had any intention of
not comingd. ack, l,e nut In no urr nge

Aside I rum the mystery connected
with his ilisiqipainnce, anxiety is felt
