I'mliM-lint: Cottolunc.
The N. K. Fairbanks Company, of Chicago, have lately brought suit in the United States Court against \V. L. Henry, of this city, for S5.oou.uo for infringemcnt of their trade mark "Cottoiene.'' The X. IC. Fairbanks Company sets forth that they originated, prepared, and put npan the market a new food product consisting of refined Cotton Seed Oil and a small proportion of Beef Suet, making a pale yellow material of the consistency and substance jf lard, almost without odor and intended to take the place of lard in cooking.
In order to indicate the source and genuineness of their new food product, coined, and use as a trade mark the word "Cottolene." The healthfulness md many other advantages of Cottolene over lard were so apparent that Cottolene became at once very popular mid is now largely sold all over the country.
The new food product and its name Cottolene" have become widely known as the product of the N. K. Fairbanks Company. The trade mark is described as a "trade mark for Oleaginous Food Substances, &c.," "consisting of a head or neck of a Steer or other bovine partially enclosed by sprigs and brandies of the Cotton plant."
The N. lv.FairbauksCompany charges that W. L. llenry, of Macon, (la., a dealer in fresh meats and food products generally, has been and is en deavoring to unlawfully to avail himself of the benelitsof the name "Cottolene" and its popularity: that he has been and is selling a productsimilar in kind, but inferior in quality, under the name of "Cottolene" to the injury of the original and genuine "Cottolene and to the loss and injury of its manufacturers, The N. K. Fairbanks Company. 'The infringements upon the trade mark of "Cottolene"' have become so frequent, and so many dealers are selling an inferior article and claiming it so be Cottolene that The N. K. Fairbanks Company are determined to protect their customers and propose to sue every retail dealer who is thus imposing upon his customers and infringing upon the X. K. Fairbanks Company's trade mark.—TvUyruiih, Mitutm,

Chicago Hoard of Health Says tlio Authorities Aro Lax.
Indianapolis Neivn: Members of the State Board of Health have returned from Chicago, where they have been investigating the conditions of the smallpox. Secretary Metcalf says in some portion of the city the only precaution taken to prevent a spread of the disease is to post cards on the houses. There is no quarantine, and people are free to come and go. 111 the "sweating districts'' quantities of clothing are turned out that have been exposed to smallpox. Tlie.y are to be shipped to other cities. Dr. Metcalf says it is not difficult to understand why the increase of the epidemic has been so large. 1 While in Chicago the Indiana members met with those of other State boards of health. lieforce enforcing a State line inspection against Chicago the city authorities are to have another opportunity to confine the disease. Dr. Metcalf says it is dangerous for people to go to Chicago at the present time.
You Can Mall at the Car.
WASHINGTON. D. C., May 8, 1S9-1. The attention of all persons connected with this service is called to Section OsST, Postal Laws and Regulations, ls93, which makes it obligatory upon postal clerks to accept all matter offered them at the cars upon which postage has been properly prepaid, and forward same to destination. A large number of inquiries received at this office recently, from nearly every section of the country, indicates a general misunderstanding in regard to this subject, due probably to the fact that a number of newspapers have published articles indicating that the above section of the Postal Laws and Regulations have been repealed. This is in correct. The section above named is still in force, and a postal clerk ren dors himself liable to dismissal if he refuses to accept matters noffered him at the car, unless he has special authority to do so. Recent instructions to clerks to report all well defined cases of "boycotting that might come under their observation did not give clerks any discretion with regard to accepting or refusing matter offered them at their cars, but simply instructed them to report such cases to their Division Superintendent in order that they might be referred to the Department for such action as might be declared advisable.

The New Council MetSLast Night Got Down to Business
and
BOARDS AND COMMITTEES APPOINTED
A llran New Police Foree Appointed—A Change In Street Commissioner— Other Minor Change*—Salaries of Everybody Fixel.
The first business meeting of the new council occurred last night and lasted nearly until this morning. That is the council adjourned shortly before midnight. There was a full attendance of councilmen, 'Officers, reporters, and citizens, there being much interest taken in who were to get the various jobs. The council had several caucuses during the past week but it seems tliey were still unable to decide who the employes of the city should be so they caucused again last night until nearly 8 o'clock. At its conclusion they filed in with solemn faces. After roll call and the usual preliminaries the Mayor announced the boards and committees as follows:
Hoard of Public Improvements— Myers, Vanarsdall, Reynolds. Board of Health—Wilhite, Robinson, McCampbell.
Police Board—Robinson, McCampbell, Myers. Fire Board—McCampbell, Vanarsdall, Wilhite.
Judiciary—Reynolds, Myers, Robinson. Petitions and Overtures—Myers, Vanarsdall, Reynolds.
Finance—Reynolds, Vanarsdall, Wilhite. Ordinances—Vanarsdall, Reynolds, Myers.
Printing and Stationery—Robinson, McCampbell, Myers. Schools and Public Buildings—Wilhite, Robinson, Reynolds.
Electric Light—Vanarsdall, Wilhite, McCampbell. Water Works—McCampbell, Myers, Robinson.
Accounts— Reynolds, Vanarsdall, Myers. All of the above were appointed by the Mayor except the Board of Public Improvements which was selected by the council.
A resolution was then introduced and passed unanimously declaring all the offices and positions in the police, fire and electric light departments vacant on and after June 1, and instructing the clerk to notify the various employes that their services would no longer be needed after that date. It was a clean sweep and created consternation until Mr. Reynolds announced that this was merely done in order that the council might be free to act in selecting employes for the ensuing two years without risk of legal trouble. It proved that most of the employes were hired over again. Mr. Reynolds then spoke in defense of the caucus method of selecting employes. He said there was scheming or set-up jobs. They simply went into caucus that all matters could be talked over freely and men bo selected without hurting the feelings of those who were not successful. There had been differences of opinion but they were all honest and he thought in all cases the best thing had probably been done. Mr. Vanarsdall said that every man who would be selected had received a majority in the caucus. The Council then proceeded to elect officers lifter some discussion as to the length of their term of office. The law provides that the Attorney. Engineer and
Street Commissioner shall be elected for two years. As to the other employes Mr. Vanarsdall favored a oneyear term and Mr. Robinson favored au indefinite term, so that a man who failed to do his duty could be relieved at any time. Mr. McCampbell favored a two year term because he did not want to be electioneered any oftener than that. The present ordeal was enough to last him for a good long time and he thought if a man did not do his duty the Council should have nerve enough to prefer charges against him and discharge him. The following are the oflicers and employes chosen:
City Attorney—W. T. Wliittington. City Engineer—J. M. Waugh. Street Commissioner—Robert Larsh, to succeed II. II. McDaniel.
Chief of Fire Deiiartment—O. C. Dorsey. Assistant Chief—Ernest Dorsey
Driver—Doc Urifiin. Inside minute men—John Bell, Frank Nicholson, and Frank Smith to succeed Jim McGillard.
Outside minute men—William Vance, William Hayes, Flute MclJilliard, Lew Elliott to succeed George Hummell, Robert Gwinn to succeed Dan Pickett and Clarence Newell to succeed Henry Schenclc. .Superintendent of Electric Light— Fred Brown.
Engineer—John Conrad. Assistant Engineer—Ed Ames. Fireman—Frank Prewctt. Wiper—Will Birch, to succeed Ed Holloway.
Trimmer—Tom Riley. Lineman—W. Iv. Somcrvillc. Assistant Lineman—Ivy Carr. Policemen—James P. Grimes, Frank Wade, E. Bannister, Ed Martin, II. I Brown.
Charley Hirst declined to accept a position on the force and 11. G. Brown was put in his place. The police will be uniformed soon. A new office created was that of assistant lineman to be filled by Ivy Carr.
After the names had been read off huge sighs of relief could be heard in all parts of the house.
