Put 2 oz. of Pinex in a pint bottle and fill it up with the Granulated Sugar Syrup. Take a teaspoonful every one, two or three hours. The taste la highly agreeable. The best results from this recipe are hal by using the real Pinex, which is Norway White Pine Extract in its most concentrated and useful form. It is immensely superior to any of the numerous pine oil or pine tar preparations. All druggists have it or can get very easily if requested. The best pyrup is made from Granulated Sugar.

The most, important social event ot" the Reason at Earl ham college, was th play given Monday evening by the Ionian and Phoenix literary societies of the institution. An immense audience witnessed the production and pronounced it one of the most suecessful productions ever given by the students of the college. It was a charming little Japanese play, entitled "Misu-Yu-Nisi." The curtain rose on the scene of an American girl's college room, the furnishings of which were perfect. Miss Florence Melleie. as Nitsu. was about to leave all of her American associations behind her to return again to her own fair land, betrothed, as the custom In Japan, to a man many years her senior. The next and succeeding scenes portrayed well the interior of a rich man's house in Tokyo. MitsuThe Markets Chicaao. CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS. (By Correll and Thompson. Brokers, Eaton. O.)

Yu-Nissi, who is the daughter of this rich man, Asano-Yu-NissI, rebels against the ancient customs of the

'country, which have remained sacred j to the people for bo many years, and 1 refuses to marry the old man, Kitura ' Jamamoto, who was a noble of high standing in Tokio, and who has a grown up son. This son Tasaku. who has been educated In Europe, falls in love with Mitsu and between them they contrive a plan to escape from the country together and to get married. But a conversation between Tasaku and the old priest causes the former's mind to change and Mitsu agrees in her own mind to remain in the country and to become the wife of the old nobleman. But the old man had noticed the gloomy spirit of his son, had guessed the reason and on the day set for the marriage, withdrew in favor of his Bon. Miss Metlete as Mitsu and Lawrence Barrett as Tasaku, deserve much praise for the way they carried themselves. Miss Dorothy Qulmby and Carl Weesner as the mother and father of Mitsu, acted just as the mother and father of a lively Japanese girl should act. Great credit for the success of the production is due to Mrs. James Morrison, who drilled the cast in the ways a Japanese should bow and kneel and who loaned a genuine Japanese tea service for the occasion. The cast was as follows: Asano-Yu-Nissi, a nobleman of Tokio Carl Weesner Mao-Na, his wife ....Dorothy Quimby Mitsu, their daughter Florence Mellett Mitsu, their daughter Florence Mellette Masatsura, her little brother Jack Grosvenor Kimura Jamamoto Hoy Conrad Taosaku, his son ....Laurence Barrett Tsuzaka Senkai, a Buddhist priest . .

EARLY SETTLEMENT OF POLE QUESTION IS HOWjXPECTED Indications Are That Public Service Companies' Will Get Together and Remove Poles From Main Street

IRON POLES WILL BE PLACED IN THEIR STEAD. President Merrill and Councilman Deuker Had a Tilt Over Contents of the Pole Ordinance Passed in February. Indications are that the city, the Eight, Heat & Power company and the street railway company will soon get together and, in compliance with the Main street pole ordinance which went into effect the first of this month, make arangements to place a line of iron poleB on Main street iu place of the unsightly wooden poles. President Merrill of the board of public works, made a statement to this effect at council meeting Monday evening. Councilman Deuker entered a protest against the erection of iron poles on Main street, as he said that the terms of the pole ordinance did not permit this. Mr. Merrill insisted that Mr. Deuker was mistaken. From his coat pocket Mr. l)eukcr produced what was supposed to be the pole ordinance passed by council February 11 and from it he read a section which stated that all poles must he removed from Main street and that the affected companies, including the city plant, must place Iron poles in streets and alleys running parallel with Main street. Mr. Deuker said that he was opposed to this ordinance and that on the strength of his opposition he submitted a minority report before its passage. The city clerk then read the pole ordinance which is on the city statute book. It provides that iron poles may be substituted for wooden poles. Mr. Deuker was greatly astonished and he said that he was positive tho ordinance adopted by council was not the one on the city statute book. ( The Home Telephone company notified the Light, Heat and Power company that the poles between First and Fourth streets on Main street, owned jointly by the two companies had been stripped of the Homo Telephone company wires and that tinder the terms of the contract between the two companies these poles were now the property of the Light, Heat and Power company. The Home company also notified the Light, Heat and Power company that the company had stripped its wires from poles on the north side of Main street from Fourth street to Sixteenth street, and had placed its wires underground in compliance with an ordinance passed last June. This line of poles is the property of tho Home company but the Light, Heat and Power company has been using them, consequently the Home company is ready to remove these poles and the L. H. &P company has been ordered to strip their wires from them. The line of poles from First street to Sixteenth street on iiain street owned jointly by the Home company and the city, have now been vacated by the former company and have reverted to the city.

CHARTERS HAS NO RIGHT TO CLAIM SHARE OF TAXES

Friendly Action Will Be Brought In Court to Settle Controversy Between City and Tax Collector. HAS COUNTY POWER TO BIND CITY IN CONTRACT? County Treasurer Still Holds Out That Amount of City's Omitted Taxes Claimed by Charters at Per Cent. Citl Attorney T. J. Study, is of the opinion that W. K. Charters, former city tax adjuster, has no legal right to claim any percentage of the city's share of omitted taxes, collected the past ear. Mr. Study has advised Charters to bring a friendly action in the circuit court, for i.ne purpose ot determining the controversy. The city's contract with Charters expired the first of last. September. Charters still has a contract with the county under the terms of which he is entitled to thirty per cent, on all omitted taxes collected. It. will be remembered, that two weeks ago City Con troller i'arry called council's attention to the fact that when County Treasurer B. B. Myrick, Jr. turned over to the city its share of omitted taxes, thirty per cent of the city's share had been retained by the coun- j ty treasurer to be paid over to Char-, ters. j From Charter's claim for thirty per j cent of the city'6 share of omitted taxes, has sprung the question can the county make a contract which would bind the city? Mr. Study thinks the county has not this power. Mr. Study cites the fact that Char ters bases his claim on the law which j provides that before the county treasurer shall distribute omitted tax moneys in the various funds, the tax adjuster shall receive his percentage. Mr. Study contends that the city's share of the omitted taxes cannot in any sense be called a fund. Charters will probably consent to have the question envolved settled in the circuit court. FIRST WMD WILL BE DRY III FUTURE The Old Town Pump, the Last In the City, Will Be Removed. IS AN OLD LANDMARK. NOTWITHSTANDING THIS, RESIDENTS CLAIM IT AN EYESORE AND THROUGH THEIR STATESMAN ASK ITS REMOVAL. The first ward will probably go dry. At council meeting Monday evening. Councilman Otto Williams stated that the old town pump, one of the few remaining land marks of old Richmond, located at the corner of rfuuth Fourth and C streets, was useless and an eyesore to the neighborhood. On behalf of the residents of South Fourth street Mr. Williams recommended that the pump be removed. It is probable that council will take this action. NO LOITERERS WILL BE TOLERATED j New Ordinance Passed by Council. CHARACTERS WILL BE HELD The loitering ordinance was passed on its third reading by council Monday evening. This ordinance was in- ! t reduced about a month ago. The po- , lice now have the authority to hold all ' suspicious characters found loitering about the city. FOUGHT DIG BATTLE OVER ft "PURP."
