L AS SECRETARY OF A STATE SOCIETY Former City Clerk No Longer Being Connected with the Municipal League, Bescher Named Successor. PROGRAM COMMITTEE TO MEET SATURDAY Streets and Alleys Committee Is in Favor of Having North D Street PavedReferred to the Board. To fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of C. W. Merrill, Baltz Descher was elected state secretary of the Indiana Municipal league at the meeting of the city council last night. The state convention meets in Richmond on June 22, 23 and 24. A letter was received yesterday from Mayor Dairow of Laporte, Ind., to the effect (hat Mr. Merrill had resigned. The constitution of the league provides that the council of the city in which the league holds its annual convention, shall elect the secretary so that he may keep in touch with affairs. The letter also stated that the state program committee, of which Mayor Harrow is chairman, would be in Richmond on Saturday, February 26, for the purpose of meeting with the local committees of the various organizations and drawing up a tentative program of local talent. With the view of drawing up a program which will be acted upon by the state committee Saturday, the local committees will meet tomorrow evening in the office of the board of works. It is the endeavor to make the convention held in this city in June one of the most successful ever held by the league. North D Street Matter. Councilman Englebert, of the streets and alleys committee recommended that the improvement of North D street, from Fort Wayne avenue west to the Doran bridge, be referred to the board of works with the recommendation that a bill for an ordinance be drawn up to have the street paved with brick. There has been considerable complaint over the condition of this street by the resident property owners and the improvement is badly needed, it is said. Councilman Birdsall presented a petition signed by John Jones and three others that a sewer be erected in the alleys between Royer and Crosshall streets and Sherman and Grant street to School street. The matter was referred to the board of works Councilman Weishaupt introduced an ordinance which was up for first reading, making it unlawful for any railroad company to keep or maintain a railroad switch abutting on a street or property, without a bumper to prevent the cars from running off. From and after the time of the passage of this ordinance it was provided that a line of $25 a day be imposed for any violation of the law. Endorse Improvement. A resolution, endorsing the improvement of National Road, west of West Fifth street to the Center township line, was adopted by a vote of 11 to 1, Councilman Bartel being ttfe only negative. The city is interested in only that part of the road which lies within the city boundary. Councilman Waidele of the Seventh ward, presented a communication inwhich he asked that some action be taken by the city in compelling transfer companies to cease discriminating against the west side residents, by charging 50 cents per passenger while only half this amount was charged for cab service on the east side of the river. Matters warmed up a little in the discussion of this matter, but the final outcome was that Waidele was appoint TRY JUST ONE BOTTLE OF COMMONS' TOHE HULK We might tell you that we produce and handle our milk, scientifically that we are sure it is pure, because we watch it from the time it Is produced until it is delivered but give it a trial and you will say you can ask for nothing better.

ed chairman of a committee to invent I gate and possibly draw up an ordinance to be presented at the next meeting. The ordinances, relative to stallions, will not be amended, as the special committee, appointed "two weeks ago. found the provisions of the ordinance satisfactory. A Nuisance Reported. Dirt has been piled at one end of a switch on the C, C. & L, near the North C street crossing, to be used as a bumper. The dirt and oil runs upon the sidewalk, making it very disa greeable for pede trians. The police department was notified to take action. The ordinances, providing for the city paying its share of the Fairview sewer assessment of 73.42, whicfl came up on third reading, was passed unanimously. Back to the committee on ordinance? went the ordinance providing for some distinctive garb for inspectors and oth er employes of corporations, who are in the habit of entering private homes. It came to the council's attention that a badge, to distinguish inspectors from imposters, was insufficient, because a badge might easily be duplicated. Manager Perkins of the Light Heat and Power company, suggested uniforms, and the ordinance will be so amended. It was suggested that the inspectors wear baseball uniforms with the initials of the corporation for which they are working, neatly woven on the shirt fronts. Light Plant Report.

He suggested that an inlet be constructed at this point. Three petitions for installation of arc lights were referred to the board. The petitions included: by John Bussen and forty-four others, arc light at Eighth and S. W. A. streets; by Miss Laura Morrow and eighteen others, for arc light at Fourteenth and South D street; report of committee on gas .and electricity, approving of location of arc light at alley, between Twenty-first and Twenty-second street, on North E street.

ft E Valentine Winters Is Refused a Decree by the Idaho Court. HAD NO LEGAL RESIDENCE Valentine Winters, one of the officials of the Dayton and Western Traction company and well known in this city by reason of several traction squabbles between the company and the city, has been denied a divorce in Idaho courts. A Boise, Idaho, dispatch this morning Is. as follows: "Consternation was thrown into the Idaho colony of divorce seekers today by the decision of Judge Fremont Wood in the case of Valentine Wint ers, a Dayton (O. ) traction magnate. who sought a divorce from Helen Clcgg Winters. Judge Wood denied the decree on the grounds that the plaintiff did not legally establish a residence in Idaho, but came for the purpose of invoking the aid of the courts in securing a divorce. Judge Wood not only denies the decree because of the nonresidence of the plaintiff, but finds that the preponderance of evidence is in favor of the defendant, who, the court says, "sofks only to protect her good name and that of her children." The decision says that the evident
