The regular meeting of the city council began last evening at 9 oclock. It first business was to approve of the business done at former meetings. A communication from the mayor stated that he had appointed John U. Murphy to revise and codify the ordinances of the city at a cost not to exceed $300. The appointment was confirmed by the city council. The next imiiortant matter that came up was that of providing the Salvation Army with a lot ujion which to build a building for the purpose of housing the homeless. At the last previous was remeeting a communication ceived from Col. George French, comto manding this territory, offering erect a building for that purpose, provided the city would donate the lot. The law committee recommended that a lot 60x150 feet on City Hal square, on the east aide of Grant avenue, between, the fire station and city hall, be donated, provided the Salvation Army would build a building of rock and brick not lesa than two stories In height and to cost not less than 110,000. It being understood that the lot should revert to the city whenever It ceased to be used for Salvation Army purposes This proposition provoked much discussion. It was claimed that the land proposed to be donated was too valuable for that purpose and that It would cause property contiguous to It to depreciate In value. The point was also made that the city had declined to give any portion of the City Hall for the square to the government of a The building postofllce. report was laid over for one week. A communication from the mayor was read recommending that all litigation against the bondholders and water works, company be settled and all suits dismissed on payment to the city of $30,000 In cash or In lieu there-thlrt- y bonds of the present water company. The proposition was unanimously adopted. Sanitary Inspector Power reported that for the week ending November 16th there was one case of diphtheria and one case of small pox. Upon the recommendation of Chief Browning the following ten patrolmen were suggested for appointment: J. A. Herrick, Samuel Thomas, Zach Sleeth, Joseph Bott, William Felker, C. E. Layne, Fred M. Tout, F. J. Smythe, Thomas Rackhain and A. Mohlman. This proposition also created much discussion pro and con and Chief Browning was called upon and made an exAn amendment by planation.

The roll was then called on the proposition to appoint the ten named and was carried by six to three, Nye, Chambers and Hender-shvoting In the negative. Petitions for rebates on licenses given up and applications for two new licenses and others for electric lights were read and referred. An ordinance defining vagrancy was Introduced and passed the three readings snd adopted under a suspension of the rules and ordered published. It was 11:20 when the council adjourned.

While the crop of alfalfa has been short In the other states; it has also been short In Utah, where the severe weather of last winter killed such a large percentage of the roots that hundreds of acres of lucerne land were plowed up and new crops started. Even when new crops of alfalfa were seeded the effect was the same on the seed crop this year, as a new stand of hay Is not suitable for growing seed. In some localities the farmers cut one g crop of hay and allow the second to go to seed. Thus they secure not only the seed but two good crops of hay, as the straw threshed from the seed alfalfa makes excellent feed for horses and cattle. A commission man who has probably purchased more of the crop during the past two seasons than any other buyer In the market, states that this year e Utah has produced carloads of alfalfa seed and that last year the output was sixty. This state Is looked upon throughout the seed markets throughout the world as the alfalfa district, just as Kentucky Is celebrated as the Blue Grass state, and wherever the crops are short elsewhere, Utah Is looked upon as the only place to help out the situation. All these conditions make It evident that this Industry must continue to grow in importance from year to year. - one-ha- cut-In- fifty-fiv- Cross-Complai- of nt the Defendant Filed All Allegations Denied.

At a meeting of the city council last night the folowing communication was read from the mayor: 'I ain advised that the police authorities. as well as the sheriff of Weber county, have considerable trouble In running down criminals by reason of the fact that when the officers enter certain saloons by the front door, men that are supixired to be criminals disappear through the back door. I would, therefore, recommend that an ordinance be passed that all saloons In Ogden City shall lock and keep locked the rear doors after dark and that all entrance to the saloons shall lie by the front door after dark." Immediate action on the communication was asked, but it was referred to the police committee. It will be observed that this Is a matter that has been repeatedly urged by the Journal.

Well, I am Mr. Towle's business man, secretary, general utility man. He lives on the adjoining estate. Had I heard of Miss De Veaux's illness I should have suggested the propriety of his writing to express his concern. He would have directed me to wrrite a letter, and In. this case he would have copied It in his own hand and sent it to Miss De Veaux." "Bless me. Is this the way these rich people express sympathy? Pardon me sending you a note through my secretary, Mr. Towle, should have made an exception to my rule in your case, but since your note of condolence to me came from your business man I presumed you wouldn't care. Were you aware that he sent me the flowers, or did they come under general instructions for cases of illness?"
