' ASSOCIATED CHARITIES APPROPRIATION RAISED City Will Allow $100 Per Month Dur ing Winter Formerly Ap- ' propriated $35. The matter of widening Montford avenue and Charlotte street so that the Ashevillo Electric company can put down additional switches on these streets came up before the board of al dermen again last night and H. W. Pliimmer usked the board, through Corporation Counsel J. Frazier Glenn, that a special agent be appointed to confer with the property owners on these streets about the matter. This same matter cat.;e up before the board several months ago and a jury was appointed to assess the property nec essary for the proposed widening. The report of this Jury was rejected. It is the expressed purpose of the com pany to put In these extra switches in order to make possible a more con venient schedule. The jury that was formerly appointed also assessed prop erty for the same purpose on Mer rimon avenue and this report was ac cepted at the time. The Electric com pany agreed nt first to bear all tne ex penses of the undertaking, whether the widening is done or not. J. T. ilostlc was last night appointed to confer with the property owners ac cording to the request. A committee vomposed of t. M. Weaver and J. A. Nichols appeared before the board on behalf of the Flower Mission of the city to ask tliat the help from the board be Increased from the present sum of $?." a month to $100. Mr. Weaver was the spokes man and he laid before the board the needs of the mission and gave them some idea of the work that is being done at present. He said that tne winter months are the hardest part of the year to make ends meet, as there are more calls lor Help men. ano al ter some discussion, the board passed a motion to give the mission the sum asked for. beginning with Novenioher and continuing until April 1. J. M. Clark, custodian of city hall. sent in a communication to the board to the effect that he considered that the present condition of the building rendered it unsafe and asked that it be examined. Mayor Rankin then stated Hun t!ie building was certainly in bad shape and something would have to be done within a very short time. He also suggested that when unv improvements are made. It Is likely that the militiamen of the city will make a proposition to the city for the construction of an up-to-date armory. This started a general dis cussion of the matter and Maj. Law rence Young presented to the bor d a tentative plan that Is in the mind i of the military companies. He said that a large armory could be constructed over the market house without any very great expense and that If any re pairs are made, the offices of the city department could be so arranged as to be more In touch with each other and an entrance would thus he afforded to the armory. As to the financial side of the prop osition .he said that he thought it could be arranged for the companies to fake out $700 or $800 a year from their appropriation to be devoted to a sinking fund to pay for the construc tion and could be considered In lieu of rent. I'.esides this, the city at present contributes $300 a year towards the rent on the present armory and this would he saved. The armory, he said would be of sufficient size to acconv module the two companies of the city unci the hand and hospital corps. which at present have different quar ters. It was decided to hire all archl tec t to look the situation over and re I" i t to the hoard what steps could be taken and what the costs to the city would he. A communication was read from the World News company, in which the manager in .Memphis asked for a per manent street location for one of their wagons in this city and stated that II the location could be insured a man woiild he sent here t once to open the stand. The letter v ent on to say that the stands of this company car ry newspapers from all over the worhl and c laimed to furnish anybody Aim tne latest editions of any paper that they may call for. It was set forth that such a stand would be of gnat value to the thousands of tour lats who come here each year and would be of benefit to the city. There was some discussion of the matter b the Is card and It was decided to reject the proposition, as these people do not pay house rent, and It wui con sldered unfair to let them come In here In competition with the local dealers. J. O. Merrlmon appeared before the board aa the representative of the Lee lash company of New York In re gurd to the drop curtain In the Audi torium. He atated that the curtain had been furnished by these people for certain advertising matter which la put on It. but that they are getting nothing out of It and would like to sell the curtain to the city for $50. The board decided that It waa the business of Mr. Schloss to look after these matters and the clerk waa In structed to write to him and Inform him that he could make proper ar rangementa with the curtain people or furnish his own curtain. The matter will be reported again next Friday night. City Engineer H. M. Lee reported to the board that he had inspected the sidewalk thut hue been recently laid on. North Main street by the Ucloto company and had found that a part of It waa all right. The rest he tald waa scaling a little on account of the use of an Inferior cement; that the contractor would make repairs on It next spring, aa soon aa the weather waa fa.vore.ble for the . work. , The board passed a motion that he be In structrd to Inspect all cement that has been recently laid. , A report of the street, committee, In Cu :C0l' i- I ALCOHOL 3 PER CENT. ting die StomadB andBowbof Promotes DiSestionGwrfil ness and Restontain5neWT Omum-Morphine narMueraL; NOT JN ARC OTIC.

Exact Copy of Wrapper. which a list was given of the proper erty owners on West College street who are to be settled with on a per- entage basis for the widening of that street, was adopted. This list did not include John o'Donuell, about whose account there has been some doubt. lie claims that he hus paid the as sessment, but there is no record oi the matter. The bill for the balance due K. 1. Frost for the repairs on the police court room was presented to the board and It was referred to the joint police und market house committees with power to act. This was done because there was a contract signed to have the place ready by a sped lied time and it was not done. There are several claims against the city for damages to market house booths on account of these repairs. The request of J. II. Schochet, through his attorney, Judge Thomas A. Jones, to be allowed to display his goods on a space of 18 Inches in front of his place on North Main street was denied, as it was the opinion of the board that such a move would furnish u bud precedent. Heports were read of the cost ot onstruction of paving und sewer line in Arlington street, paving College Park and building storm sewers. These were adopted and where there were assessments against property Wners, it was ordered that they be properly advertised. Several matters were also referred to the street and sewer committees. It was ordered that some repairs be made on Catawba street. A light was asked for the street near the depot c lose to Sum Kine- slciu's place of business, also one for Church street back of the American National Bunk building. Both re guests were referred to the light com mittee. The mutter of building a temporary sidewalk on Aston lane waa referred to the street committee. The new automobile ordinances, which passed their second reading at the last meeting of the board, were held up for llnal passage until next Friday night. It was dec ided to give all city em ployes a holiday on next Thursday with full pay. Kills to a large amount were ap proved and ordered paid, although Mayor ltankin announced that there was only $69.13 in the treasury at present. It was suggested that some measures of economy be prat-tl ed as expellees had to be cut somewhere and the city had to raise $15,000 by the first of the year to pay Interest on the bonded Indebtedness. 5 I j.v. $5SrAa f 1 mUU GROW BEAUTIFUL HAM If your hair is falling out, rough or scrubby, if it lackn the beautiful lustre, you should use TO-B AC-TON.
