It was said to-day that President

MAYOR AND GORGAS
VOTE 'AYE' AT LAST

provement work from the first, to find
the money.
So at last week's session of Council
they inspected Mr. Gorgas' annual re
port. easily found sufficient balances
to make up the deficit in the River
Wall fund caused by the unexpectedly
large award of the W. H. Opperman
arbitrators, and thus financed the
closing of the gap.
Whereupon the Mayor and Mr. Gor
gas to-day quit fussing and voted
"aye."
Opperman to Get Check
Council followed the passage of the
Lynch ordinance by adopting a reso
lution authorizing the payment of the
Opperman award. Mr. Lynch will
likely give the Oppermans their check
for $22,767.09 to-morrow.
The ordinance placing before the
people at the November election the
choice of voting for the floating of
another $300,000 improvement loan to
pay for the construction of a modern
concrete bridge over the Pennsy tracks
from Allison Hill to Walnut street
was passed finally.
Committees consisting of William
A. Mcllhenny, Dr. J. W. Storey, G. W.
Straw, James Auter, Richard Dare
and Edward F. Eisley, waited on
Council for the purpose. The com
mittee was represented by Attorney
Robert Rosenberg who made an elo
quent appeal for the passage the
measure and supported this with two
big petitions. One contained 1,367
names of voters from all over the city;
another bore the signature of 512
women.
Mayor Royal alone declined to vote
on the ordinance. He owns property
which will be directly benefited should
a bridge be constructed there, he said,
and after consulting with City Solici
tor D. S. Seitz, he said he believed it
best that he should not vote, even
though he was heartily in favor of a
bridge.
That the sinking fund commission
is preparing to float the remainder of
the $160,000 of the 1913 $300,000 loan
was indicated to-day when Mr. Gorgas
offered a resolution providing for the
absorbing of $60,000 of the water de
partment balance in that much of the
remaining loan. The other hundred
thousand will be floated in the near
future, the sinking fund commissioners
having decided this yesterdav. An ef
fort will be made .to dispose of the
SIOO,OOO to banks and Mr. Gorgas says
he does not fear that the four per
cent, interest can easily be obtained.
One year ago $140,000 of this sum was
floated and of this amount $127,575.72
has been expended as follows:
For sewers. $38,900.11; asphalt re
pair plant, $19,912.56; parks, $52.-
10^.37; fire apparatus, $11,210.34:
bridges, $4,770.34.
Ordinances passed finally included:
Constructing storm sewer in Fifth
from Schuylkill to Mahantongo streets'
opening and grading Seventeenth from
Herr to a point 220 feet north of Ver
ier. 6 ' °P enln * and grading Verbeke,

There is something about ripe, mellow "Bull" Durham Tobacco
that appeals to clean-cut manhood the world over.
Wherever in the world two "Bull" Durham smokers meet—in a
hotel lobby or club in Europe or America; at cross-trails in the
Klondike; in some far-off seaport on the Pacific—each recognizes
in the other a man to his own liking, a comrade in the world-wide
brotherhood of "the Makings." A sack of "Bull" Durham is a letter
of introduction that will win friends in every part of the globe.
