The BOARD of Town Trustees failed to
pass the Cow Ordinance yesterday. This
was owing, we understand, to the alb
sence of Mr.. Gardner-Mr. Neder pre-

upon himself, and Mr.. Norris, who lives
at Empire and modestly chooses to let
the Carson members signify their pre-
ferences before he takes any decisive

The V. & T. CAR SHOP and Round

thought, be fully occupied before next
Spring. What the reason for this is, is
best known to the Superintendent and

it is thought hardly worth while to dis
turb matters at the old shops now that
the rainy season is SO near at hand.
Meantime the engine and heavier ma
chinery Of the Machine shop is being
put in place under the superintendent
of Mr. E. n. Staiey (who put up the

being now solely and entirely in the control
of the several states, 1t is difficult to see
how system of election by districts can
be procured through a constitutional
amendment The assent of ee.fourths
of the states would be necessary to make
any such amendment valid, or of binding
force, and the same states have now full
and ample power to so appoint electors.
If they will not now, with full and ample
power in the premises, so direct, how can
II be hoped that they will do 1t through a
constitutional amendment We are aware
that 1t may be said, that in the one case
three-fourths would bind the whole, while
in the other they could affect only them
selves but the answer to this is, that the
lesser number would follow the example of
the greater. 1t is but few years ago that
four systems were in vogue in different
states for the choice Of electors, namely
by the Legislature, by general ticket, by
districts, and choice of electors at large
by the legislature while the district cleo
tors" as they were called, were chosen by
the people of the several districts. A uni
formity was finally produced by separate
state action, without resort to a consttu.
itonal amendment. So in this case, we be.
lieve that il the people could be convinced OF
the necessity of the district system, tho
change could and would be brought arount
as surely and more speedily by separate
state action than by an amendment to tho
| constitution.

but the steamboat Jennie Howell, on which
she was travelling, a struck a snag and sunk
in the Ohio river. Several of the passen-

children. Mrs. King had child on board
whom she mourned as lost, and was taken
to Shawneetown without her babe. The
Jennie Howell sank deep in the water, and
the next morning men went to the vessel to
recover the bodies OF the lost. Soon after
daylight mattress was discovered floating
in the cabin, which was filed with water
nearly to the ceiling. Upon examination a
child, little boy, was discovered on the
mattress sleeping as peacefully as If moth
ing unusual had happened. His bed was
not very dry, for 1t had sunk a good deal
from soaking, but still sustained Its living
