Notice..

Nothing IS purchased which requires so much
iulgm. mt in the purchase as a good Watch. In many
in stances the gaudy outside is found TO contain a
worthless Interior and the deluded buyer does not
take long discover that he has been at great
pense for nothing. An honest matchmaker, who
guarantees what he sells and sells only what he can
guarantee to give satisfaction is always worth know
ing, and safely refer country and city
readers to p. S. ANDERSON. of 1913 Rampant street
as Just such man.
Strangers visiting the city will find it to their adj
vantage to call at the above store, where they can
find the finest selection OF Diamonds and Jewelry at

he had become Sufficiently intoxicated TO suit
their vile purposes he was taken TO the house Of

SHALL THE KINas COUNTY NURSERY DE ApoL-
IsHED?

Yesterday afternoon Commissioners Cunning
ham, Raber and Midas, Of the Kings County Com.
mission OF Charities, together with Superinten-
dent Hill and others, held q meeting to take into
consideration the feasibility OF transferring indi-
gent children committed to their care as county
wards from the public nursery to private ius.itu-
tions.
Supervisor Hill and Commissioner Cunningham
favored that disposition OF the children, It
would be most conducive to their moral, mental
ana physical culture and entail on the county less
expense lor tLeir maintenance; out Commission
eis RaDcr and Midas appeared to be unwilling to
abolish the nursery, which, they claimed, could be
rendered moro comfortable and better suited to
educate children by O liberal outlay.
Commissioner Cunningham argued that the sys-
TEN OF bringing up lndigent and homeless children
had been established In about thirty four cOun-
ties OF the state, aud vas worKing to the saisfac-
tion OF all parties It was his intention to dis
tribute the children among the private jnetifu-
tions according to their religious belief or that OF
their parcnts Several OF the private institutions
have already signifed their Willingness to accept
the charge at o reasonable expense to the public.
There was ample accommodation for them, and
the articles Of agreement could be so drawn as to
insure large saving TO the county every year,
and better moral and social training than was
now obtatnable az tne pubic nursery.
The committee decided to meet again next Tues.

UNPAID ASSESSMENTS.

Yesterdays SALE AT THE coUEr HOUSE OF
LOTS AND HOUSES FOR UNPAID ASSESSMENTS
ron CITY IMPROVEMENTS. 8f
The sale OF lands and tenements for unpaid as.
sessments for streets, avenues and PARK openings,
wiaenings and extensions was continued yester.
day at the Court House. The lots sold yesterday
were from No. 655 to 1883. The sale was then ad-
journed TO Thursday next. at twelve NJ. Mr.. A. S.
Cady, the CierE OF Arrears, presided. The sales
were for different periods, varying from 1000
years TO one year. In majority OF instances the
Corporation became the purchaser OF the lcise,
this being the case wherever there was not any
hid by outside parties The effect Of this ts TO en-.
able the owner to remove this incumbrance within
two years and half after the sale, by
paying the assessments and twelve per cent
interest. The same privilege Is obtalnabe
By the owner. when an outside purchaser be.
then pay fourteen per cent interest. The amount
OF assessment unpaid included IN the catalogue
about sI Soo. COO. THIS sum IS largely in excess Of
ordinary years, arising partly from the hardness
OF uptown improvements. some OF the uptown
lots which are arreared are by the assessment
consequence Of these charges largely exceeding
the present value OF these lots. The class
Of msny who are tsese a assess

those who cannot pay, those who are not
aware that their property Is in arrear and those
who win only pay when they are compelled to 40

to send out notices to the owners OF the property
II ne can find them Failing IN this ne sends the
notices to the tenants, who very frequently ne.

parties who are owners OF property advertised for
