Outside sentiment seems to be active in rela-
lion to the construction Of the new reservoir.
The reduced plan as determined upon by Coun-
Gil some weeks ago does not entirely satisfy that
portion OF the public who cannot BEE the wis ON
or economy in building the lower bank, or in ex-
csvating the bottom of the upper basin contrary
TO the recommendations Of the consulting engi-
neer. who thinks tho distributing ability OF the
basin will DO thereby impaired, and an earnest
protest against even this modified plan Was laid
before Council, last evening. Nothing short OF a
reduction to one-half the size of the originally
Contemplated basin, without reference to the
lower bank, will satisfy large majority of the
people OF this city, and it will not be surprising
II still another modification of the plan is mo-
mRdo.

The conviction is deepening that Charlie Rose
has been killed. Almost every known haunt OF
his abductors has been searched in vain, every
clue to his whereabouts has been followed to
nothingness, even the detectives who have in
spired us with hope Of the recovery OF the child
bsaing their expectations on the discovery of the
abductors, are beginning to despair, and AL
together the mystery is as impenetrable now as
it has been at any time since the child was sto-
len. The grief of the parents must be even
more poignant, for the transaction at Bay
Ridge has opened afresh the wounds Of their
hearts, and Tacked their minds midway be-
tween hope and fear these many days. Pub
lie sympathy will go ont to them more copious-
iy now than before.

1t is highly probable that after the LIST Of
April next, those unsightly sheds in Fourth
street will be torn down. A resolution was
adopted by Council, last evening, which de-
mAnds the vacation by the stall-renters after
that date, aud the sale and removal Of the struc-
lures. Immediately thereafter the macadAmizing
OF the street as far as Orange is ordered, And by
another season this avenue will become one OF
the most beautiful i'll the city. Council has very
promptly and wisely taken hold of the matter
now that the opportunity has presented itself.

A member of the Saginaw county
bar, says the Detroit Journal Of Com
mel ce, was recently in one thriving in
terror towns on professional business.
In the Office of the hotel he was accosted
by very agreeable gentleman, evident
ly of the genus drummer, who wanted
to know "where he was FROM" The le-
gal gentleman not exactly relishing the
strangers familiarity, answered shortly,
"From Detroit" The next question was
"For what house are you travling?n
"For my own" You arel May ask
your name ?' "You may" Pause-en-
joyable to the lawyer, embrasing to the
other "Well desperately, what is your
name?" Uones.' "What line are you
in?' II don't understand you, SIR
what are you selling?" Gmpatiently).

his opportunity, and looking at the 9TH

Sunstroke.

HOW TO PREVENT IT-AsIMPIE SPECIFIC.
AS we are passing throgh the heated
term the following specific against sun
stroke may save the illness and many
whose occupation obliges them to be in
the field or on the street:
"About year since saw in news
paper an account of case of sunstroke,
written by the party himself, after suf-
fering long time from the attack, and
having to considerable degree recover
cd, he experienced suffering even from
the rays of the moon. This led him to
the reflection that it was not altogether
the heat of the sun that produced pros
tration. After much research, he discov-
cred that the injury came from the chem.
ical ray, and not from the heat ray. He
was guided to this by observing the
fact that photograph could not be to-
ken through hollow glass. According
ly, he lined his hat with Innings one
of orange yellow to arrest the chemical
ray, and one of green to arrest the heat
ray. Thus prepared he went where the
rays of the sun were most intense with
perfect impunity 1t is well known the
the negro is seldom sunstruck. The col
or of his skin over the scull being of or
ange yellow, may assist in accounting
for the fact. practiced upon this
suggestion all last summer, lined my
hat with green and yellow paper, and
had confidence enough in the truth Of
the theory to neglect my umbrella,
which l had never done before. meu-
toned it to many, who tried it also, and
many cases that came under my obser-
vation they uniformly say that the op-
pressive heat of the sun upon the head
was much relieved"
