Col. Ira Wood, Superintendent Police:
SIR herewith call your attention to
an ordinance adopted by the City Coun-
Gil of Cincinnati relative to the right Of
way through the streets OF the city, VIZ. :
"An ordinance to designate the ve-
hicles having the right of way upon the
tracks OF any Street Passenger Railway
Company, and to prevent collision
thereon (passed February 49, 1860
"Be it ordained" etc, "Tbat the carts,
carriages or vehicles of any kind moving
in the same direction with the cars upon
any railroad track in the city shall have
the right of way in preference to vehi-
cles coming in the opposite direction:
| and it shall be the duty OF all vehicles
passing in the opposite direction to the
cars TO leave the tracks free for the
passage of the cars. and for any vehicle
| that may follow them upon any and all
railway tracks of the city,"
Owing to the steady increase OF vehic-
ular traffic over our thoroughfares, and
the many railroad tracks vehicles come
in contact with, suggest that you give
| instructions to the police to call the at.
tention of drivers of vehicles, &C., to
the above ordinance, and have the
same enforced, as near as possible, as II
would result greatly to the benefit OF
all concerned, and many collisions anu
Inconvenience would be obvlated
thereby. G. W. q. JOHNSTON,
Mayor.

Clever little actress, and her rendition

This dramatization was prepared with
great care and perfected at her own sug-

that the most casual reader or the
closest student can not but admire it.
The two characters played by Miss Put
