THE CITY Council met ON Monday even
ing in regular session. An ordinance was
introduced and read the first and second
times, prohibiting under penalties the run
ming at large in the streets of Vancouver, of
pigs, hogs, shoats, swine, ducks geese, goats
and sheep. 1t is timely measure, as the
hog nuisance has become intolerable. Big
hogs and little hogs, fat swine and lean
swine, shark noses and gate lifters, infest
every street and alley destroying gardens
and getting into every place where they have
no business, while the geese finish the work
of ornamenting the walks and grass plots.
For the good of our pleasant city we hope to
see the ordinance passed and strictly en-
forced.
The Council refused permission to Mrs.
Turnbull to fence in a certain street or
streets temporarily, on the ground of fur
ther establishing very bad precedent and
further directed that the city attorney notify
her to open the closed streets. As there is
a clashing of the survey and city plot in re-
gard to the property adjoining these streets,
the matter will probably result in suit to
perfect surveys and plots by which the own
ers Of the property may get such additional
feet as the deeds call for.

tracted from the wound in the thigh, near
the groin, it having worked its way some
distance during the time he has been in hos

leg, which was broken by the shot, is about
two inches shorter than the other. The
ball, of an ounce weight, jagged and flat
tened. with small pieces of bone imbedded
in the lead, has been mounted for a watch
charm, by T. c. stephens, the Vancouver
jeweler, with silver bands, forming a very
neat cage around it. Mr. Stephens engraved
