Bad Boys.

Several bad boys have been in the
habit of shamefully abusing the child
rem at the Children's Home, Ninth and
Adams streets. These fisnds make a
habit when there are no police in sight
Of skulking around the corners and
along the fences, and when the child
rem get in clusters they will throw
stones up in the air gauged to drop
down in the centre of the group, some
times hitting and severely injuring
them. Sometimes they coax the child
rem out to the fence when they throw
dirt in their eyes, and shower handsful
of gravel amongst them.
Aside from all this the language
used is disgraceful, showing that If they
ever had any good parental training,
they sadly forgot it when they got out
of sight of the eyes Of their parents.-
These outlaws keep sharp lookout for
the appearance of the police, and when
they spy one coming they scamper
away across the lots SO fast that it is
impossible to catch them. Something
ought to be done to have these young
outlaws caught and to have them sub
ject to the severity Of the law. 1t is too
bad to think that these poor little chill
dren cannot go out to play without be-
ing subjected to such treatment.

Seven or eight times Wyman was

There were thirteen witnesses sum

show that Todd had picked up a roll
of notes, which were at the time sup

The defence regealed the fact that the
money picked up was three one dollar

ting arm, Ezra Lukens, John NcDsr-
mott, Alfred Carmichel and Peter
Miller, and They were empowered to
take steps to secure the apparatus.

of the Water Witch company, ~ soon
as this conclusion was arrived at Mr..

to this city from Hudson City, N. T.,

was perfected ana the engine Will ar'
rive in this city in October. The en-
gin. which is o. the third class will be
for service and will throw water q dis
,auce Of ab0ut 270 feet.
As there IL considerable rivalry be-
tween the various companies as to who
shall have the honor Of receiving the
new engine, the Weccscoe Company
will doubtless consider the matter
themselves, and let popular company
vote settle the matter. The new engine
will cost about $4,000. The Weccacoe
Company are at present working the
old Ellsrton engine, which they pur-
chased secondhand from MIR. Ellerton,
tho builder, at Waterford, Conn.
They paid $1,000 tor this engine and
have been working it with considerable
satisfaction since 1876. This old en-.
CINE will now be offered for sale and
the proceeds from its disposition will be
