WELISBURG, W. Va, July 27.-The
town Council held q special session last
evening the principal business Of the
meeting being for the purpose of determ-
lining upon the selection of a Superintend-
ent for the Water Works. 1t had been
generally understood about town, that the
Board of Commissioners had the power to
appoint the Superintendent, but Mr.. Nc
Naliy raised an issue, claiming that they
had only the power to nominate and COun-
ell only could appoint. At the former
meeting a majority of the Board reported
that it had selected Mr.. Reed rs Superin-
dent, and Mr.. McNally made a minority
aniel Nelson. At that meeting there was
not a full attendance of Council and upon
the adoption of the report of the majority
n the board the vote was a tie and the
whole matter was laid over until last
night. When the subject came up an or
dinance was drawn up and passed amend
ING section 10 of the rules governing the
water works was amended so rs TO author
ize the Council to elect the Superintend-
ent. After the adoption OF this amend
ment the Council proceeded to al election,
which resulted in Nathaniel Nelson being
chosen Superintendent at two dollars pei
day.
The debating and discuSsiODs of theeyen-
ing were warm and animated but withal il
good humOr. Mr.. NJ. Duval said after the
election that he did not desire to remain OF
n Board that could not exercise q reason
able liberality of action and gave notice OF
his intended withdrawal as a member o.
the Board. Mr.. Henry Gasmire gave a like
notice.

EXCURSION In which f&ndsmonium And
uo,vl,,~ Rome AreNowhere.


An Excursion In which P6ndemoniuin and
Howling Rome AreEowhere.
The New York newsboy's lot is not a
happy one at best. From rough usage at
the hands Of his parents, when he IS bur
dened with any, to the rougher treatment
of his W set IN the streets he acquires 2
yarlike spirit which fears only the cop
and the police Justice. Might IS right with
him and he is docile only when dealing
with n customer or in she presence OF a
stronger antagonist. There is one day IN
the wear though when all restraint IS re-
moved a d he, or several hundred of them,
are allowed to let themselves loose.
This red letter day in the newsboy's life
ia on the occasion of the excursion granted
him each year by John III. Starin. Itcame
off the other day, and the programme
varied Titled from previous years First
the largest double-deck bafgein the harDor
of New York is made ready at a dock early
in the morning, but no earlier thar the
boys.beginfaO swarm toward it. Each
pamin has secured a free ticket days be-
fore the event, on his proving that he was
an Atwood newsboy and at least a yard In
length. A squad of police are on hand to
preyent bloodshed, and keep the boys from
Going in swimming off the dock. There
are from 500 to 500 of them, and
the pandemonium they keep up
could not be described. After an hour or
so of waiting the order is given to go on
hoard. and then q scramble commences TO
Get them in line so as tOget them on board
Indian file. Those not possessing tickets
are weeded out, leaving $50 to go on board.
In the meantime a band of nine brave mu-
sicians have taken their lives in their hands
and entrusted themselves to the mercy Of
the bows later on. But they are q green
, aand, thew have never furnished music to
n newsboys' excursion before, and it is
| likely that Starin has not money enough
TO secure their services again, at least he
has never yet been able to hire the same
band twice.
Well, the boat starts, as does the band,
and so do the boys lungs, the latter to>an,
nounce to all New York and a portion OF
the State of New jersey that the tenth an
nual excursion of the newsbOys is in pro,
sress. The first subject TO engage the
bows attention is the band, who are play
/ inc "Mikado" airs. The $50 resolve them,
| selves into q musical committee to instruct
the band as to their wishes. None o.
your hifalutin music, give us jigs and At
word tunes or we'll throw you overheard, .
is the way their request is put. The band
find it polite to obey and the boys dance
in pairs. Waiting is what they called it
though wrestling would be the better
name.
Then a strong man rolls out on the deck
the first of eleven barrels of yellow paper
bags. Each boy receives n bag containing
a bun, a spice cake, two dOughnuts, a sand
witch and two sections of the destructive
bakers pie. These are disposed of us fol
lows: The pie is first gObbled, the sand
witch follows and then the d~Oughnuts,
Then trouble begins for the band.
