When the winter nights close in,
And the pleasant foss begin;
When the moons intrusive light
Is obscuned from mortal sight;
He who burgles by sound rules
Then should furnish up his tools.
As the surgeon whets his knife,
For preserving humanlife;
As the sportsman oils his gun.
With the seasons earliest sun;
So the burglar, cool and keen,
Sees his instruments are clean.
Wipe the jenny, oft It's said
Harder than policeman's head;
See that no corroding grit
Harms the willy centre-bit,
That no rust appears upon
Dainty keys called skeleton.
Although hidden by the mist,
We shall need the shoes of list;
And our modesty may ask
Coy concealment from the mask;
Bulrs-eye lanterns we, OF course.
Carry, like our friends the Is FOrce.n
There's the small revolver. still
Careful burglars do not kill;
Conscientious men like me
Operate in secrecy.
Some directors do the same,
And we blush to find it fame.

NEW CITY HALL.

No city in the world of its size needs
building for city Offices worse than
Cincinnati. The present editice used by
the officials is totally unfit for the pur
pose. The city has out-grown it. BY u
recent act OF the Legislature the authori-
ties were authorized to issue bonds to the
amount of 100000 for the purpose of
erecting II building adapted to the needs
of the municipal government Plans
were adopted and the work began.
The cut above shows the front eleva-
ton as approved by the trustees. Since
its adoption, however, a movement has
been started looking to the condemna-
tion of property near the original site
that would give more room for the build
ing. This would cost $500, 900 more
AS the increased outlay met with some
opposition from the press and people, q
bill was passed II few days ago by the
general assembly referring the matter di-
rectly to the people, to be voted on at the
next election. This election occurred re-
Gently and resulted in favor of the con-
demnation, thus giving space for the
building commensurate with the citys
needs and greatness. This will afford
room for u police station as well as all
other offices required, and will be
II vast improvement on the dingy and
filthy apartments that have disgraced the
Queen City for so many years.
FIRST REGIMENT ARAtoRY.
Several months ago ground was broken
for the foundations of magnificent stone
structure that in the future will be the
home of Cncinnati's military organizes
tions. The picture above shows how it
will look when completed. For years
past the First Regiment and Second
Battery, Ohio National Guard, have been
compelled to put up with very Indifferent
quarters-the former occupying an ex-
pork house and the latter slowed away
in building totally unfit for it's uses.
Finally public spirit was engendered
which set the ball in motion for the
provision of an armory more in accord
ance with the merits of the military and
as just recognition of the valuable
service rendered by the citizen soldiers
during floods and riot. A bill was
