At the Council meeting last W Wednesday eve
ming, Shan Fuller made a complaint against base
ball playing on Water street The result of his
complaint was that the Council passed an ordi-
nance to prohibit base ball playing in the central
part of the village. 1t will. be some seventeen
days from the passage of the ordinance before it
can take effect. as the paper in which the ordi
nances are published, does not come out until u
week from the time of the passage of the ordi-
nance. and then the ordinance does not take eff
feet until ten days after its publication. The

Five republican Office seekers were
seen wandering about the Temple OF
Justice Friday, endeavoring to famil
iarize themselves with the grandeur of
its architecture and to assimilate the
peculiar atmosphere permeating its
several apartments peopled by stately
dignitaries, with that of their native
realms scented with the products of
nature and undefiled by the smell of
filthy lucre. At their next visitation
they will probably venture to inquire
the way into some of its offices and
perhaps pluck up courage enough to
enter the one over whose affairs they
are burning to preside. Competition
seems to be great among our republi-
can friends this year and some lively
times are promised.
