an ordinance which would prevent some
Of the poor people from earning a LIVING
Mr.. Hamilton said that it was not
right for a man to stand in front of a
store for which q high rent was paid
and sell the same goods. The peddler
paid no rent and only small license
and could undersell the other merchants
The ordinance was adopted by a vote
OF to 2.
The following message from the Mayor
was read:
Il hava declined to sign the contract
with d. F. Donegsn for furnishing teams
for city use on the ground that it is not
the proper subject matter of competitive
lids. The city should not put the en-
ployment of its men and teams In the
hands of contractors, because whatever
work the city may have to do should be
distributed among the different owners
OF teams, and not concentrate the same
in the hands of one man. The
small amount saved to the city
is not justified by reason of the
hardship caused to poor, men who own
their own teams and depend thereon for
livelihood and many have families, by
depriving them of this work."
The vote whereby the contract was ap-
proved was reconsidered.
Mr.. d. F. Donegan said that consider
ing the amount OF talk that had been 60
ing on about saving interest to the city,
he thought that an item of So, 900 per year,
should be taken into consideration. He
could show where this amount could be
saved, if his contract was approved.
Mr.. Shafer thought that if the Street
Superintendent would employ married
men only with teams and distribute
these to the different wards, he would
be in favor of the Street Superin-
tendent employing the teams.
Mr.. Summerland moved that the OBJ
jections of the Mayor be sustained.
Mr.. McLain moved that the contract
be approved Notwithstanding the veto of
the Mayor. Lost by vote of to 4.
Mr.. Shafer moved that the Street and
Park Superintendent employ married
men only, and that they be selected from
the various wards according to the popu-
lation of those wards. Carried.
Mr.. Summerland moved that the
salary of the teamsters be fixed at $4
per day. No second.
Mr.. McLain thought that ss bid had
been received to do the work for So per
day and under, no more should be paid.
The matter dropped at this point, and
the Council adjourned.

HOW Frenchman Grows Rich on the Re-

How a Frenchman Grows Rich on the Re-
fuse of a River.
Not long ago an ingenious French
man, named M. Souffrice, conceived
and carried into effect plan for col
Letting the grease and other matters
which defile the Seine and making the
former into soap and glycerine. Into
the river flows not only sewage, but re-
fuse of all kinds from manufactures.
Kitchens, ETC., which contains largo
quantities of grease. Along the margin
OF the Seine piers have been constructed
to intercept most of the greasy and
solid matters, which are lifted out BY
laborers armed with huge forks and
spoons, and chemically treated at the
works, the solid matter helping to feed
the furnaces. Having these extensive
arrangements for clearing the river, M.
Souffrice offered to remove all dead
animals between Ansieres and Argen-
teuil. The offer was gladly accepted
by the Prefecture of the Seine. In con.
sequence ofthe vast amount of decay-
ing matter accumulated at the works,
Which are situated at Bouget. immense
numbers of flies were attracted. and
soon gentles appeared in millions.
Some of these were of large size, pre-
sumably the well-fattened offspring of
bluebottles, and eminently suited for
angling purposes. OF this fact the
fishermen of the Seine soon became
aware, and a brisk trade in gentles
commenced. This proving very profit
able, M. Souffrice caused the finger
maggots, or asticots, to be collected.
and had them sheltered and cultivated
in a shed built expressly for the pur-
pose. Under these favorable circuln-
stances the gentles were found to still
increase in size, and the demand be-
came greater than ever. It is stated
that last season no less than twenty
five thousand francs, or one thousand
pounds. worth of gentles were sold
from the factory. In another depart
ment of the same works rich oil-cake,
for feeding pigs. is manufactured It
is to be hoped that pork so fed is all
consumed in France. London Field.

Said he, Stuart has been around McCIel-

The truth was Mcclellan had no cavalry.
The government had not woke I'D to the
need for that arm. Stoneman, with few
regiments, had thirty miles of river to

NATIONAL WASTE PAPER,

How 1t is Assorted by VyatchfuI Maidens
in the Treasury Basement.
Down in the basement of the Treas
ury Department is a room in which
about a dozen girls sit and sort over
the waste paper which has accumulated
from the work of the day before by the
Twenty-Five hundred clerks in the room
above. All of the waste paper of the
department is transferred to this room
by the sweepers at the close of each
day. Then the girls go over it care
fully, piece by piece, and they FREE
Guently make very valuable discover
les Not long ago ten thousand dollars
basket in the office OF the Comptroller
of the Currency, and there was a great
howl about it at the time, but in the
end nobody was punished for the gross
carelessness; but such large sums as
this seldom find their way into the sort
ing room. The principal discoveries
are penholders and stationery which
has been accidentally dropped into the
waste baskets. Sometimes valuable
document disappears in an unaccount-
able manner from the files of. the de-
partment. The rooms are ransacked,
and every one connected in the divi-
sion becomes well nigh crazy. AS
last resort the waste paper room is app
pealed to. In nine chances out of ten,
II the paper has been disposed of in that
way. the girls will find it. They have
become remarkably expert in sorting
over this rubbish. A girl will take 3
mass of it in her hands, and, in less
than the time it takes to tell it, her
sharp eyes will have seen all the differ
ent pieces, and if there is even 4 scrap
that looks as though it might be val
liable. it is carefully laid aside for fu-
ture examination. Experience has con-
.vInced the Treasury officials that these
girls annually save many times their
salaries to the Government The sale
OF the waste paper is one of consider
able imp ortance, and the revenue each
year is, in the course of business,
turned back into the Treasury. where
