Judge Wisdom had presided with his

VIC had finished tho weeks business, and
wCro all seated at the tablo OF Mrs.
EdgccutS clearinghouse finishing tho
farewell dinner.
Mrs. Edgccut had been worry kind
and attentive to us all during tho week,
and that day shc was moro considCrato
than over. On the table rcposed cold
boiled ham, as hard as n hickory maui
and as stale. We had cut, and hacked,
and chippcd from its callous surface all

BRIDGEPORT.

Another meeting was held yesterday
in Squire Il. Il. Howell Office between oifi-
cials Of the Wheeling Bridge Company and
the Citizens Committee having charge OF
the matter. 1t will be remembered the last
proposition made by the Bridge people was
that they would put the bridge over the
river at KirSwOod on condition that the
village raised $4,000 and that the motor
line would be run out to the west end Of
town if the citizens took half the stock IN
the line. This was hitting the town lit
tie too hard. and the Committee couldn't
accept such burden They have now pro
proposed to make the subscription 5000
and take a half interest in the electric
line. which the bridge people have taken
under consideration. 1t is understood that
the Wheeling X Belmont Bridge Company
are thinking of making the citizens prop
osition.

The above comes from one of the finest and
healthiest portions of the city, and from a
gentleman who knows and appreciates the
benefits Of sanitary surroundings, and who
evidently does not intend TO submit to Il
repetition of last years failure to collect
and remove the garbage. From complaints
received, / am led to believe that citizens
generally are disposed TO resent any at
tempt to repeat last years service. In con
clusion. if the ordinance adopted by the
Second Branch of Council last night should
be passed by the First Branch, and It's pro
visions be carried out in good faith, there
