Lien Law Decision.

The State Supreme Court recently de-
eided in two separate casea that a sub
contractor engaged in tho erection OF a
building has no lien against the building
if the the contractor provides that the
building shall be delivered free of liens
All contracts contain that proyiso, but
heretofore il was not supposed that it
effected sub-contactors and material men
who are not parties to the contract and
whose lien is given to them by statute as
an extraordinary remedy,
This Interpretation of the law practically
wipes out the Mechanics Lien law, which
has been in operation since 1886, and make
all people who do work on or furnish
material for u new building look to the
principal contractor alone for their money
Its effects vii! le far-reaching, and the
parties interested In 1t haze nst yet grasp
ed its full meaning.-The general opinion
thus far is very much in favor of the
decision a. tending to freeze out all dis
honest contractors and raising such
transactions to higher Level. II certainly
will relieve the owner Of tho building from
much annoyance and anxiety; but whom
the brieklayers, plasterers, masons,
painters, lumber dealers and others find,
however, that they will not have the
slightest claim against building on which
they are working there 4ay be trouble to
keep them at work, unless the contractor
is perfectly first class financially

The Election Tomorrow.

Tomorrow Saturday the polls of But
Ter will be open from Z q. NJ. to D. IN.
and the regular election officers will pre-
side.
We do not suppose that the people of
the town were ever asked to vote ON a
question 20 little understood.
The political elections have engrossed
public attention and the subject matter Of
this election has been but little discussed.
Briefly stated. the situation is about this
Our town needs some improvements, needs
them badly Our Main street, the streets
leading to the depots and two or three
more Of the most greatly Travelled streets
should be paved inlmediately;and system
Of sewerage should be started, that is,
main sewers or outlets should be put in at
the expense Of the town, and thus giving
the people m opportunity To avail them
selves of the Sewerage Act
The question, "Will We borrow money
to make these improvements or will we
notyr
The assessed valuation OF the town is
about eighteen hundred Thousand, the town
owes twelve thousand, aud the Council has
. right under the law to borrow twenty
thousand more without an election, and if
the people give their assent tomorrow,
they will have right to borrow hundred
Thousand more, or seven per cent. of the
assessed valuation.
If the Council borrows the twenty
thousand dollars they can pave part, per-
haps all, of Main street and put in the few
rods of main sewer from the west end OF
Jefferson ST.. to the proposed outlet, but
the other parts of the town will be neglect
ed, and that condition will remain for
years.
If the people vote them more money,
they will pave all of Main St. this summer
put in both main sewers, and pave the
other streets as the people petition for
them-the Council cannot go faster than
the people desire.
More money will be borrowed only as it
is needed, the bonds will run for long
number of years and at a low rate of in
SCicott lilC SIftCto tA1S otI p"FNN ''aiA 'A1SN
but little, if any, attention for years, the
taxes will be but slightly increased; and
we will have the benefit OF these improve
ments Immediately.
The argument, it seems to US, is all one
sided and in favor of giving the Council
the authority to borrow the necessary
money, and we believe that Butler has, al
presents as good set of men on its Council
as has any town Of its size in the State, or
a. it over will have, and that they have
been looking and will continue to look
after the interests Of the town as carefully
NJ after their own private affairs.
IT was pretty heavy joke ON the
English syndicates which bought up all

Hartman, and, believing that he had

engagement he had mentioned when he
met her and babe her good night. In

artist whom he had known for years.

IS bound to create an immense sensation.

AS Henry Henshall went into Stein
way hall he caught sight of DR.. Watson
standing over at the right hand entrance.
Their eyes met, and each felt that it was
war to the knife between them.
"What rascality is he up to now?' the
young artist muttered to himself, as he
followed his friend into the hall.
1t was well filled. The new ~violinist
had been thoroughly advertised. 1t was
claimed that she was the greatest Of
her sex in the use of the violin, and that
Ole Bull, Joachim or Sarasati could not
bring more clear and passionate tones
from the instrument"
Henry Henshall read this on the pro-
gramme with a smile. The concert was
well on in the second half, and a woman
was singing a solo when they entered.
The next number was by Schumann,
and was to be by the brilliant Louise
Neville"
The hall was so full that Henshall's
friend said they would stand in the rear,
as it would be a bother to go way down
to the front of the house where his seat
was, and besides he wished to remain
with Henshall, who had only purchased
an admission ticket.
The young artists attention was dis
tracted by his reveries ON DR.. Watson.
81 must get Mrs. Smith to make a
charge against him hat will lead to his
arrest if it becomes necessary to protect
my ideal from him. But she must still
be under his destinations, for she wishes
to avoid this if possible"
At this moment the applause drew his
attention to the stage. The audience
had evidently been carried away by Miss
Neville's playing, for they were greet
ing her appearance for the Schumann
number with that hearty clapping of
hands which is the artists most cordial
and inspiring greeting from the public.
He glanced at the beautiful girl, who
advanced with a dignifed manner to the
front of the stage, slightly smiling her
recognition of the greeting which had
been given to her.
One glance told him that Louise New
lille was his ideal Of the Wagner car.
The fair face was that which had haunt
ed him so constantly, waking or sleeping.
"Give me your glass for a moment"
he exclaimed excitedly to his friend, al
most snatching it from his hand. He
levelled it straight at he girls face. She
had put the violin under her chin, and
the fingers of her left hand were lightly
touching the strings.
San Antonio daily light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1886-1907, 1890-10-22

She had put the vtolin under her chin.
Yes! 1t was she. The dream Of the
artist soul stood before him, fairer than
he had imagined. She was dressed very
simply in a gown Of white satin, with a
large sash of white silk at her slender
waist.
He felt a thrill of delight! She seemed
nearer to him than ever. The purpose
which he had sworn in the Wagner car,
when it seemed so wild and impossible
to carry out, now seemed to the excited
young man a very easy matter.
He felt that her position as a public or
professional performer argued some diff
Guilty in her family, and he was not slow
to think that in this way the beautiful
girl had sought to escape from the hate
full DIR. Watson.
The next moment he was entranced.
A strain of music of the most delicious
sweetness streamed from her bow as she
lightly swept it over the nut brown in
strument which she held 30 c~aressingly.
Henshall was passionately fond OF
music. He had heard her wonderful
playing in the car, and 1t had held him
In thralI; but that could not be compared
to this.

her best effort. In the inspiration Of the
moment she forgot all but her art. The
