given to a fitting recognition of st. Patrick's

usual ladies' matinee from Wednesday
to Tuesday, the opening of the audi

WATER RATES.
Special committee a water rate schedule re-
ported that the changes made by the aldermen
were slight The house committee recommend

poses, and the board proposed sliding scale
from 50 TO Is cents. Mr. Hanford, of the COM
mittee, gave reasons why uniform charge
should be made. After CONNECTIONS were made
the cost OF pumping per gallon was uniform.
Superintendent Chalk thought 1t would b
very unjust to charge large consumers the same
rate as small consumers. In small establish
