In a Bad FIX for Cold Weather.

Says the AdrOcdte The steam heat
ing apparatus at the courthouse and
Jail continues to be n source ofaggra-
walton. Some radical changes will
have to be effected ere it will yield
satisfactory results. The company
doing the work is fortunately under
heavy bond, aud outside of the in
convenience and discomfort of delay,
no loss will be sustained. Mr.. w. II. L.
Lewis, president of the court, eX-
pressed to us the conviction, which
he has ever entertained, that the
principle of construction is faulty and
will have to be changed ere the best
results are achieved"
And the Spirit of last Tuesday says:
strangers who may observe the or
nameutal smoke-stack res ting against
the east end of the county prison
on South George street, near Main,
should not jump at the conclusion
that a new and important industry
has been suddenly spirited into the
centre of our town. 1t is simply an
exterior evidence that the County
Court has gotten itself into hole on
the Jail and courthouse heating ar
rangement, and our Over-generous
city fathers have given consent to
have this ornament erected a. a tenn
porary measure of relief for the court
and attaches.

A little Unpleasantness

There was little difficulty at the
corner of Burke and Queen street
last night that is bound to result ser
iously. Quite crowd was gathered
near the entrance to the Equality
Lodge room, when Councilman Berry
came up and said addressing himself
to officer Ed. SMITH:
Whats the natter
The officer, Mr.. Berry says, paid no
attention to the question whatever.
He said to Mr.. Smith:
why don't you answer meF
Il will answer you said officer
Smith, and with that he hauled off
and struck Mr.. Berry stunning blow
and landed him in the street some
distance from the curbstone. There
was a separation about that time be
tween the councilman and the police
officer.
As soon as Mr.. Berry had his dis
colored left eye attended to he re-
turned to the rink and continued
with his duties as member OF the
committee of arrangements. Police
officer Smith proceeded to patrol his
beat. At noon to-day Mayor McSher-
~ issued an order suspending officer
Smith from duty and calling n spec

row night, when there will be all in
