II women can't make CLAIMS neither can
they open oysters, or at least ] wish they
wouldn't try. There is a pale. brown-haired
little widow, who has started a fish market
in New York, and ladies' carriages stop at
her door and busy men check their footsteps
because they pity her, with three or seven
towheads hanging to the strings and the
skirts of her neat white apron. And she
cleans cod or whitehall slowly, but cleans it
very clean. When one asks for oysters and
she takes up the knife. her hands look very
small, and foul or six youngsters tumble
on the sawdust, and the bivalve shuts his
tongue behind his teeth with an air of stern
resolve. She gets the better of him, but it
takes time; takes SO much OF it that all the
other oysters in the basket fell victims to

THE RR-D1vIs1oN.

The report of the viewers on the re-
division of the town has been filed
with the Court at Pottsville and con-
firmed. Of course considerable dis
satisfaction exists-not because the
town has been re divided, as that was
an absolute necessity,-but because of
the boundary lines selected for the
new wards. All the maps submitted
to the viewers were ignored and they
evidently fixed upon their report in
spirit of compromise with a view to
making the result as nearly satisfac-
tory to all as they possibly could. 1t
is to this alone that the parties inter-
ested have to look for consolation.
The maps submitted to the viewers
by the petitioners for the re-division
was, Notwithstanding the claims of
the opposition, based upon lines as
equitable as any that would possibly
be drawn; yet the viewers saw fit to
ignore it and adopt plan of their
own. This, of course, they had per-
feet right to do and if the petitioners
are wise they will submit gracefully to
the decision.
Those who opposed the re.division
are, of course, in kicking" mood.
They, in their own minds, are the
only people who can discriminate be-
tween right and wrong and it would be
unnatural for them not to kick. The
map they had prepared was marked
out so ingeniousIy that had the
viewers adopted it three of the wards
would need another re-division very
soon. The map was cold-blooded, 4,
daring scheme to have the town po-
litically divided to make six Demo.
cratic wards against three for the Re-
publicans. The failure of this scheme
serves as a panacea for the disappoint-
ment sustained by the petitioners.
- 20 the report of the viewers
the scheme was killed, as the new
lines seem to give the Citizens party
some show for life.
