THE POLICE RULES.
The Ordinance Passed, and the New Order
of Things i'm Effect


of Things in Effect
Council, last night, finally passed the
ordinance providing rules and regula-
tions for the government, guidance
and observance" of the police depart
ment, supplementary the general or
dinance passed about two weeks ago,
and both are now in full force and effect.
II is expected that the Committee on
Police, which now becomes Police
Board Of eight, will meet Friday
night for organization. 1t is pretty
generally conceded by those cOnversant
with the practical workings OF the de-
partment, that Council, in seeking TO
bridge over the interval OF four morn
ing hours during which, heretofore,
there have been no police on duty, made
a mistake in setting back the time for
the night force TO go on duty from = p.
m. to 5 D. IN. The effect will be to leave
the city without officers on duty
for about an hour every
evening, while still having
no officers on duty for two hours in the
morning. The trouble will be caused
in the evening by the day force, who are
on duty until ii p. m, going home TO
supper at 6 o'clock, or Whereabouts,
while the night men do not report at the
City Hall for roll-call until p. m, and
some Of them cannot reach their beats
before half-past S. AS the hours are
Incorporated in the ordinance, and are a
part Of the law, they can only be
changed by an ordinance amending the
ordinance just passed.
The other amendments made by the
First Branch, and cOncurred In by the
Second, were not especially important,
except as to Section 40, which will be re-
ferred to below. The rules are required
to be printed in pocket form for the use
of officers, Councilman and others, which
will likely take a couple OF weeks. AT
any rate, they will not be formally
brought to the attention OF the force
until after the meeting Of the COM
mittee next Friday night.
Rule 10 Of the ordinance, as original
ly drawn and passed by the Second
Branch, was as follows;
"Rule 42.-The Sergeant and his
Deputies shall act as city messengers
and shall deliver and execute all official
messages from the Mayor or either
Branch of Council, or chairman OF any
Joint or special Committee OF Council. "
This was not intended TO disturb the
practice Of paying fees for summ2ning
Council or calling Committees, which
items have heretofore added $500 or
500 TO the salary Of the Chief. In the
First Branch there was a movement
70 have this work done for moth
ing hereafter, and accordingly an
amendment was formulated by Mr..
Dobbins, requiring the Sergeant to "act
as city messenger, summons Council
and committees to meet, and shall de-
liver and execute" etc.
When the ordinance came back 10 the
Second Branch, for concurrence In the
amendments, there was some objection
IN the reduction in salary attempted TO
he brought about. 1t was pointed out,
however, that as nothing was said ABOUT
the Sergeant having to do this WORK
without compensation, he would sun
no entitled TO charge, as OF yore, ana
the amendment was concurred In upon
that basis.

Works be instructed to include in the
estimate for the coming year the cost of
covering the street around the Centre
Market with two inches of asphalt"
Referred to Finance, on motion Of
Maxwell.
In the First Branch the members
started in anew on the ordinance pro-
viding rules and regulations for the DO
lice department, and after about an
hours hard work, they were esteemed
perfect and were formally passed and
sent to the Second Branch. There the
amendments were taken up and concur
red in seristim and the ordinance
adopted.
Mr.. Kenney offered the following
WHEREAS, The present Council, the
Chief of the Fire Department, the Com
mittee on Fire Department, and all par
ties directly or indirectly interested, ARE
casting about for a system to better the
condition of the fire department; there
fore, be it

having two sets Of apparatus, an addi-
tiOual paid man, and the chief, when in
need of help at fires, employ as much
help as he deems necessary, at so much
per hour, as the Council may fix"
The resolution was adopted.
In the First Branch, just before ad-
journment, Mr.. EmsheImer presented
the offer of the Loudensville Gas Com
pany, offering to furnish free gas to the
city and sell 10 consumers at 10c per
1000 feet, as heretofore published in

GIRLS Do HONORS.
FIRST LEAP YEAR BALL OF THE SEASON AT
ARION HALL.
A Joyous Affair Happily Participated In BY
Scores Of Young Daneers-0thsr SOclsty
Events on the Tapis

Now, OF course, every organization
strives to give the first leap year ball of
the season. There is sort Of fascina-
ton in navigating the poor, weak males
through the mazes of the waltz and the
intricacies of the quadrille. The ladies
OF the Arion Singing Society had that
honor last evening, and most gracefully
and becomingly did they perform their
delicate duties. 1t was the first leap
year ball OF the season, and for this rea-
son, also, there was considerable more
than the usual interest attached to IT,
The idea was conceived several weeks ago
by the live and energetic ladies OF this
popular organization, and the event has
been looked forward TO with joyous ex-
pectation by the young society people.
While nearly all the ladies OF the
Society assisted in rendering the ball
a success, the young ladies who had
direct charge of the affair were Misses
Amalie Schwertfeger, Emma Schultz,
Mary Stifel, Mary Klein, Emma Breid-
enstein, Maggie Campbell, Carrie Ero,
and Emma Leonhart.
But TO speak OF the hall and the dec
oratlons-well, now. They were beauti-
full. Festooned from the centre chande-
lieT to the four corners of the hall were
streamers Of evergreen, while the walls
were appropriately decked. The chief
decorations, however, were about the
stage, and here picture was effected.
At the front of the stage there arose a
series of arches of evergreen, and de-
pending from the centre Of the middle
one was star formed of flowers, while
from the centre of the two on either
side hung baskets of cut flowers.

The case Of Hanna & Clemans and
Schenk & Sons VS.. Town Sergeant Mar

most OF the day in Justice Ankles court
yesterday. The Marshal was ordered by

horses and wagons belonging to the
plaintiffs on account of their refusal to
pay their taxes. The plaintiffs then
brought suit against the Marshal, alleg-
ing that the Fulton charter is illegal and
the Council an Illegal body. After
hearing the evidence, the Justice took
the case under advisement.

Wanted to Wed.

Yesterday young man, accompanied
by young lady, called at the office of
Justice Ankle and stated that they
wanted to get married. The girl said
her mother died some years ago, since
which time she has been making her
home with her grandmother. Her
father strenuously opposed the union,
and changed the record of her birth in
the family Bible. At the office Of Clerk
Hook the young man gave the snap dead
away by telling Of the fathers objec-
lions. Finding 1t impossible to secure
a license here, the couple left for st.
Clairsville, the young lady being Of legal
age in Ohio.
