Joseph Judge, the Arab, arrested by
the officers OF Station q, was discharged
yesterday afternoon for lack of evil
dence. He was boarding with some
fellow countrymen on Lancaster avenue
and his landlady complained that she
left him alone in the house and
came back TO find 500 missing
She had the money tied up in q handker-
chief and put in the pocket of an old
dress which was thrown on the floor, as
being the safest place, but she could pro-
duce no evidence to convict him with the
crime.
Brief Locals.

The regular monthly meeting of the
Town Council of Johnston was held this
afternoon, and much routine business
was transacted.
The Sewer Needed.
The abundance OF slush and water in the
streets has emphasized the need of good
sewer and the sanitary condition of the
more thickly settled portions of Johnston
point to the same theory. In
talking tse board Sith Of beaItb %emoer ,oss1 Ui
he said: "From what i see and hear
among the people, there is no doubt in my
mind but that the sewer as proposed by
the Business Mems Association will be
brought up and voted for at the financial
town meeting. II will abate many nuis-
ances that are existing and will benefit the
health and property of the town."
Favors Pole I'm the Yard.
The following speaks for itself:
JOHNSTON, April 13, 1894.
To Tue EDITOR or THE NEWS;
noticed your item last evening regard
ing the placing of the flag on the new
school house and feel much interest
~ "ba osNNPe yOhh
to express my views. From the
stand point OF sentiment about everyone
would say let the flag be on the building,
but from practical standpoint / favor
a staff in the yard. II placed on the roof
in the first place a large pole must
be used some 80 feet at least. The sway
ing of this in heavy wind will be con-
siderable and will do no good to the roof
no matter how it is braced. Then in hoist
ing the flag IL as Is generally the case
a school boy is detailed for the duty
there will be a crowd of them playing on
the roof, endangering themselves and
causing leaky roof. A large staff in the
and would be permanent and safe.
1t would be more expensive at first, but
the cheaper in the end. While this is my
opinion / wish some of those who may
differ from me will express their views.
Thanking you for your interest in the
matter, remain, Very truly, J. II. b.
