would continue until after vacation.

THE HALL DECORATED.
1t Is Used as a Means to Advertise
Gum,

UuTn.
There is liable TO be another interesting
contest between the New CITY Hall Com
missioners and the firm of OConnell Il
Lewis, which has the contract for building
the dome over the central rotunda. The
contest over the bloom question has just
been settled and work is being hurried at
the foundries.
In the meanwhile the contractors erected
a large fence around the central portion of
the hall in order 20 prevent accidents from
passing pedestrians. The fence is about
fifteen feet high and extends all around
the rotunda.
When sac contract was let the Com
missioners claim that they informed
O'Connel & Lewis that the fence to be
erected should pot be labeled for adveT-
Using purposes.
Several days ago local painter ap-
peared on the scene with six pots of
gorgeOuSly hued paints ard a number of
brushes. by mounting a sIepladder he
managed to decorate the fence from top to
bottom with a highly colored advertise
ment of certain kind of chewing gum.
AS many politician and contractor has
chewed on what he has made out of the
huge pile the advertisement is not with
out certain amount of grim irony.
The Commissioners, however, do not
believe in having the municipal capitol
turned into an advertising agency and are
now considering bow they can checkmate
tho contractors. AS the latter own the
fence and are there To make money they
will not surrender the point without a
struggle.
Action will be taken blythe Commission
ers on next Tuesday morning.

Five days will soon be all the time re-
quired for passenger to journey from
steamers dock in New York harbor to the
heart of London. Arrangements are about
completed for the opening up of a steam
ship route across the Irish channel which
will terminate at Ffshguard. on the Welsh
coast. there to connect with an almost due
east railroad line to London. The advant-
ages of this route have long been apparent,
but the powerful influences of the big sea-
ports have hitherto been sufficiently strong
to upset the plans of those promoters who
have long desired to diminish the period of
travel between New York and London.
The many improvements in marine engi-
neering make certain steady increase in
the speed Of steamships, and when this Is
supplemented by the Strengthening out of
the railroad kinks heretofore existing at the
British end of the journey, there ought to
be no trouble whatever in making the five
days journey a regular thing within few
months.
