township officers should take advantage
Of that law which authorizes the pay
ment of the pensions of men Of intern
perate habits to guardians. who shall
expend the money for their support.
Every man who spends a pension in de-
bauchery is worse off than if he had
none. This fact should be recognized by
the pension laws. and will be when the
code shall be revised with view Of sole
ly benefiting the pensioner and those
depending upon him. Many of the pen
sioners who waste their pensions in de-
bauch are assisted by township trustees.
In such cases the trustee is in duty
bound to see that the pension is paid to
a guardian who will expend it for food
and shelter, and thus relieve the tax
payers from the burden of his support.

LOOKING FOR WORK.
Anxious Seekers in the City Hall, After
Employment.


Employment.
On Monday mornings, early, city nall
is as lively as Manton svenue during
mill strike.
By the word "early' is meant up to o
O'Clock for that is the hour at which city
officials begin their duties. Long before
that time, however, there is gang of
laborers looking for work, corralled in the
lower corridor held at bay by Officer
Pointer, single handed, until the O'Clock
gong sounds when they go up the msin
staircase with s.rusb to register their
names on the waiting list in he executive
department. There were 200 Of them this
morning, mostly Italians with large
sprinkling OF Portuguese with rings in
their eHrE, which would indicate that
pounding payements and digging sewers
Is more.proRtable than going before tho
mast.
All OF these asprants for houest toll
gave their names and addresses To George
Young, the Mayors messenger and, then
the list is turned over to Mr. Dorney,
the executive secretary and chairman OF
the Democratic city committee for ref
ersnce. The first man on the list gets the
first vacant job and so on down the coll
umn as fast as word is received from tho
commissioners of public works that q man
Is wanted.
1t is rather pathetic looking crew
that congregates Monday morning. Most
OF the mon are middle aged and have
anxious looks suggestive OF fam
lily packed away in some cheap tenement,
the very keeping of which perhaps de-
pends on this weeks success In getting a
Job.
The knights OF the spade nnd piclSaxe,
however, are not the only anxious walters
OF city hnll OF a Monday morning. In
tho office OF Mr.. Esten OF the school de-
partment there is crowd OF school
teachers, whose names are on he city SUBJ
stitute list, who have come down early in
hopes that in some.of the many school
rooms there will be temporary vacancies
which they may be called upon 10 fill.
