GuiSe of PeddlerS.
The police are still arresting suspi-
cious characters, and Justice Davis
court will have plenty to do for some
days to come in disposing of them.
Notwithstanding the large number of
strangers gathered in and on whom
suspicion rests, there are yet plenty Of
new corners in town, and they are
working all sorts Of schemes to gain
entrance to houses. Some claim to be
piano tuners, others are peddlfng wash
ing fluids, others still are seeking old
gold jewelry in exchange for cheap arti-
cles, and even the deaf and dumb racket
is not neglected.
The chief object of these fellows is to
get inside residences on one pretext or
another, in order to get an idea of the
location of the rooms with a view to
committing burglaries. 1t suits them
all the better if they do not find anyone
at home. By several men calling at
private houses they cover a great many
streets in one day, and have a pretty
good chance of finding some houses
where the family happens to be out
temporarily.
Even at the risk of doing an injustice
to a few honest men, the best thing that
women can do these times is to refuse
TO entertain any proposition that the
itinerant horde may offer There ap-
pears to be a gang of strangers now
operating here and they should not be
given an hours rest until they find it
profitable to move on.

9OLLET'S BOND APPROVED.
He VIII Go On With His Work as
Plumbing Inspector.
Devine and Kent Rail Against the
Doctors and Say They Defy
the Trustees.

/ AT the meeting of the Board of Trus-
tees last night the Corporation Counsel
reported in respect to the question
as to whether the board must act upon
the bond of V. J. Tolley as Plumbing In
| spector. He held that it was the duty
OF the board to either approve or reject
it. The Board of Health, he thought,
had a perfect right to discharge the
present Plumbing Inspector and elect
Mr.. Tolley, if it saw fit.
| Devine spoke hotly against the ap-
proval of the bond, claiming that the
Board of Health had defied the Trus-
tees.
| The action of the board in postponing
/ the approval Of the bond for two months
was rescinded.
Devine moved that the bond be re-
jected. The present Plumbing Inspector,
Mahoney, had held his office only about
hold it year. He thought the bonds
men were responsible, however.
Tozer and Bentley said that the only
question was in the adoption of the
bond. The Board of Health had an
undoubted right to appoint whom they
pleased.
honey should not have served his full
year. He thought it was scheme of
the Board of Health.
Leonard said that he voted with seven
others of the board to abolish the Office
of Building and Sanitary Inspector, be-
cause he was satisfied by observation
that one man could fill the Office. He
was ready to vote to reject these bonds,
because he did not like the system
adopted by the Board of Health. He
believed that the Trustees should be
and were the ruling power.
]. w. Hughes, who appeared for Toll
ley, said the question before the board
was not what the Board of Health had
done, but whether the bond was good or
not. 1t was the duty Of the board to
either accept or reject the bonds.
Mr.. Hughes asked if Devine consid-
cred it his duty to reject bond for
such reasons as he had given. when he
acknowledged the bond to be good and
sound Devine said it was his prerog-
ative, and he proposed to exercise it.
He moved to reject the bond.
Kent said he would vote to remove
the whole Board of Health. He did not
believe in the doctors defying the Trus-
tees.
Devine's motion was lost, and the
bond was approved, Devine, Kent and
Leonard voting no.
