the dividend because of the poor earnings for the
las quarter. Manhattan weakness affected the
entire list but the losses generally confined
TO the fractions. Around midday the official an
nouncement made that the directors of the
Manhattan had declared the regular dividend Of
112 per cent payable Ocober l.
The Western Union executive committee has
also recommended the payment OF the regular
quarterly dividend. Another favorable develop
ment was the statement of the st. Paul road for

showed a surplus of So SIS, 202 against a deficit of
S302, ,735 In 1875. The directors are to meet late
in the week and act the dividend, and the Off
cials of The American Sugar Refining Company
will also convene for the same purpose within q

The copper country evening news. [volume] (Calumet, Mich.) 18??-1907, 1896-01-18

Charles ]. Traver, assistant engineer
Zones Crandall and William wilkins,
firemen. at the water works, never had
occasion to doubt the accuracy OF their
own eyes. but yesterday morning some
thing appeared before their vision
which for a moment caused them to be
a little skeptical as 30 the reliability
of their optics. The appearance OF a
real live deer was what occasioned their
doubts. The animal came through Mar
ian avenue yesterday morning and went
within a few feet of the water works.
With an agility acquired by resi-
dence in the Adirondacks, the animal
vaulted a barb wire fence and crossed
the Fitchburg railroad tracks and
made for the Excelsior Spring woods.
For fully twenty minutes the deer
stayed around the edge of the weeds
and then disappeared into the interior.
The deer was a doe, weighing fully 200
pounds. 1t probably took a notion 10
make a pilgrimage toward civilization
Its life is safe unless somebody vio-
lates the game law. The doe has not
been seen since il entered the woods,
where she may conclude to spend the
winter. The doe is in town under the
protection of the game law. Had 1t
not been for that law the animal would
probably not have lived ten minutes

Care OF Clstern.

The Lancet gives considerable space
&c the discussion OF the position ana
care OF eis,erns. II ia OF the utmost
Importance TO have the reserve stock
OF water used for cooking and drink
ing purposes. especially the latter. un-
der the constant and watchful eye OF
en- interested person. Many cisterns or
tanks are placed in attlcs, many of them
in positions almost Inaccessible, others
are so arranged that foreign substances
can easily fall into them, and Offering
no bar 10 the entrance of vermin OF all
sorts. One tank was found covered
with a carpet that had been worn out
on the floor OF living-room; having
served its purpose as a tioor-coyering.
il was thrown over this tank, and, with
every movement. the dust. and what
ever germs might have lodged there,
others are found with loose board COW
ers which were used as shelves, or
places where various articles were laid
for convenience sake. There Is neither
sense nor reason IN tanks arranged In
this way. They are menace TO health
and a reflection on the good judgment
OF those who build and use them.
Tanks should be so fixed that all pipes
are soldered in, and cover fitted so
closely as 10 be practically alright.
Tanks that stand open in attics or up
per rooms are fruitful sources OF dis
ease. and ought to be superseded by
something more sanitary and clearly.
