The matter of the charges against the
Arcade depot saloon, which were pre-
ferred by Commissioner Wyman at a
former meeting, were taken up at the
instance of that gentleman, who stated
that since the last meeting he had had
an interview with the proprietor Mr.
Miller who had told him that hereafter
he should keep the doors of his place
locked Sundays, the depot people hav-
ing given him PERMISSION to close that
entrance to the toilet room, which he
had heretofore been compelled to allow
to remain open, although his bar might
be closed. In view of all the circum-
stances of the case, Mr. Wyman felt dis
posed to drop the matter, and he with
drew the charges made. This closed the
incident.
1t had been intimated that the commits
sioners might take some action in regard
to the recent decision by Judge Morri-
son legalzirg the tape games, which had
been temporarily closed. Mr. Gibbon
brought up the subject by remarking
that he thought something should be
done II possible in the matter. He did
not believe that Justice Morrison's decis-
ion was good law, and accordingly Of
tered the following resolution:
Resolved That the clerk of this board
be directed to ask the city attorney to
present at the next meeting an opinion
whether or not It is in the power of the
city council to pass an ordinance regu-
lating or suppressing the tape games
such as have recently been decided legal
by Justice Morrison

1t seems not altogether improbable
that in the investigation OF the y rays
there has bcen discovered an extra sense,
or a fifth sense, for the blind, and, if for
the blind, then possibly another, or a
sixth sense, for those who can see. For
a few weeks "a great variety of expert
ments have been carried on at the BOs-
ton University Medical school with DE-.
James L. Cooke, the results of which
have been most wonderful.
The doctor Is an eminent physician,
being IA graduate of both the Boston
University Medical school and the Har-
ward Medical school, an expert in psy.
cholosy and hypnotism, and, having be-
come blind from the very earliest i'll
fancy, his faculties and senses had been
| trained to the finest point.
Two evenings have been devoted tC
tests with DR.. Cooke, and from them j,
is believed by some Of those who wit
messed them that it is possible by means
of the Y ray TO 50 train the blind IN
mental perception that they can dis
| tinguish mentally the very letters upon
q screen.
The experiments which have been al
+ ready made have demonstrated that let
tiers cut out Of foil and pasted on paper
can be distinguished and identified by
DR.. Cooke with unvarying accuracy ant
without apparent effort on his part.

One Of the best known men about the In

So n few months ago when the news came
10 his old associates on the Board of Trade
that Mr.. Shepard had received a stroke Of

his days of usefulness were over, and that

Hunting the wild Goat.

The White Goat or Rocky Mountain
Goat as it Unfortunately called, is a
species Of big game rarely hunted by
~sportsmen. This lie not so much because
OF the difficulty OF killing the
animal, nor because of It's actual
rarity. 1t is a stupid animal, easily shot
when once found. 1t ia not, however,
found in the usual hunting grounds, as
are bear, deer, elk, etc. 1t is remote from
the common localities, but where found
is in goodly numbers. 1t ranges very
| high up in the mountains, above timber
line usually. among rocks and cliffs.
This requires great labor to get to it, but
once there the hunter will get his game
