seven miles. The big guns can be fired.
in an emergency, at the rate Of once in
every two or three minutes, so the exc
cution which three ten-inch guns alone
would do is not difficult to calculate.
The scheme Of defence which has its
centre at Fort Delaware includes a sys-
tenn of submarine mines, or torpedOes,
for sinking in the channel of the river,
to be fired from the different fortifca-
tions by electricity. These can be
planted in the channel at > any point
within a range Of several miles from
the fortihcations. It is supposed that
this part OF the defence has received
attention as well as the guns, but such
is the secrecy in regard to these mat
ters that nothing is known outside Of
the army officers themselves.

GREAT SUCCESS OF THE FREE
VIOLIN SCHOOL

although Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin
have held but two meetings, at Crosby
q Hill building. 50 many have applied
for membership that it became neces-
sary to change the lesson day to Satur-
day so as to have the entire afternoon
for instruction. Our boys and girls are
not slow to grasp such extraordinary
advantages. and there is no doubt that
the already large enrolment will be
doubled on Saturday next. Tuition is
free; also violins furnished free az the
class. Mr.. and Mrs. Benjamin rely
upon the exhibitions for their compen-
sation to be held at the Grand Opera
House in May next. A visit to The

are Of a high grade. The attendance
embraces young misses and masters

GET THEIR . PAY-JACOBY's
TIME EXTENDED FOR FINISH
ING SILVERBROOK SEWER.
John Jacoby, the contractor of Sill
verbrOok sewer asked the directors of
the Street and Sewer Department at
their meeting last night for another ex-
tension of time for completing the
sewer. He said, in a letter, that he
was unable to secure a certain kind of
pipe required by the department to be
used in the work
Mr. Jacoby asked that the time be
extended to December 4, but President
Pratt objected. Mr.. Webster favored
the request and it led to a general dis
cussion. The time, however, was al
lowed.
City Solicitor Conrad presented a re-
port of the various condemnation COM
missions having been appointed from
July 1 to December l. Accompany
ing the report was a request for the
payment of the fee allowed persons for
having acted on the commissions. The
amount asked for was $3.50. 1t was al
lowed.
Brosius G Smedley, coal merchants
on Union street, sent a letter threat
ening to bring suit against the city
should any damage result to their
property or persons by the bad condi-
tion of the street. Street Commissioner
McCloskey was notified to place ashes
on the street and put the thOroughfare
in good condition.
Secretary Wiley submitted a list Of
street signs which the Police Depart
ment reported had blown down or were
defaced. When the contract was given
out by the Street and Sewer Depart
ment for the furnishing of the signs.
the contractor did not guarantee the
signs. Therefore. no action can be
taken by the directors in making the
sign contractor replace them.
The directors took cOgnizance Of the
letter which Anthony McGarvey sent
to the board at the meeting last week.
in which he threatened to bring action
against the board should Scott street
be closed Mr.. McGarvey's request to
have the street kept clear was consid-
cred and the street was ordered OPEN
ed. Engineer Wilson was instructed
to build a temporary crossing on Scott
street where it crosses the b. G. o. rail

formed at the clearing house that the

The request. should il come to pass,
will be a great benefit to the public at
