an estimate of the cost of the i'm
provements. If the cost is not too
much the approaches will be built.
There is no doubt that it should be
done and but little that it will.
The session of the supreme court
held yesterday was more remark
able for the decisions handed down
than the one held last week when so
many verdicts were reversed. This
time out of nine decisions made sew
en- of them were either reversals in
whole or in part of the findings of
the lower courts. This shows one OF
two things, either that the lower
courts are woefully ignorant or that
The higher tribunal is too ready
with it's reversals.
A PLUG Of tobacco is as good a
barometer as any one needs. AS
long as the weather is to be fine the
tobacco will be dry, and if there is
not too much sugar and licorice in
it, will crumble like bark. But just

damp and flexible and the moisture
in the air will make it almost clam
my. No one who chews tobacco
need ever be without information
as to change in the weather, if he
will only watch his plug
