After his election the commissioner
decided that he was an employee of
the city and could therefore not be
required TO work more than eight
hours day. The Mayor submitted
the question to the Attorney General
and that official decided that the
street commissioner was not an en-
plOyee but an elective officer of the
city, and was therefore amenable ia
all particulars to the city ordinances.
The street commissioner disregards
this opinion. however, works eight
hours and puts in his bill for S1.25.
The mayor regularly vetOes this bill
and the council regularly allows il
over his vote. The mayor gives his
side in last weeks Union, and the
TejOinder of the commissioner and
council will be awaited with interest.

"A young man claiming TO be from
New Mexico and bearing the cognomen
or Norris Battle. has been cutting quite
figure among the Fulton girls. He,
with his elaborate wardrobe and
smooth tongue, has captured the hearts
OF every girl Of Fulton, with whom he
has come In contact with, In fact, 50 seri-
Gus has he paid attentions to one young
lady in particular that 1t has caused
many q useless quarrel among the other
fair maids Of this beautiful suburb.
The facts are that Battle was evidently
out on lark, and has at this time
wife in Lynchburg. This young lady's
father thought that 1t was about time
that he should know something of his
prospective son-in-law, and consequent
ly he lnstigated u thorough search as

that Battle was married man.

CLEVER WORK.
Slick Negro Thief Captured by Detective
HeDDel

oiiSh Negro HleI captured Dy detective
Heppel.
Something less than a year ago an
old colorcd man named John Reed and
n young colored mas named Charles
Lewis worked together at East's barrel
factory and slept together at the house
of VIM. Henley, colored. on Calvert
street. On the night of December 9Th
last Reed was robbed of slSS.27, and
about the same time Lewis disappeared.
The Police Department was notified and
have been working on the case ever
since. AT times they thought they had
Lewis located, but 1t was the old story
OF the 1r!shman's flea.
Yesterday morning Detective Sergeant
Eeppel saw Jack Smith, colored, q
chum of Lewis, come or the Bay Line
steamer, and thought 1t worth while to
watch Jacks movements. He followed
him up TO Lewis sisters house and
there saw letter pass between them.
He then followed Jack across the river
to Portsmouth and out toward the Sea-
board Air Line shops. The detective hid
about the bushes and kept his eye on
the young negro. Soon he was rewarded
by seeing Lewis himself put In an ap-
pearance, that being their trysting place
for a trip to Savannah, as he after
wards learned. BY sharp manoeuvre
the detective soon had his prisoner,
and he is now behind the bars in this
city. 1t was an admirable piece Of de-
tectlve woEk.

make arrangements for the prompt and
systematic enrolment or tho pupils and
TO prepare to open the schools on the

the indications are that the attendance
Will be larger than ever this year.
This may prove embarrassing at the
High School. Only eleven were grad
uated: there was an enrolment of ITS
and and an average attendance Of 160
scholars. If large proportion of the
graduates Of the grammar schools, who

who attended tho High School last year
should return the rooms would be
crowded. Deductlng the eleven who
graduated the remainder Of those who
are eligible to attend the High School
is 259.
There are several changes in the
teachers as follows: At the Brambleton

Editor Of the Virginian:

white child-wf1o, abandoned by her
parents wnen an Infant, is being raised
by a colored woman, said woman being
In destitute circumstances is now OBJ
liged TO solicit aid in order to continue
her care of the child. While all praise Is
due TO her who has for three years and
no doubt, at the cost OF severe self
denial and deprivation, given shelter and
food to the little one. WILL nevertheless,
suggest through the medium OF your
Journal, If you will kindly allow me to
do SO. that steps be taken TO remove
the child from its present surroundings,
and to place 1T in an asylum dedicated
to just such unfortunares. In my op-
inion such proceeding would be Of far
more benent than would the most
abundant supply of food and clothing
under the state Of affairs now existing.
AS the child's condition is now a pitia-
ble one, and az time passes the result
Will be, as every thinking person Will,
am sure agree with me in saying, a
most deplorable one.
There are many influential persons in
this city who can easily place the child
under proper care. and to such is my
suggestion rendered. A READER.

shanties, the homes" of the miners,
nesting amid the culm banks and there
is an occasional group Of unhealthy
looking trees great rabble Of
bearded and sallow men were gathered
before one of these shanties, and from
time TO time a gaunt and bony figure
would push to the front and harangue
his companions In a strange tongue, the
comments and criticisms Of his hearers
mingling with his gutturals in an abso-
lutte babel. Twenty different languages
are spoken in Hazleton. and there 1t
seemed as If all were being spoken at
once. The meeting decided to take no
action until Monday. when a committee,
consisting of four Poles four Italians
