NOISES MUST STOP, SAYS CONLIH.

THE CHIEF HAS ORDERED A WAR on CRYING
PEDLERs. TRUMPETERs AND CHURCH BELLS.
Another step toward the millennium. The noises
will cease Chief Conlin says and he has the
force at his command to make his promise good.
The war on noises which many thousands OF irate
sleepless and tired human beings have demanded
has begun. No dscordant yells OF street
pedcrs. no more trumpets OF fshmongers. no junk
dealers bells and no church bells; no barking dogs
and bowling cats-everythng must stop and peace
and rest remain undisturbed.
Chief Conlin yesterday morning informed all pre-
cinct commanders that they must instruct the men
under them that those sections Of the corporation
ordinances and sections Of the Sanitary Code which
relate to the suppression of noises must be rgidly
enforced. These sections relate to the blowing Of
horns, crying OF wares all day Sunday. before
a. M and after a. m on week days. or within
two hundred feet OF any church. courthouse, school
or hospital the crying Of clothes lines the beating
Of drums and the playing of hand-organs before
a. m. and after y. m: the barking OF dogs the
bowling Of cats. and the noises made by other ami
mails and the noises Of certain birds (meaning par.
rots). No large bell church bell will hereafter
be permitted to be changed without special permis-
sion having been granted.
The Chief has informed the precinct command
that they will be held responsible for all viola
tions OF these ordinances complained OF in their
precincts.
In relation to the act about church bells. Chief
Conlin said that no specific complaints had been
made about the ringing OF church bells. but that
the section OF the Sanitary Code fully covered the
ringing of those bells. This section reads: mo
large or church bell shall be rung or tolled at any
funeral without permit from the Health Board,
at any other time to the prejudice peril Of life
health or any human being.

FOR COVERING JELLIES.

In these days OF many duties any suggestion for
saving time and labor IS welcome. especially TO the
careworn housekeeper. To this end Mrs Z. A. Ed
wards has found an excellent plan for putting UP
jelles by which the tedious task OF pasting papers
over each glass Is obvlated.
The process not only saves deal OF time. but Is
more thorough than the old way.
Get half a pound Of paraiin, shave II into q small
pitcher vessel from which 1t can be poured and

Interest IN the womens international chess con-

that the contestants knew the game. Chess in pub
