Main street is in a bad state of up
heaval, owing to a change which is
being made in the course of the brook
which flows beneath the street. This
same little brooklet Is the cause of
many and various disturbances of quite
frequent recurrence. Although at
seasons like this is only a dry chan
mel which might be utilized for to-
hoggan shoot (since the last borough
council had it well planked), yet there
are times when the volume of water
is greater than the channel can ac-
| commodate. When this occurs the
water always finds way out, and
| quickly transforms Main street into
| mel is altered and the street rebuilt,
| and this is usually followed by an
! other freshet. The next borough coun-
! ell prescribes another change, and the

rather pronounced declines occurred In Sugar,

Island. While the general tone throughout the
greater part Of the day was rcactOnary, there
were periods of steadincSs when the shorts re-
duCed their lines. Some comment aroused
| by sudden marking up of General Electric to

Reports OF a combination with rival concern
and excellent earniSs were circulated, of which

steel group were comparatively narrow, but early
losses generally recovered in the late after
noon on reports OF improved trade conditions In

SO his wife makes fun of him.

was: can angel came down from

it upon the altar" He kept this
in mind, and when his wife asked
him if he remembered the text, he
replied, ~ guess l do; | am too
