nation has been completed, being that the change from the one system to the other is now made before Umtali is reached.
 yrhe influx into Beira of the considera- ble body of troops who will form Sir Frederick Carringtons force will natu- rally tax the resources of a compara- lively new line, which has hitherto been used mainly for the conveyance of goods. But the Beira company has for ty-eight engines available, the rolling stock is constantly being increased, and, though the present supply of ordinary railway carriages is limited, there is an abundance of trucks, which, with cov- ering to protect against the sun, seem to be preferred by the average soldier in his journeys across country to the ordinary railway carriage, and would no doubt be especially preferred to the diminutive carriages still run on the two-foot section of the Beira line The only difficulty that is anticipated is in respect to the conveyance of horses, but there is a certain number of horse boxes available, and there are also some GOV ered-in goods trucks which might be adapted for the purpose. Happily, too, the line is under the charge of an agent, MT. A. l.. Lawley, who possesses indom- itable energy and resource, and it is re- garded as certain that from his head quarters at Beira he will do everything that is physically possible to facilitate the transport of the troops and their be- longings.-London Times

SULLIVAN IN HIS PAJAMAS.

Some six or seven years ago. said a young man at the race track the other day, to a New Orleans TimesDemocrat reporter, "John L.

It was midsummer, and hot as blazes, and on the afternoon of his arrival the champion of cham pions retired to his room to take a siesta. Presently his bell rang furious ly, and being curious to meet him face to face I answered the call myself. l found him stretched on his bed in suit of pink silk pajamas, gasping with heat.

A WORD TO THE WISE.

A Famous and Historic corner -
 Downes 6 Sons Store.
 C. T. Downes & Son, the grocers, corner of Broadway and York street, continue to occupy large share of public attention from the fact that their store is so abundantly supplied with everything requisite for splendid breakfast, dinner or supper-meals it for gourmands, epicures and all who feel well disposed towards their stom- achs and are willing to feed their faces" with good things. Now 1t takes a good deal of statesmanship of cer- tain description to conduct a grocery store of the best class on principles that appeal alike to all denominations and classes and gratify patrons. DoWnes & Son have demonstrated to their big list of patrons their ability to run first class grocery store and to do as the late George Beckwith of almanac face put it as regards his almanac, run it to do good and make money" The Downes store is on business and historic grocery store corner, and well does the firm maintain the reputation of the corner for first class groceries at prices that enable patrons to live on the top shelf and yet pay but moderate prices. Just now Downes & Son are calling special attention to the fine teas they sell their customers, teas that are teas and that satisfy the most cir cumspect and fastidious buyers and produce well developed longing for more of the same goods

Plumbers Statement Concerning the
 Gamer Street School Contract.
 A formal letter of protest has been sent to the board of education by those plumbers who object to the awarding of the contract for furnishing the heating and ventilating apparatus for the new Gamer street school to the Fuller &s Warren company. The letter embodies the protests made to the committee a few nights ago concerning the awarding of that contract and was in answer to 9tlle request of the committee on schools that the protests be presented in for mal statement.
 The plumbers protesting point out tKhat the specifications call for heat ing and vcntilating apparatus made by the Fuller & Warren company. This company is of course the only one which makes that particular apparatus and To- cal plumbers when putting in that ap- paratus must buy from the Fuller & Warren company. They claim that 1t was unfair for that com pany to bid and it is even charged by some that the specifications were so worded as to make 1t impossi- ble for any other bidder than that com pany to get the contract since the com- pany could of course bid lower on its own make Of goods than any other dealer.
 The formal protest is signed by Shea 7 han & Groark, Clerkin & Mcdonald Rourke Bros, and the Curtis & Piefpont company.

A NEW BRASS MILL.
Persistent RumOrs That One Will Be
Established by Well Known
Ken0sha Men.
MACHINERY IS BEING MADE
Said That Company is Being Organized
to Build Mill in This City-Reeds Will
Be One of the Products.

Persistent rumors are being heard
about the city that company is being
organized here to go into the brass
manufacturing business. From the
reports it seems that the organizat ton
is still in an embryonic state, but there
is little reason to doubt but that the
company will be formed within few
days or weeks, at least.
The agreement which had been
formed between the various brass mills
of the country ten years ago has ex-
PRED, and as a result, several new
companies are being organized. The
Kenosha one will, perhaps, be one of
the first in the field, and as the des-
TIMES of the company will be piloted
by men we'll up in the business, it's
advent will cause a stir in the world of
brass makers. 500
It is not known where the new fac
tory will be established, but as it is
being organized with local capital and
largely by Kenosha men it is thought
that the plant will be located here.
Some people have suggested that the
Sterling building be purchased for the
purpose, but wiser heads seem to think
that a new building will be erected.
The recent changes at the Chicago
Brass mills and the retirement of many
of the best known men of the plant has
led to the talk of the organization of
the new company. That these men
are we'll acquainted with the business
no one will doubt and it is not safe to
think that such men will remain idle
for any length of time. One of the
men whose name has been prominently
connected with the movement, was
seen day or SO ago and at that time
he stated that there was nothing tor
publication at present, but said that
three sets of machinery for the manu-
facture of reeds were now being made
at one of the machine shops in this
city, and theyswil1 undoubtedly be the
property of the new plant as soon as it
is opened.
From the fact that the reed maChin-
cry is being made it would appear that
the company will enter largely into
the manufacture of organ reeds. Keno
sha has always had a reputation as
city where fine Ereeds were made and
the new factory will undoubtedly sus-
tain this reputation in the future. OF
course the plans of the company have
not as yet been made public, but the
announcement will be made in the next
few days.
Kenosha stands ready and willing to
give the glad hand to any organization
of local men who are planning to step
into the industrial world.

SHUTS OFF THE WATER.
Water commissioners Begin the Work OF
Making Kenosha Dry Town.

Some parts of Kenosha are threaten
ed with being known as. "a "dry town,
as City Engineer Moth and assistants
started out this afternoon to shut off
water at the homes of consumers who
have not paid their annual water tax.
This action is taken only after repeat
ed warnings and demands that this
tax be paid. The list of delinquents is
not so large this year as in former
years, but the number will probably be
close on to one hundred.
In past years manyuwe11 known peo-
pie neglected to pay their tithes to the
water company, but this year the most
of the de1inquents are indebted for
only small amounts. The..water shut
off will be turned on again when the
consumer pays his taxes and an extra
dollar for the expense of turning the
water on and off.
