DOVER TOWN COUNCIL.


Special Correspondence Of Gazette and Journal.
Dover. Aug. 7.-Tbe Town Council held
its monthly meeting Monday night.
Much time was devoted 10 the sewage
question, which was brought up by the Board
OF Health. Recently the board discovered

these wells detrimental to the public health.
DR.. II. H.Vau Dyke, representing the board,
told tho councilman that they had right
under the charter to construct sewer
throughout the town and compel the property
owners along the route to tap the sewer.
Arley b. Magee, the town solicitor, ex-
pressed the opinion that II would be unwise
tn attempt to compel property owner TO
tap the proposed sewer unless the Council
was authorized by the General Assembly to
pursue such course. Councilman Morris
offered resolution emhodying DR.. Van
Dykes suggestions, but. on the advice OF
next meeting. The Cecil street sewer being
satisfactory, the Council accepted 1t.
The treasurer reported that the general
fund amounts TO s2,94l6S, and the water
fund TO SIS, 419.
The practice Of looniug the road scraper
was discussed, and the Council decided not
TO loan or hire II TO anybody.
The report OF Dog Catcher Moses Rias,
uolored, showed that catching, killing and
burying dogs Is profitable. For such work,
Rias received over $50 moIth. On Mon
day, he captured a strangers dog; and when
tho owner asked for an explanation, Rias
had him arrested on the charge OF interior
ing with an officer, and he was required to
pay tine aud costs amounting to Sill.
The Council RENTED the fine, and dis
pensed with Rias' services. The president
will select Rius' successor.
The clerk vas instructed TO notify keepers
OF livery stables that the public water
trougbs are not for their sole use, and that
they must cease washing carriages In them.

The closing Of the we'll known dry
goods house OF Hood, Foulkrod & %.
of Philadelphia marks an epoch In the
business history of that oity. 1t has
been in existence for rs years : since
1823-and has had many experiences,
including suspension of payment in
1861, as result of the disturbance
occasioned by the Civil War, the pay
ment Of rs per cent of its indebtedness
at the time and the balance 10 full
twenty years later. The reason for
closing the business is the inability Of
the firm TO secure renewal OF tense on
Ito present quarters at Eleventh and
Market streets and having no other
suitable place TO move into without
curtailing its trade. This stock on
hand has been taken by John Wana.
maker for sale in his store.

The Smyrna Call charges that the
SOD OF DIR. john Torbert OF that town
was attacked by q gang Of rufiians at
Rehobotn, recently; that his clothes
were found upon the boardwalk the
next morning, and that he has not been
seen since. This is suggestive OF brutal
murder, and the Call further alleges
that the State detectives have paid no
official attention to tho affair. II these
charges are true. taken in connection
with the COURSE pursued by one OF the
State detectives in connection with the
recent brutal murder at Milford, it
shows that the partisan majority OF the
last Legislature paid heavy price for
the privilege Of turning out two de-
teotives simply to make room for two
party favorites, to say nothing OF the
disregard Of public interests.

JAMES E. MALONE, of JuneSu, is men
toned as likely to be Dodge county's
favorite for the congressional nomina-
ton at the next democratic congress
ional convention. And why not? Ma
lone is a man of good ability, marvellous
energy and tireless perseverance. From
a chunky little Irish boy wearing stone
bruises along the classic streets of
"Grubville, " he has become one of the
leaders of the Dodge county bar and a
power in local and state politics, all by
his own unaided efforts. Jim" is a
good hater but tireless friend. If the
new Sixth district is to send a Demo-
crat to congress, Malone is the genuine
article and could represent the district
ably. If there is u Democr at in Dodge
county who is entitiad to the nomina-
ton, that person is James E. Malone.

PERHAPS there are few about here
who know that Lieutenant Cushing
whose name and fame spread out over
the world during the war OF the rebel
lion, was born at Dela6eld. But such
is the fact, and the spot, which is near
st. Johns Military Academy, has been
located by United States Army officers.
For several years an effort has been
made by DIR. Sidney T. Smythe, presi-
dent OF St. Johns, to provide q monu-
ment to mark the birthplace Of this
distinguished American. 1t was Lieu
tenant Cushing who with a steam
launch and little crew of brave men
sank the rebel ram Athemarle.
