CITY GOVERNMENT,
Regular Monthly Meeting and I'M
portant Business Considered.

The regular monthly meeting of the
city government was held last evening"
Roll of accounts No. 225, carrying to-
tai of S27.969.92 was passed
The insurance of the City building
was then taken up, but was laid on the
table until later in the meeting.
The committee on electric lights was
authorized to place an incandescent
light on Myrtle street in accordance
with an order already passed
1t was explained that the reason this
had not been done before was because
the lights could not be furnished by
the Messalonskee Electric Co. for 81
per year. while the w. & F.. r. & l.. Co.
would charge SIS. but that the former
company was not yet in a position to
furnish the power.
TIE committee on claims was au-
thorIfied to investigate any claims
Geo. Fl. Vigue and John Carry might
have against the city for laying sewer
and to determine what sum should be
paid.
Harvey d. Eaton was present and
explained that if the city would pay
the cost of printing he would have the
contracts with the Messalonskee Elec-
trio Co. the location of poles granted,
the powers of municipal authorities in
such matters, some of the law relating
to the setting of poles and the opinion
of the court on the law. He thought
this would make pamphlet of about 10
pages and would cost about $40 for a
sufficient quantity. The matter was
laid on the table until later in the
meeting.
An order from the council authoriz-
ing the repair of the sidewalk on both
sides of Green street was referred to
the committee on streets by the alder
men.
c. T.. Kelley was granted a license to
conduct billiard and pool room in the
Lightbody block on College avenue.
The two branches then went into
joint convention and on the recon-
mendatien Of the management of the
Riverside worsted mill elected Sanger

lumber.
MIR. Annie was also appointed a pub
lie weigher by Mayor Blaisdell and the
appointment approved by the aldermen.
Albert Field was granted a license
for billiard and pool room at No. AZ
Ticonnic street.
The aldermen then went into execu-
tive session.
No ootion was taken either on the
City building insurance or Mr.. Eaton,s
project.

TO TEACH GIRLS A TRADE.
An Institution the Like Of Which Every
City Should Have.

New York is just about opening what
every city Of any size should have-a
trade school for girls. Its promoters
explain their intent by saying that
their object has been to find out what
trades employ women, and then to edu-
cate skilled labor for those trades. This
has been done before to some extent,
but not thoroughly. as 1t is intended
this shall be. The trades are, to use
the phrase of the secretary of the new
school, Miss Louise B. Lockwood, the
needle trades. the machine trades and
the glue-pot trades" Besides the
dressmaker and milliner, users Of the
needle make the finer grades Of en-
broidery on chiffon, passementerie and
fine shoes. lacemaking, fine hemstitch-
ing and fire neckwear. The machine
trades include garmentmaking, dress
making and tailoring. The -glue-pot
trade comprises artificial flowers,
feathers, boxes, fans, lamp shades.
and SO on. Employers and
employed have been talked with, and
and needs of the trade dis
cussed. Everywhere except with the
employers have welcomed

or, rather her evolution into the strong,
manly girl. who could tramp for ten
miles. swing ''brassey." swim, canoe
and shoot with as much ease as her
brother and chief among those deploring
ones Were the masculine members of So
ciety. IL was awiully Jolly" of course
to go off on n long jaunt with girl who
wasn't "a bit of a bother. and who never
screamed or needed assistance when
crossing a rickety bridge or climbing
steep mountain. But there is a strong,
everlasting, underlying current in the
masculine composition which though he
may call it a bother" makes him really
like performing these little services for
dependent femininity.
The athletic girl was all right in the
long rambles and picnics as long as prac.
teal topics held the attention, but it was
absolutely impossible to give to her that
sentimental admiration which her prede-
cessor won, and which the masculine
heart really loves to give to the depen-
dent woman. He fonnd.it a difficult task
to sit on a moonlit porch and whisper
sweet nothinSs to a girl who could beat
hlm at tramping, and impossible to adj
mire one who could play better game Of
golf than himself and whose hands were
as large. if not larger, than his own Her
straight tailor-made costume had moth
ing of the charm OF the ruffies and fuss
which he could never understand, and
which consequently had for him the
charm of mystery. They were distinctly
feminine. and. as such, he admired them.
SO, while he liked the athletic girl. while
he found her an agreeable companion. he
found it a hard matter to .love" her and
in his desire to love somebody he regret
ted the passing of the dainty feminine.
The athletic girl was. perhaps, among
the first to realize this, and she thought
that she didn't care" Independence
was her watchwoId. and she decided to
live her life Independently
But there is in the feminine heart de-
sire which she cannot control, no matter
how independent she may be. and that Is
n craving for masculine admiration and
approval.
1T is owing to this craving that the ath
1etic masculine girl is declining. 1ndepen-
dence was great thing. but opposed TO
that was life whose charm has appealed
to women ever since the time of Mother
Eve-the life of a queen, not a Jolly fel
low" and to the charm of this life the
athletic girl is succumbing.

Exit Athletic Girl.

The passing Of the athletic girl Is oc-
cupying the attention of some of the most
profound students of the woman ques-
tion'' and on all sides is heard the verdict
that her knell las been sounded-the attn
Ietic girl has been proven failure. The
people who favor this idea, as a proof.
point to the styles of this years summer
girls-styles which certainly do by their
abundance Of rufTies and furbelows be-
speak the externally feminine" 1t is
true that for some years the summer girl
has been strictly stiff and masculine In
her choice of costume and amusements
that in her conversation and manner she
has tried and in many cases tried sue
to initiate her brother, and that
she lost much of the dainty clinging girl
which is supposed to win the
heart.
There were many who deplored the loss
Of this dainty feminine giriish creature.
