 The matter of the Water Com pany's bill again ;ame up. Mir Andrews stated that he was not able to get the ways and means committee and mr. Boardman together and that the last bill for water rent allowed by the old eou ell was missing SO It was impossible to tell whether the bill Is correct or not. hr. Andrews further stited that no one had a copy Of any agreement entered into by the water company and the cltv, and that while the present bill should probably be pald at the agreed rate of s2s per hydrant per year he believed a new contract should be entered into and he thought the rate should be reduced.

 The White Pass boys, although out practically all night, put up gilt edge ball, and only two or three bad errors rer;eord- cd against them. Considering their tired condition they glngered up like profession als and played great ball.
 Thollne, lnsplte of having pitched an elghtlnning game on Saturday put the soldiers guessing with hlo pitching and struck out seven men.
 Lee made a pretty second bag steal dur Ing game. Olsson was In good form at first, and Che out felders grabbed every thing that came their way and hung on to them. Each member Of the nine could easily have something nice said about him, but the phrase 'gllt edge" ball can apply to all of them.

After Mr. Mckinley died one % them

Both were originally taken from the

feeling that il should not be preserved

be put with the other hospital cots and
sold with them. regardless Of its use
during the presidents illness.
"That was done. The cot was placed

THE LOTTERY IN ITALY.
An Institution Under Control of the
Government That Works Injury
10 the People.

One of the curses of modern Italy
is the lottery. An English traveller,
according to the Philadelphia Satur-
day Evening Post, thus describes the
hold that this institution has on the
people:
Saturday in all the principal
towns of Italy is a lottery-day. The
lotteries are instituted by the gov
eminent, which draws a considerable
revenue from them. All Italians
without exception, take part in them,
and their greatest anxiety is TO
choose lucky number. In south
ern Italy the lottery has practically
become a necessity. People talk Of
il all the week, consult msnlSs, priests
and certain individuals who have the
reputation of being able to forecast
the winning numbers. In Naples If
a msn has no money for ticket he
will even sell his bed to get one.
Not content with all kinds of other
expeditions. Neapolitan women Of
a certain rank on the eve of the
lottery 90 in crowds to the ceme-
terry There the spectacle is most
weird. Disheveled women thrOng the
avenues Of the cemetery, calling on
the dead 10 tell them lucky numbers.
They light candles and place other
offerings on the tombs of those
whom they think could bring them
good luck"
