The Board of Aldermen meets to-
night. The attention of the members
of the board is called to three things.
First, the much needed improvements
to the fire department are just as bad
" needed as ever and the people are
waiting for some action. Secondly,
the Smith street sewer is something
that should be finished this fall and
should be acted upon at the earliest
possible moment, and thirdly, the
people are still waiting to hear the
fate of the Washington street paving.
Ihe petitions and circumstances re-
ceived several weeks ago were referred
to a committee and nc report has been
heard on the matter as yet.

FREE OF CHARGE.
'If Or. HOward's Dyspepsia Specific Does
Not Cure You, it is Free" says
C. A. Sexton.

"Not only will l sell a so cent bottle of
DIR. Towards Dyspepsia specific at half
price, but l will agree to refund the mon
ey if my customer is not satisfied with
the remedy" said G. A. Sexton the pop
ular druggist to a Evening News man.
ain other words" he continued, ''the
specific is free if it does not cure.,'
Mr.. C. A. Sexton has sold hundreds of
bottles on his special half price introduce
tory offer, and has a few left for those
who are fortunate enough to call at his
store before they are all gone. 1t is the
regular so cent size, containing sixty
doses, and is the one remedy for consti-
patton and dyspepsia that makes perma-
nent cures.
DR.. Towards specific for the cure of
constipation and dyspepsia is not an ordi-
nary tablet or powder that simply relives.
This remarkable discovery makes COM
plete and permanent cures. Mrs. Char
lotte W. Wallace, of Manchester, N. H.,
writes: A few years ago l had a severe
attack of Dyspepsia. Water distressed
me as much as food, and l could find no
relief. My druggist recommended DR..
Howard's specific very highly. This
great medicine gave me relief at once,
and l nave never had another attack of
dyspepsia.
If you cannot go to c. A. Sections
store to-day, send him your order by
mail, as he has only a limited amount
left to sell at this special half price.

iMIDDLE-AGED WOMEN'S DRESS
Its Limitations If 1t Is to BE Kept
Within the Pale of Quiet
Elegance.

There is a limit, vol know" said a
middle aged woman, whose milliner had
been urging her to buy a large, fiat hat,
shelving out in front. It's all very we'll
to say that there are no old women now
adays, and that we can all dress alike,
at any age, but it's a matter in which
good taste and common sense must set
a check upon fashion"
But you look young" said her friend,
according to the New York Tribune.
Thank you, my dear! But if that
statement has any foundation in fact,
apart from your favorable view, it is
simply because | don't pretend to be
young. If I dressed like a young girl, |
should look old. It's true that there are
mo distinctive styles now for young and
old, but there are subtle notifications
that make all the difference. At my age
\ we must be freer in some particulars, and
Rmore restricted in Others"
4 81 don't quite see what you mean by
that, though / do understand about your
subtle notifications think you man
age them to perfection. But, as to free
dom and restrictions"
"Well, we can have a little more free
dom from the tyranny of styles for ex-
ample. We needn't always appear in the
very latest thing If we have a two
year-old waist hat has not a very long
front, or a stock collar too high for this
summers prevailing mode, we can wear
them without fear that the girls will
say we look as if we had come out of he
Ark. With years and honors, we have
surely won some little emancipation
from the smaller tyrannies of fashion.
We have outgrown our dread of a back
6&HkaEober.' We 4 even dare to adopt
|Atividual style of our own, which
III Unconventional youth could hardly
zklpon. But, on the other hand,
arg some things we must not, can
h6eSdare not wear!"
For instance?"
"For instance, big picture hats, fiat
hats without trimming on the top, big
flying wells hanging down at the back,
at lot of knotted ribbon ends, and all such
youthful tufts and frills. And we should
avoid bright, delicate colors in large
masses, using them only in small guam
titles to relieve an all black or very dark
costume. A middle aged woman should
never adopt conspicuous styles, or go
to extremes in any way; she should study
the little less that gives quiet elegance.
She should delight in black, and her favt
orite combination should be black apd
white. But she need not be afraid of a
touch of pale color-a line Of BIZ or
even rose-if it's only a line. wi Il, of

In reviewing the political situation
throughout the State, the Trenton
True American, one of the leading
Democratic journals of New Jersey,
has the following to say regarding
Middlesex:
The chances for a Democratic SEN
ator from Middlesex seem bright.
Assemblyman Cannon, it is argued,

enough votes in the township to elect
him.

or not at all. If that had been the
case there would have been no contests
at any of the polling places. Every
Republican and every Democrat had
equal chances to have his name up at
the primaries and it was for the voters
of the parties to choose who they
would nominate. 1t seems evident
that the more familiar the voters be-
come with the new law, the more
satisfied they are with it.

The reporter who wrote the story
about the carnival in the Evening
News yesterday afternoon neglected
to state that both bands played Hia-
watha. The band that remained on
the float, within hearing distance of
the crowd on shore, played it twice,
anyway, and some people swear they
heard it three times. The band on the
sloop playe ed the tune once before
leaving the dock and how many times
while out in the stream, may never
be known.

FALL RIVER WAGES CUT.
Ten Per Cent Reduction IN Cotton
NILS. but Strike Unlikely.

Fall River Mass Nov. 11.-Notices were
posted in the cotton mills OF this city this after
noon announcing a general reduction Of 10 per
cent in wages. TO take effect November Is.
About thirty thousand hands are affected.
The cutdoyvn is attributed TO the unsettled
state Of the cotton goods trade. resulting from
the phenomenany high price Of material
and to pronounced hesitation to buy on the
part Of she usual purchasers. The action taken
In Fall River is of widespread importance, as
a step OF this nature in this city usually is fol-
lowed by mill owners in Southern and Central
Massachusetts,. Rhode Island and Eastern Con-
necticut where total of about fifty thousand
men are employed.
The unions have recognized for months that

the summer and early fall the curtailment Of
production. which was general throughout New
England, was felt more by the employees in Fall
River than in any other centre. Whether the
radical move made by the mill treasurers will
be resisted by the operatives cann.t be stated
at this time. AS news Of the cut was
announced. hurried notifications were sent to
the union officials, some of whom were in Bos-
ton attending the convention of the American
Federation Of Labor and arrangements were
perfected to call conference of the United
Textile Workers.
Although It Will be some time before the
no general strike will be ordered here at this
time, for the reason that many OF the manufact-
urers, are short OF cotton and have large stocks
Of goods on hand. which would make a strike
OF little consequence to them The news of
the reduction was particularly unwelcome to
the business men of the city, who have suffered
as well as the operatives on account OF the de-
preston, and anXiously hope that the unions
will decide to accept the reduction.
II was learned this afternoon that the reduc-
ton was decided upon at a conference of Fall
River men in Boston, November . The whole
affair was in the hands of the executive COM
mittee Of the Fail River Manufacturers As
