Indian Babies,

Babies cry very little in India-they obey spiritual law as flower. The lotus bud, lying on stone bench in dirty room, sucks its toe and seems dreaming of the pranks of baby Krish- na, and solving problems of the uni- verse. Asit grows older itis very timid and shy in the presence of it's elders. It feels the religious awe around it and does not break out into boisterous sport when all seems at prayer. But there is much love in India and these humble households seem very happy. They are all-in-a all to- each other and seek nothing outside either in society OF amusement. Beautiful character comes from obedience to law and not from lawlessness. In India children are the crowning gift of life. It is 8 horror to be ehildless.-Edmund Rus sell, in Everybody's Magazine.

ONLY A DOZEN TUGS TIED UP.
Strike of Marine Engineers Ia Small Sc Far.

Strike of Marine Engineers Ia Small
 Sc Far.
 PHILADELPHIA, June 3. = Tha threatened strike of marine engineers has reached quite small proportions here. only about dozen river tugs having been tied up thus far.
 A feature of the strike was the re voking of the license of striking ma rine engineer, Henry R. Truitt, by the United States local steamboat inspect ors.
 Truftt had demanded an increase of wages from the owners of the tugboat and had been notified by the owners that they could not grant the demand.
 By the requirement. of his marine en- gineer license Truitt was obliged to give three days notice of his intention to resign. It was shown that he mailed notice of his resignation on the night of May %, but that the following day being a holiday and the next day thereafter being Sunday no mails were delivered to the owners on those days. Early Monday morning Truitt while in the engine room of the boat refused to obey the orders of the master of the vessel, saying he would not do so un- less be received the increase demand ed
 The inspectors decided that Truitt had not given the owners the three days notice required and that by re- fusing to work his engine while on duty had clearly violated the require ments of his license, to which he had

Entire Garrison of Agram Called
 Out to QuelI Mob.
 VIENNA, June 3.--The entire garri- son of Agran, Croatia, which has been in disturbed state for some time past, was called out to clear the streets of rioters. The trouble was started by the refusal of small crowd to dis perse. The police thereupon fired ill the air as a signal that they required re-enforcements, and the people, mis- understanding the action of the police, bombarded them with stones.
 The police then attacked the crowd with drawn sabers, number of per sons being injured, and about POO peo- pie were arrested. The mob later was re-enforced and started window smash. ing. Finally all the troops in the city were ordered to take part in quelling the disturbance, and the streets were eventually cleared and cordoned with soldiers.

BOARD or PUBLIC WORKS
Cherry Avenue Owners Will Be Cited In on June g.


 Cherry Avenue Owners Will Be Cited Tn on June 9.
 At the meeting of the board of pub lie works yesterday afternoon it was voted to cite in property owners on Cherry avenue on June 9 to be heard relative to la ying sewer in that street. The board recomm ended that the water main in the Watertown road be ex- tended TOO feet on condition that pri- vate parties extend it from that point to the Bunker Hill school and that w. F. Jarrett turn over his water system at MOrningside to the city. The plan is to pay back to the Watertown people the cost of construction the year after the receipts show a net profit of 10 per cent on the money invested, A request from Mrs Johanna Condon for the re- moval of a tree in front of her property on Green street was referred to a conn- mittee consisting of Commissioners Mahaney and Blakeslee and Super1n- tendent Kelley with power to act.
 The matter of purchasing the Mitch ell property on Benedict street was re- ferred to a committee consisting of the mayor and the city attorney. All the other applications referred to the board by the aldermen were placed on the list for investigation. M O. Kelly in- quired how to proceed regarding a per- init for the removal of a mouse from Hayden street to Calvin street. He was told to submit a statement setting forth the present location of building, where he wants to move it to, the size of the structure, the streets it would have to pass through. the name of the mover and how long the building would be on the public streets.
 The board did not deem it wise to do anything at the present time regarding the petition for a sixty-foot street from Sunnyside avenue to Bank street, the opinion being general that it was much better if it go at a uniform width of fifty feet for the entire length, and the other can come later on if 1t should be deemed advisable The petition of Michael Stocci for bootblack's license at SAP South Main street was referred to the obstruction committee.
 Tn answer to a question from Mayor Kflduff, Superintendent O'Brien stated that the East Mountain and Prospect reservoirs are full. but the Branch is down about twenty inches. He also stated that he had visited some of the houses on the thigh ground in the north end and learned that the pressure is much better now than 1t was couple of months ago. Commissioner Whit ing said he knew this to be true be- cause a man who could get no water in H1le spring had informed him during the present week that the pressure is alL right now. This is a phenomena that has never been explained. It seems the less water there is in the Branch the better service people get in all parts of the town. When water was rolling over the dam people were complaining of the poor pressure, but now that 1t has dropped nearly cou- pie of feet everybody is getting good service. This may look strange, but it is so all the same.
 The board adjourned until 80 o'clock Monday afternoon, when an outing will be held,

BOARD or PUBLIC SAFETY
Joseph J. Wall Elected to Position on
 Permanent Fire Force.


 Permanent Fire Force.
 The meeting of the board of safety last evening was very brief and the business transacted of minor impor- tanee. Mayor Ktlduff presided. Tim othy Griffin of Hook and Ladder com pany No 2 was reported absent from duty for several days without leave and was dismissed from the service. Some days ago he informed Chlet Snagg that he was tired of the service and was going to California. The chief informed him of the rules to" conn ply with in such case, but he did not carry them out. He gave up the city's property which he had in his possession and quit. Joseph J. Wall, who filed an application at the last meeting oE the board, was elected to the permanent Ire force.
 Charles McEvoy of Captain Dodds's company applied to be appointed to captaincy in the fire department Ills application was filed.
 Captain Dodds reported Callman Fred c. Kilibourn absent from duty
 Instructions were given Chief Egan to see that the police keep sharp eye out for the new drinking fountains OF
 
 ported from the board of works that the public have not been dealing fairly with these fountains and that several indications of attempts to steal them have been discovered Chief Snagg was informed to see that the fremen get their regular summer ice. It will be well for the fremen to remember that no cream goes with this ice. The ice Is taken straight.
 Commis sioners Lahey and Reeves ] were selected a committee to inquire into the hours of police service neces- sary in che district of Waterville, the pet suburb of the board of aldermen The board then retired to executive ses- sion and appointed Commissioners Hardie and each committee to devise means to arrange for an alarm call for the police. It appears that in other places a general alarm can be sent out that will assemble all the police in a few moments in case of general dfs- turbance, and the idea is to devise something on that line. The night or Che trolley riot 1t took some time to get all the police on duty.

Of this amount the state as appropriated one thousand dollars and the voluntary subscriptions from New Haven people and interested parties throughout the state have reached fif- teen and fifty dollars. The total more than covers the bare cost of the monu- ment, but there are incidental expenses I@ be met, which will necessitate the procdrfrg. of twenty-five hundred dol- g lars more.
 Included in these Incidental expenses will be the cost of compiling and pub l fishing the regiments history. Thomas Hamilton Murray, of Boston, an author and Journalist, and the secretary of the lrish-American Historical society, has been secured to write the history or the regiment.

BEATS ALL WESTERN MEN
Senator Fulton Given Better Com-
mittee Assignments Than Any
Other First-Term Man.

A dispatch from Washington to
Tuesdays Oregonian says: "With
out exception Senator Fulton has
been given better committee assign
ments than any Senator who is
now entering upon his first term,
and it is a matter ofsome comment
that he, as new man, is far better
placed on committees than a num-
Der of Representatives who are now
beginning their second term in
Congress. From the standpoint Of
Western Senator, Mr.. Fulton has
secured everything that could be
desired, and would be we'll placed
were this his second and not his
first Congress. To begin with, he
is made chairman on Canadian re-
lations, and is a member of public
lands, irrigation, fisheries, claims
and revision Of the laws committees.
The Importance of the committees
on public lands and irrigation need
not be explained. On claims, a
very active COMMITTEES, the Senator
can place many Of his colleagues
under obligations, and on fisheries
he can look after Columbia River
interests to marked degree. His
Craftsmanship gave him a COM
mittee-room in the terrace, and
carries with it the appointment Of
committee clerk. His room ad-
joins that Of Senator Mitchell.
Senator Mitchell retains his chair
manship of coast defenses, and his
membership on the committees Of
postoffices and post roads, inter-
oceanic canals, Pacific islands and
Porto Rico, and in addition is made
a member Of the judiciary COM
mittee and committee on relations
with Cuba.
Senator Foster and Senator
Ankeny are placed as stated in
these dispatches two days ago, save
that Ankeny goes on coast defenses
instead Of Oh fisheries, and is made
a member of railroads. Foster
goes on commerce and is chairman
of the committee on geological sur
vey, while Ankeny is chairman Of
the committee on coast and insular
surveys.
Senator Hepburn, like most new
Senators, is given a long list of
committee assignments, but none
that are Of particular Importance.
He is made chairman of the com
mittee on manufactures, and has
membership on the committees Of
coast defense, geological survey,
mines and mining, public health
and National quarantine, revision
of the laws and investigation of
trespassing upon Indian lands.
