ports having laid out lines for 80 build
ings as against 60 for July Among the

for large buildings which bring the
cost of ooerations for that month up
to a much higher figure than for Au-
gust.
The rainfall amounted to 4.37 inches.
During July 6.S1 inches of rain fell, so
that it can readily be seen despite the
fact thatit appeared to rain almost the
entire month that the rainfall was
greater in July than August, although
it does not appear so.
The police made BAL arrests, which
number is smaller than made in July.
In that month s52 violators of the law

boys. were arraigned on a charge of
disorderly conduct The youngsters,
according to Patrolman Penson, have

lowed. The court imposed a fine Of
SO and costs on each.

the larceny as bailee Of suit OF
clothes from Henry West, also colored
w(s discharged on a tecnicality. He

asked that his client be dismissed on
the grounds that the prosecution had
failed to prove the jurisdiction of the
court as to the place where the offence
had been committed. The court enter
tanned his motion and dismissed the
case. West testified that he gave the
prisoner a suit of clothes to take home
for him and that was the last he saw
of the suit. Assistant City Solicitor

to prove that the offence had been
committed in this city and county and
on these grounds the defendant was
