 The arrangement committee of the Brooklyn Athletic club are hard at work making the necessary arrange ments for their coming promenade and carnival. which wdll be held at their rooms between the 10th and 17th of September The affair will surpass anything the club has ever given. Tn regard to attractions they will have something which has never before been seen in the city.
 A good deal of fault finding is heard on account of the conduct of some thoughtless drivers of teams who make practice of watering their horses at the small drinking fountains set up in different parts of the city These fountains were installed for the accommodation of human beings, with a small trough at the base which comes ill handy for dogs. The larger trough under the spout is used for cleaning the drinking cup and it must be plain to everybody that 1t is not right to have horses use it. The abuse is worse in Brooklyn than in any oth- CT part of the town and the residents want it stopped. The fountains are used very generally by children and the greatest care should be exercised to guard them from contamination. Somebody in authority should give this matter a little attention.
 The people along Lafayette street are complaining of the action of a number of boys that congregate on diff ferent parts of the street at all hours of the day and night. The boys are not content with insulting people who happen topass along the street, but they destroy the property of the residents. One day during the present week one family had occasion to attend a fu- neral out of town and was obliged to stay over night. Next day when they returned they found that the lock on their chicken coop had been broken and that some miscIflevious person had entered the coop and removed the eggs from under a setting hen. They also found that all kinds of refuse had been scattered about their yard and that a number of windows had been broken The parents of children should see to it that their children do not get into bad company. Here is a case ] where two or three older boys are leading the younger ones on to do these things, and if an example were made of the older boys the younger ones would probably let up on it.
