BOROUGH FATHERS
WILL DECORATE

Our Borough Fathers have caught
the Fourth of July spirit and although
they can not see their way clear 10 en-
ter upon an electrical display for In
dependence Day, yet they have deCid
ed to decorate City Hall in grand style
A special meeting of Council was
held Saturday night, at which two
proposals were read from decorators.
One of these was from John II. Ban
CERT. who proposed to decorate City
Hall from the roof to the first floor
with fast colors, flags and bunting, for
the sum of $40. The other was from
J. II. Hemmerly x Company, who pro-
posed to decorate the building for Sl5.
On motion it was decided TO decor
ate City Hall something after the man
ner above proposed but it was left
in the hands of the Building Commit
tee to wait upon the decorators and
look over designs so as to get the best
effects for the money.

and in body went to a street to look
over the ground with reference to the
new pavement grade furnished by the
Borough Engineer. At s 30 they re-
turned to Council Chamber when on
motion of Mr.. Vastine it was agreed
to adopt the new grade for pavement
II l..
burg Street Railway Company sign an
agreement relating to the matter. On
motion the Secretary was instructed
to notify the officers of the Trolley
Company of Councils action.
Burgess Purscl was present at the
meeting and called Council S attention
to the rank growth of weeds on the
river bank, recommending that the
Street Commissioner be instructed to
have them cut down.
On motion the garbage cans, which
arrived OH Thursday, wera accepted
and ordered placed about the streets.
One of the cans was ordered placei at
the post office; the distribution of the
remainder was left i'll the hands of the
Street Commiss: oner
Council made it very plain that its
object III placing the cans upon the
street is to secure the enforcement of
the recently enacted law, which makes
it unlawful to throw papers, rubbish,
banana peels, or fruit in any form up
on the streets. Council believes that
through the medium of the Morning
News, which has fully explained the
act, the people are by this time pretty
familiar With the new law and the in
tention is to enforce it, it was clear
ly stated that persons who persist in
throwing artioios upon tuo street WIN
be ARE ted and mulcted in fine.
This brought up the subject of mar
ket aud it was the sense of some of the
members that the farmers leave be-
hind altogether too much waste matter
in the form of cabbage leaves and the
like TO be hauled away at the Bor
ough's expense. Mr.. Vastine SAID the
farmers should be obliged to load all
such stuff upon their wagons and take
il along home. He made motion that
farmers who refuse to comply should
be arrested and made t. pay fine.
The motion carried.
The following members of Council
were present at the meeting: Gibson,
Vastine. Sweisfort, Hughes,
Msgill. Boyer, Dietz. Goeser and ia
cobs.

Thew Want rIore Cans.

The rubbish cans recently purchased
by Council were installed upon the
street by E. S. Miller yesterday. The
Street Commissioner was under no
special orders as to placing the cans
but merely used his Judgment in the
matter. The galvanized receptacles
seem to be placed at about the proper
intervals ana help to give our busy
and neatly paved street thoroughly
up-to. date appearance.
Here and there a dWeller along the
street seems to have wrong idea of
the use of the cans; they complai Ii
that the receptaoles are too far away
from their residences and altogether
seem to be under the impression that
the cans are designed to take care Of
all the waste and rubbish that ac-
cumulates about the dwellings or stores
whereas the fact is that the receptacles
are intended only for floating papers
and other trash in the hands of per
sons moving about the street. stores
aud dwellings will be obliged to take
care of their own rubbish.
The misconception rs to the use of
tho cans has given rise to the view
that the dozen installed are not su fiji
cient and that Council should purchase
another dozen cans The appearance
of tho street would be spoiled if a
larger number were installed. While
1t is no doubt fact that "a larger mum
Der would he made good use of 1t Is
also true that one dozen will prove
sufficient The cans on Mill street are
distributed in about the same proper
tion as in Bloomsbury, where the ex-
pertinent has been on trial for some
time past and found to accomplish the
object very nicely.
