test at Bangor, Maine, broke all
former records. The trial was made un-
derfayorable conditions, the test mile
being at the rate of 1914 miles an
hour. The average of the best runs
heretofore over the course is 1875,
which shows the Virginia to be the
fleetest by a fraction over three
fourths of a mile. The Virginia was
constructed at Newport News.

 Thomas Dolan, president of the com pany, has forwarded formal letter to the presidents of the select and com mon branches of the city councils with drawing his proposition to advance the city S25,OO0.G0O in consideration of the extension of the lease which the com pany now holds. This action was talk en after protracted conference with Commissioner Durham, State Senator McNichol and Select Councilman Charles Seger, who presented the gas lease resolutions in the councils.
 The withdrawal of the United Gas Improvement company's offer is sig nal victory for Mayor Weaver in his fight with the organization" though it does not mean the end of the bat tie. The injunction proceeding brought by David Smyth. former director of public safety, and Peter E. Costello, former director of public works, against Mayor Weaver and their sue cessors. Colonel Sheldon Potter and A. Lincoln Acker, to restrain the mayors appointees from conducting the affairs of the two departments is still to come up for argument. and the leaders will make determined effort to have the temporary injunction made permanent.
 Since last Tuesday. when the mayor created the first sensation by busting Smyth and Costello. directors. and ap- pointing their successors great pressure has been brought to bear upon the councilmen by both sides. and the ''or- ganization" leaders have steadily main tained confidence in their ability to have the gas lease passed over the mayors veto.
 Popular opposition became so pro nounced that one by one members of the councils who originally voted for the lease began to show disposition to accede to the wishes of their con stituents. and many said that they would vote against the measure.

The Profitable Hog.

Do not use any hogs for breeding pur- poses except those that show evidence in form, disposition and breed. of in- clination to early maturity. Hogs are raised only for their flesh. and the fewer days it takes pig to accumulate enough to be of marketable size. the more profit able it will be for its owner.
