In the mean time. William Kennedy is at the helm i and everything is moving along with i out a hitch. The scramble for the office of super 1 intendent of the water works is now on for fair and will not be over un- til Tuesday night, unless Mayor
 Thoms sends Constable Lunny after | the commissioners again. There are | more candidates for the position than you can shake stick at. and as only
 one can get there it is easy to see that
 whole lot of people will be disap-
 pointed when the result is announced
 Mayor w .E. Thoms. City Attorney
 John P. Kellogg. City Engineer R. A. Cairns and John F.. Sewell, held a con ference this morning and talked over the trolley situation in general and
 Robbins street in particular. Whether the proposed Town Plot line was men, toned or not. nobody on the outside knows, but it is surmised that Mayor Tholms improved the opportunity to ask Mir Sewell what the chances were | of getting trolley service into that dis l trict in the near future. The ground
 was gone over thoroughly and propo- sitions made on both sides. hut noth-
 ing definite was reached. The trolley
 people are not any more generous now than ever and from all accounts they will have to do something decent towards the city. if they want their
 plans approved without making a fight in the courts.
 James P. Morris, superintendent
 of the town poor, and John H. Lougn- lin, janitor of the City hall building were standing on the steps leading to the building this morning, ex-
 changing opinions regarding the kind of weather the German societies are likely to have for their big parade to-
 morrow, and hoping that 1t would be fine, when they were startled by 2 bang in the steps behind them and looking around they noticed piece of granite that had fallen from the
 top of the building and was smashed against the big step. Both men
 turned pale at how near they came
 to being killed, and it is safe to say
 that if the parade was coming down
 the street they wouldn't have waited
 there to see it. The broken piece
 was about half a pound weight and came down with sufficient force to
 kill one if it had hit him on the head.
