Elizabeth Forced by Deceased ItO-
dents 10 Remodel City Hall.
ELIZABETH, Apr. 13.-Because
Of the presence of rats. which at times
have almost pat the city department
out of business, a number of changes
are to be made in the city hall. When
the building was erected in 1865, part
OF the ground floor was set off for a
market, and ever since has been oc-
cupied by butchers. The butcher
shops, as usual. attracted rats, and
large families OF these were raised
in the building.
When q rat died in the walls the
cfluvia vas such Il cause much COM
plant from the city's employees. The
board Of health tried w~ainscoting and
tar paper, but these were of little
aveil, and %creosote has been used re-
Gently.
IT has been decided now to do away
with the butcher shops. and changes
are 10 be made which, it is expected,
will cost about $1,000.
