 The Brooklyn and Town Plot Inn provement committee will appear be- fore the board of aldermen this even ing in regard to the matter of issuing of bonds for the carrying out of inn fs xx-hi.h lIx,, ,,on IA.J Ia, this city at present. The committee has been working in this thing for some time and will explain their plans fully this evening. In regard to appointing some new men to the com mittee this is the work for the peo- pie themselves. As the committee was selected at a mass meeting it will be necessary to call mass meeting to enlarge the same. Although the names of two prominent Town Plot people were suggested at the last ses- sion still neither the chair nor the members had any power to act in making the men member of the com- mittee.
 The employees of the Hellmann Brewing company are becoming ex- pert fishermen. yesterday several of them accompanied by friends went to the shore and all day tried their luck with the saltwater inhabitants. In the party were Abe Cast, George Reichenbach. Fritz Mutter, Earnest Ziezler, Andrew Frederick, George Thomas. Henry Hellmann, Adolph Blelanger and Louis Wenzel Flat fish was caught mostly and some of the men got good hauls. But last night when any of the fellows was asked what luck the crowd had he would reply In an nonchalant manner. "They were not biting well to-day, we only caught about 1.5O0 pounds between us. Of course you know that's not much considering the number in the bunch and the ease with which you can catch flat fish," What do you think of it?
 "A one act performance called by some comedy and others a tragedy was that which took place yesterday afternoon in the vicinity of the gas house, in which colored man was the receiving end for the missiles and punches. Some "kid" struck the colored gentleman's dog with stone. The native of Africa did not tafle kindly to the treatment which his canine was receiving and when the cur was again scelped. he chased the urchin and gave him a beating. Immediately about fifty of de gang got after the black man and they hurled at him everything they could lay their hands on. So he thought that it was better to say there he goes" than 'here he lies" so kept on running. But part of the crowd had circled around the fugitive and he was caught between two fires. Neefless to say when peace again rei9ned the fellow was sorry looking sight. He had many sore spots on his body and was minus couple of teeth.
