people say that dogs are a nuisance and should be exterminated. We'll, maybe that is true, but when we see dogs in every part of the city start to bow-wow, h-ki, and woo-woo ev- cry time a "cop" or two hove in sight we begin to think that dogs know a little bit after all. But when people train their dogs to bark . look at "cop," that's carrying che joke too far. And why?-be- cause anyone wishing to keep tabs Un the bluecoats on Sunday could easily buy one of these dogs or teach one themselves. We'll, this keeping "aabs" on the "cops" is beginning to die out; the human race is becom. ing more enlightened every day, Pretty soon that beverage which lots O. people sell on the sly will be thing of the past The public gen orally are opening their eyes and see that tea, coffee and cocoa are the only drinks to be used, particularly on account of the benefits they de- rive from them.

ly settles the discussion as to whether
or not there is sufficient water for tie

it is cleaned out is 12O inches which is
admitted by all to be an abundance for
all purposes.
The contract with Mr.. Littlejohn was
executed and his surety bond for s12,-

Littlejohn put large force of men at
work on the ditch yesterday and the
work will be pushed with all possible

demnation proceedings will likely be
begun to secure title across that place.
After transacting some business with
reference to the new sewers which are

roll top desk, which had been purchas-
ed for his use, the council adjourned to

He is ex- pected to arrive in New York next Saturday and on Sunday will speak in the Fifth avenue Presbyterian church, after which he will go to Northtield, where he will be the speaker at the general conference of Christian worx- CTS from August to 19, and at the post conference addresses which are given throughout September.

 Framed
 Announcement is made by the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad company, in. the form of a bulletin, that the engine drivers who are to re- place engineers when the electric sys- tenn is inaugurated between New York and Stamford September 1, will be paid $3,60 per day for ten hours work. The helpers will receive $2 per day for the same number of hours. The overtime work will be paid for at the same rate. In view of the fact that the trend of the times seems to be toward elec- l trifcation of the entire system in the future, the chief topic of conversation among railroad men who will be af- fected by the change is the wage scale as proposed by the company The scale as fixed by the new order is consider ably less than the engineers and fire. men are receiving at the present time although it is claimed that the worl will be less severe.
 Present locomotive engineers on tht New York division will be given th' preference in becoming electrical driv CTS, and the firemen will be allowed tc become their helpers. If the position are not filled in the required time, thei conductors, baggagemen and brake men will be allowed to take them.
 A piece of track at Rye, N. r., ha been fitted up, and is in operation fo the purpose of giving the men in struction in the operation of the cleo tric trains, but no pay will be give lwhile the men are thus learning tn work.
