1t is understood that there is 4
probability of Il new city clock to re-
place the one which has done duty for
a long while on the steeple of the Win
throp street Baptist church. The
present timepiece is somewhat worn
out from lengthy and faithful service,
and something will have to be done n
the way of establishing Il reliable time
keeper. either in repairing the present
clock or installing a new one. The
committee on clocks and bells held a
meeting last week, and looked the old
clock over. and at the meeting of the
city council Monday evening. not being
able to present a great deal in the
way of a report. was given more time.
A letter has been received from a Bos-
ton firm of clock makers, which recon-
mends the purchase of a new clock.
inasmuch as the cost of repairing the
old one. because of the probability that
the patterns of the different parts have
been destroyed would be nearly as
much as that Of new clock. and that
after the new parts had been supplied
and the repairs made. the clock wOusd
still be an old one. What will event
ualiy be done remains to be seen.
