visit the glimpses Of the moon, n try,
as in the old days, to discern the
stretches of the Thames river, she would
behold nothing but factory chimneys
and the gaunt sides of grain elevators.
Many pretty fables are connected with
the castle. 1t is said that Anne-when
Henry first began paying her his court
and before his divorce from Catherine
of Aragon-was wont to spend hours
on the top of the battlements shown in
the accompanying photograph. 1t is
even said that from these very escarp-
ments she could signal with her hand
kerchief to her royal lover as he came
up the river in his state barge. 1t was
here that Anne is said. to have spent
some of the happiest days of her life;
brief though they were. After her
coronation, the unhappy queen, as the
world knows, was acquainted only with
misery. 1t is because of this happy as
sociation of the ancient castle with Anne
Boleyn that the people of East Ham
who still retain the appreciative sense
and especially those of antiquarian
persuasions-wish to have the castle
purchased for the public and turned into
"A museum and library. Within recent
years the castle has been used as a
Roman Catholic industrial school, but
the authorities have just taken the
buildings and they are to he sold. Ample
grounds surround Boleyn castle and,
were it not for the'squalid neighborhood,
with its b~lighted acidifed %verdure, the
fumes of sulphur and the'odor of gas, no
one of a%ristocratic prOclivities could
wish for a more castle-like abode. En-
vironment has, however, settled the
question of private purchase; and prob
ably, If the castle is knocked down to
the highest bidder, its site will Undergo
a brick-and-mortar transformation
into workmen's cottages, such as adorn
nearly all suburban real estate.

TO REORGAN|zE TONIGHT
MEETING AT HIGH SCHOOL
Alumni Association viii Take on New
Life and Arrange to Banquet the
Class of 1D6-Meetins During Gen.
tennial Week.

A meeting of the high school alumni
will be held tonight in the chapel at
the high school. The purpose of the
meeting is to reorganize the alumni
association and make arrangements
for banqueting the graduating class at
the school this year. 1t is probable
that the banquet this year will be in
the form of dance to be held in one
of the down town halls.
Neither the class of 1904 or 1905
were banqueted by the alumni and it
is desired to make the association a
permanent organization and the ban
quets annual affairs. Fred Cennett
has been actively engaged in reorgan-
izing the alumni, and it is probable
that he will be made president of the
new association.
This being Centennial year it is
likely that a meeting of the alumni
will be held during the Centennial Gel
ebration. This will not interfere,
however, with the banquet that is to
be given for the class of 1906. 1t is
desired that as many of the alumni as
can attend be present at the meeting
tonight.

THERE WILL BE FEWER THAN

Last night ended the heaviest tax
paying seasons ever known in this
county and one of the busiest days of
the season at the County Treasurer
Office. The total amount collected
yesterday, was in excess of S12,500
and came in principally in small
amounts, ranging from 81 to $500
Most of the heavy tax payers settled
their accounts with the county before
the last day and only the smaller ac'
counts were left. Nearly thousand
receipts were given out during the
day.
The amount taken in yesterday
swells the total amount collected dur
ing the past two months to overs S325,
900, the largest sum of monelsi ever
paid into the office of the Wayne
County Treasurer in one installment
The fall taxes are now due, but the
spring installment that has not beer
paid is delinquent and ten per cent
penalty is added.
County Treasurer Myrick stated
last evening that the number of delin
quents is not as large this year as usu
al There are always a few who dc
not realize that tax paying time is up
on them until it is over, and Others
who live in other cities, neglect TO re
NIT their money. There will proba
bly, be large number of people at the
treasurer's office this morning, anx
ious to pay, but the penalty will be
added, as 1t is required by law.

OVERHEAD WIRES
DESTINED To co
Council Decides That All Wires
MIST Be Underground in
Five Years.
} CITY MAY BUILD DUCTS
NEW COUNCIL TAKES UP LIVE
QUESTION AND PROMISES To-
DISPOSE OF 1T AT AN EARLY
DATE.

The conduit matter was the most
important measure up before the first
meeting of the new Council last evn-
ing, and decisive action was taken
by that body, practically insuring that
within five years, every overhead
wire and every pole except those
used to support trolley wires, on
Main Street, will be removed, and
will be in a specially constructed
conduit or conduits, built either by
the respective companies or by the
city. That point has not been decided
upon, but the wires are to go under
ground and from the tone of the
speeches on the subject, they will
all be in conduit owned and operat-
ed by the city, if the city is financial
ly able to build the proposed system.
If not, the Council seems to be a fa-
vor of allowing the Central Union
Company to proceed with it's improve
ment and construct it's private con-
duit system.
Charles Report Reread.
The report of City Engineer Charles
was reread for the benefit of the new
members, and it was followed by a
talk by District Superintendent ]. W.
Stickney, of the Central Union Tele-
phone Company, who spoke on the
plans of his company. Mr.. Stickney
stated that his company was ready to
get to work at once and if the city
did not want to build a conduit, he
would like to be granted permission
whereby his company could proceed
in installing its own private system.
He wants to build between 18th and
4th streets, and if there are objec-
tions to tearing up Main street. the
first alley north of Main will answer
the purpose. He named several OBJ
jections to a Municipal conduit sys-
tenn, speaking of the danger in put
ting high and low tension wires in
the same trench and of the resulting
confusion with all the companies u.s.
ing the same manholes. He stated
that his company was ready to help,
however, if the city wished a NUM-
cipal system.
Councilman O'NeaIs Motion.
Following Mr.. Stcikney's talk,
Councilman O'Neal made a motion
that each company in the city, now
operating overhead high or low ten
sion wires, be required to make use
of a conduit within five years. This
motion was seconded by Mr.. Engle-
bert. Councilman Leftwick then
made an amendment to the motion,
asking that such action be made sub
iect to the report from the Board of
Public Works, to be made at the next
meeting This amendment was ac-
cepted and the motion passed.
Mayor Zimmerman put in a few
words in favor of his plan, that of
municipal ownership of the conduits.

Council Moves Cautiously in
West Second Street Via
duct Matter.
TO PROVIDE FOR FUTURE
IF ANY ELECTRIC LINE WANTS
TO USE STREET UNDER VIA
DUCT 1T MUST PAY CITY AND
PAN HANDLE COMPANY.

AS result of the action of Council
last evening, in refusing OF sign the
agreement submitted by the Rich
mond Street e. Interurban Railway, in
regard to the use of West Second
Street, 1t is probable that the con-
struction of the viaduct beneath the
tracks of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Lines will be deferrd for weeks, and
maybe for months. The members of
Council objected to part of the
agreement, or rather to a part that
was lacking, and until this is supplied,
the paper will not be signed
AS the matter stands now the Rich
mond Street & Interurban Company
has agreed to waive it's rights to the
use of West Second street, between
Chestnut and State, If the city builds
a viaduct beneath the tracks of the
Pennsylvania Lines. The city must
also agree that the agreement is null
and void, If the right to use the street
Is ever granted to any other electric
railway. The Pennsylvania railroad
company agrees to pay 60 per cent of
the cost of construction of the via
duct of the use of the street Is denied
the city interurban lines. TIL question
that is brought up is in regard to the
future, when some traction company
may ask to come into the city, and
make use of the viaducts beneath the
lie nj iy
Why Council Holds Back.
If the city council ever grants an
other company the right to use the
street, it is feared the Pennsylvania
will make claim against the city of
the amount it expended in the con.
structon of the ;iaduct, or GO per cent.
of the cost. The plan is to make any
company that ever desires to use the
street and the viaduct, pay the cost
OF the viaduct to the city and to the
railroad; 60 per cent to the railroad
and 40 per cent to the city. AS 1t is
now, IL the city granted the right to
the use of the street to any electric
line in the future, the city would have
to pay the railroad the 90 per cent
which that company spent in the con-
struction. The point is raised to
guard against mistakes which may be
made by Councils in the future.
In order to obtain for the city a
share of this money which will be paid
over should the right to use the street
ever be given to an electric line, an
agreement will be made between the
city and the Pennsylvania railroad be.
fore the paper is finally signed. The
matter was referred to the City Attor.
ney and the Board of Public Works
for settlement with the railroad.
