LAYING WATER MAINS.
Bids were Opened and Contracts Awarded for Better Water Service.

The totals of the bids received by the board of public works for laying water mains in portions of Round Hill, South Wilson, Brewster, Vol colt, West Main streets and Tracy avenue are as follows: Testa & Zeoli, $2.4S9.76; Heating & Eagan, $2,57S.96; Edward McManus, $2,- 76O.27; Pasquale .Contaldi, $2,- 993.4
 Y For laying mains in Middle street from Market street northerly 500 feet, Market street from Baldwin street to Middle street, Ash street from Oak street to Beach street and replacing the old six-inch cement mains in Prospect and Buckingham streets, the bids figured up as fol- lows: Heating & Eagan, $1,586.60; Testa & Zeoli, $1,6S2.40; Pasquale Contaldi, s2,006.O0; Edward Mo- Manus, $2,010.50.
 The first lot goes to Heating & Eagan, and the other to Testa & Zeoli. For some reason or other there appears to be belief that the board was very much put about to know what to do with the bids. One wouldn't think so by the looks of things at the meeting. The bids were opened and read and referred to the clerk and engineer to be tabu- lated, and that was all there was to It. There was no hurry about award ing the contract, because the work cannot be taken hold of for some time yet.

THE POLICE COURT.
Unmuzzled Dogs tho Source of In.
 creasing the City's Treasury.

Unmuzzled dogs continue to be a source of income to the city, but more are killed every day in the DO. lice station than the policemen can find owners for. Half dozen fine dogs, all with collars, but minus mug zles, were dispatched yesterday in the station house, and no doubt the owners are wondering oh where, oh where, are their little dogs gone?
 Arnold Mum and Anthony Tassin- elli were landed by the police yester- day for keeping unmuzzled dogs, and they paid $5 each rather than go to court.
 Early this morning Officer Tehan happened upon James Finnegan sleeping the sleep of the tired in the rear of a saloon on South Main street. Judge Burpee imposed a fine of $5 and costs, as Finnegan is a good probationer.
 William Cardon was haled in by Officer Mclean for intoxication. He also was fined $5 and costs.

 AUGUSTA, Me, March 22.--Mrs. Al ice F. Cooper, who is being tried in the supreme court charged with the mur- der of Charles Worthy, IT,, broke down completely when for the third time since her trial began the scene of Nor thy's death was reproduced graphically for the benefit of judge and jurors.
 When Edwin Bullock, a witness for the prosecution, told with much detail of the finding of the dying man in the room and of the subsequent removal of the blood which had streamed over the floor, Mrs. Cooper was extremely agitated and later tainted from the nervous strain and the effects of the grewsome recitation.
 Much of the testimony tended to show that young Worthy and Mrs. Cooper had been often in each others company

LOVED BOTH WOMEN.
Extraordinary Bigamy of Millionaire
 Banker Riley.

NEW YORK, March 2. That Thomas W. Riley, millionaire bank president and hardware dealer of Brooklyn, has for the past three years kept two wives in separate establish ments less than half mile apart was the amazing fact that has become known here. Mir. Riley in reply to questions broke down and admitted it all. He said he had no excuse to offer save that he loved both women and that he married the second only when he felt sure his first and legal wife was about to die.
 MT. Riley, who is sixty-three years old, is president of the North Side bank of Williamsburg and is reputed to be worth several millions.
 He said that he had known Mrs. Colt from childhood and after her husband died five years ago was on close terms of friendship with her. In October, 1903, his wife was very ill when he was called to the national convention of bankers in San Francisco. Mrs. Colt accompanied n1m.
 ''She did not intend to go all the way" said MT. Riley. "When we left Brooklyn my wife was not expected to recover. On the way west told Mrs. Colt wanted to marry her. She was willing. We thought my wife would be dead before our return to Brooklyn, and was suffering from general breakdown.
 "When we reached Hammond, Ind, we were married under our true names. That marriage cannot be de. nied. We continued on to San Fran. cisco. went to the convention and then took Mrs. Colt down to Los An geles. We spent a month there and then returned east
 My wife did not die but grew some what better There was nothing we could do except keep everything secret.
