 -.Johnnie'' Howard, who was in jured about ten days ago while play ing football, is improving rapidly at the hospital.
 John Luddy, of Charles street, who has been working in Bristol. has returned to his home. He intends to go to work in this city. The employees of the Boston Bridge company are hustling the work of the Porter street bridge, but have as yet made little progress on the Bank street structure. The tenants and storekeepers in Wards Flats are once more throw ing waste papers and decayed fruit into the streets. The condition of the pavement the past few days is scandalous and needs attention badly.
 Some members of the Third
 Ward Republican club are rather sore because of the manner in which things are being carried on and sev- eral of them threaten to withdraw after the present fight in the third district is over. Many of the Brook lyn members who last year were so active in the primaries are not lifting
 a finger in the present fight between
 the club and Judge Peasley. Although a meeting of the Brooklyn and Town Plot Improve
 ment committee was scheduled for last evening, 1t seemed very few of the members appeared and no busi-
 ness was transacted. Chairman John Henderson was unable to at tend as he had some very important work to attend to. MT Henderson said this morning that he heard
 nothing about the meeting, as so pressing was his business that he
 could not get away from it. In all probability the interest in the organ
 ization will begin to pick up soon
 again with the coming of the .cool
 weather as during the summer a
 very few care to attend meetings.
 The persons residing in the vi-
 cinity of Bank and South Riverside
 streets will undoubtedly think that
 the board of aldermen is doing a wise
 thing when it passes an ordinance
 compelling the owners of dogs to
 keep them tied up at all times, or at
 any rate not to allow them to roam
 around the streets at will. This
 morning at the corner of the above
 named streets there were about ten
 brutes and they were making a rum-
 pus that could be heard block
 away. Talk about barking and snarl- ing, there was SO much of 1t that
 the people who had to listen to 1t
 were almost sorry that they ever saw a cur. After the canines had ex-
 hausted all their wind they scamp
 cred in several directions.
