ent B. W. Vedder with ten men and
two teams started the work of build
ing rip rapps in the river at the
plant of the city water works. This
work is of a precautionary nature and

in charge of the plant for the work OF
preparing for the protection of the
plant in case of high water cannot
be started any too soon.
Superintendent Vedder believes
that the plant will be safe even with
the water at n higher stage than II
reached last spring and it is not gen.
orally believed by those acquainted
with the conditions that the river will
get as high as it was last year
The rip rapping is being done Ia
a careful and thorough manner
Some Of the entertainments that were
erected last spring are still intact but
others had to be removed owing ia
the inconvenience they caused.

Two sFrcnchmen, who had been
ordered out of the city, made some
ugly threats in the An Nations
saloon Saturday night against
Policemen Simms and Brooks. They
declared the bIuccoats could not ar

kill them any way. They certainly
did look like they had murder in
their eyes. and started out to exc
cute the threat. But the policemen
had been apprised Of the threats and
were ready for them. Each took a
Frenchman in tow. As they got
half way across the bridge one gave
battle to Brooks, but he subdued
him. The other in front Of the Wal
do suddenly grabbed Simms by the
throat but Officers White and Lewis
ran to the rescue. He again did
battle in front Of T.oclwood's but.
did not escape. Both were finally
landed in the tolls to come to their
right senses.

is by Alfred G.. Robyn. composer Of
''The Kankec Consul" snd the we'll
known ballad and concert number,
Answer 1t is entitled Nothing
New To Say" and as sung by Mr..
Emmett Gill Is sure to be hit. A

A desperate fight occurred at
Meadowbrook Saturday and the only
wonder Of ii is. that Close Laguara
was not killed. He and a fellow
eountryman, Giasa Poolinci. had
some trouble and the latter pulled .
knife and started after I,aguara.. He
cut him in eightsplaces; while none
is serious all ithe wounds are very
painful. Thtte bad cuts are the
ones on his face, temple and back 81
head, while five deep ones were found
in his back. A bloody shirt will be
a piece of evidence against the man
if he is caught. Lagnara came To
the city Sunday and swore out the
warrant but was so weak and sore
he could scarcely walk. Constable
Rogers went to Meadowbrook on an
early train but his man had left.
