opened when the board Eext meets in

In the last issue, in its remarks upon
the Grand avenue macadam, the Pilot
published hearsay, to the effect that
there was friction on the city board of
public works, and that for long time
its members had not been on speaking
terms. This we are informed is not so !;
that while its members have held hon.
est differences of opinion and these
have been earnestly discussed at their
meetings, there has been no bitterness
engendered and, hence, no truth in the
report. The PILOT gladly makes the
correction.
The coolest night of the fall was on
Wednesday last, when the government
thermometer on the court house grounds
registered degrees above zero. On
Friday there was decided change.
The day was quite spring like, the same
thermometer registering Al above.
Paul Hahnheiser, the furrier, takes
pride in telling that he has seldom failed
to properly forecast winter He
bases his deductions on the thickness
of the fur on the hides and pelts brought
to him. When they are thin mild
winter usually follows. If the fur is
heavy, reverse conditions prevail. This
fall. he says, every hide which has been
brought to his shop has been unusually
thin, and he therefore predicts an open
winter. This will be sad news for the
wood and coal dealers.
