DISASTROUS litigation ENDED.

For several yeas past the city authori-
ties of Havre de Grace and the water
company of that city have been in per-
petual litigation With each other about
their respective rights and duties. At
present there ale six suits docketed
against the watercompany, and large
unadjusted account remains due the
water company from that city. The
main issues at stake have been charges
of impure water, lack of water, lack of
mains, lack Of pressure. Recently a COM
mittee was appointed on behalf of the
CITY Council which has succeeded in en-
tering into an agreement now accepted
by the council and about to be executed
by the proper authorities, in virtue OF
which all suits are withdrawn. each side
to pay its own :osts, and the bill of the
water board is rduced nearly 500. We
congratulate GU city by the sea that its
energies in the future may all be directed
toward the legitimate upbuilding OF
their beautiful ity instead of pushing
these suits to tial.

FIRST PRIZES AWARDED.

Much interest has been aroused
throughout the schools of Baltimore

borhood, and how and why they do it. !"
Eighty-one stories were submitted to a
committee consisting of three experts

the province of Ontario, eighty miles
northwest of Buffalo, and is actively en-
gagged in manufacturing, $500 OF the
population being so engaged. While the
weather is frequently severe, the Their
mometer ranging around 20 degrees be-

cause of its dryness; this year, however,

The residents of Denmore Park one
of the suburban developments surround |
ing Baltimore, are attempting by in
junction proceedings to prevent the cree
ton of small double houses on lots |
purchased of the corporation where a |
provision of the deed requires single |
houses of not less than a standard value. |
While steps tending to restrain the owner |
of a property in its development accord |
ing to his own wishes are not generally |
desirable, in cases of this sort it seems to |
be entirely timely, otherwise ones home |
for lite time may be almost |
conhscated by the introduction of abso- |
lutelv unsa tisfactory neighbors. This
habit of promiscuous building is especial |
lY common in the south; many Of our |
outhern towns which now absorb nearly |
all of the white population are erecting |
attractive homes but they are frequently |
sand WICKED in between the huts of |
negroes, which to the casual observer
would make them very Objectionable.
