DOG TAGS ARRIVED
YESTERDAY MORNING

The dog tags ordered by the county
commissioners q week or so ago arriv-
ed at the court house yesterday mo rn-
ing and all is now in readiness to en-
force the new dog law.
The tags are of brass and are num-
bered from up to 1900. On the bits
of brass are imprinted; Montour
County, the number of the tag and
the words, DOG tax for 1907. ."
The tags will be distributed among
the tax collectors, who will furnish
them to the owners of dogs on the
payment of dog tax. Any dog found
without tag will naturally be taken
for one that has escaped being as
sessed-certainly as one for which no
tax has been paid. If the law is car
ried out such dog will pay the pen
atty of its owners neglect with its
life.
Those whose dogs have been missed
by the assessor should call upon the
tax collector, explain matters and by
paying on the dog secure a tag. which
is the only thing that will save the
canine from slaughter.

EAST
MARKET STREET

During the past week or ten days
the street commissioner has had
force of men at work scraping East
Market street and hauling the ground
that accumulates to different parts of
town, where it is used in filing up
low places.
The section of East Market street
to be scraped lies between Honeymoon
street and Mill street. The work tax
ing in the south half of the street is
pretty we'll completed and about a
the scraping, have been hauled away.
The enormous quantity of ground
removed conveys some idea of the
depth of mud that lay on the street at
times. The scraping of the street re-
moves the mud as factor in the
future but it leaves the bottom uneven
and stony.
1t is very clear that the street will
not be improved much for general
traffic unless a course of crushed stone
properly coated with screenings is
placed on the street where the loose
earth has been removed This, of
course, would imply that the street on
each side of the trolley track should
receive the same treatment

OIL|NC Up THE
Weather VANE

Edward Sainsbury, who has the CON
tract for painting the roof of the court
house along with other public work
was putting the finishing touches on
the cupola of the temple of Justice
yesterday.
He gave the dome a coat of paint
and while he was about it overhauled
the weather vane, which for some
years has been suspected of not being
overly accurate in Indicating the di
reotion of the wind. 1t was observed
that while the wind blew out of the
south and the rain was pouring in tor
rents the weather vane on the court
house stood pointing unalterably IN
direction that indicated fair weather.
Under exceptionally high winds it is
true, the vane changed its position
slightly at times, but it seldom han
pened that it indicated anything like
the right direction of the wind for
two days in succession.
The theory was that the vane owing
to the action of rust or other cause
had ceased to move freely on its up
right axis. In effect this was pre-
clsely the cause. Mr.. Sainsbury found
an accumulation of scale on the nm
right rod nearly one-sixteenth of an
inch thick, which interfered with the
movement of the vane. He removed
the scale and oiled up the mechanism
as piece of gratuitous work, which
he believed the public would highly
appreciate The weather vane will
no doubt repay the slight attention
by henceforth indicating the direction
of the wind with unfailing accuracy.
