chance to hand over the sewer con-
tract and bonds. He is to be present
at the boards meeting this afternoon

to the clerk mandamus proceedings
will at once be instituted against him.
When called up over the phone this
morning by the clerk and told that he
would be given a chance of return
ing them this afternoon or taking the
consequences, Max replied that pos
sibly he would be present and he might
deliver the papers, but 1t did not make
any material differences whether he
did or not" Attorney Markham. the
village attorney. will be present this
afternoon at the meeting and being
no personal friend of Maks will try
to compel him to deliver the papers
and according to one of the members
statement this will only make Max
seem all the more Indifferent about the
matter and he will probably refuse to
hand them over.
The work on the sewerage system is
supposed to begin the 18th of this
month, but the board of local i'm
| pTON6ncnlS say tHdL contractor tdealey
will be notified not to begin until the
board can see the contract and see
what it calls for.
An interesting time is looked for at
the meeting this afternoon which Will
begin at 2:3O.
The $500 that has been misappro-
priated from the West Hammond
treasury has not been accounted for
and the books will be overhauled the
first of next week and the expert is

WOULD RESTORE GUILLoTINE.

Ihere is reason 10 pelleVo tnHs tne
guillotipe may again make its sppear-
ance in France for the carrying out Of
capital punishment. The High Court
ia Paris yesterday denied the appeal
made by Soleillant, who was condemned
10 death in that city last month Tor the
atrocious murder of little child.
President Fallieres alone can now
save the man. There is considerable
element of the French public which
favors the restoration OF the guillotine in
the csse of Soeillant on account OF the
atrccity of hs crime, and it ia believed,
moreover, that the use Of this instrument
could check the wave of brutal assault
which lately has swept over the country.
NJ. Lepine, the project of police,
already is arranging to erect a guillotine
in 8 secluded spot. 1t has been dis
covered that the budget provides an ap-
preparation for capital execution.
