 The business at the sub-station in Walkers has been fully as good the past year December excepted) as for 1906. The books for the last month of the year have not been fig ured up as yet, but it is thought that they will show the business for De- cember, 1906, was somewhat ahead of the corresponding month of 1907.
 Alderman Thomas B. Walker, who during the past two years was also commissioner of the board of public works, is of the opinion that the personnel of the new board will be almost the same as it now is. He says that he thinks all the commis- sioners would like to be re-appointed as they took an interest in the work of the board.
 --"Jawn" Carroll has not as yet located the thief who stole two fine turkeys from his cellar on South Leonard street one evening last week. Carroll had them ready for the oven, but some one relieved him of the bother of cooking them. It is evi- dent that the persons who made the turkey round up last week pilfered some rather good birds and from all accounts must have made of VI more than half a dozen.

FINED s1OO AND COSTS
Officers Brought Five Hacks 10
 Scene of Raid.

The premises of Martin Dalton near the new St Joseph's cemetery were raided by the police last night about II o'clock and eleven persons besides the alleged proprietor were arrested, This morning in the city court Dalton was charged with keep ing disreputable house and acting as his own counsel he filed a type written demurrer on general princi- pies, claiming that the allegations of the complaint were not sufficient to consist of an offense. The demurrer was overruled and then Dalton came near being let off.
 Judge Peasley held there should be some evidence and he asked Assistant Prosecuting Attorney McGrath to put on witness. This caused a brief argument between the officials of the court as to the method of procedure in the case. Finally, however, it was admitted that the practice in the city court was to impose fine with out hearing any evidence when de- murrer was filed and this was ac- cordingly done. A fine of $100 and costs was imposed and an appeal un- der bail of $200 was taken
 The parties found in the house gave their names as Jennie Frost, Alice and May Brown, Hattie Minard, Nellie Henderson, Beatrice Sullivan, Ida Hall, Frederick Brown, James Shea, Thomas Wallace and George Ashley The women were charged with being residents of the house and each of them settled for $15, while the men were charged with being frequenters and settled for $7. The raiding party was under the direc- tion of Sergeant Pagan and the off, cers were Tehan, J. R. Mccarthy, Grady, Callahan and Brickel.
 When the officers surrounded the house there was no attempt made to escape on the part of those inside. The visit did not seem to excite any commotion of an unusual character, or what might be expected under the circumstances. Five hacks, consti- tuting for the time being the police patrol, took the raiders to the. scene of action and brought back those who were taken into custody.

ADMIRED HIS WOOD
Motormah Came 10 Grief When Il Mysterlously Disappeared.

William or Bill Grady is motor man on the West Main street trolley line. A week ago his pocketbook felt rather plethoric and, having nc faith in weather reports or weather prophets he decided to invest some of his money in fuel for winter. In a few days a huge pile loomed up in his backyard on Ann street and 1t was the admiration of the surround ing neighborhood. There was no colored man in this wood pile and that may have been why 1t was so admired by folks around. Yet var ious colored folks were heard to ex- press admiration of the said pile and one or two were rather loud in their remarks about the price of coal. But then that, perhaps, is another story.
 Everyday when William Grady, motOrman, would drive his car past the vicinity of Ann street the top of his wood pile peered above the hori- zon like the huge brow of an inquisi- tive giant. On an occasional day Grady would take a day off and spend it saving wood and the more he sawed the more the brow of the giant seemed to peer above the hori- zon.
 The other day as he was driving past, he saw no wooden brow in sight and at the same time though it did not occur to him until after wards, he heard some one on the platform near him remark on the fine quality 70 that ere wood pile."
 To make an otherwise long story short, next morning when Grady got up he found that more than half of his wood pile had disappeared and now he is firmly convinced that there was a "nigger in it" after all and that the colored man he had heard make certain remarks on the platform of his car the day before could give a very enlightening explanation of it's mysterious disappearance if he chose.
