R0UNDsMEN MUST
ALL GO ON DUTY
T0URWTHsQUAD

AT a, conference. Of the members Of
the, Police Board, Chief iCorbitt was
directed to prepare and issue "a new
tour of duty governing the police work
of the roundsmen. 10
Heretofore there has been no definite
rule in the department as to when
roundsmen left their respective pre-
cincts with their squads. This caused
comment from those .~rourdsn1en who
believed others of their rank were be-
ing favored. The, fault-finding came to
the ears of the Police Board and after
a general discussion it was decided to
have each roundsman given charge of a
squad, and he will have to leave the
precinct with his squad and remain in
the streets while his squad is doing
duty.
The commission decided that Captain

GOLDFISH.
Tho Proper Way to Care For These
Pretty Household Pets.

Goldfish are the cleanest and least
troublesome Of pets. A quart Of
water to a fish is sufficient. A me-
dunn sized globe will accommodate
four fish and, containing some shells
and growing plant, which can be
bought of the fish fancier, makes a
very pretty ornament for the room.
The water must be changed about
once a week in cool and twice in
hot weather. With a cup | gently
! dip out the fish, one at time, and
put them in a bowl of fresh water,
which I have tried with my fingers
to be sure it is of the same tempeTa-
ture. They can stand cold better
than heat. Then the globe and
shells must be secured and the plant
rinsed.
After the shells and plant have
been returned and the globe reflled |
the fish can be put back the same |
as taken out, and they show their
appreciation Of being at home |
again. | have fed mine once a day |
for nearly a year on oat flakes,
about two to a fish, and they -four
ish on their diet. They soon learn
to come to the top and accept food
from my fingers. They should be
fed nothing else, except fish food,
as meat and bread are apt to sour
the water. If when cleaning the
globe | find particles of food among
the shells, I do not feed them quite
50 much. They must not have more {
than they will eat, as it makes the
water cloudy. The intelligence they
manifest seems wonderful to me.
One usually rules the "globe,"

Turtles Ruin Vines.

cone Of our colonists," SAYS an
Algiers paper, recently noticed
that his vines had been gnawed
around the roots, and, resolving to
ascertain the cause, he went at
night into the vineyard and soon
heard a noise which was so strange
that for a moment he thought it
was OF supernatural origin.
Having lighted a lamp, however,
he discovered that it was made by
an army of turtles, which was slow
ly making its way from the river to
the vineyard. The mystery was now
solved, for the turtles no sooner en-
tered the vineyard than they began
to rayage the vines. Summonine
some laborers, the owner finally
succeeded in getting rid of the tur-
lies, but in order to guard against
assaults he was Obliged to

And the losses Of those who let

soon get to know their customers.
On one point nearly all the hirers
insist, no matter how humble they
may be, and that is that the teapot
shall be a snowy and substantial
looking one, and, for the sake of
the quality Of the brew, it is sad to
relate That metal teapOts are gen
