Reports to Come to the Bur. gesses at the Meeting on
 Monday.

Affairs in the borough government are rather quiet just now but 1t is expected that there will be a revival ere long. At the next meeting, the first Friday in February, the board of bur gesses expect to get report from the collector and treasurer as to how the borough stands. If there is sufficient surplus, the board will see if it cannot buy watering cart.
 Last year, which was the first sea- son of street watering in the borough" |" said Burgess Harry Leigh of the com mittee on street sprinkling last night, i've hired watering cart and got very good service, but this year we wish to own our own cart If there is money enough to buy one. I am going to write and get some figures as to the cost. Last month our board paid a $l000 note on which the borough had paid interest for thirty years In addi- tion to all that, we have put in three new hydrants and three gas lamps, for street lighting. If 1t hadn't been for all these extras we could have run the borough on four mill tax; this year the tax Is five mills. Another thing l would like to see done while I am in the borough government and that is to sell our heavy chemical truck That truck is almost too heavy for two horses and certainly Is too heavy for fn trtn l,.at tr is a jumper for the chemical and a hose wagon for the hose. As it is now, that truck is altogether too heavy"
