DOVER, Aug. 25.-A conflict Is going
on in Dover over the order issued by
Council requiring all telegraph and
telephone companies operating in Dow
or to go underground with their wires
and conduits before the new sewer
system is completed and the work be-
gun. The Diamond State Telephone
and the Western Union Telegraph
Company have had representatives be-
fore Council, protesting. The telephone
people contended that It would cost
.,e.-- N-4---een $4,000 and $1,000 to go
underground and that they are already
operating a large and expensive CEN
tral station here at a loss of $4,000 a
year. Notwithstanding this. announce
ments are made today that the wires
will have to go underground as Coun-
ell ordered. and that these concerns are
not philanthroples and will quit the
minute they lose.

DON'T BELIEVE IN SIGNS

1.-THE deep distrust with which some
people regard signs is certainly aston
ishing." remarked a business man as he
emerged from the post Office after mail
ing special delivery letter, says the
Providence Journal
"I don't believe in some signs my
self" said his companion.
I'm talking now about plainly print
ed signs intended to direct the public"
continued the business man. "Signs like
those over the letter chutes in there.
There's one slot for city letters one for
out Of town letters. one for foreign mail
and all that. And each one Of them has
the nature of It plainly printed just
above It, where nobody could help see
ing It.
"But just now. when 7 went to mail
my letter. a man stood IN front OF the
out Of town letter chute, and as passed
he asked me-
"Ts this the place for out of town let
ters?

sign over Il without saying a word. He
thanked me- dropped his letter In and
walked off. apparently contented. A man

no more about II than he did 10 assure
him that the sign meant what It said. 7

Maybe he didn't write the letter he
was mailing. Maybe he couldn't read

"The answer TO that is that as he
walked away he took circular out Of an
envelope and did begin TO read" replied
the business man, with a discouraged

The mother asked for a third cup and

In tones so sweet and low.

And held him to my heart.

That I would from him part.
Now I feel the baby fingers,
Pressing softly on my face.
And 1 hear the little baby-coo.
That time cannot efface

That rested on his brow,

I cannot do Il now.

Upon the window-pane,
And see the little finger prints.
Upon it once again.
] think I'd kiss those little marks,
I'd never scold him now
I'd never let my baby see,
A frown upon my brow.
Well. can never press my boy.
Upon my heart again,
And nothing in this world can ease.
Its agony and pain.
But when I see my baby-boy,

And then I'll never from him part,
For I'll never say goodbye.
