TROLLEY Wires

denced this morning by the fact that
a large force of workmen were out
putting up the hangers for the trolley
which will transmit the electric cur
rent from the big dynamos at the new
power station to the street cars, and
send them rushing through the streets
of the city.
From the rapid progress thus far
made in the work, it is evident that
before the week closes the trolley will
have been strung over all the lines
of the city, and everything put in
readiness for the turning one of the
current.
| The track out West Pine street and
Hardy street has been put in good
condition, the rails having been raised
and levelled, the road bed tamped, and
ballasted, and those who avail them

Two CHINAMEN
REFUSE TO PAY
PRIVILEGE TAX

George and Charley, two Celestials
who for the past several years have
conducted a laundry on West Pine
street. upon being informed by Chlet
Of Police Williams that they would
have to pay to the city a privilege
fay for the conduct of their business,
found themselves in what for the time,
anneared to be an embarrassing STU
alton. However, after the first shocK
of this intelligence had subsidized,
George and Charley got their heads
together and after having talked the
matter over, decided that they would
not pay the license, whereupon, pro
, ceilings were instituted against them
in the city court,
It appears, however, that the Chinks
we're even wiser than their counter
ance would indicate, the tax being re
ouired for a steam laundry, their con
tention being that they did not ope
rate such laundry, all their work be
ing done by hand thus placing them il
the same category, apparently, as
washer-woman.
CITY Attorney Sullivan has taken th'
matter under consideration and it i
| said will ask an opinion from tn
Attorney General Inasmuch as tn
: supreme court of other states has
: ready rendered opinions in like cases
S exempting such enterprises from tai
Y alton, it is very probable that tn
Chinks will be allowed to pursue tn

DO not dwell in the future,
Do not dream of the past
But live now, in the present,
Trusting the present will last
Today is your day to be happy
Tomorrow may never come;
Then drink of life's joys sweetest
OF the future let lips be dumb.
The castles you're building may
tumble,
The love that you trust may Wane
Then keep in the present, living
And live not this day in vain.
IT'S hard not to trust tomorrow,
Or another day that may dawn
IT'S hard to look back with sorrow
On yesterdays that have cone.
But such is life's great lessons,
Or at least 1 have found it So
And the Only way is keep trying
To make good each day as you go
