TAxrcAB TRICKS.

With two ordinances introduced
before the aldermen to-day calling
for a square deal from the treacher-

have at last tackled one Of the worst
pests that has descended upon Man

and limb in these noisy, malodorous
conveyances New Workers have long
objected to paying the face value OF
their erratic clock dials. Slippery
asphalt utilized by equally slippery
chauffeurs has been found to accom-
plish marvels in miles Of recorded
but untraveled distance. Other tricks
Of the taxi trade are to be searched

population can have their will upon
