believed to have been the motive for
the murder of Charles Wiltshire, a
wealthy glove manufacturer. who was
found dead last night at the door OF

cd the arrest of two Italians for hay-

A RAGING
BLIZZARD

Raging billiards, drifting snow,
rain and sleet are scourging the east

Pittsburgers are fioundering through
snow seventeen inches deep to reach
their mills and offices, while the rail-
road and trolley lines in that section
Of Pennsylvania are badly blocked.
From all sections come reports that
the blizzard is still raging.
Four inches Of snow fell in Phila-

8 MILES OF

The city council met last night, re
Stunning work where ii was left off on
the night of February l when the
council went into recess. Mayor Rich
ardson was in the chair and all me1l-
bers were present except Messrs-
Cummins and Wiseley.
The session was opened by the
mayors announcement of his appro-
val of the bonds of the Valley Elec-
trical Company and j. NJ Bowman,
as electrical contractors. after which
the following business was had:
The committee on streets and al
leys reported unfavorably on that
portion of the mayors recent mes
sage which referred to changing the
names of certain streets in Roswell.
IL was the committees opinion that
the names remain as at present. The
report was filed.
The water and lights committee
reported unfavorably ON the matter
of giving free water for grass and
trees in parking which had been sug-
gested in the mayors message. The
matter of giving free water was con-
sidered impractical ON account of the
fact that the water used in this way
could not be accurately measured
without special meters. The commit
tee also went on record as being op-
posed to giving free water for any
purpose until the water department
gets in better financial condition dnd
stated that when the department gets
on a paying basis il would be in fav-
or of lowering the general rate that
all users might share equally in the
profits This report was filed. also.
Resolution No. 1D4 was introduced
ny Mr.. Haynes, providing for the is
sue of certificates of Indebtedness for
the water and sewer extensions in

to the water, sewer and lights con-
mittee.

tee recommended the permit. pro-
vided no well for surface water for
drinking purposes be sunk in that WI
cinity. Permit was ordered on these
terms.
The sidewalk and bridges commit
tee reported favorably on Ordinance
No. 1877, which provides for the wild
ening of Main street sidewalks. Tn
der suspension of the rules, the ordi-
nance was read in fun for the second
time and ordered published. 1t appears
elsewhere in this issue. The same
committee reported favorably on ord
nance No. I96, calling for about eight
miles of new cement sidewalk The
same action was taken as in the Main
street ordinance. The description Of
all the sidewalks can be found in the
official publication of the ordinance
elsewhere in this paper.
The committee on city affairs re-
ported unfavorahly on ordinance No.
19S. which would prohibit the child
ren from skating on the sidewalks. IL
was decided in discussion that the
intention was to limit skating to the
residence districts and consequently
the ordinance was tabled. The city
attorney was instructed to draw an
ordinance prohibiting skating in the
business districts.

 without unseemly haste. letter-writing
 becomes merely correspondence, . for nal thing of businesslike proclivities. a brief cold evidencing of necessity a curt acknowledgment that questions asked must be answered, and answer ed in the quickest possible manner, a manner that covers a niggardly space
 of paper. Not that questions should remain unanswered, nor information left for blind fate to disclose.
