Self-Satisfed Expression Of
Tabby Never Changes.
Made of Lines in Marble.

Have you seen the Postoffice cat? It's
n large black and yellow tabby with the
self-satisfied thought somewhat con-
spicuous expression of pussy who has
just purloined the pet canary, and is at
loss to know how to hide the feathers.
incidentally. pussy appears to have one
ear cooked for sounds of trouble, while
the other member implies a desire to
hear strains of song from another
tempting morsel OF birdfiesh.
Why this constant expression, you
ask? Because pussy, ever thus alert,
sits day in and day out to the right OF
the door leading into the office of
Granville Hunt, chief Of the registration
division. But II isn't in the corner, but
on the wall, in the large slab OF Ten
nessee marble which forms part of the

Is about four feet high. and by one of
the freaks which Mother Nature Is con-

server.
Just when the advent of pussy was
first noticed nobody In the department
seems to know. When asked, Mr.. Hunt

vouch for the fact that II was there, and
very much in evidence at that.

The Town Water Supply.

There is an an oninouS lack of
news as to the remedial measures
the Water Company was to forth
with adopt, in furnishing the
town with pure, unpolluted drink
ing water.
Does the company think, the
summer being past and the com
plants having lessened, that the
town will lapse into a state of
coma and allow present condi-
tions to continue until an epidern-
ic forces action. ?
It is still hoped that the pro-
fessions made were, sincere, and
that steps are really being taken
to rectify present abuses.
The paramount duty Of our
town authorities is to see that
before another season comes we
can assure summer visiters-to
say nothing of the residents Of
Charles Town safe and album
dant water supply, even if the.
Town has to tackle the PROPOSE
ton itself.
The Supreme Court of Appeals
has just decided in the case of
White VS.. the Town of Romnev
that outlying springs can be con-
demned for the use of a munich
pality, so that difficulty is re-
moved so far as Charles Towns
sources of supply are concerned.
In this connection it isintereSt-
ing to note that here IN West
Virginia, the town of Clarksburg
which owns its own water works,
pays all salaries, repairs and adj
ditionS to the system, provides
sinking fund of So, 900. year
and has cash balance of over
SIT 900. in the hands of their
City Treasurer, and only charges
its citizens one-third the water
rates charged by the privately
OwRed Water Works of Charleston,
to the citizens of the Capital
City.
This illustration will help to
convince any fair minded man.
that every town should own and
control its own water supply.
This will happen to Charles Town
sooner or later. How soon de-
Ponds on the apathy of the Water
Company or its performance Of |
its duty to the public.
