OLD CEMETERY
 |S DISCUSSED
West Jefferson Street Burial Lot to Be Cleaned Up and Made to Look Better. Other Matters Before Council.

The old cemetery out on West | Jefferson street came in for a good l deal of consideration last evening at ! the meeting of the city council, es- pecially after Mrs J. H. Williams had notified the council that the place needed fixing up, th@t it ought either 1 to be attended to or have it's contents moved. She drew the attention of the council to the fact that last year. after a similar plea on her part the burial lot had been thor Cughly cleaned up. Councilman Me Eroy wanted the cemetery moved by elI means, but there were those, it | developed, who owned the lots in ! which the beloved dead are buried who object to the moving. The out come of the matter was to instruct Street Commissioner Griggs Carr to get q chain gang and go out there and clean up the cemetery. In the l meantime a special committee com posed of City Attorney Prescott w. D ONeill and Mrs. Williams will | look into the matter of moving the cemetery.
 | The next grievance was from Com missioner Griggs Carr, who stated ! that there is q hole in the sidewalk l in front Of the owl Drug store, and that complaint had been made about the matter before many times The | council acted quickly. It instructed ] City Attorney Prescott to notify Mr | Winters, the owner or the building. 1 that unless the necessary repairs are made within fifteen days, the city 1 will do it then and assess them | against the property.
 The next grievance that burst forth came in the shape of d triple from 1 no less person than the chief of 1 police. There is q difference in the | wording of the state and city auto | mobile ordinance. because of the law l passed by the legislature amending 1 the former one which agreed with the 1 city ordinance. The city attorney was | instructed to straighten out the 1 tangle.
 1 Then the matter of a cattle driving l ordinance came up, but nothing def | mite was done about it. The chief wants an ordinance passed designat- | ing on what streets the cattle may
 be driven into town. Then the Black 1 Maria, more politely called the patrol | wagon, came in for discussion. The
 chief said it is worn out inadeouate
 unserviceable, and that he needs a
 new one Councilman Cisney was
 instructed to look into the cost of | such vehicles propelled by steam. | The city attorney presented tho copy of the advertisement calling for 1 bids for the bonds: the bond eIecuon returns were canVassed and ap- proved: the salaries of the city for
 1 ester and the clerk to the street
 l commissioner were raised to begir
 January first. and the city recorder
 was instructed to have a sufficient
 number of copies of the garbage or
 dinance printed for general distribu-
 ton so that the people may know
 V hat the ordinance provides and thu,
 better observe it.

Awards will be placed for American beef at all ports except the two mentioned, those awards going to Argentina.
 Under the old high tariff laws" said Secretary Daniels. this saving could not be effected. but the recent democratic tariff bill allows the inn pOrtatiOn of foreign meats free of duty"

Glass cuttinu.

The layman who is introduced to the mysteries of cutting glass for the first time is amazed at the amount of work that the workman does entirely by his eye. The first stage of the bowl which Is to be cut finds it ia a perfectly plain condition, not a scratch upon 1t and only a half dozen or more marks in red chalk, which mean absolutely nothing to the unpracticed eye. But to the workman they mean the whole pat tern. Perhaps the dish is a salad bowl. The marks in chalk will run from the edge, five intervals apart, down to the center of the bowl at the bottom. In one of the divisions of the bowl thus marked there may be little further marking in the shape perhaps of dia- mond. This indicates the pattern into which the bowl is to be cut, and it will be repeated in each of the Ave divi- sions. All the intdcacies of the design the workman has in his head. and they develop on the glass in way which seems to the locker on absolutely mar velous.-Eew York Times.

Not His Death Warrant,

A police magistrate in Paris had queer experience not long ago which began with an interview with an hys- terical woman. She rushed into hls office, past the attendant and, inter rupting a conversation, threw a crum- pied letter on the officers desk and with pathetic gesture walled: Save him! Save himr'
 The official thought he had an in- sane person before him, but picked up the paper, which looked like letter. 1t began in letters larger than the body of the document: You must diel Nothing will save youl You must dier'
 He has always been a good man, and the little we owe we can pay at any time," the woman said between sobs, "and now there Is conspiracy against him."
 While she was protesting the magis- trate read the letter and, handing it back, said: 'Go home to your family read the rest of this letter. 1t is life insurance advertisement"
 The woman then told the magistrate she could not read, that a neighbor had read for her, and so many people were being killed, and she was so happy.

Tn 1644 the possibilities of the sub marine were first propounded, while from the very earliest times men have conceived the idea of flying with wings like birds. There Is no reason what ever ts doubt the fact that Archytas of Tarentum, about 394 years before the Christian era, constructed an au- tomaton pigeon that would fly. Turn ing to other latter day inventions, as they are generally regarded, it might be mentioned that switchback railways were constructed more than hundred years ago, and looping the loop was a sensation in Paris in 1883. while roller skating. which came up as a new in vention about forty years ago. was being indulged in by our forefathers as far back as 1929.

 It is expected that there will be no school in East Street the coming year and but one teacher will be employed at West Cornwall. Mir. Chance, who has done fine work as supervisor, goes else where and Mr. Stone takes his place in Warren and Cornwall.
 The Fourth was celebrated in fairly safe and sane way by the picnic and speaking at Grange Hall and ball game on Rumsey field between Cornwall and West Cornwall. The latter won 10 to 6, partly due to umpire, it is charged but certainly more due to poor playing of the home team-in which the second baseman distinguished himself. Some of the followers of the visiting team made it the noisiest game for long time. Charlie Swanson has his usual misfortune in being hit by the ball and laid up temporarily.
