THE PAVING CONTRACTS

T~HE OPINION of City Attorney Gomley
 1 points very clearly to what everybody knew, that permanent pavement is a matter that comes under the jurisdiction of the Paving Commission. The paving commission was ere. ated for the very purpose of taking charge of this work, and to avoid the frequent scandals which had arisen from the control of such work by committees of the Common Council Just why the administration is so anxious to divert paving contracts from tie board to which the charter gives control of them remains to be ex- plained. Doubtless the explanation would be apparent i all the facts relating to the Warren ite contracts could be known.

thorst in later life was guardian of
the Young Duke Thurn and Taxis
Kaiser Franz Joseph offered him an
annuity of 100000 marks if he would
take charge of the property of his
ward. This was most tempting Of
fer to Windthorst, especially in view
of the fact that he had no private for
tune. After discussing the proposition
with two exiled bishops, he decided to
refuse the offer and die a poor man,
fighting for the Catholic cause.
Record of a Superior GeneraI.-Fa-

the happy event took place at the asy-
lum at Stoop, which houses some 800
