"Here." she said to Mr. Smith, "you have no furniture; my husband and 1 are going to visit friends out of town anil our house which we rent at 1308 Sadie pluce will be empty for a few months. Why not use our furni ture during our absence; why not live In our house?" Mr. Smith accepted the proposition and he and his family were soon enjoying the comforts of Mrs. Mill's home.

Richard Flynn, of Green Ridge, had his skull fractured last night in the Windsor hotel at Penn avenue and Lin den street. The fracture was caused by a bottle In the hands of Bartender John McNamara. Flynn Is at the Moses Tuylor hosidtal and at midnight the doctors at that Institution were unable to say with certainty what the result of the fracture will be. They were of the opinion, however, that it will not result fatally. Flynn entered the Windsor about 8 o'clock in an intoxicated condition, and had some trouble with the bartender to whom he applied a vile name. There are conflicting stories as to Just what occurred after that, but nt all events McNamara hit Flynn two blows with a bottle. One on the back of the head, fracturing the skull, and the other in flicting a terrible cut across the fore head, an Inch above the eyes. The latter wound bled profusely. Dr. Burnett was summoned by Pro prietor Brock, of-the Windsor, to dress the wounds, but Flynn was acting like a maniac, and refused to receive any attention. He was removed to the po lice station, where he became subdued from loss of blood and allowed his wounds to be dressed by Police Surgeon Fulton. When Dr. Fulton discovered the fracture he had Flvnn removed to the Moses Taylor hospital. McNamara left the hotel immediately after hitting Flynn, and has not sisce been seen. The police are looking for him. VERY LARGE BALLOT. One Thai Will lie I'scd in November Is to lie 22 t 20.

Three months ago councils passed a resolution directing the Judiciary com mittee to examine such claims as may be pending against the city for dam ages caused by grading and sewering, and report to councils what would in their estimation be a fair basis of set tlement in each case. The Immensity of this task and tho reluctance which the majority of the committee had against obeying the latter clause of the resolution, caused the measure to remain in the committee box, disre garded, all this time. Iist night, however, the committee held a meeting and gave the subject lengthy and thoughtful consideration. There were present Selectmen Lansing, Ross. Chittenden, Roche and Common ers Moir, Zeldler and Gilroy. The com mittee haJ before rt two statements of the damage claims, one submitted by City Solicitor Torrey.another by Ira H. Burns, attorney for all. or nearly all, of the plaintiffs. Mr. Torrey's statement, submitted in April, was as folio n-s: Cases appealed and still open- HWftlaint street $ 3,910 00 Fourth district main sewer 3,SW tiu Lini'oln uvemie 2,110 uo Oxford street j.aTft w Nortti Muln avenue 47:1 m Bromley avenue l.di't on Tenth street 4,soi mi UurtteUI avenue l,4u uo Twelfth street tyi no Alonsey avenue 3,iu mi New streft U M.I IS Cherry street licni no Hg Blreet J.tioo 0") Total 2,lu9 18 Mr. Burns' statement of the cases against the city which he was prose cuting amounted to I2S.000. A com parison of the two statements showed that inacurucles existed on one or the other, and as City Solicitor Tor rey was not present to explain mat ters it was by all deemed best to post pone action altogether until a full statement corrected up to date could be secured. Then came a discussion as to what the committee should report to coun-' ells. Messrs. Chittenden and Lansing favored taking no action whatever, and recommending to council that the mat ter be left in the hands of the city solicitor. Messrs. Roche and Gilroy be lieved in following out the full direc tions of the resolutions. The firmly rooted belief held by near ly all of the committee that a vast majority of the claims are undeserving of any consideration whatever, set them against any compromise proposition, which to their minds, would permit the bad claims, or at least a great number of them, to receive favorable consideration with the good ones, or In other words, the whole batch would be liable to be railroaded through with out any sifting. Another reason for their opposition to the compromise proposition was that it meant an Im mediate settlement, and us a delay would have a tendency to discourage what Mr. Chittenden was pleased to term "these hold ups," undue huste was to be avoided at all events. Mr. Chittenden cited the case of New street, where tho viewers had award ed $2,800. damages on a grading joli that cost only $175. Mr. Gilroy, one of the New street claimants, explained that the Job was done so cheaply be cause the filling was secured free of cost from the Asphalt company, which at that time was engaged In cutting down a knoll In front of the old cem etery on Capouse avenue.' Mr. Lansing contended that at all events New street properties had been benefited more than they had been damaged by reason of the grading, but Mr. Gilroy would not admit this by any menns. It was finally decided to refer the matter to the city solicitor : with In structions to report to councils a full list of the claims with his opinion on each' of them. Mr. Roche wanted to have the solicitor Instructed to report to the committee that it might pass upon them, but the majority favored the other motion and the report of the solicitor will consequently go to coun cils. This defeats the compromise prop osition for a time at least. FORTY HOURS' AT ST. PAUL'S. The Devotion Brought to a Close with a High Mnss Yesterday Morning.

Oh, that dream the other night, How it filled me with delight, As upon the white house steps I took my stand; There were people by the score, For the great campaign was o'er. And the president was shaking every hand. CHORUS. Tea, 'twas President McKlnley, And brave Garret Hobart, too; They had won the' noble race. Taking first and second place; And I tell you, boys, 1 guess It's coming true. II. After that, I took a walk, And by chanre 1 had a talk With a man whose name Is Mr. Oro ver C; And he told me, with a smile, It would take an awful while Just to get things back to wiiere they used to be. CHORfS. Not with President McKlnley, Nor with Garret Hobart, no! They are men of common sense, And they never stride the fence, So I tell you, Grove, I'm auie Mieyil pull us through. III. Now, says he, don't joke like that; I'm a private Democrat, But 'tis for anoiher term I play the game; And 1 mean to try once more, When this avlanche Is o'er. But, ?nys I, I guess you'll have to change your name. CHORDS. Yes, to William McKlnley, Or to Garret Hobart, true. And you'd have to mend your way The remainder of your days, Or I guess this little scheme would tum ble through. IV. Now, says he, don't be ro queer. For the folks believe, I hear, That the money for this blunder U to blame. And If that shot'ld be the case, I shall surely win the race, When the times comes 'round far me to run again. CHORfS. Not from William MrKlnley, Nor from durret Hobart, no! They are made of proper stuff. So you need not try the bluff, . For I know, dear Mr. drover, you are wiruugn.
