fair In charge. It Is estimate 1 by the
managers that over live hund-ed peo
ple attended.

success of the tea Is a great compli
ment to tho young women In elia'-g

were Instructed to wait on the mayor,
street commissioner and councllmen
from the Twenty-first ward to learn
what can bo done towards repairing
It. The farmers who look after the
townships roads ' offered to put the
thoroughfare In first-class condition
for $350 from the tollgate down to
Jackson street, but members of the
councils wanted to expend the money
themselves nnd the result wns that
nothing has been done In tho matter.
Efforts have been made to obtain
special appropriations for the repairs,
but without success, and unless some
thing Is done before the frost sets In
tho city might ns well close the road
to traffic.

by the Delaware, Lackawanna and

pointment of nn Industrial commis
