beautiful sheet of water. Heie fioin
June 1. until tiie chill of October, ho
forgets about the city's strife, and he
looses himself In the pleasures of en

occasion of enjoyment. The dinner
was an excellently served repast and
the hotel management received a
shower of praise fiom the guests.

of harmony shown that cannot but be
a factor in the success of his admin
istration. From the opening speech of
Mayor O'Nell, himself, who was toast

DAY OF WIND AND RAIN.
An Instalment of Weather That
Wns Greatly Disliked.
Yesterday was a day of wind and
lain that seemed somewhat out of
nhti'o to be sandwiched among the days
of April. The rain wus enough like
April, but tho wind was as wild and
surly as a day In March.
Tho sheets were all but deserted
during the day, and those who did
have to go out had to battle with reso
lution against the wind that carried
them with u mist of rain. The blow
was responsible for many a broken
flintier and muny a root lost shin
gles throughout tho city.
The wind came near to causing a
dlhriPtroui accident. The boaids which
enclosed tho front of the new 'Mc
Andrew building, on South Main street,
wijio torn off and blown onto tho
street, just as a passerby, Richard Ma
lone, went by. Tho boards lauded be
hind wlili a crash, missing hhu by a
few ieet.

It is true tliut many contract slight

and a knowledge of tills fact leads

It should be borne In mind thut every
cold weakens Mha lungs, lowers the
vitality and makes the system less ublQ

WILL TAKE A REST.
Miss Florence Wright, Superintend
ent of Emergency Hospital, Goes
to Canada to Recuperate.
Miss Florence Wright, supeiintend
ent of Emergency hospital, who has so
far recovered from her recent severe ill
ness as to be able to take an active in
terest in the work of the hospital, has
decided to take a rest, and will leave
on Friday for her Canadian home,
where she will spend some time in re
cuperating. Miss Wright goes to Mount Forest,
Canada, and will be absent for two
months or longer, if she deems it pru
dent to extend the rest period. It was
Miss Wright's heroic devotion to the
arduous duties of superintending the
hospital that so reduced her condition
of health that for a time it was feared
she might not rally. It will be assur
ing and cheerful news, therefore, to the
numerous persons who have become
her friends through coming in contact
with her at the hospital, that she has
decided upon this soiely needed period
of relaxation and recuperation. The
best wishes that she may return in
vigorous health will accompany her.
During Miss Wright's absence, the
acting superintendent will be Miss
Williamson, of Philadelphia, a gradu
ate of the training school of Blockiey
hospital, Philadelphia, who is well
qualified for the position.

The work of Installing and connect

expedition, but as there lias been an
exceptional demand for telephones, nnd
ns there Is considerable work connected

set ibers who are anxious for service
be indulgent for a little while until the
necessary readjustments, reconstruc

With the new section of switchboaid
In place, there will be accommodations
for one hundred additional 'phones,

four hundred. Already there are enough
