S§ & A Traction Co a sum that will nearly wipe out this amount Then the village has during the past year. purchased two sprink- ling carts at a cost of $700 that are permanent additions So when the sums due the village are paid. there really was no falling behind on the year's business The following apropriations for the coming year were recommended Lights, $4000, hydrants $2600. for streets $5,060, police $2,220 fire de- partment $400. police justice $500; clerk $200; assessors $250 printing and stationery $200. board of health $400; fuel and care of public build- ings $500.

Large Crowd Allended The Founder of the Society Was Present and Re- spouded to a Toast. Waverly—The annual bandet of the Baraca bible class at the Bap- tist church last evening was a great success. There were 108 who sat down to a most excellent spread that had been prepared by the ladies of the church As the party took their places at the table the invocation was offered by the Rev. Alanson Tilden The Rev. G. A Briggs acted as toast- master. Fred Appelgate, editor of the Waverly Free Press responded to a toast and was in amost happy mood that communicated itself to all pres- ent The principal toast was given by Marshall A Hudson of Syracuse the founder of the society. He gave a very interesting account of the founding of the Baraca that was tsart ed In Syracuse in 1880 with IS mem- bers, and has now extended itself to include over 200000 CAN YOTE FOR THREE TRUSTEES WHATEVER THEIR POSITION. That Two. Names Are Opposite on Hal. lot Does Not Preclude Voting for Both. Waverly—There seems to be some dissappointment among some of the voters because the names of E E Walker, Democratic nominee for trus- tee has been placed opposite to that of Dr LL. S Betowski, the Republi- can nominee They express them- selves as desiring to vote for both of these candidates, and their dissap- pointment arises from the fact that they have the impression that because of the position that theli names occu- py oun the ballot that they cannot vote for both. This is not true in any sense. A voter has the right to mark three of the names on the ballot with- out regard to whether they are placed opposite each other or nol. The three candidates receiving the highest num- ber of votes are the ones elected and this would be true even if they were their respective columns 8 TICKET HAS SUFFICIENT SIGNERS. CITIZEN'S Announced This Morning That More Than the Requisite Number Had Been Required. Waverly—It was announced this morning by the attorney who had the paper containing the names of the Citizen's ticket candidates that more than enough names had been seceur- ed to place the names of the candi- dates on the ballot. The petition was filed very quickkly, and seems to indl- cate that there are a number of people in Waverly who are opposed to tak- ing over the water works, and that they mean It strongly enough to pledge themselves to stand by a tick- et that has been placed In the fleld by that faction Gave Whiskey te Boy. Waverly-——A young Negro, Was ar- rested last Mogday night for being drunk He Is only 13 years of age, and the source of his supply was fn- vestigated. It was found that a man many years his senjor had procured three pints of whiskey, and Induced the boy to drink a quantity of it. The boy's record was looked into, and as it was found that he had been be- having himself very well for some time he was discharged. The man who caured him to get drunk has kept out of Waverly since the thing occurred Arrested for Non-Support.

The huge auditorium was never before called upon to hold so large a throng as that which wished to honor one of the most consummate artistes and | grandest women of the age Madame of America and the same spirit ani- | mating the country at large as did New York, her appearance is taking the form of a testimonial In every city she visits.
