Crosslpy, who. with his hand cart. did such good execution in keep ing Mill street presentable the year before last, is back again on the job. Is seems to be settled that the street sweeper will not be putin commission this year The expense of operating the sweeper, it Is held, is quite equal to the oost of employing two men,who are considered equal to the task of keeping the street perfectly cleau. In addition the results did not suit a majority of business men on Mill street. Too much dust accompanied the sweeper, even though the work was done at night, while in the Inter vals between sweeping days the street became very unsightly and objection able. The man, with the push cart formerly employed. It was averred, raised no dnst, and being on the job continuously kept the street clean and presentable at all times.
