Tte contrast is great, bui oi;re is some con solation in the fact that the mines started working again this morning and the operations will be continued tomorrow.? Speaker Walton and Hon. Harry Huhn were to have paid our town a visit today, but. we were deprived ot the honor of their presence by a change in the pro gram. They were to have come here to visit the mines, especially the one, In which Mr. Huhn was interested some years ago with Hon. 'M. P. Fowler. Both gentlemen would have been cordially greeted and it 1b regretted they did not come. it would require the services of an extra clerk to record all the complaints that are made to the HERALD about vicious dons Tunning at large in spite of the orders issued by the Borough Coun cil. Nothing can be done so long as the ofllclals persist in Ignoring orders and the superior authorities fall to call these ofllclals to account. People outside of the Borough Council have been telling the High Constable what they think is hi duty, and what is not, and he, very good naturedly, has given way tc their views. It is about time that something- be done to ascertain whether orders from Council can be supplanted by views of those who are not In authority. The orders of Council are that the High Con stable shall prevent animals from roam ing at large and enforce the ordinance re quiring the muzzling of dogs. No atten tion has been paid to either direction. It is hoped the High Constable will see the wisdom of abiding by the ordinances and wishes of Council and cause an abate ment In the daily complaints.

The pyramid was ot an old gold tint, but tho hair upon which It was built was black, slightly silvered. As none of the silver threads mingled with the gold, the inference Is that the wearer hung her store hair on the back of a chair and bleached it, but forgot to dye that which clung to her scalp. Such forget- fulness as this on the part of an up-to- date woman is inexcusable. Perhaps it was an aone on purpoie in oraer 10 at tract attention. Lobster salad at the Schelfly House.

A careful survey of the field leadsato the conclusion that the appointment lr&ne of the most remote matters In the minds of majority of tho Councllmen at nrptipnt. tlmn ami criiPflHPR bv (tomnnf th to when It will be made varft on time from tne comlug summer to next spring. It seems to be the senti ment ot the Council, or at least most of its members, that it will be tin e to appoint the superintendent after all the pipe lines are tested and connections are made, although some incline to the belief that it would be well to have the superintendent on duty when the property owners make connection with the mains, so that he can give his entire time to it and see that the connections are made iu accordance with the ordinance. Others believe that this work should be super vised by the water committee and that the works can get along without a superintendent until the water is at the people's doors. A decision on this point will Jepend on whether the committee men can devote suflblent time to make up in work what a delay In the appointment ot the superintendent would save In salary. Talk has been revived on the action of Council in deciding that the cost- of making connections with the mains shall be sustained by the property owners, it Is claimed tnat this action Is In direct violation of promises made to the people and that it was a promise that the borough would have the con nectlons made' that induced many people to favor the second Increase of the indebtedness. It is claimed further that to leave the connections to the option of the property owners will cause an Irregularity of "work that will keep the'.st reets and pavements open for an Indefinite period, whereas If the borough made the connections the work could be done by streets and completed without making repeated openings. But one thing is certain, and that is this : the borough Is not in financial condition to make the connections at its own expense, Indeed.lt will be fortunate it the Borough Council pulls through this year with the expense of conducting the works. It will take no small amount of financiering and perhaps, considerable docking here and there to accomplish this. Meanwhile candidates for the ofllce of superintendent of water works and their friends should take the course ot events with composure holding themselves in readiness for the appointment this summer, and yet not be come disappointed if the plum does not drop until next spring. Delicious pepper pot will be served as a free lunch at the Schelfly House tomorrow night. Nlswenter's Horses Arrive.
