Mr. Bell, of tho Jtoads and Highways com
mitteo, stated that Mr. Pollard, of Ashland,
refused to suporviso tho work In connection
with tho First ward clock. Mr. Hell also
read a letter from Mr. lUIrd, of tho Thomas
Coal Company, stating that yesterday tho
company had an engineer roview the pro
posed work and his report had been referred
to tho company's chief engineer, Mr. II. S.
Thompson. As the matter stands with Mr.
Thompson's report, tho company could nut
o iicyoiid its original tironos itlon. namelv :
to pay $300 towards tho expense.
Upon motion of Mr. Lally it was decided
lat, if Council does not uet a definite rcnlv
from tho company within three davs. tho

An application from Joseph A. Couuhlin
for tho position at tho same salary paid Mr.
ijawson was on ttio secretary's table.
Mr. James moved that tho firo apparatus
commltteo be instructed to secure bids for
tho position. Tho motion was defeated.
Ou motion of Mr. Lally tho rosicnation of
Mr. Lawson was accepted and a vote of
thanks was tendered to the latter for his scr-
ico during tho past two years.
Mr. Hell moved that Mr. Couuhlin be
elected electrician. Mr. James protested
that it was a pieco of rallrcadlntr and Coun
cil should follow its custom and get bids for
tho position. Ho remarked that It was
strango that Mr. Coughlin's application
should come in at the same timo with Mr.
Lawson's resignation. Mr. Murphy said
Council was notified at tho last meeting that
Mr. Lawson intended to resign. The motion
was finally carried.
In tho caso of Mrs. O'Brien, who claims
damages for injuries alleged to have been
sustained through a defective pavement ou
W est Coal street, tho law committee said it
had discovered additional evidence. Borough
Solicitor Burke stated that tho ovidenco
directly controverted that produced by Mrs,
U lirlcn and ho would not advise Council to
settle tho claim.
Tho Borough Solicitor also stated that the
bondsmen on Tax Collector Scanlan's bond
for 189 1 had procured a rulo to show causo on
the borough why the judgmeut outored on
tho bond should not bo satisfied, and that ho
expected to take testimony in tho caso oarly

mittee, said the contract for tho police over

each. All other bids were above that amount.
A complaint that the electric light at tho
corner of Catherine and Coal streets was in
terfered with by trees was referred to the

Upon application of Mr. Lally, tho usoof
lockup and firo alarm koys was granted to
Watchman Anthony Alex.
On motion of Mr. Boll tho construction
committee was instructed to get separate bids
for tho painting of tho roof aud sides of the
borough building.
When a report from the water committee
was called for Mr. Bell stated that the supply
of tho public works was still low. Ho also
stated that tho materials for the connection
woro expectod to-day and tho work would
proceed as soon as they arrived.
Borough Solicitor Iluiko thon asked per
mission to speak as a citizen and taxpayer and
said ; "I would llko to know whothor, when
this connection is made, tho people of the
town aro to bo furni3bod with water from
tho old plant during the time the borough
plant is unablo to furnish it, or whether the
borough is going on as it is now, without
wator for tho greator part of tho 21 hours ?"
Mr. Keiswentor said ho visited the reser
voir at Branilonvlllo on Wednesday and, he
tlmiiplir. tli.it if all tho water there was
pumped to tho town It could be used In an
hour. He then movoa mat, wnon the con
nection with tho old plant is made, tho
chairman of tho water committeo turn on
tlio wator from that plant for 21 hours, pro
viding there is a scarcity of water iu the
borough plant; and at tho end of tho 24
hours tlio borough plant bo drawn upon
again; aud, should it givo out, tho old plant
bo drawn ou, etc.
Mr. Hell was opposed to tills motion. He
favored a suspension of tho borough plant for
five or six days at a time to givo tho resor
loirs time to fill up. In tho meantime tho
tiros at tho pumping Btatiou could bo bauked
and left in charge of tho fireman, aud tho
borough could savo tho wages of tho ougi
ncers wlillo the old plant was furnishing
water.
Mr. James protested that tho plan would
not be feasible, as tho borough could not
oxpect to hold tho services of good engineers
by laying them off without pay ovory time
tho wator ran low. ile said thero was a
scheme on foot to cither mako places for now
engineers, or to destroy what tho Council had
decldod upon, to gel a proper supply of water,
Solicitor Burko again aroso. Ho said ho
was speaking as a citizen, and did not wish
to Infriugo on tho privileges of the Council
men. as such, and he didn't give a conti
nontal reservoir what schemes they might
or might not havo. "I don't know whether
you have any, or not," ho continued, "but if
I, as a citizen of this town, am going to bo
subjected to tho whims of this Council as 1
havo been, I will have my connection with

ings Issued the following proclamation
last night:
"The people of Pennsylvania, to
frether with their fellow citizens
throughout the land, have groat causa
at this time for rejoicing1 nnd thanksgiving-.
A foreign power, by the bar
barous and Inhuman treatment ot Its
own subjects, had shocked the civilized
world. The American people reached
the point where they would no longer
permlJiumanlty to bj so cruelly out
raged almost under the shndow of their
own flap.
"In the struggle which followed God's
guiding hand was abundantly mani
fested. The people answered as one
man to the country's call. Our army
and navy executed with unparalleled
valor the wilt of tho nation. Our vic
tories by sea and on land were signal
triumphs for civilization and free gov
ernment. "Pennsylvania's surviving1 soldiers
have returned to their homes, bringing
renewed proofs of their devotion to the
flag1. Where opportunity came they
won the laurels always coveted by the
American soldier, and where oppor
tunity came not their devotion and
steadfastness was deserving1 of equal
praise.
"The people of the commonwealth, in
accordance with tho sentiment of the
hour, desiring1 to mako public manifes
tation of their appreciation of the ser
vices and sacrifices of thoso who so
nobly sustained the nation's honor, will
hold in the city of Philadelphia on the
26th and 27th days of October a peace
Jubilee, and it has been deemed meet
and proper that one of the aforesaid
days be set apart as a day of thanks
giving and prayer.
"Now, therefore, I, Daniel II. Hast
ings, governor of the said common
wealth, do set apart Thursday, the 27th
day of October, as a special iiiy of
Thanksgiving and prayer to Almighty
God."

THE MAN
WITH THE HAAIHERI
The man who wields the hammer
with the most flourish and makes the
most noise isn't always the one who
drives the most nails. His nails
may be bent, his hammer poor, and
when the day's work is done he'll be
behind. We drive bargains, not
nails, but our stock is up in quality.
The blows of our hammer are
accurate nnd regular. We are mak
ing a winning record every day in
our GROCERY line.
