Several of the oil trains, of ttie Free land Tank line, are the most reliable for making schedule time that we know of.

As the council had al ready made amicable arrangements with all of the parties except one, it was de cided to take the matter up on Wednes cvening. P. M. Boyle, borough surveyor, stated that lie would have to look over the map and profiles of the streets before under taking any work at present, and promis ed to attend to the matter as soon as possible. 11. E. Sweeny spoke of having a peti tion which he intended to circulate among the business men, with a view of ascertaining how many of them would take the electric light, and asked the members of the council to study the matter over and find out whether they would adopt the light for the borough.

Before the Supreme Court.
