It is said that Mr. Kellar asks the council to grant him the gas fran- chise and he will go to work on the plant at once and not wait for the election on electric light. In short Mr. K. hopes to have the gas plant in by the time he is ready to start the electric light. This is just what our people want, and the city coun cil should grant the franchise at its next meeting and let the work begin at once.—Record. | On the Ist of August the time be-| tween sunrise and sunset was forty | minutes shorter than it was on July | 1, and forty two minutes shorter | than on June 21.

The rising | and setting points of the sun are | moving slowly and steadily towards | the south, and thus the duration of | the luminary’s stay above the hori- zon is gradually being lessened.
