From thirty to forty-five feet is now con- sidered better limits. “The trimming of trees is a bone of con- tention among avthorities as to time, man- ner and extent.

Herrmann, comm: of waterworks of Cincinnati, Ohio. Mr. Herrmann’s paper was submitted by him as chairman of the committee on x> ation and assessment. He considered in It systems of tion in all cities of the coun- try of over 80,00) population, excepting this sioner city, which, he stated, he om: be f the laws governing its mana, t ere so different from those of other cities that he did not believe an inteiligent compari- son could have been made.

M. L. Holman of St. Louis, Mo., chair- man of the committee on water works and water supply, spoke upon systems of wa- ter supplies and advocated more complete control of sources of these supplies by the accura haracter bi Good Appetite, perfect digestion and sound, refresh- ing sleep follow the use of Johann Hoff's Malt Extract. Introduced in 1847, it has for over half a century heid the reputation of the world’s greatest tonic.

I consider it the best nutritive tonic and table beverage I know of.” The genuine Johann Hoff’s Malt Extract has stood the test of time.

The secretary of the society circulated printed copies of a report of the committee on electric street lighting, prepared by F. W.

The president appointed the following committee to no teXpfficers for the en- suing year: Augu: Trmann of Cincin- nati, A. D, Thompson of Peoria, Ill.; M. R. Shepard of Newark, N. J.; George H.

Brookman of Milwaukee, Wis.; Charles F. Herr of Newark, N. J.; N. P. Lewis of Brooklyn and M. I. Holman of St. Louis. Mr. Phillips’ Paper. After The Star’s report closed yesterday afternoon Mr. Asa E.Phillips, assistant engineer of the sewer department of this city, read a paper entitled “Some Observa- tions on the Effect of Plushing Devices for Small Sewers.” He had charts for the in- spection of the members illustrating the sewer system in a part of the northwest portion of the city. The paper was a tech- nical one, dealing with the system of flush- ing sewers. It showed great labor and ability in its preparation. —— WISE MOVES, Weak Clubs of the League to Be Strengthened. President Watkins of the Pittsburg Base Ball Club said yesterday that the coming league meeting would be an important one. ‘The great questions will be the strengthen- ing of the weak teams and the trouble at St. Louis. Something will have to be done. to make the New York club stronger. Mr. Watkins said: “We have lost thousands of dollars in that city this season by the poor showing of the team there. There will be en effort made to make the team a money- maker. How this will be done I cannot say now. It seems to me the Cleveland club will remain where it is and that there may be a few prominent payers transferred to St. Louis. There are no indic tions of any other city coming into the league to take the place of Cleveland.” OT BALL. LOCAL Gallaadet’s Eleven Defeats the C. HL S. Team. The foot ball team of Gallaudet College defeated the Central High School team on the gridiron at Kendall Green yesterday afternoon by 11 to 0. Gallaudet had a slight advantage in weight over the Central team, but the game was well contested through- out. In the first half Andree made a fit- teen-yard run, scoring a touchdown, from which Bumgardner kicked goal. In the second half Rosson was carried over the line for a touchdown, Bumgardner failing to kick goal. Gallaudet played several sub: stitutes in the places of good men who were injured in the Georgetown game. The teams lined up as follows: Cc. Ho. 8. Positions. Sherwood ...
