The railway companies objecting to having the motor line cross their tracks insist that if the line does cross, the motor folks should agree to pay for flagmen at every crossing. The railway companies ave wonderfully anxious about the public safety, and are ready to consent that the motor company should bear all the expense, while the rail road companies assuine the irksome task of appointing the men and bossing them, There has been a good deal of alarm caused by thus attracting public attention to the neeessity of having flagmen at all the crossings, and now the railway companics will probably be called upon by the city council to employ flagmen at all the street crossings where their tracks are. 'There is o network of railway tracks already here, and the companies should cor- tatnly be compelled to flagmen stationed at every one oy these crossings, whether the motor line ever turns a wheel or not.

Then the hose is turned on ze, and the surface of the foul 8 washed off. Tnstead of utiliz ing the services of the numerous vags who have the misfortune to be consigned to these wretched quarters, the work of keeping the the jail clean devolves almost wholly upon the jailor. With the apparatus provided for cleaning the jail, there is no_cxcuse for its disgusting condition. When the door of the cell room is opened, the odor that rushes forth is almost overpowering. The filth of the place is a great vermin breeder, and it is literally alive with “graybacks.” ‘The mem- bers of the police force are well aware of this, and on a recent occasion when a pris- oner of three or four days released, u “peeler! ked him if he did not find the place rather “crummy.” The reply fully ex- plains the condition of the jail—'You bet the grays are allfired thick in there, but I worked a new scheme on ‘em, and got along first rate. You see when they got on me pretty thick Tjustturned my clothes insideout and kept changing that w so I kept the infernal things on the outside and didn’t mind them very much.” Another prisone sted that when he laid down on his bl ot ofor the night there were so many vermin under it that they car- ried him, blanket and all, over to the other side of the jail before morning. Whether or not these stories are literally true, it is cer. tain that the jail ought to be in amore decent condition than it has been for some time t. Even the police court room is far from a condition of cleanliness caleulated to create a favorable impression on uny visitor being shown about the city. 1t is very probable, however, that its condition will be much better during the summer months, as the gang of loafers who have in- fested the place during the winter will doubt less find more pongenial quarters upon which to expend their liberal contributions of to- baceo juice. Just” the appearance of th volumes against the city adr it is hoped that common decency and a feel- ing of pride in the good name of the city abroad will cause those who have author in the matter to take immediate steps toward putting the interior of the building in a more inhabitable condition, and then see that it is kept so in the future - Views of the Wild West.

C. nw-vl.u Church members have been v anxious about tho various lives of Beecher being prepared, and were glad to find out one of the family w to prepare a ife. The chief apprehension was that the incidents of the long harrowing trial of the 'Lilton case might be clothed in language fraught with violent memories, liable’ to misconstruc- tion, inadequate yet too adequate. Many advised that no account of the trial be given, but the result was finally that the story in- tended to touch upon the case and criticise it as lightly as posssible, The book is out and many say that bad taste characterize the selection of the incidents of the trial, that Rev. Dr. Richard S. Stowe and Henry C. Bowen, are attacked in it without reason, and that the late John T. Howard’s relations to Beecher and service to Plymouth church are practically ignored and often misrepre- sented. Howard was a great friend of Beeeher's. Church membe also that bad judgment is shown in the selection of let- ters and documents which mark the volume. ‘Thomas (.
