Clarke. Commissioner Lott of the wire department has made seven appointments in his department, as follows: J. Nash Ives, 67 Clifton st, ward 16, in-Spector, salary $1000 a year. Thomas A. Dunham, 6 Sheldon st ward 22; G.

W. Fuller, 43 Warren st, ward 21; J. A. Desmond, 231 Columbus av, ward 10; Thomas W. Fitzgerald, 38 Gove St.

ward 2, and John S. Keenan, 47 Harvard st, ward 20, deputy each at a salary of $1000 a year. Albert J. Bleiler, 54 Minden st, ward 22. lineman, salary $858 a year.

In annoupcing the appointments Commissioner Lott states that the city will be divided into 13 districts for the interior division, seven for the exterior division for overhead inspection, and four for underground inspection. Each man will be held responsible for the proper inspection of the work performed in his district. By this increase in the force. the commissioner states. old wiring installed previous to the creation of the department, as well as isolated plants.

will be more thoroughly inspected than ia the past. The new supervising architect of the public buildings department is George It. Clarke of ward 23. He succeeds Frank W. Howard.

who resigned to engage in private business. The salary is S2500 a year. The annual report of the wire department has been submitted to Mayor Hart by Commissioner Lott. It is Mr Lott's first report, as he was appointea to the office a year ago to succeed Thomas W. Flood.

The department is engaged in burying electric wires, under the authority of an act of the legislature, and about all the work in the business section of the city is completed. Of the overhead work, the commissioner says: "The streets from which poles, overhead wires, cables, conductors, etc, were ordered to be removed during the year 1900 were Harrison av, between Dover and Northampton sts; Dover st, between Tremont and ALbany sts; Wareham st, between Malden and Albany sts; Concord st, between Albany et and Shawmut av, and Northampton at, between Albany st and Shawmut av; a total distance et 10.615 feet. "The companies operating wires on and over these streets are actively engaged in removing the remaining wires, and when this is completed the poles will be removed. Exclusive of the Elevated railway company poles, used for the support of trolley wires, there are standing in the streets named above 129 poles, occupied by the Boston electric light company. New England telephone and telegraph company, Suburban light and power company, fire department, fire alarm branch, and police signal service, and others.

"There were many wires crossing the streets from buildings in addition to those on poles, the whole amounting to about 500,000 feet, much of which has already been removed. The feeders and returns of the Boston elevated railway company on Harrison av and Northampton st, amounting to about 75,000 feet, are being removed at the present time. "The old style of roof construction is rapidly disappearing in the business Eeetio of the city, and it is seldom that a fixture is placed upon a roof except by companies operating high-potential wires. In evidence of this. would say that in 189tl.

on the roofs of buildings bounded by Devonshire, Water, Congress and State sts, there were fixtures, single and double, supporting 954 wires. These wires were anywhere from one foot to 25 feet above the roofs, so that in many places it was difficult to cross the roof without being In contact with a number of wires at one and the same time. Today there but cne fixture in this block, and 10 or 12 wires, which are sufficiently high to permit of the free use of the roof. The system adopted by the low-tension wire association is to trunk their wires along the walls of buildings, and not cross over the roofs. This style of construction is less expensive and less objectionable to property owners.

"The result of fuse Inspection has been more than satisfactory, it seldom being found that an installation has been made without the line being suitably protected. This is a safeguard and a great improvement over the conditions at the time the wire department was created, ais Inspection at that time showed that the absence of suitable protection devices was the rule rather than the exception. "A survey is being made to determine the exact location cf every pole in the limits of the city used for the support of telegraph, telephone, fire alarm. police, electric light and other wires. This is a difficult task and is one which has never before been attempted to my knowledge.

It is estimated that there are about 20,000 poles standing in the streets at the present time. not including the poles of the Boston elevated railway company, used for the support of trolley wires." In discussing underground work Commissioner Lott states that "all persons engaged in excavating the streets who wilfully or negligently cause any underground electrical duct to rest upon or against a gas, water or metallic drain pipe endanger the lives and property of the people of the city of Boston. and they should be strictly responsible for their treattrntt of all such ducts and conduits by ordinance or act of the legislature, and it seems to me that the time has arrived for more stringent regulation of the methods of digging around. above and below the electrical conduits, laid under the surface of the streets. "Of the fact that fires are most likely to occur from this cause there is no doubt.

as it is well known to this department that the system of conduits are in electrical contact with the gas-pipe systems. but at what points and how many it is unable to state." The work of the interior division. Commissioner Lott states, has largely increased over previous years. "Some supervision of electrical work is necessary until building is completed." the commissioner -says, "even though the work of the electrical contractor is done in a safe and satisfactory manner, as the average workman in lines other than those electrical seems to have no proper appreciation of the possible dangers that may arise from injury to wires or their insulation, or to the running in close proximity to same of pipes or other matter foreign to them, and while work of an electrical contractor might be done in a safe and satisfactory manner. some action on the part of employes of other contractors might malt, wiring, etc, unsafe."

Mr Maynard, who was the successful csndidate out of a field of 12, has had considerable experience, in this linP, as he served two years ago in this capacity. He is a resident uf this town and a veteran of the tAVII war. The board received two petitions af-king for a special town meeting one In regard to street lighting and the other In regard to an appropriation for a new school building at North Weymouth. At the annual town meeting the voters failed to make an appropriation for eketrie lights and the town has been in darkness ever since. Vas Petition was pretty generally signed.

The town at the annual town meeting also appropriated $25 0t.0 for a new eight-room brick school building for North Weymouth, the money to be raised by notes. The action is now considered illegal, as the vote was not verified by a count. The selectmen appointed Friday evening, April 12, at the skating rink, East Weymcuth. as the time and place for the spevial meeting. The members cf.

Last evening's special. however. proved an exception. the voters getting excited over and practically favoring a proposal for a $75.000 brick schoolhouse in the canter of the town for the higher grades. It will take a two-thirds vote to adopt the proposed improvement.

For dainty Easter effects, a visit to the store of Jordan, Marsh Co will Convince prospective buyers that the stock displayed this spring has 'never been celipeed in this city. The first floor presents a busy scene to the visitor, the most conspicuous object being the figure of a woman gowned in the latest syle standing in a huge half Easter egg which forms a sort of chariot. This ruddy and clever maiden holds the reins of over 30 rabbits which appear to be scampering over the greensward with life and vigor.

The decoration and design are unique every respect and go far toward sustaining the exeellent reputation of the store for its displays.

The immense pipes are arranged exactly like the pipes of a church organ and the keys, stops and all the necessary parts are there and aro of On a rack rests a sheet of music and from a short distance the organ is perfect.

The stops are black ink erasers. A bower lf wisteria surrounds the display aryl the ensemble is altogether faiggestive of Easter. One of the clever women in the store conceived and executed the design. which is admittedly attractr. and successful.

hat it has been decided to CI Italla a fee of Spaniels and Fox Terriers Also Passed Upon. Many High Awards Go to Dr C. A. Lougest's Animals. By the unusually large opening day attendance it would be no exaggeration were the dog show to be called the Easter week attraction.

The doors to Meclinic's building were opened to the public at 9 o'clock, and in one hour from that time an encouraging attendance was gathered around the judging rings, to Ete the mastiffs and St Bernerds marched around on the sawdust, and posed for the bringing out of determining contours by which a good animal is known from an inferior one. There was a remarkably large attendance of ladies, due perhaps to the interest women of late years have taken in the dog.r When as judging cornmenced half a hundred women who are known as individual owners or as being connected with seme one of the recently' organized women's kennel clubs, took seats in the observation pavilion, which commands a view of the ring. From these seats they watched with keen interest the work of Miss A. H. Whitney of Lanlaster, this state, whose knowledge of mastiffs and St Bernards IS recognized as expert.

She patted the great shaggy fellows, looked them in the eye for expression, slid a gloved hand over their backs and loins and legs for shape and bone. arranged them side by side for comparison, and, finally, when she made up her mind as to "who was who" in the dog World, those Who knew dogs could not help agreeing with her findings. Dr A. Lougest had things all his own way in the mastiff class. An immense amount of interest attended the judging of the St Bernards, and Miss 'Whitney's faculties were exercised to the utmost, for the competition was close.

The observation which a small admission is charged. was well filled, and the rails around the ring were thickly fringed with devotees of the dog. While these great, shaggy fellows were being judged, an interesting and lively group of wire-haired fox terriers were assembled in another ring. More than usual interest was attached to the judging of these little fellows, because of the appearance of Richard Harding Davis. the author and war correspondent, who showed his own dog, Itaby Forecast, an imported wire-haired fox terrier, bred by George Raper.

Raby Forecast took third in the novice Class, and was very highly commended in the limit class. Mr Davis was dressed in a. sack suit of very quiet shade, and was present some considerable time before his identity was discovered. after the there was promise of a very Inrge attendance. Judging came to an end for the fore-neon about 12, but was taken up again in the afternoon, and continued Just long cnough to keep the people interested.

By the scheme this year of not hurrying the Judging and stretching it out through the entire four days, patrens of the show will get more enjoyment, as the interest in judging is such that it can no longer be considered a part of the show to be got rid of as soon as possible. The group of trick dogs comprises some of the best performers in the country. They will 1e seen every afternoon and evening during the four days of the showe. Here are the forenoon awards: MASTIFFS.

LOWELL, April 2The indications are that there will be some settlement in a few days of the painters' strike or lockout. Journeymen say the bosses will meet tonight to instruct their arbitration committee. One of the bosses says the employers believe a committee of the journeymen should wait on them, if they have any demands to make.

There is no change in the situation with the locked-out painters and striking plasterers of this city today except that three master painters and two plasterers have given in to ths demands of their employes and have resumed business, liat all other shops are closed and a large amount of spring work is suspended. The plasterers' union met last night and voted unanimously to hold out for their demandS125 per day and eight hoursand they invited a proposition from their employers. The master plasterers met this forenoon and voted to adhere to the present scale. $3.25 and nine hours. The painters' union met last night and voted again to hold out for their demand of $2.25 per day and eight hours.

The master painters have made no proposition to th3ir employes. WILL NOT RECEDE AT PRESENT. It is Understood Ipswich Corporation Has Given Assurances of Reinstating Wages When Conditions Warrant IPSWICH, April 2No change in the strike situation is apparent today. The strikers held a largely attended meeting in town hall this forenoon and listened to a report of the committee appointed yesterday to confer with the state board of arbitration. Several suggestions favorable to an early adjustment of the trouble were made, but no action was taken.

It is understood that the corporation will not recede from its position just at present, but has given assurances that the wages of the operatives will be reinstated as soon as the condition of the market will warrant: The attitude of the strikers, as exemplified by a vote taken this forenoon. shows that they are not inclined to accept the percent reduction at present. Many of the operatives have already been offered positions elsewhere, and unless the strike is settlede here the coming week, it is known that many will leave town. Thus far but one who left the mills last week, has returned to work. This forenoon Rev E.

J. McConnell. pastor of the Methodist church, addressed the strikers. NEWSPAPER DIAN PAYMASTER. Mat EL M.

WHITE MICE PEST IN NEW JERSEY. Cats of No Avail and Residents of Mercerville Hoping Some Pied Piper Will Come Their Way. MERCERVILLE, April 2---This community is suffering from a plague of white mice, which swarm in houses and barns. 'rho trouble had its origin a year ago last summer, when a man visited Mercerville carrying a cage of white mice trained to do trieks and tell fortunes by selecting cards from a pack. The mouse man did a thriving business for nearly two weeks.

One clay a terrier wandered that way, and before the mouse man could stop him was in the tent mixing up with the mice. He made short work of the cage, and had slaughtered a half dozen mice before his master could call hint off. A dozen or more of the mice disappeared. The owner of the dog paid liberal damages and the fortune teller left town. It was not long before white mice began to appear in the houses of Mercer-vine.

They haunted the milk rooms, Provision closets and attics, and nested in bureau drawers. They the feed boxes and grain bins of the farmers and played havoc with the stock of the village storekeepers. One night a meeting was held at the village store. with the purpose of devising means of ridding the community of the mice. It was thought that the quickest way to annihilate the pests would he te plant the village with cats.

The next day 100 cats were distributed among the families in Mercerville. To the utter amazement of the village the cats had no appetite for white mice. They not only refused to kill them, but appeared to like their company. The people got rid of the extra cats and strewed their houses with pieces of-bread and cheese smeared with poison, but the mice refured to nibble the soned food. Now the housewives are hoping that a Pied Piper will wander that way.
