It was referred to the committee on streets and sidewalks, with power to act, and to urge the Episcopal Church authorities to improve their walks adjacent thereto. The committee on Borough property was authorised to procure supplies for several minor improvements previously ordered made. The" monthly estimate of Adams Electric Company, for supplies and labor done to March 1, 1911, approved by Engineer Young, amounting to $3,277.78, was presented.

This was the first estimate regularly presented for payment, although $2,166.00 had been paid on account through the Farmers National Bank. The estimate was duly passed upon and ordered paid. The balance of the payment amounted to $1,111.78. Numerous small accounts, aggregating about $85.00, were erdered paid. The superintendent stated that he had requested the Fire Department to flush the fire plugs at their earliest convenience.

The committee on streets and sidewalks were authorized to look after the gate-boxes of the water-mains, to have them uncovered and located, and that a key for each box be procured. Mr. Adams suggested that the electric light poles be painted green to a height of 10 or 12 feet and capped with white; also that they be numbered, in order to be easily designated in case of trouble of any kind to the wires. Mr. Kastenhuber spoke in terms of highest praise of the work thus far done by the Adams Company, but refrained from throwing any bouquets until after the completion of the work.

Everything at the power house is now progressing nicely, and Mr. Adams thinks that, with ordinarily fair weather, the work will be well advanced by next week this time. The Mayor said that it had been suggested to him by several townsmen that there ought to be some sort of public dedication of both the water and electric light plants upon the completion of the latter, by public services in the hall or elsewhere. It is possible that Council will take the matter up at the April meeting. The meeting was adjourned to March 20, 1911, at 7.30 o'clock.

Congress has advanced the salary of rural letter carriers to $1000 a year for standard routes of 24 miles or over. When carriers' wives act as substitutes, as many of them do, their salary will be $1042 per annum. In the latter part of January, when the Post Office Bill was up for consideration, sentiment seemed to favor placing rural carriers on the same footing with city carriers at a salary of $1200 a year.

Amendments to this effect were offered in both the Senate and House, but, under the rules, oould not be voted upon. It is very probable, however, that the farther increase will be made by the next Congress. aunt miss JuUiian nvetcnum. R. E.
