Preston took the stand that Mr. Drinkle was very anxious to get the job seme time ago and that if he was not satisfied with his present salary he should quit. He did not think jt was the duty of Dr. McKay to recommend the salary increase, and if the M.O,H. was going tn hire four feet on the public street. This was -due to the facet that originally when the survey was made the street was 60 feet wide but since the street had heen made 66 feet wide. Mr. Conant suggested that inasmuch as the houses AT Ing on the street were of good con- struction, occupied by good citizens, steps be taken to restore the street to its original width of 60 feet, Mayor Stacey commenting on the letter stated that originally the sur- veyor placed his stakes in the wrong place, Some members of the Council thought it was a matter for the Rail- way Board to decide, or that the Council should either deed or sell to these people the portion of town property on which their houses on- eroached, The matter was referred to the Town Engineer the Board of Works, Say Streets Deplorable A letter was read from the secre- tary of the Board of Trade, enclos- ing copy of a resolution passed by the Kxeecutive of the Board Monday afternoon, 'calling Council's atten- tion to the filthy and dangerous con- dition of several streets of the town particularly the business section and station approaches.

Reports of marital unhappiness, ending in murder, suicide, assault or desertion have been appearing with growing frequency, it seems, in the metropolitan papers the last while. Such tragedies are deplorable, net only because they occur, but because they give a wery wroag impression to young people who ave, or should be, contemplating marriage. Hap- piness does not always end with tak- ing of mariage wows, as the fre- quent marital differences of fate might be taken to jmdicate.
