Chairman Boys of the Light, Water and Sewers Committee, was asked what had been done in the way of extending the waterworks and electric light, pirticularlv` in ward 6. He `said that the matter had not been neglected. but they found that in the waterworks nothing could be done till lateer in the season, owing to the _faot that till the dry season came, water lled the trenches `as fast as they were excavated. The work would be pushed as soon as it `could be done properly; ,, _`___.I!-_A.:-....

The electric power at present will not support more than about `8 or 9 more llights Therefore they wish to` know all who think themselves entitled to lights, so that they may consider all the claims and place the 8 lights where they are most needed. In the matter of incandescent lights. he saidthat he had looked into the matter and found three 32 c.p. incandescent lights were about equal to one are light.

About 10 days ago he sud- denlv re-appeared in Penetang, having in his possession a bicycle and there watches. He next burgarlized Beck s store, having ei- fected an entrance by the back door. He was brought before P. M. Hewson, and got 23 months in the Central, after which he was landed in Barrie jail by Constable Mo- Laughliurawaixing removal to the Central. o0n Saturday he expressed a strong yearning to be taken to the Central, hinting at trouble if this were not done. In the afternoon he proceeded to amuse himself by breaking some dozen windows at the jail by throwing stones through them. - He is a tough-looking specimen, and looks as if he might well be corraled for life in a jail-yard. Exchanged It For a. Lady's Gold Fined Watch--The Gun Was Mr. Le1'roy a. Detective Beardsley on Mondav last suc- ` ceeded in recovering the double-barreled shotgun stolen from Mr. Lefroy s cottage at ; the time of the Ross robberies. The `detec- tive traced the gun to Nipissing Junction. and recovered it from J. W. Tremayne; jeweller, of that place. Tremayne says he traded a lady s gold-lled watch for It to a person supposed to be Robt Harmon. Upon receipt of this intelligence Detective Bearde- lev proceeded at once to the Harmon house and succeeded in recovering what is pre- sumably the missing watch from Gertrude Harmon, sister of Robert. be having made her a present of it. rs `I\ -1 17-1 1 ,, ,, 4 __:L____ _g `L- ; nova --It----v-- -- --. 1 'One David Kidd was a witness of the trade between Tremayne and the man sup- posed to have been Harmon.
