Some few weeks ago I called upon
M i Ki en Qeneral Monagi i. of the
North Springtlehl Water Co., lor the
purpose of ascertaining if possible up
in what term o contract could be made
for the supply of water to the borough

Mr. Keen submitted Io me the (ol

i contract could lie mad)
lb' proposes that a contract he made
[Or flVO yeari at a yearly rental of
voiiii per plug for fifty lire plugs ami
> i ...no per plug for every additional

a new contract be made for live
rears at the price of 116.00 tor Baoh
ping, AI the expiration of this second
(ontract ■ further reduction would be
made if the business at Oonshohocken
would warrant it.
He said the intention of tin company
was Io make its water rental for lire
purposes for Oonshohocken as low as
.bey consistently could, and the reason
if their asking an increase over the old
rater rates was to secure some return
for the cost of erection of the stand
pipe and its connections amounting to
ibout $11.11110.00.
I ilo not think that a lower mice can
be secured from this company nor do I
lelleve a lower price would be decreed

riiere can be no question but that the
meaning of this act Indicates that a
policeman performing his duties as e
policeman shall be paid his stipulated
rages as ■ policeman but while per-forming
these duties he can receive an
•ither fee or compensation tor services
rendered which naturally it is his duty
to perform as such policeman
There being no mention Of extra du-ly
in the act, he should be paid for ex-tra
duty performed al the same wages
paid for his regular duly.
Therefore In ibis case i think when
those policemen wereperformlngdntlea
IS policemen although doing over time
or extra duty they should be allowed
their wages toP th» extra time made.

prohibited meaning of the. net. It is

After the rending was finished, Mr

so serious In tact that almost by a mir-acle
he was laved from being crippled

him to his home for several days.
The elevator is used only for freight,
runs the distance of four stories and
has a carrying capacity of several

There is no doubt that we do not

icily of V i. I gallons. They
will be thoroughly tested before they
are accepted by the city. It is ox
pected that the new pumps being ill -
tailed at the high testing station at
Boxborough will be placed in operation
u vi week.
The rare presence of mind of James
Blake, baggage master at the Heading
station saved Mrs. Mary llelaney, of
Mxth avenue from a horrible death
isicrilay morning. As she started to
cross the track to lake the Norristown
train, the south bound train came into
in station and while many stood pow-erless.
Illake rushed out at the risk of
his own life anil pulled bor offthetraek
just as the pilot of the engine grazed
her dress. Those on the platform turn-ed
their heads, thinking that the Wom-an
would be surely ground under the
wheels
After eeelng ihat she was ail right,
Hlake modestly went about ins duties
ami Mrs lielamy said afterwards thnt
she didn't really know what happened.
