Bib F ish W a s Taken Out River.

Tuesday , June 28. A sturgeon that tipped the scales at

53*4 pounds was t a k e n out of Seneca river, yes terday afternoon. The fish came to the surface after the discharge

-of a d y n a m i t e blast . A t a point in the river near Kipp's Island, where there is

a union of the Seneca river and a tribu-tary s t r e a m , there was a big ledge of rock t h a t could not be dredged. It was necessary _to use heavy charges of dyna­m i t e t o dislodge t h i s rock end: s o m e of them were set off in the river, yester­day. After one unusual ly heavy charge a huge fish, s lowly floated to the surface. Workmen on the gang were somewhat s tart led when they $aw the huge hulK move u p to the surface and several of them expressed the idea t h a t the fish was a shark. The mammoth ti*h remained quiet for a time aud then recovering from the effects of the shock began to move. A hurry call for boats found willing volunteers and a descent was made on the b ig fel low. By th is t ime, his con­sc iousness w a s fast returning and he threshed a-lxuit as the boats tried to land h i m . They finally succeeded and once he was safely ashore the workmen found t h a t they bad brought t o land, a s turgeon. l i e was weighed and found to go three and a quarter pounds over the

sys tem of telegraphy and te lephony in­comparable. There is not a spot the size of the po'mt of a needle on the human body'hut if touched is not i n s t a n t l y com­municated t o the operator in the cerebral cortex.

You would, not think of abus ing or misusing such n delicate, intricate and wond?rful machine were i t other than your body and y e t men abuse and misuse their bodies by tobacco, dr ink,debauchery and dissipation. If there is no God, if thp Bible is a cunningly devise fabl?. if churches and Christ ianity are s imply in­ventions of priests and preachers' the human body in i ts marvelous construc­tion and manipulation and the scriptures tell the truth when H s a y s , "I a m mar­velously and wondrously made ." "If any man defile the temple of God. which is the human body, bim shall God de­stroy for the temple of lioil is holy, which temple y e are. for Jehovah God formed man of the dus t of the ground."

; work to be done includes put t ing in a new floor about the base of the chimney, repairing the roof and considerable <-o*t as to scaffolding and care that the dust does not harm the pumping machinery.

The petit ions of K. J. Wil l iamson and S. I,. Thompson to tap the water mains on Fourth avenue, Melrose park, to con­nect the c i t y water with houses in the course of construction were referred t o Superintendent Ackerman with power to adjust .

C. M. Back ma it of First avenue. Mel­rose park, appeared in person to petit ion for pcrmiss-ion io tap the water main there for his house, already constructed. He was granted permission, subject to the condit ions imposed under the rules of the Water department.

A notice was received from City Clerk Hanlon direct ing the water department to give notice t h a t all repair jobs on the department's property along Os4>orne street , south t o Lincoln street , should be completed before the c i ty ibegina to pave the streetK was received and filed. Chief Engineer John Ackerman reported that there is 23Vs inches of water running over the upper d a m which shows a de­crease of t w o inches in the past week. The pumps are run ■by water b y day and s t eam by night.

Reports from the upper pumping s ta­tion showed a difference of 14 degrees temperature between the upper and lower s t a t u s of water in the lake.

•The fol lowing report was submit ted b y Commissioner Conway of a tr ip of inspection made yesterday afternoon, b y motor car, a long the line of the water­shed . of Owasco lake. The party con­sisted of Commissioners Conway and Benson. Superintendent Ackerman and Inspector McGoverrk Commissioner Henry be ing unexpectedly called to Chi­cago on business could not accompany the party: T h e route taken was south and e a s t from Auburn through Owasco vil lage, thence up Dutch Hollow and b y the s t a t e road to Moravia. Thence to Locke, Groton and Peruton and north to Auburn. T h e ex i s t ing violat ions on the lake tr ibutaries were inspected. On the way the Skaneate le s creamery and the Dutch Hollow cheese factory were in­spected. T h e report continued a s fo l ­l o w s :

At Moravia the comftiissioners cal led upon President Nooning- of the local Board of Hea l th a f ter hav ing examined the condi t ions which general ly obtained there. The Moravia High school h a s an at tendance of approximately 400 pupils, empt ie s i t s c lose t s through a ti le drain direct ly into Mill creek which in turn empt ie s into Owasco lake. The commiss ioners called Pres i ­dent Nooning's -attention to the disposi ­tion of garbage and other putrescent material a long the banks of Mill creek which i s i n d irec t violat ion of the vi l ­lage ordinances and, after an Inspection by Mr. Nooning, he ordered Dr. A n ­thony, the hea l th officer, to abate t h e s e nuisances .

At Locke the comraislsoners cal led at I>r. Sincerbeaux's residence, the heal th officer, but did not find him.

Horrible Is t h e only word in the E n g ­l ish language which -adequately e x ­presses the condit ions found a t Groton. Not only does the major portion o f the s e w a g e of the residential s e c t i o n c f that v i l lage drain tnto the inlet of Owasco lake, but the large manufactur­ing- interests there which employ hun­dreds of men a l s o drain into it. W. G. Rhoades, as s i s tant treasurer of the Standard Typewri ter company, s t a t e d there were in the neighborhood of 120 employes In their offices and factory and the drainape from their plant a p ­parently went direct ly into the inlet.

A t the offices of the Monarch Road Roller Co.. Superintendent G. T. Bacon, stated that 100 employes were at work at that t ime in their shops , the w a s t e from which a l so drains Into the Inlet.

At the Groton Bridge Co. none o f the officers were in town, but the book­keeper, A. H. Swartout, s ta ted that in the bridge shops 35 men were at work at the present time. In the shops of the Safety Tread works about 10 m e n were found at work. Both o f

Howard P.

Mr. Gage has a field 30 m i l e s long and has five preaching s tat ions . He h a s trav­eled from one end of the divis ion t o the other and has only succeeded in finding one other c lergvman on the tract and he is a German. N^arlv every S u n d a y Mr. Gage has live services t o care for, three ot »hein beiutf Dreachipi* services and the other t w o Sunday schools and y o u n g people's meet ings . One S u n d a y he had to ride ten miles bareback to organize a Sunday school. He w a s in hopes of or­ganizing a church on the tract a s all of the people wish one. The crop has been nearly a total failure this year , however , and the people will have hard t i m e s ge t ­t ing through the winter. The fol lowing letter received from Mr. Gage las t week gives a good description of the difficul­t ies that the farmers mee t in hot w e a t h ­er:

"We have had t w o weeks of hot sum­mer weather. A hot wind lias burned the crops and wi th it the hopes of a church building. I hav? jus t received the appl i ­cation from the board of church erection. People are very blue and I do n o t wonder. It is hard t o see wheat and o a t s head­ing out e ight inches above the ground and have that burned. I k n o w o? one man who offered his ent ire crop of grain 100 acres for $1 an acre.
