siding.
A communication lrom several
property owners on Crawford
street stated that they would not
remonstrate ngamst the hard
surfacing of tho street between
Pittsburg and Burlington pro
vided the excavation work was
done at the city's expense. This
street was macadamized about
fifteen months ago, nnd the pro
perty owners felt that it was an
imposition to require them to
pay for removal of a portion of
the crushed rock so soon after it
had been laid. As the city need
ed the rock for repair work, it
was decided to pay from the gen
eral fund such sum as was nec
cessary to plnco tho street at the
iropor grade for hard suriacing.
I'ho citv emrineer estimated
thut the cost of such work would
not exceed $190. A resolution
was adopted providing for this
contingency.
The Peninsula iron worKs
asked that the P. R. L. &. P. Co.
be instructed to remove the elec
tric light poles in the way of tho

The Two fire Places
The following poem was pre
sented to G. L. Perrine by uu
uncle who is eighty years of age:
sat before a modem fire place
With vacuum draught and man
tle of grace.
And while I was musing my
thoughts were turned
'0 the distant past, as the fire
burned.
'0 the old stone fire place of my
boyhood days.
When hide and seek and all such
plays.
With snap and ketch'em nnd
blind man's bull'.
Never realizing that wo had
enough.
The old stone fire place with its
mantle and hearth
n young memory'a vaults is tho
dearest on earth:
With bock log and forostick and
hrnnds of hright fire,
t thrills with emotion my heart's
tuneful lyre.
Their familiar faces draw near
one by one:
Their stories, their fancied
through my memory run;
The old family Bible is taken
down from the stand,
With an nlr of respect and a
trembling hnnd.
And circling around that old fire
place
Joined parents and children
thanking God for His grnce,
Consecrating thomsolves and
their children to Uod,
M'j .ll.lll. t.t fllfl llltllf til. 1).Mlll,kiu
iu vttiin 111 vnv .ij iiiw iumiuii
have trod.
And now as I sit before a lire
place ho fine.
Presented to me hy one so lov
ing y kind.
My heart joins iu with our fore-
lathcrs prayers
That God in His mercy for chil
dren would care.
And the prayers that have as
cended on that dour old sod,
Thut we be an unbroken family
in tho Kingdom of God,
My heart says Amen with my
kinsmen of yore
As I sit tonight, just past four
score.
iVnd as I am musing 1 coma face
to face
With the dear ones gono by as
their faces 1 trace.
Again I'm a boy around tho bo
loved old hearth,
Popping corn, cracking nut In
boisterous mirth.
But all of a sudden 1 jump iu '
surprise:
Two soft nrms around my nuok,
two mischievous eyes,
tttnrlil iimi tif I ifi I inn irn.
UWVI infill, IS,
ing to bod,"
To dispel all my reveries that
was all that was said.
And I want to say a word of
thanks to the one
That has made it possible under
tho sun
That we may sit this winter
with our foot to the fire
Our dear brother's son, tho son
of his sire.
Theso lines are dedicated to G,
L. Perrine,
My dear namesake, son of Jacob
in line,
Whoso mother, Jane Lincoln,
in memory dear,
Was a kin to A. Lincoln, seems
very clear.
