For sey- eral days prior to the enucus an active effort was made to secure votes against those two, largely upon the ground that Mr. fiew‘n‘ll‘ is presgldent of the Me- \dima & Alabama Plank road Company, and that Mr. Downs voted for the law by which any person desiring to have «the gate shut down and toll not taken . must make application to the County Court.

JAMES CARTER HAS COMPLETED HIS CONTRACT-A FINB DRINK ING FOUNTAIN-COOL AND PURB WATBR FOR ALL THIRSTY MORTALS. 'The new drinking fountain of the W. C. P. U. was this morning placed. in position In front of No, 91 Main Street. James Carter who has had the matter in-charge stated some time ago that the fountain would be in working order by 'the time of the Firemen's Convention 'and he has kept his word. The fountain is about six and one-half feat high of cylinder shape surmounted by a statute., In position in the basement of the store opposite. 'The water after it leaves the filter passes through 28 feet of pipe fve-cights of an inch in diameter. 'The pipe is packed in ice, thus making the wator eccol when drawn. 'The new drinking fountain is the first one of its kind ever made. Mr. Carter was the inventor. He is considering the pattenting of his new device. On each side of the fountain, just over the fau- ; cet are the letters, W. C. C. U. Mr. Carter has superintended the building 'of the fountain personally, which assures its being of the best quality and worknianship. 'The way- farer can now be. supplied with pure, cool sparkling water. GRAND PICNIC ; AT WILSON'S GROVE, | YESTERDAY, From the Union-Sun of Aug, 13.

Special to Union-Sun from staif Cor- respondent. Youngstown Aug. 12.-Iwo persons were overcome by the heat yesterday. Jesse Spencer of Hast Wilson fainted. | Medical aid was summoned and he was able to return to his home this after-| noon. Lamont Ward of Wilson was' also overcome by the heat yesterday afternoon. Dr. Draper was called. Ar. Ward is resting comfortably this after-; noon, but is not considered out of dan- ger. 'Three soldiers were obliged to drop out of ranks during the parade as the heat was too much for them. A man who gave his name as W. A. Hall of Buffalo, was arrested last night for picking the pocket of Thomas Lyon of Lewiston. This morning he was taken before Justice Sweet and fined $30 which he paid and was discharged. About 2 o'clock this morning two soldiers from the Fort stole a horse and this village from the MeceCollum barn. The soldiers could not find the bridle, but used a rope instead. 'The owner of the horse caught the soldiers riding down the Main Street of the village. One of the boys in blue was riding hprse back and the other was in the car- riage. No arrests were made. PEITY THIEVING. House-Breakers Are Opera- ting in the City. A BAND ROOM BROKEN OPEN- ~ THIEVES OPERATING ON POUND AND SPAULDING STREETS-AN ATTEMPT AT EN- TERING THE HOUSE- OF DIS- 'FRICT ATTORNEY HOPKINS, Several cases of petty thieving have come to notice. A few evening ago the rooms of the Citizen's Reed Band were entered. The door was pried open by a cold chisel and the room searched. _ J. S. Witmer who lives on Spaulding Strget near Washburn stated to a TUnion-Sun reporter this morning that at 3 o'clock Tuesday morning he saw two men making a tour of the house of District Attorney Hopkins. The men were standing near the corner of the house when discovered, but afterwards walked away. The house is empty as the family of Mr. Hopkins are out of the city. Thieves have evidently been at work on Pound Street. A resident of that street had $10 taken from his house one evening this week. - Lockport has been remarkably free from thieves for several years, and it is very probable that the house break- ers who have been at work for the past §e§1v weeks will be speedily lodged in ail. LOCKPORT'S VERSION. . OF SATURDAY'§S BASE BALL GAME IS FULL OFP INCONSIS- 'FENCY AND DEROGATORY RE- MARKS. The above heading and the following article were taken from the North Tonawanda Evening News of Tuesday: The’ Lockport Journal of yesterdzfy contained a half column write up of Saturday's ball game, which is played here, the whole of which was a gross insult to Umpire Reisterer and the j home team. 'The following is a mild ex-} tract from the article: \In the sixth in- nings Umpire Reisterer ran in five \Y. M. C. A.s\ on a foul between third and home. This the Wheelmen refused to stand and insisted upon having another umpire. 'The \Y. M. C. A.'s would not listen to this, so the Wheelmen quit the game. The \YX. M. C. A.'s jumped into p their carryall and drove away. They were not decent enough to carry the | visitors' paraphernalia to the station. I which is customary for a home team to do for their guests.\ Ordinary horse sense would have shown the writer of the article that with every base full and the man at! bat knocking a home run, four would be : the highest possible number of runs to - be brought in. The' foul which the writer speaks about was as fair a ball as was ever sent into the field. © Stumpf hit the ball and made a two-bagger, ; 1 Capt. Vickers invited the Lockport team to ride to the hotel, but this they would not do, because if they had it would have spoil- ed the story they had arranged to tell.

Many citizens of this city are in favor of sending the Ithaca city band to enter the band contest at the state convention at Lockport the 20th, of this mounth. If the people generally desire it and will aid them to pay expenses Leader Con- way says his full band will be glad to attend and do all in their power to bring back new musical honors to this city. It is known now that the leading musicians of other cities speak en- couragingly of the proposition and say, that the chances of our winning the dis- tinguished honor and prize are excel- lent. . When more has been done in the mat- ter the News will make it known to the city. - R ' One thing can be relied upon the News will be found a willing aid in any undertaking that aims to raise Ithaca to fame and honor either at home or abroad. That is its purpose in all sea- sons. And the News has not been stingy in regard heretofore. It will not be stingy now. The running team of Torrent Hose i No. 5 are practicing daily for the Lock- port tournament. Itis said by those who give the subject attention that, with Watkins as coupler and in good condition, this team can to-day tun and uncouple and couple in less time than the famous Emeralds of Cortland made in their championship days. So good is Watkins and so reliable as a coupler that it is astonishing to the judges to see him whirl the nozzle in the air and make it hit the pipe and whirl around and catch. When the, Waterloo judges took hold of the pipe to see if it would hold water he couldn't : unscrew it for fifteen minutes or more, | so hard did Watkins drive it to. its place. . In view of the Lockport contest it is not policy to give details of what the 15mm has done and does do every night in their exercise. But they run like deer and are not winded and Watkins does his work like Buffalo Bill or Paw- nee Bill shooting a ball in the air. Do the people of Ithaca wish the team to take the Lockport State prize? Ithaca Daily News. R Secretary George E. Emerson receiv- ed word to-day that the above com- pany, (Torrent Hose) consisting of 30 men, accompanied by the Ithaca City Band of 35 pieces will attend the con- vention. The company has entered the those race and will bring a racing cart. ' The band will enter the band contest, -and Ithaca will be right in it.

ACCORDING TO INSTRUCTIONS: FROM CHIEF MOLYNBUX-HAS CAPTURED 31, KILLED 12 AND - THRED HAVE BEEN RECLAIM- ' HD. mean The following communication was sent to the Union-Sun office to-day and. while it may be exaggerated in some of the details it is only fair to Mr. Neuse to state that he is making preparations to abate what the neighbors complain of. *~ Lockport, N. Y., Aug. 18, 1896. To the Editor of Union-Sun: < The people in they icinity of the dog: pound are horrfled at the brutal map- ner in which the confined dogs are kept and disposed. . The dogs are captured in one day and. confined in one cage, big and little, and the consequence is, there\is generally is a fight going on all time. Also they are not well watered and. fed and their yelps are disturbing even the strongest of nerves. In disposing of them the dog are tied in a bunch and shot. Last evening a number wereshot three times before they were killed. The neighbors are indignant over this way the dogs are treated, and take this way of making it known to the public and hope the S. P. C. A. will take it in hand: R . A Union-Sun man met Mr. Neuse, the dog catcher, at police headquarters this morning in- consultation with , Chief Molyneux in regard to the manner of disposing of the uncalled for canines. A summary of the work already ac- complished by the dog catcher was ob- tained from him and is as follows: Au- gust 11th, caught 12 dogs, August 12th 8 dogs, captured, August 12th caught & dogs. Total, 31. Reclaimed by owners, 3. Shot last night 12 dogs. Some one let eight of the dogs out of the pen last evening and after a long 'chase. the dog catcher succeeded in re- capturing four of them. He promises to make it intersting for anyone caught at this trick and as he Has the law on his side it might be better for the guilty parties to think of the consequences bp— fore repeating the trick.
