At Brazil, as a part of the contention between the mayor and the city council in regard to the right of the former to appoint the water works board, the city council this week adopted an ordinance which abolished the water works board. The mayor, at the time the council set up the water works board as a department of the city government surprised the council by quickly appointing three men to form the board, but the council, also, named a board. The contention of the mayor that he had the right was upheld in the Parke county circuit court, and now the council evens the score by ending the existence of the mayor’s board.

SOCIAL SOCIAL SOLECISM

The Romine, John Vermillion, Lawter and Ison families, as a part of their entertainment at the Vermillion home in Clinton township, Sunday, went fishing in the Vermillion fish pond. The luck of the others was not good, but Romine committed the unforgivable social solecism of catching the biggest fish in his host’s pond. Mr. Romine says it was “about” 18 inches long. His alibi, in the matter of the social error, is that he knows nothing whatever about fishing, and that the sucker, or carp, —he isn’t sure what it was—must have snagged itself on his hook. He regrets the occurence, he says, and he has an idea that Mr. Vermillion also regrets it, even more.
