THAT TROUBLESOME SWITCH. Br. Weaver and Mr. Campbell Uo To taw About the Matter. Some time ago. it will e remembered, the Tractlotv company went diwn on South Washington street white the resi dent slept and next morning there was a switch completed. It raised a great fu at the time, and some people even went so fair as to uy that this wa the way In whloh the street committee of council punched a cwtaln property owner for refusing to have asphalt luld In front of ihl residence. Yesterday another phase of the trou ble wan -brought xt when Dr. Vv. U. Weaver and James Campbell began a suit In equity against the Coalville Passenger railway and the Wllkes liiirre and Wyoming Valley Traction company. The bill, after reciting at length the parties interested, set forth the trouble as follows: That on Aug. 14. A. D. 1S. the de fendants tore up their slnIe track along the center of outh Washington street and. without nny legal authority, or right, laid double trucks on said street, for a distance of about 150 feet, and Immediately in front of the prop erty of your orators, and an? now using the said railroad tracks In violation of law. That the width of said Washington street from curb to curb Is twenty-nine feet. The said double railroad tracks occupy fourteen feet eleven Inches of said street, and where cars pass along said tracks there arv only live feet six Inches of the street on either fide of the cars left for pltg vehicles, a space Insurtleli-nt for public trawl. That the occupation of said South Washington street by double tracks, as the same are now located, with pas senger railway cars running over the same, Is a hindrance to public travel in the said street. Inconvenient and dan Serous to passing vehicles, dangerous to life, and i eatly damage your ora tors In the fre use and enjoyment of their several properties owned along said street where said double tracks are laid. That there Is no necessity for the location and maintenance of double passenger railway .oraaks where the same are now located, the distance from the place where the tracks are laid to the terminus of the railroad being about 700 feet. That your orators have been In formed and believe that the said double railroad tracks were lakl as aforesaid for the accommodation of other street railway lines leased and operated by the Wllkes-Barre and Wyoming Valley Traction company. The plaintiffs apply to the court for relief as follows: First That a decree may be made re straining the said Coalville Pasavngar Railroad company and Wllkes-Barre and Wyoming Valley Traction com pany from maintaining and using the the said double railroad tracks and running passenger railway cars over the same; compelling the said Coal ville Passenger I '.all road company and the Wllkes-Barre and Wyoming Valley Traction company to take up and re move the said double railroad tracks from the place where the same are now located, and that they 'be perpetually enjoined from replacing or relnying any railroad track upon any part of said street other than a isingle railroad track along the center of Washington rtneet where H was first laid down. Second That your orators may have such other and further relief in the premises as the nature of the case may require. Hon. H. TV. Palmer and A. C. Camp bell, are solicitors for the plaintiff. SUING WILKES. BAR RE. An Ex-Pollc Officer Sites to Recover l ine Imposed. Teterday morning an Interesting hearing took place before Alderma.i Donohue. It wa the case of Joseph Net 01tt against the city of Wllkes liarire, and is a te&t case on which a number of other cults depend. Nttfbltt it seems was, In 1S95, ap pointed a reserve policeman and dis charged his duties satisfactorily when ever called upon until July SI, when he was fined $30 for drunkenness and fail ure to report. He paid the tine ami con tinued In the service until the eairly part of the present month, when the fwme charge wa preferred against him. The second charge wa sustained us the lire .had been, and this time Nesvitt was removed from the- force. Now he brings suit to recover the $30 fine, which he has already paid. At the hearing yesterday morning, Nesbltt was represented by John hea, while Attorney Olbbons was present for the city. Chief Briggs, Councilman fientlehuber, chairman of the police committee, and Assistant City Clrk Oates testified aa to the facts In the case. Both lawyers made excellent ar guments, .Mr. O'Arbonn claiming that council has the right to fine a man for the first offense, and it Is the custom to do so, reserving Mre penalty of dis missal until the second. Mr. She claimed that council had no right to impose the fine, and that It wa an ex tremely Irregular proceeding, besides that Nepbltt should have had two days' notice 'of the fine, -which he failed to get. There I a. technicality In the oaite that may cause trouble. Mir. Nesbltt Is enrolled aa Joseph Nesbltt, the charges were preferred against J. Nes bltt, and the fine was Imposed on James Ncshltt. The alderman, after hearing the case, said that he must give a de nt ion In ten days, but requested . the attorney) to allow tilm two weeks In which to look up the law and decide the matter enroperly. Mr. Shea and Mr. Gibbons both consented to this ex tension. If Nesbltt wins all the police officer who have been fined for the past tlx years will begin suit to recover the amount of their fines: and th city attorney will have enough to do to earn hi salary this year.

' ; ELECTRIC FIRE SERVICE. From the Times-Herald. As the old hand-worked fire engine gave way to steam, the steam fire engine must succumb to the universal wave of elec tricity. The day cannot be distant when horses drawing t.OUO pound of steam ap paratus shall no longer rush panting through the streets, to be followed by an equally Irlensled attendant carrying colls of India rubber. An electrical fire extin guishing olant must be one of the inc idents of the commg year. r.mpioymentor electricity for extinguish ing tires has become a more imperative iH-ed by reason of the increased height of buildings. The tall bulldring has come to stay. Engineering appears to have Solved successfully the problem of foundations, and rm.tHllurKy and mechanics have com bined for .the production and accommoda tion of building material lighter, stronger aiul more durable than any of the past. Another cause hastcuilug the disappear ance of the clumsy steam lire engine I the cumbering of i!ty streets with public and private vehicles for personal convenience and trallie. While underground nmd ele vated intrnmural romds will relieve In time the congestion of the surface ot cities, nothing can prevent an Increased occu pancy of the streets on which buslines Is concentrated. The rush of a- fire engine through a thoroughfare of a modern city Is attended with danger to the bravo men at tached to It. and to citizens who, riding, driving or a-foot, may be in its path. Kleo trlelty Itself has added muiny perils to public ways, and it Is only lit that elec tricMy should furnish a successor to the fire (iiglne, climlmitlng It altogether, or so modifying the lyiiw as radically to reduce Its rost. Its emlwrrasranents and its diffi culties The simplest mode, it would appear, by which elect rlety can be used for the. ex tinguishment of fire Is communication of a eturemt at will from a city electrlcnl plant to hydrants at frequent Interval, to which, from adjacent places of storage, the necessary piping can be promptly at tached. That tl' w41l ultimately be done cannot be doubted. Stationary electrical lira extinguishers are no longer novel. Science will undoubtedly supply great manufactories as well aa municipalities with an electrical fire extinguishing ap paratus equally simple, and more flexible within a comparatively short time. THE WORLD IS HEALTHIER,, From the Mail and Express,. Science In recent years has done much to inuke the world a heulthk-r place to live In, and the average of human life has in creused in conseuueiice. Science will con tlnuo to do Its part toward still further in creasing the average. If we will but lake advantage of every opportunity dt offers for postponing illsenso and decay. Sta tistics or the death rate Jn both Eurojiean and American oitles prove tlila to be true. In a quarter of a century the rate per ton thousand In Iiondon has fallen nearlv SO per cent.; In Berlin it has fallwi 37 per cent, in twenty-one years, while Paris the rate has decreiiied very ma terially In fifteen years. The rate In the cities of the I'mlted States compares fa vorably with these figures, and the result is duo quite aa .much to Improved sanitary conditions as .to advance in medical sci ence, although the hitter has inude tin precdmted strides during the past decade. Pure water and perfect drainage are the greatest foes of dKaease ami decay, and New York's mllllotm In behalf of each have been well spent. The boy of toduy knows more of physical development and hygiene than the old man of a generation ago. ,Tho steady growth of athletic exercises anioi.ig both men iind women In the midst of Improved conditions promises not onlv longer life to the present generation, but greater strength nnd longer life to the generation to come.

The story when first told seemed Incredible, but In vestigation shows it to be true. The farm ers In the neighborhood have dug out the season's potatoes, and in consequence the bugs of the reslon have dug out, too, and have fled- from 4he bnrrcn fields to the railway tracks. What they find to eat on the roadbed Is a mystery, but It Is ob vious that they, seek it for the advan tages It offers to their locomotive powers. During a great part of the day those lying on 'the roadbed enjoy a siesta, but being of a rather fashionable turn they recover about 4 o'clork and begin their prom enade.
