ANOTIli:it DAMAGE SLIT. Arab Soys That lie Was Pushed from the Car. The Arabian peddler Who fell from a street car at Maylield Monday has made A serious charge against the conductor of the car, saying that he was pushed off. The peddler says that he got on the car at Jeimyn and paid his fare. He was smoking at the time and the con ductor told him it was against the rules. He accordingly threw the cigar ette away and the conductor went on his rounds collecting the fares, on his return to the platform the conductor pushed against him and knockeJ him off the car into the street, hitting the ground with great force on his head. Ills Injuries at the time seemed seri ous anil the injured man was brought to the Emergency hospital In this city, where he was carred fur. It was at first feared that his skull was fractured hut his Injuries were of a less serious charactt-r. He put the affair Into the hands of an attorney who will at once bring suit against the Ctirbondule Traction com pany. The conductor says that the Arab's tory Is false and that he was drunk at the time and while asleep fell off the car. A CHEEKY TRAMP. Stole Money and Then Iliiys Goods from the Owner. A genuine case of nerve was observed In this cicy this week, and as the result Mrs. David Cushle Is bewailing the loss of her pocketbook with several dollars In It. The victim keeps a bakery shop on the upper part of Belmont street, and had left the front of the building to do some work In the kitchen. She did not return to the store till she was attracted by a knocking on the show case. She went to wait on the cus tomer and once and was somewhat sur prised to find him a knight of the road. He asked for bread, cakes and other things which would taste good to a hungry tramp. In payment he hand ed Mrs. Cushle a $5 bill which some what surprised her. as bills of such denomination do not often find their way to the pockets of the wanderers. She gave the change, however, and the fellow walked out of the store. Soon after Mrs. Cushle looked for her pocketbook, which she had lert be hind a box of candy In the show case. The pocketbook was not there though, and she soon came to the conclusion that the tramp had taken It. The matter, together with a descrip tion of the thief, was given the police, but no trace of him has yet been found. . NO SEWER THIS YEAR. The Kxeavatlng Will Not Be Started I'ntil Spring. There will probaihly 'be, nothing done to the sewer extension until spring, as the season is now s.0 far advanced that It would be impracticable to begin it. It has been suggested that the sewer fihould be put In the bed of the river, as the Delaware and Hudson want pay for the light of way. This would not do, however, as the cost would 'be greatly Increased and there aie many other reasons why such a course would not be successful. If the sewer should become stopped up Don't Get Excited Was what the doctors told me, and they aid I mutt not tun, on account of fiat tcrlng of my heart.
