The new hose nozzle which Is being tested by the Crystal Hose company, was Invented by Chief Aungst, of the Allentown FIro department, and em bodies two ideas that cover trouble some points In the ordinary nozzle. One Is the disastrous delay caused In making a twin stream from one hose. The old way was to shut off the force of water entirely and then make the connection. With the Aungst noz zle this delay Is done away with. The connection is made while the water Is on and it Is not necessary to reduce th force of the stream playing on the fire when another hose Is being at tached. Thu new nozzle Is a little over two feet in length and is broader for the first foot from tho hose than the hose Itself. In this first foot of nozzle there is a Joint whers the second hose may bo connected. When a single stream Is used a three-faced valve with a T on the opposite side closes the Joint opening and the fcecond hose can be attached while the stream Is still play ing on the fire. A turn of the valve re leases the water and the turn connec tion Is In operation. Another feature of the new nozzle is an arrangement whereby a spray to protect firemen fiom smoke can be made.

KINQSTON MAN SEEKINQ DAMAQES Ills Wife, Ho Cinims, Was Perman ently Injured by Tripping on nn Uneven Sidewalk in Front of tho Conway House in 1801 Skirmish Between Attorneys in tho Bontu Cnsos" Constnblcs Feo Hill De cision Appealed. Kour city cases and the Prltchard case occupied the time of common pleas yesterday. The former were tried be fore Judge Edwards. In the first case the city was plaintiff and two Swetland street property holders, John Frank and August Seamans, were defendants. The city sought to enforce collection on municipal liens directed against tho defendants' properties for gutter ing done by a city ordinance. Ex- Judge Stanton tried for a non-suit on the grounds that tho lien was defective as it had been issued from the court of an alderman who he claimed had no Jurisdiction, and again because there Is no act of assembly permitting a city to provide for gutters by ordinance. Being overruled In these points of law, he made the contention that the work has not been done In accordance with the specification and the Jury after be ing out a short time returned a verdict for the, defendant. The second case was one wherein the city was defendant and Christopher Smith, of Kingston, for himself and also as executor of the estate of his wife, Amelia Smith, was plaintiff. In 1S91 Mrs. Smith came up from Duryea where the family then lived to do some shopping. Going along Penn avenue, In front of the Conway house, which was then In course of erection, she stumbled, It Is alleged, on an uneven plank walk and sustained injuries to her side and shoulder which made her virtually helpless and caused her In tense pain and suffering until the time of her death three years later. Dam ages In the sum of $5,000 are asked by th'o estate for her personal Injuries and a like amount is demanded by the husband for the loss of his wife's ser vices. E. C. Newcomb and D. J. .Reedy appear for Mr. Smith. City Solicitor Torrey and Assistant City Solicitor D. J. Davis are caring for the defense. BARTHOLD-PRITCHARD CASE. The case of Edwards and Barthold against Mrs. Martha Prltchard was given to the Jury at 3.30 o'clock yes terday afternoon after being on trial the best part of two days. To dis credit the testimony of the experts who gave It as their opinion that the "with Interest" clause was added to the note three or four months after the signa ture was attached, the attorneys for the plaintiff, Hulslander & Alworth, presented documents from the record er's office showing that the note, bear ing the words "with interest" was re corded in November, 1889, not a full month after It was signed and deliv ered. Judge Gunster called another of the Bonta cases Just after the above case went to the Jury and directed that a Jury be empanneled in it despite the protests of ex-Judge Stanton and City Solicitor Torrey of counsel for the de fense, who claimed that Mr. Hlbbs was the Bonta company's attorney and that it was an Injustice to try the case un til he could reach here. Mr. Torrey said he simply represented himself and appeared rather as an officer of the company than its attorney. Judge Stanton disavowed being the Bonta company's representative, say ing he was merely appearing for him self to protect an Interest which he had in the Bonta patents. Mr. Torrey pointed out that it would again be un fair and unjust to allow the case to go to trial with Judge Stanton as the only attorney for the defense, for the reason that Judge Stanton's Interests and those of the Bonta company are likely to be opposed some time or an other. OPPOSED A CONTINUANCE. Mr. Comegys, attorney for the plain tiffs, insisted on going to trial Imme diately saying that Mr. Hlbbs had been duly notified of the time for which the trial was set and he and not the oppo sition should be made to suffer for his failure to be present. Judge Gunster ordered the case to proceed, saying that a Jury could be drawn at least be fore adjournment, and in the morning all hands could be present. The defendants attorneys also want ed to have the cases held over until a final disposition be made of the Hinds case to which all the others are paral lel In every respect. Mr. Comegys was willing to accede to this If the defend ants would enter Into a written agree ment to accept the final finding In the Hinds case as the verdict In all, but this they refused to do.
