GARBONDALE.
ITho Cnrbondalo correspondence of The

Mr. C. II. Munn, Snlem avenue and
Church street, to whom news items may
lie addressed, All complaints as to Ir
regular delivery, etc., should bo made to
W. J. Ilobnrts, news agent.
STRBBT COMMITTED RUI'ORT.
It Will Nuggpst .11 any Nocdcd Changes
About the City.
The street committee, ns tho result
of Its recent annual tour, Is preparing
a leport for submission to councils,
which will suggest many needed Im
provements. Among the other places tho commit
tee Inspected Columbia heights, the
residents of which have petitioned for
a Burface drain. It will report favor
ably on the petition, with the distinct
understanding that the drain shall be
for surface water only. Tho proposed
sewer could not bo used for slops as
there Is no main sewer In the vicinity
to which it could be connected.
The committee will al-xi recommend
thnt the "White" bridge on Pike street
be repainted; also for tho construction
of a now bridge near tho Ontario Ji.
Western White bridge station. One of
the most Important measures decided
upon was the fencing of that part
of Cemetery street near what was for
merly thu coal schutes of Stroud ft
Chamberlain. This has been a danger
ous point for years and the stout guard
rail which Is to be erected may pre
vent some huivy bills of damage
against the city.
Another leading matter thnt was dis
cussed and will be reported la the
opening of Laurel street. It Is under
stood that the residents along tho
thmoughfnre are willing to move back
their fences for the much needed Im
provement and to that end an ordi
nance will probably be soon Introduced
Into councils.
AtTOR THE POLES AOAIN.
Common Council Proposes (i 91 Tnx
mid Paint lor iiucli.
Mr. Lewis introduced a resolution
Into common council last evening, in
structing the city solicitor to draw up
an ordinance requiring the corpora
tloi.s having poles In the city to pay a
tax of one dollar per annum on each
pole und to have the poles painted.
After a little discussion which showed
the body to be In favor of such a
measure the resolution was adopted.
A resolution Instructing city clerk
to have the committee list printed,
without delay was adopted.
An ordinance requiring Hag walks
on Washington street from K. J.
Watt's property to Seventh avenue,
was referred to the street committee.
A Seranton attorney asked by letter
for the return of $75 tax paid by T.
Lynch, of Seranton, for the privilege
of selling clothing in the Metropolitan
link. The tax ordinance, he contends,
was based on an act which has been
declared unconstitutional.
A large amount of concurrent busl
nes was disposed of.
FINAN'CIAL FAILURE.
Something About Home Tnlcnt Opera
nnd the .Hi Undo in Particular.
The Mozart band cleared less than
HftJ' dollars on the three performances
of the "Mikado." This Is not a case,
either, In which the professionals run
off with the lion's share. The arrange
ment made with Mr. nnd Mrs. liiuni
mel for putting on the opera was very
favorable to tho band, more so than
any similar contract ever subscribed
to by a local organization.
Patronage was small. Tho three au
diences would have made Just one big
house. Had weather had something to
do with It and lack of personal work
at the ticket end, more. Comic operas
cannot be made financially successful
unless tho sale of tickets Is vigorously
pushed In advance.
Artistically, the "Mikado" compared
favorably with previous efforts. Hut
it takes tho presentation to determine
tho merit nnd then It Is too late to get
tho money.
An elfurt is being made to have the
opera given again Wednesday evening,
and present Indications are that It will
succeed.
TUG WAR AT HOME.
Hostilities ArlKO Over the Subicct of
American I'mmvcsh.
John Chester Peck, of Simpson, is
patriotic John Chester Is also pug
nuclous at times. Saturday evening
It seems he was both. While making
the rounds of the places at which
Slmpsonlnns get a "load on" he ran
across one John Walk, an Austrian by
birth.
The two Johns fell to nrgulng and
then to lighting. John, of Austria,
wouldn't for a minute allow the claim
of John Chester that America could
whip the boots off of Spain. In fact
he maintained that the dons are better
men than Uncle Samuel's nephews.
John Chester who Is mighty in his
wrath could stand no such talk and
proceeded to show Wnrk of what stuff
lighting Americans nre made. He It Is
claimed used a stone on the Austrian's
head and soon had him under sub
Jectlon. Wark Is now at the hospital.
His Injuries are not serious although
painful.

HVl'NO' ISM IX INDIA.
So Snys This .11 nn Concerning the
Tricks ol .higglers.
From Scottish Nights.
A correspondent writing from India
regarding tho theory thnt tho Jugglers
perform their tricks by "will power,"
says: "During the courso of tho In
dian mutiny I made tho acquaintance
of one ot these gentlemen of India, who
tried to Instruct me how to perform
these tricks. He wild It was all imagin
ary on tho part of tho spectators, ns
ho simply willed that they should sea
those things. Yet I, in common with
western nations, was too atilmnllzcd,
sensunl and materialized by llesh-eut-Ing
nnd consumption of alcohol to re
tain or accept any dctj. spiritual teach
ing. "The most exciting performance that
ho gave for my nmusoment was the
converting ot n bamboo stick Into a
native servant. Afterward in his nb
sence I tried It on, nnd to my surprise
the same man was before me asking
for instructions. 1 directed him to 1111
tho chatties on tho veranda with water
from tho well In the compound. This
he proceeded to do. When he had filled
them all to overflowing I requested him
to stop. He. however, took no notice
Tif me, nnd went on stolidly bringing m
the water, until, In my excited Imagin
ation, it seemed that the bungalow
would be washed away. Finding that
I could not nrrest or stop his move
ments, he passing through me ns
though I did not exist, I drew my
sword nnd lay In wait for him. Mnlclng
a slash, I apparently cut him In twnln,
when lo! there were two men bringing
in tho water, neither of whom could I
restrain or prevent from doing so.
"I was completely out of my depth,
when I hoard a quiet laugh behind me,
nnd on turning I found It was my In
structor, who held up his right hand
nnd tho two men disappeared, the stick
resuming Its plnco on tho verandn, nnd
to crown nil, there was not the slight
est sign of any water having been
brought in. I excitedly appealed to
him for an explanation. He said that
ho had been present nil tho time, buy
ing willed that ho should be invisible
to me, and that I should Imagine my
self to see and do what I thought had
taken place. In order to prove it, he
nsked mo to step out Into the com
pound, nnd directed my attention to a
huge cavern, which I knew was not
there before. As I entered a number
of huge elephants and camels Issued
from It In n continuous stream, yet I
could not touch one of them. They np
parently passed over mo as though I
did not exist. He ngitln raised his
hand and the cavern and nnimals dis
appeared, and there wns no Indication
of any exodus of any kind."
