sehedule time this season when coun
cils took action looklns to the tttinlnK
on of the watet, and when the watet
was turned on the tioubles of the
cltv ensineer besun The loiintnlns at
either end of the city wete sent off on
their pi rand of bonoflttlns humunit,
but thete'.s a dlffeient htoi to i elate
about the paik tountuinv, Flint, theie
was some nilsunderstandlnK about
whether water was to be tinned on
in the drlnkltiR places foi hot.-es onl,
or both that and the fountains that
fupplles the thltsty public. The iour.
cllmanlc rcoUitlon i-ald tho ttotiRh
only, but when the clt rnslneer com
menced woik to cfliij out this Idea,
one of the councilmen Intel ioed and
dedaied that the watei should be tu n
de on In both places. To be sun of
hli siound the city eiiKlneei held off
for a few das, until Monday nlKht's
meetlns: of Common council, when he
consulted the councilmen who intomieil
ed him that the rc-olutlon meant jut
what It h.iicl, "tin n the water on to
supply the troughs " Mru while the
puhllc clamoi to tin n on the water
fciew loudci and loudei.
Yesteidu. the city eiiKlneei- dliettcd
operations to lommeme at tlie con
nertlons foi the fountain In the ii.uk,
but he mil, consirteiably ch.iBiinfd
when the water was net (lowing to
find that theie was a leak somewheie
in the supply pipe. Tho iiom dining
the winter caused the pipe to buist,
and Instead otthe stieam going upward
tluough the fountain, It llowerl fiom
the base Opeiatlons wcie then ceas

In The drinking lountaln In front of
the paik was slen attention In tho
meatlme. Last eai this lountaln was
supplied by the waste watei fiom the
park fountain ThU jeai it was In
tended to hae a direct supply, by
connecting the fountain supply pipe
with the main water pipe. i;.(awitlons
weie made about the fountain, hut
Just aftci tho men united to con
nect the pipes. i;nslncei FiUk. of
the Consolidated Water company i ame
on the scene, and Hi inly insisted on
a meter being Installed to measuie
the water that would pass thiough
the fountain The company last vcar
estimated the tiuantlty ot water used,
hut this year such an nnaiifiement
would not sufflce, Mr. Fiick emphat
ically said, and he lefused to allow the
connection to be made unless the city
complied with the oidei
To be plainer the city engineer found
he was up "against It," no matter how
he surveyed the siound. The fountain
is so located that there Is absolutely
no room foi n metei and tho only
course was to oidei It to be mocd
a few fet in oider to accommodate tho
measuring device that the watet com
pany flimly and resolutely inflated on
having installed.
Argument with the water company
official, was as useless as piotcsts
against the "continued hgh tempeia
ture" of the weathei toiecaster. and the
city engineer made a lrtue of neces
sity, and began to devise a means of
meeting the water company' wishes
and law, However, he Is still flguiing
but It appears that the only court e Is
to move the fountain a few feet, thcic
by making loom for the deice that so
faithfully looks after the inteiests of
the water company
"Whateved plan will be followed, It
will mean an additional outlay ot
twenty-flvo or thirty doling, which is
quite a sum In the eyes of the econo".
mlsti in councils It Is possible, too
that 'With the meter Installed, tho ex
penso of maintaining the fountain will
he gi eater than last year, when the
waste water from the paik fountain,
instead of being dischaiged Into tho
sewor, was piped and sent thiough the
fountain outside, the one that Is now
causing the wony and tiouble. This

Montally Unbalanced.
Frank Konyo the llrle section hand
who Jumped fiom the Kile "ller" nt

day. The Injuiy which Keyna leclvcd nf
fected the brain Hnd he began to act
qucerly and does nat appear to be any
better. He became testless this week
and asked to be allowed to go to his
home. While he was not relched of his
mental trouble, physically he was all
light, so the staff gave way to his ie
quest and he went to his home on tho

Kcyno left the hospital once before,
a few days after being leclvcd there,
but was taken back by his fiiends on
the same day.
GOOD BALL PLAYING.
This Article Is What the Crescent
Team Is Furnishing Those Days.
Only Ono Defeat, but This Was
Redeemed in Sunday's Trouncing
to Scranton Team,
In the Ciescent base ball team, Cat
bondale Is fittingly lepiesented in
amateur base ball, and the imputation
which this city has In this alley Is
being well sustained by this otganlza
tioti, CarbondHle has alwnja been super
ior to Scianton In amateur base ball
and ecn the most partisan enthus
iasts in the Uleitilc City weiewlll
Ing to concede this. The most lccent
acknowledgment comes fiom .leiome
1'ariett, the base ball wiltci foi the
Tiuth. who, in his leport of the game
at Lodoie on July 4, saj.s. "An addi
tional cause foi delight was tho fact
that yesterdny was the Hist time that
a Sunnton team emerged vitiations
In a base ball game with a C.tibon
d.ile team." This tiiumph was bhoit
lled and tho ilpcnlng hopes of the
hcranton enthusiasts for a continua
tion of the units of victory sulfeied
u withering blight by the actually
mean act of the Ciesccnts on Sundax.
In trouncing the team that came up
fiom the Klectiic City to add to the
achievements at Lake J.odoie on the
Fouith. The Tiuth'h base ball writer
laid It was the magnificent pitching
of drlllln that did the tilck at Lake
Lodoie, but on Sunday It was the
magnificent hitting of the euncs of
this same (it Kiln, the mugnlllcent
pltchct, that won the game tor Car
hondale. C.riflln'.s pitching might have
been ' like unto bullets emanating
fioin a toil, so tenllli was speed,"
nccoidlng to biothei Pariett, but thU
bullet business was as easy tor tho
Caibondale sluggeis as picking out a
Wllkos-lJ.uie man In u ciowd on
show day. Befoie the fouith Inning
was oei. It was sixes" and "seens"
with til lllln, and he had to bo taken
out ot the box. Sunday's letot,
theicfoie, emphasizes the stiength of
the CiCMcnts and 'twill seie as a
check-rein on the met -enthusiastic
candidates for base ball hunots fiom
the town down the alley.
The Ctescents, ns stated befoie, hae
lost only one game this e.ir, and
this Is the one that tho misguided
joutlu fiom Scianton took by chance;
and It will ho only self-appic elation
ten the members to pioclalm that they
pin pose to keep the number of defeats
just wheio It Is.
Manager Fox has not decided what
team will be here on Sunday, as he
has heen Hooded with challenges fiom
Scranton, fiom manageis who aie
eager to see and leant how the game
should Iip plajed, which It Is In Car
hondale. The most taoiable will be
accepted, and duo announcement will
be made thiough the papets,
Smith, the pitcher ot the Ciesccnts,
is de eloping into a cleei twliler, and
