TOWN TOPICS.
The stories of t'liaiiRcs In the ulllee of
the superintendent of the Delaware anil
Hudson company have been tevlved,
and thin time Superintendent Mnnvltlc,
aecordliiR- to the sosslp of the town In
railroad circles, too, Is to bo elevated
to the pnttltlou of sehcrul miiniiRer of
the road, to succeed Flrsl Vice-President
Horace (!, Youiir, who. in turn,
will become president, the successor of
11. M. Olyphanl, who Is now at the head
of the l'oad.
There has been no olllclal eonllrina
tlou or this story, an there Is the same
reticence in tills Instance ns before,
when there were reported chanR-cs In
the olllce of Superintendent Manville.
The story, however, has been about,
town for several days mid has been
variously discussed. The belief Is that
It Is true, and so fur as tin Rcneral
opinion rocs It is a certainty that Mr.
.Manvlllo h: to be honored with a pro
motion. In this case the wisli Is tho
rather or the thotiRbt, for it would be
a source of satisfaction and dcllclu to
I'nrbonilullans to have one of their
townsmen Riven such recognition.
The dlscre.'l .!lenco of the company's
olllclal' does not justify any more than
speculation, but It calls attention nunc
closely to some of tin recent doiiiRS of
the Delaware and Hudson company,
the most Imuoi'lmit of which Is the
buildlii.e; of IiIr; eon' storage pockets at
Honpsdiile. Work on which will prac
tically revolutionize the handling of
coal hound for tidewater over this road
Is now in proRress, nnd when the pro
ject is completed, Iloncsdale will prob
ably have the IiIrrcsI coal slori'tRe
point in the world.
There were many considerations to
impell the company to tin construction
of theM' storage pockets, but chief
amoiiR them was the economy of cars
and h.iuliiR.'. ItrlWIy. all the throtiRh
trains, that ii. the coal destined for
Xew York i 'ty, i an be made up at
Ilonesdale. There would be no neces
sity for haulliiR- ears bail; from tide
water to the mines. They could stop
at Honesilale and be loaded from the
pockets. No time would he lost in roIiir
over tin mountain, and there would lie
less diiiiRer of a scarcity of cars, in the
case of an increased demand of coal, as
the pockets would always be kept illled.
These are a few of the advantiiu'cs of
the proposed order of thinps
II vtmilri have reouired a Renins to
count the box that was sounded by Ihe
alarm beP hi the city hall tower at the
time of the Ii: c on South Main street
last night. First. Hi sounded: then there
wen; two tans, followed by :!.": two
iiRiiin, anil then a reuular tattoo of
raps.
It is needless to say that the failure
of the bell to respond was due to the
fact that the lire alarm system is being
i.crI'H ted by not beiiiR lesled dally, as
is necessary, if its highest clllclency he
n.i.ilntained. There is no daily test, ami
the eonseiiuenee is an imperfect sys
tem, which Is certain to cause disaster,
if It is not kept In workiiiR order.
The Tribune has pointed out, from
lime to lime, the necessity for a daily
test, and has explained the when and
why of it. ('ouni'ils, with whom Hie
remedy lies, while recoRiilzliiR the ne
cessity, have taken no action, but have
wasti'd valuable time in discussing
whose business it. Is to turn in a daily
test alarm. The Impression seems to be
among' the members of common coun
cil, parucui. :';, that it is tin duty of
C'ltv Klectrlcu a (lilleran to make the
lest, anil tho. same nieinbers have
wasted several wcck-i in wondering
who should do this work.
For the information and euliglilment
of these membeis. The Tribune will say
that Mi-, fiiller.in's duties do not com
prehend the daily test. lb is being
compensated for looking after the ur
rauRenicitt and swllcli-board in the
city hall, but no provision is made for
ill.-; going about from box to box each
flay sending In an alarm.
I.asl night's perfoi mnuct' of t: sys
tem ought to convince councils thai ac
tion nuts! be taken, as the safety of ihe
community demands.
The remedy Is the compensallng of
Mr. tilllermi. who is the most capable
person for the extra work o singing In
Ihe alarm

AMID CAMP LIFE.

Huso parish hall lust night spout an
Interesting and enjoyable evening
with Ihe l!ev. Father Daly, of St. Pat
rick's Cathedral, Xew York city, amid
sreneii of camp life In the late Spanish-American
campaign.
Father Duly was chaplain of the Sixty-ninth
regiment of New York eliy,'

mory of the leglniont to Camp lllack,
then to Chlciiniaugnu pari;, to Tampa,
Florida, ending with Jluntsvllle, Ala
bama, where Ihe regiment was mus
tered out.
My means of a slereopttcon he watt
enabled to unfold the Inner life of tlm
regiment on the Held, and tho humor,
pathos, and the lessons of patriotism
that wero to be learned from these
experiences he happily presented to his
hearers; one lime convulsing them
with laughter, now pulling their very
heart-strings hy the recital of some
pathetic Incident, and again causing
tlp'lr patriotic blood to quicken when
Ii- showed the lessons of love of coun
try that were to he learned by the
phase.! of the campaign (hut he dwelt
on.
Father Daly is pleasingly descrip
tive; lit never soars to heights of elo
iiueiice by his plainness and simplicity,
ills Hashes of humor and versatility;
In reaches his hearers and entertains
them and impresses on them the mes
sage he would leave them.

A BiilHnnt Social Affair Is the Sea
