The minutes of the last meeting were
read and approved.
Mr. Moses presented a petition signed
by ninety-two citizens, mostly property
holders, protesting against the proposed
changing of the curb on Morris street.
To the Hcncrable, the Mat/or rwrt Coitiutts of
the City of Johnstown,
The petition of the undersigned citizens of the
Klftli and sixth wards of the city of Johnstown
respectfully represents:
Thfit the proposed width ,of thejisldewalks
along the line of Morris street In said wards
would involve a largo expenditure of money
not only In the changing of the line of tlio curb"
but In the changing of the artlltclal and natural'
gas connections as also the water, electrlo, and
telephone connections. They therefore 'pray
that lnstca'd of narrowing the Sidewalks along
the line of said streets, some-arrangements be
made whereby the line of the street railway
■sqall be divided and a single track laid along
Mortis street and a single track along somerset
street, In which event there will be no necessity
for a change In the width of the sidewalks.
. Your pertltloners are Informed and believe
that a long period would necessarily elapse be
fore the cnange In the gas connections could be
made, during which period the gas would have
to be entirely shut off and your petitioners de
prived of the use thereof; that If the arrange
ments could be made of running a rail
way on each street, the difficulty now existing
and the expense will be avoided.
Signed by ninety-two petitioners of the Fifth
and Sixth wards.
On motion, tie petition was referred to
the Committee on Highways,
i . A petition calling attention to the bad
condition of Grifflu alley in the Fifteenth
ward. Referred to the Committee on
Highways.
A message from the Mayor was then
read as follows :
MAYOR'S OFFICR, CITY OF JOHNSTOWN.)
April ii, is# i. (
My attention lias been called to tlie condition
ot affairs at the Intersection or center and Rail
road streets. In the Tenth ward,
shortlj before tne consolldaiion of the several
▼ boroughs into the city, an agreement was cffcct-
I ea between 'lie Cambria iron Company and the
jj borough or coneinaugh, whereby to enable the
Company to acquire a compact territory for
1 the erection of a branch of its works, known as
| thoGautler Department, all the'streets, lams
I and highways In tin saldrborongh lying north
| of center street were vacated )except"'tlie upper
end of center, or perhapslt;was called Railroad
| street. Before the vacation, Portage street
eighty feet In width, was the main tlioroughfaie
east and west from Clinton street to the upper
end of the borough. Railroad street was Hfiy
.lectin width to Fenlon street, a short street
connecting Portage and .Railroad from Fenlon
to where the same fell into Portage. Railroad
street extended, as It was called, Is onlv about
thirty feet wide. -to£S>
Now the result Is, that Center street, llfty feet
wide and H inroad street nrty; feci wide, empty
into Railroad street extended, which Is but
1 thirty feet wide. The borough granted the
j Street Railway tho right to lay two lines of
track on H illroad extended. The streot was
100 narrow for one track, and now that It Is the
only outlet of the other two streets, Port
age being vacated, It is simply too narrow and
must be widened ir there Is to be travel upon It.
t When tlie people begin to build In the Eleventh
ward, the outlet will be constantly jammed
The matter was certainly overlooked, and a
• great blunder was committed by the authority
j of tlle borough lunot providing a width of street
sufficient 10 accommodate the ordinary travel,
■ j lo say nothing of the two lines or railway tracks
l | being laid on the connecting line between the
1 oo o thoroughfares mentioned and the Woodvalc
j bridge.
1 recommend the appointment of a Joint coin-
I ralttee of your bodies to act In conjunction with
'he executive, in the endeavor to have the cam
i | hrla Iron Companyjglve a umouutof
k ground toopsnJllatlroadJ streot, at least
samu width that tbe;street ;is above; and below
Hiejpuin' eilledJßallroudJStreef extende 1. ******
j I|K the Company|wlU not yield] the amount of
ground necessary to give a proper width of
i street for an outlet, the council should take lm
mediate act ion to secure by legal process and
j proceedings, the widening of this (Street before
■ buildings ure erected, else a large expense Is
hkely to be Incurred, it is quite probable that
| when the matter is presented to the officials of
j Ihe Cambria Iron Company, they will concede
| the point and huve the street, opened.
. I S \V. HORACE ROSE.
t Moved by Mr, Moses that the matter I e
; referred to tho Committee on Highways.
Amended on mction of .Mr. Kennedy that
it be referred, if the Common Count 11
| concur to a special committee com
posed of Messrs. Moses, Smith, and
Brixncr, to consider the recommendations
contained in the message. Carried as
amended.

The license ordinance was reported faJ
orably by the Fiaance Committee as

The New, :' Cambria " llrlilge Conipl ted.
It would be un-city-like any mote to
refer to the Fifteenth and Sixteenth
wards as Cambria City, and one of ihe
presiding officers iu Counoll recently
made due apology for so doing,
but there is no impropriety in calling the
bridge between flioso wards and the Four
teenth ward the " Cambria " bridge. Ii
is in close proximity to the Cambria Iron
Works, nnd the structure, the place of
which it takes, was always known as the
" Cambria " bridge. Then there is no
name by which it is known, save a cum
b:rsomc circumlocution. Hereafter we
shall call it the Cambria bridge. By
whatever name it is known it is now fin
ished and will be ready for use to-day.
Taken to Jail.
Upon information of Georee Dorean,
colored, before 'Squire Rutledge, Ed.
lieiira and Ambrose Hippie, were arrest
ed on n charge of assault and battery, the
affair having taken place in the Eighth
ward. The fines and costs amounted to
$33.50. Hippie paid his part, but Ream,
in defuult of payment, was taken to jail.
Will be Rebuilt on a New Site.
Workmen are tearing down the pait of
the Woodvale tannery than has becb built
since the flood. It is not yet determined
where the tannery will be rebuilt, but one
thing is settled, it will never be rebuilt on
the old site.

INTERVIEWED MARY ANDERSON.
How a lleporter l'laycd the Fart of a Hell
lioy ami Scored a Heat.
Among the well known men about
town in Brooklyn is Frank Cooper, who
at one time promised to be Bartley Camp
bell's right bower. Mr. Cooper was for
merly a Chicago newspaper reporter,
and it was while acting in that capacity
that he had a very singular adventure.
At the time Mr. Cooper was very young
and very ambitious to shine in liis pro
fession, and when Mary Anderson, who
was then the craze of the theatrical
world, reached town, he thought he saw
his chance to ascend the first few rungs
of the ladder of fame. lie would inter
view the noted actress.
This decision was reached in an instant,
but many days passed before the project
was put into execution. Miss Anderson's
stepfather, Dr. Hamilton Griffin, was
keeping his precious charge far from the
interviewer in those days. Mr. Cooper
finally decided to apply for the honorable
position of bell boy in the hotel at which
the Anderson party stopped. His youth
ful appearance helped him and he soon
donned the appropriate uniform. Then
he lay in wait for a ring from Miss Ander
son's room. For over twelve hours he
dashed about on errands and carried
pitchers of ice water and glasses filled
with something stronger before Miss
Anderson made up her mind that she
wanted anything. Then the little flap
covering (lie nuinlierof her room dropped
with a click. Cooper had his eye on it,
and almost before the clerk could cry
"Front!" he was at the desk.
"Number So and So!" said the clerk,
"quick."
The messenger needed no urging, but
flew up the stairs. His magnet wanted a
scuttle of coal and down Cooper rushed.
The next minute lie was knocking at Miss
Anderson's door with one hand and hold
ing the bucket with the other. Once in
side lie made for the open grate, but in
his nervousness he spilled most of the
coal on the carpet. Then he sat down in
the midst of the ruin he had wrought and
looking up found the actress standing
over liiin.
"What do you think of the future of
the stage?" hurst from his lips.
Miss Anderson was impressed with tho
humorous side of tliO situation at once
and began laughing. This reassured the
disguised reporter, and in a few minutes
he was carrying on a discussion with the
actress on matters pertaining to her art.
This lasted for some time, Miss Ander
son expressing great surprise at the
knowledge displayed by a bell boy, and
Cooper got an interview that all the old
hands in town had despaired of being
able to procure. How he got out of the
room, he says, he never knew, but when
he reached the office he threw up his job
and rushed for his desk in the city de
partment of a local paper. The next day
his interview and a description of tit
scene appeared. It was the talk of the
hour. It was copied far and wide, and
the author was assured that his future
would be a bright one.
BThc next day he paid for his temerity.
His chief, the late Samuel Medill, a
brother of the present owner of the pa
per in question, was so tickled at the
"beat" he had obtained that he insisted
that Cooper should meet Dr. Griffin. So
that night he took the youthful imposter
down to the hotel, and, sending for Dr.
Griffin, formally presented him. For a
full minute Dr. Griflin looked the re
porter straight in the eye, and then,
drawing back his hand, struck him in
the face. The blow was a hard one, and
Cooper reeled and would have fallen to
the floor had not Mr. Medill caught him.
Before anything could be done Dr. Grif
fin had turned and left the room, and
Mr. Cooper never saw him again.—New
York Times.
A Sentence Containing the Alphabet.
Noticing in one of your recent issues a
short paragraph relative to the shortest
sentence in the English language con
taining all the letters of the alphabet, I
would like to submit the following:

The above sentence contains thirty
four letters and ten words only.—Cor.

The Flow?r Industry.
If the practical business man believes
that the business of flowers is an incon
liderable one, and that they are used
shiefly by people who are getting mar
ried or getting out of the world altogeth
er, let him step into a rose market in
Twenty-third street some afternoon be
tween 3 and 4 o'clock. When he reaches
there first lie will find everything about
lis quiet as it well could be. By 4 o'clock,
when the carls drive up filled with boxes
of flowers shipped from out of town rose
farms and flower- farms, just arrived at
piers anil railroad depots by express,
everything immediately takes oh a very
confused and animated appearance. A
dozen clerks and the proprietor appeal
simultaneously from nobody knows
where, and the boxes, containing layer
upon layer of baskets filled with all va
rieties of roses, picked early that morn
ing, are unpacked. In packing, the roses
are carefully placed with the first layer
of stems running one way, reversing the
order on t lie next layer, and so oil to the
top of the basket. By this time the room
is filled witli men anxious to procure the
first pick and the choicest variety, and
they bargain as closely, with as total an
oblivion to all their fragrance and beauty,
as if the goods were the most ordinary
clotli or cotton.—New York World.

A great part of Asia and nearly three
fourths of Africa is a sealed hook to us
moderns. The explorations of Stanley,
and those who preceded him, are mere
spider tracks in the desert, and our best

In Asia there is Thibet and Turkestan,
and in Africa the great desert of Sahara
to be explored. We know almost nothing
of Borneo, Papua or Madagascar, and
thousands of islands in the Pacific ocean
are still unexplored.
Great tracts of Australia have never

In the far north is Greenland. Baffin

Wo iii cii Writ cm in France.
A Paris correspondent says: The most
discouraging obstacle the American wo
man has to contend with in Paris is the
great number of English and French
writers employed by the American press,
while it is impossible for an American
writer to be recognized by foreign jour
nals. One ol' the most rabid anti-Ameri
cans, in his personal feelings, receives
thousands of dollars a year from Ameri
can magazines and journals. No woman
can live by her pen who has not a regu
lar salary. To attempt it is one of the
most hazardous and vexatious undertak
ings. Haphazard correspondence is cast
ing bread on the water that in nine cases
out of ten brings back—the manuscript.
Mrs. Hooper has a stated salary, which
enables her to live in cozy apartments and
enjoy Parisian life with comfort. Her
daughter has studied for the stage, and
last June created the role in a plu> which
Mrs. Hooper has written, called "Helen's
Inheritance."
A Marvelous East Indian Cannon.
It is 171 feet long, 5 feet and 6 inches
around tho muzzle, with a caliber 18
inches across. By the natives it is called
Jaun Kushall, or the destroyer of life.
History does not record the date of its
casting, which the superstitious people
attribute to the gods, doetas or divinities.
Persian inscriptions on this great death
dealer prove that it has been captured in
some war with that country, but the let
ters and characters are so nearly oblit
erated that the date cannot bo ascer
tained. The cannon has rested for ages
between two mammoth trees of the pee
pul species, which have grown so firmly
around it that it could not bo removed
without felling one or both of them.
Tradition says that the cannon has been
fired once, and that the hall was impelled
twenty-four miles!— St. Louis Republic.
MlUn't Wnut Millet to .See 11.
S. It. Callaway, a prominent officer of
the Grand Trunk railroad, was, some
years ago, connected with a western
road, and necessarily spent much of his
time where his western interests lay.
Out there he met Millet, the artist. Mr.
Callaway and the painter came together
on a hunting trip and became quite inti
mate. which resulted in the railway man
inviting the artist to make a visit at his
home. The invitation was accepted and
the two started homeward. Just before
reaching the city where he lived Mr.
Callaway went into a telegraph office
and wired to his wife: "Millet, the ar
tist, is coming home with me for a few
days' visit; take that chromo out of the
dining room."—Chicago Herald.
A Pretty Parlor Kxperl men t.
A very simple apparatus for obtaining
an electric spark is made by a German
physicist. Round the centre of a common
lamp chimney is pasted a strip of tin foil,
and another strip pasted from one end of
the chimney to within a quarter of an
inch of this ring. Then a piece of silk
is wrapped round a brush, and the inte
rior of the chimney is rubbed briskly.
In the dark a bright electric spark may
be seen to pass from one piece of tin foil
to the other each time the brush is with
drawn from the chimney. Many other
experiments can be tried with this ap
paratus.—New York Telegram.
English Fraud Coffee.
English tea is delicious, but their cof

coffee sold in the shops is as fine as dust.
If you ask the grocer to grind it coarse

drinkable by making in a French coffee
pot by percolation. Made in the Amer

A BROKEN HEARTED B'AR.
TRUE STORY OF THE DEMISE OF
JASPER GRIMDLEY'S PETS.
A Joke with u Water Barrel Brought He
talfation with a Dutch Oven ami Led to
I'rerAedltated Suicide by Drowning—The
Account* Differ Slightly.
According to the stoby-current among
the laymen of this pleasant region, a
year-old bear belonging to Jasper Grind
ley, a bear killer, bad a light with an
other year-old bear, also the properly of
Jasper, the result of which light was Lite
death of the last mentioned l>ear. The
victor made a break for the woods, and,
in taking a short cut, attempted to cross
Gravely's mill pond 011 the ice. The ice
was too thin to support the weight of the
fleeing hear ami broke beneath hint. He
disappeared beneath the ice, and was not
seen again until his dead body was car
ried down by the water to the tail race,
and so on to the water wheel of the saw
mill. There it became jammed in the
puddles and stopped the mill. When the
body of bite unfortunate hear was re
moved from the water wheel it was in
had shape.
Sucli was the story that was current
about the death of Jasper Grindley'stwo
bears; and it was tragic enough until
Jasper came in with his nccount of the
affair.
DUCKED HIS MATE.
"Them two young b'ars," said Jasper,
"heat all creation for smartness, an' it
was jest that smartness of their'n that
done 'em both up. They was always
playin' tricks on one another, an' one
day one of 'em was tnkin' a leetle tramp
around the house. He come to a bar'l
that stood at one corner o' the house,
half full o' rain water. He didn't know
what was in the bar'l, o' course, hut
thinkin' that mebbe there was sumpin' in
it that mowt pan out a heap o' fun fer
him, he riz up 011 his hind feet, an' put
tin' his forepaws 011 top o' the bar'l,
looked over into it. Not hein' anything
but water in the bar'l, the chances is that
the little cuss'd ha' got down ag'in an'
guile 011 lookin'fer sumpin'else to git fun
out of: hut, jist ex he riz upon the bar'l,
t'other h'ar happened round that way.
He seen his mate nosin' inter the
bar'l, ail' all 011 a suddent it struck liitn
that lie see some fun in the situation. So
what does he do but sneak up ahind
t'other h'ar an' grab him by the hind
legs, an' quicker than I kin tell ye he
lifted him up an' soused him head fust
in the bar'l. While the onfort'nit h'ar in
the bar'l was splutterin' an' kickin' an'
twistin' an' chokin' in the water, the
tricky little sarpint that dumped him in
just danced an' pranced around, an' hol
lered till you'd ha' thort he'd ha' busted,
the thing hit him ez being so consarned
funny. The h'ar in the bar'l would ha'
drownded in short order if I hadn't ben
clus by, an' run an' turned the bar'l up
an' let him out.
A TERRIBLE REVENGE.
"That b'ar never let on that he was
put out by the little trick his mate had
played on him, an' didn't git mad a hit.
Cut I could see that he was kcepin' his
eye skinned for a chance to git even.
An' there's where I orter lcep' my eye
skinned to prevent anything serious, but
I never thort about things ever turnin'
out the way they did.
"That big Dutch oven o' mine stands
in the back o' the yard jist ez it did ez
my ol' pop built it fifty year ago. The
door is alius open except when we're
usin' the oven, which haint more'n wunst
a week. One day a couple of weeks ago
I noticed that the door was shet, but I
didn't think anything wrong till I see
that there was only one o' the b'ars
around, an' he was terrible oneasy, an'
kep' hangin' 'round theoven, whinin' an'
cryin' ez if his heart'd break. Then I
went and opened the oven door. Inside
o' the oven lay t'other ba'r. He was
dcader'n a macker'l. I pulled him out.
Ho had been suffocated till he died.
There was only one way to explain it.
The b'ars had been in the habit o' crawl
in' in the oven an' iayin' there, one at a
time, Ihinkin' it was bang up fun. Now
the b'ar that had been dumped in the
bar'l o' water watched his chance, an'
when t'other b'ar dumb in the oven he
just sneaked upan'clapped the door shet
011 him. 1 wasn't there to let him out, an'
the consokences was that he pegged out
slick an' clean.
SELF DESTRUCTION,
From the way the live b'ar acted I
know'd that he know'd jist what his trick
had ended in, an' he took onorfui to see.
lie howled an' whined an' hollered, an'
somehow couldn't git over it. He took
to wanderin' over to the neighbors ez if
he was lookin' fer his dead mate, an' they
told me that if I didn't keep him home
he'd git a ball in some day. So I put a
rope around his neck an' tied t'other end
of it to an old plowsheer that was knock
in' 'round the yard. He could drag the
plowsheer about, but couldn't drag it fur.
llut he kep' up his mournin' fer his mate,
an' it was tetchin' to see him. 1 thot, o'
course, that he'd git over it bimeby, or
I'd ha put him outen his misery.
"One day las' week Sol Tift come to
my house an' says:
" 'That b'ar o' your'n,' says he, 'is a
cortion. I jist met him walkin' over
to'ards the mill pond, carryin' his plow
sheer under his arm ez handy ez I'd
carry three pound o' pork.'
"That skeered me. I dug over to'ard
the mill pond ez fast ez I could go. I
got there quick enough, but I couldn't
see nothin' o' the b'ar. I walked up
around the pond, an' what should I come
on to but the b'ar, standin' on the ice an'
breakin' a hole through it with the heavy
plowsheer. I see what he was up to at
wunst, but afore I could get to him he
had the hole made big enough, an' down
through ho plunked like a muskrat. I
waited, but I never see him ag'in. The
poor little cuss was jist wore out with
remorse fer what ho had done to his
mate an' had committed suicide com
plete an' deliberate ez it had ever been
committed sence the world started!" —
