Ono of tho dealers In second-hand books In Washington has unearthed a curious old document In tho shnpo of a subscription list, written on a long parchment and bearing date 1774, In which George Washington, Charles Car roll, William Ellory and several other notable Americana bind themselves by their autograph signatures to pay tho various Bums set opposlto their names toward tho expense ot cleaning tho bed of tho Potomac river. This Is said to be a word picture of tho young king of Servla, aged sixteen, who 1b to becomo n full-blown king in two years: "Ho is a lanky, pale-faeed lad, who wears his hair cropped close In Pronch fashion. Ho has his mother's largo, fine eyes, but his forehead is low, and ho docs not seem to bo possessed of tho Bamo shrewdness and quickness of his father. Ho has had a miserable education, and leads a solitary life, without having a Binglo plaything." It Is said on reliable British authority that there Is but ono British officer left who fought at Waterloo, and all pro tondcrs aro warned to ring off and die as modest folks as they wore born. This ono officer Is Lieut. William Ilowett, of tho Itiflo Brigade, born In 1795. Of lata ho has been in falling health. Ho lives at Southampton. CENTS PER YARD FOE a good homo-made rug carpet.

Tho Board of Directors of City Trusts Return to Town and InBpoot Neighboring Col llorios. A special mooting of tho Borough Coun cil was held last night, Messrs. Gable, Lamb, Wurm, llopkins, Phalon, Bet- teridgo, Moaklor, Holman, Amour and J limes being present. Chairman Uablo stated that tho mooting had been called for tho purposo of taking some action in rogard to the Lithuanian celebration to take placo next Sunday "It appears Council was a littto hasty in tho matter," he said "and we havo come to tho conclusion to rocon idor tho mattor." Mr. Lamb moved that tho action takon by Council last Thursday evening in ro gard to restraining tho Lithuanian con Erogation from having bands and drum corps in tho proposed parado bo rescinded Sir. Wurm seconded tho motion. Mr. Lamb tbon spoko in favor of the motion and said, "Wo havo simply blundered. "Wo havo mado a mistake When I votod for that motion I believed it aos a mattor of law. I havo sinco found that there is no law to back us in tho mat tor. It was not on account of what ha boon told to the public that it was a matter of church, or against any particular church, and I defy any man to say that any action of mine could be considered bigoted It was tho farthest thought from my mind to tako stand on account of roligion. But it is a mistake Had wo consulted tho solicitor his advico would havo been differ ont, but tho matter camo up so suddenly and wo wore so busy with tho water and "X" rail questions wo didn't give tho mat ter tuulciont thought. It would bo woll to have tho solicitor state tho law." Borough Solicitor Pomeroy thon spoko and donned tho law on public nuisances IIo said, "So far as tho question of law is concerned there is no law on tho statute books of tho state of Pennsylvania that prohibits tho uso of music upon the public streets on Sunday. Ia fact wo havo lit. or no statutory law in this state as to what maybe termed a public nuisance Whetlior A certain thing done is a public nuisance is a mattor of fact and not a matter of law. Tho courts of law have laid down in I'hil adolphia, und the Supremo Court has coi Armed it. that oven tho crying of news papers on tho sir cola on Sunday is a public nuisance if the people find tt so. That is, if it disturbs tho public Sabbath, or in terferes with any- body of citizens, but that is a matter of fact tind should go to a jury. Thoro is no doubt that if, Sunday aftor Sunday for fifty-two weeks in tho year, tho public was annoyed, tho judge would send it to the jury to find whether or not it amounted to a public nuisance, It tho law said 'you shall not play bands upon the public streets on Sunday it would ho dill'eront.' But no law indicator what amounts to a public nuisance on tho Sab bath." Mr. Ilolman then said, "If Mr. Tom eroy's explanation had been made tho other motion would not have prevailed." Mr. Lamb's motion was carried, aftor which Mr. James moved that u resolution submitted by Mr. Pomeroy be adopted. Mr. Hopkins seconded tho motion, which was carried. Tho resolution read as fol lows; "Wiierkas, It appears to bo tho public fontimont of tho citizen of tho borough of Shenandoah that tho uso ot nanus ana othor Instruments at tho exercises of tho lavlncr of tho corner stono of tho bl. Uoorge's Lithuanian Catholiu church of Shenandoah on bun lay, tho '25th day of October, le'Jl, should not bo probioitou; therefore bo it Resolved.

Mr. Lamb then movod that a committee of throe bo appointed to wait upon a com mittoo of the Lithuanian church and make them understand that tho provious action was not any action against their church and that there was no pri judlco against their particular church. Mr. Hopkins soconded tho motion and it-was carried. Messrs. James, Hopkins and Ilolman were appointed a committee to carry out tho instructions.
