All is quiet here and but very few of the loeked-out men are to be seen upon the streets. A careful investigation of the shooting at the railroad bridge has not yet entirely cleared the mystery. The crew of the freight train from which the first shots are said to have come, swear positively that there wero no persons on tho train asldo from themselves; that the supposed shots were caused by the ex plosion of signal torpedoes placed upon the track by a shifting crew. Supt, Pottor maintains that tho shots came from revolvers fired from botween tho freight cars; that the bullets struck right in the midst of n squad of militia men who were doing picket duty. In all 125 shots were flrod at tho train by the soldiers, but fortunately no one was in jured. An unsuccessful attempt was made to assault Supt. Pottor during the night while he was sitting ou his porch. Four men came along, ono threw a btone which struek the house and bounded back iuto the street. One of the men picked it up and threw it again and nil ran. HIS ACCOUNTS ARE SHORT. ' A Columbia, Pa., Hank Clerk Proves to be ETA an KmbeEZler. Columbia, Pa., Aug. ID. About three weeks ago John T.

What the lloroiiRh Fathers Talked About Last Night. The Borough Council hold a rogular mooting la-t night but did not remain in session long The O mncllmon preiont were Janus, Stout, Gal I sell or, Lamb, Amour, llcGulro, Hopkins, Holman, Dev. ors, Botteridgo and Coakley. A committoo representing the Lithuanian congregation ppnarod and a'ked that Council i ul an electric light at the corner ol Jnrdin and Chetry ttreots, where tho new church has been erected Chairman James said thoro is an electric light near that place and tho committee said the trees of tho neighborhood mmU tho light useless for the church corner. James then said it would bo well to do as Pottsvillo has directed trim trees that Interfere with the lights. When tho matter was ttken up for action Belteridge moved that the matter be re ferred to tho Lamp and Watch committoo. Lamb wanted to amond "lh-.t tbo rcquost bo ignored," hut chairman James ruled tho amendment out of order and Bctleridgo's motion was carried. BottcridKO reported that littlo street work had been done tho past two woeks and enumerated the places that had been attended to. Hopkins, for tbo Sanitary committoo, reported that bis committeo and tho Law committoo had twice been prepatod to meet the principals and witnesses in tho case of Conslablo Phillips, but tboy failed to mako their appearance. Gu'.tors on Oik and Coal ctrectB wero reported in bad sanitary condition. Lamb, for tho Law committee, reported that more papers bad been fllod in tho water company suit and added, "An im prossion seems to prevail that thero is an injunction cgainst us. Thero is no such thing. Wo can proceed as If no action had been taken by the water company." A proposition from W. E. Davies to lake charge of tho fire alarm appnratus for ?76 a year was road. Ono irom Francis Lewis, with $8 por month as tho figure, wai also read, and tho contract was awarded to Davies. Somebody staled that there was no money in the borough treasury. This led to a littlo tilt between Chairman James and Limb. Tho latter is a merubpr of the Finance committeo with Gable and Gal lagher. Lamb said it was not right for the employes of tho borough to bo ohligod to carry borough orders. Thoy should re ceivo cash for their tervico5. Cnairman James answered that it wa not right for the borough to borrow monoy on interest when sufficient collectable money was within reach of tho Finance committee. lie thought that committee ught to hurry up the lax collectors. But," said Lamb, "wo cannot hold these prople who work for us responsible for our-our-our shortsightedness." "Neglect," added James. H.ilrnan roportcd that complaints wero ing made about the Delaney property at tho corner of Huin and Oak streets; and D' verscomplained of tho sanitary condi tlon of Strawberry alley. Lamb again brought up the question ol peniug West street and Stout said to do all tho work demanded of tho Street torn mitteo would require 820,000. Later on ho iid I havo purchased the old C.ithor property and I would like tho borough to pen Whito and Cherry streets so I can get In and out there. It won't cost much nly about $8,000. The q'JOHion of opening streets dlsap peared amid laughter that followed these remarks. Coakley asked what had been done by tho committoo appointed to investigate the Hkiiald. Lamb taid ho had boon very busy and did not havo time to attend to the matter, lut would do to next week, or the week after. i WINGED COURIERS. The Important Part Formerly Played by Carrier Pigeons. Ovid, tho author ol "Metamorphoses," makes the first mention of the em ployment of carrier pigeons, no states that Tauro Bthenes gavo notico of hit being victorious in tho Olympian games by Bending a pigeon stained with pur ple to his father at Kgina, that being tho color agreed upon botween them to indicate the son s success. Pliny states that when Maro Antonj was besieging Modeno, pigeons were employed to keep up a correspondence between tho inhabitants of the be leaguered city and friends on the out side of tho walls. When tho Fronch and Venetians in vested the City of Ptolemals, in Syria, and the defenders wore ready to capitu late, a pigeon was seen flying toward the city. Tho besieging army imme diately set up a terrific shouting, which so frightened the winged mossengoi that it dropped to the earth and was iqulcUly captured. Upon close exami nation a letter was discovered under its wing containing a message from tin sultan that in three days he would raloe tho siege with a large forco of his sol 'diora. The besiegers indicted another epistle stating that the sultan would be unable to render any assistance, and, aeeurlng It to the bird, set it free, when it flew into the oity. The captain ol the garrison, upon reading this unwel' come piece of news, capitulated, and great was the surprise of the sultan upon arriving with the promised rellof to find the Christians in possession of the city. These winged couriers were also similarly employed at the siege of Ley- den in 1675, but in this case the original letter readied the ones for whom it was Intended and they were enabled to hold on until sucoor arrived. The pigeons who had contributed to this successful rescue were maintained at tho public expense and at their death were em' 'lialmed and placed in the town-house as a monument of gratitude for tho signal bervico renderod by them. For hundreds of yeats carrier pigeons havo beon used as postmen in muny other parts of the world, serving alike in conveying warlike or peocoful mes' sagerf from place to place. Detroit Fres Press.
