Work on the Pump,
SPECIAL mooting ol
tlio Borough Council
was held last ovenlng
to act upon matters per.
talnlng to the construe
tlon of public water
works. The Council
men present wero
Messrs. Bottorldgo,
Coakloy, Gable, Hoi
man, Scheifly, Finney,
uauigan, James, Lamb, Gallaghor and Mc
Qulro, Sir. James Hcting as chairman of tho
ovenlng.
Thoobject of tho meeting was to consider
sorno suggestions made by Civil Engineer
Womelsdorf, of l'ottsvillo, who has been cm
ployed to supervise tho construction of tho
works for tho borough. Tho suggestions
came from Mr. Womclsdorf and were that tho
Council givo him tho power to act as renro.
sontativo of tho Council in tho work: that
more specifications be furnished; that somo
thing bo.dono to settle a question about the
s zo of pipe to bo used; that Mr. Womelsdorf
Iid given authority to ordor tho pumps, and
that Council prcraro to pay bills on June
3hh.
Mr. Scheifly thought tho matters should bo
loft in tho hands of tho water commlttco un
less Council wished to organize as a commit.
toe of tho wholo, but Mr. James ruled that
such action was not necessary.
Mr. Coakley said If Mr. Womolsdorf 's in
tention was to have Council mako him gen
era! manager and superintendent of thn
water works ho would object, as the engineer
had only been employod to look after tho
work of the contractors.
ir- n.n- mi .
jiir. uuuio aaiu mo luea was tuat In caso
Mr. Womelsdorf should see anything going
wrong In tho work of the contractors he
should have power to rectify it without call
ing a meeting of Council. It was not in
tended that tho engineer should have power
to alter or mate new contracts, or incur any
additional expenses. Mr. Gablo followed up
his statement with a motion that Mr. Womels
dorf bo empowered to hold the contractors to
tho specifications and seo that thoy carry
them out, and In caso any changes aro de
sired hotnust first report them to Council.
Tho motion was carried.
Mr. Gablo explained the mattor in relation
to tho pipe by saying that tho bid of Mr,
Koons provided for a 14-Inch pipe and that of
Quinu & Kerns for for a 12 inch pipe. When
tho latter wero awarded tho contract the
figures "14" wero scratched in tho specifica
tions and "12 ' substituted. Mr. Lamb con
urmeu Jir. Uable's statement and said tho
chango was made before tho contract was
signed.
Tho question of ordering the pump for tho
works was .noxt taken up and Mr. Morris, of
Jeanesvllle, said it would tako six months to
mako the pump.
Mr. Botterldge moved that tho Jeancsvlllo
Iron Works Company bo authorized to pro.
coed witli work on tho pump and finish it as
soon as possible.
Mr. Scheifly amended that Mr. Womelsdorf
bo empowered to order tho pump when ho
thinks It Is necessary.
After a lively debato the amendment was
sustained,. Messrs. Gable. Gallaeker and
Ucttcridgo voting against it.
In considering the recommendation for
payment of bills incurred in the construction
of tho water works Council decided that it
will meet on tho second Tuesday of every
mouth to consider sack bills.
Mr. James then called attention of Council
to the overlooked request of the P. O. S. of
A. joint commltteo for permission to ring tho
fire bell on the morning of tho Fourth of
July. Tho request was granted.

reaching tho conclusion that Lakcsido is
tho place at which tho encampment

than any other and has an abuuda
supply of water for drinking, cooking
and bathing purposes. Tho grounds for
manasuvers and camping nio extensive, and
in addition to their excellent facilities they
are convenient to all tho largo towns of this

ment Is intended are within Schuylkill

have had tho pleasure of visiting such an en

should bo selected.

Managers of tho Bead

steps toward extending tho tlmo for the as
sents to tho plan. Through this action of
tho board, in viow of tho fact that the
requisite: percentage of bonds and stock did
not assent, tho plan lias finally been aban
doned.
An authority says: "Tho failuro tho of
Beading bondholders to como into tho plan

the public was only $31,330,000 bonds nnd
411,218 shares of stock. Thus the assente
were short of the amount required by $10,
472,000 bonds nnd 00,200 shares of stock
With such a deficiency to confront, the

HE SHOT INTO THE CROWD,

New Youk, June 28. A strongly built
youth of 16 held a crowd at bay yesterdaj
In Second avenue near One Hundred and
Third street. Ho had stolen $1 from n
store, nnd when he was accusedof tho theft
by the proprietor he whipped out a revolver
and fired a shot at him.
Ho then dashed up Second nvenue, a big
crowu ac nis neeis. wnen his pursuer
got close to him he turned, faced them alio
fired two shots. One of the bullets struck
a 13-year-old boy In the head nnd the other
lodged in a man's arm. The boy is in a
dangerous condition.
But for the promptness of a young man
who lives in tho vicinity the thief would
have escaped. Despite the fact that he
fired two tthots at hlin this young man run
him down, overpowered him and turned
him over to tho police.
Christopher Berkhofer was reading a
newspaper in his shoe store at No. 237
East One Hundred and Third street when
a youth entered and asked for a pair of
shoestrings. He was Oeorge Hartley, and
although he looks 20 be says he is only 16.
uerKiioler went to the bade of the store
to get the shoestrings. He saw Hanley go
to the till and take a silver dollar. Then
the youth quietly walked out.

next door, at No. 229. There were several
men In the place.
' Lome up and nave a drlnlc, all of you."
Hanley said. "I've got money enough to
'blow' the crowd."
They drank with the lad. and when It
came time to pay Hanley bad a dispute
over the charge with Wiegand. While
they were arguing Berkhofer entered.
" Vou stole my money," he cried at Han

rew it out.
Without hesitation nanley blazed away
at Berkhofer. The bullets grazed th shoe
lealer's tar and lodged In the wall.
Beforo any one could interfere Hanley
iarted out ot the saloon and ran toward
Second avenue, the smoking revolver in
his hand. Berkhofer, the saloon keeper
and the men who had been drinking with
him rushed after him. Many children who
were playing In the street Joined the pursuers.
Hanley turned into Second avenue. He
had gone halt a block when the crowd was
almost upon blm. A few more strides and
the pursuers would have him.
Looking over his shoulder be saw how
close the pursuers were. Like a flash be
wheeled and the crowd came to a stand
still when they taw he had elevated his
big revolver.
He fired two shots Into the throng and
both of them took effect. With a ory of
pain 12-year-old Oeorge Stevenson, of No.

OBE'S OBSERVATIONS.
What He Seen mid Hoars During in

Ono of tho most gorgeous affairs in tho
sliapo of a bedstead has recently been mado
for a Philadelphia millionaire It is about two
feet abovo tho lloor, and the head board is
not moro than a foot higher than tho foot-rest.
No wood work is visible. Glowing plush ol
fluc8t quality covers a soft yielding cushion
secured in piano whero in other beds is
polished mahogany or walnut. Instead t
tlio spread for tho mako up bed a sumptuous
square of plush is used. Tho spread hangs
over tho sides, a valanco that reaches tho
floor finishing tho sumptuous efloct. The
squaro'Is elabarately" embroidered In fest ous
and bow-knots of cream whito satin, outlined
with gold cord. Tho valanco is bordered
with deep fringe and is embroidered In the
spread pattern. Tho canopy of this elegant
resting placo is of plush, lined with cream
satin aud embroidered to match tho spread,
A somewhat amusing incident occurred at
tho Trotting park on Sunday while tho circus
peoplo wero eugaged in erecting tents. Two
men of town, having an eye to business, aud
tikiug advantage of tho warm weather, were
seen ascending tho hill with what appeared
to bo a woll-filiod keg of beer. When they
arrived at the grounds tho keg was placed in
a conspicuous place and soon tho flowing beer
was ready for th6 thirsting showmen. Tho
latter flocked around the hastily improvised
bar with their uicklcs, with tho expectation
of having their thirst quenched by tho aid of
a cool glass of lager. Behold their surpriso
and chagrin when they discovered that tho
contents of tho keg was homo made root
beer. Immediately the wprd was passed
around, and soon the scheming Shenandoah
Ites were deserted, their beverage would not
sell boluw par, aud what promised to bo a
successful scheme failed to materialize.
Tho daily pross furnishes the information
that tho decree has gone forth from the lead
ing divines of the Methodist church, which
numbers 5,000,000 members, that the fol
lowers of that denomination will boycott tho
World's Fair. Tho reason given is that the
authorities have decided to open tho exposl
tlon on Sundays. Bishop Merrill says the
exhibits of that church will be withdrawn,
and that millions of Methodists the world
over will ceaso to patronize tho Fair. He
further says: "The Methodist church will
not be alone lu the movement. I have it on
good authority that other denominations will
adopt measures equally radical. If not moro
so. That means that tho World's Fair will be
a financial failuro."
