WHAT row the women would make if
men wore stove-pipe hats at concerts, lee
lures, and the theatre. The dear creatures
turret their heads several stories high, and
to sit behind one of them in place of
amusement is equivalent to not seeing any
thing that is going on in front, No wonder
he men go out to smile under such afllic-
lions.

There was another break Of the
gas main on Tuesday night. This
time ii was q six-inch main on
Water street, and the escaping gas
was very obnoxious t. citizens
living near the break; in fact, two
ladies suffered some from the
effects OF il. AS we said before,
these accidents are unavoidable,
and we suppose will be quite fre-
quent until the ground aud pipes
finally settle iuto position after
the Spring thaWs. We notice
these breaks always occur during
the thaw after a cold snap.
