OUR fellow citizen G. SIS. Baron, OF
the Barron Manufacturing Company, OF
this city, lett for New York on Saturday
last as n delegate to the Stamped Ware
Manufacturer Association OF the United
States, which convenes in that city this
week.
BUSINESS was quite dull here on Sat
urdoy,
OUR City Council should put bell on
the City Hall at once, to be used as tirt
alarm. The expense would be but trltiIe
and might prove of great value in the
way of saving property. They do many
things which costs our people great
deal more money than that would cost
and which are not half so badly needed
AN alarm of fire was given about 6:3C
o'clock on Saturday evening, caused by
the upsettlng and breaking Of kerosene
lamp IN the second story Of Baron &
Bros stove and tin store on Thlrty-sec.
ond street. Liberty Hose Company No.
/ was promptly on the ground, but the
fire was soon extinguished without the
aid of the fire department. No damage
was done to the building.
YESTERDAY was very quiet day in
BelIaire. Nobody seemed to be astir only
ckurch-goers.
IT seems to be the universal desire Of
the people of South Bcllaire, to have the
street railway track extended as far down
rs Heatherington's. Let it be done.
WE understand that the Catteraugus
will run hereafter between Wheeling and
Ferry.
THE light fall of snow on Friday night,
brought out the broom brigade in full
force on Saturday morning. The snow
ordinance is good thing and causes our
pavements to be kept in good condition,
and if the Council would get up mud
ordinance that would work as well, they
would receive the blessing of the present
generation at least.

R. K had his foot mashed yesterday
morning, about nine o'clock at the
Bridgeport switch under the following
circumstances.
The east bound freight stoppcdto con-
lect couple of cars Of stock to the
rain. After running them onto the
main track it was necessary to return
mpty cars, which preceded the stock
airs. to the siding. While doing so
} Donnel took his position on the plat
orm of thclformost car read y to uncoup-
DE at the proper moment. This he did
nd instantly signaled to the engineer

umped on to the rear car Of the train,
Which was a platform car and ladened
With ties that had on their race
ONE snow and were slightly slippery.
The engineer reversed his engine which
ave the cars jerk that threw o Donnel
off the car and on to the track.
The train was heavy and still moved
lowly backward. O'Donnel, in his
fort to yet clear caught his right foot
n the space where the siding track
mites with the main track, which held

ne could do so, conductor Blanch
I'd, who was few feet of,
