As to Gas,

At meeting yesterday evening of the
Common Council Committee on Law
and Contracts, held for the purpose OF
considering proposition made by the
Gas Company some months ago for the
reduction of the price of gas to private
consumers, and the extension of the
contract for lighting the city for q
term OF ten years In consideration OF
said reduction. Mr.. Biddle pre-.
sented a resolution, which was
adopted, requesting the Gas Company to
furnish for the use OF members detailed
statement OF the cost OF manufacturing
gas, including coal, pipe service, and all
expenditures, so that the Committee
could see the actual cost, as 81 80 per
thousand feet is regarded as extortion-
ate In view Of the fact that several pub
lje institutions of this city are making
Weir own gas at cost Of only 90 cents.

On an Accommodation Train.

A very amusing incident occurred on
Fort Wayne Railway train Saturday
afternoon. just before one of the ac-
commodations pulled out from the Fed
eral street station well.dressed, re-
speotable-looking individual, slightly
the worse for little "tam," entered one
of the cars, approached lady who was
occupying part OF a seat, and said:
"Madam, is thi (hic) is seat takenW
The lady very pleasantly answered,
"No, sir"
"Madam, may 81 (hic) it downw
"Yes, sir, you may"
The boosy individual took a seat, and
in few moments the train started. He
sat seemingly contented and happy for a
few minutes. All at once he threw his
arms about his fellow-traveler and
kissed her vehemently several times.
Several passengers in the crowded car
at this became greatly incensed. The
fellow kept up his loving method of pro.
cedure, and the lady appeared to be re-
sisting him as best she could. Finally
number Of the most determined of the
passengers made simultaneous bounce
tor the boozy man. One individual
raised window, and it looked as if the
fellow was going to hunt terra frma,
when be suddenly seemed to take ip the
situation.
"What does vi (hic) you fellows
wanLW
The only answer was a more deter
mined effort to lift the speaker from his
place. Then the other occupant of the
seat turned and took part in the CONVEX
sation.
"Gentlemen," she said, "this is my
husband"
"Oh-"
The man and his wife had entered the
car before any Of the other passengers
and had gone out for refreshments
When lie returned, feeling very humor-

and returned the following verdict:
John e. Morrison came TO his death by reas-
on of injuries received by being run down by
an express train of the Eastern railroad in
Cape Elizabeth, said Morrison at the time of
said accident being in a state of intoxication
and having short time previous been elected
from q train of said railroad at one of It's sta.
tons on account Of refusal to pay fare. The
life in this case would not have occurred had
the railroad company provided means for ex-
GLIDING intoxicated, persons without tickets
from the cars, and thus avoided the necessity
of ejecting them at side stations when unable
to take care of themselves.
