responsibility for carrying the mail be-
tween this place and Wsynesburg. Nc
Donald took the contract for $3.50 per

is little enough.
Rev. DR.. GEO. p HAYS. the popular
and efficient President of Washington

call to the pastorate of Spring Garden

there several times during the pastorate
of Rev. DR.. ID. A. Cunningham, who re-
signed some time ago, ard has now IN

At 5 o'clock the word was given and in a
remarkably short space of time, the pole
stood upright, streamer floating from
its apex, and the national ensign a few
feet lower, gracefully waving to the
breeze. During the raising OF the pole,
Kramer's band gave renewed vigor
TO the occasion with the best

greatly to the success Of the affair. The

ANIMPORrANT PROJECT.
A Movement on Foot 10 Consolidate
Two :RatIrOatis.

A Movement on Foot 10 Consolidate
Two Railroads.
From the Pittsburgh Dispatch.
There is said to be movement on foot
ut the present time to consolidate the
Pittsburgh, Wheeling and Kentucky
railroad, which is now ready for the su
perstructure and owned by the counties
of Brooke and Ohio, in West Virginia,
with the prospective Lake Erie
and Pittsburgh road. II q consoll-
dation of the interests OF the two
lines can be effected, the following
will be the route Of the new road:
Commencing at the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad depot in this city it will cross
the MonoHgahels river near Smlthheld
street, then follow the sound bank of the
Ohio river until point near Noblestown
is reached. From there 1t will run par
allel with the Steubenville pike until it
reaches tbs Panhandle road which 1t
will cross at or near Hollidaysburg. From
this point it will take q direct course to
the line of the Pittsburgh, Wheeling and
Kentucky road, already graded. The
Lake Erie and Pittsburgh road
was to have crossed the Ohio
river at Phillipsburg and pro.
coed in the direction of Youngstown,
but as their are prospects for the con-
struction of the Northwestern road, the
former line will take more northwestern
ly course, in case the project is carried
out, and by so doing will give Pitts
burgh, besides connections with the
Baltimore and Ohio road. the advan.
tages of a direct route TO Chicago, and
competing line to Steubenville, Bellaire,
GAINESVILLE, Newark, Columbus, Cincln-
natl, Mansfield, sc. We may be able to
give our readers some something more
definite on this question in few days.

STRONG SYMPTOMS The jcluded lit
tie boy of the Evening Monotony evidently
shows strong signs of insanity in bis dia-
tribe on The town clock. The assertion
that pigeons 60 into the tower is true, but
the impression that their ofial in any way
interteres with the workings of the clock
is false. The movements of the clock are
well protected, and the door leading to
them Is kept locked, and the dia wheels
and rods covered with tin, so
that it is impossible for any.
thing to interfere with them, although
the pigeons had free ingress to and from
the tower" Whoever heard of tower
being closed up tight in which the bell
OF q town clock was located? If the
Twelft street youth had taken second
thought, he might possibly have
recollected that Mr.. Oxtoby refused to
have anything more to do with keeping
the clock in order because it
was impossible, and that if, as
he asserts, Mr.. Winzenreid stated that il
would "last for fifty years longer" if re-
pared, then Mr.. Winzenreld has sadly
neglected his duty, inasmuch as he Is
paid by the city TO keep the clock in
repair. Again, that same gentleman who
was with Mr.. Winzenreid, at the time
the "hasty exit" was made, informs US
that Mr.. Winzenreid expressed HIM
self at that time as OF opinion
that the clock was worthless and
could not be repaired to answer any re-
liable purpose. Someone opposed to the
new clock, has doubtless bribed the young
man with a nickles worth of gum drops,
or "pony glass of beer" as our Four
teenth street contemporary so APPLY
terms it.

CALDWELL RUN BRIDGES Both
Branches Of the City Council met at the
City Building, yesterday afternoon, for
the purpose of taking trip to Caldwelps
run, to make an examination IN regard
to the long. contemplated improvements
in that locality. There were twenty
eight members present, including
both Branches, and it was con-
cluded not to organize, but pro-
coed to their destination in body
When the City Fathers got there the
ones that were not posted were shown
the location of the bridges, land how they
would be if the run was Strengthened, all
of which has been printed in these
columns many time. After they pro-
spected and engineered around for some
time, the Council-msrine body dispersed,
and started for their respective homes.
Whether this trip will enlighten their
minds we are unable to tell, but they had
pleasant afternoon anyhow. The Cald-
we'll run bridges will cause many a
wrangle in Council yet, before it will be
settled satisfactorily.
