The total number of lincal feet of sewers
built during the year is more than that OF
the wear before. Besides the location OF the
sewers, the tables will show where pipe
drains, stacks, inlets, and inlet-connec-
lions were constructed. The prices
paid for sewers during the year were
as follows: Furnishing bricks, sand, and
workmanship OF sewers and branches,
S13.25 to $3.50 per thousand; stacks and
inlets, $3.50 to $3.50 per thousand; ce-
ment, Si.45 to Sl.55 per barrel, delivered;
and excavation and refling Of trenches 26
cents per cubic yard.
In many cases where sewers are already
built, BY increasing the number OF inlets

No public man in Washington gave
more famous dinner parties than Sen

liberal of hosts, and set the best table
in the capital of the republic. Laugh.

story. Mr.. Lincoln himself probably
did not excel him in this gift Of anec-

aud on which during the summer
months he lived, although his fine

The Haze Of Indian Summer,

Mr.. Joel Benton has recently pub
lished an elaborate essay combating
the popular notion, which also has a
quasi-scientifc support, that the blue
haze of Indian summer is the prOduct
of ordinary smoke from fires. He
argues at first that the well-Anown be-
havior Of smoke is not consistent With
the various phenomena oF the Blue
haze. After desctibjng these. he avs ;

statistics nor the newspaper reports

the haze precede the fires, and ceases
after the usual mountain fires have

SINGULAR DISCOVERY.
What a San Antonio Man Found in a
Texas Cave.

Galveston News San Antonio letter.
There is a nan in town who has 4
curious story to tell, but which he is
able to Substantial fully, and which
is believed by all who have heard it,
He lives on the headwaters of the
Nueces river. About eighteen months
ago he discovered an opening of a cave
near the top of a mountain. Upon
closer examination he discovered a
well-defned road that had evidently
been cut out by the hand of man, ex-
tending from the foot of the mountain
to the mouth of the cave. He thought
that there must be something worth
hunting form the cave, either treasure
buried by the Spaniards, or possibly
he might discover some abandoned
silver mine. So he went to work
clearing out the debris. He kept his
own counsel, and has worked steadily
clearing out the cave for the last
eighteen months, until he was com
PEELED to stop by bleeding at the lungs.
de was very successful in not discov-
ering any old iron boxes filed with
old Spanish doubloons, and, what
was very singular, he did not
find any rich silver ore for it
is nowadays almost impossible for a
nan to dig a we'll or turn over a rock
without finding something that will
average at the least $50 ounces to the
ton. The indefatigable explorer
cleared out the cave for the distance
of a hundred feet, and discovered
ancient mason work, where the root
had been arched. Among the rub
bish he also found a small tablet of
some unknown substance resembling
ivory, covered with hie~roglyphics.
One of them resembled a ladder. 1t
was thought that the signs were Ma
sonic, but, after close examination by
several well posted Masons, nothing of
the kind could be detected. The ex-
plorer says that the ruins of an old
ediice of some kind are in the i'm
mediate vicinity, and also two other
caves, with paths leading up to them.
are to be seen on neighboring hills. 1t
is not unlikely that, if these caves are
explored, they will prove to be mines
abandoned by the Spaniards, although
some think they are the relics of
some prehistoric race that has moved
away.

A Verdant Bridegroom Astonlshes ;
Conductor by a Novel Plea.

Afoy nlg.l
Last Monday night a newly married
pair entered the Albany depot, and
selecting a seat in the darkest corner
of the room, proceeded to enjoy
themselves to the fullest extent. The
groom was dressed as all grooms are
only the cloth didn't fit HMM black
broadcloath, high-heeled boots, plug
hat, white vest and a white tie, with
starch enough in it to swamp the
Glen Cove starch works. He hailed
from somewhere back of Albany, and
must have walked to the city, as was
evident by the mud on his boots. His
tailor had neglected to sponge the
cloth in his suit, therefore the bottom
Of his pants hardly came to the top of
his boots. Altogether, it seemed to
be his intention to make things
howl" The bride was completely
enveloped in white from the crown Of
her head to the soles of her feet and
to the tips of her fingers. After
lingering in their seats and audibly
swearing eternal love through thick
and thin, the groom found time to
leave and buy the tickets. He
marched up to the ticket window with
the air Of a nan determined not to
show the people he was just spliced
and called for a ticket for clear out
West Upon being asked to what
point he wished his ticket. he
replied somewhere beyond Chicago.
and finally said he would take one
ticket to Chicago, and wanted
to go by the way Of the
Albany and Susquehanna railroad,
and take the sleeper at
Schenevus. His ticket secured. both
waited patiently for the train to start,
and when it did start both made a
grand rush for the seats in the rear of
the car, After making themselves as
comfortable as possible, they settled
right down to business, aud opened
fourteen lager beer bottles per minute.
if one might judge from the noise of
the explosion which followed. Each
made it an objectto crumple,theiother's
neck gear, and both succeeded. The
fur on the = plus" pointed every way
for Sunday, and the plug" was
firmly planted on the back of his
head. But their dreams had to be
broken. The conductor came along.
He approached the gushing pair and
asked them for their tickets. The
groom handed up his ticket and set
tied back to business.
Conductor-Where is your other
ticket?
Groom-Why, / amt only got one.
Cenductor-Well, is this lady with
you?
Groom-Why, yes, in course she is.
Conductor-Well, where is her
tinket2
Groom-Wby, Mr.. Conductor, she
is my wife. Don't you know, why we
jugt got married my wife, don't you
see we don't need but one ticket.
The conductor could not make the
bewidered groom understand the rules
Of the road, and that it would require
two tickets to get them to Chicago.
and finally when the train reached
Scheneyus the bridal party were put
off, where they took the next train
back to Albany in search of the man
who sold Fhe ticket not good for man
and wife.

New York Commercial Bulletin
We learn, on good authority, hal
some of the trunk railroads have given
orders for 1000 new freight cars, to be
completed from the fifteenth of No
yembor at the rate Of twelve oars q
day. These contracts will require
fourteen million pounds Of pig iron in
wheels alone, and nearly five million
pounds for axles. For the other iron
works, it is estimated about Eve mil
lion pounds will be required. Thus,
in the aggregate, fully 10000 tons Of
pig iron will be required fol. compile

check the tendency to lower prices for
pig.

The colored Convention.

Nashville, Tenn, May S.-An unusu-
ally large assemblage was in attendance
upon the national colored convention.
Most of the day was spent in presenta.

A resolution was adopted accepting
the offer rendered by B. F. Butler, to
donate 10000 acres, and also by Zach.

families.
John D. Lewis, of Pa, read report

The report on the constitution of the
american Protective society,"" to pre-
vent injustice to colored people, was
also read.
The objects of the society are declared
to be; first, to foster national union
second, to protect civil and political
rights; third, to facilitate educational
