NO COAL OIL INSPECTOR.

A RRAsoNABLY LUCRATIVE CITY OF
FIcE THAT DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE
FILLED.
The recent coal oil accident in this
city, resulting from the use of an oil for
burning purposes that would not stand
fire test of one hundred and ten de-
prees, Fahrenheit, has brought to
light the fact that the Office Of Coal
Oil Inspector in this city, a reasonably
lucrutive position, has been vacant for
about year.
The ordinance providing for the ap
pointment of this officer was passed
April 28th, 1870, and fixed as the time
for the annual election the first stated
meeting in July of each year. This is
the meeting held under provision of
the City Charter, on the first Monday
night in July, for the election of Street
Commissioners, Clerk of the Market,
and other officers. On this night,
from year to year, the Coal Oil In
spector was elected until last year,
when Council, from some unaccount-
able reason, omitted to make the usu-
al selection of this officer. The last
man chosen was Charles T. Schoen,
who was elected in July, 1873, and Or
dinarily he would have held the Office
until the election of his successor, but
he resigned before his term expired,
and is now living in Philadelphia. =
Council accepted the resignation, but
failed to fill the vacancy.
The Office is reasonably lucrative,
and paid Mr.. Schoen, on an average,
about two dollars per day. 1t is rath-
er strange that it did not receive the
attention of some office-seeker long
ago. "a

WHO Has BEEN WORKING AS A PORTER
In NEW YORK.

WHO Has BEEN WORKING AS A PORTER
In NEW YORK.
NEW YORK, March 22.-Geor Es-
sex Montifex, Lord Drcmmond. grand
son and heir OF the present Earl OF
Perth, has gone back to Scotland.
Seven or eight years ago, and when he
was only about 10 years of age he mar =
ried his grandmother maid, buxom
girl several years older than himself,
and ran away with her to this country.
He landed in New York without means,
and hired himself as sh ppIug clerk TO
Q down town firm. He was waywar1, +,
and by his own account, drank himself
out OF his position, when he left the
city and settled at Brookhaveu, a fishing
village on the south shore of LoUg
Island. He lived there In a picturesque
old farm house, supporting himself and
his wife very comfortably by fishing
and shooting. He renal ned in Brook
haven for several years. He lost utterly
all his English characteristics, and in
appearance, manner and language was
like the fishermen who surrounded hun.
He had little education and no taste for
reading, and he seemed both contented
with and fitted to the life he led. He
was tall and athletic, and might have
been any summer evening, alter fishing
hours, slouching ABOUT his door yard,
wearing blue dannel shirt, a huge pair
OF ruODot OOOJS anu battered Olu SOU
wester. His neighbors knew him as
"George," and the younger generation
found In him boon companion. About
two years ago a son aud heir was born to
him. Last year he quit his fishing, and
bringing his wife anu child to the city,
hired himself out as porter to "a dry
goods house.
The wife OF the young lord is passa-
bly, good-lookiLg. She is substantial in
person, and locks as il she enjoyed good
health. She also is upeducated, but she
has read to an extent, and is consider
ably more intelligent than his lori ship.
She talks cockney English, and takes
the widest. liberties with the letter Ii.
The animal health of the parents seems
TO have desceude d to the child.
When the young lord was a shipping
clerk In the city he was visited by Lord
Walter Campbell, son of the Duke OF
Argyll and brother of the marquis OF
Lorne, who was a member of New
York business house al the time, and
who unsuccessfully tried to persuade the
runaway TO give up his wife and return
to his people. 1t is understood that &
reconciliation has been effected between
the old earl and his grandson.

A PORTION OF 1T PURCHAsED ny THE
=. W. ID. r. \.
1t will be remembered no doubt by
the readers of the GAZETTE that IN
September last the Pomeroy & Del
aware r. r., running from Pomeroy
on the line of the Pennsylvania II. r.,
to Delaware City, was sold by a de-
cree of the U. 8. Circuit Court in
Philadelphia.
The road was purchased by Dell
Noblitt for 800, 900 who it was assem-
ted at the time was an agent of the
Pennsylvania r. X. After the road
was purchased the name was changed
to the Pennsylvania & Delaware r. X.
For some time previous to the road
was sold it was operated by the Del
aware Western r. r., who ran their
trains through to Pomeroy. They con-
tinued to operate it up to October list,
since which time it has been operated
presumably by the Pennsylvania. AZ
ter the purchase of the road, there
were various speculations as to what
the p. r. II, Co., would do with their
purchase, and it was even rumored at
the time that they intended purchas-
ihB d ldiSo IidCb VI idhu AZ DeluWhTt
City, for the purpose of making that
place coal shipping point. This ru-
mored purchase at Delaware City was
never made, however.
The matter has now taken another
shape. That portion of the road lying
between Newark aud Delaware City,
has, it is rnmored, been purchased by
the Philadelphia, Wilmington & Balrf-
more Railroad Company, but the ptice
paid is not stated, nor what they intend
using it for. The original purchasers OF
the road met in Philadelphia a short
time ago, and organized that portion Of
the road lying In Pennsylvania. They
will meet In this city on Monday next
and organize that portion of the road
lying in Delaware, as this must be done
before the sale can be contaminated.
