What Was It f.?

Last week q singular occurrence
took place In this city. Directly In
the centre Of Second street, and close
to the edge Of the planking which
crosses the street, leading into the
front entrance OF the Methodist
church, the earth gave way opening
a huge chasm In the ground several
feet deep. A large pine was inserted
into the hole to warn teamsters and
pedestrians Of the dangerous locality.
Investigation naturally suggests the
idea of cistern built In the days OF
long ago. How came it there y? F,r
what purpose built? How long has
it existed? Are questions which
obtrude themselves on the enquirinR
mind. IT'S q mystery OF the past
insolvable at present, Certain Ia 1t
that hundreds OF vehicles and pedes.
TRANS have passed over the treach'
erous cavern and fortunately met
with no misbap. Measures should al
once be taken to fill up the DANCE
rous hole to prevent future accident
The emerald branches OF the pine
now mark It's locality.

break the monotony OF our quiet

with his rider on Front street. He
Indignantly threw his burden into
the soft mud Of the street. soiling his
clothes and smashing a jug Of coal

then snorted and cavorted, and made

saddle under him, he started to run
and brought up against an OK team,
