-UNPLEAsANT COMPANIONS.
Why Three Dead Men and Three
Live Ones Spent the Night in
One Cell I'm the CaIabOOse.

THAT article Of yours the other
day about my adventures in Winches'
ter Cemetery has brought up many an
old pauper ghost before me-" re-
marked the old surgeon to the report
er yesterday. III venture to say
that there are at least a thousand
mounds in that old graveyard that
don't mean anything, and | know l
have helped rob at least five hundred.
That was when l occupied the Chair
of Anatomy at the Medical College,
and had to give five or six lectures a
week. AT that time it was a peniten-
tiary offense to rob graves, and we
had to work with a dark lantern and
both eyes open. Usually the supply
of paupers-we never used any others
was good, but I.once remember they
we're so scarce that the studies suffered
in consequence. was almost in des-
pair, when one day old Joe came iAto
the lecture room and held up three
fingers. l knew hal meant three
corpses, and told the class to be ready
for business the next night. After
dark l gave Joe and the other
two boys instructions how to do,
and saw them steal away, each
with a sack. l was aroused from
bed at midnight by a messenger, who
stated that my boys had been caught
with the bodies, and we're ct that mo-
ment in one cell at the station house,
live and dead men altogether. l was
in a fearful state, but got to see the
boys before court next morning, and
instructed them not to answer the po-
lice judge a single question. They
obeyed, and their punishment was
fixed at thirty nine lashes on the bare
back. Rather than see them whipped
l appealed the cases, and held the
matter in court for more than four
years. 1t cost me nearly $500 to save
thoae boys a whipping" With the
promise of a hair. lifting episode next
time, the old surgeon said good morn
ing in his pleasant way, and departed.

Further Examination Of Wit
uesses In the:Water Works /.
Case.

Engineer Lannon, Of the Water
Company, j. W. X. Browne, the
plumber, and W. s. Bruce testified
this forenoon for the defense in the
Water Company case that the Water
Company had used every endeavor to
furnish a full supply of water. Mr..
Bruce testified that it was not intended
to spare means to reach this end, and
none we're spared; that they were dis
appointed by the manufacturers of
whom they ordered new machinery
for the sewers, which was delayed
nearly two months. Cross examined.
Said as soon as he and others bought
the works, they saw they were not
adequate, and at once contemplated
improvements. Did not know that
that the company was soon after in
formed Of the utter unreliability Of
the machinery. The engineer in
formed him that the machinery was
liable to break. The President paid
a visit to leading manufactures to
look at machinery. The works were
always breaking. He didn't know
that the machinery ordered was ready
before the well was dug, and that it
laid at the depot seven weeks. The
company had once declared a dividend
of ten per cent on stock. He did not
regard this as watering stock.
Mr.. W. L. Cameron, Secretary Wa
ter Company, testified the old pipes
were l6 inch, the new ones 20, capac-
ity Of pumps we're guaranteed eight
million gallons every twenty-four
hours. and worked admirably. New
machinery would a v $1,000 per
month to Company. Did not think
from comparison that this city ought
to use more than a million and a half
gallons. Such a thing as blowing out
a lead joint has. not occurred under
the old system, but day after new
works we're put in three we're blown
out. Pressure was g. pounds yester-
day. Blake pumps arrived here in
November or December, and weather
was inclement for putting down
works. Company assisted the con
tractors. Was instructed to spare no
expense to keep Water Works run
ming, and obeyed same. Breaks in
machinery constantly occurred.
Struck a streak of bad luck.
