The following item of personal

citizen of Columbus we clip from the

father was 80 years old on Christmas
day of this week, and his mother will
be IS years old New Years day of
next week. The Reverend thinks he
has one more reason to celebrate
Christmas and New Years than 9TH
ers have"
The fact that there has been alto
gether too much drunkenness and
d~isorderly conduct exhibited On our
streets the past week,-especially
about Christmas time,-for the credit
of the city and its officials must have
been observed by all who happened
to be out after nightfall. We cannot
but think that . more rigid enforce
ment of the city ordinance relative to
this matter would be proper and meet
the approval of all good citizens.

REFINING THE BRIDGE CABLE.

The cause OF the delay to travel on the
Brooklyn Bridge Wednesday and Thursday was ex-
p,ained TO TRIBUNE reporter yesterday, by superin-
tcndent Martin, who said:
.'When the cable first put on ii was known that Il
would wear the splice before would at any other
point and knowing this provided new strands OF rope
last spring The cable has been examined every Sainr
day night after the have been stopped On satur
day last of the strands Of the splice was found to be
worn somewhat and although it would have lasted
probably for long time. il determined to replace IT,
fhe engine which drives the cable was stopped AT
O'Clock last night and the with engines up
o. o'clock this morning The splice T. about 100 feet
long and forty feet of Of the strands was
cut out and replaced with rope. The
o'clock this morning and the trains began running a.
usual at ) o'clock. As fast the other strands or
the splice become out they will be replaced in the
same manner. None of them need now The stoppaSe
OF Wednesday night due to the fact that there We're
nine trains the Bridge, of which hve NwO OF them
heavily loaded the Brooklyn SIDE at one time
The cable had Just been oiled aud was wet The trains
coming Brooklyn naturally pushed the slack OF the
cable toward the drum and those going the grade Ia
New. York pushed the slack back and the cable slipped
around the drum. The engineer. not Knowing what
caused this was afraid To put on sufficient steam To drive
TIE cable and stopped the engine As soon q, the cars
were freed from the cable II worked all right. The delay
ought to have been more than five minutes at the
INST"
