McCabe.

Sing we now new complaint, which
has developed into first class howl and
it emlnates from the innermost recesses
of the union depot. Agent Cook, and his
neighbor Graves, together with all the
inhabitants in the immediate vicinity, no
tice the absence of Policeman McCabe
with a sorrowful mein. The truth of the
matter is that Mac" has been placed on
the night force, and the scene of his for
mer conquests is filled by a new cop, who
has not yet learned to have his boots
BACKED when he appears at the morning
trains for duty. McCabe filled the part
of regular encyclopedia to the travelling
public, knowing as be does all the stations
along the different roads, the time of ar.
rival and departure of trains therefrom,
and all like questions which an eager pubs
lie is always anxious to learn. In saying
that he is the best man for the place, no
reflection is cast upon the other officers,
for his long experience gives him great
advantage. If Mayor Murdoch will study
the philosophy of civil service reform, he
will see that McCabe gets his just deserts.

The company have been waiting to have
a side track put in for them by the c., NJ.
& St. p. road at the junction, and this
week Superintendent DIN and Engineers
Kimball and Sheldon looked into the
merits of the request and decided to grant
it. The side track will be of sufficient
length to hold from 80 to 40 cars, and
work will be commenced on its construc-
ton Immediately. The mining company
have purchased an engine, and as soon as
everything is in running order they ex-
pect to do rushing business. The mines
contain an immense amount of coal, and
now that they have fine facilities for get
ting it to market, they can conduct busl>
ness to much better advantage.
