Bad Fnouoh to be Dirmont.

Then some brilliant intellect-no matter
whose, they are all brilliant-hit upon the
idea of macadamizing the street. Instead
of taking up the blocks a layer Of broken
limestone was thrown over; engine crushers
travelled up and down, and in two weeks the
most beautiful, permeating, suffocating dust
imaginable filled every residence, and pre-
ceded and succeeded a horse that had any
pretense to speed, and hung about in clouds,
descending unanimously upon the just and
unjust, the spring bonnet and the Mackinac
hat.
When the rainy season set in the dust re-
fused to pack, OF course, on wooden
foundation, and it became clay; more rain,
and it became slime; still more rain, and to-
day it looks like fish pond of mud that
can be neither traversed nor even crossed.

GLUTTED WITH GRAIN.

About 2, 900 Cars Being Held on the Penn
sylvania Lines.
The officials of the Pennsylvania Com.
pany are e1erting themselves to relieve their
yards of the large number of cars of grain
which is being held west of Pittsburg. A
few weeks ago when the different lines out
of Chicago were cutting each others throats
on grain rates, the export shippers succeeded
in getting thousands of cars loaded, which
they started east at the reduced rates.
There were so many cars loaded and
shipped over the Pennsylvania lines to Bal
timore that the company could not get
steamships enough to unload the cars at the
point of destination. At present there are
$50 cars on the Pennsylvania Railroad be-
tween Pittsburg and Baltimore, 400 cars be-
tween Columbus and Pittsburg, and ], 300
cars on the Vandalia lines.
The Western roads have been notified
that they must stop the shipment of the
grain until the large number of cars on
hand are unloaded.

ST. Bopifacius Church, Allegheny. Thrown

The formal dedication of St. Bonifacius
R. G. Church on Royal street, Allegheny,

no avail. There is terrific lurch, a crash
OF broken springs, scream from the inside
and swear from the outside, and the coach
actually sticks in the mud on Aiken
avenue, one of the most fashionable streets
in fashionable suburb.
NO FICTION ABOUT IT.
All this happened within a square of
where huckster and his lean horse had
struggled vainly against fate and Pittsburg
streets, and had lain down to die unnoticed.
What in the world to do with suburban
streets in the wet season is a problem that
occupies more time than officials will even
acknowledge. They (the streets, not the
oficials,) cannot all be paved at once, for
the expense would be too great and selec-
tions cannot be made, for in that case one
man would be pleased and a hundred dissat-
isfed.
Baltimore has found a solution, and has
bedded her streets with thick layer of
oyster shells, making the most beautiful
driving imaginable, even in very wet
weather; but then Pittsburgers scarcely have
time to coat their stomachs with oysters, let
alone their roadbeds.
New York has settled the question for
herself by building roads long before SUBJ
urban residences are put up, thus avoiding
any growl from the country folk, and an
ticipating any from the city.

Catholic societies of " estern Pennsylvania,
met last night in the hall of Company B,
Knights of st. George, 1916 Penn avenue,

that is the chiefly consistent thing about
her suburbs.
Shadyside, proud and pre-eminent, actu-
ally stands up to her neck in the mud, and,
queerly enough, doesn't even give one sign
of complaint. This augurs one of two
things: Either her citizens are content with
farmers life, or they have more faith in
the future than satisfaction in the past, and
are contented to wait until they get what
they may, not what they deserve.

To return to Pittsburg streets, the treat

example. Two years ago that central drive
was bad, one year ago it was worse and this
year it is ungrammatically, but undeniably,
worser. Formerly it was paved with uneven
wooden blocks on end, and, though as rough
as corduroy, it had the virtue of
being neither dusty nor muddy.
