Uncle sam,s NIen on Hand.

The corps of government engineers that arrived last night has already demonstrated the valuable assistance which it is capable of rendering in these times of emergency. With but few hours rest, those men were up ere sunrise this morning, and by eight o'clock pontoon bridge had been stretched across the river at Kernville. Acting in conjunction with the Pennsylvania military authorities they are pursuing their lsbors at various other points. and by sundown it is confidently expected that pontoon bridges will be erected at all places where the neces- sities of traffic demand. It is the fact, pro- bably not tgeneraliy known, that the great government of the United States owns only five hundred feet of pontoon bridges, and that these are the same that were used by the federal forces in the civil war, twenty-five years ago. The bridges that are to be used at Johnstown were brought from West Point and Willett's Point, where they have been for years used in the ordinary course of instruction in the military and engineering corps.

of the Palma "All Night Bowling Club,
the latter visited the Berkeley Club house
Saturday evening with nearly a score of
other members of the Palma Club, and
the two teams tried conclusions on the
new bowling alleys. The figures were
naturally low, as the balls, pins and alleys
are new and are not smooth.
The game was ex~citedly contested, and
was noted. Surrogate O'Neil made the
highest score of the evening and beat
Hudson Clark thirty-one pins, just the
number that the home team beat the visi-
tors. b Surrogate, who believes there
is luck in d numbers" was the un-
doubted winner of the game, He and
the Thursday night team, with President
Furman and many of the Berkeley Club
members, made things very pleasant for
the visitors, II a merrier, more sociable
party never gathered in the club house.

the game, and with songs, toasts and re-
sponses all present enjoyed themselves
until midnight.

A COM PROPOSED.
The Creditors of Haver in Bayonne Wi
Take 40 Per Cent.

The Creditors of Haver in Bayonne Will
AXE 40 Per Cent.
A number of the creditors of w. j..
Haver, who recently failed in Bayonne,
met on Saturday last at the Office of AS
signee James Mcguire, Elizabeth. Many
propositions of settlement were made, but
1t was finally agreed that the basis should
be forty per cent, which amount is to be
paid from the sale of property owned by
Hayer. However, should the property
not realize a sufficient sum to pay this,
the creditors will have to be satisfied with
whatever they can get.
After the meeting l talked with one
man whom Haver put on his list of
liabilities as a creditor to the amount of
$500, but who says there is actually due
him $50, borrowed money, and this man
says he is going to have oil the money due
or close Haver up entirely when he at
tempts TO resume business. This man
says that he does not believe Haver's
statement that there is $1,000 due him on
his books. Last March. he says, Haver
took him into his office and showed him
his books for the year 1888. The receipts
were between $64, 600 and S65, 900, and all
of this amount had been collected, ex-
cepting about $500.

eminent in 1915, when the Kandyan
dynasty was oeerthrown and the Whole
island passed under British rule. 1t was
supposed that Sella was fifteen years of
age at this time, but this is surmise. His
two friends, with which he usually
worked, and which fell to the govern
ment at the same time, died twenty-five
years ago. In 1880 1t was decided to sell
all the elephants belonging to the Public
Works Department, and Sella fell to a
well known resident of Colombo, Mr.. dc
Soysl. The animal was a tusker, very
docile, and worked steadily all its life.
1t aided in several keddah operations for
the capture and tanning Of white ele-
plants. but became totally blind about
three years ago. Notwithstanding this
he continued to work at the plough until
a short time of his death. After death
the tusks were removed and measured
five feet in length, the height Of the
animal being eight feet. He was well
known to successive generations of Brit
ish residents in Colombo London
