One of the Ways of u Queer Old Town.

Passengers who take the 2 o'clock car
on Walnut street every morning enjoy a
decidedly novel treat, through the kind
ness of the driver, a policeman and a
baker. The car passes a bakeryat Il GER
tain hour, and just before it gets opposite
the door policeman standing near whis-
ties shrilly, the grating is raised and a
flour busted Urn hands out u hot loaf of
bread. This the policeman hands to the
driver, whose invariable form of thanks
consists Of the words, "God bless you,
old man." Then thedriver ties the lines
around the brake, enters the car, and d.
vides the bread with the passengers.
There were eight solemn looking passen-
gers in the car on q recent morning, and
a man getting aboard at the Baltimore
and Ohio depot was visibly astonished
when he saw every n Of them MUNICH
ing hot bread and talking politics.-Phil-

FEARS We're apprellemded on the
2lst and 22nd inst. of Il frost; and
the temperature did get so low us to
cause the farmers some %uneasiness,
but as in 1858 when someOf the couIl-
try east of the river got frosted. this
section escaped. In some low places
a little touch of frost was noticed,--
just enough to color vines-but not
so hard as to injure wheat and other
grain. And from the most authenti-
Gated reports it does not appear that
grain, outside of Il few small localities,
was injured to any extent; but grain
buyers will not lose an opportunity
to take advantage of the slightly
frost bitten sections to grade the
wheat down. and by SO doing make
money out of the farmers for them
selves and the millers.

Bonds Without Surety.

At the meeting of Council Tuesday even
ing Borough Solicitor Campbell presented
the bond of Long & Doyle, with Smith.
Porter & Co as surety in the sum of 5000,
for indemnification of L. Jefferson Street.
The corporation had signed through its
officers and seal, which was not the origi-
nal understanding. bat MeSsrs. Smith and
Porter were present, with their attorney,
Col. Thompson, aud offered to sign il as in
dividuals providing its wording was chang
ed. The Council has an idea that the brick
in the whole street or the greater part of
it will 60 to pieces, in which ease they
will require the contractors To repave il,
and they will not accept the street until
they have a good bond 20 that effect. The
bond prepared so provides, but Messrs
Smith aud Porter wanted it changed so as
to provide for patching, which could be
continued for the live years, and leave
poor street after ali.
The matter was thoroughly Diseased,
and the Council refused to agree to any
change being made in the bond and Messrs
Smith aud Porter and their counsel left
the room. It seemed strange that they
were willing to and did sign it as a corpora
tion, and attach the corporation seal, and
Yet not he willing to attach their individu
al signatures.
Several samples of paving brick manu-
iIctured by the Freeman Bros. of Toronto,
Ohio, were presented to Council, and will
be tested by the Engineer.
Warrants were ordered to he drawn to
f. F. Hughes for 1924, on account al
sewers, and to Long Il Doyle Tor $1,000 on
work done on W. Jefferson street aud Cen
tire avenue.
The subject of public nuisances was dis
cussed A terrible nuisance is said to ex
ist near the Parkin row in Springdale, and
it was suggested that the Grand Jury of
the county then in session be called upon
to investigate it.
Mr.. Klingier appeared in regard TO the
board walk ordered built on North St He
thinks it unnecessary and the matter was
referred to the Sidewalk Com.
Alex. Mitchell presented the new plot of
McKee's lots and it was referred to the

Mr.. J. n. Muntz appeared in regard to
the water allowed to course down the old
