 ID. J. Mahaney is about to erect another block on Bank street. He will remove the house number 800 to the rear of the premises and will erect hand some structure in front.
 The residents of certain section of Brooklyn, are wondering why the gar bage collector never calls in their vicin- ity. They think they are entitled to the same treatment as other sections of the city Tn that matter.
 Instr uctions are given nightly this week to large class of boys and girls, at St Patrick's 5 church, who expect to re- ceive the sacrament of Conformation from Bishop McMabon next Sunday afternoon.
 That Brooklyn is growing district no oneswill gainsay. The fire commits sioners are not aware perhaps of the number of dwelling houses erected in | the. last year or two, on thesslower end of | Charles and South Leonard streets, also Fifth, Fourth and other streets, in that vicininy. The people in that section want fire alarm box put up, as there ia none now nearer than the Proctor hose house, which is quite a distance from the places mentioned. We believe box was ordered in that locality some time ago, but for some reason it has never been put up.
 The reporter on his travels through Brooklyn this morning was taken ny a city truckman to the corner of Sixth and South Leonard streets, where g temporary drain had been built to carry across the street an overflow. of water from the surrounding hills. Its.~sis now approaching a cold season and unless something is done at once to remedy the evil, the same trouble will be mel with at this corner as last year. The water has such force that it has already cut a deep gully into the bank ano shows conclusively that in some man ner it should be run under the street As it is now it will form block of ic' across the street from two to five fee in height. The street inspector las winter was compelled to cut away tn ice obstruction on two occasions.

An Unconscious Woman Shifted at by
 Lion, but Not Injured.
 The circus gave Tecumsell, Ala, ex- citement enough on a recent Sunday to last it for year, says the Atlanta Con- stitution. Forepaugh's show travelled on four trains. As it is against the Georgia laws to run through this state on Sunday it was decided to stop at Te- cumseh and feed the animals and rest. At all the stations there were large crowds and at Tecumseh there were several hundred when the last train ap- preached. As it was slowing down one of the ferocious lions managed to tear off the door of it's cage. Hector, which was the brute's name, thrust his head out right in the faces of a group of ne groes who were standing on the plat form. They could not have been worse scared if the evil one had dropped down among them. Hector made a leap, with open mouth, into the crowd. Such scattering and such yelling were never seen or heard in Alabama. Some of the negroes fell down in abject fright, but the most of them struck off for home on hard run. A dozen tried to climb telegraph poles. One man sprang down 3 well. Hector lit on his feet, but rolled over and over. When he got up there was hardly a man, woman or child within fifty yards. One woman, though, who had falnted was lying near the lion. With one bound he was on her, his ugly teeth showing and his tongue rolling out. The people who were look | ing on were mortified. The tanner was long way off and there was no one | near with pistol or rife. To attempt | to rescue her would be almost certain death. To the astonishment of every one the beast, instead of mangling the woman, simply sniffed the body, turned it over with hls paws, and after eyeing it suspiciously walked off leisurely. He thought that the woman was dead. Hector was recaptured and recaged | without trouble.
