AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN
Trouble in Keeping Gas Pipes Free From
Ice.
Social Affairs Mark the Holiday Sea-
Shooting Affair Reported.

The police have reported that over one
hundred gas lamps were put out on Tues
day and Wednesday evenings through the
accumulation of boar frost in the pipes, in
spite of the efforts Of the gas company's
men to keep them clear, through the in
strumentality of aIchohol lamps, poor
whisky, etc. 1t seems that in the early
morning after the lights have been extin-
guished the frost gathers for some dis
lance down from the tips This in itself
would offer but very little Interference to
the passage of the gas When the sun
comes out, however, that frost nearest the
top is melted through the heat of the day
and falls in liquid form to the first
bend. There it freezes when the sun goes
down again, after completely clogging the
pipes.
Shot to Kill.
Gruber w. Castle, a boatman, well-known
on the canal and by merchants and ship
pers here, shot at Van l.. WOLF, night be-
fore last, four times. Two Of the bullets
passed through the intended victims coat
and the third ploughed its way into his
pocket, where it was later found. The
shooting took place on the upper canal,
and was instigated by jealousy: Wolz
wife. The shooter has been placed under
81 600 bail. WOLF ran for a long distance
on being fired at, and for some time look
ed upon himself as being seriously In
jured.
