Whistle in Use.

The residents of the northeastern part of
the town were surprised this morning by
hearing the blasts of a large whistle at the
Kelley Run colliery. For 26 years bell
has performed the same service at this col
liery that whistles do at nearly all the other
collieries Of this region, and it is still in
service, but if the whistle tried for the first
time this morning continues satisfactory it is
likely that the bell will be given its well
earned rest in the near future. A fact worthy
of special mention in connection with lhe
matter is that the whistle was made entirely
by hand by William Gregory, one Of the
pumpsmen employed at the colliery, and was
presented by him to the Thomas Coal Com
pany. 1t is very ingenious and complete
device and in sound very much resembles
the whistle used at the KohnOor colliery.
1t was used for the 8 o'clock call this morn
ing and the blasts were prolonged to give it
good tests. The bell was used during the
balance of the day, as those who have lis
tened to its peals for so many years, are loath
to put it aside suddenly.

The streets Flooded.

The fall of rain has killed the excellent
sleighing which the people enjoyed the past
few days and the indications are that the
backbone of winter is now broken. The streets
were in terrible condition from an overplus
of water and slush this morning and high
topped boots and stills were in great demand.
Most of the trouble was due to a failure of
people to clean the cutters in front of
their properties. The water and slush flooded
many pavements to depth of several inches
Cries of distress were heard all morning from
the First ward. Supervisor Llewellyn had
men at work and succeeded in opening all
public culverts except one, which is located
at the northeast corner of Centre and
limerick streets, and could not be opened on
account of an accumulation of ice and snow
in it. The Supervisor thinks it will take
considerable work to put the culvert in order.
The culvert on the east side of the cross
ing was filled all day by the rushing waters.
Residents on the north side of Centre street,
between limerick and Union, complained
bitterly of the flooding of their cellars, but
the Supervisor said that trouble would have
been avoided if the cutters had been opened
in good time. He says he has no authority
to open cutters on private properties and will
not do it. He knows from experience
that if he does it for one it will be used as a
precedent by others. Michael Graham, Of
the First ward declares he will prosecute the
Chief Burgess for neglect of duty. He says
two cellars of his properties on East Centre
street were flooded this morning by reason of
neghbor leaving two large dry goods boxes
in the gutter. This afternoon a dense fog
settled in the town and made it impossible to
discern an object in the streets a third of
square distant from a given point.

How She Fixed Him.


He was a theatrical lover, and she
didn't like his style little bit
He was constant in his devotion,
however, and that made matters
worse.
She had tried gentle means to get
rid of him, but he had disregarded
them with painful persistency.
In this moment of her desperation
he felt it incumbent upon him to
propose to her, as men under similar
circumstances often do,
Which they wouldn't if they had
any sense at all.
Dear one" he exclaimed, hurting
himself tragically at her feet, 81 love
you. Ny life is yours Will you
take it?"
She did not look like a murderess.
Mr.. Singleton she responded,
with calm determination, Il will.
He gazed at her rapturously.
Don't do that" she begged, draw
ing back from him as if in horror.
Il have taken your life, as you re-
quested me to do, and you are hence
forth to all intents and purposes
dead"
He seemed dazed.
Il do not, Mr.. Singleton, she con-
tinued turning aside, "desire to have
a dead person in the house, and if you
do not go away at once | will send for
an undertaken and have you removed
to the nearest cemetery"
Then the dreadful situation in
which his own precipitate folly had
placed him was revealed, and he re-
moved himself with promptness and
dispatch.
