NOT ON THE MAP.
TOrrid Cities Deny the Soft
 Impeachment.

Postmaster Thomas is puzzled to know what di.pssition to make of e copy ei ihs San Francisco Call of the issue Of Aug. 24th last. The paper is addressed to Hank Yohnsen, "Wsrm- est Place on Earth" It was for wArded to some place, and the poet master rejected it and wrote on the cover, Not here; try Frssno." l, wac next forwarded ts Bskersfeld, and the postmss,er ss that poiat evi- dently felt insultea and wrote on the cover, "Wkats the matter with Yumaf" IL vas duly forwarded to Yuma, but was sgaia rejected aad fired..o Tucson, where the postm asssr had a spasm, and in high dudgesn added to the many superscriptions s that the only place known to be warmer than Phoenix was not on the map. and as the inference was plain thst it was intended for this city i, was sent here.
 There is . possibility that the paper will continue the rounds until the cover is worn and frsyed, when it will be pat to rect in a waste baskst.--Gs- zette.

VITO WAS THRIFTY.
Tie Put Together all the Goods He Could
Lay His Hands on and Was
Arrested.

When Joseph Cassesse suspected
Nallene Vito. one of his employees at
the Roma hotel of stealing he little
thought how greatly he was in the
right. a search warrant yesterday
was instrumental in recovering one of
the biggest patches Of goods ever eX-
hibtad outside of Il department store.
Their were shoes of severa! sorts
and sizes, pieces Of soap, steel knife
sharpcner couple of nut crackers, over
shoes, spools of thread, scissors, a re-
volver, jewelry including cuff buttons,
pins, brooches, campaign badges. a
gold watch: also clothing Of every de-
scription towels, han1kerchiefs, shirts
laundried and otherwise. socks and
stockings, Underclothing-in fact a
regular Christmas box.
These, it is alleged, Vito picked up
during his three years run as cook
at the Roma hotel on LackaWanna
avenue The whole batch was recov-
cred bY Deputy Sheriff Thomas Jordan,
of Alderman w. S. Millar's court.
Cassesse, the keeper of the hotel ap-
pcared before Alderman Millar yes
tcrday morning and made a complaint,
He suspected that Vito, whom he had
discharged for a trivial offense a few
hours before, had some of the Cass-
essa property IN the room at the hotel
which he was then clearing for his
departure elsewhere.
So Cassesse had the search warrant
| issued. Vito had removed The goods
from the hotel to a house at 81 Centre
street Here Deputy Sheriff Jordan
found the booty hacked in bags.
Enough Of the stuff was carted to
Alderman Millars office to make out ;,
case against Vito What is mentioned
above is only a small part of the whole
! booty found i'm Nito's possession. The
| batch recovered was distributed upon
| several tables in the aldermans office
and Vito, who in the meanwhile had
| been arrested, was brought to answer
the charge of larceny. Mr. Cassesse
| ideptihed most of the goods as his prop.
| erty: Vito denied having stolen any
| thing. He claims that he purchased
| the goods.
| Despite Vitos claim the patent leath,
| er shoes are Sc Ieral sizes too large fol
| him and the big batch of clothing
| could not possibly he made to fit.
! Vito was committed to the centra
! police station for further hearing this
morning. Mr.. Cassesse claims to have

THAT TROUBLESOME SEWER.
Examined Yesterday by CITY Engine
Ger and street Commissioner.

An examination of the interior of the
Pine Brook creek sewer with a view
toward remedying its periodical chok-
ing and backing water in the vicinity
Of Washington avenue was yesterday
made by City Engineer Phillips and
Street Commissioner Dunning. They
entered its mouth at the LaCkawanna
river and walked through it to its
source near the Boies wheel works.
The cause of the trouble was located,
but the means of overcoming 1t ana
the cost will be determined later by
the city engineer.
The sewer Is four feet in height east
and west of Washington avenue. AT
the latter point the culvert was orig
inally eight feet in diameter. A few
years ago two feet of masonry was
laid in the bottom and two feet in the
roof of the culvert to conform to the
heighth east and west, but it remained
eight feet in width two extra feet on
each side. 1t is this extra width which
has caused the choking. The current
throws its refuse along either side of
the culvert where ii aCcumulates until
a tremendous fall of rain either washes
it clear or adds more tlotsam to what
has already been deposited.
The choking sometimes extends to
west of the mouth Of the Phelps street
branch, which in turn causes annoy
anCe.
1t is believed that by making the size
of the culvert conform in heighth and
width to the other parts of the sewer
the trouble can be overcome. This will
cost i'm the neighborhood of four or five
hundred dollars, though the exact
amount cannot be determined until the
city engineer prepares his report to
councils and which will probably be
presented next Thursday night.

An order issued Nov 80 from the
headquarters of the state National
Guard, under the head Of appointments,
contains the following:
Major W. S. Millar assistant adjutant
general, with rank from June S, 1895.
On its face the order means that
Major w. S. Mllar who a few months
ago, resigned his position as inspector
of the Third brigade has been
appointed assistant adjutant gem
eral of the Third brigade, one
of the most coveted positions

upon your appointment as assistant
adiutant general" said Major Oallrord.
Major Minlr was wholly unprepared
for the news. He had not received the
order containing the announcement
ana all Major NIillar knows was gain

when accOsted Colonel Osthaus pro-
duced the order received in Thursdays
mail and the announcement printed
above. Colonel OsthduS said:
i can't think it is mistake. It
seems improbable that an order effect
inc such an important position would
be passed at the state department if
it We're an error" Colonel Osthaus eX-
planned why the order reached him
first in this city-beCauso as retired
officer he receives all orders directly
from Harrisburg.
Major Millar believes the order to be
mistake and that he is re-appOinted
Inspector Of the Third brigade. This
position Major Millar resigned about
| five months ago and this is the first
| official recognition Of his resignation
received from Harrisburg. The refer
| encc to June S, 1895, is the date on
which Major Millar received his COM
