The 4-year-old son of John Zintle.
of 21O North Bromley avenue, ate some
tar Wednesday and had a narrow es-
cape from death in consequence. In
rclaying it's track on Washburn street,
the Scranton Railway company uses
a quantity of tar which seems to have
quite a fascination for the children
oil the neighborhood who, strange to
say, have found it palatable.
Some of the older children would
roll the tar up in the form of pills and
give it to the younger ones, telling
them it was candy. In this way quite
a quantity of tar found it's way into
the stomachs of children of that vicin-
ity, one of whom was the Zintle boy.
He became so i'll that his parents call
ed in DR.. Longstreet who quickly dis
covered the cause of the trouble. Acid
contained in the tar is poisonous and
almost had a fatal effect in this in
stance.
The Zintle child is now out of dan
ger, but several others are said to
be in precarious condition.

Not many arrests are being made
during the warm. wedding days Of
June by the members of the West

feature" Early yesterday morning a
gang of hoodlums were bent on dis
turbing the whole community in the
vicinity of Sherman avenue and Jack.

Patrolman Kiah Peters, who had
been noting their movements for some
time, cautioned them. They said
things. Among them was one fellow,
young, big and foolish, who was also
emphatic. He got arrested, not with
out tussle during which he drew d
club similar in shape to a policeman's
day club and endeavored to resist"
In police court yesterday morning he
paid fine of S. out of a roll of S2O's
and left his club, which was heavily
loaded as a memento. His name is
John Johnson, and he resides on Sher-
man avenue.

GRADING THE STREET.

In this column it was noted recently
that Select Councilman Frable, of the
Nineteenth ward was about to make
a third and final effort to have the
property owners in the 600 block on
Hickory street sign a petition asking
that the street be graded at their ex-
pense. The desires of the many were
laid low by the few. there being two
who refused to comply with the pro-
visions of the paper. The property
holders, however, are determined that
two objections shall not fruS'rate the
improvement. Accordingly they have
asked Mr.. Frable for profile of the
grade for that block.
The work of grading is about COM
pleted, as far as can be gone. None
will lay fagwalks or pave the cutters
for the present. The work done is g
marked Improvement over the abom.

FINDING TAR RIVER.
New York Press.)

There is really and truly Tar river in
North Carolina, but some folks will not
believe it. An old Johnny Reb sends the
following story of how the Yankees
found it:
'When the Confederates evacuated
Washington, n. c., they rolled 1000
barrels Of tar and turpentine into the
river at Taft's store, and two months
later a steamboat, the Colonel Hill, with
400 Yankee prisoners going from Sails
bury to Washington to be exchanged
tied up at the wharf to let the boys
battle. They stirred up the tar on the
bottom of the river and were smeared
with it from head to foot. When we
came upon them each man had his ra-
tons of meat in one hand and a small
stick in the other, scraping and greasing
for dear life. Hello, boys! What's
the matter" j asked. and they replied
''Durn if we haven't found Tar river ut
last; the whole bed is covered with
pitch"
