CELLARS INUNDATED.
Water Soaks Through the
Ground and Gives Prop
erty Owners Much
Trouble.

The cellars along Market and
a few on the other streets, are
full of water. Some have as
much as four feet OF it and siren
uous efforts are being made to
bail it out. For this purpose au-
tomato or ram pumps are in use
in several places and yet the
water does not seem to decrease.
Especially along Market street is
this periodical inundatiOn of a
most troublesome and undeslr-
able nature; after heavy rains or
thawS, the ground seems Saturat-
ed with water, which finds a
ready vent hole into one or more
cellars and from them it is an
easy matter to spread all along
the line.
For over a week the proprietors
of BentZ's saloon, in the base
ment on the corner OF Market and
Church streets. have been pump
ing out the water by automatic
and hand pumps. BY the con-
tinued use of these Instruments
it would seem that they were do
ing service for the neighborhood.
Owing to the fact that their busi-
deSs is carried on in the base.
ment, it is necessary for them to
keep the water under control.
Mr.. G, ii. Eckstien, on Court
street, has had'a pump at work
in his cellar for over week.

tells the following thrilling story
of a robbery accompanied by Il
tiendiSh torture to a woman at
Cavetown, Washington County,
Md, on Monday morning, March
9th:
Lack of faith in banks cost aged
Miss Eliza Waltz $500 and led
robbers t. torture her by most
terrible devices at her home. one
mile south of Cavetown. in Wash
ingtown County, during the early
hours of the morning.
She kept the 1000 in a bureau
drawer in her house and five
mask men, who had learned that
fact, entered the dwelling shortly
after midnight, and upon her re
fuSal to tell where the treasure
was hidden or to admit that it
was III the house at all, the pro-
ceeded with long corn knives to
slit her ears, nose and lips.
Unable to endure the torture,
which was prolonged for an hour,
Miss Waltz finally told the rob
berS where the 81, 800 was secreted
in the bureau drawer.
Then the bandits divided the
sum, and after threatening to re.
turn and kill her il she told any
one of the robbery. one of them
kicked Miss Waltz and they de
parted.
The story, as told by Miss
I Waltz, a woman of 65, and ten
year-old boy, named Hoffman,
her relative, whom the bandits
also bound while they were en-
gagged in their dreadful work. is as
follows: She and the lad lived
alone and she was aroused from
slumber about l o'clock Monday
morning by the five masked men
with drawn corn knives.
"We want the s., 800 you've
got slowed away i'll cupboard, y
said one of the robbers, "and
we're going to have it right
away"
Miss Waltz denied having any
money in the house, but the rob
ber>' spokesman said he knew
she had 900 and named two
men who had told him SO. Again
she entered a denial and there
upon they dragged her from the
bed, bound her with ropes to thC
bedpost and gagged her to prevent
an 0utcrN.
The boy in an adjoining room
was aroused and began to scream
for help. whrreupon the rohber,

| Then the robbers began theil
/ inhuman torture, with the SucceS>
above stated, and after they haC
left with their booty the boy fin
ally succeeded in releasing him
self and unbound the ropes that
held Miss Waltz. A little later
her brother in law, Joseph Hoch,
came on an early morning errand
and found both the woman and
boy too weak and confused to dc
more than tell their story in a
rambling sort of way.
