went to work on the territory contig-

mouth of the creek, extending their OPP
erations as far east as Chapline street
and as far north as Sixteenth. No
definite information could be obtained
as to what was going on, and as a re-
suit the usual new depot rumors were
rife, while a new report was sprung to
the effect that the Company was about
to acquire new territory with a view to
extensive changes and improvements in
this city.
A few days may result in some de-
velopments.

OF the company Of Welsh Singers,
which is to be at the Opera House on
the evening of the Both inst, under
the auspices of the Woman's Musical
Club, the Brockton, Mass, Enterprise
says:
The Welsh singers from Wales
won a triumph over their audience
and over the weather at tho Central
Nj. f. church last evening. There was
a very good audience present despite
the fact that one of the worst storms
Of the season prevailed, and the peo-
pie in the audience were captured and
enraptured by the notably fine pro-
gramme presented"
The Register ~bespeaks for this or
g~anization a large attendance, not
only because Of the intrinsic merit OF
the Singers, but also on account Of the
benefit % accrue TO the Woman's
Musical Club. which deserves every
encouragement.

GOOD OFFICERS.

The following item clipped from the
January number of the Railway Con-
ductor, explains itself:
Division 1870 met in regular session
on December II, "a large amount of
business having accumulated on ac-
count of there being no working quo
rum at the previous meeting. A good
deal of time was occupied with a
question of seniority between two OF
the brothers. Each had a lawyer to
plead his case. Brother Estep epous-
ed one cause, while Brother Carney
took the other. Nothing could stand
before Brother Carney's Irish elo-
quence, and as | listened to him plead
ing the case l thought of Daniel
O'Connell, and it made me feel proud
that M ancestors came from the old
part. The Division decided the SEN
iority and then proceeded to the cleo
ton of officers for 1899. Bro. Mike
Shields was elected C. c.; NJ. NJ. Pat
OF A. C. c.; Z. c. Martin, S. and T.;
R. F. Pell, S. c.; ]. c. Duffy, ]. c.; ].
Wilson, l. S.; j.. S. Lowe, o. s.; and
your humble servant, Correspondent.
We feel proud of officers, and
predict that Division 1870 will take a
boom under such men. Each one is
we'll known t me, and while my
heart goes out to all railroad men,
words fail to express my regard for
these old comrades. One thing is
sure, if railroad men want to prosper
and to see their cause advance they
must have some voice in u national
