A Peculiar Accident.

AS a result of peculiar accident in
a Queensstreet store Mr.. John Mengle
is suffering with two broken ribs at
his home on South Queen street.
Mr.. Mengle' S non-acquaintance with
the workings of one of the spring
seats in the store of II. @. Berry was
the cause of the accident. He arose
from the stool on which he was sit
ting to use the cuspidor and when he
was in the act of resuming his seat he
discovered that the seat had sprung
back against the counter; but the dis
covery was made too late for him to
stop in his descent toward the floor.
His side struck the edge of the stool
and two ribs We're broken.
Mr.. Mengle was placed in car
iage and taken home and is now suf-
fering with the broken ribs. He is
getting along very well, however, and
it is not thought that anything seri-
Gus will result from the accident.

It'll Expanding.

Expansion seems to be the watch
word Of the Crawford Wooden Com
pany. The company has gradually
inreased its plant until it has grown
from an infant industry to an in
dustrial giant and now il is engaged in
making the plant still larger.
Work is progressing ON the erection
Of brick storage house at the south
eastern end of the main building. The
new building will be 30XS0 feet and
one story high.
There seems to be no limit of the
expansion Of this enterprising indstry.
The business was started at Bruce
town, Va. as small country wooden
mill In the spring of 1890, at the soli-
citation of the citizens of harrisburg,
the businessswas removed here. They
started in this city with four looms
and employed eleven hands, occupying
a part Of the building known as the
Skating Rink.
In 1894 it was incorporated as a
stock company, with W. H. Craw-
ford president, til. Dunn vice presi-
dent, f. NJ Crawford treasurer, and
u. S. q. Pitzer secretary.
The plant has been increased from
yearIto year, until now it occupies
over 10000 feet of floor space, EN-.
ploys. over 200 hands oDeratip0 AZ
looms and six sets of cards. The
grounds of the company at the south.
ern end of the city, covered with nu.
merous buildings in which men and
women are busily employed, now
looks like a bee hive of industry
The new building will give space
for the storage of large amount OF
goods manufactured at the mills.

Another Fire.

A serious conflagration in the
house of Mrs. A. f. Stribling, corner
S. Queen and John streets was mar
rowly averted last evening about s
O'Clock by the timely notice of
flames in the house by some of the
stone quarry men standing OH the OPP
posite side Of the street.
The occupants of the house had
gone away and left hanging lamp
burning in the hall. During their
absence the wick in some manner be-
came high in the lamp and the heat
from the flames melted the solder on
the ring on which the lamp was hang
ing. The lamp dropped to the floor
setting the carpet and the floor on
fire. The flames were eating their
way up the stairway when they were
noticed.
The men who discovered the fire
Immediately gained entrance to the
house and soon had the blaze extin-
guished
The wall paper carpet floor. and
stairway were slightly damaged. The
loss discovered with insurance in COM
panies representediby Mr.. p r. Har-
rison, and will be promptly paid.

Over the special meeting Of City
Council held yesterday afternoon May
or Pro TEN w. r. Kline presided and

The meeting was very brief, having

Gently sent to Washington by the
Council, which business was disposed
Of in short order.
Mayor Pro Tenn Kline, chairman Of
the committee, reported verbally
that1they had seen Congressman Day
ton.and other Government officials In
Washingtonsand that the results OF
theirFtrip had been very satisfactory.
He stated that after the officials were
acquainted with the facts--the ex-
pense of constantly cleaning out the
cesspool and the menace il is to the
health of the city--they were hearth
Iy in favor of the proposition to con
meet it with the city sewers. They
wanted, however, a written argee-
ment drawn up and signed by the Mar
tinsburg officials and presented to
them for their approval, after which
it is toEbe presented to Congress by
Representative Dayton and the appro-

The city has dropped the idea Of en-
plying the city's refuse into the Tus-
carora, which stream is gradually di-
minishing and. the refuse in such a
small stream would be menace to
the stock which drink out of the
creek.
The plan now proposed is to extend
the sewer.to the Opequon and then
the beginning ofaa complete and ex-
cellent sewerage system will be made.
The Council decided upon a brief
agreementEto.be presented at Washing

were instructed to sign it. The con-
tents ofIthe agreement, in brief, are
that the Government appropriate
