THE BREAK IS NOT SERIOUS Orders Issued By the Water Department Steelton Gets Some of Harrisburg's Overflow. Steeltonians must once again do without the luxury of street sprinkling for an indefinite time. Last night, the engine at the pumping station, which hau been working steadily for some time past, broke down; and since then the Water in the. reservoir has been steadily going down. To day the Board of Water Commissioners, having decided' that the utmost economy must be enforced, issued the following notice, which was distributed throughout the borough: "Positively no use of pave washes will be allowed till further notice.

"All patrons are requested to be economical in the use of water until after the completion of the improvements in progress at the pumping station." Board of Water Commissioners, JOHN D. YOUNG, Secretary. June 11, 1002. Although the supply of water on hand is much too low for convenience, it is thought that there is very little danger of another water famine. The pumping engine will be repaired just as soon as possible, and meanwhile, economy will be by far the wisest policy.

The notice in regard to street sprinkling will be strictly enforced; and the water supplies of all viola ters will be promptly shut off until the payment of the fine, fixed by a recent ordinance. At present, the majority of the streets of the borough are in a tolerably presentable condition; and the dust nuisance, on Front street especially has been considerably abated by the free use of water.

William Inglis was a visitor at a Scotch yacht club on the Clyde during a regatta week, and one night he was called on for a story. Knowing, he says, from books and experience the density of Scotchmen to. American Jokes, he told the broadest, most pointed story he could think of.

It was the eld chestnut of the inebriated Irishman who met a policeman and asked him the "Three o'clock," said the policeman. "Oi didn't hear," said the Irishman. "Three o'clock!" the cop yelled. "Shure, Oi didn't hear that, either." The cop then hit him three whacks on the head with his club. "Did you hear that?" he asked.

"Shure," said Tat, "Oi heard that, and Oi do be fur thinkin' it's glad Oi am that Oi didn't mate ye at twilve." There was not a ripple of appreciation on the rows of Scotch faces before him, said Mr. Inglis. They, one and all, were blank, and slowly each Scotchman drained his whisky to hide the fact. 0 "Suddenly," said Mr. Inglis, "I saw an old Scotchman in the far corner break into a smile.

Slowly he remo.ved his pipe from bis mouth and blew out a cloud of smoke. 'Hoot, he said, 'but ye canna blame the policemon, for a' that. It do be a wee bit hard to be asked the same question three "That is what I call the Scotch result," Mr. Inglis concluded. New York Tribune.

What Grant Saw In Canada. Lord Dufferin when viceroy of Canada paid visit to Washington while General Grant was president He casually asked the president whether he had ever been in Canada. The reply was a striking example of General Grant's brusque outspokenness. ''o; I have never set foot on Canadian soil, but I have approached near enough to its shores in a steamboat to see the grass growing in the streets nf the Canadian towns." Lord Dufferin saw that General Grant shared with many of his countrymen at that time a common misapprehension in regard to the resources and destinies of Canada. London News.
