Mr.

Bernard said that according to the terms that the City wished to exact the Electric Light Company must keep 60 lights burning in the City Hall or pay a suni of money even if the new enterprise proved unsuccessful and the Company were to go out of existence the first year.

HOW CERTAIN BOATMEN OBTAIN FUEL A Story About a Trip of Roiulout Tow, That a Certain boatmen, during the season of navigation on the Hudson River, say they experience no trouble in getting coal to cook their meals while going from poit to port.

There is usually one or more coal boats in a tow, and the captains of lumber, grain uud boats other than boats carrying coal, have often been beard to boast that it is an easy matter to obtain tuel. One night recently in a tow that left llondout was a boat loaded with crushed stone of a dark color that resembled coal iu the night. After the tow had proceeded a few miles down the Hudson a captain, carrying a scuttle in his hand, boarded the crushed stone boat and asked the commander if he had any objections to parting with a scuttle of coal from his cargo. The man sahl that he had none, and the pirate with the scuttle filled his metal vessel with the stone. lie returned second time and asked the captaiu if he minded giving another scuttle or two of coal.

Permission was granted as before, aud the poacher carried two loads more ol crushed stone to his boat and starting a fire in his stove poured half a scuttle of the stone ou it. He watched and waited for it to ignite, but it did not, and he iu- wardly cursed bis luck and muttered that it was the roltenest. coal he had ever seen. When be took the supposed coal from the stove to rekindle the tire ho discovered the secret as to why the would not bum. He again returned to the crushed stone boat, not lor cnal this time, but to ask the Captain to nothing about this matter, and treat when we get to York." A Story of Barber's In some barber shops iu New-York City glass pistols are used to spray hay rum over the faces of customers.

A rigger on the harmless weapon is pulled, and the bay rum shoots out. On a Sunday morning, recently, a Kingston mail was in New-York. He wanted to get shaved. The hour was earlv, ami the only barber shop that he could find open was a low, dingy place, kept by a looking" Italian. However, he was anxious to get shaved, and he entered the place with misgiving.

Tbe Italian noticed that his customer was nervous, and he flourished the razor in a murderous way. After the shaving was completed the barber took out of a box a glas3 pistol to sprinkle bay rum over his face. The Kingston man had never seen or heard of such a tousorial device, and he at once made up his mind that the barber was going to shoot and rob him. Bounding out of the chair he knocked the Italian down and ran from the shop and disappeared before his innocent victim could realize what had happened. When the Kingston man learned his mistake he was then actually afraid to return to the shop and pay for his shave aud apologize to the bar ber.

In The Horse Cars Hero. Amusing incidents happen almost daily in the Kingston City horse curs. Occasionally people from out back board a horse car at the West Shore crossing, and ques. tions such as Whars Me capting of dis ere the conductor to take our fare? Who do we pay, ore asked. Some times a individual or two will try a little game.

One day last week two gay young country cliaps redolent of hair oil and bay rum were among the passengers of a crowded car. After much liern- ingaud hawing they handed a quarter out to ibe driver evidently expecting him to deduct two fares and pass' the remaining money to them. They winked and looked very wise when they found 25 cents in change in tlje envelope handed back to them and the better oiled of the two men slipped the entire amount into his pocket. When made finally to understand that they must pay or get off, the oilv individual strutted pompously up and pushing out the flap over the hole where change is made he dropped a dime on the platform.

II. Caual Mules. It is a common sight these days to see mules following in the wake of wagons. These animals, after working hard for about eight months towing boats on the oanu), are considerately given a rest by their owners. And such a rest! Many of the poor beasts are compelled to stand in the cold air all winter long and feed on what they can pick up.

A mule has been known to catch chickens and cut feathers and all, so starved has the animal been. Some farmers work their charges aud feed them well. As a whole the mules are a sorry-looking set when they return to town in the spring. They are so thin and their skins set so ldosely on their bones that their hides flap ut everv step they take. A cabbage leaf on the street is scented a block awav by the average mulo.

Qtte of these animals will follow a load of hay all duy. Thomas Penny Still Missing. No trace of Thomas Penny, a builder, who disappeared from Rondout, on Tuesday morning, lias been found. Mrs. Penny, who is almost distracted at the absence of her husband, said to a reporter of The Freeman: I do not know what to think about the disappearance of my husband.

He left the house iu his working clothes, lie had been forking hard lately. Since his partner in business died be sat up lute nights straightening up the books of the firm. The widow of his former partner wanted settlement of the business and my husband was anxious to get tbe matter out of the way. The two men had such faith and trusted each other so im- plictly that not much attention had been given to the books. This fact troubled ray husband, and I suggested to him that he hire book-keeper.
