Hearing by the Commissioners In Regard ts

There was a special meeting in the Commis

operation of electric wires iu the Dis
trict of Columbia pursuant to the act approved
August 6, 1890, the Commissioners of the said
District Khali not permit the construction of '
any conduit or subway for electrical purposes |
in any street or avenue of the city of Washing- I
ton or Georgetown, and any and all unused
permits for constructing the said conduits are |
nerebv revoked.''
Messrs. Samuel M. Bryan, representing tlie

and A. A. Thomas of the United States Electric
Companv were present at the hearing.

permit* on hand, and they claimed it

committee. Then the interested parties could
appear befo.*e the committee and argue the

He had rend the Herahl while at school in Car
lisle and wished to show what progress he had
made us a literary scholar since his return here.
He tells ine he was about two weeks "making"
the "poem." It is entitled "The Close of Hos
tilities' ' and reads as follows:
The battle of Wounded Knee,
It was a fearful ?i?"t?t to t**e.

In a Smoky Town.
From th* Detroit Free Press. .
"You'vejust come from St Louis, eh! How
do you like the town?" asked one commercial
traveler of another one a few days ago.
"Don't like it," replied the other.
"No?"
"No; too smoky."
"Oh, well.other cities are smoky, too. There's
Cleveland, Chicago??"
"But St. Louis is real smoky.
"Yes, but "
"I got iu at 10 o'clock at night, went to the
Southern Hotel, went to bed. I hadn't slept
for two nights and I was tired. Well. I woks
up after awhile, lit a match and looked at my
watch. Half-piist 11. Turned over and settled
down for more sleep. Got to thinking; couldn't
sleep: rolled over on the other side and tried
it again. Couldn't sleep. Tossed around;
1 o'clock. 2. 3 o'clock. By this time I was
scared: thought I was sick. Got up and
opened the window. Ah! Smoke rolled
in and made me *ick snre enough.
Then I thought the house was afire and looked
for the fire escape, bustled on my clothes, and
then, by George! the truth began to dawn on
my benighted mind. Jerusalem'. wasn't I mad
when I went down to the office and found it
was ( o'clock in the afternoon. Lost a whole
dav's business: lost two meals, and paying W
a dav; worried myself sick, and all because the
light o' heaven can t get down into St. Louis on
account o' smoke. No, I ain't over much pleased
with St Louis." ,
"That reminds me," said another traveler,
"of whkt a St Louis man (aid to me once. We
were talking of theology and orthodoxy and all
that?he was verv religious?and I asked him if
he reallv believed there would be everlasting
fire in the next world."
"Why sayshe; "'tisbutastep. We have
everlasting smoke in this."
There were three little soft, rippling com
mercial-traveler laughs and then the boys went
off arm inarm.
