NORTH HIGHLANDS LADIES
REMEMBER DAN SULLIVAN
And Now a Guessing Contest is On as
To Whst Hs Will Get
Mr. Dan Sulllv&n la conductor and
motorman on tha North Highlands
car. He nins the car from the monu
ment on Mulberry street to the pa
vilion, and he keops the schedule, leav
ing both points on tli 0 half hours. This
he does rain or shine, and the people
on North Highlands set their clocks
by his going and coming.
There never was a more obliging
street car- man than Dan Sullivan. If
there is anything ho can do for a pat
ron of his lln© ho does It, and he has
such a happy way of doing It.
So on Christmas tho ladles in that
part of tho c!ty thought he ought to
be remembered, but they didn't know
what to give him- He was always go
happy and contented that he didn’t
appear to want anything. This being
tho case, they hit upon an unusual
plan. They made up a purse of 620.40
and deposited it in a first class cloth
ing store, nnd gave Mr. Sullivan the
order on tho store for anything he
wanted to that amount.
Now the ladies are thinking of get
ting up a guessing contest as to what
he will buy. Some aay an overcoat,
some say a suit of clothes, some aay
a -bath robe, and some one thing and
some another. In the meantime tho
North Highlands car goes back and
forth Just the same.

mtlonal banks to have their Institu
tions made depositories of the city's
funds.
A statement was mado at the pre
limlnary hearings of the men under
warrant that 6176.000 had been thus
expended.
While there was no official develop
ment today the alleged corruption In
municipal affairs was forcibly brought

zens. Nearly every -minister, at either
morning or evening services in his
church, olther devoted all or part of
his sermon to the subject.

STORY OF A WHISTLE
TOLD INJNE BLAST
NEGRO FIREMAN MISTAKES THE
WHISTLE STRING FOR THE
BELL CORD AND BLOWS.
John Story will have to tell the
story- of how he came to blow an
engine whistle at the Southern depot
yesterday morning.
The train was at the depot, and
there were more or less passengers
about, ooine scurrying around looking
after baggage, and some telling the
goodbyes, and some buying tho tick
ets. All of a sudden there was a
shrill blast of the whistle, and such
a hustle is rarely seen, beeauso It
was five minutes in advance of tho
leaving time. /
Officer John Smallwood was around
tho depot seeing that the hacktnen
were keeping straight, and ho rushed
around to find the train standing
still.. Then ho thought of tho ordl-
nunco against blowing locomotive
whistles in tho city limits and ho
piled on tho engine to find John Story,
a negro fireman. In the cab, the en
gineer being on the ground looking for
loose screws, or whatever It is they
look after before a train starts.
When Story saw tho officer ho be
gan to explain that he mistook tho
whistle string for the bell string and
he pulled it. Ho swore he did not In
tend to blow tho whistle, and that he
was only trying to ring tho bell. Tho
officer Is not an engineer, but ho
knows the bell cord Is on one side
and tho whistle cord on the other,
and that no fireman would make aueh
a mistake as that, and Htory will tel]
his story to the recorder this morning.
