THE STREET RAILROAD DIFFER
ENCE.
A Special Meetinn of the City Coun-
cil is Called for Tomorrow.
The public improvement committee
met this morning to consider the ques-
tion of the location of the West Com-
merce street car line and what the
street car company would do. Mr. Rea-
gan Houston of the firm of Houston
Bros. attorneys for the street car rail-
road. was present on behalf of their cli-
ents and positively refused to accept the
committee’s suggestion Hint the present
track be removed from West Commerce
street to Buena Vista street or to bear
any part of tbe improvement expenses.
All the company would agree
to do was to take up the
track and lay it down again in the same
manner. This proposition apparently
was not satisfactory to the committee
and as work is stopped on the street
pending settlement of the matter it
was thought desirable that prompt ac-
tion be taken. Die mayor then Issued a
call for a special meeting of the city
council to be held at 10 o'clock tomorrow
morning when an ordinance governing
the case will be presented tu that body.

The Manufacture of Sauerkraut.
The busiest persons in this city at
present are those of a calling which
probably is unknown in any other
place in this country. That calling
is the professional cutting of cabbage
for sauerkraut making. The cutter
travels about the city from house to
house from the latter part of October
until the middle of November by
which time the sauerkraut-making sea-
son is over. The father of the busi-
ness is Michael Bruekmau. who has
cut cabbage for Reailings best fami-
lies for many years. There are few
families in this city from the highest
to the lowest that fail to put down
a supply of sauerkraut every fall.
Bruekman alone euts up 200 heads of
cabbage a day during the putting-down
season. His cabbage-cutter lie im-
ported from Germany ami he says
there is not another like it in this coun-
try.
It is the well-to-do families and sa-
loon-keepers who hire their cabbage
cut. although the charge is only one
cent a l ead. The saloonkeepers are
the best of the eabbage-eulters for
they order hundreds of heads cut at a
time. .Sauerkraut for lunch is one of
the delicacies of Reading all the year
round.
During the last half of October and
tbe first half of November Cutter
Bruekman estimates there are not
less than 2.000 heads of cabbage cut
every day for sauerkraut in Heading
or 60000 i cads for the season. Those
who do not hire their kraut stock cut
have cutters of their own or wait their
turn to borrow of a neighbor who has.
N<> Reading household is exactly com-
plete without a cabbage-cutter. The
person who cuts cabbage for kraut
professionally has nothing to do with
the making of the kraut. That is done
by the family and the family in Berks
comity that does not know all tho mys-
teries of sauerkraut making had bet-
ter keep its ignorance to itself. No
family puts down less than ten heads
of cabbage in pickle to “ripen" into
kraut while the cutter frequently ha»
a job of a hundred heads or more to
cut at a single house.— Heading Letter.
Tbe Colonel's Dug.
Colonel Emerson of Auburn Me.
has been given an account of a dog
that became famous during the war.
He belonged to aFortsmouth man who
enlisted at the beginning of the war
and took the dog with him. Both re-
turned safely at the end of three
months; but as the Tenth Maine
passed through Portsmouth on its way
to the front some of the boys stole the
dog and took him with them. His
owner sent telegrams to Boston New
York and Baltimore demanding his
release but the boys laughed and
kept the dog who served two years
with them and then went back to
Maine. T..en the owner tried to get
him but two of the Tenth boys hid
him and carried him to Auburn where
lie re-enlisted with tho Twenty-ninth
Maine and again went to the front
and was killed at Sabine Cross Roads.
He loved a battle and became terribly
excited in action barking ami gnaw-
ing at the earth where the bullets
struck.

DAYLIGHT.
elf a gentleman by
the name of Day
volunteers to throw
tbe light of his ex*
perience into tbe
darkened places of
misery so that
others may go and
do as be has done
and enjoy life may
it not be reasonably called daylight?
As for instance take the case of Captain
Sargent 8 Day Glouceeter Mass. who
writes April 16 1H81: “Some time ago I
was suffering with rheumatism. I used a
small portion of St. Jacobs Oil and waft cured
at once. I have used it for sprains and never
once have known it to fail. I will never be
without a bottle.” Captain Day also re-
ceived a circular letter and in reply under
date of July 1 1887 he says: “I used tbe
Oil as stated and was permanently cured of
rheumatism by its use.” During the inter-
vening six years there had been no recur-
rence of the pain. Also a letter from Mr. H.
M Converse of the
Wa rr e n (Mass.)
Herald dated July «
9. 1887 as follows: W ifF \
“In response to
yours of June 22 ZSifv-’Wi A'
would say that in
1880 my wife had a
severe attack of mLo
rheumatism in
shoulder and arm.
so that she could
not raise her hand
to her head. A few
applications of St
Jacobs Oil cured her
permanently and she has had no return of
it.” Another case is that of Mr R. B. Kj’le
Tower Hill Appomattox county. Va. who
writes November 1886: “Was afflicted for
several years with rheumatism and grew
worse all the time. Eminent physicians
gave no relief; had spasms and was’ not ex-
pected to live: was rubbed all over with St.
Jacobs Oil. The first application relieved
the second removed the pain continued use
cured me ; no relapse in five years and do as
much work as ever.” These are proofs of tbe
perfection of the remedy and taken in con-
nection with the miracles performed in other
cases it has no equal.
