Master Car Builder Chamberlin and Yardmaster Mahoney say they base no knowledge of any movement to start a reading-room in the Central yards except the project of the Young Men's Christian Association, and that is awaiting the action of the anthorities in New York city. Saspicion was atoused A week ago, when Sidney E. Adams, president of the Young Men's Christian Association. gave a sum of money.
Believing that all was not right, he called on Secretary Thatcher of the Railroad Brauch, who said he did not believe that the man had any right to collect any money, An inquiry convinced him of that fact, it being found that he WAB in the habit of making visite every few weeks, and claiming that the library was in running order. To C. B. Armstrong, a few dars ago, he stated that he had already collected $1,800, bat how moch truth there was in that statement cannot be be learned antil the man is foond.

MR. DRAKE PROTESTS.
The Alderman From the Eleventh Has Something to Say 'Abont the Steamer Periwinkle, Editor Evening News: My Las been collad to attention articles pabli-hed from tiara to 10 your to have happuned. to the Perimickle, and. loving that you would not willingly publish a falsehood, knowing that it must affect the interasin involved, being of the who have pat money in the ezunfortunates cortion I LavA taken the liberty of making few contra-statements and adding that they are easily provided. In the Fret place the steamer 15 constructed that it renders safer than any other craft ronning of the of Botfaio, having been bolt with the poemible convention a boat. the instead of being abont eighframes spaced teen inches apart, 89 in ata made ODe solid throughont bottom and caniked before her outside planking put GU, rendering het impregnable shoald she strike the bottom, and also making her -tishle onder heavy deck load.
When we purchased this steamer and converted her to the present shape, we bad her thoronehly examined by A board of insurance inspectors composed of such Captain- W. D. Robinson, Geo. Me Leed and F. Marion, and we bold their certificate of her thoroughly sound condition.
Since we hare operated her, with the exception few minor which happen to a ali crafts, nothing has transpired which -hoold dis turb the nerves of the most timid. Such a thing the craft leaking has never been expericaced daring the four seasons we have operated her, The fact that she has carried over one half million passengers within this time withont imperiling the life of one should exempt her from these baseless fabrications, bat it does not, for instance the account pablished in vonr paper last Wednesday to the effect that a large hole WAR stove in her -bottom and -ashocket wAS broken off her wheel, was withont one particie of foundation, except that the steamer WAS down the river with 8 full load of of passengers and that a very heavy etorm came up, that it was so strong that the dock she was moored to was not able to hold her, but the steamer was ably manned and under full control of her officers and no one was in danger, although mAny of them received A wetting, an unpleasant experience that many had riding in carriages or street cars daring that storm. In conclusion I beg to say that no safer steamer or one better fittad for her work or better manned than the steamer Periwinkle fonts the waters today. MARCUS M. DRAKE, BUFFALO, July 23, 1887.
Put it in Your Serapbook, Advertising is being fast reduced to a science. The meteorological record compiled by Barnes, Hengerer which appears in our adverfining columns today, gives all the data concerning the temperatare of our leading cities daring the month of July.

It is safe to say that five families out of ten keep a scrapbook. The city of Baffalo has nearly 255,000 inhabitants, which divided by 2 gives 127,500, the numbar of honseholdere.

The message will appear in a later edition of THE NEWS. Water! Editor Ercuing News. I noticed in your yesterdav's issue an excellent sod timely editorial on the present iceoffcient management of the Water Department.
pow come to such pans that it is a mooted question whether the Water Commin: -ioners or the taxpayers are the owners of the mains. With autocratic air these presumable servants of the people tie back in their seats and serenely wave aside complaints which if spoken all at once would equal the din of Babel. It is time to' call a balt on this method of condacting a public department. On Sanday the sopply is inadequate. to meet the needs of a great city like this; and for the Water Commissioners to deny this fact, as they do, in the face of the positive knowledge of the whole city is an example of monumental nerve calcolated to take away one's breath or cause change in the Commission.
Look at the resolt of this official negligence in the matter of the water sopply at the Ziegele fire. There, it is stated on good authority, the actiou of the water mains was too weak to sapport the demands of the fire department. Such condition 6f affairs calls for a speedy remedy, for it threatens, in case of accidents, to be a merioos evil to the basiness interests of the city. THE News deserves great credit for the prompand vigoroas notice it has directed to this abase. Yours gratefally, SUBSCRIBER.

There is great feeling throughout the green isle.

GOT AWAY LIKE TWEED. McGarigle, the Convioted Obicago Boodler, Takes a Walk Tastead of a Bath. CHICAGO, Jaly 25. -W. J.
McGarigle, the convicted I boodler, has escaped. Sheriff Matsoa drove to the latte's bone in Lake View Satorday eventoz. Both entered the boose. MoGarigle greeted his wife and children affectionately hod all entered the front room. In a few McGarigle went apstairs to see the taby, Sheriff Matson remaining down stairs in the front room.
P'resently be descended and said he would like to take a bath. He weat into the bath room with his wife, closed the door, and Sheriff MatBOD heard Mre. McGarigle tell the domestic to bring some clean clothing for Me. McGangle. He heard the water ronning in the bath tub.
He waited awhile for the bath, and then anked McGarigle's little girl to tell her father to hasten. The child did not come back, the sheriff grew suspicions and called McGarigle. No response was retarned, and in answer to the sheriff's inquiries Mr. MeGarigle raid that her husband inost be still in the bath. The Sheriff at once made for the bathroom, and upon entering saw that MeGarigle had not changed his underwear, and had not been in the bath.
He had disappeared. The Sheriff ran out of the house, searched the yard and the outhouses, And finally roamed throughout the neighboring varda, bot was noble to find a trace nt tris He to the est statION, the patten of tho entire eity EGOD aroused, detectives by scores began to scour the city. and every policeman was ordered to the that remain on duty indentately, in hope some of them might run across the ex- Warden. The reason for taking McGarigle home from jail is fond in the fact that State's Attorney Grinnell, for reasons of his own. has had consultations with McGarigle, most of them ontside of the jail.
It was arranged that the two shonid meet at McGangle's hone Satorday night. The State's Attorney from some cabse would not keep the engagement. McGariule was convicted a short time ago for having been engaged in the wholesale robbery of Cook connty, and WAS contenced to three years' imprisonment, and was awaiting the result of a motion for a Dew trial. Althongh McGarigle was in the costody of the Sheriff on the case for which he was convicted, he still under bonds of over S80.000 on other in dictments. His bondsmen ate M.
C. McDonald and a prominent merchant, E. J. Lehman. There is a ramor that McGarigle was kid.

As the residence is within 15 minutes' ride of the pier at Evaneton, where a tug might easily have been taken, the inference is drawn in come quarters that MeGarigle is afloat on Lake Michigan, safe on his way to the Straits of Mackinaw.
