One year ago ttie Reformed peopleile-cided
to build a church at It ifisdale and
they immediately set about the work,
with the result that on Sabbath last, as
hud been announced in these columns,
the new edifice was dedicated, only a
few dollars of the $2,100 of cost remain
ing unpaid. Rev. Trtixol, of Manor,
preached the sermon from the divine
words: “The Son of M in hath power to
forgive sins on earth.” Following the
discourse, Rev. Garner, the pastor, read
a statement of the church finances when
a collection raised the balance of out
standing debt, some If 800, except about
$170. The pastor in charge then read
the regular consecratory service of the
church, and in the closing exercises was
assisted by Revs.Ferner, of Mt. Pleasant
and Mase, of Greensburg. Excellent
music was furnished by the choir of St.
Peter’s Reformed church of tliis place.
The new church is a plain but very
neat frame structure, although the inside,
with its hard-wood work, presents a
most attractive appearance. The altar
and pulpit, the gift of Mr, Hannah
Hartzell, of tills place, and her daughter,
Mrs. J. F. Nalev, of Manor station, are
perfect models of handiwork, and the
house as a whole reflects great credit
upon the Christian zeal of its builders.

Messrs. 8. 0. Kelley, Wilson Shields.

has for its members H. v. Kelly,
Horst, Reynolds A Co., John Sandies,
.V N. McGrew, J. F. McMillln, William
Hunter, James Hunter ami Elmer Gal-cy.
Tills company will likely console
lale with the first one formed and the
entire slate lie handled by the new cor-poration
that will he a limited concern.
A meeting will ha called for that purpose
on the return of J. 8. Craddock who ia
expected home to day. It is altogether
urohable that the separators furMaryland
is well ns Hits stale will lie manufac
11red here at the planing mill of Mural
Reynolds A Co.
A sample of Hie machine is on exhi

timothy seed. 1 bushel redtop or herd
grass; take them altogether, as one
combined mixture, and ut one lime run-ning

the change of • screen, or the use
of any blast of air, sud each and every

A BROWNSVILLE FARMER FLEECED
Ilk Fxactly the Same Wmy as Wm Farmer
William llnruliitrt.
Nelson Porter, an aged, respected and
wcll-to do farmei living two miles soutli
of Brownsville, was victimized out of
$1,250 Thursday in precisely the same
way as waa Farmer Win. Barnhart, of
Mt. Pleasant township, about one year
ago. A stranger drove up to Mr. Porter’s
place and had him go along to see a farm
the caller said he wanted to buy. Before
going iar they met asecond stranger and
a game of cards was the result, Mr. Por-ter's
companion playing for the farmer.
The partners won $5,000 by agreeing to
bet $2,500, but tiie loser refused to pay
unless tiie winners put up the $2 500.
Mr. Porter went at once to Brownsville
and drew his half,$1,250, from the bank,
went hack and handed it to his partner
who left at once, saying he would square
up in the near future. The duped far-mer
finally tumbled to his situation and
went again to Brownsville during the
afternoon where the two sharpers were
waiting for the train; but they got off
before Mr. Porter could have them ar-rested.

Twenty Grain* nf Strychnine Don
(lie Diailly W ork (Inlrkly.
Last Thursday James Ihigal dropped
into Cliarles Kuhn’s drug store, In tbc
Last End, aud asked tbo clerk, Harvey
Mel linger, for some poison, with which
to kill a worthless dog. The caller’s
mien was that of a xian who had nil his
faculties unimpaired and ho was given a
box ol “Rough on Rats.” He took the
poison and left, but returned early Fri
day morning, saying that the venomous
mixture had failed to do the work and
he wanted something more deadly.
There being nothing in Dugal’s looks or
act ions to arouse suspicion, tiie cleric gave
him twenty grains of strychnine saying
that this prescription would turn up the
toes of any dog in a very few minutes.
Dngnl went at once to his home at the
new Standard shaft where lie pulled out
a half pint bottle of whisky and the
poison in llie presence of a d< tnesiic,
saying that he was n« w going Intake his
own life; he had tried “Untigli on Rats”
the day before and failed, but heguessed
there would bo no failure with stneh
nine. With tliis be put the deadly alka
ioid into tiie whisky aud drank probably
half of the contents. Very little atten-tion
was paid to his threats, which were
t lifnight to be the harmless inuUerings of
a drunken man, and it was not until the
poison had almost finished its deadly
work that medical aid was summoned.
I(was then too late and the poor dis-eased
mind was at rest long before the
doctor arrived.
Tiie deceased was a Canadian who
came to this part of tho coke region about
six years ago when he soon afterwards
married the daughter of Joseph M< Her
mott. lie lately built himself a house
near the new Standard shaft, into which
he moved his wife and three small chil
dren.Until within a week or so ago he
worked about the shaft as a day laborer
Last week be sold his horse, and gave
his wife half tho money. Taking the
other half, some fifty dollars, lie wont on
a spree and was absent from home two
or three days. lie turned up Thursday
penniless and very much dejected. It is
not known for certain how be lost the
money, although it ia alleged that he
was robbed. Tliis loss, together with
the effects of his spree, seemed to have
driven him to self destniction% which lie
lie accomplished with very little trouble,
in the must quiet and orderly manner
possible.
MORE SOUTH PENN TALK.
A Plillii<l«‘lpl>lA llninor Tlmt Would
FIIIIMII Tile Hoad In IHOO.
A dispatch from Philadelphia yester-day
says that a meeting of tho sub-crib
era of the South Pennsylvania railroad
will he held this week to receive the
resignation of the five trustees and to
elect officers and directors of iho com
pany. This is in pursuance of an agree
inent to which tiie trustees huveobtamed
the signatures of almost all tne stock-holders,
providing for a rearrangement
of tiie company’s capitalization hy which
$13,000,000 to complete tiie road is to be
raised. Andrew Carnegie is said to he
tiie prime mover in this project to build
tbe road, and lie is backed by the Pitta
bnrg interests. All the Philadelphia
subscribers have signed Mr. Carnegie’s
agreement, and Messrs. G. F. Baer and
F. B. Gowen are in New York to secure
the assent of the subscribers there.
A subscriber living in the city of
brotherly love adds that i he contracts for
completing the line would be given out
on June 1 and ttiat tiie je«r 1890 would
see this competitor to tiie Pennsylvania
railroad in operation. The scheme is
said to include a 2ff ner cent, assessment
in addition to the 38 per cent, already
subscribed, making $3,000,000 of ready
cash, and the issue of $10,000,000 6 per
cent, fifty-year honds. The assessment
will he represented by preferred stock,
and the original 38 per cent, paid in will
tie given new common stock to that
amount. Tiie suit now pending with
Hie Pennsylvania railroad company, it
is claimed, cannot interfere with these
plans.
THE COKE SITUATION.
our former home being at Storierville,
Pa., I feel like complimenting you for
tiie many items of interest we gain
weekly from the JOURNAL’S newsy col
limns. We came lo Findlay six years
ago, which is now tha great natural gas
center of Ohio. Being, as the owner of
a well, in a position to speak from actual
knowledge, a few lines In regard to our
city’s wonderful growth must prove of
interest to other readers of your paper.
The free gas offer ia drawing on fae
tory after another, in rapid succession,
to Findlay. Within the last week four
large glass factories have located here.
A union depot is being built, with
three new railroads pushing into town.
Last year over 2.800 houses were erected
besides 80 business rooms, and this year
the number of both will far exceed the
figures given. Since January 1 1887.
when we did not have the required
5,090 population to become a city of the
second class,we have grown until to day
we are a city of from eighteen to twenty
thousand, with our hotels crowded
daily.
The pressure gauges on our gas wells
stand to day as they did when tiie wells
were struck, more than a year ago. By
a special act of tbo legislature, Findlay
owns her own gas plant, and to show
you how a town fares when its fuel is
controlled by the citizens, I quote Find

EDCER THOMSON RESUMES,
But tile Knights Slay Owl nSII There May
He Trouble Yet.
After tin* vote of the striking employes
at the Edgar Thomson Steel Works re-sulted
in nothing being done, Mr. Car
negie determined to try his hand and
pine ordeis to start, the plant up yesier
day at tiie reduction and on tiie 12 hour
turn. Captain Jones, tiie General Man-ager,
immediately set about getting
things in shape to carry out tiie order.
Although the Knights of Labor took im
part in the preparations, there were snf-il
ientnon-nnlon men reported on Friday
morning to clean up the machinery and
get it ready for running. As trouble
was feared, the firm brought on from tiie
west one hundred Pinkerton detectives
and placed them in charge of the worts
Saturday night, allowing no ono, except
employes, upon the company grounds.
Furnace A was put in blast yesterday
as a f tarter and other furnaces w ill be
fired up in a few days although
t be presence of the armed guards caused
7' masons to drop their tools and join
the strikers. Everything passed off qni
etly at Braddock yesterday, but when
the minor that outside men would be
given the vacant places if the strikers do
not return to work hy Wednesday got
out among tiie Knights of Labor strikers
ibe excitement created was visible
among them. In one crowd the remark
was made: “We Imvo decided to have
no trouble, to keep away from tiie mills
and preserve the utmost peace. Bui ii
the firm decidcsou bringing a lotof non-union
strangers here we cannot answer
iorilic consequences." It is useless to
deny that there exists much feeling un-der
mi apparently quiet exterior aud
that trouble may occur if strangers are
brought there. Captain Jones is still ot
the opinion that the strikers will return
to work, wtiile tiie Kriigliis still claim
i hat they will win and are, therefore,

Cissy Maythorne enter, laughing boister-ously,
and report that one Major McCord
is dangling from tiie hriinehenofncherry
i nee in the garden. Mrs. Lovebird is de-
' pitted to release him, and hid him with
draw from Iho promises of tbo “Broken
Hearted Club,” Before she can release
llie Major lie comes in, ami hy his lion
eyed blarney isms gains the good will of
the lady before he apparently leaves tho
liremisos. Soon Charles 1‘leydell and
Crank flexor enter; they are disguised
respectively as a piano-forte Inner and u
clock maker's assistant. Cissy Maythorn,
and Camilla Spooner, who are in the
apartment with Mrs. Lovebird when these
two "frauds” enter, very soon recognize
them as their eld sweethearts, and in-dulge
in reminiscences of their ballroom
flirtations. Hero a yery lively and witty
conversation ensues. Mrs. Lovebird be-ing
ignorant of the real character of the
nvn disguised gallants, and failing to get
rid of itiein, she retires to tho garden
Louisa Lipscombs enters, much flurried
and telling Cissy that Arthur Chomley is
at the door and that she will not see the
wretch who had trifled with her afl’ei:
lions. Arthur, however, forces ills way
in past the servant, and loudly denoun-ces
Louisa as a jilt. This brings the lady
to lace him; after a sharp dialogue tiie
Isilv relents, and ends hy allowing Ar-hur
to embrace hot—linnd. Vleydell
snd Flexor come from behind a curtain
embracing their sweethearts’ fingers, an
Mrs. Lovebird comes in. Tliis latter lady
is horrified at the appearance of so many
men, and sets up a violent screaming.
With tliis l.ho Major marches in from the
garden, and the agitated Mrs. L. throws
herself into his arms,figuratively, calling
loudly upon tho gallant soldier to save
i hem all. Here Ida Parke and Araminta
IVilloioby come on, announcing that they
have just received loiters explanatory
from their lovers. Then follow mutual
excuses and forgiveness. Everything
becomes lovely, and the sprightly piece
winds up witli a dance by all the
characters.
Proceeding tho play were a piano
duett, "Chase of the Lion,” by Misses
Mather and CriBswell, and a yoeal solo,
entitled ‘ Leaf and Spray,” by Miss Alice
Warden, both of which were w’ell render
ed andns well received. At the close of the
piece Miss Mai her sang, in her most
pleasant manner, “My Liver is a Sailor
Lad,” and then as a grand finale, Miss
Meath recited “King Robert of Sicily”
and a most fitting close it was lo tbe
evening's pleasant entertainment.
The JOURNAL’S critic has only praise
for Ihe entire performance, barring the
scenes wherein the lovers meet and
make up. Here the effect could have
been greatly lightened by simply etick-ing
to the text, which all real lovere
never fall to follow, it is said, after hav-ing
righted some imaginary wrong.
It was not a bit pretty in so gallant an
old campaigner ae the Major not to em-brace
the lovely Mrs. Lovebird, as "the
hook of rules called for, and what ie
more surprising is that he could resist
the temptation. I’leydell, Flexor and
Chomley are to be roundly censured for
setting the Major the poor example they
did in this respect.

The resumption of the ghost stories
concerning the coke trade was exempli-fied
Wednesday by the publication of the
statements that the price ot coke would
not be advanced In May; that consider-able
contracts at Ihe present low rates
have been made for (lint month; that
shipments of C00 ears a day are made,
entailing a loss of $7,000 a day to the
shippers, and linally nil operator Is qtio-ted
as saving that the price will not he
advanced Ijeenuso “ihe parties who are
now pleading for a setlcment were the
llrst to cut the price.”
It is to be noticed that this presents
several very interesting allegations.
First, the alleged loss of $".,000 on 000
ears amounts to $8.00 per ear, or between
■10 and CO cents per ton. If It Is true that,
tho coke operators are deliberately
throwing away one-third of tho cost of
production just to Injure their neighbors,
I hey are eminently subjects for the ap
pointment of guardians. Aa they are
all sensible men, we may conclude the
allegation that, they are reducing them-selves
to bankruptcy to be largely the
work of imagination.
So, too, the statement that they will
i ot. allow the price to go up because they
want to punish their rivals indicates,
if it is trim, that something besides
business principles is at work. If
the present price is a losing
one, it ineanS Unit the people who
take tlds position would rather throw
away their own money than give their
rivals a chance to make any.
The fact of contracts lining made.ahead
at present prices affords a presumption
that tho present price of coke at least
covers the costs If it does not, only one
thing Is necessary to remedy the matter.
If those who do not wish to lose money
will simply withdraw from the market,
those who may have occult reasons for
deeping the price below cost will soon
tire of being the only loscrsand the price
will go up.—Pittsburg Diiputch,

RAILWAY BUILDING FOR 1889.
Whatever dullnes may liavc developed
in other branches of business activity
since the beginning of 1888,railway build
Ing lias not partaken of it. The Hallway
Age furnishes the statistics of railway
building during the ii rut three months of
the new year. This shows time 1,090
miles of new road have been laid on fifty-four
different lines tn twenty-eight States,
aa against 1,040 miles on forty-nine roads
in twenty-five States during tlie same
period in 1887. Nearly 13,000 miles of
new railroad were built during 1887 and
if the work of tho first three mouths of
the present year can be accepted ns an
indication the addition to the railway
mileage of the country in 18SS will be
oven greater Ilian the unprecedented ad-dition
of 1887. Taking tho most conser-vative
view of the matter possible there
is a good promise that the end of the year
will witness tho construction of at least
from 8,000 to 10,000 miles ofnew railway.
This means a reasonably busy season for
blast furnaces and rolling mills.

and urge on every citizen the sentiment
and tho duty of planting at least one
tree. We might say with emphasis toaii
who do this, future generations wi’.l bless

in your own day. A million trees ought
to be planted on the 27th ol the present,

TIIK NATIONAL COUNCIL Of WOMEN.
Francis E. Willard, l’residout.
Ton loathe question of equal rights
for women lias teen discussed most loud
ly by those who confounded dogma ami
usage with Christianity, and thought
Unit fail Ii in tho latter interfered with
woman's progress. The dear Christian
women who stood by their side,and who
led many from all ehiirelies to try to aid
Hu in, were often overlooked by llie mid
I Itude and an unchristian element, seemed
lo prevail. I.iiyal Christian women
felt that they could give neither aid nor
countenance to a movement, that did not
n cognize i ll isilnnity as tho poser un-derlying
all true reforms.
Tlie international Council has changed
all lliis. It begun with sermon anil
prayer. It opened every service with
prayer. Christian women were .the
real leaders, and witli slight exception
tin'll' faith was respected and honored.
Wnen otherwise—when tlie inti.noire ot
addresses might have Seemed doubtful—
there was one voice; there was, upon
which Miss Anthony could always de-pend,
and tlie people would always listen
one wlm, though she gathered honey,
from every flower, “always carried it
homo to tier Methodist hive.” Can you
wonder that we thanked God for her in-lluence?
It was lmt natural that site
should be chosen tlie nominal as she must
lie Hie real leader.
During Hie sessions of tlie Interna-tional
Council, she spoke many times,
nml as one inspired of God to lead tlie
women of tlie world forward to victory
over every wrong. The best speakers
upon social purity had held the audience
lor about two hours but Miss Willard
could have held them three hours longer.
She seemed to add tho benediction, for
hor words were full of love and hope lor
tlm future of womanhood. Even her
words of condemnation of low-necked
dresses and of round dai.ees were spoken
so kindly that they drew the hearts'of
her listeners to the right, and true, and
womanly, and awoke no feeling of re-sentment.
Eet every W.C. T. U. woman pray
that Miss Willard’s strength may not

THE TOBACCO HABIT IN SCHOOLS.
BY II. II. SKEItLY.
(Prill. Iowa State Normal School.)
After making a study of several hun
tired boys, imining through a period of
ten years, J giye only observed facts,and
neither assume tlie epuditions nor jump
at fore ordained conclusions.
1. Boys that begin Ihe habit at ap
early age are stunted physically, and
never arrlyc at normal bodily develop-ment.
■2. Accompanied witli the use of the
narcotic were certain disordered physical
functions, sudi as Indigestion, impaired
taste, detective eyesight, il.tli hearing,
nervous affections and diseases of the
li.-art. J have not found a single case of
early addicting to tip habit of tobacco-using
that did not suffer with on.e or
more of these direful abnormal condi-tions,
ii. Tobacco, used In any form, destroy-ed
tlie ability to apply one’s seif to study,
and prevented his comprehending or re -
memberlng his lessons. The mental fac-ulties
of a boy under tlie influence ot tlie
narcotic seem to he in a stupor, and since
Kjepraved nerve powerstuitifles and weak-ens
the will power, there js hut little use
for (lie teacher to seek to arouse tlie .Jor-uuint,
paralyzed energies, or to interest
and foster tlie fagged desire. I have not
met a pupil that is addicted to the habit
wlm will go through a single day's work
and have good lessons. 1 liaye never

NEAR WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, April 21.
Clone to the same hour every afternoon,
the President's carrlngc drawn hy a
handsome spun of browns, with huff
liveried eonnhtnan and foot man on the
box and the President and Mrs. Clave
land occupying the chief sent, may he
seen rumbling out of the massive gate of
the North Park of the Executive Man-sion.
It lias two routes of exit front tlie
city by the northern boundary, ell her by
Nineteenth street, over the densely
wooded hills ot historic Kalorania, or
through West Washington, and thence
by the Rockville turnpike In the direc-tion
of Tenallytown.
After a drive of twenty minutes
through a region pieluresqdely dlversi-lleil
with hill and dale, copse and meadow
and arriving nl the point where Woodley
Land road Intersects the Rockville “pike”
approaching front the east, within the
angle of the two roads on the northeast
surmounting a partly wooded knoll is
“Oak View,” the country home of the
President. A light Iron gale opens upon
a well kept drive which leads up to the
ports coehere on the west veranda. Here
the President and Mrs Cleveland alight
and on the veranda and lawn pass a
pleasant hour, enjoying the rich per-fumes
of blooming magnolias and the
bright varying colors of doutr.ias, spjrens,
eadoniHH and the numerous spring dow-ering
plants which beatitily the surround-ing
grounds.
The original mansion was built hy a
descendant of the manorial family in
177b. The old manor house, erected over
a century ago, long before the Peninsula
in the arms of the Potomac anil Anacostia
was thought of for the seat of government
of a great Republic, stands about two
hundred yards In the rear of “Oak
View.” Both were built of a local stone,
with heavy walls,calculated to long with-stand
the wear and tear ot the variable
climate of this latitude.
One of the earliest diversions of the
President after Ills accession to the ex
ecufive office was driving in company
with Private Secretary l.amont among
the romantic hills north of the capital
lie greatly admired the many command-ing
eminences lit that picturesque locality.
When his m ti llage was contemplated lie
determined to have a residence of Ills
own where he might throw oft’ otllelal
cares and enjoy the rest and quiet of a
private citizen. This purpose culminated
in tlie purchase of twenty-one acres ol
the ancient Maryland estate of the Greens
for as many thousand dollars. As soon
ns the titles wore perfected and papers
drawn William Poindexter, an architect
of t.aste and skill, was engaged to remod-el
the unpretentious stone structure. Ry
raising it an additional story, hy adding
an ornamental chimney, by surmounting
the building with a long, sweeping, high-pitched
roof, pierced with artistic dormer
windows, by surrounding It with spa-ciqqs
verandas and a porte cochere and
enlarging it with an extension for the
kitchen and domestic otllces at an outlay
of nearly jilt),000, the mansion was de
veloped Into Its present aspect of archi-tectural
comeliness and effect. It may
he said as an InvcstinfOit that the estate
is worth double to-day what it cost two
years ago.
The home llle of “Oak View” was
fairly inaugurated in the summer and
autumn of 1883. Mrs. Folsom, the moth
cr of Mrs. Cleveland, was installed ns
presiding lady and the domestic economy
of the household was arranged under her
experienced direction. The President
and Mrs. Cleveland at first drove out
daily and passed Satuidays and Sundays
there. Last season, during the heated
term, when not absent from the capital
they took up tlielr residence at “the
ffpmt,” and thus strengthened their at-tachment
for the peaceful surroundings
and home-1Ike comfort of the place.
The mansion contains fourteen rooms
In the body of the building the apart-ments
open on a main central hall. On
the first floor on the right are a large
parlor and library and on the left the
President's study and a line dining room
In the wing are the pantries, china elos
ets and kitchen. On the second floor are
five chambers and spacious linen closets
The President’s chamber Is in the south
east angle of the mansion and opens upon
the octagonal projection of the veranda
>(rs. plevelamFs dressing room Is in the
rear. Jti the attic are four fine chamber^
The mansion is furnlshe I in excellent
taste. Mrs. Cleveland, in drawing the
line between iter official and domestic
life, said In a rocent conversation that
when she was lit the Executive Mansion
she felt as If she belonged to the people
but when at “Oak View” she realized
that she was her own mistress.
Since Mrs. Folsom left “Oak View” to
pass the winter in Michigan with her sis
ter In mourning lor her mother, “Oak
View” has been garrisoned by the Irish
gardener and his family, who occupy one
of the adjuncts to the mansion and kce
a watchful guard over the dwelling and
jts surroundings. Since the veins
warmth of the expanding year set in Mrs,
Cleveland has di iven to “the farm” al
most every day to superintend the plant
log of spring bulbs and flowers, and otli
orwlse placing the impress of her os-taste
and foundnese tor the heatttifiiil in
nature upon the Immediate surroundings
of her home, and to make it worthy of
the domestic environments of the rover
elgn of over sixty millions of sover
eigns. Alxflit the first ol May the Pres
ident and Mrs. Cleveland expect to take
up their residence at "Oak View.” The
President will then drive in as he did
hist season in the morning and pass his
official hours at the Executive Mansion
returning in the evening. Mrs. Cleve-land
will only come In ss occasion
may require.
iu June Mrs Folsom will return from
her Jhtrcpeaii vl-it and will resume he
tilape as a member of the President
household. 41 present the President has
tpade no plans for the spring or summer
nvyay from the Executive-Mansion Hnd
“Oak View.” The season for fishing
and summer jaunts hag not yet arrived.
It Is his present intention, however, to
pass most If not all of the summer at hla
oountrv seat.
The President has never Intimated what
his own views are as to the work of the
oproaehtng nominating conven-ds,
but whether a candidate

THET THOUGHT HERDEFORM8D.
Whits Hurge Hutch Itinera Pitf M (Hit
With it IlimtJe.
Every mlncrn i the camp was excited
and talking about it. Now, it took some
very important event to thoroughly
arouse sll the boys along the gulch. A
row HI which only one man was killed
was considered a very commonplace so-cial
event, and an ordinary lynching did
not attract much attention.
What was It ?
Why there was a woman In camp, and
all was commotion. It was the first
great social event in White Horse Gulch.
The young lady had finished her din-ner
and was strolling about the camp
Ith her uncle, a large, fleshy, jolly old
man. who was a large stockholder in one
of the principal mines in the gulch. He
had brought hla niece, a young lady of
20, on a trip with him for company and
also to show her something of the wild
and rugged West. It had been a month
nee the hoys had seen a woman, and
hence everybody wanted to meet her and
invite her to partake ol the hospitalities
of White Horse Gulch, for all the latch
strings were out nnd she would have been
elcomed to the be t the rude mountain
abins afforded.
Now, any woman would have appeared
handsome. A dried-up old maid from
New England, dieted and preserved on
non-sugared tea lor a quarter of a cett
tury,‘would have been considered hand-some
and very lovely, for the mountain
hoys are very gallant to women, nnd old
maids are given a fair show every time.
The boys were all charmed by the po-lite
manners and handsome face of the
young lady, but there was a look ot deep
sympathy iu the eyes of all who saw her.
It Is too bad,” was the prevailing senti-ment
of all,
What a handsome face, pnrd,” ex-lalmcd
a miner,“but how unfortunate.”
Home admired her handsome face, oth-ers
her beautiful black hair, and others
her comely shaped foot, but all pitied
her for her deformity.
That evening, after the young Intiy
had retired, the uncle was chatting with
number of the miners, and his niece, of
whom the fond undo was very proud,
became the topic ol conversation. Fi-nally,
one hardier that the rest, said it
was a pity that she was deformed. In
tones of sympathy he told the uncle how
the hearts of all the miners in White
Horse Gulch hail gone out toward him
for her affliction.
“ Afflicted P’ahouted the enraged uncle.
Afflicted! Why she Is only wearing
one of those hlankety blank hustles.
And everybody replied in a chorus:
Hustle! Rustle! What’s a hustle?”—

A VYOIIIHU'H Dlucovery.
Another wonderful discovery has
been made nnd that too by a liuly In this
county. Disease fastened its clutches
upon her and for seven years she with*
stood its severest tests, but her vital or-gans
were undermined and dentil seemed
imminent. For throe months she cough-ed
incessantly and could not sleep. She
bought of us a bottlo of Dr. King’s New
Discovery for Consumption and was so
much relioved on taking first pilose that
shgslept all night and with one bottle
has been miraculosly cured. Her name
is Mrs. Luther Lutz.” Thus write \V.

from all parts of ttio country.—Mr.
Mills Introduced bis tariff biil in the
House yesterday, and his speech is con-sidered
n rather tame affair, llcadvnnc-cd

abolished, and expressed himself assured
that Ids bill would not injure labor.
Judge Kelley, “the father of the House,1’
replied and made a strong argument in
favor of continued protection.—By the
burning of D Arnheim & Co.’s Pittsburg
stables, 22 young mules were burned to
death. The insurance on building and
animals will leave the loss very small on
the tlrm.—The station of the Cincinnati,
Wabash and Michigan road at Wabash,
Ind., was blown skyward by a dynamite
cartridge. The citizens had given the
company a handsome site for a comino-diousstation
hut the officials seemed dil-atory
and this is believed to have been
a scheme of the donors to hurry tho new
building up.
TitrnsDAY.—Emperor Frederick is
worse. The swelling in his throat lias
gone downward, making it very hard
for him to breath. The doctors, inclu
ding McKenzie, say tie may die at almosi
any time. The Ohio State Convention
met yesterday at Dayton and, from pres-ent
appearances it would seem that Shcr
man must hustle if ho would have the
hacking of ids own stale for the presi-dency.
Blaine and Foraker havo quite
a few delegates.—Friends of Andrews at
Harrisburg are willing to bet that their
man will down Cooper for the Republi-can
state chairmanship.- President Can-non

story comes irom Calhoun county, W.
Yu., telling of four robbers who entered

will investigate the Burlington strike.—
Capt. W. II. Barclay, tho Pittsburg pen
slon agent, has drawn $75,000 on a ticket
he held in the Louisiana Lottery. The
amount was just half the capital prize in
the drawing made April 10.—The Day-ton
convention mildly endorsed Sherman
although that gentleman got a majority
of tho delegates by a scratch.—Tho evi
deuce taken boforo the Railway Commis-
Hioners regarding the recent wreck, at
Creslon, Iowa, on the Burlington road,
in which two trainmen were killed and
three badly injured, shows that the con
ductor of tho wrecked freight train had
had no sleep for 50 hours, and that he
objected to going out without rest.
SATURDAY.—In spite of the unfavora-ble
reports regarding Blaine’s health,
thore is a well-defined movement
. throughout this country that lie will ho
the Republican nominee for president.—
The friends and enemies of Genera'.
Boulaugor met inthe streets of Paris and
broken heads were the result.—Emperor
Frederick is some better, hut his physi-cians
hold out no hope of his recovery.—
