No Limit to the Craving for Wealth.
Apropos of the responsibilities aud
worry which accompany large wealth,
Peter C. Brooks, then the richest man
in Boston, said all be ever got for his
riches was board and clothing. No
rich man has eyer yet offered to accept
tboaeln lieu of posseesionsandthey never
will. It is the acquisition of wealth,
we >re told, that is enjoyable, and
those who dilate upon this subject are
just as anxious to add another hundred
thousand dollars to their possessions
as the laboriug man is to see that his
saving bank book contains a fresh en
try.
A Fighting Mob of Idle Miners.
SCRANTON, Pa., June 9,—A crowd
of four hundred men and boys stoned
the miners of the Grassy Island coa)
company's colliery in Peckville this
morning and tried to prevent them from
going to work. The miners, who are
armed with revolvers, fired on the
belligerents and wounded two of them.
One part of the mine is idle and among
the men employed in the other part
are a number of newcomers. The old
miners who are idle claim that the?
should be given the perference and the
oompany refuses to do so, the new
comers having aided in operating the
colliery when the old miners eugaged
in a strike about six moDths ago. Sher

Nantlcoke Inundated— People Rescu
ed From Housetops.
WILLKBSBARRE, Pa., June 9.—The
Wyoming valley was yisited by a ter
rific rain storm this afternoon. At
Nanticoke there was a cloud burst
which did great damage to property
and created eonsternatiou among the
inhabitants. Water fell in great vol
umes, ID a fewmioutes the streets were
entirely submerged. Iu many places
the water was from two to four feet
deep. The sewer of the main street
was entirely inadequate to carry off the
water and it swept along towards the
Susquehanna river. In its course it
dislodged several residences. Evan
Morris' bouse tumbled down, the stove
was upeet and the building set on fire.
The fire department was called out and
the flames were subdued. Morris,
who is totally blind, was rescued from
the burning buildiug with great diffi
culty. Water also entered the mam
moth boiler bouse of the Susquehanna
coal company, putting out the fires in
the nest of twenty boilers, and stop
ped all work in and atyoat the vtrious
mines. Thirty tenement houses near
by were entirely surrounded by water
befooe the inmates could make their
escape, and they were forced to go to
the top ot tbeir houses for Bafety. Af
ter the rain ceased they were rescued
by parties in boats. Tbe road bed of
the Pennsylvania railroad was washed
out for nearly 200 feet, stopping all
trains for sometime. The damage done
to household goods, merchandise aid
other property is not yet known, but it
must be very heavy.
Drowned In Sherman's Creek.
FALLING STRINGS, Pa., June 9.— On
Tuesday Edward Grube and John
Foltz left their homes to fish in Sher
man's creek. Their ages were about
19 and 10 years old, respectively, and
their fathers are John Grube, the
butcher aud Henry Foltz, of Center
tovrnship. Going to Christian Stouf
fer'a dam they got into a boat. Tbe
creek was bank full, the boys were un
able to control tbe boat and were
swept over tbe dam and drowned.
Grube jumped tbe reaction of tbe wat
er below the dam and was drowned in
the swift current. Little Folzt was
last seen sitting on the bottom of tbe
boat, which had capsized, calling to
Mrs Stouffer for help, she having wit
nessed tbe occurence. She and Mrs.
Lupfer were the only persons near and
tbe boy pleaded with them to drive a
horse into tbe raging torrent aud carry
him ashore. Mrs. Stooffer was power
less to render him .'assistance and was
heart stricken to see him go down to
death full of life, while Mrs, Lupfer,
equally distracted,r an for aid, but in
tbe meantime the boat was carried back
to the dam, engulfed in tbe current
again tamed with tbe bottom dowD,
aud the boy disappeared forever alive.
Many people gathered at the scene, but
nothing could be done but gaze over
the muddy water and deploretbe sadifate
that had befallen tbe two youDg men.
Tbeir dog, which plunged into the mad
aeream to rescue the hopeful boy Foltz
was] also drowned, Up to this time
the bodies of the boys have not been
recovered althoughevery effort has been
made to do so.
SOUND !)()(THINK.
An Influential Religious Paper'* Re
marks In Support of tlic Demo
cratic Land Policy.
Tha platforms of both parties, in the
last Presidential election, declared in
nearly identical language that the pub
lic lands ought to bo kept us home
stoads for actual settlers ; and demand
ed that unearned lands granted to rail
road cooperations should be restored to
the public domain. These resolutions
were inconsistent with the policy that
has prevailed for many years in the
Land Oillce of the Department of the
Interior. By "rulings" that are with
out warrant of law, and sometimes in
defiance of statute, immense tracts of
land have been withdrawn from settle
ment. In 1564 a tract forty miles wide
on each side of the road in the Territor
ies and twenty miles in the States was
voted to the Northern Pacitlc railway,
on condition of its completing the road
by July 4, 1576. The time was after
wards extended to July 4. 1879, at
which time only 630 miles out of a total
of 2,302 had been completed. At the
present time 226 miles remain to be
built. To much of the land this com
pany now holds it lias no legal title, be
cause its uon-fultlllmeut of contract.
And yet it has been suffered by the
Land Otticd to take possession, and
4,000,000 acres of land are withdrawn
from settlement in the Columbia River
valley, in order that the company may
have them when it completes its track.
It so happened that in ls7S one GuiU
ford Miller settled in goad faith on a
tract of land in Washington Territory,
which happened to be within the limits
where the railway was entitled to select
lauds. He tiled his claim under the
homestead law December 29, lss4. lie
has farmed his land and made certain
improvements on it, which have mater
ially increased its value. The railway
company, seven years after he had
settled, endeavored to oust Miller. He
appealed to the Government, and his
appeal ultimately found its way to the
President. Mr. Cleveland inquired
carefully into the modern version of
Naboth's vineyard, an l decided that
the railroad was attempting, under col
or of law, to take from a worthy citizen
his hard-earued property. He returns
the documents to the Secretary of the
Interior, with a letter in which he says:
"I suggi'st that you exercise the power
and authority you have in the premises
upon equitable considerations, with ev
ery presumption and intendment in fa
vor of the settler, and in case you find
the corporation is entitled to select any
more of these lands than it has already
acquired, that you direct it to select in
lieu of the land upon which Mr. Miller
has settled, other lands within the lim
its of this idemnity reservation, upon
which neither he nor any other citizen
has in good faith settled or made im
provements."
Not only does Mr. Cleveland thus de
cide this case, by a "suggestion" that
is equivalent to a command,but he cou
demns in the strongest terms the form
er policy of the Interior Department.
It is perfectly plain, though the fact is
not announced in so many words, that
the policy of the Government Is to be
r&dically changed. The public lands
are not to be henceforth the spoil of
great corporations, but the heritage of
the people. This has been the will of
the people from the first, but that will
has been thwarted by unwise legislation
and flagrantly unjust official action.
Let the people's land be for the people,
says the President. That is sound doc
trine, whoever says it, and the people
have been looking for years for some
man In authority who would practice
what he preached.— X. Y. Examiner.
How the Deaf Mutes Heard a Servlee
In a Brooklyn Church.
An elderly man with a gray beard
and a slender complement of gray hair
stood at the reading desk behind the
chancel rail in St.Ann's Chapel (Epico
pal, on a recent Sunday afternoon in
the full vestures of an Episcopal clergy
man and went through what to an or
dinary person looked like an extraor
dinary series of unintelligible maneuv
ers. His fingers revolved abont each
other in rapidity, he patted his hands
together, stroked his breast, touched
bis forehead and pointed to bis con
gregation, who comprised a score of
men and women. Sometimes he used
only one hand in these motiohs, mak
ing the fingers work very rapidly ; at
other times both bands were used. The
emphasis and the punctation used in
these gestures was apparent even to
one who had never seen them employed
before.
The people who watched the minister
were deaf mutes of Brooklyn attending
one of their regular services, which are
held in St. AnD'sChapei twice a month.
Tbe minister was reading the Episco
pal liturgy as it appears in tbe present
system of deaf mute gestures, and tbe
congregation were hearing it by means
of their eyes. The liturgy was not cut
at all, all tbe prayers were given and all
the psalms and Scripture readings. At
tbe proper time the congregation knelt
and watched the prayer that was be
ing said, and at the conclusion said a
hearty "Amen" with their hands.
They sang the hymns, too, and joined
in the responses with the greatest in
terest, apparently their gesticulations
being quite as pronounced and their
faces as earnest as that of the minister.
After the prayers and hvinos and
Scripture readings the minister preach
ed a gesture sermon half an hour long
from the tenth chapter of St. John :
"lam the good shepherd; the good shep
herd giveth his life for bis sheep."
The congregation sat without a motion
till it was all over and the service was
ended. Then they shook bands and
greeted each other and the minister
very warmly. Their Angers Aew like
lightning as they asked and answered
questions about their acquaintances
and themselves.
The minister was the Rev. Thomas
Gallaudet of the famous Gallaudet
family, known all over the continent
on account of their work during the
last two generations for deaf mutes.

Why Sull'erors on the Street* of llu
vann Receive no Assistance.
The shrill whistle of a policeman at
tracted the attention of the people who
wero dining in the principle hotel of
Havana the other night, and half of
them followed the clerks and porteis
out on the sidewalk. Directly in front
of the hotel is a little park and near
one of the small fountains was a man
writhing about and digging his lingers
into the ground in his agony. He
moaned constantly. lie was dying. At
a distance of perhaps twenty feet from
him were four policemen, with their
arms folded, smoking cigarettes and
keeping an alert eye on al> pedestrians.
If a mau. approve lied the poor'wretch
who was dying there, ho was steruly
warned off. The Americans who had
been dining in the hotel started toward
the man in the park in a body, but they
were pushed and led kick by the hotel
employes amid considerable excitement.
"You musn't go there," said cue ot
the interrupters, earnestly.
"Why not V" asked a burly and good
natured Newark physician, moving for
ward again. "The man's got cramps—
probably from hunger—and a little aid
now would save his life. I don't pro
pose to stand here and see him die."
"No, no; don't go over there. Listen
to me. I know it will be very serious
for you if you "
lint the Jerseyraan pushed ahead,
followed by his countrymen, while the
interrupter rushed into the hotel after
an American merchant who had lived
here for thirty years and who lias a
wide knowledge of Cuban affairs. This
gentleman ran out without his hat and
culled to his countrymen in such an au*
thoriatiye way that they returned to
the hotel again slowly.
"Stay here," lie said, shortly, "and
keep away from all such scenes as that
while you are in Cuba. The Spanish
laws of three hundred years ago are
still in force, which call for the arrest
of witnesses to any crime or tragedy—"
"But the man is dying," protested
the Jersey man.
"I CUD see that plainly enough. He
is either dying of sickuiss or he has
been stabbed in the back by some ene
my. The coroner has been sent for
and he will probably be hero in two
hours. Meanwhile if it is a murder
the police will have to make some ar
rests to satisfy their superiors. God
help the men they take into custody.
Prisoners here are kept in jail mouths
and months—and foul jails at that—
without any preliminary examination
or commitment by a magistrate, and
then they are tried without being al
lowed to be present at their trials.
Witnesses are not cross-examined and
sentence is executed before there is a
chance for a stay of proceedings. Look
abo-t here. You can see thousands of
people watching that poor devil's death
agonies from safe distances. See them
staring from house-tops and from be
hind pillars and half-closed windows.
They are not cowards, but there is not
one among them that would dare to
risk the consequences of going to the
aid of that unfortunate man."
One or two other Cuban residents
joined the group, and we Qnallv went
back to the dining-room. The groan
ing and moaning of the man was awful.
It all occurred in the heart of the city
of Havana, and in a situation not un
like that of the Fifth Avenue Hotel, on
Madison Square, New York. I jump
ed into a hack and drove away froin the
ncighlorh.xxl when I could staad the
thing no longer, and I afterwards
learned that utter two hours the mau
died and was sulwcquently removed.
He had been stabbed in the side. No
effort was made to get assistance for
him'.by the brutal police beyond send
ing for the coroner. Two men were
arrested, and they are now in j.til. Ev
erywhere there is crime. The Spanish
run the city by military force, and they
make a profound failure of it. It is,
undoubtedly, the worst governed city
in the world .—Havana Cor. Phila

A Scientist Pronounces Tliem the
Cause of the Common Form
of Ila lil ileus •
The habit of wearing warm coverings
ou the head is not of recent date ; the
armies of Europe, for instance, no in
considerable number of men, with
heads close cropped, have worn for a
long period warmer aud heavier head
gear than the modern dwellers in cities,
without the same tendency to ba'dness.
Nor are the heavy fur coverings of
northern races Incompatible with luxu
riant hair. It is also difficult to under
stand what injury can result from close
cutting jwr sc. The growth is in the
hair-folliclp, and in it alone there is no
vital connection between the hair out
side the scalp and within it is usually
cut close.4 at the back of the bead and
neck, where baldness never occurs.
Would not close cutting rather stimu
late the growth by ex|x>sure of the
scalp V So, too, with indoor life; wo
men, who ought to show it most,
whether In the home or in the factory,
are never bald as men are ; on the con
trary, it is most common with men in
good circumstances, as Mr. Eaton's
statistics show, nun who spend a larg
er proportion of their day-time in the
open air than the in-door worker.
I believe tho common form of bald
ness is due entirely to the kind of hat
that is worn, principally to the high
hat and the hard felt hut, but also to
any other hard covering that constricts
the blood-vessels which nourish the hair
bulbs. To have a clearer understand
ing of this, we must remember that the
scalp is supplied with blood by arteries
at the back, sides and front of, and ly
ing close to, the skull, which diminish
in size by frequent branching as they
coverage toward the top of the head.
They are in a most favorable position
to be compressed, lying on unyielding
bone and covered by thin tissue. Con
sider what effect must be produced by
a close-fitting, heavy and rigid hat; its
pressure must lesson to a Certain extent
the How of arterial blood, and obstruct
to a greater extent the return of the
venos; the result being a sluggish circu
lation in the capilliaries around the
hair follicles and bulcs, a consequent
impairment of nutrition, and final
atrophy. This pressure is not trivial
or imaginary, as anyone will admit who
has noticed the red band of congestion
on the forehead when a hard hat is re
moved after moderate exercise.— H r . C.

Bored by Ants.
The most dreaded insect invader is
the white ant. In Atrica, their houses
aro dome-shaped mounds often eighteen
feet high. These Insects erect pyra
mids one thousand times higher than
themselves ! The ants 011 their travels
so conceal their approach that their
presence is not suspected until the dam
age is done. They usually tunnel into
any object which tney attack, often re
ducing it to a mere shell. It: this way
they have been known to ascend within
the leg of a table, devour the contents
of a box upon it, and descend through
a tunnel tiored in another leg, all in one
night An ollicer of the English army
while calling upon some ladies in Cey
lon was startled by a rumbling sound.
The ladies started with affright, and
the next instant they stood with only
the sky above them ; the roof had fallen
in and lay all about, leaving them mir
aculously unharmed ! The ants had
made their way up through the beams,
hollowing them out until a great part
of the framework of the house was
ready to fall at tho slightest shock.

A joke on manager llurnhnm, which
cost llriody SMK>, leaked out this week.
When Ihe League met in New York
last March Manager lluruhuiu told
President Newberger that he had
llnody's written agreement to play in
Indianapolis lite season of IKB7 for sl,-
400, liut that owing to the catcher's cor
pulency lie didn't believe he wanted
him. So at New York Newberger said
to Stearns .* "I understand you are go
ing to sign llriody for $2,000 on the
strength of last yeai's record. Now, I
think I can save you some money."
'•IIow so Y" asked Stearns.
"Whv, we have signed llriody for
$1,400, and don't want him."
Wheifiipou Stearns telegraphed to
Welkins : "Sign llriody for $1,400 and
no uiore." llriody fumed aud fretted
a while, but finally signed for $1,400.
When the Detroit club reached here
this week llriody asked Newberger if
he had said he had signed with Imlian
&|h)II for $1 400. Newberger respond
ed in the affirmative, and referred him
to Iluruham for particulars. When
they got together the whole story came
out. A fat rascal,afterwarddlscoveied
to be one Fisher, had imposed himself
ou Iluruham, who didn't know llriody,
during the winter as the Kansas City
catcher. lie was in need of ready cush,
and upon Iluruham advancing hitn a
small loan, readily signed Ilriod>'s
name to a contract at ilurnham's own
