Danville appears to have suffered sad aflliction this year in being not only the rcso:t of considerable small pox, meailes, and Bulgarian scratches, but the fact has come out that she is the former domicile, if not the birth place, of the now notorious Coxey himself. This latter disclosure was recently made to the writer by a reliable gentle man directly from Danville who had neither the Danville small-pox nor the Bulgarian scratchers. He claimed to know all about Coxey from away back, when this illustrious nomad lived there. From what we gathered from this personal acquaintance we are safe in saying that the more desirable atmos phere of peace seldom blows through Coxey's whiskers, and that he is gener ally in a peck of trouble. If it were not for giving him away entirely we should say his Danville ac quaintance pronounced him consider ably more than eccentric. But having now attained a national reputation, like the rest of our more noted statesmen and warriors, his character though public property is more likely to be defamed than lauded. This being the outgrowth of envy on the part of those who have no nat ional popularity themselves, we cannot condescend to take any part in belittle ing our more brilliant public men just out of pure envy, nor shall we com mence at the general of one wing of the army-of-the unemployed-anti-tariff-reformers, but we simply remark that if Coxey still resided in Danville he would probably be confined in the state institution just this side of that borough.

Represent ative Hines, Democrat, of Pennsyl vania, has evolved a plan that he be lieves w ill speedily dispose of Coxey"s army after their arrival in Washington. He proposes introducing a bill ap propiiatmg $ro,ooo, to be expended in improving some of the country roads in the District of Columbia. " I will venture the prediction," saitl the Congressman to day, ' that less than $500 of the appropriation will be expended. The army will get out of town so fast that all the rest of the money will be covered back into the Treasury. In fact, if such resolution had been passed a week ago it would have resulted leefore this in the dis bandment not only of Coxey's forces, but all the collateral branches as well." T. F. Anthony, Kx-rostmabler of Tromise City, Iowa, says : I bought one bottle of 'Mystic Cure," for Rheu matism and two Jotes of it did me more good than any imdicinc I ever took." Sold by C. A.

M.Ikeler. and W. H. Utt. Mr. Ikeler moved the adoption of the following resolution : Whereas, The plans of the sub structure of the county bridge at Bloomsburg, the most expensive and important public improvement in the history of the County, made and filed in the Commissioner's ofiice by the Lite Commissioners with the contract for the said substructure, consisted of three blue prints, entitled, "Abutment River Bridge, Bloomsburg, Pa., South Side.' "Abutment River Bridge, Bloomsburg, Pa., North Side," and "River Pier No. 1," and were simply crude outline sketches with only a few dimensions noted on them, and did not show the character of the pier and the foundations of the same, to be erected under the contract : and Whereas, Mr. James C. Brown, the supervising Engineer of the said, bridge for the County, upon his atten tion being called by the present Com missioners to the insufficiency of the aforesaid plans, made and filed in the said office additional plans of the ma sonry, dated respectfully, January 10, 13, 17, 25, and 26, 1894, and which were incomplete, and did not show the location of the bridge, the position of the tops of the piers, and the char acter of the foundation of the same, etc. : and Wiieras, The present Commission ers, to comply with the law in relation to the erection of county bridges, and to secure on file in their office correct and detailed plans of the piers and foundations of the same, to be erected under said contract and avoid all risk of founding the piers of said bridge upon insecure foundations, adopted the resolution of April 10th, 1S94: and Whereas, The said Engineer, in pursuance of said resolution, has sub mitted to the present Commissioners plans and elevations of said piers and coffer dam, etc., dated April 12th, 1S94, except plan of coffer dam which is without date, together with an esti mate cost of same, amounting to $5857.96. Thereforebe.it Resolved : That the said piers and foundations of the same shall be erec ted according to plans of same, and plan of coffer dam, last above referred to, dated April 12 th, 1894, under and subject to all the provisions and stip ulations contained in the contract, be tween Joseph Hendler and the Coun ty and the specifications accompany ing said contract.
