Mr. Shuman thought they were human bones, but they were too large for that, unless they belong to an antediluvian giant race. It is more than likely that they are the bones of a horse or cow. Dr. D. T. Krebs, a prominent phy sician of Mt. Carmel, and ex-Coroner of Northumberland county, was found dead at the gate leading to his home on the 24th ult.

The new building for the employees at the Normal is not yet fully com pleted, but has been occupied for the past two weeks. John Wanamaker is talked of as a candidate for the United States Sen- ate, against Don Cameron whose term expires in 1S97. The Saturday lleoiew of William sport suspended publication last week. It was a bright and interesting sheet, edited by W. H. Showers, a young journalist of much ability. The concert given by the Blooms burg Band in front of the Court House on Tuesday night was listened to by a large concourse of people, with much pleasure. The improve ment made by the Band, under Mr. Blair's leadership, is noticeable from week to week. State Sanitation. The State Board of Health has suc ceeded to an encouraging degree in arousing public sentiment to the necessity of organized sanitary super vision. All cities and the majority of the boroughs of the State have Boards cf Health tributary to the Stale Board, and a bill is pending in the Legisla ture conferring the powers and duties of a board of health upon the School Board of each township. This, if passed, will furnish t.n organization that can take the necessary measures to suppress a nuisance prejudicial to the public health or a dangerous epidemic in any section of the State, no matter how remote. The State Board finds, however, that the old problem of making bricks without straw is as difficult of solution as ever, and while it has, or is in a fair way to have, all the legal power it needs, finds itself sadly hampered for funds to enforce proper health regulations. It is appealing, there fore, to the friends ot proper sanita tion in all parts of the State to urge an important increase in the appro priation for carrying on the regular work under the board's supervision. This appeal is worthy of cordial and unanimous support. In no place can the ounce of prevention be so effec tively supplied as through the agency of the State Board of Health. The Legislature should need no urging to its duty in this respect, but in the multitude of claims upon the State funds there is more or less danger that the just requirements of the board may be slighted, unless a popu lar demand compels proper attention. Ex. Printing in Colors, The prices of colored printing inks have gone down with everything else, and it costs no more to do printing in colors than it Joes in black. The Columbian office is prepared to print in any of the following colors : Black, orange, deep cherry, brown lake, light blue, ultra marine blue, bronze red, violet, dark red, green, jacqueminot, purple, garnet, peacock blue.

The Pennsylvania House of Repre sentatives voted by a large majority to allow street railway cars to carry freight. This is the one thing yet lacking to develop trolley and horse cars to their full usefulness. There is no reason why freight should not be loaded into street cars and carried at the same speed that passengers are. It is a convenience badly needed in every city in this Union. Especially the electric lines in suburban and country places would supply a great want if they sent out freight cars at regular intervals, lhese could b small, light and swift enough not to interfere in any way with passenger traflic. At present the arrangements for getting baggage and small freights from one part to another of any of our large cities are a grievance and a nuisance intolerable. It actually takes longer to get a trunk from one part of Chicago or New York or Philadelphia to another than it would to send it to a city ioo miles away. The street freight and baggage car is the thing. Washington Ilepublic. In Memory of the Departed. Mrs. Catharine I")r11m.in. of F.ver's Grove, died Anril a a. 180?. aeed 62 I ' s ' a years, 17 days. She leaves five child ren to mourn her loss, three sons and two daughters, who deeply feel the 1 - t . i loss 01 a goou and patient moiner. Again our hearts are bowed with grief, Our tears in sorrow flow, A loving mother now is called To leave this world of woe. She has cone to meet the loved ones That have passed the waters o'er, But we hope to meet her later On the blessed heavenly shore. The home is sad and lonely now, For there's her vacant chair ; For we who loved our mother dear, Would always find her there. Many a day of bitter sorrow, Toil ami pain she has passed, But we know that she is happy In the Savior's arms at last. From all her trials she is gone, And our home is sad and drear, But we'll place our trust in Jesus, He I know our hearts will cheer. Her children now are weeping For their mother they loved so well, But they know that she's in Heaven, Where she can love them still. And her dear and aged father, How with tears his eyes would swell, As he gazed upon her face. To take a long and sad farewell. And her brothers and her sisters, How they'll miss her here below; She U waiting for their coming In the bright forevermore. Many friends have gone to answer The blessed call they've heard at last, And with millions they are shouting, Home at last, home at last. GERTRUDE HlLEMAV. Tha Poor Man's Dollar. The Atlanta Journal says : " No class of our people have a more direct interest in the currency question than the wage earners. Ihey constitute the largest class of our entire popula tion. Of the 22,000,000 people in this country engaged in work in all callings, trades and professions, about 7,000,000 are wage earners in manu facturing, mining, transportation, building and other industries, not in cluding agriculture. To these 7,000, 000 must be added the millions of clerks and other employes who are dependent on the earnings of their labor. "Should silver monometallism pre vail, all these people will be paid in depreciated carrency, and until they receive $2 for every dollar they get now, they will lose by the change. The decline of prices has made their wages and salaries more potent in providing the necessaries and comforts of life. With every dollar they re ceive they can buy more now than they ever could before. They must know that there would be no com mensurate increase of wages with the establishment of the single silver standard. It must not be forgotten that in a rise of prices labor is about the last thing to go up. With the same wages they get now 7,000,000 people in this country would have a good time paying twice as much as they now pay for everything they buy. This is what silver monometallism would drive them to. The poor man's dollar should be an honest dollar." A Groat Offer.

The report that the Allianca affair has been settled by Spain's conceding the American claims is confirmed of ficially. The Spanish Government will give honorable satisfaction for the mistake, and admits that the Allianca was outside her territorial waters when the Conde de Venadito fired upon her, Commanders of war ships in Cuban waters have been instructed precisely not to fire on vessels outside the three- mile limit. Captain General Martinez de Cam pos has telegraphed from Cuba for more army surgeons. He will start in a few days for the Eastern provinces, where, it is said, he will make haste to deal the insurgents a decisive blow before the rainy season. It is said of Horace Greeley that he once said : " I have made nlentv of mistakes in my life, but they were always new mistakes." Everybody blunders ; it is the wise person who j . 1 . . i- uoes not uiunoer in me same way twice. JXtiQ xorfc limes. Saturday night two men drove to Pine Tlains, N. Y., and proceeding to the farm of rrank hno, near that village, dug up something which had been buried near a large boulder, and then hastily disappeared. The fact that the Italian known as " Red Nos ed Mike," who murdered and robbed the paymaster of a large manufactur ing company in Pennsylvania, several years ago, was arrested at Pine Plains while employed as a railroad laborer, and that the plunder he obtained from his victim has never been accounted for, leads to the belief that the object carried away by the men is " Red Nosed Mike's" long hidden treasure. There is a mystery about the affair which cannot be explained. While there is no truth in any disa greement whatever having occurred between President Cleveland and Secretary Gresham, the story has start ed a fresh rumor that the Secretary is going to resign which is more definite than any of its predecessors, tor it couples with the talk of his resignation the statement that when he was in New York early this week h was of fered the presidency of the Pullman Car Company by General Horace Porter and T. W. Doane, who are said to have spoken for themselves and other directors in view ot the probability that George M. Pullman will not be re elected president of the company at the annual meeting in Hy, . If such an offer should De made, carrying, as it would, $25,000 salary, it might be a temptation to Secretary Gresham : but his sense of duty is so keen that he would not yield to it as long as he felt that his work in the State Department was not completed, and that is the way he is known to feel now. He refuses to talk about the matter at all. With only about $100,000 available for distribution among all the institu tions asking State aid and not directly under State control, the question of issuing a loan for $2,000,000 is being seriously considered by some of the leaders in the House. I he principal obstacle to such a course, however, is the opposition of Governor Hast ings, who does not want to Degin nis Administration by borrowing money. State Chairman Gilkeson is also said to be opposed to the plan as being bad politics. Unless some scheme of this kind is adopted, however, there appears to be no prospects of any appropriations whatever, outside of the purely State institutions, as with only $200,000 available it will hardly . . . 1 i- . -i : De worm wnue to oegin uisinuuung. The State's revenues, it seems, are Deither as high as a church steeple nor as deep as a well, but, thanks to careful Republican management, they will reach around just the same. Ex. Yes, they will reach around to pay the increased salaries of existing office holders, and the salaries of numerous newly created and useless officers, thanks to a Republican legislature, but the schools and charities of the state are to be cut down in order to leave enough money to pay for repub lican extravagance.
