'Odp WeissporHcrilie" Speaks. I When the result of the great western s'.rlkc Is considered, the fact becomes apparent why Grand Workman Powdcr ly so strongly objects to strikes and boy- colts. There has never been nn Instance In tho history of our country where tho worklngmen havo succeeded in gaining any advantage whatever by striking. For a short tlmo they mav ho able to assert their rights, may he able to hold out against corporations and monopo lists but sooner or later they must suc cumb lo Hie demands of tho capitalists. Then It Is thai tho laborer becomes mortified and humiliated. How much better would It be In eveiy instance if the dlffcrentasscmbltcsnnd trade unions were to follow the advice of their leader and Icayo tho strike and boycott alone. Of tho forty-six hundred workmen In the employ of the Missouri Pacific sys tem when the strike was ordered less than two hundred havo been taken back, while the places left vacant by the strikers have been filled with competent men glad to get work at nny price. This Is the result of a strike; yet even now, after this terrible lesson, there are men so bigoted, so blind as to the welfare of the Knights of Labor that they cry out at the least fancied wrong, "strike," "boycott," and expect to bo heard and protected by their order. The sooner such men learn that the Knights of La bor purpose accomplishing tho object they have in view by fairer and more business-like means, the better It will be for them and for the body of men with whom they are associated. Or ganize, agitate and educate are words emblematic of the order oreanize the laboring classes of the world Into one vast body, and agitate and educate Its members on the principles of true man hood and the object for which they labor will not be In vain. Among our enterprising and suc cessful business men, Wm. Miner, of Miner Bro., plays a conspicuous part. Mr. Miner, was born In Mauch Chunk, in tho year 1S37, and Is the oldest son of Ellas and Mary Miner. After attending tho public schools at that place until hU twentieth year, ho went Into ills father's moulding establishment, which was located at that place, and whem he served until the breaking out of the late civil war, when he enlisted In Com pany F., 135 Pennsylvania Volunteers, and served nine months when he was honorably discharged he is now a member of John D. Bcrtolette Post 484, G. A. 1!., of Lehlghton. Mr. Miner moved to this place about 13 years ago, and with ills brother C. Miner, erected the Fort Allen foundry, which the have been limning ever since; this cn tetpriso has giown rapidly during tho past few ear3 and is now recognized as tho leading feature of our town giving employment to about thirty-five men who are kept busy all the year round. .Mr. Miner has filled vnilous borough ofilces during his residence here, and always to the satisfaction of tho people. He Is also a prominent member of tho Knights of Honor. Our popular jew eler, Geo. C. Deals is doing quite a business In the bicycle line. During tho month of July he furnished four wheels to joung men in this place, all of which havoghen the best of satisfaction. Latiry it Sewell, the bakers, of this place, are doing a lushing business. In connection with the bakery they supply picnics, parties and camp meetings with Ice cream and caudles. And now the people of our littlo borough glory in tho fact that they can wall: tho streets without fear of moles tation. Weissport has long needed a "knight of the locust," not so much for the general safety of tho community, as for the metropolitan air It gives a place. Of course in a matter of tills kind, salary Is no object with our borough fathers and it Is safe lo presume that our i'dandy copper" Is pretty well paid. l!ehrlg& Laury, of East Weisspflrt, have opened a sales and exchange stable, and are fully piepared to furnish all kinds of "rigs" at very shoit notice. Our suggestion last week, viz: To set aside ono day of cycry year for the commemoration of the nairiesmid deeds of tho noble martyrs who suffered in the settlement of our town, seems to meet with approval by a number of our folks. It would only bo exhibiting a proper spirit of patriotism if our Le liighton neighbors were to join with us in this matter. Tho c.imp-iiieoting in Weiss grove, near this place, convened on H'cdnes day, and the prospects aro that a suc cessful week of prayeraud thanksgiving will bo had. Strolling through this Ut ile lllago of tents, all seems peace, and quiet, It Is a littlo world of its own, in which the word of God Is preached to penitent sinners; and while the campers-out gain new faith In the wonderful powers of Him who rules the unlvcrso they alsogaln bodily health and strength In breathing tho pure atmosphere in their little mountain homes. We see no reason w hy Weissport hotels should ' not bo "chuck full" of summer guests. Our town otTeis splen did Inducements to pleasure seekers; beautiful, broad and shady thorough fares and ono of tho most beautiful pub lic squares In tho county. In connec tion with the abovo tho delightful drives through our picturesque valleys, which alone la well worth a week's stay here. Under the head of "H'elssport Bus iness Directory," in the Caiihox Ai vooatk, of to-day, appears tho business announcements of a half dozen or more of our progressive hotel men and mer chants, ll'e aro pleased to nolo this evidence of enterprlso on tho part of our citizens and hopo that though of only small dimensions It will grow to larger proportions in time to come. Tho columns of the Aiivoc.itjj meal ways open to our people, and through them they may at any and all times dis cuss matters which pertain to their own advancement anil tho public good. Tho political cauldron Is beginning to boil In tills section now. H'o have It from pretty rellabla authority that a prominent Prohibitionist, of this place, will bo a candidate for legislative honors. If ho succeeds In getting the nomina tion wo think- the prospacts aro fairly good for his election. Tho Prohibition party Is constantly adding new re cruits to their ranks, and the prospects arc that the coming election will bo just a little bit exciting. So mote It be.

A largo holler, w hich formerly belonged to an old camel-back locomotlvo and which has been Ifi use In the machine shops of the Lehigh Coal and Xavlgatlon Company's Works here, exploded with terrific force at about half-past eleven this (Tuesday) morning. About400 men are employed about the works, forty of them being employed In tho machine shops, where the boiler was situated. The boiler was put In fifteen years ago, when the shops were creeled, and has been condemned several times within the past few years, ltu.nor says that the company will be held responsible for to-day's disaster. The machine mid blacksmith shops were badly wrecked, splinters flying In nil directions. TJm lopoit of the ex' plosion brought many people to tho sceno of the disaster, where nlionlblo sight met their gaze. The groans of tho Injured vcrc quickly responded to by our people, and they were taken fiom out the ruins to the homes of fellow workmen, where medical aid was quick ly summoned, and everything In the power of Human hands and minds was done to alleviate their sufferings. At four o'clock this nfternoon the scene of the explosion Is still thronged with people and the greatest consternation prevails. Xcro Weiss, of Weissport, was fatally Injured and was taken to his home on the 2:10 p. m. train. It Is thought that ho will die before he reach es Weissport.

Two days havo passed slneo llic last lesson, In which Christ has constantly taught the people. His evenings wero spent In theliospit ablo Bethany home; llisdnyt in the elly of Jerusalem. On Tuesday morning, returning to the city, He taught tho wonderful lesson from tho withered hgtrce. While teaching in the court of the women in tho temple, Philip And An drew went to 'Him and requested un audience for certain Greeks who Wero present at the feast. These wero prob ably Juda'i7cd Greeks, who had accepted tho principles and followed tl'10 customs of Judaism. They could not go.into Iho court of the women, for, between the court of the Gentiles and the court of the women there was 11 stone fence, bearing upon pillars, placed nt regular distances, the following words in Greek nnd Latin: "Xo alien mut pass witnin the fence round the temple and the court. If any one Lo caught doing so, he must blame himself for the death that w ill follow." In our own day ono of tho slabs, bearing the exact word, has been discovered by M. Gaiineaii during tho excavations of tho "Palestine, Exploration fund." Jesus gives these Greeks audience, nnd leaches them and the others nsscmbed there, some important truths, llespcnks, first, of his own glorification, and uses tho beautiful illustration of a grain of wheat being put into tho ground, djinj, nnd then springing up again in newness of lifeand bringing "forth much fruit." So lie must die that Ho might gather the universal harvest of xouls. To the Greeks He specially says, "If a iy man serve me, let him follow me." They bought Jesus; they must follow Hint throughout lifiyf they would serve Him. At this point Christ utters a prayer of agony. 'Father, save mo from thin hour," and a yoicc from heaven, distinct and clear, gives Him assurance, of the past and promise of the future. Then lie tells of tho glorious ntlrnct ivo power of the cross. "And I, if I ho lifted up frrm the earth, will draw nil men unto me." This is the great attractive force of the ages, which has drawn men of sill classes, nations and kindreds to the Savior of mankind. To that uplifted Redeemer the eyes of men nre continually, turning, hoping for salvation through Him. Ah the ages roll by, Iho cross beconns still moro attractive, for tho only ht.po of a ruined world U in Iho crucified Jcsu.s. As he draws men to Him, lie draws them 0CTof sin and the world.
