The reason why railroad men seldom
Ttet hurt In leaping on moving trrlns is that
they know just how to do it. They do not
run after or with a rapidly moving car, but
stand with back to the engine and, taking
hold of the forward handrail with tho
hand nearest the train, swing, or rather
are swung, upon the steps. It is easy when
a person knows how to do it, and men exist
upon nearly every railroad who can mount
a train going at thlrty-fivo or forty miles an
hour.

work on or before the 20th of tho present
month the company will shut down all their
work for one year. This Includes the col
lieries at Lansford, Coaldale, Nesquehon
Ing and Tamaqua, employing several thous
and men. The men will resist what they
consider an atbitrary course of tho com
pany. Speaklnc of the coal prospects tho
Coal Trade Journal say that there will be
enough to go round. It says there Is a
dearth of Lehigh Valley coal, only an occa
sional lot being sold as such. There
is no probability of a strike In the Wyom
ing district, and work there is very brisk
Indeed. In the Lehigh there is 110 change,
the men still demanding recognition of
their order. The local market is In such
shape that dealers are always anxious for
the next cargo.
An exchange says "the miners are to
he starved into subjection 1 And yet they
call this' tho enllgtened and advanced nlno
teeuth century; can history furnish a par
allel to this? Kwn the Serfs of Russia, be
fore their emancipation, were subject no
worse conditions that the bloated and
bonded plutocracy Impese upon the miners
of the anthracite coal region. Ireland, sore
ly afflicted as she Is, is In no worse condit
ion than the miners oyer whom the coal
barons domineer. But tho day of final de
liverance will come and we believe the coal
Kings realize It.

On September 20, 18G2,Rev. Samuel S.
Chubb, pastor of Trinity Evangelical church
was married to his estimable wife, nee Cath
erine Watts at Terre Hill Lancaster county
by Rev. P. Delsher, now pastor of the
Eyengellcal church at Fleetwood, Berks
county. Seven of the pastors who were
present at Rev. Chubb's wedding were here
last night to attend the silver wedding,
namely: Rev. and Mrs. Delsher, Mrs. Shober
Mr, Watts and son and the pastor and his

The occasion ot the silver wedding last
evening, filled the parsonage, 708 Elder

Among the long list of presents granted

Rev. S. S, Chubb and family were resi

The following item which we tako front

self. We hope Mr, Smith will find this sec
tion of the stato congenial to his health
and financial prosperity: "F. S. Smith, D.
D. S., departed Saturday for Lehlghton, Fa.
Where he will open an olllco for tho practice
of his profession. During a residence of
six years in this placo ho has succeeded In
building up a largo and constantlj-lncrcas
Ing business. As a dentist, Mr. Smith
ranks among the best, astatonientto which
his work will bear ample testimony. Ow
ing to a s evoro catarrhal difficulty to which
tho climate hero was a constant aggravat
ion, he was compelled to seek a change of
climate. His many friends In social, as
well as In business circles, will regret his
departure, but what is our loss will ho

In his now field of labor. His family will
