THE SCI? ANTON TRIBUNE-FRIDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 21, 1894.
GENERAL
NEWS
OF
la the opinion of the Philadelphia
Stockholder "no coal combination oan
b formed, and be successful, unit it
looludea the Reading, the Lehigh Val
ley and other prominent iiteiests. It
could not bo successful evon if every
anthracite coal producing company in
PennsyWaaia should combine gainst
the Reading. The latter is a too pow
erful factor in the trade to be ignored.
It can, without assistance, flood the
market to the extent that prices would
be a eeeondary consideration.
Of course, (it tonld not live i through
inch a war, bat neither could other
companies, It would drive them all
to the wall, and it is safe to presume
that the interests which control these
properties are not likely to have such
disaser occor at this or any other
time." If the Pennsylvania Railroad
company would listen to reason and do
ita ahara toward observing restrictive
requirements, there would bo little or
no question of the nttitude of the other
carrying companies. It our Philadel
phia contemporary be sincere in its
solicitude for the welfare of the an
thracite interests it will not overlook
the stubborn and hurtful policy of
President Roberts.
...
t The Jersey Central is fast ascending
into the ranks of the leading currying
corporations of the state. On Tuesday,
says the Hazloton Standard, they
placed an order with the American
Manufacturing company for 3,000
thirty-ton gondolas, equipped with tlio
Janny couplor. This aBt number
will be equal to 10,500 small "jim
mies," and will have a total capaoity
of 105.000 tons of coal, The new gon
dolas will be of greater width and
lenjcth than the twenty-live tonnors
now generally used. With the intro
duction of the new and improved gon
dolas the days of the coal hoppers
are at an end. As fast as tbey are
taken to the shop, if it is thought that
the expense to repair them will be very
great, they are burned up for the iron
tbey contain. The companies in gen
eral are anxious to abandon their use,
because tbey are not fitted to be
cnnpled and braeed in between gon
dolas. They are so light that the dan
ger of them jumping the track is a
constant dread to train men, aud it
will only be a few years until they are
entirely destroyed.
.
C. C Waite, president and general
manager of the Columbus and Hocking
Valley road, says business on the Co
lumbus ana Hocking Valley road has
been very satisfactory the last few
weeks, the coal movement over the
line, which is one of the chief features
of cosiness, having been very heavy.
What business would be in the next
few months Mr. Waite tbinks depends
largely on what tnrn business gener
ally may take. Stocks of coal are
light all over the country, and should
the manufacturers become busy it will
mean a heavy coal traffic through tbo
fall and winter.: This, of course, re
fers to bituminous coal.
i
A mathematician of the New York
Press has been doing some interesting
figuring, with this result: Editor
Saward, of the Coal Trade Review,
Bys that New York burns about 6,
000,000 tons of anthracite and bitu
minous coal every year, and bis au
thority is unquestioned by the trade.
He says fnrther that every ton of coal
contains, on an average, about one
cubic yard or twenty-seven cubio feet.
At that estimate a pile of coal big
enough to feed the thousands of fires
burned in the metropolis for one year
would contain 102,000.000 of cubic
feet. Possibly these figures fail to
carry any moaning, but some notion
of their magnitude will be (rained
when It is understood that 163,000,000
of cable feet would fill a bin 80 feet
wide, 40 feet deep and 50,625 feet long.
and that if the bin were Bet down in
Broadway it wonld roach northward
from the City halt the whole length
of tho street and along the Boule
vard away up to One hundred and
Sixty-seventh street In some parts of
the street there would be room for car
riages, trucks and foot passengers by
the side of the bin, but in other parts
- tne thoroughfare would be tilled from
building to building. This enormons
coal bin, emptied out and piled up on
Washington Squaro, would make a pile
Desute wbloh the hiliei tower even
would hide its diminutive head, and
the great Washington monument
would look like a moderate sizad Dost.
This square is 900 by 450 feet, as stated
above, and 6,000,000 tons of coal piled
upon its area would tower up rather
more than 1,200 feet into the air, so
high that the YAK A tower, which is a
shade under 1,000 feet, would need to
be raised nearly the boigbt of Trinity
church steeple (2'j9 feet) in order to
reach the top of the pile.

"Oh, papa, see tho pretty humming
bird!"
Tho object at which the child pointed
was poised above a big white flower on
rapidly agitating wings, robbing the blos
som of nectnr with Its long bonk.
'That is not a liummiritt bird, pet," fcnid
the gentleman who sat on the porch in the
gathering dusk of evening. "It is a horn
blower moth. Once upon it time it was a
big green caterpillar."
"A caterpillar, pupa?''
"Yes, dearie. The insect which looks so
like a humming bird, as you say, is an en
emy of my own, because it destroys to
bacco, l'erhaps 1 woulil not liavo una to
pay so much for this cigar I am smoking
if there were no such moths in existence."
"Hut the moth does not eat tobacco,
papa."
o, my ilear, but It lays eggs tnat
hatch out into caterpillars, nnd the cater
pillars feed on the tobacco leaves. There
ure plenty of them over ill Maryland and
Virginia, and the planters have to fight
them constantly. Tho moth deposits its
eggs on the leaves and the now born worms
eat holes throngh them, which render
them useless for making cigurs. 'U'hcn
they are full grown they. arc nlxiut threo
inches long. They aro bright green with
small red bends und aro very fat mid un
pleasant." 'What becomes ot them alter tuey get
big?"
'Oh, t bey keep on entmg as long as tncy
arc growing, gobbling tip whole leaves and
plants, and after sliedduig their skins a
few times they burrow into the ground
and stay there quite torpid for awhile.
Then tbey come out of the earth in the
shape of great moths, Rttth nstjje one you
fuw a moment ago. After that they do
notenroto feed upon tobacco leaves any
more, but they live on the juices ot flowers,
particularly on those of the hnnoysncklo
nnd a plant called tlio 'Jamestown weed.'
They extract tlie honey tiom tho blossoms
by means of a flexible tongue five or six
inches in length. When they are not feed
ing the tongue is coiled up like a watch
spring under the head. Pretty Foon they
lay their eggs on tbo tobacco leaves uuu
then die."
"lint what do they do to kill them?"
"A favorite way of the planters over in
Maryland is to pLmt the Jamestown weeds
in tho tobacco fields and put in each flower
a little block arsenic orrthpr poison. Then
tho moths come along, feed on tbo poisoned
honey of tbe blossoms and die. Men go
through tbe fields also and kill tbe cater
pillars by piuchiug off their heads. If such
measures were not taken the insects would
destroy the tobacco crops." Washington
Star.
"Mnklng Up" with a Prince.
The following story would seem incred
ible if my father hod not heard it from an
eyewitness. When Colonel Iennox, after
ward Duko of Richmond, culled out and
nearly shot tbo Duke of York, the indig
nation of the royal family and their friends
wuscxtreme. After a time, however, the
prince regent forgave tho audacious duel
ist und ijuite unexpectedly asked him to
dinner. A largo party was awaiting the
arrival of their royal host when, to their
amazement, Colonel Lennox wus an
nounced. Being received with silence nnd cold
looks he resolved to mark bis sens! of the
courtiers' disapproval. So be laid down
two chairs-side by side on t he floor and
leaped over them. Being a man of singu
lar uctivity, he repeated this little comedy
after laying a third chair over the first
and again after laying a fourth on the
second and ngain after laying a fifth on the
summit. At this. last jump, however, his
foot caught the. topmost chair and tbe pile
wus scattered over the floor.
At this moment tbo prince entered the
room, nnd in astonishment asked the un
seasonable athlete what on earth he was
about. "Keully, sir," replied tbe una
bashed visitor, "it is most unfortunate.
Xoone spoke a word, and I had to nniuso
myself; but I sincerely hope that none of
your royal highness' (bail's is broken."
Tlio prince laughed, mid tbo matter blew
over. "No one but a thorough gentleman,"
said my father, who used to pronounce
this word with a peculiar emphasis, and to
employ it in a somewhat narrowly exclu
sive sense, "could have carried the affair
off as Colonel Iiiuox did." L. Tolle
macho in Fortnightly Review.
The Snub Mused Little Mun.
Tho poor little woman was traveling
from Baltimore to Chicago with six small
children. Three of them were ill nnd she
bad her hands and lap more than full.
Every one in the car tried throughout the
day todo what they could to alleviate her
sufferings. A kindly old gentleman played
with t no not too inviting two-year-old, and
a jolly commercial traveler kept the wig
gling and inquisitive oldest Uy as quiet
as possible wit h stories of his own boys at
home. Dainty Indies opened well stocked
traveling ligs to the many necessities of
the little brood, nnd the traveling public
seemed disposed to show its utmost kind
liness to the overburdened woman.
The only person who showed no Interest
was an insignificant, snub nosed little man
who sat in tlw back of t he car and read
newspapers. At hist bedtime came, and
tlie porter made up a couple of sections in
whk'h the tired mother might bestow her
offspring. When they were safely settled,
the passengers were rendered almost
speechless by the conduct of the lit tle snub
nosed inau, who skulked down the aisle
aud crawled into the berth where the wo
man was hushing a wailing child.
When it dawned upon them that he was
the husband and father of their proteges,
it took all the persuasion of the cooler
beaded to prevent an immediate mobbing

The Way tv Kut ISrearf.
"I believe the American is the liest eater
in the world," said Koliort A. Howard, of
Baltmiarc, "us be is also tbo best fed man.
He knows what is goixl to eat and how to
cook it and combines in his menu the best
dishes of all nations, but with all that he
is woefully deficient in his eating in one
very essential respect, and that is he per
sists in slicing bis liaker's bread ns he does
a pound cake. On a recent trip to Europe
I noticed that tbe Frenchmen never cuts
his bread, and tbe man who applies his
knife to a louf in a French restaurant or
hotel is at. once set iwu as ill brivl.
"The Frenchman always breaks his
bread and pulls it to pieces instead of
slicing it m we do. There is excellent
sense In this custom, too, us Uiave found,
for baker's bread, eaten as the Frenchman
eats it, is undoubtedly sweeter und tastes
much fresher." fcwin r nmcisco Argonaut.

mmth To Our
Washburn-Crosby Co. wish to assure their many
patrons ' that they will this year hold to their usual
custom of milling STRICTLY OLD WHEAT until tha
new crop is fully cured. New wheat is now upon tho
market, and owing to tha excessively dry weathers
many millers are of the opinion that it is already '
cured,, and in proper condition for milling. Washburn-Crosby
Co. will take NO RISKS, and will allow
the new wheat fully three months to mature before
grinding. This careful attention to every detail of milling has
placed Washburn-Crosby Co.'s flour far above all
other brands.
