Plttston, Pa., Jan. 21. We are grow
ing. Constantly advancing on every
hand. Advancing In Industries, ad
vancing In government, and most of
all advancing In 'population. Kven with
cur many new and improved dwellings
erected within the past year on both
Ides of the river, our real estate agen
cies are unable to supply the ever in
creasing demand forcomfortable houses
of u moderate rental fee. An official of
the Lehlg-h Valley Hallroad company
recently expressed a desire that morn
of 'his employes should move to Pitts
iton, as It was much more convenient
and would save a great amount of time
and unnecessary travel to and from
their work. His men, or their repre
sentatives, came to our city and after
a thorough canvass found that it would
be Impossible for them to find dwellings
within their means. The season Is now
ripe, with a new city charter, new
manufactories and the re-organization
of our board of trade, for our merchants
and property holders to place before
our would-be citizens houses that will
make botfh adequate and pleasant
homes.
The great fire sale will commence at
X B. Klrby'a furniture 'store on Wed
nesday next and will continue until the
entire stock Is closed out.
Who Is the Owner
A mysterious article was seen on the
river early this morning which created
considerable comment. The attention
of a gentleman crossing the lower
bridge was called to a lady's seal skin
muff floating on, the surface of the
water. The incident may give evidence
to another case of self murder. The
muff had to all appearances been in
the water but a short time. It may
have been dropped from the ferry or
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
railroad bridges. The nearest wagon
bridge up the river is located at Tunk
hannock. We wish to rectify the error made in
our letter this morning In regard to the
sufferers to be aided by the West Side
Wethudlst church. Their efforts are to
assist the Impoverished settlers In
Nebraska. The collection taken yester
day morning amounted to $52, with
many contributions of clothing, etc.
The Plttston agents of the United
States and National Express companies
have very kindly offered to forward all
goods to the sufferers free of charge.

Mitten by a Vicious Dug.
JIlss Theresa Webber, of Center
street, was bitten by a savage dog on
Saturday last. The dog was owned by
a, Polander and has been complained
of as being very cross and vicious.
The dog, without apparent cause,
sprang upon Miss Theresa, throwing
her to the ground, and succeeded In
forcing his fangs Into the Mesh 'ntar the
thigh. The screams of the girl at
tracted the attention of some 'Workman,
who, with shovels, succeeded in driving
off the brute. The Polander has been
feeding his dog with fresh meat and
whiskey for some time past, l'.urgess
'Maloney haa issued an order that the
dug be disposed of immediately.

WHAT YOU NOTICE
Bt first, perhaps, in taking tfac Carls
tad Sprudel Salt regularly, Is a de
crease in weight It Is getting rid of
all the unhealthy, unnatural flesh and
tissueif you have any. That Is what
makes it so valuable In cases of obesity.
But after that, if you are thin al
ready, the firm, sound, healthy tlcsb
that you need comes in a thoroughly
natural way. Your digestive organs
ore put into perfect condition; your ap
petite is sharpened; there's no waste;
the food that you take nourishes you.
' No matter whether you're too stout
or too thin the Carlsbad Sprudel Salt
brings you to the proper, healthy
standard, either way.
. Take no imitations sold as "im
proved" or "artificial" Carlsbad Salt,
which are only mixtures of ordinary
Glauber Salt and Seldlitz Powder, sold
by unscrupulous dealers in order to
make larger, profits. The only genu
ine imported article has the signature
of "Eisner & Mcndelson Co., Sole
Agents, New York," and the seal ol
the city of Carlsbad on every bottle.

INDUSTRIAL TOPICS.
There were 13,885 business failures
In the pta'tes last year.
The Pullman company has declared
a dividend of $2 a share, ipayable Feb.
15 to 'holders of record Feb. 1.-
The railways in Ohio, carried 85,000,
0U0 ipaisse-ngers .W.li lai-tf two ytars
without a faitai accident to one of thi-in.
Shipments of Pocahontas coal over
the Norfolk and Western railroad for
the week ended Jan. 12 incrtused 5,172
tons.
The Philadelphia Record intimates
that the Lehigh -Valley railroad may
soon have am 'independent line from
Bethlehem 'to 1'hlla.deiphla.
It Is estimated that Vhi gross earn
ings of. twenty-nine railroads for tSr;
second week of January decreased 1.G7
per cent., and those of seventy-live
roads for the first week decreased l.C
per cent.
The year 1S94 placed to Its credit a
total production of 30.000,000 barrels of
oil from the Pennsylvania fields. This
Is only three-quarters of a million bar
rels short of the production of 18113.
ltut while the producer sold Jils oil at
an average price of 04 cents In 1S!)3, the
oil he produced in 181)4 broug-ht him
over 84 cents a barrel.
The New York Sun says: "The value
to the anthracite coal carrying compa
nies of even a slight advance in ratfJ
Is broug'ht out clearly In the recently
Issued annual report of tihe Lehigh Val
ley railroad, In which the statement Is
made that an Increase of .078 of a cent
per ton per mile would have Increased
the revenues of Pile company $1.400,000."
Among the Important aotli.ns that are
expected it come up In court 'tbls week
from Carbon dale Is that of C. P. Ihul
lock vs. Stroud & Chaimberlaln. The
suit 'Is one for dumages, the claim being
that Mr. Halloek's property was under
mined by the coal opera tors of the firm,
ithatcoal was 'tukn thurefrum and that
the surface was also left In a dangerous
condition.
Eastern linos are experimenting with
an. appliance to avoid rear-end colli
sions In case of accident. It is a simp-la
carriage to run back on the rails,
the motive power being a rocket, which
can be exploded In any kind of wealCier.
The carriage holds a quantity of Greek
fire, which is lighted with the rocket,
the propulsive power of the latter be
ing sufllclent to send -the carriage back
3,000 feet. The most dangerous acci
dents are rear-end collisions, and this
device -will almost certainly obviate the
danger of such accidents.
The proposed overland route from
America to Europe, via the Trans
Siberian railway. Is one f the biggest
enterprise of ithe country, and Is pro
