The virtues of the water is as great
at the present day as it was in the
time of Charles II., and although the
expense attached to a journey thither
is not as great now as it Was then, we
are not all wealthy enough to under
take it For such the virtue of the
Carlsbad Spring is extracted. ' The

evaporation, containing all the solid
constituents of the water, 'can be oly

Opponents of the bill to establish a
state department of mining will have
another hearing at Harrisburg tomor
row. The Pennsylvania Railroad Relief de
partment in January disbursed $47,59.1
to 1.312 claimants. Since its organiza
tion the department has paid nut $3,
S9U29. The anthracite sales agents fixed the
production of coal for Murch at 60 per
cent of the June production, or about
3.000,000 tons. The production of an
thracite In March, ism, was 2,495,0;;)
tons, and In 1S93, 3,71,744 tons.
The coul shipments over the Hunt
ingdon and Broad Top railroad lust
week were 33,763. tuna, an increase of
621 tons over the same week In 1SM4.
Since Jan. 1 the shipments have been
232,728 tons, an Increase of G,34!l tons
over the same period last year.
As a result of the mine water flowing
Into the Nescopeck creek from thejeddo
tunnel, the fish In that stream are dy
ing. Along the banks beyond the
Coiiyngham the ground is literally
strewn with them und the farmers are
carting them away by the hundreds.'
It Is rumored that the Delawure, Sus
quehanna and Schuylkill Is going to em
ploy seventy more hands owing to the
Increase of the coul trade to run be
tween Drlfton and Perth Amhoy, The
crews that ure on that run are mak
ing plenty of overtime. They are now
running six trains a day to Perth Am
boy. The Jersey Central has Issued an order
that stop-over privileges will be with
drawn between Wilkes-Ilarre and
Scranton nrter March 1. This Is In lino
with the Delaware and Hudson's new
regulations, and ufter next Friday tick
ets will be good for a continuous pas
sage only between Wilkes-Uarre and
Scranton on that road.
A. S. Van Wicklo & Co., who pur
chased the Colcralne collieries a few
months ago,, have made a rich find of
coul In a locullty where It was sup
posed that the vein had been exhausted.
For some time prospectors have been
at work boring on the hillside and Mon
day they were rewarded by penetrating
a five-foot vein. This Is considered a
valuable seam fit that place and ar
rangements for driving a tunnel to de
velop It will be begun at once.
All lines of the Pennsylvania Rail
road company east of Pittsburg and
Erie for January, 18, as compared
with the sume month In 1894, show an
Increase In gross earnings of $r,IS,441;
an Increase In expenses of $ini,550; an
Increase in net earnings of SMB.sm. All
Imes west of Pittsburg and Erie for
January, ISM, as compared with the
same month In 1894, shows an Increase
In gross earnings of $175,766; a decrease
In expenses of $74,511; an Increase in
net earnings of $250,277.
The Railway Age has compiled a table
giving the number of men employed on
the five principal railways in the state
of Pennsylvania, together with the
amount of money paid them for the
year 1S94. which figures are compared
with those for 1893. This table shows
that on the lines In question there were
109.405 last year, against 133,196 In the
previous year, a decrease of nearly 24,
000 in the working force of these roads.
The wages of these men amounted to
$61,301,359 In 1894, while In the year
previous they reached $79,738,931, which
represents a saving to the companies of
$18,437,572. This enormous saving in tho
annual expenses of these five lines Is but
one example of the general cutting
down that has been going on through
out tho country.
The report that railroad mileage
tickets on the Wabash lines will here
after puss as currency at all the ho
tels and theaters In towns touched by
that road was called to the attention
yesterdny of Chief Clerk It. M. Pile,
of the passenger department of
the Pennsylvania railroad. Mr. Pile
was asked If there was any possibility
of thut plan bulng adopted by tho
Pennsylvania railroad, and replied
most decidedly that there Is not. He
doubted whether It would be legal to
use the tickets as currency, and was
inclined to disbelieve the report that
such a system has been Introduced by
the Wabash olllclnls. The object of the
system Is snld to be to accommodate
traveling men who may find themselves
short of money and cannot convenient
ly wait for a remittance, and an agree
ment has been made with the hotels In
some cities to honor the coupons at their
face value.

to our patrons:
Washburn-Crosby Co. wish to assure their many pat
rons thut they will this year hold to their usual custom
of milling STRICTLY OLD WHEAT until the new crop
is fully cured. New wheat is now upon the market, and
owing to the excessively dry weather 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 thret
months to mature before grinding.
This careful attention to every detail of milling haa
placed Washburn-Crosby Co.'s 'flour far above other
brands.
