The Knpid Transit Coinpnnv's Now Move
In Increasing l ares.
It appears that the Lackawanna Val
ley Kapld Transit company decided on
Friday last to double their fares from
Curhoudule to Forest t'lty, the previous
fare being 10 cents. Now L'O Is askeil.
The Inhabitants who putronize the com
pany are loud In their protestations of
what they term Imposition. Kspeclully
do the workmen who live In the city,
but gain their livelihood at the Wilson
Creek mines, say that they cannot pay
an extra 10 cents, and many have
availed themselves of the engine down
to the breuker in the city. It is said
that conveyances will be placed on the
1'ouil to counteract the company's ud-
vance. This company tried this ex
periment last winter, but it was a fail
ure. Hundreds who live above the ol.l
tannery switch had been accustomed
to attend services In the city; now the
expense will be a barrier, especially to
fi. Millies. The tradesmen of the city
will undoubtedly HUffcr from t)ils ad
vance. A NARROW KSCAl'K.

' tt has been rumored that some of the
Christian friends of the city are about

;iu visibility of re-starting the valuable

to be an encouraging feature in the
future.
Onibondulc a Healthy City.

tllKm the healthy character of the place

the f-onditlon of the city Is what can
be termed healthy.

FOREST CITY.
The Carbondale Herald's Forest City
representative criticised me for stat
ing that the council should have grant
ed a franchise to the Traction company
and writes as If the Traction company
objected to the bulk of the restrictions
imposed by tho Forest City borough
council. Now. 1 do not wish to be un
far, but am only stating the truth In
sayng. that nine-tenths of the people of
this borough are anxious to see tlif
road extended to Forest City and are
dissatisfied with the council for Keeping
It out. It Is also n fact which the coun-
cil minutes verily, that tne company
was willing to agree to all restrictions
insisted upon by the borough fathers,
save a part of one. The restriction in
question provided that the company
should build a bridge on which to cross
the creek at the southern end of the
borough and should also raise and
widen the present highway bridge
across the same creek. The company
contended that ns they would not be
allowed to use the highway bridge to
cross tt was unreasonable to ask
them to fix it up and that the council
might Just as well require them to build
a bridge across the Lackawanna river.
They signified their entire willingness
to construct a bridge across the creek
for their own use, so as not to interfere
with travel across the highway bridge,
and also agreed to accept every other
restriction which the council imposed.
1 hey felt unable to accept the fran
chise solely because they would be com
pelled to 'do a piece of work that was
In no way connected with their pas
sages over the ereen above mentioned.
The Herald correspondent can not deny
that this somewhat peculiar require
ment on the part of the council was the
only thing that stood In the way of the
electric road coming Into Forest City.

CONCERN IXGPROFANITV.
From the Chicago Record.
This being the season when profanltv
Is habitually abjured, it may not be amiss
to illo Into some of the drafts and laterals
of that intensely interesting study. The
buslc elements of profanity are scriptural
utterance. For Instance, when we litter
If we do utter it the expression "damn
It" or ".lamn him," as the case mav bet
we tacitly acknowledge the teachings of
the prophets and the ancient scriptural
historians to be in part at least true. The
wonl "damn" is from tho Latin "dam-

nure." meaning to condemn and especially
meaning "tu decide as wrong and worthy
of punishment." Ami It Is not In the re
mote days of the earlier and possibly less
carefully selecting writers of holy writ
that we find the word used In this sense.
'J'ne scholarly Haul and the cautious Peler
alike employ It In predicting the fate of
the unbeliever. Thus tile uiuu who, appre
ciating the wickedness of another, uses
the expression, "he be damned," or some
collateral phrase, la really on all fours
with the apostle so far as acknowl
edging that a full and adequate punish
ment Is the due of the evilly disposed per
son. The difference, of course. Is that
wheras Paul simply predicted what would
ensue, the modern user of the word as
sumes to try the culprit and if not pass
Judgment at least wish him 111, which is
wicked and not to be tolerated.
:o:
The word "damn," it may be Incidentally
said In passing, is obtaining quite a voRue
a sort of renaissance Just now. being as
siduously propagated by the villain in the
high-class society drama. Who In the last
ten years has not been present when tho
voluminously heshlrted and incessantly
smoking gentleman of tho tine white teeth
has bitten his mustache, glanced angrily
over his left shoulder, with an utter dis
regard far tradition concerning the new
moon, at the newly returned hero (who has
discovered In far Madagascar an old de
cree of divorce which forever settles him,
the villain) and ejucsluated In a gentle
manly tone, "Damn him 7" We have all
heard this, and so the word has been ac
cepted with respect, If not deference, for
society has taken it in,
:o:
There are some other words of similar
lineage, as for instance that which was
earliest used to denominate the infernal
region. The employment of that, too, is a
witness of the truth of scriptural teaching.
When In August one says It Is hotter than
hell, one ventures a term signifying the
greatest possible measure of torrldlty.
One could say "hotter than a blast fur
nace." a reasonably tropical concern, as
you and 1 know, but one might be speak
ing to a man who never saw or heard of a
blast furnace and who had no conception
of the measure of Its heat. When one
mentions the home of his satanlv majesty
speaker or listener are at once at a com
plete understanding with one another. In
the use of that word one may imply that
one's Interlocutor Is to some extent a stu
dent of scripture.
:o:
Unfortunately, however, the users of
profanity are not thus logical and pains
taking in the employment of expression
and so make themselves ridiculous. There
are. too, abnormals who find vocal utter
ance quite Insufficient for them. They have
an undue capacity for deep feeling, but
never had the opportunity to provide
themselves by study and research with the
proper tools, so to apeak, of declaration.
We have In mind one Tom Peet, a foreman
of a switching crew in the Vandallt yards
in Hast St. Louis, who one day received a
telegraphic order from the yardmaster
to switch out a certain car from u. train
and deliver it to a designated connection.
With Infinite trouble und some grumbling
the work was done, but scarcely had the
car. been set on the siding when u second
telegram came Instructing the man to dis
regard the earlier notice and put the vun
buck Into the train from tt J 111 eh It hud been
taken. Peel ut receipt of this stood erect
und for two minutes swore voluminously
but somewhat, tautologically at the red
signal lump of a switch stand. He set the
cur back, however, and had Just finished
up preparatory to taking dinner with the
rest of his crew when a third telegram
came telling 111 in to immediately switch out
that car ami deliver It as tlrst ordered. At
this Peet looked bleakly at high heaven,
ran his tye around the entire horizon for
inspiration, shook his head like a mad
bull, grabbed u -handful of pebbles from
the track and placing them In his mouth
chewed them vehemently, leaped upon the
switch engine and seizing the Iron handles
which operates the whistles, threw Ids
whole soul Into one lung, tlfteeu-mlniite
blast, which consumed all the sleam In
the old kettle; then turning the water Into
the lire-box he leaped down and rushing
on foot to the yardmaster's headquarters
three miles away whipped hi m and re
signed. On the whole, It is well that you have
decided to quit swearing.
