MINES MAY CLOSE. A Lansford
dispatch says: The official announce
ment Is made here to the effect that all
collieries owned and operated" by the
Lehigh Coal and Navigation company
throughout the Panther Creek valley
would close down at once and remain
Idle until May 4. This move on the
part of the company is discouraging to
the miners, who have only been aver
aging about half time for several
months. This will be the longest con
tinuous suspension which has occurred
In the Panther Creek valley for a num
ber of years. The shut-down Is due to
the stagnant condition of the coal trade.

GRAIN MOVEMENT. Wheat re
selpts continue about steady, but ex
ports are much lighter,, the decline in
price this week falling 'to Immediately
counteract the bad effect on foreign
buying of last week's advance. Ship
ments of tlour are still less encourag
ing, and corn no longer goes out In
great volume, although a slight excess
over last year is reported. Receipts of
corn at interior cities show a heavy
gain over recent weeks' movement, and
also exceed the arrivals for the corre
sponding week In 1895. The total west
ern receipts of wheat for the crop year
thus far amount to 167,732,830 bushels,
agninst 137.G10.209 busTiels during the
previous year. Atlantic exports of
wheat, including Hour, at the four prln-
Ttpat ' cities' thTs week, were 1,081,264
bushels, against 1,392.862 last week, and
1,708,873 bushels a year ago.

THE COAL TllADE. The anthracite
coal market last week was firm at
$3.60a3.70 for stove, f. o. b in New York
harbor. The demand was fair, because
It was reported that an advance In
prices of about 25 cents per ton for the
domestic sizes will be made early next
month if the state legislature adjourns
at the time expected. According to
Dun, it is shown In the caution which
la being exercised that the companies
In the combination do not care to risk
oillclal investigations, though they as
sert that there Is nothing In the agree
ment contrary to the letter of the law.
The stocks of coal at tidewater were
further reduced by purchases of mid
dlemen, and the producing companies
sent most of their nevly mined coal to
the lake ports, where It will this week
begin to be shipped largely to the west
and northwest by the water routes.
This movement will continue through
out the summer.

CAVE-IN AT ES1Y KIN.
Lehigh Valley Siding (iocs Down .Vain
Track Not Affected.
Some time early Saturday morning
the siding at Espy Hun on the Lehigh
Valley railroad caved in, creating con
siderable damage. The cave is due to
the fuct that the Bliss mine workings
of the Delaware. Lackawanna and
Western company at Hanover, less
than half a mile distant from Espy
Run. have been worked un to a point
directly hneth the Lehigh Valley
tracks. The extent of the cave-in is
quite large, but It Is particularly for
tunate that the main track Is not af
fected and therefore trains are running
as usual.
While there may be some danger of
another cave, which, If It occurred.
Would be likely to Involve the mam
track and thus prevent tratllc. yet the
railroad and mine ofllclals believe that
such a catastrooho Is only a remote
possibility, as they think the ground
has now settled.
Some Scandals Are Honked.
The arrest of James Cartrlght.
charged with keeping a bawdy house at
Alldvale, on the plank road above At III
Creek, threatens to be a serious af
fair. He Is bound over to appear at
court next Wednesday, and in the
meantime numerous subpoenas have
Keen issued. Many of the latter are
for traction company employes who
have been accus'omed to let people' off
at Cartright's. His ulnec wus known
by the Initiated as "Buffalo" and was
so announced by the conductors when
the male and female Dr. Jeckylls and
Mr. Hydes were on hoard. Siime heart

and mere than one t';unlly In town will

WHEN SIlOCKI Il BY EI.ECTKICITV.
The Formula of Trcntmant of Victims
Prescribed by n trench Authority.
From the Medical Record.
One of the contingencies of modern
civilization which is almost entirely
new and Is wholly dependent upon the
development of modern industry is the
treament of accidents from electric
shock. The matter 1ms been discussed
quite thoroughly by physicians in this
country, but it has been worked out
perhaps more systematically by l)r.
D'Arsonval, of Paris, who has recently
made a report to the Academic de Med
ecine of Purls upon the method of treat
ing persons Injured by elrctrleul shocks.
D'Arsonval states that electricity
causes death sometimes directly by the
disruptive and electrolytic effects of
the charge on the tissues. This death
is final. It sometimes, however, cnuses
death indirectly by arrest of respira
tion and syncope, caused by stimulation
of the nerve centers. I'nder these cir
cumstances a person may be revived if
proper measures are applied.
The formula for reviving the victim
of electric shock Is this: The person
so disabled should be treated like one
drowned; in other words, he should be
laid uuon the back and artlllclal res
piration performed In the way that Is
ordinarily prescribed. Some further
practical advlco, however, is given to
those who are called at once to the
scene of the accident, and at the time
when the person Is perhaps still In
contact with the wires.
Of course the first thing to be done is
to stop the current or break the con
tact. In doing the latter one should not
touch the victim on the face or hands,
or any naked part of the body. It is
better to lift him by the coat-tails i,r tJ
throw a blanket over him and pull him
by this. Nothing that Is wet should
be thrown uuon him and If his clothes
are wet, the hands should not be put In
contact with them. A piece of dry wood
can be placed under the body and he
can then be lifted. The further treat
ment of the case Is the familiar one
applied In attempting to restore the
d rowned. The arms tyre worked nml
the tongue is kept drawn out; the body
may sometimes be rubbed thoroughly
with a cloth or brush In order to In
crease the circulation of the blood. Oxy
gen and perhaps a stimulant may be
employed.
Scrofula, Salt Rheum
And All Other Blood Diseases-How
They May Be Cured.
Speaking limply from what Hood's Car

but in thousands of cases, we can honestly

eases ol the bloody whatever the cause.
By Its peculiac Combination, Propor

VEGETABLE COMPOUND.
Tha Best Medicine Eier Invented fcs
Wontea-Advieee Ills Fatieat to I'm It,
The following letter from Mrs. E. R.
Weber, of 1707 Jefferson St., Baltimore,
Md., should dispel all doubt from the
tninds of the most skeptical people
I was a great X
offerer of fallini' Ct y ,
of the womb and
kidney trouble.
My dear old doc
tor said I would
never be a well
wciuan until I
had under
gone an
operation,
and even
then, I would
always have
trouble thatx the womb was too weak
to go without a support. I had been
tlx weeks in bed and they were getting
ready to perform an operation, when I
picked tip a paper that had been laid
on tho bed, and glancing at it, saw
your advertisement.
' I begged my husband to let me try
a bottle, lie at once got it and I began
its uso. My improvement was rapid,
and soon I was able to be around, feel
ing like a new woman. My doctor was
surprised, and thought my recovery
wasdue to his remedies. 1 showed him
the Vegetable Compound aud toldliim
that my recovery w as due to that
alone. He looked at it and then said.
fv 'Mrs. Weber, I do not
iv oeucve in patent
medicines, but 1
will say that
Lydia E. Pink
lam's Vegetable
Compound is the best
medicine
that God
ever in
vented for
woman.
Continue to
use it.' I did so and nm entirely
cured of all my troubles, and am strong
and well. It will prove to all suffering
women the blessing it is to me, if they
will try it." Mas. K. 11. Webkb, 170?
