A commit tee of Hungarians from the hill here made their appearance and wanted the council to put In a sewer lor them to carry off their slops and waste water.

E. Williams, secretary of the Hlnkely council: Yours ut the 14th Inst, to hand. In reply we have to say that by the correct rule of law Dr. J. B. Grover cannot collect from jour borough this absurd claim. Hut, nevertheless, by the Justice of peace rule of uctlon he probably could, tn case he Is determined to do so. The nlmost universal practice of Justices of the peace Is to give the plaintiff a judgment. In your case the amount Is too small to be appealed from. It would be cheaper to pay the small amount than have the trouble of a law suit, even though you might get the suit." Respectfully yours. Ward & Horn, Attorneys at Law.

An ordin ance was Introduced by Councllmen Reese, of the Third ward, in regards to bids and sneciflcatlons for erecting electric plants, which caused quite a debate by several of the other council men, nnd especially by the electric light committee. Mr. Illoes, the chnlr miiii of the electric committee, asked Mr. Reese to explain his reason for In troducing such ordinance, but Mr. Reese did not reply. The electric light committee stated that they had visit ed several plants and reported progress. There were several consulting electri cal engineers present, among whom Was ;. H. Goldsberrv. a renresontn- tlve of the Fort Wayne Electric cor poration, of Fort Wayne, Ind. He gave some good suggestions to tho council how they should proceed to erect their electric plant. F. E.

Ho far as tlie writer knows, all, except thn Ilnhway plan, have failed. And this plan, owing to Its objectionable feature. Is not likely to llnd many advocates. Indeed, notwithstanding Its success, it has ulready been abundoned by the au thorities of Itahway themselves. The Haliway plan was suggested only when the usual methods of arresting and lin ing tramps had failed to free the locality of their presence.

The notices were posted; but tho llrst tramps who saw them treated the matter ns a Joke, nnd proceeded, as usual, to beg from house to house. Thoy were probably tho most surprlcd vagrants who ever visit ed New Jersey, when they found them selves, next morning, forced to mend and clean tho streets, each man wearing a ball nnd chain ilveted to one of his tin kles. Tho unusual punishment crcnted great Interest. Itahwuy corresponucnts of New York papers telegraphed tho news, which was then disseminated throughout tho country by means of press associations; and wlthlr. a brief pcilod tramps from one end of the land to tho other were fnmlllnr with the "horrible fate" that would nwult them upon a visit to Railway. The gentiemnn who advised tho mayor to app.y tills summury treatment said recently that, after six of them hud been so treated, the city wns absolutely freed from tramps, and that, although tho plan hns not been carried out of recent years, Its eiieet hnd been so salutary that It Is exceptional, even today, for a tramp to enter tho comities of that municipality.

KEYSTONK'S UJMHEIt TRADE. Exceeded Only by Thnt ol Michigan, Whoso Output This Year Will Ho Over l.-iO,000,0(0. From the Sun. Pennsylvania has long held u position of great prominence in respect to its wool and lumber products, and Is now exceeded only by Michigan, tlie forests of which produce In n yenr more wood for export than any other state. Wll llamsport, in Lycoming county, is the centre of the lumber business of Penn sylvania, nnd In 18D7 there were raft ed through the great Susquehanna boom 912.40G logs, of which SSl.SO'S logs were hemlock and 77,09,1 were pine and hard wood. The hemlock scaled 100, C53.220 feet. There has been nn enor mous Increase In the amount of hem lock as compaied with tlie pine since lSS-,7. Duiing 1SS7 the Pennsylvania railroad carried out ot Wllllamsport fi,34!) cars of lumber, aggregating 101, 5S4,On') feet, nnd the Reading 3.439 cars, carrying 87,021,000 feet. Northern Pennsylvania, especially northeastern Pennsylvania, Is abundantly supplied with forests, and the geographical po sition of Wllllamsport has made It the natural t.hlpplng port. The Susquehan na liver, emptying at Havre de Grace, gives all watr communication Into Chesapeake Bay and through It to the sea. According to the census of 1S!)0 Penn sylvania had then nearly 2,000 lumber mills with an Invested capital of $15, mv,,(,00; 5C0 planing mills with a capi tal of $15,000,000, and nearly 1,000 fur niture factories with a capital of $10, 000,000. While Pennsylvania has not withstood ery successfully the active nnd nlmost ruinous competition of Michigan, the forests of which furnish in great abundnnce the woods best suitable for furniture making. It would t.'-em from some of the figures at hand that she. hns been recovering lost ground, and the Indications for 1S9S, following the remarkably good showing of 1S97, are excellent. There Is expect ed at Wllllamsport 110,000,000 feet, and 'bv rail an nddllional 11,000.000, making nn estimated output for the season or l51,noO,0'K. The value of tho lumber industiy of Wllllamsport In the past tan be gained from a realization of the fact that since 1SC2 there has passed through the boom, us It Is called, the grand total of ,407,0S4,1S2 feet of lum ber, representing a value of hundreds of millions of dollars. During tho past eight or ten years a vigorous effort has been made to devel op the forestry Interests of many of the southern states, but while tlie market lur Miitthurn wood hns been enlurged there has been no corresponding in crease in tho trade In the manufactur ed articles. Michigan's lumber trade this yeir, will exceed, it is estimated, S15c,noii,OeO. but Alabama, a state rich in fuiests, will, it is estimated, fall below $10,000,000 and Tennessee belcAv $.'..000,000. There aro In all the I'nlted States nearly 400.000 persona engaged in lumbering, of whom by far the lar ger number are In Michigan. STOP THAT COUGH. The Only Sure and Safe Way to Slop It Is Pe-riMia.

"Ono of the great evils of tlm present time." said Mr. Blyktns, as he settled himself In his easy chair, "is tho excess ot frivolous literature which It Is develop ing.
