posed that tho lire originated In the

ing thtough the rooms. On entering
the billdlng he learned that Mrs.
Qulnn was up stairs and with great
dillleulty he wns successful In bring
ing her to the open air. The tire alarm
brought the William Walker Hose
company to the scene, but despite
their efforts the house was totally de

The council met in regular session Inst
evening. All the members answered to
roll call but Joseph Dempsey. After
adopting the minutes of the previous
meeting a committee from the Holy
Name society of the Sacred Heatt
parish asked council to pass an oidl
nance making It a misdemeanor to cut
or murk Indecent llgures or represen
tations on the sidewalks, fences, depots
or public buildings. It was referred to
the law and ordinance committee with
Instructions to draft an ordinance as
per request of the society.' 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.
Their cause was urged by the Hun
garian councilman and William Ed
munds. After it had been explained to
him that the only way they could get
n sewer was by presenting a petition to
council, signed by people owning a ma
jority of tile feet frontage on tin- street
and bearing all the expense except the
cross streets, which expense would be
borne by the borough, he still Insisted
that the rest of the people ought to be
taxed to oblige this element.
The committee appointed nt a former
meeting to look up the opening of the
olil plank road by the Ontario and
Western, -west of the Lewis property,
reported that their attorney would

the request of the following communi
cation, which the council asked the
preas repiesentatlves present to pub
lish: "Mr. T. 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.

ance was Introduced by Councllmen
Reese, of the Third ward, in regards
to bids and sneciflcatlons for erecting

debate by several of the other council

miiii of the electric committee, asked

It would he Impossible to uscertnlu nnd
describe tho many methods which liavo
been tried to solve the tramp problem.
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

of their presence. Bltiiatcd on the main

the mayor that notices should bo con
spicuously posted throughout tho cltyi
warning tramps that they would bo nr
rested on sight, utiu put to hard l(bor on
tho strcetH In chain-gangs. 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. Instead of walk

to or from New York, tlie vngrunt waits

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

No refinement can hide catarrh. No
caution conceals Its symptoms. Cough
ing, sneezing, hawking, splttlini,
wheezing, blowing, gagging all theso
disagreeable sounds are made more or
less by the victim uf catarrh. Sho
would not do It If sho could help It.
There Is only ono wise thing to do,
and that Is, Hnd a cure. Not a tem
porary relief, but it permanent cure.

"Ono of the great evils of tlm present

Inquire!! his wife.
"Of coqrse It is. And tlie worst of It Is
thut there Is no way of keeping this kind
of reading from circulating. It cun be
bought for a penny or so. and It passes
from hand to hand till countless minds
ure saturated with Us Influence."
As he spoke he looked over Into the
corner, where Johnny Hlyklns was lean
ing with unusual diligence,
"There!" he exclaimed, pointing to the
boy; "I do not doubt thut we have an

cxamplo of tho condition which I Just
described right hero In our home, Johnny
lllyklns, como hero to me, sir."
Tlio Ind reluctantly obeyed, holding a
pnper behind him as he advanced,
"Now, don't try to tu.. mo that you
were studying your lessons, for I know
bettor."
"I wasn't studying any lessons; I know
them nil."
"You wero probably rending of how the
red-handed avenger slew forty Indians
by exploding a cannf dynamite In their
midst, or how Dick, tho train boy, rescued
the daughter of the president ot the rnll
way from a gnng of road agents and then
eloped with her."
"I don't care for such things," wns tho
nnswer, In a quiet, supcrfor tone. "I
wns reading of how Ted MiMnnus. the
short stop, skinned Ills nose nnd got his
hand spiked whllo sliding to third base."
"I'll hot Teddy got there, though!" ex
claimed Mr. Hlyklns.
"Ves: It was ono of the prettiest steals
mndo In a long lime."
"Thnt youngster Is going to be one of
tho best players we ever had."
"And I hnd Just finished reading nbout
two horrible murders nnd a chicken light
mid a mysterious disappearance, and
ubout how Foxy Joe got knocked out In
tliree rounds iy u new iignt-weignt.
"You don't mean to telt me tlint a
light-weight knocked out Foxy Joe!"
"Last night."
"Lot me have the part of tho paper
thnt tells about It. And by the way, my
boy, I'm sorry If I did you nn Injustice.
It's a great relief to Unit my fears thnt
you were wasting your time wholly with
out reason."
