The report that negotiations ate In progress for the solo of the ltavltic mine to tho Pennsylvania Coal com pany recalls a golden opportunity that wns lost by tho ofllcers ot the Penn sylvania Coal company some forty years ngo. The Senrlo tract of coal land Is Included in the Ravine prop erty. This was offered to tho Penn sylvania Coal company by Mr. Searlo (it $125 per acre, and the Into Andrew T. McCllntoek, of Wllkcs-Barre, who wns attorney for the company, made an agreement t,o take the property at that figure, on condition that the agreement should be approved by thu president of the company. John Kwen was president at that time, and the situation of coal affairs hereabout led htm to decide against the purchase of tho tract. Tho fact that the property was somewhat oft the Pennsylvania company's lino nt that time nnd that coal land hereabout was abundant then probably had some thing to do with the president's de cision. In tho light of later years, however, the refusal to accept the offer wns a great mistake and has cost tho company dearly. There are four veln9 of cool on tho tract. Tho coal has nearly all been mined, tout had It re mained In-the ground until today the land would easily have been worth $3,000 an acre. Besides, the Pennsyl vania company eventually became the owners of the coal lands surrounding the Searie tract and the situation Is such that tho Havlne shaft" would be veiy desirable to the Pennsylvania company ns a pumping station to keep the water out of Its adjoining work ings. The Pennsylvania officials were obliged to expend for dams, etc., In their workings on the occasion of the late tire In tho Ravlno mine, an amount of money probably equal to that orig inally asked for the entire Senile tract. Pittston Gazette. Penny Gambling Devices Again In Operation In the City. Tho pcnny-ln-thc-stot cigar machines which were removed some three weeks ago by order of the mayor have crept back again nnd arc now In active oper ation In nearly all of tho i.lar stores and barber shops In the city. It Is understood that the mayor has decided that these machines are prac tically harmless nnd do not have tho pernicious effect that tho other ma chines do. The cigar machine contains a sort ot wheel on which are marked tho various cards of a pack and when a penny is dropped In this wheel re volves, producing different combina tions of hands. Certain hands entitle the player to a certain number of cigars, and It Is seldom that a man drops In more than the few loose cents he may happen to have In his pockets. Superintendent Marsden's Successor. Tho exclusive announcement In The Tilbune Wednesday of Superintendent Marsden's retirement from the Buf falo division ot tho Delaware, Lacka wanna and Wchtorn lallroad, was con lli med yesterday by the appointment ot Robert Dudgeon, superintendent of the Minnesota Transfer company. The appointment will take effect to morrow. Superintendent Maisden has been connected with tho company for many years and was on the staff ot the old regime. The Boston and Albany Deal. President Callaway, of the New York Central, speaking ot the recent efforts of opponents to tho proposed lease of the Boston and Albany to the New York Central, said yesterday: "I do not think that tho opposition will succeed in preventing the con summation of the lease; still, there Is no telling what the Massachusetts legislature may do. There arc always political influences at work. If that legislature falls to ratify tho lease of course It falls through, and the re sponsibility must rest in that quarter. The New York Central management ,1s not worrying about tho outcome. Wo have made u liberal offer for the Bos ton and Albany, and tho holders of a largo majority of tho stock of that company recognize the fact." Phila delphia Stockholder.

It Is the same as that be tween cut-glass nnd Imitation. Kven If the material In each Is the same the genuine article has an exquisite beauty that you arc proud of. The other, a tawdry cheapness that you are ashamed of. The genuine takes days to make and dollars to buy, the Imitation Is made In seconds and sold for cents, and each Is a sure Indication of the tase and financial position of its possessor. Apply the above to tailoring and you have the difference between garments made as we make them and the sweat shop abominations that confidence men misrepresent as tailor-made goods.
