NEW TELEGRAPH OFFICE.-SOIRO of our
prominent business men have made arrangements
with the Western Union Telegraph Company to
have an office in connection with the Lehigh Val
ley Telegraph office, in the same building with
he South Bethlehem Saving's Bank near the de
pot. Heretofore our citizens were taxed fifteen
cents for the delivery of dispatches from Bethle
hem, and by the establishment of this office, dis
patches will be delivared free of charge to any
part of South Bethlehem—Times.
To BE CLEARED OUT.—PVC understand that
t is the intention of the new City Councils to put
end to the sidewalk green-groceries and com
p 1
persons whowish to engage in this trade either
to rent stores or go Into the market house. This
movement has been brought about by over-zealous
tradesmen who, when given an Inch of the side
walk took an ell, much to the inconvenience of
pedestrians. The idea Is a significant one and
points to the prospect of having a good market lu
Allentown, as they have In more advanced cities,
where housekeepers can purchase nearly every
thing in the eatable line, and where close compe
ition brings prices within the bounds 'of a poor
man's purse.
ST. PATRICK'S DAY.—The day has been
remarkable for the damp, disagreeable state of

played from the office of our late Congressman
were greeted with proper respect and will no doubt
have a telling effect In future elections. At Cats
auqua, we understand, the ceremonies were va !
rled with a little bit of a fight. The procession
here was conspicuous for the juvenile rag, tag and
hob-tall which accompanied it.
After writing the above a Fenian organization
from the Sixth Ward, preceded by the City Cornet
Band, passed down Hamilton street. They made
• very creditable appearance.

organise the company.
A New STOPEFIER.—The now antesthelic

to be as effective as chloroform, but without the
disagreeable character of that agent; the only
difficulty is that it will be too expensive for com

COUNTY TREASURER. —A proposition in be
fore the Pennsylvania Legislature to extend the
term of office of county treasurers to three years.
As the other county offices are held for three
years, we think It would be well 'to extend the
treasurership to correspond, so that all the prin
cipal county officers could be elected at the same
time. ThIS we think would promote harmony,
and would be no injury to any public Interest.
A FATAL LIFT.—A daughter of Mr. David

day morning, when mortification set In, causing
her death in about three hours.
THE COAL STRIKE.—It is rumored that the
miners in the Bituminous coal regions will suspend
work in a few days. The Lehigh Valley and
other railroads are now using bituminous coal.
Should these miners suspend the railroads would
be deprived of their supply, and to save themselves
would bo forced to compromise and lower their
tolls, so that operators who desire might again
resume work on the old basis.
THE L. & S. RAILROAD.—It is reported that
the Central Railroad of New Jersey, which has
leased the Lehigh and Susquehanna railroad, in

AstosnmEnre.—Thursday evening of this
week a grand vocal and Instrumental concert will
he given in the Court House. A celebrated female
vocalist, of Philadelphia, has been engaged, and
the admirers of Mr. Conly, who has a host of
friends in Allentown, will be gratified to know
that they will have an opportunity to hear him so
soon again. Prof. John Romig, who in scarcely
surpassed as a solo violinist, will also appear.
James L. Brooks, now .resident at Reading, who
performs such wonderful music on the English
concertina, will be present. Those who have
heard him before and have been fascinated with
his music will be gratified to hear of this an
nouncement. One of our most popular home
artists, Mr. Alfred Ettinger, will preside at the
piano. During the evening, T. F. Emmens, Pro
fessor of Elocution, will read The Death of Joe,
selection from Dickens; and a scene from Much
Ado about Nothing.
Tnw Comma MAN.—While our fine girls
are bemoaning the lack of young men, and the
scarcity of beaux who are marriageable and who
mean marriage, there is a class of young men
whom they do not recognize at all, yet will fur
nish to the next generation Its men of enterprise,
of power, of position and of wealth. It is not the
eons of the rich, says Holland, who will as a rule,
remain rich. The sons of the poor will got rich ;
and there are to-day, drudging In offices, counting
rooms, and manufacturing establishments of all
kinds, the men who In twenty-five years will con
trol the nation socially, politically, and financially.
Every man of them means to be married; they
as a rule, make excellent husbands; they
are all at work trying to win success. They are
men who would be easily improved by recognition,
and by bringing them Into good, Intelligent soci
ety ; yet they are as little noticed as if they were
so many dogs. Excellent young men from the
country go into the city and live for years with
out any society, and are regarded by the fashion- .
able young women with indifference or contempt;
but these young mon have a hold upon the future
and when their success Is known, In whatever
field or enterprise it may be, the fashionable world
will be glad to receive them as belonging to their
own number. We regret to say, that as a rule,
the young men for whom a position has been won
by virtuous and sympathizing fathers amount to
but little In the world, and rejoice to sny that com
panions taken from those who have their fortunes
to "'almond their positions to win, are those to
whom a well-broil woman can generally with safety
intraet leer liondoris and LPrielf.

all who knew him. Siczed with that fell destroyer,
consumption, he struggled bravely against it until
at length it closed its withering hand upon him,
and he, like a tender plant, must droop and die.

pride of manhood, he has been cut off for some
wise purpose by him who has forgotten none, but

WHY THE SCHUYLKILL MINERS Do NOT
Wonx.—Dally we are more convinced that two
thirds if not three-fourths of the miners and la
borers not only in this region. but In the Lehigh,
would go to work If they dared. But the lerrolem
which prevails, Induced and upheld by some of
the leaders, is of such a character that the men
are forced against their wishes to remain Idle at a
loss to themselves of hundreds of thousands of
dollars, and to the general business of the region to
an equal amount. It would be a positive benefit to
all classes, and to none more than the miners and
laborers themselves, If these mischief-making'
lenders who subserve their own selfish purposes,
In all their nets, were driven front the county.
The suffering and deprivation which prevail, are
caused by them, and they will oppress and starve
their victims Just as Ithig as they dare, and the
oppressed submit. But the day of retribution will
come, wisest the men who are forced Into tueasures
they do not approve, will be Independent, and will
visit upon these leaders a punishment which may
be inadequate to the suffering and losses they have
caused, but which will be fully merited.—Pofls

DARING ROBBERY—ESCAPE. OF THE BOB

o'clock, Mr. Hugh during his usual rounds

and left the home and proceeded to the mill to

wife heard a man's voice, In the room adjoining
where she slept, asking for something to eat.
Thinking It was her husband, bile replied that
breakfast would soon be ready. want money,"
demanded the now somewhat changed voice, and
Mrs. Burns discovered that a stranger was In the
house. Mrs. Burns very calmly replied that she
had no money in the house. The man retorted by
saying that be Mtn bent on having .Money, and
would have It. Mrs. Burns replied that she would
call her husband. " Wasn't that your husband
who wont out•a few minutes ago'" asked the man.
She replied, with great composure and presence of
mind, "It was ;but there le another man up stairs,
and I will call him." The man put his hand In.
hie pocket, and threatened If she spoke another
word IM would blow he' brains out. lie then
boldly proceeded to the bureau, which stands Ina
corner of the room, and searched all the drawers
which were unlocked. Finding two private draw
ers locked, be broke them open, grabbed a pocket,
book containing $42.50, and Immediately de
camped. Mrs. Burns displayed great courage In
endeavoring to defeat the plans of the robber,
which unfortunately could not be done, nestle was

for, and, on his return, a search was Immediately
Instituted, but uo tracks of the robber could be

ing around about a New Orleans printer who de
clined to go out and drink when asked, but placed
the money he would have spent had be gone out
with the boys, In a saving bank, and how in Are
years it amounted to untold millions. Then he
didn't have any wife.
We tried that once for a year, quitting smoking,
and placing the money that would have been used
In a bureau drawer. One day wo wanted to go
out with the boys, and went for the money, and It
was gone, and in Its place was some new dress

NEW SABBATH SCHOOL 111)0. --The exten
sive alterations In the basement of the English
Reformed Church are rapidly approaching coin
pletion, anti one now can have an opportunity to
Judge of the extent and character of the itnpOve
ment. Tile rooms will be well lighted in the day
time front large windows on either side of the
building. The main room is large, airy and
cheerful, and the wood work and furniture will
be about the finest Mille city. Two rooms adjoin
this in the rear and can be thrown open and made
a part of the main room by means of sliding doors.
One of tile smaller rooms will be used by the Bible
class. The seats will have light, comfortable,
open backs, which will be very pleasant, especially
In Summer time. It. Is impossible to say exactly
when tile rooms will be ready for occupancy, but
when they are the children and teachers will
enter their;new quarters with the eheerfulest feel
ings. and we believe that the usefulness of the
Sabbath school. will be very materially Increased
through the generous provision that has been
mule by tile congregation for the comfort and
emycnienee of those who attend. During the
wholst time that work has been going on at this
,chore's no one has appeared so much Interested

BOILER EXPLOSION—AN ENGINEER KILLED
—A Horse PARTIALLY DEMOLISIIRD
CIIILDHEN FATALLY AND Two OTHERS SLIGHTLY
liqJunen.—The Misers' Journal gives the (Mow
ing particulars of the explosion at Ashlsud :
About half past six o'clock Thursday moralng N
Boller explosion occurred at the breaker of I:. Bast
& Co., at Ashland, the result of which was the
killing,of Mark Daniels, the partial dem.,:ition of
a house near by, In which were five chiLhen of a
man twined Connyngham, three - of whom were
fatally and two very setlonsly. Mark
Daniels, the engineer at the slope, hal just been
relieved by his batty, when he went down to the
breaker engine house to tell McCloud, the engi
ne, r, that one of the boilers was leaking. Daniels
then got on top to examine the holler , When he told
McConncl to Mist the engine.. Mee. proceeded to
do so, and as ho laid hold of the starting bar, the
holler exploded. Daniels was buricd, in the scald
ing, burning debris, and It required some time for
six men to rescue him from the terrible position in
which he was suffering the most excruciating tor
lure and slowly burning to death. Through the
almost superhuman efforts of those men he was
rescued, but only to die a few hours Inter, after
suffering such agonies as beggars description.
Mr. Connyngha in's children were In bed about
the time of the explosion. Some of the flying
Missiles struck the house, partially demolishing
It and piling the rains upon the children. Three
of them.were so seriously Injured that their re
covery Is despaired of, while two more of them
Were so fortunate as to escape with bat slight in
jury. Mr. Daniels was n young married man,
having no chlldrun, and was employed as one of
the engineers of the slope. Ho was a man of
steady and exenndary habits, , highly
respected by
all who knew him, and his untimely death will be
regretted by a 1 irge number of relatives and
friends. During the war he served his country
faithfully In the capacity of a Union soldier In ono
of the country companies, and has been
one of the active members of Joe Hooker Post; d.
A. it; at AshiaMi, by'every member of which his.
fate will be deeply mourned.
We were unable to ascertain the cause of the
explosion as, according to all necountai that point
Is still among the mysteries and remains for
future dovelnpment.

THE SCHOOL TEACHERS' ENTERPRISE.—At
a meeting of the School Teachers of the City of
Allentown, held In the Fifth Ward School House,
on Saturday afternoon, It was moved and sec
onded that the teachers, defray the expenses of R.
K. Bachrle, Esq., City Salmi intendent, for a week,
to visit Boston and Inspect the system of education
adopted at the Hub. We believe, on account of
a number of teachers not being present, the mo
tion was not acted upon. We hope at the next
meeting there will boa full attendance of Mitchel s
and that the subject may be brought up again.
The movement le a good one and reflects great
credit upon the teachers, into labor hard to make
our schools unsurpassed by any lu the country.
Wedo not know In what particular way the schools
Of Boston excel our own, but a visit to that city
and a thorough Inspection of the working of Its
school system may suggest some new idea of im
portance and cannot fall to result to the good of ;
our _educational system. If the school teachers
conelude to send Mr.. Buerhlc on this mission, we
suggest that our Controllers pay' him a sufficient
sum to enable him to spend a week also, for the
same purpose, in New York.

Our amiable Sheriff, n•hose modesty and bashful

Sheriff looked Brat at one thee in. the other. It
was all news to that family. A friend sitting in

nun FUNERAL
The tonere! or our lamented leader, John IL
Oliver, took place Tuesday afternoon froin his late
residence on Fifth street above Hamilton, and
was attended by a vast concourse of our citizens,
the Knights Templar, Barger Lodge , A. Y. M.,
members of the Masonic fraternity front Easton
and Bethlehem, the members of the Bar from Le
high and Northampton counties, and the Allen
Rifles. The Allentown Cornet Band accompanied
the Knights Templar, and played a beautiful and
solemn dirge as the remains were borne to the
grave.
The beautiful and Impressive futMral services of
the Reformed Church were held at the house by
Rev. S. G. Wagner, assisted by Revs. Mr. Strait
burger and A. Dubbs. The Eminent Commander,
with the pall-bearers, then entered the room and
laid upon the coffin the hat, sword and baldric,
the pall-bearers formed the arch of steel above
the coffin, and then silently returned swords and
carried the coffin to the hearse, amid the low
mumbling of the muffled drums. The procession
proceeded to the cemetery In the following order:

Upon entering the Cemetery the procession
opened ranks, the Commandery with the corpse
and Immediate friends passed through, when the
line closed in and followed. The ceremonies
were those adopted by the Grand Encampment of
the Knights Templar of the United States, and
were read by Rev. Alfred Dobbs and Eminent
Commander E.G. Martin In an impressive manner,
and the solemnity and beauty of the service was
much remarked upon by those who could get near
enough to be able to understand its nature.
Thousands of people lined the streets through
which the funeial cortege passed and large crowds
had preceded the procession to the Cemetery, and
as the vast concourse gathered around the Knights
a dead silence prevailed broken only by the deep
voices of the Chaplain and the Eminent Com
mander and the responses of the Knights, and
formed a solemn and impressive scone which will
never be forgotten by those present. The beauti
ful dirges so perfectly played by the Allentown
Cornet Band did great honor to that organization
and ridded much to the solemnity of the occasion.
The 'Knights Templar made a line turnout and
were much admired,especially those from Easton,
who were fully equipped with uniform coats and
chapeaus, though it was evident from their march
ing that they had not been drilled so well as the
mem hers of the Alien Commandery.

SUNDA': NIoIIT BY GAB LIOUT.—Our train
thoroughfare on a Sunday night is 'so crowded
with people that a stranger descending from a
balloon into the street would imagine himself In
the heart of a great city. Broadway le seldom
more crowded, and unless one falls Into the dense
1 1 ranks going up or down, and regulates his pace to
the raze of the moving throngs, pedestrianism Is
irritating and difficult. What the cause of this
great outpouring of the people . is It would bo diffi
cult to ascertain •wlthout some labor. If these
numberless people were simply on their way to
and from church, we should conclude that our
people were more devout than any other In our
country, but sic are afraid that Sunday night is
regarded more as a holiday than us an occasion
for religious observance. On the corners, and at
favorable Intervals between squares, squads of
young men post themselves and dutiously main
tain their position of sentries until'relleved by the
neat guard. Allentown cannot complain of not
being well guarded, for these young men defy all
Inclement weather, and can be found at their posts
regularly and promptly. It appears to bo their
Mission in life. If It Is they arc fulfilling It a
manner which might be Imitated with profit by
persons in other callings. Some of the churches,
in the estimation of these young men, come In for
a share of their protection, and the worshipers
Within must be filled with feelings of security
when they know' that no harm can come to them
through the phalanx of human flesh which guards
their door without.
After church the throng on Hamilton street be
comes denser, and Is more generally made up of
016 weaker sex. It Is really astonishing what a
difficulty some of the young ladles experience In
getting to their homes. eonio of the up-town
ladles who attend up-town churches appear to ho
so bewildered after service that they lose their
reckoning and go down town, and never discover
their mistake until they get to Fifth street, when
they cross to the opposite side and go np again.
Down-town ladies who attend down-town churches
are, in some instances, afflicted with a similar un
certainty, but their course is reversed, and some
of the ladies who live neither down-town nor up
town appear to be so overcome that it seems as
though they would never be able to find the home
ward track. Some onesaid that the peopleprome
nude intentionally with the pirrpose of shaklig of
the effects of the sermons, but whatever the object
It would be pleasant to sea Hamilton street ns full
of pronienaders at all times and as lively as It Is
on Sunday night.
IT has 'become a well known fact in this
community that the firm of Schreiber Bros., next
to the First National Bank, not only sell at the
lowest rates, but also allow no one to excel them
In the quality of their goods. They have had a
long experience In the business, and have made It
their study to please the public. Their stock is
very full, and they declare they will not be under
sold by any house in the city. A bleached muslin,
yard wide, at 12. 1 ,4 cents per yard, equal to muslin
