At a meeting held at Wilkesbarre

, The report conies from Laquin
; that a teamster named Charles Bren
nan, met with a serious accident
\ while bringing a trail of logs down
} i the mountain. The logs getting the
1 start of him, he was caught between

i of both legs, the right leg being so

The establishing of a separate
school for colored children with an
I
instructor of their own race, at
Wiiliainsport, is causing intense
I feeling toward the white popula
' tion of that city. However, some
, of the more sensible of the colored
i citizens foresee the benefits that
will be derived by their children
in a school set apart for their own
race, and commend the school
board on their action.
News from Alaska is cheerful. In
the Taunaua Itiver valley wages for
unskilled labor run from So 00 to *7
per day and hoard. Men at odd jobs
easily get a dollar an hour. Skilled
labor is paid proportionately higher.
A man who i* willing to work and
endure the hardships of the country
find no troudle in rolling up $lO a
week and his board. Hut, before
you go, investigate these hardships.
Falling a dirtanee of fifty feet and
escaping with slight injuries was the
experience of Christian Hummel,
while engaged in painting one of the
stacks at the car foundry, at Ucr
wiek. Hummel was drawing lilni
*elf to the top of a stack and a hook
l>ull"d out, precipitating him to the
ground. An ugly gash in the he.ul.
where he struck the brick foundation
of the stack, was apparently the only
injury received.
Fnu.iual Justice was meted out to
three hoys in the Elmira police court
last Friday for disturbing the Sun
day services at one of the city
churches by throwing snowballs into
the church. Ity arrangement of the
attorneys for both sides, the boys,
aged 13, I I and Hi were soundly
1 logged by their parents before the
attorneys and interested church peo
ple. Then the complaints in the
ease were withdrawn.
The golden rule plan for dispens
ing justice has been adopted by
Judge Austin, of the police court of
foledo. Over the bench he has
placed the motto, "I)o unto others as
you would have others do unto you.'
He has also placed appropriate and
inspiring mottoes on the wall of the
court room, his idea being that Uie.se
will lutve a quieting influence ou the
prisoners, attorneys and jurors.
The advantage of hot water taken
inwardly is well known, but not]
every one knows that it has been j
lull lid valuable in fighting the grip. I
A famous doctor, noted for the j
-peetiv cure of his grip patients, says !
that he attributes his success to tliej
fact that he always puts his patients j
to bed at the tirst sign of the disease j
and makes them drink quantities of
hot water. This should be taken at
intervals of every two hours, and as
hot as can bt drunk without burning
the tongue and throat.
