One man aud two horses were burneil to death, and several buildings were destroyed. About half past two o'clock John Betts, aged forty-five years, who has been sleeping in the hay loft of a large stable owned by the brewery firm of Furmau & Schmidt in the rear of the St. Elmo Hotel on Shamokin street, went to bed.a tew seconds later flames were discovered issuing from the up per part of the structure and before a general alarm could be sounded the building was like a roaring furnace. Betts was burned to death and the building and contents was destroyed before the fire department could reach the scene. Several citizens experienc ed narrow escapes in an effort to res cue Betts and two valuable horses, which were roasted to death. The flames spread to an adjoining teuemeut house occapied by John Ilopka and family. Mrs. Hopka he came panic stricken and was in the act of jumping from the second story window when she was restrained by her husband. Mr. aud Mrs. Hopka groped their way through the smoke into the street but were almost over come several times. The house was badly damaged. After a hard battle lasting several hours the firemen gamed control and prevented further destruction. One of the buildings tlireateued was the Sara toga Hotel which is run by William Wilson. No insurance was carried by any of the losers. A Bad Scare Some dav you will get a bad scare, when you feel a pain in your bowels, and fear appendicitis.

M MEETING MY RESULT The Standard Electric Light t*oni pany yesterdav took down the foitv foot pole lit tlie nortlie istern conn rof Mill aud Front street* and icplaced it with a tall sixty foot pole. which will he used to elevate the wires on a Ifcvel with the top of the river bridge, vs Inch will he used to carry them over to South Danville. Hur two wires will be strnng over the bridge at present, although, the wooden arms employed, which will rise above tho top <>l the iron work, will contain six pin* mak- I ing it piacticahle to add oilier wire as they may he needed. What is iieerled now is for the Bor ougli to remove the electric light poi nt the southeast corner of the same in tersection of streets. r j he wir.gwall changed by the county,especially -ince I the railing has been replaced, it must I be confessed, helps the appearance of ' things considerably. It is though that ! the Borough Council will yield to puL ; lie opinion and remove or very mucii ! modify the curbing at the foot of the ' approach. Whatever is done, however, i must be accomplished quickly; other wise a delay will occur in putting ! down the pavement. The trolley track is fully conne led. Uontraetor Rogers yesterday began the work of concreting the roadway and unless held up by some delayed action of Council the approach will be com pleted before the last of the week.

MO HOB ON BRIDGE APPROACH There is a very loud protest from the public rtlative to the approach to the Danville end of the river bridge. The County Commissioners and the Bor ougli Council both have jut i-diet ion over the approach and unionuua'> ly their views do not coincide. The (bounty Conim issioner-, who fav - or ptving the roalway from wmgnall t.' w.ugwall, seein to have the support of the public, while the Borough, which to carry out its idea has erected corning for a sidewalk that goes no further than the Front street line, is verv much criticized ami ridiculed. As arrtanged, the appro tch appears very oddly,indeed, and the public can not become reconcilei to it The Bor ough's portion chiefly is condemned by the people, who claim that there is no s oise whatever in the present arrange ment—that the bit of pavement at the lower end of the approach serves no purpose whatever, but will prove only a i obstacle and an annoyance,obliging people to step up and then after a louple of paces to step down again up on tha level of the paved approach. A good many people find no fault with a single curb at the lower or northum end of the approach, it necessary, but they coudetnu the raised walk as plan ued with curbing on the upper side and at tho euds. Nether do people ap prove of the line selected, which, it is uo secret, was adopted to make things conform with a large electric light pole that the Borough does riot want to remove. Such a considera tion, it is held, is unworthy of a pro gressive municipality and it is de manded that the pole bo removed rr gatdless of the trifling cost involved and that the approach be fixed up to present a better appearance. This article is not written in an im pertineut or a meddlesome spirit. The situation is becoming tense. If tilings about the approach are to remain as they are the public want to hear some sound oi reasonable excuse. As it is they say it looks like narrow Handed ness aud child's play. Things just now have reached a pais when an indigna tion meeting is likely to result, and the tip is giyeu Council in the most friendly spirit. Quality vs. Quantity.

It was originally employed in pump ing water when the sewer was being dug. It was soon found that it could he used to an advantage as a steam plow iu breaking up the hard macad am on streets that were to bo paved, there was also work for it to do isi operating the stone crusher when it came io furnishing material for con crete needed iu street paving. Yester day the old engine's sphere of useful ness was enlarged by being made to as sist in digging the sewer extension on Lower Mulberry street. It could not go down into the trench, it is true, lint was used to excellent advantage in cutting through the course of cinder and iron stone which forms the road bed,dragging the plow backwards and forwards over the same spot until a deep furrow was formed, be'ow which it was easy digging. By means of the engine yesterday the sewer took a big sttid" forward,the ground being l>ruk en as far as Pine street.

What is true of muscle is doub ly I rue of the brain, as from it em anates all power to work, to act, to think.

A prominent London Journal print* tin following indictment of tin- habits of many English society women: "A generation lack it WHS among the lower chisses we fount! intemperance rife, an«l then It was the beer of the people which supplied the means; to day we find Intemperance rampant from tin' highest to the lowest, tin* vehicle being alcohol, impure and sim ple, vile concoctions labeled indiffer ently brandy, whisky, gin. Our wearied, jaded votaries of pleasure seek temporary recuperation from these impure sources; then, when their day Is done, they resort to their sulphonal. trionai. morphia or what not in the vain hope of a night's good rest. Another most appalling fact that we have to face is the rapid in crease in the number of women among the inebriate ranks. "What Is the daily life history of a woman in society? Too jaded by self ish indulgences, after a night of mor bid sleep born of some favorite drug she rises to face a day's racing with its concomitant betting. Her break fast inadequate, probably supplement ed by brandy or whisky and soda; luncheon indigestible, savory but un healthful bonnes boiiches, liberal po tations of champagne or, more likely, recourse to familiar brandy or whisky peg; a rush home, further pandering to a morbid appetite, more champagne, later perhaps a dance or many hours devoted to inevitable bridge, again brandy or whisky and soda, then lied, with sulphonal, trionai. morphia or some equally noxious drug. "What wonder that there is no time, no disposition, for domestic duties, no rare for the family life that erst was the backbone of England! Physical and moral degeneration is the inevi table result." CHATEAUBRIAND IN LONDON A I'lclure of the English Capital of a Century Ago. "All the English are mad by nature or by fashion," Chateaubriand writes nonchalantly in the book of his em bassy in London (1821), but he had a very gay time with the same lunatics. We hear of dinners, Almack's and lt> beau monde. "The day was thus dis tributed in Loudon: At 0 o'clock in the morning one hastened to a party of pleasure, consisting <>f a breakfast ill the country; one returned to lunch in London; one changed one's dress to walk in Bond street or Hyde park; one dressed again to dine at 7:30; one dressed again for the opera; at mid night one dressed once more f»r an evening party or rout. What a life of enchantments'. I should a hundred times have preferred the galleys." One smiles and reads on. lie found L uulon full of recollections of Bonaparte. "The people had passed from the vilification of 'Nick' to a stupid enthusiasm. His colossal bust by Cunova decorated the 1 uike of Wellington's staircase." At an evening party at Lord London derry's, the English premier, "I was presented by ills majesty to a severe looking lady seventy-three years old. She was dressed in crape, wore a black veil like a diadem on her white hair and resembled a queen who had abdi cated her throne. She greeted me in a solemn voice with three mangled sen tences from the 'Genie du I'hristian lame;' then she said to me, with no less solemnity, 'I am Mrs. Siddons.' If she had said to me. "I am Lady Macbeth,' I should have believed her."—John J. u'Becket In Catholic Quarterly Review. INCITED MUTINY. An Knislltlt A«flvttlrttl Onof Did Ttifn by Itoyttl 1 ouiiiittiid. Not only did an English admiral once receive instructions to incite his men to mutiny, but lie actually carried his Instructions out. On the eve of the death of James 1., and as a result of l'rince Charles' mar riage to Henrietta Maria, Buckingham agreed to lend the Vanguard and sev en merchantmen to the French. Be fore his promise was fulfilled the Hu guenot rebellion at Rochelle broke out, and by the time Sir John Pennington, who had been putin command, was ready to sail the authorities in England became disagreeably aware that their ships would be used against the French Protestants. Buckingham was conscious of the storm of indignation this would arouse in England. In his perplexity the only solution that occurred to him was to Instruct Pennington to get his men to mutiny. A secret message to this ef fect was sent him through the Earl of Pembroke, and Sir John, who had no Wish to hand the ships over to the French, obeyed and allowed his crew to carry him and his officers back to England. A lEKKIbLt KtNANCt. fihttau .Monk* Who Suffer l.lfv Ini» )>r j»onuien t lu Dark (Vila, Perhaps the most terrible penance Buffered for religious reasons anywhere In the world is that of the monks of Nyeu-de-kyi-buk, as described by Per* rival Landon in"The Opening of Tibet." These monks live In the ordi nary manner during the novitiate; then they go Into cells for a period of six months; then, after an Interval, for three years and ninety three days; la ter for life. And such a cell! "Almost on a level with the ground," says Mr. Laiulon, "there was an opening closed with a lint stone from behind. In front "if this window was a ledge eighteen inches in width, with two basins beside it, one at each end. The abbot was attended by an acolyte who, by his master's or ders, tapped three times sharply on the stone slab. We stood In the little courtyard in tin' sun and watched that wicket with cold apprehension. I think, 011 the whole, it was the most uncanny thing I saw In all Tibet. Aft er half a minute's pause the stone mov ed or tried to move, but it came to rest again. Then very slowly and uncer tainly it was pushed back, and a black chasm was revealed. There was again a pause of thirty seconds, during which Imagination ran riot, but I do not think that any other thing could have been as Intensely pathetic as that we actu ally saw. "A hand, mutHed In a tightly wound piece of dirty cloth, for all the world like a stump of an arm, was painfully thrust up, and very weakly It felt along the -dab. After a fruitless fum bling the hand slowly quivered back again into (lie darkness. A few mo ments later there was again an inef fectual effort, and then the stone slab moved noiselessly across the opening "Once a day water and an unleas ened cake of flour is placed for the prisoner upon that slab, the signal Is given, and lie may take It In. Ills diversion Is over for the day, and In the darkness of his ceil, where night and day moon, sunset and the dawn are all alike, he poor soul!-had thought that another day of his lung penance was over." I A MLNTAL PUZZLE. i Doul»!»- i oiiMi'ioiiNiicNH Uevelopfd by an Attu«*k of lllii«*mn. Speaking of Instances of double con sciousness, Mental Science note-- the follow ing case: The patient was a girl, twenty-two years of age. She suffered from some affection that may have been menin gitis, but this is not known positively. She then developed aeute maniaeal ex citation. During this illness the pa | tient presented some remarkable | changes of personality such as are teen in hysteria. The author does not j term tin- curious manifestations by tliis name, but some nine or more different varieties of personality . manifested by the patient that are ■ quite interesting. Thus ii,.- patient had spells of blindness, deafness, paralysis, j etc. The most interesting of these ; manifestations, because the least i ;i-\ i to explain, was the patient':- ability to draw the full figure of a nurse, etc., during her spell of blindness. To con | vince himself that this was the actual case the author held a book between the patient's eyes and the sheet of I paper on which >h<- was drawing nr put his hands before her eyes while she was drawing without in any way inter fering with her drawing. Her sense of , touch was highly sensitive during that . period; she could detect a line drawn [ across her drawing paper, dates writ ten at the top of her drawing paper, merely by touching the paper where the intruding lines had been drawn. During her normal state the patient could never draw either before or after : her illness. THE JUICY GRAPE. If* Hl»tor> I<« \V«I1 Mich ti s Old un That of Man. The history of the grape is almost a;j old as that of man. Growing in Us highest perfection in Syria and Persia, Its luscious fruit recommended it to the especial care of the patriarchal tillers of the soil, and vineyards were exten sively planted long before orchards or collections of other fruit trees were at all common. The grape came originally from Per sia. From the latter country as civili zation advanced westward this fruit accompanied It—first to Egypt, then to Greece, Sicily, Italy, Spain, France and then to < Ireat Britain, to which latter country the Romans carried it 200 years after < 'hrist. To America the seeds and plants of the European varieties were brought by emigrants and colonists the first fifty years after its settlement. There are a vast number of varieties of grapes, but there are really only about a dozen varieties good for the table. California produces the Tokay, Muscat, Black Prince, Malaga, etc., while the eastern stales produce such varieties as the Concord, Catawba, Ni agara, Delaware, Black Hamburg and Isabella.—New England Grocer. Advice About Ekk*. A writer in the Delineator gives some sensible advice about eggs. There is a general impression that eggs, acknowl edged to be a complete food, may be safely eaten on all occasions. On the contrary, as the writer alluded to points out, invalids and young children should never be given eggs unless they are very fresh. Persons suffering from biliousness, gastritis and several other troubles find difficulty In lighting even fresh eggs. Some physicians declare that the slightest tendency toward rheumatism makes eggs undesirable. The white of eggs whipped to a froth with a little water is a good thing to give fever patients, as a rule, but the physician should lie consulted before even this Is given to a sick person. Elevated Hivers. The most elevated river iu the world Is tli3 Desaguadero. in Bolivia. It is of a considerable depth, and its whole length, from the village Desaguadero, at the south extremity of Titicaca, to the north end of the lake Aullagas, Is about IjsO ndles. The average eleva tion of the valley or tableland of Desa guadero above the level of the sea is about 13,000 feet. The river whose source lies highest is the Indus, which rises on the north of the Kailas Parbat mountain. In Tibet. 22,000 fevt above sea level. A FAMOUS STAR GROUP. The t'ovintellatlovi Orion In LeKfnd and Literature. The constellation Orion is mentioned in the literature of all ages. In Egypt It represented Ilorus, the young or ris ing sun, In a boat surmounted by stars, closely followed by Slrius, which was shown as a cow. It has also been found sculptured on the walls of Thebes 5,000 years ago. And on the men of that early time it shone down from the same position and with thy same brightness as It does on us today, a striking example of the unchange ableuess of the heavens. From the days of the early Hindoos to the present the constellation has for some reason borne always a stormy character. Allusions to Its direful Influ ence are found everywhere amoug the classic writers, Thus Milton wrote: When with fierce winds Orion arrived Hath vexed the Red sea coast. The loss of the Roman squadron In the first l'unlc war was ascribed to the fleets having sailed Just after the ris ing of i >rion. The group has also been employed as a calendar slgu, Its morn ing rising indicating the beginning of summer. Its midnight rising the season of grape gathering and its early even- j lug rising the arrival of winter, with j its attendant storms. In recent times i the group has always represented a ; great hunter or warrior. Its present title came into Greek astronomy from the Euphrates and originally signified the light of heaven. Henry \ 111. and I'll <1 il I n BIulT King Hal, otherwise Henry VIII. of England, was exceedingly fond of puddings. At one time he gave a certain Mistress Cornwallis a house in Aldgate for herself and her heirs for ever "in reward of fine puddings." In King Henry VIII.'s private accounts occur again and again entries of his rewards to different housewives for bringing him puddings. A typical in- ' stance runs thus: "Item. The same j day paid to the wife that made tlie j king podings at Hampton corte, \ is. i vlijd." This would be about $1.75. but Its value was much greater when the entry was made, lhis love for "flue puddinjjs" explains much in the fa miliar rotund ligure of King Hal. \ Matter «112 Gentler.

Here is an explanation of the old horseshoe superstition: St. Duustau was a skilled farrier. One day while at w >rk in his forge the devil entered in disguise and requested Duustau to shoe his "single hoof." The saint, al though he recognized his malign cus tomer, acceded, but caused him so much pain during the operation that Satan begged him to desist. This St. Duustau did, but only after he had made the evil one promise that uelther he nor any of the lesser evil spirits, his servants, would ever molest the in mates of a house where the horseshoe was displayed. A Ser\il«» limine of Lord*. When King Henry VIII.s name was spoken in his presence In the house of lords every peer prostrated himself with Asiatic servility. An entry iu thw records of the house gives the suo stauce of a speech delivered by the chancellor on Jan. 10, 1541, in which the king's goodness and wisdom are extolled, and it tells us that whenever !
