Collins, a civil engineer of this city, has been delegated by John Fulton. who is representing a syndicate of capitalits, to survey 35,000 acres of coal land in Jenner, Quemahoning and Lincoln townships, Somerset county. A corps of six surveyors will be put to work this week on the tract, which is about eight miles from the railroad. The work is expected to be finished in two weeks.—Johnstown Democrat. A number of gentlemen who arrived in Berlin, yesterday, in a private car of the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad, are being shown about the country and through the coal mines by some of our business men. An important coal land deal may result from the coming of the visitors, to be followed by interesting developments in the way of mining and railway building operations. The strangers will probably stay the best part of to-day.— Berlin Record. One day last week while Peter Yost, a farmer living a few miles south of Grantsville, was tearing down an old stable, the roof suddenly fell in. and Mr. Yost was struck on the head and almost killed. A nephew of his, a son of Mr. John Baker, who lives near by, was also slightly injured. Mr. Yost was knocked into insensibility, and for he was believed to be dead. However, he regained consciousness, and at last report was rapidly recover- ing. Rabbit hunters in land will have plenty to do next fall, as Jacob A.

Reed A destructive forest fire was started near Meadow run, Monday afternoon, by some careless or malicious person. The flames swept rapidly over a tract of timber owned by Hon. B. Weliley, of Confluence, and also over the old Stutzman tract now owned by Mr. P. 8 Hay. Considerable damage was done to timber and rail fences, but much greater damage would have been wrought if people hadn’t fought the flames as diligently as they did during the greater part of Monday night. J. Q. Hood, Justice ot the Peace, Crosby, Mis makes the following statement: “1 can certify that One Minute Cough Cure will do all that is claimed for it. My wife could not get her breath and the first dose of it re- lieved her. It has alsoebenefited my whole family.” It acts immediately and cures coughs, colds, croup, grippe, bronehitis, and all throat and lung troubles. Sold by medicine dealers.

Respectfully, JOHN W. RINGLER, SALISBURY, PA LING J. Harry Fritz, of Somerset, has pur- chased the Minnich farm, in Perry county, adjoining the Tressler Orphans’ Home, Loysville, at $3,500, and has pre- sented it to the Ilome. The Home will get full possession of the farm April 1, 1901, with the privilege of planting three acres of corn immediately and of planting crops in the fall. Mr. Fritz has already contributed $1.000 to the new memorial chapel which will be dedicated June 20th, and ground will be broken next week for a dormitory to cost $7,000, which will be built for the Home by Mr. Fritz. Last week was made to break the strike now onin the George's Creek mining region. A hundred or more men attempted to go to work, but most of them were persuaded to turn back again, as an overwhelming major- ity of the miners of that region are in favor of prolonging the strike until their demands are complied with, All the collieries are at a standstill, and it is said that the Creek miners are more firm in their demands than ever. This paper believes that the Creek miners are in the right, and we hope to see them win. an attempt Quite a disastrous wreck occurred-on the Salisbury railroad, Monday after- noon. An engine was coming up the branch with a large number of coal cars ahead, and when about half way between John Wright's crossing and the West Salisbury railroad bridge, the front car struck a cow, which caused eight ears to leave the track. Only one of the train crew was injured, and he only slightly; but the derailed cars and the badly mangled remains of the cow presented an ugly scene to behold. The Killed belonged to Mrs. J. W. Beachy, we are informed. Cow Representative Thropp entertained a party of distinguished guests at dinner on Monday. Those present were: Post- master Generel Smith, Senator Bate, Tennessee, Senator Foraker, Assistant Secretary of War Meiklejohn, Repre- sentatives Cannon, Boutell and Graff, Illinois, Grosvenor and Dick, of Ohio, of Vermont, Richardson, of Ten- nessee—the Democratic leader—Page Morris, of Minnesota, Moody, of Massa- chuset tz, Benton, of Misouri, Dinsmore of Arkansas, Latimere, of South Caro- lina, Levy, of New York, Littlefield, of Maine and MeAleer, of Pennsylvania. Grout, — Washington Star. .arge delegations of George’s Creek miners have been arriving in our town during the week. Many of them are looking for work here, and some of them are securing it. We like to see men obtain employment when in need of it, but we hope the coal operators of the Elk Lick region will not hire too many George’s Creek miners, thereby reducing the earnings of our own peo- ple. The Creek men are still out for 60 cents per ton, and it is not reason- able to believe that they will remain here and work at the 55-cent rate after the strike is ended in the Creek re- more to be feared than gion. The fact is it looks a little in- | consistent for the Creek men to come here and work at a lower price than | they are willing to work for at home, A Splendid Showin Of New Spring Styles In Men's, Boys’ And Children’s Wear!

SCENE IN A PCRTUGCAL WINERY, In the mountains, at the Quinto do Sexio, Portugal, a famous Port Wine district where the custom of treading the grapes for Port Wine is still in vogue. From ten to a dozen men or women for each gang in turn continue the treading, day and night, during the four or five weeks vintage. Some of the treading vats are large encugh for three scparate rows of ten men each, who with their white breeches well tucked up, their arms on each other’s shoulders, raise and tread their fect alternately, with song and shouts to keep the lazier ones up to the work, and a band with string instruments enlivens the hours. Ww ; Speer, of New Jersey, Uses Rollers a of EL It is from this district the vines were imported over forty years ago that now fill the vineyards of the Speer Wine Co., at Passaic. At Passaicthe same kind of grapes are crushed between large rol- lers of rubber, revolved by steam. This is the only place in this country where the real genuine Port Wine is made from the Oporto grape—and they are grown right in SrEER'S VINEYARDS. These vineyards extend over }4 of a mile along one of the Main avenues of Passaic, and comprise fifty six acres. The soil being rich in iron makes the wine most valuable for Medical use. _, Wk. SPEER'S WINES LER Are well known to be of the highest character, the oldest aiid most refined Wines in America, equal if not superior to any wines in the world. They consist of Port, Sherry, Burgundy, Claret, Sauternec Wines, and % % % Climax Brandy. Mr. Speer has some Wine in his cellars that he made overthir ty cight years ago. All of Speer's Wines and Brandy are very old, rich, well rounded, soft and delicate.
