POLITICAL POINTS.
Mahanoy City expects to organize a Dem

From now on county politics will com
mence to sizzlo.
"Joo" Nlchtor, of Pottsvillo, wants to
try his hand at tho Poor Directorship this
yoar again,
Tho Chronicle Intimatos that Hon.
Charles N. B.umm will bo a candidate for
Congrossman-at-Largo next year.
Ex-Poor Director George Heffner will
bo n candidato boforo tho Republican
county convention for his old position.
Tho candidacy of John J. Coyle, of
Mahanoy City, for delegate to tho Consti
tutional Convention, moots with much en
couragement. Mr. Coylo is a good Repub
lican and a very popular gentloman.
Ilore is a good ticket, sugg- sted by a
town Democrat, who thinks it can win
without half trying perhaps : Judge,
John A. Nash, Esq., Pottsville; Sheriff,
Job Wool, Pottsviliej Director of the Poor,
Josoph Nichtor; Jury Commissioner, Jere
miah Seitzinger, Pottsville.
Tho announcement thst our townsman,
'Squire Cbarlo3 O. Palmor,' would likely
bo a candidate for Sheriff on tho Repub
lican ticket, has caused considerable un
easiness in Eome circloi. We admit that
he would make a formllablo opponent to
any of those named by the Domocrats.

VOYAGE OF LIFE,"
SEVENTH SERMON ON THE SUB
JECT IN THE M. E. OHUROH.
HE SHAW MINING MACHINE.
Mine Inspector Stoln Has Ono In
His Ofllco "What Becomes of
tho Garbago? An Exciting
Qamo of Base Ball.
Tho Foventh of tho ecrios of eormons on
the "Voyago of Life" was dolivored last
night in tho M. E. church. The toxt was
from Prov. 13-20 : ''lie that walkoth with
wise men shall bo wiso, but a companion of
fools shall be destroyed." Tho subject was
Tho Crew." An account was given of
tho number of men required to navigalo
our large steamships and tho duties they
aro required to perform. Tho dut 03 and
responsibilities of tho captain and his males
wero explained. Then came tho engineers
and firemen, of which thoro aro about two
hundred. Over fifty furnaces noed to bo
fed with coal at tho rate of throo hundred
tons a day. The flro rooms look more like
tho accounts of tho bottomless pit than any
thing else ho had seen. It is a shame that
bettor provision is not mado for the comfort
of tho firemen, lie had seen them draeged
moro dead than alive from thoir quarters.
Then thoro are the stewards, cooks, otc.,
who have charge of tho culinary and sani
tary arrangements. They numbor over a
hundrod, so that the whole crew musters a
little army of about four hundrod.
As the safety of tho ship and welfaro of
the" passengers depend upon tho skill and
care of tho crow, so tho wolfaro of the
mariners on tho pea of life depends much
upon tho charactor of thoir social crew
their companions. "Tho companions of
fools shall be dostroyed." Men aro judged
by tho company thoy keep, and very justly
so. They aro no hotter than their compan
ions, or thoy would not associate with them.
Wo cannot prevent birds uying ovor our
heads, but we can prevent thorn from build
ing their nests in our hair. So while wo
cannot avoid contact, altogether, with evil
men we can refuse to receive thorn into our
boBom. Wo need to guard our reputation
as well as our charactor, or our usefulness is
at an end. AVo should, therefore, avoid
thoso of questionable or unsavory reputa-
tion. Tho condition of tho wives of,
irreverent, profane, lecherous and drunken
men was doscribod and att3ntion callod to
tho fact that multitudes of marriageable
girls aro being led to such a slaughter be
cause they wink at lax morals and easy
virtue and tippling habits in tho young
men from whom they rccoivo attentions.
Cajsar's wifo must bo immaculate or suffer
eternal ostracism but Ctosar himself may be
spoltod all ovor with floshly lusts and social
pastiness and be coddlod ior it. No young
woman has any guarantee that eho will
not become a drunkard's wife unljss she
demands as tho price of her oarlicst friend
ship total aUtinence from all that can
intoxicate. The Eermon, which occupied an
hour in delivery, was listened to with the
closest attontion by a crowded house. The
subject noxt Sunday night will bo "The
Pastimes."
Machine Received.
Mine Inspector Stein has roceivod ono of
tho Shaw mi no machines, used for detect
ing and measuring gas in air currants,
which he has put up in his office for experi
menting and inspection. Tho machine is
costly, tho price being $500. It is very
much liko a pair of delicate scales and is
covered by a glass ease 18 inches high by 2
feet square. It differs from ordinary Ecales
in that it measures tho quantity instead of
weighing it. Tho machine is made of brats
and composition and will measure to the
ono thousandth part of an Inch. It is not
to bo taken into the mines. It romains in
tho office of tho mino inspootor. This
official gathers tho gas by means of rubber
bags, which havo a pnmping apparatus at
tached. This can bo pushed up in tho holo
where tho gas is the lightest and the bag
illlod. Tho idea of tho machine's tests is to
find out how near .to tho explosive point tho
nir current is charged with gas.

Pennsylvania Railroad's Doublo
Lines to Atlantic City.
Tho Pennsylvania Railroad's twin linos
to Atlantic City tho West Jersey and
Camdon nnd Atlantic Railroads now
operated as a doublo track line, and famed
far and wide as the Pennsylvania's Duublo
Linos to tho Sea, havo long been known as
tho old and reliablo route to Atlantic City.
Tho Camden nud Atlantic Railroad was
tho pionoor, and for a long tinio tho only
route, to what has now beeomo ono of tho
most popular and attractivo seaside citios of
iho world. Many Phlladelphinus woll re
member how in tho earlier years of tho
first railroad thoy traveled slowly and in
inforiorcars t Atlantic City, when ono or
two trains a day more than sufficed to nc
commodato the entiro volume of traffic,
and many oi them may also recall tho III
siiccess of the railroad venture, which was
so pronounced, that at a meeting of tho di
rectors tho proposition to take up tbo rails
and sell thorn for scrap iron was gravely
disuised. Wiser counsel prevallod, how
over, and from this humblo origin sprung
what is to day the most completo and best
appointed systom of railway loading to any
seaside resort in this country.
The West Jersey and Atlantic from
Nowfiold to Atlantio City was built and in
augurated with conspicuous success undor
Pennsylvania management, tho Camden
and Atlantic was acquirod, and tho two
lines consolidated into tho Pennsylvania's
Doublo Lines to the Sea. These lines aro
now operated with that skill and vigor for
which tho Pennsylvania Railroad is cole
bralod. Tho roadway of each Una is in ox
collont condition. Laid with stool rails.

tho block-signal system, its physical con

of tueh trains on Such a road-bod is wnai
ovor tbo managomont chooses to mako it,
but in the ororciso of a wiso and conserva
tive judgment the maximum of sovonty
fivo minutes for tho run from city to sea
has boon adopted. This is as fast as tho
fastest trains in regular servico in lhia
country or abroad, and is quick onough to
meet the wishes of tho avorago travolor.
Thoso trains spood down to tho sea ovor

essence of this plan, and comfort Is assurod
by reason of substantial equipment, a clean,

without dust, and locomotives without cin

earned popularity of this the first-class
