A QUIET EVENING.
'n Evcnlnc Experience of Mr. Itodwell.
of Kelson Street.
ICopyrightcd by Leo & Shcparil. Boston, and
published by special arrangement with tlicm.I
Mr. Bodwell, of Kelson street, sat
clown for n quiot communion with hia
family and the newspaper on Thursday
'evening. All the children but the eldest
had eaten supper, and ha was industri
ously engaged at that task. Mr. Bod
well drew np to tho lamp, selected an in
teresting article that would undoubtedly
engross hia wife, and commenced to ro
produco it, while she, patient woman,
kept her eyes on tho children, as the
father was very sensitive to foreign
noises when engaged in reading. Bod
well had got down tho column some
-twelvo lines, and was just luying him
self out on tho big words, when ono of
the girls, while taking unusual precau
tion to step around a scuttle of coal,
actually stepped into it, and a bewilder
ing crash followed.
''Merciful heaven!" shouted Bodwell,
"what was that?" Mrs. Bodwell ex
plained, tho other children tittered, and
the girl, being a wise child, knew her
own father, and sagaciously left. Again
isoawell picked up tho paper, and giv-
ut spitetul twist, resumed tho ar

'Ivy "Old Time" white
handled the subject soon conquered tsort
well's mind. Ho became wholly ab
sorbed in tho matter, and at ono point
he involuntarily brought down hia
clinched hand with a force that amply
expressed his own feelings and very
forcibly stirred up thoso of one of the
children, who had caught tho full effect
of tho descending fist.
"Will somebody cut mo open?" plead
ed the despairing man, as ho caught up
tho shrieking offspring and fell to rub
bing its back, whilo tho mother dashed
after tho camphor, and tho other chil
dren, awestruck by tho affair, rushed
into tho hall to laugh. It waa full five
minutes before the injured ono was qui
eted, and by that timo Mrs. Bodwoll ex
pressed a de6iro to hear no more of the
articlo; but Bodwell was determined
then to finish it anyway, and he resumed
the paper. During tho progress of the
next reading a littlo girl came in to bor
row a flatiron, and the mother got up to
give it to her, moving about so quietly
that Bodwell waa not interrupted. The
eldest boy was still at his supper. He
waa a good boy. Whenever ho wanted
anything ho stood up and reached for it
himself, and did it very quietly.
Just as tho littlo girl departed with
the llatiron, tho heir, who had his fa
ther's boots on, stood up to reach ovei
tho table for tho sixth tart. The mothet
in returning detected tho vacant chair.
and fearing somo one would fall over it
and make another disturbance, she
thoughtfully moved it back to the wall,
and just got by us the heir settled back
with the coveted tart, and finding noth
ing but tmn air to receive him made
desperate effort to savo himself, but
waa too late, and cainodowu on the (loot
with ft crash that mado every timber in
thehouso sqncak.and tho horrified parent
on looking up, was nearly petrified with
amazement to see las own boots clawin
madly among tho dishes, whilo tho dis
tracted occupant was vainly endeavoring
to extricate himselttrom under the table,
That wound up the evening's entertain
ment The disgusted Bodwell put on
his coat and lied down street, leaving
tno very soro and mortiiied heir to sup
press the mirth indiscreetly displayed by
tho other children as he best could with
tho ugencies at hand.
Can Point "With Pride.
All good Republicans in the stato
should vote for Gregg and Morrison in
November, and we believe they will
for these men represent the principles of
government which have been so bene
ficial to the state and nation for the past
thirty years. Gregg and Morrison are
men to whom the Republicans of this
state can point with pride, for they are
of the stock which makes the best of
public servants honest, sincere men
whoso characters aro above reproach.
whose whole lives have been sient in
honest industry, in good deeds for the
umiun auu xur luuir leapeuuvo com
munities, and whose axperieuco has
been such as to fit them for the duties
which the Republicans propose to elect
tuein to pcriorni.

Tho lonnsylvnnia Railroad is always
roaching out for so-nothlng new to pleai
tho public and tho Hkkalu 19 always glad
to record tho facts appertaining thoroto.
Last year It organized its own tours to tho
Pacific coast and thoy wore so successful
that they havo wisoly determined to have
them again this year with an additional
tour to Mexico, something never yot done
by a railroad corporation. Thoso tours
will bo limited to a cortain number ol
passengers, who will travol in r Pullman
voUlbtiletrain, furnished with tho luxurious
appointments of tho richest home, with la
dios' maid, stenographer and typewriter,
library, bath and barber, and.tmoklng and
library rooms, and an observation car in
truth an exact reproduction of tho Penn
sylvania Limitod.
The first tour leaves New York January
13th, and speeds direct to tho Pacific Coast
via St. Louis, Kansas City, Las Vtgas and
Santa Fe. Tho second tour, tho Mexican,
leaves February 10th, running directly to
tho City of Mexico via Cincinnati, Mam
moth Cave, Ulrmingham, Montgomery and
New Orleans, with incidental stops en
route. Tho third, February 21th, runs di
rectly to New Orloans via Cincinnati nnd
Mammoth Cave, and. thonco, after the
Mardi Gra3 festivities, to tho Pacific Coast.
Tho fourth and Cab, both through Califor
nia tours, will leave March 21th and April
20th, respectively.
Tho tours list ytar were so successfully
conducted that thoso who took them wera
unanimous in thtir praise of tho manage
ment. Tho trip to Mexico, liko thoso to
tho Paciflo coast, will bo just at tho right
season of the year, and all tho comforts, at
tentions nnd enro that is obtninablo on a
Pennsylvania Railroad excursion will bo
furnished on this. It will unquestionably
bo tho best way to seo tho land of tho
Aztecs and under tho most advantageous
circumstances. Tho rates aro reasonable
and cover all necessary expenses. Further

crosing of tho Lohigh Valley railroad is
so situated that E-idio McAteo, tho gate-
man, has sometimes found it difficult to pet
tho gates down in timo. Thoro is a deep
cut near the houso and it is impossiblo to
seo a train coming eastward until it ia al
most nt tho crossing. Tho Lehigh Valloy
compmy has now furnishod an electric ap-
pnanoj uy wmcn 1110 gatemnn will boab 0

got tho gates down in ample time. A
small electric battery has been placed in

wiro strotched along tho track around
tho curvo to tho watch box at
tho Pennsylvania round homo, whoro an
other battery has been placod. At this
point n small wire attuchmont has been
placed at the side of tho rails. As tho
wheels of an east bound locomotive, or car.
touch this wiro it creates u current that
rings a large gong placod on a pole at tho

of tho train's approach. Tho gong rings
loudly until tho train passos tho crossing.

Mysterious Origin.
Shortly beforo ono o'clock this mcrning
tlio whistlo of tho Kohinoor colliery
broakor was blown vigorous and tho fire
boll in tho tower of tho borough building
took tho signal and scundod n genoral
alarm. Tho blowing of tho whiitlo lod tho
peoplo to boliovo that tho breaker waa on
DroBndthoy jumped from, their beds and
flocked to tho colliery in drove?.
Fori unately tho firo was not as serious
a' at Urst supposed, but it was terlniu
enough to render n minor and Ms family
homeless.
Tho firo was in a houso located just west
of tho borough lino ownod by Mrs. Uren-
nan and oc upied by Thomas llanna nud
his family.
Tho Columbia and Phoenix companiei
tried to get near tho sccno, but finding no
mrans to secure water thoy returned. Tho
Rescuo Hook end Ladder Company
ttoppod its truck at tho Kohinoor colliery
and soveral of its men onered what sorvico
they could give with their drag hooks and
other appliances, but by tho time they
reached the plsco tho structure was
doomed and nothing but tho foundation
walls and ono sldo of tho building was left,
Mr. llanna, tho occupant of tho building.
and hU wifo and infant child had a narrow
oscapo from falling victims of the flames
Mr. llanna had worked on tho night shift
and got homo shortly after cloven o'clock
Ho retired with hia wifo and child about
twelve o'clock. The latter foil intoasound
sleep, but the father was rostloss aftor his
hard'day's work. Fortunately ho was, for
had he fal'en into a deep -lumber it would
havo been his sloop of death.
As Hanna lay in a dozing conditid,-. ba
thought ho heard a noiso like the crackling
of burning timber. Gradually recovering
ins senses, llanna aroso from tho bod and
oponod tho doer of tho bodroom. Tho hall
was full ofsmike. Hastening back Mr.
Hannah aroused his wifo and chi'd. They
didn't havo timo to put on any street ap
parol and woro obliged to make thoir way
down stairs and out to tho road in thoir
night clothes. Hanna proceeded to nrcuso
tho noighbors. All woro nsloop and wholly
unconscious of tho danger at thoir doors.
The family in one of tho housos next to tho
burning structure slept so soundly that tho
window panes of thoir sleeping apart
ments had to bo broken with stones
to arouse them. Having alarmed
tho neighborhood Hannah returned
to his houso and tried to mako his
way through it to tho back room, but was
unable to do so. Ho then tried to get up
stairs again to got somo of his clothing, but
in this ho also failed. Thon ho tried to
savo tho conlonts of his parlor, but tho firo
mado such rapid hoadway that after ho
succeeded in removing n sidoboard and n
sifa he found it impossible to roturn tothu
h mso again.
Tho building was a two-story and attio
frame structure and formed.tho best kind of
material to food tho flamos, as it was old.
It was burned to the ground and alt tho
contents, with tho exception of tho two
pieces takon from tho parlor, wero des
troyed. Mr. Hanna stood in front of tho building
as tho flames gradually consumed each
piocoand said to a roportor: "Yos," he
said, "I am burned clean out and I haven't
got a cent of insurance. Evon tho cloth
ing went up. All I have is this old pair of
pants and bat and my wilo and child havo
nothing but thoir night clothes. I don't
know what started tho firo. It is a mystory

tho middlo of tho night, but ovorything

was a narrow oscapo."
"Yes, Tom, you were lucky," said a
bystander, "and I hope that this will show
tbo Girard Ettato people tho necessity of
giving lonio means to securo water in case
of firo. They have uny amount of wator,
but thoy aro too d n stingy to lay the
