THE PENNSY LINE
THE SHORT ROUTE TO BE PUT
IN .CONDITION.
A TRACK AROUND THE OLD ONE-
Work: Was Started Tbia Morning
and Speedy and Cheap Travel
to Pottsvillo Will Soon be
Re-established.
It was cheering news this morning to
learn that the Pennsylvania Kallroad
Company bad taken steps to put its short
lino routo botween here and Pottsvillo in
condition for travel.
Tbo suspension of traffic on this line has
been a source of great inconvenience and
tho uncertainty that has hovered over the
f Jture j the branch has been the subject
of considerable discussion, marked by ex'
pressions of regret.
The advantages of th short lino over
tho Delano routo bavo beon a saving of
one-third in the price of faro and a saving
in time of travel ot at least half an hour
made It vory popular, and this popularity
was increased by tho adoption of a now
schedule, just boforo the road was aban
doned.
The new schedulo enabled people to leave
town for Pottsvillo at 11:45 a. m., attond
court and return hero in time for supper,
Those are advantages with which the Le
high Vaiiy road cannot compete and when
deprived of them tho people naturally felt
aggrieved.
But, with its usual spirit of enterprise,
tho Pennsylvania Company has once more
stepped forward and will again put tho line
in condition. Tbo section of the road dam
aged by the cave-in will remain abandoned
and a new track will be laid around it. A
gang of .workmen and several hones and
carts were sent to tho placo early this morn
ing and began operations. It is believed
that trains will be running under the old
schodulo within a few days.
They all Read It
As a proof that the Herald is widely
road and that it Is the advertising medium
of this section, Mr. Wilson Otto, a young
man well known Ip town, is willing to
attest. Friday afternoon Mr. Otto placed
an advertisement in the Ribald, calling
for the return of a modal be lost the night
before. Saturday morning Mr. Otto called
at the Herald office and said, "You may
WUe my advertisement out. I received
the medal within three hours alter the
Herald was Issued lust night ana I giv.
the papor crodit for tho return." The
advertisement cost Mr. Otto but CO cents.
As an ther piece of evidence that tljt
Ukrald is widely road we reli-r our
readers to the several communications in
to-days issue on various subjects. It may
be stated here that the Herald will gldlj
publish all proper communications, what
ever tho number may be, but it is hoped
that our request in Saturday's issue will be
respected that the communications be as
short as a fair presentation of tbe su jecu
will admit. It is also necessary that ail
correspondents shall furnish their real
names with communications, not for publi
cation, but as an evidence of good faith.
This rule is imperative. Two communica
tions signed "Water" and "Special Elec
tion" received at this office this morning
will not be published because that rule has
nJtbeon complied with.

Hit Right.
Editor Herald : Saturday's Herald
was read by mo with great satisfaction.
The writer of the communication on the
doings of the joint water committee hit
hard and hit right. He may be wrong in
quobtioning the motivos of Messrs. Lamb,
Wurm and Cable, and I hope he is, but in
tho main he is correct. Let tbe people
settle this business at a special election. 1
am for a new water company and think a
majority of the voters aro, but let us say bo
by our ballots and leave- no quo'tion as to
the acts of the joint committee. It will be
tho best way out of the difficulty and will
give better satisfaction to all concerned.

attention of the Burgess to tho numerous

Tbore is ilways ono or two professionals

WHAT THE SCRIBES SEE AND HEAR
Quarterly Meeting in tho Motho-
dlst Episcopal, Church A Ser
mon Rev. S. W. Thomas, D.
D., Presiding Elder.
Sunday was what tho Methodists call
quarterly mooting. It was tho occa-ion of
the stated visitation of tho Presiding Llder,
Rev. S. W. Thomas, D. 1)., who con
ducted the quarterly Love Feast at 9 a. ra.
and preached at 10:30. He was grated by
a largo congregation who were deeply im
pressed by bis earnest words of counsel
and comfort. He spoke from John I-1G:
'Of His fullness have all we received, and
grace tor grace." After lifting the
thoughts of bis hearers to a fuller appro
hension of the boundlessness of God and
His resources, ho grouped his thoughts
under tbreo general heads. 1st Divino
lovois equal to human capacity. 2nd
Divine power is equal to human extremity
3d Divine comfort is equal to human
frailty. We receive "grace for grace."
God takes us just as wo are and fills us
full. He is able to do exceeding abund
anlly above all that wo ask or think accord
ing to the power that workoth in us. In
return ho asks us to servo Him with all our
powers. "Thou shalt love tho Lord thy
God with all thy heart" not somebody
else's heart "and with-all thy mind"
not somebody else's mind "and with all
thy soul" notsomebody else's soul "and
with all thy strength" not somebody's
oleos strength. Divino power supple
moms our weakness and provides for our
emergencies. The old Testament worthies
for whom God wrobgbt special miracles
aro having their experiences repeated in
every day life now not perhaps in identl
cal forms but in vital principles. There me
multitudes of heroes and martyrs who,
like tbe apostle, are dying daily crucify
ing tbo flesh and its lusts suffering for
consciences' sake who would rather die for
the truth than surrender it but the asso
ciated press never heralds their names.
For evory man that abstracts money from
his employer's safe there Are thousands
who have a chance to do it and won't, but
it is only the rascal that becomes famous.
To those faithful souls whose toilsome lot
becomes wearisomo to flesh and blood
thero Is an InSnito preciousness in tho
divine power which helps and the divine
comfort which sustains. Those points
were skilfully elaborated and beautifully
illustrated trom practical life. In tbe af
ternoon be addressed tbe Sunday school.
This was Dr. Thomas' first appearance in a
Sunday service in Shenandoah and it will
not soon be forgotten by those who heard
him. Tho evening sermon was by the
panor who raised : "Tho Battle Cry ol
the Church. "O Lord rovive'Thy work."
A Pastor Ordained.
The ordination of Kev Owoi' Enoch, the

place yosterday morning, when Rev, F. T
Evans, of Mahanoy City, delivered the
charge to Rev. Enoch Rev. Lewis d, -livered
the cbargo to tho church. Rev
Davies delivered the ordination prayer
At the conclusion of these ceremonies
Rovs, Evans and Lewis preached nble ser
mons. At 2 o'clock v. ra.. Rev. D. I Evans,
of the Welsh Baptist chureh, and R v
P -wick, of tho M. E. church, preached
two stirring sermons in English. Th
evening service was in Welsh, tbe preach
ing being by Revs. F. T. Evans and M
L wis. People crowded tha church -nd
isteced attentively for nearl three hour
The singing in tho evening service was
treat. Tho choir was ei-necially good am;
rendered "I wl'l arise and go to my father'
,ith splendid effect. The church can raise
a splendid Choir, as it has some of the be-1
volco in town. It Ii hop-d both Welsh
churches will give their attention to choi

them can act as a window-book man, or
take any other part in p litics, without
fear of losing his place; but, if a Republi
