U Last year there were 0,000 harm- cidesaud only 123 legal executions. 1 Judge Lynch, however, got in bis t work to the number of 195. ' Shortly after President Harrison's '. inaucriiratlon he annotated Patrick Egan Minister to Chill. Since then the Administration and Minister Egau U have been targets for abuse from the Democratic and Mugwump presa and I leaders, simply because Egan was an 1 Irishman. The scarcity of Irishmen in the Republican ranks la not due to 1 any fault of the party.

Uncle John Cessna, "the canal boat statesman," Is reported from Bedford to be a candidate for the Republican nomination for the Legis lature. The indications are that the House will have Botno big men in it. Ex-Senator Wallace will be there, and it is likely that other prominent statesmen will appear in due time as candidates.

At Yatesville another Hebrew, named Wetitvllle, n notions peddler, with a heavy pack upon his back, was struck. The huge paok acted like a buffer, nd instead of killing him he was thrown violeutly upon his back alongside the track. All hands thought he had been killed, but before the crew could reach htm ho was up and collecting bis scattered wares. Damage nnd Wreck on the Coast. Port Jefferson, L. I., Jan. 28.

THE GOAL DIGGERS ARE HEROES- Peouliar Ideas tho People of the Outside World Have of Coal Region Folks An Interest ing Article. How many of our people- have never seen the inierior of a coal breaker or mine. At leal two-thirds. And yet hardly a stranger who wanders intour valley leaves without seeing both. Why is this? Why do wo hurry to Europe, become enthusias tic over the Hbino, and neglect seeing the Hudson or Niagara's wondorlul flow? "We gazo with wonder on tho battle fluid of Waterloo, and fail to take a day off to sec Gettysburg. I can't tell wtij people do these things, but they do. ... I think wo eoo no novelty In familiar ob jucts. That is but natural. Yet we l'onn sylvanians who supply warmth and com fort for nearly all America should take sufficient interest in the miner and the bread winner, to go down in the gloomy depths and learn from observation just how the miner earns his bread. I ihmk In one trip you would find more penetrating warmth in the damp uncut coal than at your cheerful fireside. A warmth that would reach your hearts, for when you omorgo into daylight it would be with a feo.'ing of rofpect for the too reldom fa vorably considered miner. I am not a candidate for office, nor am 1 grinding an axe when I say that every man who works in the mines is a hero. It doesn't require a trip down there to teach us this truth That great historian of events, the news paper, tells of their heroism every day, Scarcely a day passes but irom under the surface comes the body of an unfortunate, who a lew hours before went singing to his work. But another takes bis place and tho work goes oq. "For man must work and women must weep." The greatest heroes tho world has ever known dashed to glory in a moment of excitement. Ask tho hero of tho battle field of his great capture of the enemies colors, and he'll tell you ho wa3intoxioited with excitement and didn't realize tho risk hs was taking, or ho never would have dono it. That is if ho tells tho truth, and Ed. Mason Is the only old foldler I know who will acknowlodgo that ho wasn't a hero, and I believe him. Besides, In battle a man has a cbanco to fight and knows what to fight, a minor has no chance. With him it is a case of truet to luck. The coal may fall on him, the rope in tho shall break, the gas explode, tho mine cave, the water drown him, a car run away, a premature blast occur, and he might cotne out alive, so he takes his chancos. But h realizes his danger. It isn't a caso of ex citement ; ho knows he t&koi his lifo in bis hands ind docs it bravely and willingly And all for broad. Heroes every one of tbem. "Wo bavo bad all kinds of accident! ii this valley. Hen have been shut in the mines, and It was nocersary for others to take tho chances of saving tho living or joining the dead. And they haye dune it without hesitation. An explosion takei- placa in tho mines and flverybody know- ihn fire damp nnd other dangers aro dovu in that hell. Yet tbero never has been a second call for volunteers. The great difficulty is to restrain mon from going down and yot wo tell of tho heroes of the battle field who died for country, wri 0 their names on tho scroll of fame, and give a six-lino notice in tho newspaper to the miner who dies for his followman. Oi course I am talking about something every oody knows, but stranga to say we never stop to think about it, for if we did we would have moro respect and praise for the brave fellows who earn tboir bread down in tho coal mines." The great outside world bas peculiar ideas about wo lellows In the Coal regions. In New York a few weeks ago I walked into a club room with a friend, and was somewhat eurprisod to discover that about fifty of the Inmates wore gazing ouriously at me. I at first thought it was thruunh idlo curio. ity. but when they began whit- peribK and nodding in my direction, I thought something wa up, and told my companion so. He only smiled. After be had introduced me all around and I twenty tim. s replied to the question, "Do you live in the coal fielus?" I began to suipect something, and then learnod the truth, My friend had announced that on that evening be would bring a mlnr from tho coal region to the club, and the boys bad assembled, expecting to soo a big six footer, with a big six shooter, walk In-with his pints in bis boots, and were disappointed, that's all, I was obliged to make a spoech In defence of my town and people for a scented dude'jald "How do you like living in a camp?" After I had talked (or about a hour on life in tho cal fields I heard ono chupplo iiy to another, "That fellow Is giving u- a bluff. He Is no more Irom tho coil fields than ! am." Tub Huitlkr A HORRIBLE DISASTER. An Engine Explodes and Kills Five Mon. Ono of the gigantic "mogul" onginet used on tho Philadelphia and Heading railroad exploded nt Newcastle this morn ing with dreadful t-ft'jct. Tho engineer, fireman and three o her members ot tho crew wero killed outright. The engine was drawing a train oi empty coul cars and was opposite Dark Water station of tho Pennsylvania railroad when it exploded. The enginOhnd many of tho cars woro blown to frigmonts and some of tho parts wero blown ovor to and against the embankment of tho latter road. Zeigler and Hawley, two of the men killed wore survivors of the ongino explo sion that took place at St. Clair scmo time ago. There were two other accidents on tho P, & R. road to-day. A train parted in the East Mabanoy tunnel this morning and traffic was dolayod for nearly two hours. This afternoon traffic on tho Shenandoah Mabanoy Place branch was delayed for some time by a coal train leaving the rails at Kohlnoor Junction. TWO MORE WRECKS.

Many of my fellow-workmen are wiestling manfully with it and I have been in tho battle with them, consequently I have bad acme terrible dream, of lato. I'hanlomsol every conceivahlo shape pre sented themselves. I imagined the air fan was broken and asked tho mine boss for permission to investigate and ascertain tho cause. Upin tho rrquost being granted I repaired to the air shaft "and a fearful spectacle presented itself. Somo miscreant had collected all the water it junctions and petitions maps of tho now water works, together with the costs, and AIiv Daven port's ilhograpbs and hurled tbem down tho shaft with the evident intention of im plicating the mines with tho borough My second vision was different. Itwaseleclion day and the politicians wero inflicted with ii.flueczi. The election was not conducted on tho Australian plan; on the contrary, ouch office seeker was stationed at the polls, arinod with a five gallon demijohn. Tho voters wero supplied with tickets and one swig with a promiso of three more dips if he should cast his vote for evory candi date In tho field. In my last vision I saw fifteen men, representatives of the bor ough carrying a hugo casting upon their shoulders with the following inscription, mdo of gilt-edged wall paper : "A Wti a Elephant Crutber For Sale." Wh n I awoke I was extremoly thankful that one honest man had expressed himself to a re porter that tho borough bad expended J5.C00 for that which was not bread. I agree with Contract Labor Inspectors Oonkling and O-borno whon they say the law protecting American labor is prac tically useless. I will speak of that again.
