A NEWSY GOLUMN
FROM PETER'S PEN
AN ITEM ON THE CONDITION
OF THE WEATHER.
SUFFERING AMONG CHILDREN
Additional Orders to Brakomen
and Conductors Under the
Reading System Harry
Davenport's Vonturo.
IIE Bultry weather is
hvo. Reports of
TTdpW suffering children are
coming in irom an
quarters of tho town.
There was plenty suf
fering yostorday
among adults. Even
the sturdiest com.
plained of the heat and couldn't see that
life was very much worth living under
such seething weather conditions. Among
the older people, however, thero was only
one caeo reported in which serious results
were feared. Agent T. J, Davies, of tho
depot, was overcome by tho heat, but was
all right again to-day.
Tho discovery has been made that on one
side of tho new quarter dollar there are
thirteen seperate representations of the
number thirteen. An exchange says that
a physician discovered the fact, and thai it
was probably the intention of tho designer
of the new silver piece to have thirteen
occur thirteen times, but thero are fow
people who have noticed this fact. There
are 13 stars, 13 letters in the scroll head in
tho eagle's beak, 13 marginal feathers In
each wing, 13 tail feathers, 13 parallel lines
in the shield, 13 horizontal bars, 13 arrow
hoads in one foot, 13 leaves on the branch
in the other foot, and 13 letters in the words
"quarter dollar." Perhaps that supersti
tion is the reason people prefer "halves to
quarters."
Tho committee having chargo of the
arrangements for the 13th annual conven
tion of the Firemen's Association of tbo
State of Pennsylvania, to be held at
Hazloton on September 20, 21, 22 and 23,
has issued elegant invitations to the fire
companios of tho state. An interesting
circular describing the advantages of Eaz
leton as' a place for tho convention and
forecasting the hotel and other Arrange
ments for the occasion has also been sont
out. The Hnzleton people evidently
Intend to give the, "tiro laddfos" a good
time.
Tbo Roading system has issued anotbor
circular of instructions to its passenger
conductors and brakemon. At all stations
where a passonger train stops, the name of
tho station must bo twico announced
loudly, slowly and distinctly, after the
train has come to a full stop, Inside of oach
car, and if convenient inside each end of
each car. Immediately after leaving the
station tho following announcement must
be made In each car and in each end of
each car : "The next station will be "
(giving Its name ) If the next station will
bo a signal station, announce, "the next
station will bo stop on signal." If
the train passes (without stopping) any
signal station which has been announced,
another announcement must then bo made
for the next station. At all stations whoro
passengers are notified to move from one
car to another, and at all stations whore
passengers are notified to change cars, and
at all terminal stations, these words must
be added as a part of tho announcement,
"do not overlook your baggage."
Henry Davenport, tho proprietor of the
notorious variety show known as the May
Davenport female combination, is about to
float an insuranco scheme in the form of a
1 cent weekly paper, to be published sim
ultaneously In Wilkos-Barro and Scranton,
Tho holder of a copy ol the curront Issue
of the journal will bo entitled to compen
sation for injury or a largo amount in cash
in case of death, When informed that tbo
state authorities recently jumped on tho
Philadelphia Inquirer for a similar scheme,
Mr. Davenport said that a little thing like
tbat wouldn't Interfere with his plans.
He had figured out the cost in running tho
Wilkes-Barre Press, as he terms his new
sheet, and has without doubt ascertained
that there are "millions in it."
V
The trouble at Homestead seems to bo
the absorbing topic of conversation,
especially among our laboring classes.
You will find partisans on each side of tbo
controversy, but the most radical advocate
of either side is tho man who is a labor
advocate for revenuo only, T. V. Powderly.
He is at the head of tho Knights of Labor,
and is reported as saying tbat the struggle
at Homestead "Is but the rumbling of the
coming revolution that is to decide whether
Wall streot shall or shall not control tho
country." This it wild, demsgogical
rubbish. Mr, Powderly; does not believo
it, and he'ls' only' talking for effect Wall
ttrtol swr controlled this country, U not
K
controlling It now, and never will. The
country is controlled by the votes of
millions and millions of Intelligent cilizms,
and a large proportion of those votes an
cast by workingmen.
4
Powderly's uttoranco is un-American.
Tho workingmen ol this country want no
revolution that is to be wrought out bj
dynamite, by the rifle and the torch. They
have tho best government over given ti
man, and they know it. The organic law
in which it rests provides for whatever
reform may bo deorued necessary, and it
IrownB upon all attempts at violence. The
General Mastor Workman who does no;
work might find some better way ol
earning his salary than by playing tho
parrot to Anarchist Host.
The worst anarchists tho really danger
ous classes in this country are not the
Hosts who plot revolution while gulping
down beer, but the editors who preach it
from luxurious editorial rooms in order to
gather in a Niagara of pennies over the
counters in the fretcoed nubllcation offices.
These men are the real jcemies of society
If wo may believe thorn, tho whole Gov
ernment is a grand swindle. Every man
who has made a fortunols a robber. Every
manufacturer is a plunderer. Evory
capitalist is an outlaw. This doctrine is
preached from one end of tho year to the
other, not that the writers believe it, but
because jt pays. They are anarchists, but
for revonue only.
Peter.
BEAR THIS IN MIND.
The Grant Hand will Open l'astlme Turk
To-morrow.
Everybody who wishes a day of solid
enjoyment will attend the grand opening
pienjo to be held at Pastime Park to-morrow
under the auspices of the Grant Band
of town. A grand concert by the band
will signalize the event and the famous
Schoppe orchestra of ton pieces will furnish
music at the dancing pavilion. There will
bo no catch-penny enterprises at tho park,
all the contrivances for amusement of the
old and young being of a perfectly legit'
imate order and calculated to give the most
amusement at the lowest price. The ride
to the park over the new section of the
electric railway will itself more than repay
tbo visitors. Tho mammoth carousal will
whirl with old-time popularity and when
the shades of night fall, instead of finding
themselves in a dark or dimly lighted
place, will be able to continue enjoying
themselves beneath tho rays of electric
lights. It is the intention of tho park
management to make tho place popular
with all. Everything will bo done to make
the place a family resort. Such a place
has been soroly needed in this valley since
the abandonment of Columbia Park and
it will be well patronizod.
Bear in mind the Grant Band will open
Pastimo Park to-morrow by holding a
grand musical festival and picnic.

EXCITEMENT ON
EAST CENTRE STREET
A DEFECTIVE FLUE BADLY
FRIGHTENS MRS. SHAPIRA.
TENANTS COMPLAIN BITTERLY
Other Happenings Cleaned by
Our Corps of Reporters A
Largo Excursion to Lake
side To-day.
HE residents ol East
Centre street, near the
Lehigh depot, were
startled this morning
by a woman's voico
shouting a cry of
"Fire I" Atthoeamo
time clouds of thick,
black smoke poured
from a window of one!
of the rows of frame
buildings on tho south sideof Centre street,
betwoen Whito street and Plum alley,
owned by John Bobbins.
Neighbors hastened to tho house and
succeeded, with the aid of a few buckets of
water, in subduing the cause of trouble.
The fire companios wero not callod out.
Tbo woman who gavo the alarm was
Mrs. It. Shapira. She awoke while ex
periencing a suffocating sensation. When
she realized her position sho jumped from
her bed and alarmed the neighbors. Her
room was filled with smoke and her friends
say that she barely escaped suffocation.
It appears that when Mrs. Shapira's
servant started a fir a In the kitchen stove
this morning the chimney would not carry
off the smoke, which made its way into the
rooms.
The tenants of the houses in tho vicinity
were very indignant this morning. They
said that the chimney has been complained
of repeatedly, but for some unknown
reason it has not roceived the attention of
tho landlord.
Mrs. Shapira had an exciting exporienco
with fire on tho Fourth of July and it took
but little smoke to alarm her to-day. The
clothing of her young niece was lit on flro
and in pulling tho clothing from tho child
Mrs. Shapira had her hands burned.

Tbore was a game ot base ball at Maha

The visitors scored 12 runs and prosentod
their opponents with a goose ogg. Maha

A Splendid Concert.
The Grant Band last night gavo an open
air concert at tbo corner of Main and Coal
streots. The programme was an excellent
one and the selections were rendered with
splendid effect. Prof. Zeilz, the leader,
was in good spirits and as ho will leavo for
Germany beforo the band will bo able to
give another concert on our streets he
furnished the people with tbo troat. All
the selections were of a standard character
and many musical men who listened to tbo
renditions declared that the concort was
one oi the finest they had over heard.
Tbore is one consolation Prof. Zeitz will
have whon be takes his departure. Ho has
made tho Grant Band ono of the finest
musical organizations In tho state, and of
which our townsmen aro proud.

John J. Coyle, of Mahanoy City, the
Republican candidate for tho Legislature
from that district, is only twenty-nine vears
of age. He was a resident of this countv
for four years, his parents living in Centra

days a week with 12 hours each day.
Thero Is some talk of starting No. 1,
Oflkdale, on 16 hours each day. A super
intendent of one of tho collierios near
Hazloton says that all tho collieries in the
region havo granted the miners nearly
four per cent, of a raise on their wages for
this month. At Stockton and Drifton
notices Lave been posted to this effect.
John Datesman, postmaster at West
Milton, Pa., has been notified by the postal
authorities at Washington that he is tho

was born in Northampton county, August
30, 1810. He was postmaster at Fenners-

MDLITARY TRAINING;.
A New Movement In Organization by Bos
ton W orkmen.
The Boston Herald says that a secret
organization of workingmen called "Our
Own Club" has been formed in that city
for tho purpose of giving Union workers
military training.
The men who took the oath of allegiance'
state that the time has come when the'
working people of this country must pre
pare to overthrow the Pinkertons, or any
similar body of what they termed "hired
assistants and mercenary dosperadoes." It
is tbo opinion of these men that the large
capitalists of this country have concluded
to destroy all labor organizations, in order
that reductions of wages may be enforced
without protest from the wage-earners.
It is claimed that the New England1
Granite Manufacturers' Association is in
sympathy with Carnegie, Frick and Pink
erton, and that its members would take
similar action to that at Homestead in t'uo
granite cutters' striko if they had tho
courage. It is asserted by the members of
the club that tho legislation enacted against
the Pinkortons by this and other states is of
no practical value to the Union workers.
The Pinkerton army, they maintain, can
bo placed in any state by capitalists, re
gardless of any laws. Sub-committees
were appointed to organize branches of
the society in every industrial centre of the
Commonwealth and no man will be per
mitted te join unless ho is a wage earner
and can successfully answer certain per
tinent questions.
