PETER'S PARAGRAPHS '

HE TOUCHES UPON MANY
INTERESTING SUBJECTS.
BRINGING RIGGIN'S BODY HOME
A Column of Comment From the
Pen of a Woll-known and
Entertaining "Herald" Con
tributor. OTHING unusual Is
thought of a person's
hair turning white,
but a case in which
the hair turned black
is reported from
Detroit. A lady of
that city originally
had black oyes and
hair, but in the course
of tlmo, when she bad
attained the ago ot about seventy joars, her
hair turned pure white. .This was expected;
but about a year ago her hair began
darkonlng and is now as black as jot.
There Is no doubt about tho change, nor
was any artificial means used to produce It,
so that the case is certainly one of tho most
remarkable recorded In the annals oj
medical history, The lady, was not con
scious of any, ,chango in diet or In her
physlpal copdition that would justify the
curious phenomenon, so it Is absolutely
Inexplainable on any known hypothesis.
"Watch your hair.
Canned fruits. havo become, so common
and have come ,Into euch general use that it
is not surprising to hear of poisonings
frora,their use. No serious cases have yet
occurod in our midst , from, this cause, but
several per-ons have been made quite Bick
from tho tllects of, eating, canned fruits put
up in tin caus. Tbo acid in a can of pinei
apples nearly killed two peqplo at Consho
hocken tbo other day, and quite a number
of cases of poisonings are reportod from
elsewhere. These poisonings occur only
whero the artlcle.eaten is put up in tin cans.
It costs a littlo more for those put up in
gass but there is, positive safety in canned
iruiu puii up in glass vessels.

The Ministerial Association, composed
of ministers of the various churches of
town, havo, undertaken several reforms,
the most important of which is the pro
posed establishment of a iree reading room
in town, where the youth, as well as tho
aged, can speed their spare momenta
profitably in reading such literature as the
association may secure. This action of the
clergymen should meet with the hearty
approval and Co-operation of every parent
In town, as it will offer inducements to the
young to spend their evenings in a more
profitable manner than is now being done
by many of them.
All praise to the ministers.
.
Hero's an Item of news that will interest
many .of your readers.
The body of Charles Rlggin, tho Phil
adeiphia sailor who was brutally murdered
by a mob in t,he streets of Valparaiso,
Chili, Is now on its way to the Unitod
states. Consul JUcUreary Is accompany
ing.tho remains of the martyred sailor.
Two boys named Byrne and KUcoyno
were arrested last night by O. & I. police
men and brought to town to answer
charges of stealing rides on coal trains'.
The pojlco havo had considerable trouble
with boys who persist in this dangerous
habit and they havo concluded to let no
case, go without at least a fine, It ii.strange
that the boys will contlnuo to Indulge In
the practice when so many havo been
maimed and killed through it. "When this
argument is made tbo offenders invariably
reply, "They didn't know how to do It."
Sfimfl of tho boys In and near Win, Fenn
junction will either land inv ail or bo sub
jeclod to a severe fino If they do not change
their tactics. The O. & I, Police havo an
eye on them. The charge Is more serious
than jumping on coal trains. "When the
excursion train was on its way from Lake,
sido to town last night a boy stood beside
the track near tho junction and held a
largo pole close to tho car windows, Tho
train.was going pretty lively at the time
and a man who received a whack on' the
hand from the pole was not put in a pleas
ant frame of mind, Three large young
fellows stood beside the mlschevous boy
and did not attempt to make htm desist.
V
Another illustration oi the red tape
business that follows in the wake of the
Bakor ballot law was glvan last night,
John J. Coyle, of Mahanoy City, Republi
can candidate for tho Legislature, was
obliged to hunt all over town for the officers
of the convention that nominated hitii in
ordor to get their signature to the certifi
cate of nomination whch he Is obliged to
file at PottsvIUe to get his name properly
on the tlfiket for the, campaign next fall.
This part of the law puts the candidates to
fc'eedleu expense and trouble and tends to
Kc'onTeftfericdth'o' people 'who'' prollde at
nomjnatlng conventions. But It is the
law. " '
' V
It Is remarked that there Is ' very " little
discussion qver the last injunction the
water comoanv secured mraiust the bor
ough and joint committee.' It is true (hat
there has not boon much public ditcuseidn.
It is all under cover, so far a9 the public
yvater wirks people are concerned, Th'ey
are. nervous and really do not seem to
know how to take the matter. Some of
them have admitted that they expect to be
defeated in tho PotUvillo court, but thpy
qualify the admission with the statement
that the borough -of Shenandoah cannot
win a caso at Pottsvil'e and that when tho
Supreme Court is reached- tho matter will
bo decided in their favor. I fear this hope
will not avail much. One thing is certain,
if all matters surrounding this water farce
could get leforu the courts tho water com
pany wculd knock out tho boomors in tho
tribunal of appeal, as well as in the lower
court, as easy as rolling oft a log. A
reputable citizen complains that he was
dupod into voting for the Increase of debt.
Ho says that when asked-to vote for the in
crease he pluinly toU-the party who made
the solicitation that he would not vote that
Way jf a taxation of any kind would bo
put,on the popple., He was. assured that
this would not be dqne.i Now that a levy
6f ,8 per cent has beenrmade the aforesaid
reputable citizen is like a maddoncd bull.
Tho revulsion of feeling is not limited to
one case, and when the, boomers again ask
tho people for their votes, they will find a
hornet's about their heads.

was full five times its natural size and com
