COMMENTS ON LIVE TOPICS
OP THE DAY.
RAILWAY AND OTHER MATTERS
Tho Pennsylvania "and Reading
Railroad Companies at Logger
beads A Bogus Mr. Jaok
eon Flouts About Town.
E may expect lively
news in connection
with the construction
of the Ponntylvnnla
Railroad's Girardvillo
branch. Tho com
piny'B turveys lined
tho routo on the
mountain south of the
Turkey Run colliery breaker, but a change
was made ncctsjary on account of tho P.
fc R. 0. & I. Co, building a plotforra eo as
to cross tho lino, Tho "Ponnsy" company
has now decided to build tho lino lower
down and run under a portion of tho
breaker and then trestle over the olectric
railway and connect with the original route
south of tho Win, Ponn turnplko. To get
undor the breaker It will bo necessary for
tho "Penney" to cut away timbers to make
a passage wido enough and when tho work
ot making tho passage begins tho fun will
bloom. Italians have started work on the
now branch near tho Shenandoah Citj
colliery and tho Turkey Run colliery
episode will not materialize forsuveral days
to come. .
I notice a paragraph in the Bluefield,
(W. Vn.) Railway and Mining Journal
that speaks as lollows concerning one ot
our townsmen : "Mr. Harry S. Roughey,
of Philadelphia, Pa., has accepted a
position in Jlisi Wildor's barber shop. He
is a first class artist and is making many
friends by his amii.blo manner and eaby
workmanship."
The action of tho Borough Council In
adopting an ordinance authorizing the
borrowing ol money for public wator
works is a subject of considerable discus
sion. A quotuon has been raised as to
whether or not the Councilmon who Toted
for tho adoption have violated the injunc
tion granted by the court and which is
still in force pending argument. If there
is a violation the members who so voted
are liable to be hauled up for contempt of
court.
.
Tho Shenandoah IIeiuld threatens to ex
pose the names ot Heading bosses who have
been trying to compel employes to deal at cer
tain stores. Tell the whole story. It will ac
complish good. 2V- Weekly Record.
Only one thing remains to bring the mat-
tor to an issue and that is the appointment
by tho P. & R. Company of soaio noutral
party to conduct an investigation. The
names of people and places are ready for
dolivory to such a party. The complain
ing parties refuse to give the facts for pub
lication until the Reading Company makes
a sorious attempt to show that it does not
countenance company stores. In other
words tho complainants are not disposed to
placo tho ammunition in tho hands of tho
onemy,
.
Tho following personal was handed to us
last evening for publication, with a request
that a copy of the paper be sent to Ash
land : "It. O. Jackson, ox-superintendont
of the Railway Mail Sorvico; was a visitor
to town to-day, Mr. Jackson is a distant
rolative of tho late Secretary Folgor."
This Mr. "Jacksen" must bo a fraud.
R. O. Jackson is new superintendent of
tho Railway Mail (Service, Now York
division. lie is not in tho habit of bum
ming around tho country and knocking a
barkeeper's eye out for a drink after herald
ing his namo and position, Tho worthy
superintendent is altogether a difibrent
kind of a man and he has two arms not
one, as is tbo case with tho alleged Mr.
"Jackson," I think Mr. "Jackson" wasted
timo hero.
V
I am informed that a young woman who
ran away lrom her homo In Pottsville is a
guest of ono of our botols at the expense of
two young men of town. I note this to
givo tbo parents of the wayward girl a clue
to her whereabouts anoV to lot tho hotol
keeper know that I knew tho place is not
being conducted on a legilimato plan.

A SOCIAL EVENT.
A 1'nrty at the Struup ltesldonco Last
livening.
Dr, 1). W. Straup and wife last ovoning
gave a conundrum party at Iheir residence
on East Lloyd street in honor of their
guest, Mrs, Joseph P. Pfafl", of Slatington.
Tho rear porch of tho residonco was elabor
ately decorated with flowors and bunting of
various colors and detign snd afforded a
very cosy and enjoyablo placo forthoguosts
during the evening. Among tho guests
wero Dr. James Stein and wito, O. Holder

M. S, and D. S. Kiitler and Dr. Hamilton.
An excellent luncheon was eervod and tho
guett succeeded in passing a very pleasant
ovening by solving the amusing conun
drums thoy found undor their plates. Dr.
and Mrs. Straup are excellent entertainers,
m all who partook of their hospitality last
night agreed.
HERE AND THERE.
Interesting Items Concerning Different
Sections of the ltcgluu.
Tho deadlock in tho Mahanoy township
school board continues, and, since-tho meet
ing of Friday night last, all (-ffoit to bring
tho two sides together for the transaction
of business scorns to be impossiblo, and a
reorganization of the board by the court
appears to bo the only recourse left.
A Sbamokin young man, who sprained
bis foot.in n game of bull, was obliged to
havo the member amputated, as blood
poisoning set in.
Tho nzleton Plain-Speaker says: "Paul
Eiwards, the carriage builder, is a great
pigeon fancier of local fame. Among his
many pigeons he has numerous Antwerp
carriers. Not long since ho gave a friend
of his in Mahanoy City two eggs laid by
ono of bis celebrated carriers for hatching
purposes as the friend wished to havo
several of that kind am6ng his flock. As
soon as matured thoy flow to this cltv and
took up their quarters in Mr, Edward's
coop. This is a pigeon story that we know
all about ourselves.
Pure and Wholesome Quality
Commends, to public approval the Call
fornia liquid laxatho remedy, Syrup of
Figs. It is pleasant to the taste and by
acting gontly on the kidneys, liver and
bowels to cleanse the system effectually, it
promotes the health and comfort of all
who use it, and with millions it is the best
and only remedy.
POPULAR ONE DAY
Trips to the Sea Shore via Pennsylvania
Itallruutl.
At this season a day taken for recreation
is never without good results. From tho
fact of so many resorts being within a short
distance of the city, and the low rate ex
cursion tickets prevailing, no excuse oxists
for not taking short vacations.
Tho popular tri-weekly day trips to
Asbury Park, Ocean Grove and Long
Branch are within the reach of all.
They leave from Maikot street wharf
oyery Tuesday, and run via Sea Sido Park.
From Broad street every Wednesday, and
every Thursday from Market street wharf,
running via Bordontown and Jamesburg,
The excursions will be continued until the
close of August. Special trains will leave
Philadelphia uniformly at 7 a. m return
ing, leavo Long Branch at 0 10 p. m., and
tbo old popular rate of $1 60 for adults and
75 conts for children under 12 years of age
will be continued.
To Work Out Tuxes.
Pathma'ter Coyle, of Hazle township,
says the Sentinel, has been notified by the
coal mining companies of the township,
except J. C. Haydon & Co., of Jeanesville,
and Linderman & Skeor, of Stockton, that
they would work out their taxes on the
roads instead of paying cash as formerly.
A. Pardee & Co. havo men at work now on
tho road betweon Hazleton and Cranborry.
This new movo of the companies will give
tho township good roads but it will throw
out of work many of tho men who have
been putting in time on the "pikes."

DIVISION OF THE
WARDS OF TOWN
THE VIEWERS HELD A MEET
ING THIS MORNING.
FIGHT OYER DIVIDING LINES
'Squiro Mormghan Leads It bo as
to Secure a Division of tho
First Ward by Centre

v"r""H E viewers appointod

visability of dividing
the wnrds of town,
Col. J. G. Frick, A.
B, Cochran and J, H.
Mudoy, all of Potts-
villo, mot at the
Kendrick House this
morning to hear suggestions and view
maps. 'Squire Monagfaan and bis wholo
court staff was on band to represent the
First ward. H. J. Muldcon speko for the
Fifth and F. J. Bronnan tho Third.
The Wbittaker brothers, Edward O Don-
null, John T. Stanton, Chief Burgess Smith
and George Folmer were also on hand
S. G. M. Hollopeter, Esq., T. R. Beddall,
Esq., and a number of others were presont
to urge tho division. Col. Frick was chair
man of the meeting. 'Squire Monaghan
and Mr. Hollopeter stated that the neces
sity for making tbo division was conceded
and thd 'squire added that tho only differ
ence of opinion was on tho division lines.
Ho produced a map which, ho thought,
showed n fair division.
Aftor considerable discussion over tho
map Col, Frick decided to adjourn and
give the petitioners until tbo 27th inst. to
prepare and produce a map. 'Squire
Monaghan was opposed to any delay, but
the Colonol ovorruled his objection.
There now appears to be no doubt about
a division being made. In fact it doos not
seem that tbo viewers will consider that
question at all, but will devoto the atten
tion to the fixing of dividing lines.
Neirsimper Comment.
The Shenandoah Sunday iVtioj comes
out tquaroly in favor of the County Com
missioners, together with whatever ex
travagance, misappropriation of money and
all thoy may bo guilty of, Tho Ncics is
also the self-appointed champion of the
Independent candidate for President
Judge and bristles all ovor with madness
because, with the exception of the Ashland
Telegram, all tho daily papers in the
county and nearly every weekly in tho
same territory endorsed the action of tho
Auditors by resolution for tho investiga
lion of the monetary affairs of tho county,
in which some astonishing developments
havo resulted. But this a free country
ind the A'fwj is fully entitled to its
opinions, which, howevor, will not avail in
putting a stop to the investigation now in
progress on the WAX. Republican

POLITICAL POINTS.
Local, Comity, State and National Theme
Considered,
There is much activity at the National
headquarters of both parties.
Banner raisings is all the go in somo parts
of the country.
Grey Gables and Loon Lake will go
down in political history as tho resting
places for presidential candidates.
If Congress had remained in session
another fortnight, tho Democrats wouldn't
havo carried a Northern state in November.
As it is, they have a fighting chance to
carry New Jersey, but even there tho tide,
is against them.
Toll those "protection Democrats" if
you can find them that their room is bet
tor than their company. They are not
Democrats at all. They are Republicans,
and, if they bo honest men, thoy will voto
for Harrison. Wo don't want them,
Louisville Courier-Democrat.
Now that Congress has put up tho shut
ters nnd tuined off the gas, natural and
manufactured, Senator Vest will probably
go back to old Missouri and resume tho
"war of extermination upon protected in
dustries" which bo waged so valiently, but
unsuccessfully, just four years ago. A lit
tle vigorous exercise ot that kind may do
vest good, and It won't hurt the protected
industries in tbe least. Vett will find tho
factory walls ready whenever he wants to
train his pea sbootor on them.
Nipped In the Hud.
It Is charged that a certain
tho Mt, Carbon school board attompted to
onoo one or tne members with a ?5 bill in
ordor to break a deadlock in thn nlnntlon f
a teacher. The money was refused and tho

Large Puneral.
Tho funoral of the lato Jacob Louokb
took placo yesterday and was largely at
tended. Of Interest to Athletes,
James Robinson, tho athletic tralnor at
Princeton Oollego, Princeton, N. J., says:
"I have foutd it imperative to havo sura
and simple remedies on hand in cat q of
cuts, bruises, strains, sprains, colds, rheu
matism, otc. Shortly after entering upon
my profession, I discovered such a romedy
in Allcock's Porous Plasters. I tiled
other plasters, but found them too harsh
and irritating, Allcock's Porous Plasters
give almost instantaneous relief, and their
strengthening power is remarkable. In
cases of weak back put two plasters on tho
small ol tho back and In a short time you
will be capable of quite severe exercise.
In "sprint" and "distance" races and
jumping, the muselos or tendons in the logs
and feet sometimes weaken. This can in
variably be relieved by cutting the plaster
in narrow strips, so as to give free motion,
and applying on muscles affected."
