FIRE DESTROYS A SLAUGHTER

t i niTr "v A- . u
night Saturday tho firo
bell sent an ahum out
upon tbo dear, cold
air. All tbo companies
wero out with appar
atus In good tlino and
skinning nlong the
streets at as fast n
rato as thoMco covered
streets would permit.
Tho Are was located "at Szymansklo's
slaughter house near tho Cambridge breaker,
below tbo lime kiln. The burned structure
was not of much value, but it contained n
boiler, engine ami chopping unci other
machines valued at several hundred dollars.
Tho building soon succumbed to the flames
nud within n short time tho lights of the
firemen's lanterns and tho burning debris
showed tho upright figures of the boiler,
engine and machines, which retained their
positions, but wero badly damaged by the
flames. Mr. Symanskc places his loss at
about f 1,000. The origin of the ilro is un
known.
uno ol tho results ol tho tire was an acci
dent by which several members of thuColum
bia Hoso Company narrowly escaped losing
their lives.
The firemen took the two-wheeled hose
carriage, known as the "crab," out of tho
hoso houso and started south on Jardin street
with it. At Poplar street they turned east to
go to Main, nud down thatstrcet to the road
that leads past tho slaughter houses.
Poplar street, from Jnrdiu to Main, is very
steep. It is regarded us dangerous for wagons
oven when it is not covered with snow and
ice. fraturday night it was an smooth and
bright as a looking-glass and unfit for pedes
trians, much less vehicles of any weight,
Hut the firemen did not know of its condi
tion until after they turned tho corner from
Jardin street, and then it was too late. Four
or five men had hold of the pole, but their
utmost strength amounted to nothing. Tho
"crab" took speed at the very top of tho hill
and tho speed increased so rapidly that the
men in chargp wero barely able to guide it,
About midway between Jardln street and
Pear alley tho men lost all control of tho
"crab." It took a diagonal course from the
middle of tho road to the pavement
on the south sido and tho next moment went
crashing against tho sido of a house at the
corner. The collision stopped the progress of
the "crab" by badly wrenching tho wheel
and axle on the right side. The polo was also
badly bent. Tho weather boards of tho
house were somewhat damaged. It was
considered a mlraclo that tho men who at
tempted to take tho "crab" down tho hill
were not badly injured or killed. They all
say their escape was' an exceedingly narrow
one. The apparatus was returned to tho hoso
houso. A male coupling of tho hoso is re
ported missiug and the finder is requested to
return it to the company.

Tho rctiirns of the IIukalu's public school
teachers' contest Saturday created great In
tercst and in some, places mingled disappoint
mcnt and surprise. Tho great leaps mado by
some of tho leaders to dectdo which should
secure tho box for Ferguson's theatre to-night
wcie tho objects of special attention.
The positions or tho leaders uro the same
to-day a they wero on Saturday, with one
exception. Miss Stein has again mken
second place and leads Miss Connelly by
thirteen votes.
Th vote polled Saturday was not near ns
high as that of Friday, but compared with
tho average returns of previous days it is
pretty high.
Saturday ciocd tno eighteenth day, or
third week, of the contest. Tho average
number of votes per day for that period was
a fraction over 1,101, which is ample proof
of the popularity tho contest lias met witli
and the great interest tho public has taken in
their favorite teachers.
Those who were left considerably behind
tho past week should not heeomodishcartened.
Thcro is no doubt that tho dashes were du
in a great measuro to tho theatrical box offer.
Still if the lenders should continue to roll ti
big scores, those lower down in the list
should remember tint th6ir friends will have
ample oppcrtunity betwen now and July 1st
The following communication speaks for
itself:
Editor Hkhai.ii : Unclosed please tlnd
coupons for your very opular contest. Ii
Dhows groat business enterprise on your part
and should be appreciated by all the residents
of your town. What a grand treat it will be
for tho scholars when tho teachers return to
have the wonders of the fair described to them
I only wish other journals would take the mat
ter up as you have done. My votes are for Miss
Datrd, who seems lo be the most popular
teacher at present. I hopo tho contest will bo
spirited and cause no 111 feeling among the ills
appointed ones. Yours truly,

A LARGE GATHERING IN THE
REFORMED OHUROH.
REV. O'BOYLE ON YOUNG PEOPLE
Thoy Should Not bo Allowed to
Walk tho Stroots Alono at
Lato Night Hours Some
Suggestions to FarontB.
ONS1DEIIABI.E inter
est has been aruupoil by
Itev, Bobert O'Boyle's
scries of sermons to
young people based
upon personal investi
gation and observation
of local affairs mid last
night tho Trinity Bi.
foimcil church was
packed with people whoso attention had been
attracted by tho announcement that tho
clergyman would pi each on "Social lleform,"
Those who expected to hear a discourse of
tho Dr. Parkhurst order wero disappointed;
hut thoso who wero prepared for good logical
reasoning and clean cut, but appropriately
framed slashes at some of tho social sloughs
of town were satisfied.
Hov. O'Boylo took his text from St. Peter
II; 3; 11. "What maimer of people ought ye
to be lu holy conversation and (iodliue.se.
Rev. O'Boylo graphically described tho
creation. Man was created in God's own
imago, in righteousness and iruo holiuoes.
But man did not retain his original stato of
perfectness. Sin entered his being and
vitiated and blunted all of his God-given
powers and capabilities. The intellect, sen
xihilUy and .. Uod placed in man by the
dlviue act to be developed by him, to bo used
by him for . God's glory. Man, however,
also t social being. Ho is by divine creition
so constituted that he must be associated
with his fellow beings.
Itev. O'Boylo then very vividly p.iintti
man iu his social nature. Tho congregation
was wrapped in closo attention lo what tho
speaker said of the condition of tho social
lifo in our midst. What is the condition o
ociety in our town ? Dots it tend to elevate
tho men and women to a higher plane
Among the yoiing.nion and women, how aro
the affairs? What is tho style of converts
Hon what are tueir deeds? They tiro
certainly not of a high degree. Parents have
a duty licre, to look alter their young sons
and daughters more, than they are apparently
doing now. Young women, alone, ought no
to ho seen on our public streets at ten r
eleven o'clock at night. What is necessary
to briug about this social reform among our
young people is that they surround them
selves with good Influences and the good
people of their community.
The christian church must como to tho ies
cue of these yuung people. Tho church
is their only safety. Itaiso the
standard of morality and you Mill iff sen
tho great immoralities in our tomi. Let the
church lift tho people upon a higher plane,
when there will be a bctttr atmosphere
around the ones whom Christ loves nud for
whom Ho sacrificed his life. Purify tho
homes. Look upon tho marriage relation as
a holy one, "Whom God hath joined to
gether, let no man put asunder."
Itev. O'Boyle loft a strong impre slon
upon his listeners ami before the close of the
service announced that his subject lor noxt
Sunday evening will bo "Our Public Schools."
JUDGE GREEN STRICKEN.
Seized by a Paralytic Stroke Thl -Morn.
lutr at Ills Homo,
Special to the Herald.
Pottsville, Feb. 0. Consternation was
caused at the court house this morning by the
announcement that Judge Green had re
ceived a paralytio stroke.
When the report was reetived Judge
Bcchtel was on the bench anil lawyers were
awaiting the arrival of Judge Green for the
disposal of a number of eases whUh bad
been set down for argument to-d.iy, ainoug
them tho injunction suit in connection with
the proposed Shenandoah public waterworks.
An investigation confirmed the report of
the Judge's illness. It was learned that as
Judge Green was making preparations to
leave his home for the court houee the stroke
oauie upon him. The investigation alse de
veloped much apprehension on the part of '
Judge Green's family and friends. They fear
It may have a fatal termination. J
Judge Green's affliction will greatly erip
ile the butinoss of tho court .nud leave tho
sole remaining Judge overwhelmed with un
disposed caseti. Judge Pershing Is still a
very sick man and is at Atlantic City, ivj lug
to recuperate. It is out of the question te
expect that he will be able to render any
help to Judge Bechtcl, for some time at least,
Inconsequence of Judge Green's tllntss tho
Shenandoah water cose has been continued
indefinitely.

OBE'S OBSERVATIONS.
What lie Sccn nut! Ileum During Ills
Travels.
I picked up a Himleton pnper yesterday
and rend an interesting little piece that bill
tho home reciprocity theory as squarely on
tho head as anything I hare seen In that
connection for some time. The writer says:
"One of the United States Exprcua agent
camo into this office on Wednesday. 'I want
your trndo' he said to tho advertising slicl-
tor after ho had shaken hands. Tho adver
tising man told him ho wanted hie, and m
gestcd thas since there wus opposition and.
competition a littio adveitising would lie
wise Investment.
"But I can't advertise.'
"Why not?'
"Well, you sec, tho express companion, or
rather directors, got together and agreed not
to do certain things nnd one of them was net
to spend any money in advertising.' A-
"The ndvorlMng nun shut him oft", You
have a good deal of gall to como and ask fer
trado from pcoplo whom your directors de
liberately agree not to patronize. We'll do
nothing for you or your company hereafter.
Everything will go by freight or mail. Tho
railroads advertise.' "
Wonders will never cease," soliloquized a
gentleman last evening in ono of tho hotels.
"The- ingenuity of man seems directed solely
to tbo saving of time, money and material,
and if thoy keep on ns they have been for
the past few years wo may expect to mold
whatever wo may wish from practically
nothing, Take, fur instance, tbo rcccut de
velopments iu town. Hero is the steam
heating company offering to heat done as of
buildings from one plant at a great reduction
of cost and here is that big brained merchant,
Ben Severn, drumming up a market for a
mixture called Koal-Spar, which he says will
make one ton of coal do the work of ene and
a half tons. The fust tiling wc know Sever,
aud tho steam heat company will be console
dating and they will bo offering us euoagli,
square yards of heating surface to niako &
Forcpaugh circus tent at less than it cunts to
haul a load of coal from oue of tbo neighbor
ing collieries now. This is indeed a wodr
fully progressive age.
The housekeepers are kicking like Texan
steers because the merchants lilivo nnnouncwl
that the price of soap has gone up. A store
keeper told a lady tho other day that the
rise was caused by a scarcity of fat. A gen
tloaian who stood by suggested that soap
might bo made without fat nud Schuylkill
county people would make a mint of money
out of it. "How?" asked tho mcreliant
eagerly. "By utilizing 'Boh' Hunt's rraek
villo soft clay beds and putting the soap o
the market as 'Henry Clay's Choice."'
Tho merchants of this town are never at a,
loss of some excuso to give their patrons
when tho prices of their goods go up,
A lady went into a dry goods store on Main
street Saturday and was surprised to find that
the prices of linens had gone up several
points. When asked the cause the merchant
answered, " Tho World's Fair, ma'm."
"The World's Fair! What has that tod
with it?"
"Why-why, you seo why, oh ! Yei,
that's it, you s.eo there will be so many
visitors at Chicago next summer all the hotoP)
and boarding houses of that city have bought
up all tbo linen on the markets for sheeting.
Sco? How many yards ?"
Hepresontative Burke, of Lackawanna, oa
Friday introduced a bill strikiug at Hun
garian aud Italian miners. It directs the
creation of exauiiuing hoards in each in
