Tho West Cherry street sewerago project is in tho samo condition. Tho right of way has been secured, but each one Interested is waiting for the other to move. Ono of tho borough officials said tho other evening that tho hesitating parties aro losing an opportunity. Now is tho time for all such work to bo pushed. Thero aro hundreds of employed men in the town who would only bo too glad to havo work on theso soworago lines now. If tho delay continues much longer tho now idio collieries may resume operations and swallow up this unemployed number. This will make labor scarco and naturally increaso tho scale of wages. To havo all tho work done at once would be of great benefit to tho many unemployed men and a saving to tho projectors. "A stich in time" often saves consump tion.

Tho two teachers who rcccivo tho bighost number of votes and visit tho Columbian Exposition will undoubtedly tako great in tcrcst in tho exhibition of coins of tho olden time. Tho exhibit contains many other in tcresting features, among them a collection of coins that for a numismatist has even greater charms, perhaps, than tho golden coins fresh from tho mint. For hero is tho monoy of many nations, ancient and modern, and tho coins for which peoples in all countries and times havo labored, and schemed and strug gled, tho prico of toil, talent and, perhaps, of beauty, aro laid beforo tho gazo of a genera' ion as auxious as thoy in tho case for wealth, Tho oldest aro those of tho Greek republic, and represent the coins of 33 of Its principal cities, somo dating back as far as 700 B. C. Thcso bear the figures of a tortoise, it being then deemed a sacrilege to imprint a human face on monoy. Tho head of Alexander tho Great was tho first that over graced a coin, It is a singular fact that tho workmanship on theso coins is much moro perfect than on other minted hundreds of years later. In tho collection aro many coins of tho Greek monarchy, whlio thero aro also coins of Ecvnt. of tho timo of Cleopatra, of ntiochus I. of Syria, monoy of tho oldest Persian kings, 120 pieces struck during tho Roman Republic, and thoso of tho Empire from the timo of Julius Ca'sar, B.

OBE'S OBSERVATIONS. What Ho Seen and Hear Durlnj? Ilia Travel. As early as 1893 a company was formed to carry coal from Schuylkill county to Phila delphia. An ark was freighted and taken to that city. It remained for years a heap of black stones, oxcitlng tho curiosity and jeers f the Idle and knowing ones and a monu ment of tho supposed folly of thoso whom it was thought exposed their ignoranco by ttemptlng to apply theso blocks of stono to any useful purpose. Somo timo ago I suggested a system for collecting garbage and hauling it out of town. Tho other day a citizen revived tho subject and said ho thought thcro wore many families iu tho town who would willingly plcdgo themselves to tho amount of $1 a year for Bitch a service Said ho, "Thcro is not a family in town which docs not expend moro than twice this much ovcry year, that is It thoy try at all to keep their yards and gardens clean and then thoy havo tho nuisanco of ash piles under their oyos six months out of ovcry twolvo, and noisome rubbish heaps breeding diseaso and pestilenco overy day in tho year. Thcro isn't any doubt iu tho minds of thoso in a position to form an Intelligent opinion but what this country Ib going to bo isited by cholera this summer, and just as sure as it doos tho citizens of Shenandoah may oxpect its share. There is not a man or woman In tho town who will stand up and say that tho placo Is in a condition to oopo with this dreadful malady, neither will it bo unloss thcro is a better effort put forth to keep back yards and gardens clean of ovcry vestigo of filth or any other garbage.''

Tho now bar which was recently placed in Schojner's saloon on North Main strcot tho innocent cause of trouble that is leading to legal controversies. As tho story goes, Schoener applied for tho bar at tho local P. & R. depot and had it delivered to his placo of business, although ho did not produce bill of lading. When tho New York parties who sold the bar and fixtures askod for pay ment Schooner claimed that tho bar was damaged and In several respects not what he expected it would be. A representative the Now York parties spent tho past few days trying to adjust tho difficulty, but without success, and now tho sellers havo decided to buo tho Philadelphia & Reading Railroad Company for tho prico of tho bar, claiming that It had no right to give Schooner th' goods until ho produced a bill of lading, This action, it is said, will throw tho ro spousibility for collecting payment from Schoener upon tho shoulders of tho railroad company.
