"mm 0-DAY tho town was under a deep spoil of aud ouo of llioso who defied tho heat and indulged In discussions, tho main subject of which was tlie brewery project sprung by Mr. J. J. Frnnoy upon tho Council men last evening. Most of the Councilmen were assembled near tho corner of Centre and Main stroets last evening discussing tho progress of street paving and tho contem plated extension of tho work, when Mr, Fratioy approached and frankly stated that If tho Borough Council would agree to glvo a brewing company frco water for a term of years ho would havo in town within a fow days the representatives of eomo capitalists who would bo willing to Invest $140,000 in tho establishment of a brewery In this town. All agreed that it would bo an excellent thing to havo an establishment requiring a ucking of $110,000 in our midst, but after some of tho Councilmen entered into details many doubts aroso. Onoof tho results of the discussion is that to keep a brewery supplied with a forco of water sufficient for nil tho requirements of such an establishment would monopolize ono sixth tho amount of water that could bo raised by tho proposed pumping station por day. Ono Councilman facetiously remarked that perhaps it would bo better to havo tho now water works completed and then let the brewery projectors buy tho old water works, However, the project is still in its infancy and there Is no doubt that after a consiilera tlon of all points on both sides thero will be au opening for it. A Wonderful Machine. There is no doubt that man is a fino me chanism, but llko overy other machine he wears out by friction. It la said that ho 'isf born again overy two or threo years. Ilii body is virtually re-mado from food. To rotard tills making over is radically wrong, as a man loses so much vitality in tho do layed process that it takes a long timo to recuperate. Tho process of making anew Is so accelerated by purging with Brandrcth's Pills that a new man, as it wero, may bo mado in two or threo months, and tho change in tho mechanism is such that the worn out part is replaced by tho now without tho usual running down of the entire ma chine. You don't havo to slop for repairs. Purge away with Brandrcth's Pills the old, diseased and worn out body. They aro purely vegetable, absolutely harmless, and safe to take at any timo. The New School Work on tho foundation for thonow school building on West street isprogressing rapidly. This morning a corps of stono masons, under John Senior, commenced work for the P. & R. company.

Martin, whoso portrait appears above, is ono of tho most popular Democrats and successful business men in Schuylkill county. Ho is known from ono ond of the county to tho other, and his frankness and gonerosity aro highly commended. Mr. Martin first saw the light of day In tho city of Beading, and will bo forty-six years of ago tho It) ill of next November, lie was left an orphan at tho ago of elevon years, and tho hustling qualities which have placed him among Schuylkill's leading business men at onco assorted themselves. lie learned the milling trade, at which ho worked for some timo, aftorward becoming tho engineer of a portable saw mill. This last occupation brought him to tho western end of tho county j ust twenty-one years ago, and after following it for two years he was persuaded to beconio a clerk in tbo general storo of Gcinemer & Sherman, at I'incgrove. Sorving this firm with fidelity and trust for two years, Mr. Martin decided to embark iu tho mercantile business himself, und tho result of the decision was tho organi zation of tho firm of Martin & Paine. This firm did a largo business for three years and disposed of tho entire- plant at a profit. Since which timo and up to Mr. Martlu's appoint merit as warden of the county prison ho has been In business for himself iu I'incgrove. In fact Mr. Martin's business was so valuablo that ho did not glvo it up upon his appoint ment, but still carries it on, and ho is rated as ono ef the princely merchants of tho west ond. Mr. Martin comcsfroni good old Democratic stock, bis grandfather and undo both having served as high sherill's of Berks county. In announcing himself forCounty Commissioner ho does so at the solicitation of his many friends, and his popularity and wldo ac quaintance will have great weight in tho ap proaching convention. The nomination is generally considered to bo within his reach, and unless something unforsecn occurs ho will be one of our noxt commissioners. In speaking of his candidacy the Pottsvllle Chronicle says: John P. Martlu, of Pine grove, Is a candidate for tho ofilco of County Commissioner, Threo years ago ho came within a fow votes of receiving the nomina tion on tho first ballot, notwithstanding the fact, that S. O. DoTurk, tho present inoum bent, had filled tho ofilco tho thioo years previous. Mr, Martin is at present tho efficient warden of tho Schuylkill county prison and Is a man of rare executive ability. Previous to taking charge of the prison he was engaged iu tho mercantile business at Pinegrove. Ho has introduced many new reforms at the jail and his administration of affairs iu and around tho prison, lwsnuiuipod him as a business man and ouo who runs tho institution on business principles. Mr. Martin has boen a resident of Pinegrove for twenty-two years, and his friends iu tbo west end are legion. Ho is au excellent scholar, has received a practical training in business matters, and If elected to the ofilco for which he aspires will fill it with credit, and at tho same time study the iutoicatof the taxpayers.

This very interesting question was discussed by a party of gentle men last evening who had been speculating winners of tho World's iu tills contest. This question cannot bo answerod very accurately because fioro aro other sources of revenue which depend somewhat upon tho attendance but which cannot as yot bo only estimated. Still, this Inquiry about the financial success of tho enterprise is an Interesting ono, and speculation upon it is a convenient means of reaching a bettor appreciaton of the magni tude of tho operation. In round figures, which aro within a hun dred thousand dollars of the actual sum, tho cost of tho fair to tho opoulng day was twenty millions of dollats. This enormous Bum is mora than twico as much as was spent lor tho last Paris exposition, and there tho govern ment of Franco was behind tho enterprise. Twenty millions probably reaches the high water mark in tho outlay for international expositions. It may bo doubtful if tho coming century will see a parallel to this affair in magnitudo or costliness. This fair is not too big, but it is big enough. Futuro fair-builders will probably devote their energies to making more perfect but not more vast. How was all this enormous sum raised? Principally by tho citizens of Chicago. In tho first place, thoy subscribed nearly six millions' of dollars of stock in tho exposition company, and havo paid over in cash tnercou $3,751,173. Then tho city of Chicago as a municipal corporation Issued bond3 and devotod tho proceeds. to the pur chase of $5,000,000 of stock. At first it was thought this would be enough, or nearly enough, to build tho fair. But it proved to bo only half enough. Tho exposition issued fivo millions of its own bouds aud sold them at par. This gavo a total of sixteen millions. Congress voted five millions of souvculr half dollars in aid of tho fair, and then took away a half million dollars' worth of them on a quibble. Out of tho remainiug two millions of dollars worth tho management realized, by virtue of premiums, vory nearly $2,500,000. ThUB the total receipts were brought up to nearly eighteen and a half millions. Interest and miscellaneous receipts swelled to the grand total of $19,000,000. Looked at as a vast financial operation this fair is almost as fascinating as from any other point of viow, twenty millions to open tho gates, threo millions more will bo needed to pay expenses till tho end of tho six months, therefore $23,000,000 is to bo approximately tho total cost of the World's Columbian Exposition. Is there any chance that this enormous sum of money can bo earned by the gates and the concessions? At tho close of tho fair it is estimated tho salvage from tho buildings and grouuds will net a million dollars. Still twenty-two millions to raise. What do you think of their chancos?

Jardln street, botwoen Oak and Coal, seems to bo a favored spot for theso spoony couples, aud sometimes, especially Sunday evenings that thoroughfare is almost Impassablo. It seems that tho pollco aro unable to abate this Innocent annoyanco to the inhabitants living in tho locality abovo mentioned. If theso young folks knew how much amusement thoy furnish for tho residents living on tho dark streets they would say all their swcot farewells at the fair damsel's door.

So Shenandoah is to havo an old-fashion Fourth. Let tho great American eagle scream, aud tho band play 1 Wo can distance tho county in celebrating, no matter what the ovent may bo. Let us all put our shoulders to tho wheel, and mako tho cele bration of tho Fourth this year a red-letter ono. Shenandoah is a base ball town, without doubt. With a winning team, such aa we now havo, the games will bo well patronized. Wouldn't wo llko to tackle that gilt-edged team that hails from tho county seat, and that is afraid to leave their own stamping ground ; and, in fact, are compelled to ask tho assistance of our crack pitcher to win games for them. Tho gall of some people is boyond finding out. Tho peoplo of this town will havo a chance to see Walter L. Main's circus this season after all. Tho shows will be hero next Mon day. Two advance care have been in town during the past weok and tho agents re ported that Main was positively on the road again for tho season. One of them said that the railroad wreck that crippled the shows in the wostom part of the state a few weeks ago will cost the Pennsylvania Railroad Com pany between $100,000 and $150,000. As the paving of tho west side of M3in street has progressed so far as to make the road ready for the Belgian blocks it is fair to presume that tho Borough Council has do cidod to run the pipes of the public water works through the alleys. It would bo a good Idea.for the Council to Insist that all pipes shall be laid in tho alleys hereafter. If the three electric railway companies appear before Council to night and ask for rights of way a lively session may be ex pected. It is hoped that in this case tho usual result of too much of a good thing will not be realized. June is the month of weddings and our hustline town has its share of tliem. Thnm was enough rico scattered on tho Lehigh vauey piattorm to do a good sized family tor a year. No class of peonlo aro wlshin? moro for the construction of a Sbenandoah-Mahanoy city line of electric railway than the patrons of base ball games. When that line is com pleted it will prove a mint for tke oneratora and mako the trotting park a paying invest ment. If tho road is completed bv nnxt spring tho Shenandoah basa ball club will surely be in one of tho big leagues next year ana we will have from 75 to 100 games here noxt season. Tho desire which the Polish, Hungarian and Lithuanians exhibit for engaging in the saloon business here is certainly remarkable. The argument that there is danger of having too many saloons and causing a loss to the investors has no weight with them. They are only too anxious to get a place and pay almost lucrcdible prices for them, assuming all risks. One. USE DANA'S SARSAPARILLA ,IT8 "THE KIND THAT CUBES." The ISdltorlal Excursion.
