BY STRIPPING PROTOS The Men Kngngcil In KxtlngiiMiing the l'liiiiiM buy Hiiro nil Ahiiiiilauce r Anthracite Cmil Which Will lie Mined, The Full Details. T lias often been re marked that somo of tho greatest discoveries and achievements by man have been mado or acquired purely by acci dent and tho truth of tho oxproesion has been attested by tlio results of tho flro near tho Boston Hun colliery. For sovoral years thoro havo been in oxistonco a string of mine breachoa extending 2,000 feet or moro west of tho colliorios which havo been looked upon merely as laudmarks left by the money makor of times gouo bye. Suddenly theso old mlno breaches sprung into promluenco and for somo timo hereafter they may rank among tho most Important of tho P. & R. C. & I. Co.'s operations. About a week ago tho coal In one of tho breaches was discovered on flro and to pre vent any possiblo extension of tho flames to parts of tho Boston Run or Draper collieries now in operation largo forces of lnon from both places wore put to work with drills' picks and sections of hoso. Somo burning material from mountain Arcs sot flro to wood and othor debris and when tho flro-flghting forces got to work thoy found that tho flames had already mado good hoadway into a pillar between two of thoold broaches. It was while attacking tho burning pillars that tho P. & R. ottlcials discovered that they would bo repaid many hundred times for tho trouble and expense tho comparatively in- significant flro had caused them in guarding tho neighboring workings. They knew thoro was coil In tho old breaches, but not until tho flro workers got to work did they know that tho places form a nuclous for ono of tho richest strippings ovor opened in this region. General Manager H. O. Luther, Suporluten dent John Veitli and Mine Inspo;tor William Stoln spout a greater part of yoster- day at tho burning breach and arrived at tho conclusion that within a day or two tho flro In tho burning pillar will ba extinguished. At the Biino time Mossrs. Luther and Vcith decided to havo corps of engineers bo- gin work at once making measurements and estimates forstrippings which would cover tho wholo lino of breaches a longth of from 2,000 to 3,000 foet. They (ay tho work will bring out thousands of tons of most excellent coal. OSE DANA'S SAB3APARILLA., its " THE KIND THAT CORES". SOHUYLiKILL MINERS. Many of Them Are Superintendents and Hostes.

LL tho members at tended tho meeting of tho Board of Health In tho Council Chamber last night and from the nctlvo part thoy took In tho proceedings it was quite ovideut that they aro giving strict attention to their duties between meetings. Secretary Soaulan read his report on dls- oasos in which it was shown that sinco the meeting of tho board on September 22ud sixteen new casos of typhoid fover aud two cases of scarlatina have boen reported. Tho total number of typhoid fover cases reported to dato is twenty-six of vihich only ono has proved fatal. Dr. Spalding, tho president of tho Board, stated that typhoid fover is now epidemic in tho town, but ho still held to tho opinion cx- prassed at tho last meeting, i. e., that the dlscaso is not contagious, but infectious. Somo peoplo will tako tho dlscaso by slightest contact with tho victims, while othors can sleep in tho samo bed with tho victims aud will not take it. It depends upon tiio systems 01 mo peoplo. x lie germs of thodiseaso aro not carried about in tho clothing. Tho doctor slid that thus; far the physicians havo not been able to decide what has caused tho spread of tho dlsoaso, but they loin to the opinion that defectlvo sowerago is tho main cause. A report from Dr. Straub stated that Charles Laukas was alllicted with typhoid fever and refused to employ a physician It also stated that there aro too many peoplo in the same room with tho victim aud tho case should bo isolated. Health Ollloor Miles stated that ho had given attention to tho case and loamod that tho victim is a member of St. Casimer Society, tho secretary of which had given assurance that Laukns will be cared for. Mr. Malono statod that ho felt confident that thero aro moro cases of typhoid fever in town than aro reported to the board, in fact ho named a oaso and a search of tho records showed that tho attending physician has mado no report on it. Tlio ponaltyj for this neglect is from $10 to $100 for each case, but as tho board had not legally adopted its rules und regulations and tho Borough Council had not passed upon them Borough Solicitor Pomcroy thought it would not bo safo to attompt to enforce any penalties just now. Later in tho evening tho rules were pre sented by the committee. Thoy wore read and npproved, and then ordered for; preecnta- tation at tho Borough Council meeting to morrow night, A committee from tho Board of Health will bo presented to urge their ini mediate adoption aud after that everybody who disregards or violates nuy rule of tho Board will bo held strictly accountable to tho law. Tho commlttco on nuisances reported a bin on South Plum alloy in filthy condition and tho board adopted a resolution to tho effect that the Health Officer notify the Chief Burgoss to have Messrs. James Grant, M. H Burke and Henry Wioderhold clean out the bin and abate tho nuisanco and In case they fall to comply with tho notico suits be entered against them. A copy of the resolution will bo presented to the Borough Council at Its meeting to-morrow night. FIGHTING A TRANSFER. Llquirniid liter Agents Say They Are Uelraudeil. Application was made yesterday by Will lam Zeninskl for tho transfer of a saloon license held by Thomas Paulukonis, of the First ward. The application was made be' forejudge Bechtel by J. W. WhltehouM, Eq., and M. M. Burko, Esq., as counsel for the Wholesale Beer & Liquor Dealers' As sociation, made objection. Judgo Beohtel fixed next Monday for argument on tho ap plication and objections. It is supposed that the objections aro made because Paulukonis, who now holds the license, is Indebted to wholesale beer aud liquor dealers and the association concluded to prevent tho transfer until such time as tho indebtedness is satisfied. It Is a lact that the wholesale dealers of this town have been suffeilng by reason of transfers of lioenses. They olatui that in almost every instance of a transfer the saloon keeper had previously run heavily in debt aud thou asked for the transfer in order to avoid their obligations. It seems tho league has decided to put a stop to this prac tice and hopes to invoke the aid of the lleentie court lu bringing about the result. A Ills llrrt.
