Huran, resid ing at lloruosvlllc, ouo of tho patches located between Qlrardvlllc and Ashland, has be como a hero by reason of his grit and prcsenco of mind, which resulted in hla saving tho lives of two people At Ilomosvillo the lino of tho Schuylkill Trac tion Company's track is close to a high embankment and between tho track and tho slopo of another high embankment is tho roadway used by ordinary vehicles. At ouo point of this road thcro is a sharp' curve which hides from view tho approaching cars and it is always necessary to oxorciso groat precaution when driving there. lloran was lounging near this dangorous point when ho observed a carrlago containing a young man and a fcinalo escort approaching from tho oast. Tho carriage was drawn by a team of spirited horses, but tho young man scemod ablo to keep them under control ; but just as the carriage ncared Horau an olcctrle car swept around tho curvo from tho west. Its sudden appearanco frightened tho horso3 and they commonced to plungo about wildly, whilo tho motor man shut oft" tho current and applied the brakes to stop tho car. The frightened horses continued plunging about, tho screams of tho couplo in tho carriage and tho passengers on tho electric car serving to niako them moro nervous and unmanageable Tho carrlago was pulled to tho brink of tho outer embankment and tho horses seemed about to pluugo sidoways over it, when lloran Bpraugo forward and, grabbing tho bridio of tho horse noarest tho dangorous slopo, suc ceeded by a sudden and poworful jerk in swinging tho toam to tho center of tho road. Aftor that several of tho car passengers gave their assistance and rescued tho couplo from tho carriago. The horsos were also quieted and taken from the placo. Tiio young woman and her escort woro completely overcomo by their experience, Both wept copiously and between spasms of grief scolded each other. Tho youug man was told ho didn't know how to drive and ho In turn charged tho young woman with first frightening tho horsos by her screaming. Tho narrow ocapo seemed to havo inado tho oouplo hysterical and they forgot to thank tbo ono who saved them. After recovering from tho shock tho couplo continued their journoy to Ashland without disclosing their identity and no ono on tho sceno know them, lloran is but sixteen years of age. llad ho not acted as promptly as ho did tho young couple, horses and carriago would havo been precipitated down a steep embankment hav itig a slopo of about two hundred feet.

Over twenty years ago tho Hi:rvli pre dicted that Shenandoah would brcomo tho second Scranton and repeatedly sinco then lias it pointed out moans by which tho rapidly . Increasing population could bo af forded moro breathing space and room for largor and moro convenient placos of abode. Yesterday afternoon a prominent business man, in discussing tho prosout condition and prospects of tho town unfolded, a schetno which is Identical with that which tho Hkkald has so often agitated. It hinges upon a call upon tho Catawissa Valloy for torritory. Tho visitor said : "This town has grown to Its limits and still tho population incrensos, so something must bo dono soon to give tho pcoplo decent dwellings at a rato something near tho means of a worklngman. Tho demands for dwellings now havo run rents up to enormous figures and it is dlfll cult for a miner to secure a sultablo house. Thcro is no more room In tho town and tho suburban districts must bo looked to, and tho most available Bites are in tho Catawissa Valley. Tho coal yet unmlncd In this vicinity, according to tho best informed and most rollablo authorities, is sulllciont to keep all placos in full blast for at least thirty years, aud somo predict that there is moro coal than the rising generation will be nblo to mine. This means that Shenandoah's life Is by no moaus on tho decline aud such a Held must necessarily havo oven a much greater population than the present ono. Why, thon, would it not pay to invest In laud and erect buildings In the suburb men tioned? An electric road could bo tho means of communication, there is an abund anco of water in tho valley, and for a healthy place thero is no better in tho stato of Pennsylvania: I know of scores of minors who would not hesitate an Instant to tako up a residence in tho valley If thoy could bo assured of somo moans of convoyanco to and from that district. I spoko of this project to a miner tho other night and ho at first said that tho plan would not bo a foasiblo onq becauso men working at Yatosvlllo and Ellengowan could not livo so far away fr m the collieries, but when I called his attention to tho proposed oxtonsion of tho olectric linos eastward and tho possibility of constructing a lino over tho mountain ho said that in such a light ho could not seo why tho plan should fail of success. I think if some of our pro minent men would put their heads together and try to ascertain tho cost of tho construc tion of an electric lino to the valloy tho suburban idea would soon tako a big boom and, any ono can readily boo that tho road would coin monoy from tho ploasuro seekers during tho summer months."

Tho concert given by tho Welsh Ladies Choir of Cardilf, Wales, in Kaler's opera house, Mahanoy City, on Monday ovcnlug last, was a raro musical event seldom equallod. Tho choir Is composed of thirty Indies trained to sing In the competitions in tho World's Fair Eisteddfod, whoro they capturod tho $1,000 prize and where several of tho individual members also won prizes. Tho choir Is under tho leadership of Mrs. Clara Novello Davios, and is something unique in tho musical lino, thcro being no male voices in it. Their rendition of tho "March of the Men of Harlech" and "Bolls of Aberdovcy" was very fine, but the solos and duetts wero the star numbers on tho program eliciting such rapturous applause that did not subside each case until an eii'oro was given. Every soloist showed plainly the result of excollont culturo of voices of raro swoetnesi aud power and it Is greatly to bo regretted that the timo of their departure for home Is so closo as to prevent their giving a concert in Shen indoah.

Aftor somo oxchango of vlows Mr. Torbert said ho thought $15,000 a fair prico for tho land which had boon takon and tho Council men told him thit tho fljiuro was too high. Mr. Torbert then asked tho Councilincn to stato a figure, but thoy said thoy wero tho buyers and not tho sellers, and tho matter was ovcntually droppod. M. P. Qulnn, ono of tho contractors having tho wator works in chargo, was aleo at tho mooting. Ho said that Mr. Torbert had in terfered with his men when thoy attempted to tako some clay for puddling tho ditch of tho rosorvolr. Mr. Torbert claimed that the clay was being taken from laud which had not been claimed by tho borough, but tho men continued taking the clay after Mr. Torbert bad been notified thjt tho borough had filod a bond of indemnity at Pottsvillo. Boforo adjourning Council instructed Con tractor Qulnn to order tho pipe for tho water works and get ready to run them through tho town as soon as thoy arrive. It is tho Intention of Council to push this part of tho work to completion pending tho dis position of tho injunction suits which wero started last week. Tho Councllmen say that tho suits arc only instituted fur dolay and embarrassment aud will ultimately result in a dofoat for those who havo instituted them. By tho time the cases aro finally disposed of thoplpo will be laid through tho town, tho reservoir in tho valloy will ho completed, the pump3 will ho in position and nothing will bo required but tho completion of reservoir No. 2 to put the works in operation. Speaking of Mr. Torbert's price to-day ono of tho Councllmen said that when the ox Senator gets down below $2,000 Council will bog in to consider tho matter.

A Itopiihllpan h niivs .S.iuci for tho OuoV' 151c Editou HKlt.vt.D:-Whilo in Shenandoah last evening I picked up a copy of tho ItKitAM) which contalnod an interview ono of tho reporters of that papor had with a Tamaqua man. Tho sentiments oxprossral In that lcttor, so far as thoy referred to Air. Ilicrstoiu, tho Bepuhllcau candidate for l!o cordor, meet miuo exactly. As almost every body In this region knows, Ashland has no Polish or Lithuanian residents and it Is here, as woll as other places in this county having no residents of tho nationalities named, that tho Democratic candidate and workers aro doing tholr utmost to poison tho minds of Itcpublicans against Mr. Bierstcin, on tho ground that ho is a "Polandcr." From what I havo been ablo to loam tills narrow-minded s.hcmo is not boariug much fruit. Tho intelligent Bepublloans nrguo that prior to tho time Mr. Ulersteiu was placed upon tho Kepublican ticket tho Democrats catered to tho Poles and Lithuanians most assiduously, and ovon now they do not daro to let it beeomo known lu places whoro those people rosido that they oppose the nomination froia a standpoint of nationality. Tho Democrats havo really thrown themselves upon their knees In begging tho supportof tho Polos and Lithuanians at the elections of the pst, and if it has been good tnsto in tho past for the, politicians to thus humble themselves before thoso people, why is it not good taste forthoiu to bo honored with an office. But let mo go a peg higher nnd say that a majority of tho Polos and Lithuanians in this county wero mado citizens through the diligonco of tho Democrats, who at tho timo of the nattiiali zatlou oagorly stepped forward and declared that they believed tho applicants wero tho making of good citizons aud would support tho constitution of tho United Statos, as woll as tho constitution of Pennsylvania. It is too lato for tho Democrats to go back on those solemn recommenda tions. Tho Polos and Lithuanians have had their oyos oponod. They now know that tho Democrats vouched for them and oaused them to bo mado citizens only because thoy wanted to uso them at tho polls. If thoso Polos and Lithuanians woro worthy of tho sacred cloak of American citizenship they are certainly worthy of holding office under tbosuUarago of the people My bus! nosi requires me to make frequent visits to the Polos nnd Lithuanians engaged in busi ness in your town and other places, and my oxperionco hut taught mo that tho ideas I had of these nationalities sprung from ob servation of aud contact with the crudo element I can iianio at least twenty Polish and Lithuanian residents of Shenandoah who aro in all respects tho peers of at loast two men who aro now holding proniinoutpolitioal offices in this couuty,' and should I bring thoso men forward I would at the same timo pro duce tho strongest kind of endorsements which havo been given them in tho post by somo of the most promiueut, influential and respected Democratic residents of your town, and tho vory twenty men I speak of I know are now strong adherents to the cause of Mr. Biorstein, the Kepublican candidate for litoor der. Let the Kepublican voters of thisoounty give tills matter serious and ample thought beforo election day. In the past the Demo crats have tried to appoaso tho appetites of tho Polos and Llthuaulans who have been ambitions for public office by tendering them, ward assessorshlps, justiceships and constablo ships, and in one or two instances a notary ship. Tho Democrats have offered them no more not because they believo the Polos and Lithuanians are not competent to fill higher offlies but becauso thoy, the Democrats, havo been playing the dog in tho manger and havo only been offering pap to keep them selves In office. This is tho Democratie policy to day. They aro trying to blind tho Republicans with arguments that it would bo un-Aniori-can to elect Mr. Bierstcin and that the sal vation of this county lies in the tubjection of tho Polish and Lithuanian political ambition. Tho truth is the Democrats want to detract support from Mr. Bierstcin, and at the proper time before tho election, when they have learned sufficient to convince them that they have succeeded in their purpo-e, they will hasten to the Polish and Lithuanian pcoplo and tell them that the Republicans are cutting Bierstein. What will be the result t The Poles and Lithuanians, under promises of support for Bierstein, may trade with their real enemies, the thoughtless Repub licans, under false professions of patriotism, may flook to the support of the Democratic nominee for Recorder, and tin whole Republican ticket will go under with Blerateta, aud as usuil the DemoeraU will again hold all the offices and ohuokle ns they think of haw easily the "Bepube" and "Hum" can be duped.
