i OltONKR'S inquests aro
il becoming quite fre
quent. Deputy Coroner
Manloy hold ono last
night anil lias two moro
slated for this week.
Last night ho and his
jury spent about two
hours examining wit
nesses to sco if there
was any grounds tor
the reports of criminal nogligonco in connec
tion with tho death of little Ellio Longofski,
tho Polish child who was burned to death at
her parents residence on West Line street.
A uumbor of witnesses wcro oalled and
Senator Monaghau, tho foreman of tho jury,
subjected oach to a searching inquiry.
Special attontion was directed to the report
that at tho timo tho child was burned the
mother was intoxicated, hut tho testimony
adduced showed that tho roport was false. It
was accounted for by testimony showing that
tho mother was in a neighbor's houso and a
woman was sent out for a can of boor just
about tho timo tho accident occurred.
Sirs. Longofski sworo that sho had taken
no intoxicants that morning and tho other
witnossos sworo they had not seen her drink
anything and sho was perfectly sober, Tho
jury rondcred a verdict of accidental death
and exonerated tho mother from all blamo.
Immediately after the concluiion of the
Longofski inquest Deputy Mauley and his
jury proceeded to Emerick street to viow the
body of StaulslawLansburg, a miner who was
killed at the Suffolk oolliery yesterday after
noon. From the facte gleaned at tho houso it ap-
poars that Lansburg and ono Jaoob Pros'
nofski were at work in a broat of tho cob
liery when a fall of top rock occurred,
Lausburg was instantly killed and Pro
noskl was uailty crushed. Tho latter was
taken to tho Minors' Hospital.
On Thursday ovening Deputy Coroner Man
loy will hold an inquest on tho body of thocliild
found near the Polish cemetery on Saturday.
It is oxpected there will be somo important
and sensational developments in tho case Somo
very important ovidenco has been gleaned
and more will bo secured by tho timo tho in
quest is held.

Tho reason why Allcock's Poroui Plasters
aro popular is that thoy may bo rolled on to

1. Lamo back, sciatica, stiffness or twitch

2. Chest troubles, sueli as pleurisy, pneu

3. Indigestion, dyspepsia, biliousness, kid'
ney complaint.
The success, however, will depend upon the

OBB'S OBSERVATIONS.
What Hp Sens mid Ilmirs During Ills
Travels.
The other day a woman attempted to cross
Main street as a runaway team approached.
Sho turned and went back to tho pavement
with a smile upon her face, but after the
team iassed her sho gave vent to a series of
cries aud seomed about to faint. When a
man's courage gives out It is usually in tho
faco of danger. Tho womau doesn't think to
get frightened until the peril is all over.
Then sho exercises tho prerogatives of her
sex aud cries or faints or Heps, as tho oase
may bo. It's n historic fact that Joan of Arc
wanted to run away and hide every timo sho
won a battle. Fcmlnlno naturo hasn't
changed In this respect in tho past 400 years.
V
Why is It that tho skin game man wishes
to victimize anybody by means of tho ancient
nnd fishy smolliiig dovlco of palming off n
tin box of green piper under the delusion
that It contains $1,500 worth of good counter
feit bank bills, ho always selects a farmer?
A trio of rascals wero recently oaptured with
19 boxes of green paper, cut in shape of bank
bills, and all their other efloete. Among
those effects wero books marked on the out-
file, .Select lists of limners, Is It any
wonder that sharks aud sharpers of all classes
chooso farmers for their prey, when the
average ruralist can bo imposed on by tho
superannuated device of a box of green paper
in lieu of counterfeit money? Of course it
serves a man exactly right if he should lose
all tho mouoy ho has whilo ho Is engaged in
anything so dishonest as trafllc in counterfeit
monoy, but the oxasperatlng part is that any
man is left in this Union who 1 such a
fool.

"I nover was moro firmly convincod of tho
powor of Imagination," said John Finnoy
)ast night, "than I was by something that
happened to me on tho occasion of a recent
visit to a friond in Philadelphia. It had
been an oxtromoly hot day, and when
went to bed at night tho boat seemed almost
insupportable. It soeraed to mo that if I
should open tho door from my room Into the
hall it would make a Httlo circulation and
mako tho air more comfortable; and I felt
safo in doing this because I am an early riser.
and I knew I could get tho door shut before
anybody was stirring in tho morning. So I
opened the door, with the pleasant result
that I had anticipated, aud when I went to
close It In the morning I found that I had
opened, not the door into the hall, but the
door into a closet."
Some of those sharp Philadelphia folks are
playing a now game and are being enriched
at tho oxponso of many Shenandoahites.
Probably other towns In the country are be
ing worked similarly. Ono day last week s
prominent Shenandoah mau rocoived a pack
ago by express marked C. O. D. $3 75 aud
with an oxpress label on it showing that the
packago was shipped from Philadelphia. Tho
merchant's wife was in that city and thinking
of coume that sho had mado, the purchase and
sent tho goods, ho p lid tho money and also
the express charges, laying the package aside.
When the wife loturned he asked her what
was In It. She knew nothing of any package
and the mysterious parcel was opened. It
contained five bottles of patent medicine,
The express company was notified, but it
could do nothing. The package had simply
been shipped from Philadelphia and it had
collected tho mouey for the shipper and had
turned it over to him. Soveral other Shenan
doah people have been fooled tho same way.
Tho Philadelphia firm is an Irresponsible one
aud there is no way to collect the money
after it is once turned over to them. The
best way to do is to find out what is in an ox-
press package heforo paying charges on it.
Fashion is a fickle wench, and It makes but
little difference what sho touches ; it does
not make her any tho moro true. Only last
winter and for several winters past tho
chrysanthemum was tho most fashionablo of
flowers. Of course the truly beautiful among
flowers, like tho rose and tho pansy, are al
ways popular and always will he, but oven
the rose was obsenred and the modest little
violet completely hidden by the Hiring oolors
and tho oabbage like proportions of tho
chrysanthemum. Tho larger the flower, the
better it was liked. But according to a
florist, the chrysanthemum this season will no
longer be fashionable among those well
informed. Like the tulip, it is still more or
less admired, but also like the tulip, it's real
standing is gone. According to this florist,
the chrysanthemum was taken up by
fashion, not because it is especially beautiful,
but because fashion needs mast have some
thing upon whloh to lavish its admiration.
Tho rose will be the flower of fashion this
winter, aud the florists are happy. The
ohrysanthemum is a hardy flower and remains
frosh so long, that florists, while it was
popular among flowers, found that their sales
were materially deoreased. Obe.
Arnica & Oil Liniment is equally good for
man and boast 25 and 50 cents per bottlo.

HE Injunction suits of
tho Qirard Estate and
Thomas Coal Company
against tho borough
occupied the attention
of tho court at Potts
ville all of yesterday
afternoon and were
continued to-day. The
arguments aro on the temporary injunctions
secured to restrain tho borough from con
structing its No.'2 reservoir on the lands of
the Qirard Estate
The application for an injunction by the
Shenandoah Water Company was also to
have beon argued yesterday, but was post
poned on account of tho Illness of counsel.
Tho borough presented to tho court now
bonds of indemnity to take the placeof thoso
presented to tho court previously and which
wore objected to by tho counsel for tho
Qirard Estato and Thomas Coal Company.
Among tho objections made to tho first bonds
wero tho specifications that tho penalty of
tho bonds wcro not sulllcient aud that tho
Borough Council had not authorized their
issuance. The bonds presented yesterday
were issued in pursuance of roholutlons
adopted at tho last meeting of Council and
the penalties havo been increased to $100,000
oach.
Everything indicates that the existing
battles will be prolonged as well as decisive
whatever decisions may be made in the
oases will not be accepted by the parties
as final. But It will be several months
before the ond will be reached. A repre
sentative of tho complainants has said that
if the county court ahonld render an adverse
decision the case will be taken to the supremo
court and some of the borough officials have
made an Intimation to similar offset.
The litigations will be as expensive as
lengthy and tho printers will have a harvest
in printing the papers for presentation of tho
cusu to tho Supreme Court. An Idea of the
stubborn battlo may be formed from tho
statement that the Thomas Coal Company
presented upwards of 160 affidavits to the
court nnd tho borough claimed to have 125.
The affidavits were made by people who
consldored that the construction of the
reservoir and laying of tho pipes wonld
endanger the lives of the men employed in
the Kehley Run colliery and by people who
think otherwise.
Something; Minted.
To the Editor ot tbe Herald.
Mr. Obe, of the IIekald, is a pretty wide'
awake man and few things worthy of atteu
tion escape the jabs of his pungent pen, bnt
there is ono matter which has escaped his
attention and I take tho liberty to remind
him of it. There is a well authenticated
story of an alliance between a young oouplo
who are residents of a place not a thousand
miles from Shenandoah and should the lull
force of light be thrown upon it the ripple of
excitement which will follow will dovelop
into a nlno days wonder. Tho meetings
this couplo aro beginning to bo tho talk
that town now and should tho comments
reach the oars of their immediate friends it
will causo such a rupture as may rend
asunder at least ono family. 1 ho 'young
lady is accomplished, beloved by her friends,
and to havo hor roalia) the full weight of her
actions wonld be received by them as a
blesslug. She has always been considered
sensible and discreet, but of late hor steps
have caused her friends much disappoint'
inent. I do not wish to bo sensational, or
oreate a sensation, but simply aim to sound a
warning which I deem justifiable.

street between Market alley and While ,
street. The force of workmen will be in
creased dally until it numbers in the neigh
borhood of four hundred. It is remarkable
that in tho face of this rapid work there are
some peoplo in town who maintain that the
company is only bluffing the peoplo. If tho
company wanted to mako a bluff it would
not bo obliged to undergo its present expcn&e.
Threo or four men could easily lay a length of
rail. Furthermore, those doubtful Thomases

wards who are in their teens and who make
practice of flirting and gallanting with
drummers and strangers, but of late the cause
for romark seems to havo become mora
notorious than ever. The young girls referred
to are respectably connected and their par

the town, yet they would thank no one who
would take the trouble to inform tUm of the
