Even Popular Movements Require United and Hearty Action. ANOTHER POSTPONEMENT! But If Patience and Discretion Count Shenandoah Will Yet Have a Soldiers' Monument. It la contended nnd, no doubt, with some degree of reason, Unit postpone ments are ot great disadvantage to pro jectors. The testimony of many experi enced men Is that n postponement is n forerunner of depreciation, and some times a stepping stone to a failure of public confidence and, consequently, in itself entails a loss. Theoretically, this is accepted by many as an lncontrovertable truth. Whether it is snch,practlcally,ls to be decided after the Soldiers' Monument picnic is held About two months ago the Soldiers' Monument Association decided to hold a picnic to raise money to swell its f and for the erection of a monument to perpetuate the memory and gallant deeds of those who went forth when the country was in a state of unjustifiable revolution and, after four years of battle unequalled by any contest recorded in the annals of any civilized country, succeeded In snatching the cradle, of liberty from the selfish and designing renegades. Mnny smaller towns than Shenandoah (among them Freelnnd) have already stepped to the front ana attested their appreciation of the valor ot tho departed heroes, and why should not Shenandoah, with its 18,000 of liberty protected inhabitants t The committee selected last Labor Day for the picnic; but when the park was sought the date was found engaged. No attempt was made to induce those who had secured the date, the National Club, to relinquish It, for it was known that the organization was an active worker for ood American political government and eservint of some popular encouragement. Thenext step was to pick a sultablesuc ceedlng day, and the committee selected September 20th. Everything went along smoothly. The business men of the town prepared themselves for their annual out ing on that day and volunteered the Man. ument Committee their co-operotlon for the picnic. But, as Pat said when the ten- cent piece went down his throat, "It shllpped." It rained. There was nothing icil iu uiu umuretion 01 cue committee out n postponement. The members of the committm tlion girdled themselves for a big day on the B7tb. All the sub-committees were on deck. There was but one obstacle in the way would tho P. &R. collieries work on tnezitnr Tiie secretary of the general committee was instructed to write and unit out, ana this was what he found : Philadelphia & Heading o.

C. LomEn, General Superintendent. According to exDectatlnn Mr n n Luther was at the Indian Hidge colliery yesterday and was met there In the pres ence of Superintendent John Velth. of Pottsvllle, and Mr. J. J. Bradlgan, divis ion superintendent of the Shenandoah uistrict. xur. jjutuer was the spokesman and he put the situation in striking form: "What Is the best policy fourdays' work with n possibility of five, or three days' work and a plcnlcJ" At the same time Mr. Luther cave as surance that the P. & It. C. & I. Company was in hearty accord with the monument, but he considered that n postponement to Saturday would bemoreagreeabletoboth the company and Its employes. Mr. Luther also stated that should the committee de cide npon the postponement the company would try to chnngelts pay day from Sat urday to the preceding Friday, an advan tage to the picnic. It was a case of clutch in the interest of all concerned and a meeting of the gen eral committee was called. At the meeting last evening tho facts were laid open for uisuusaiuu uuu me arguments, mat 101 lowed were quite Interesting. One argued that the hams were spoil ing. Another said that the dodders Ami other advertising material would go to wmai. wr n bcuuuu nuie. a. tniru nrgueu that "There 1b a tide In nlTnlra nf .,.n., which, taken at the flood. lendR nn tn far. tune. Uu the other hand it was artrtiril tlmt. In the bard times which now o'er slmilnw the country every day's work counts; mnt Huiio vucro was reason to ueuevo that the coal production for rWnhp would be more restricted than tlm uub.iuu iu. ucpbouuici bun wur&mgmen should be allowed to take the flood : that, while the hams in soak might spoil, their value would not equal the amount which the working people would lose in the idleness of one or tn days; but an Inducement to have n pay day on Friday, the day bo foro the picnic, would be detrimental to the business men. It was therefore iln. elded, In order to meet the conditions con ducive to the welfare of all parties con cerned, that the plcnlo for the benefit of the Soldiers' Monument Association of Shenandoah, Penua., be postponed until Thursday, October4th. The oommitteo has given way to what they believe is an argument for the henflt of all classes concerned, and it looks for an appreciation or tne action by a swelled fund for the soldiers' monument. Mem bers of the committee have volunteered to see that there will be no loss on tlm hams. PERSONAL. P. F. Itlng Is diflnff lury duty at Potts 2 Ml. vllle this, week. William II.

Miraculous Escape From Death of a Driver This Morning Dragged by Runaway Horses. Two children playing In tho street nt the corner of White and Oak streets yes terday bad miraculous escapes from fatal Injuries. That one or the other wns not killed Is considered n miracle by the phy sician in attendance. The children were Collier, son of Charles Wnsley, and Edith, daughter of Harry A. Acker, of tho Grand Union Tea Company. They nre about live years of age. They Baw n heavy lumber wagon npproach and one proposed to tho other that they try to maKe tno wueeisoi tno wagon turn taster. Before the driver could realize what the boy and girl Intended they sprang towards the wagon nnd both were knocked down. Ono of thowheelspassed over the little girl's right knee nnd left ankle and over tho boy's right hip and the abdomen. When the children were picked up and carried to their respective homes near the place where the the accident occurred it was feared they were fatally crushed, but a careful examination showed that, while both were badly bruised, neither sustained a fracture or other very serious Injury. The nttendlng physicians sny that older children would have suffered much more serious results. To-day both children were reported ns much Improved. They will be about as usual within a few days. The parents exonerate the driver from all blame. McElhenny's Indies' dining rooms are the cosiest in town. Injured In a Runaway. Joseph Whtteknwicz, a driver e,.,'10j.oa bv A. P.
