NEWS AND COMMENT MIXED
A Jnpnnoso Lady Pnys a Visit to tho
Xown-Tlio First Ever Seen
Hero Euirnired lu Mis.
slonury Work.
Martin V. Helsenbergcr, the owner
of tho southeast corner of the re
cently burned district, yesterday made
a move towards rebuilding. A gatig
of men have started to tear down tho
stone foundation walls that withstood tho
ravages of tho lire. Tue new buildings
will be constructed of brick aud be three
stories high. Brick buildings give a more
substantial appearance to a town, com
mand better rents anil, of course, are much
less liable to destruction In case of ilro
than frame structures, so that they nre
more acceptable to both the public aud tho
owner.
Harrlsburg has followed In tho footsteps
of Shenandoah by dropping out of the State
League of base ball clubs, and for a like
roason Inability to pay the salaries of
players. Both towns take great delight in
the national sport, but this year the clubs
failed to fall into the hands of right mana
gers. Perhaps they will be heard of with
better success next year, although it is
doubtful that Shenandoah will have a club
iu any other than a local league again. Tho
towu has many people who will pay a
league admission fee, but they are not
sutllcient iu number to make up guarantees
such as are required by the State League.
Fifteen cents is ns much as most of the
people who wish to pay care about putting
through tho ticket window at tho
gate and the experience of the past
two seasons showed conclusively that a
great majority of the base ball enthusiasts
are opposed to paying any admission fee.
When homebody devises a plan by which
fence jumping and roosting can be
abolished the prospects of the local base
ball affairs will become brighter. Until
that time it is doubtful that any manage
ment will summon enough courage to give
the people league ball. Something besides
Watchers is required. The number of
special police required to successfully cope
with the evil would eat up nearly all the
gate receipts.
On Thursday Shenandoah was for the
first time visited by a female representative
of Japan. The lady was Miss Yoshldal, a
Japanese bible woman. She was lu attend
ance at a meeting of tho Women's Mission
ary Society connected with tho Schuylkill
Classls of the German Reformed church
and made an address there iu excellent
English. Like all mining towns, Shenan
doah has within its limits representatives
of scores of different nationalities, but the
Japanese are not amonc them and no
Japanese woman ever visited the town
until Miss Yoshldal came. Japanese men
have frequently visited the town with
circuses and theatrical companies. A
Chinese, woman has never visited Shenan
doah, but they are so scarce iu this country
that this fact Is not surprising.

THOUGHTS OF THE MOMENT.
Torsoly Parnernplied by tlio Pen nnd
l'ouull Men.
It is cheaper for a younc man to rida in
the street cars all evening than to stroll.
Electricity does not permit stommcre at ice
cream saloons or even tho reading of a sigu
easy.
Tho worst punishment vou can inflict tn
a boy or girl for infraction of home or
school rules, is to deny them the privilege
of going to tho circus.
There is a sad warning to those who nre
1 the habit of moistening envelope flaps
ith their tougues iu the deith of n
Chicago man who was fatally poisoned by
mis means, tie cut bis tongue slightly in
drawing tho flap across his toncuo aud iu
ono week was a dead man. This is the
only case of the kind on record, but it is a
great wonder that there are not others.
Tho 118th anniversary of the adontion nf
the stars aud stripes by the Continental
Congress was not observed by many of our
townspeople. As yet, Flag Day is not very
generally observed throughout the country,
but there Is reason to believe that, as years
go by It will become more and more pop
ular with the people as an occasion of pub
lic rejoicing.
It is said that Frank Siddall. the trreat.
