POLITICAL CHIT CHAT.
Tho Kcpiildlcon l.cnguo Is Prospering Tho
Hrsl Ward Democrat.
Tlio Shenandoah Itepuhlicnn League lias
prospered to sucli n degree that nt tho Inst
' meeting it was decided to furniili nml
decornto tho new quarters In the Tltman
building on liwt Centro street so us to mako
thorn im attractive ami comfnrtahle us pnssl
hlo. The apartment! are commodious, yet
cozy, nnil have a frontago on Ccnlic street
that gives ample view of all demmul rat ions
nt anil in the vicinity of tho intersection of
Main anil Centre street. Tho rooms M ill ho
open overy night anil all tho year, so that
when thero is no campaign at haml to
keep the organization active it will
partnko of a social character, ami
thus keep tho mcmhers together for
occasions when Its real objects are opera
tive
This is tlio samo plan upon which the i
Central Republican Club of l'ottsvlllc, and 1
tho Young Men's ItepuMlcan Club of Malm- i
noy City aro conducted, and thero is no
reason why it should not bo foaslblo in this
town, tt Is certainly the only way by which
an organization can get away from tho skirm
ishing aspect in tho eyes of tho people Tho
permanent membership of the League already
embraces many of tho most prominent nml
actlvo Republicans of tho town and new
members nro being added at each meeting.
Tho regular meetings aro held on Friday
evenings.
Tho Democrats of the First ward aro ready
for tho primaries, although they will not bo
held until two or thieo weeks honco. They
seom to bo pratty well Imbued with harmony
nnd tho only fight thus far forecasted is one
on tho nomination for High Constable In
this fight School Director Frank Hanna will
strlvo for tho chairmanship under tlio old
system of holding primaries and if ho is
elected will namo the conferees for James
McKeon. Hanna's contestant will bo James
Shields, and in the event of his success John
Matthews will get tho conferees. As to tho
other otllces tho primary will probable bo an
old-fashioned Democratic lovo feast, as the
party seems well united and equipped for
rolling up a big vote. Timothy O'llricn, one
of the present Councilmon from that ward,
ana Michael .1. Sullivan, who was unsuecess-
fill before tho School Hoard on Thursday
night in the election to lill tho vacancy caused
ny tlio ueatli ot John t . Stanton, and possibly
James O'llearn, will bo tho candidates for
School Directorships, while Daniel Coakley
and Martin Lilly will bo tho Councilmanlc
candidates. At present they havo no opposi
tion. Two School Directors and two Counril
meu are to bo elected in the First ward this
Spring. Matt. Giblon will bo a candidate
for re-election as Constable in the ward and
will have no opposition. The Republicans in
this part of tho town have not shown any
activity, but it is probable that they will put
a ticket in tho Held and that Charles '.
Smith will be tho candidate for a full term in
tho position to which the School Hoard
elected him on Thursday evening ns suc
cessor to tlio late John T. Stanton.

Kicking Against the Meter.
Tho water meter appears to bo the source
of as much complaint from consumers as the
gas meter, at least Mahanoy City people
think so. About tim e months ago the water
company of that town put in use the meter
system among hotels, saloons, butcher shops
and places where the uso of water was con
siderable. Housos were seldom attached.
On Saturday collections wore made, and the
ollicial of tho company met with a very
warm reception. To make matters worse the
company refused to allow tho usual rebate
for prompt payment. A few consumers
saved by the meter system, but the majority
wero presented with bills in omc cases twice
as large as they had picwmisly paid. The
Kaier brewery paysabout tdGOu month, wlillo
Station Agent O'Connor pays 5 0 for what he
used togetfor$ia. Tho saloon-keepers charge
13 cents for a glass of whisky with water and
when a customer asks for water be gets beer
it's cheaper. Tho company kijs the new
system will show where there is leakage or
waste, and cites statistics in icferenco to the
1 new system and w ith refeience to waste. In
Wilmington, Dil., where the supply is in the
hands of tho municipality, the daily supply
was reduced from 8,000,000 to 7,000,000 gal
lons, and then everyone had enough. In Do
I troit the uso by each person wa . reduced from
j i!03 to 1 10 gallons u day, nnd los.-. t ban twenty

Tho Universal Opinion.
It has long luen a matter of comment
among our business people that SlienauiUab
never bad a complete directory of its resi
dents and stands in need of one. Other towns
of one-half tho size of ours havo their own
directory, not onci that aro incorporated
with other towns in which tho measure of
completeness is guaged I mm tho amount of
advertising patronage, but publication-, that
are put out by responsible people, who have
made a boue to hou-c canvass for informa
tion. It may ho well to state here, that in
the so-called directory of Shenandoah and
llalianny City, put out m 1M)J, our city was
given les. pages in the Umk than Mahanoy
City, notwithstanding the fact Khoniuuhiuh

ANOTHER BREALEB BURNED.
l'lro Agnln Hum tlio Slriicluro nt Turk
No. S Colliery.
Tho breaker at l'ark No. 2 colliery, opera
ted by I,cntz, Lilly & Co., was destroyed by
lire Saturday night. Tho structure- was con
structcd but eighteen months ago nnd was
one of tlio most valuable and Improved in tho
region. It was built to take tho place of tho
breaker that was burned .In March, 1801. Tlio
lifts will amount to at least $100,000 and it is
but partly covered by insurance. Seven
slmntlos on the east sldo of tho breaker
occupied by Hungariu families wero also
destroyed, but the loss In this con
nection did not amount to much.
Tho engine and boilerbouses escaped
and a part of the trestle loading
from the breaker is still int.U't. Tho renort
that the flro spread to the slope and burned
the timbers to the bottom Is an exaeecratlnn.
Somo burning timber fell into tho slope, but
prompt work kept them from doing any
serious damage. Tho colliery employed
about G30 men and boys, who .will not bo nblo
to find employment until the breaker enn be
rebuilt, which will take about six months.
Tho liro started at 7:15 Saturday evening
and within half an hour the breaker was en
veloped in flaniQs, which cast a glare that
attracted attention fumi a radius of hovcral
miles. Many reople of this vicinity went tofffito of tho Roman church ; and Lpiphany in
tho sccno by Lob
ligh Valley train and wit-
nessea tlio ravages of the lire. Tlio cm
ployes at the colliery wei" powerless to do
anything to combat tho lire on account of
tho supply of water upon which they He-
ponded to supply lines of hoso being frozen,
but sulUciont water was secured at tho'boilcr
houso to protect tho head of the slope, and
tho engine house.
Tlio origin of tho fire is not known. Thero
wero no stoves or lights In the breaker. Tho
structure was heated throughout by steam,
Thero is a supposition that sonio greasy
clothes left by somo of tho breakor hands
may have been heated and ignited by con
tact with tlio steam pipes.
I.. A. Kiley, of tlio firm of I.cntz, Lily &
Co., yesterday telephoned from Philadelphia
instructing Superintendent Kdtiard Itcese to
begin at onco clearing the grounds for n re-
building of tho breaker.
It is now believed that tho breaker was set
on fire. Some time after all operations were
stopped Saturday night and some time before
tho lire broke out, it is claimed, somo men
passing saw a light in the breaker like tho
llaine of a mining lamp and they wondered
at the time what occasion there was for a
light in the place, but did not investigate.
The only remedy in tho world that will at
onco stop itchiuessof the skin in any part of
the body, that is absolutely safe and never
falling, is Doan's Ointment. Get it from
