Last night was an occasion of much pleasure to tho members of tho Columbia Hoie Company, when they formally received their new combination hose wagon. Tho Columbia boys aro proud of their new no luisition, and the people of Shenandoah aio Justus proud of their fire department. VAK witli Sjxiin scents inoro likely now than nt any other perioil since the Cuban in surrection began. This fact is fully re cognized by President Cleveland, and actito preparations nro afoot to put tho United States in readiness in caso of iminciliato trouble. Tho return of Consul (Scnornl Leo has brought matters to a crisis. His report to tho President of the conditio,! of affair's in Cuba covers many possible phases of tho situation, and much lias been said, tin ollleially, which leaves no room to doubt tho fact that only iiuiiicdi.i'.e Spauhdi success in Cuba, or the most delic.ite diplomatic manip ulation can steer this mm try clear of war.

PUBLIC CHARITIES. Tho amount of money expended by the state in aiding tho diU'crcut public c haiilics readies enormous pioportions. Duilng the last session of the Lcgislatuio tho subject u-i.ipicd tho attention of our ttato law makers, and Its consideration resulted in the uppn.tt luent of u special commission, known asthe lti n liivitigatingt'cmiiiitlee,touuku exhaustive inquiry into the subject and ie nort at the next Mission, which meets in January next. Hon. l!enj.imln K. Focht is j tut . Ii.iiriiian of tho committee and Clarence I' ll'Uh, K-q , of Sliamokin, isalt.ua member.

They have se cured valuable information and will submit an exhaustive report at the next session of the Leglslatute. Mr. I'ochl says tho amount 01 money expended by llio statu In thlsdlie -Hon isu very great item, and thut tho stuti officials are confronted with the indisputable f..ct ti at such rcbiuicos aro being gieutly lu (l.iccd. This condition of affairs raises the question ot direct taxation for the support of these ,,i,hr institutions, or a rigid policy of ei onoiny is necessary. Mr. 1'ocht says: Tut amount of good the hospitals situated throii jbout the state acccinpliih can only ho u mire, tated hy one who has made a study of the mailer, but the complaint has been made tnat tlic iiumberof aliens seeking lellef from the public, charitable institutions in thU sluto lias increased to such tin extent that citlens who certainly have a prior right are being crowded out. The result of tho investigations made by the committee so far certaiuly bear out this asscittou. Of all the indigent and unfortu- mto beings cared for at the state's expense at present over thirty per cent, are alieus. For instance, out of 1,100 patient nt the Danville m .uou-jium 400 aro foreigners. The in- ! i.s ati Warren and Wernersyillo arc ' idly overcrowded from tho satnc cause Mctiiuijf will have to bo dono to remove ' i c mi -t -in but just what it will be I am yet prepared to nay.

'I ho Politicians of llmt Township Nint Considered lloodoos, A correspondent writing to tho Ashland Local, thinks all nominees championed by tint Htitler Township statesmen aro snro of defeat, and givos the following as Ills reasons: "Prior to 'tiS the Ilnmesvillc-llap gang wero hut a wing to Hon. 1). I). Phillips' kite, and did not amount to enough to impress their personality on any party. Since that time, however, they have had a marked Inllticnco on Democratic a 11 all's in tho county. Thwo gentlemen aro wlso enough to confine their own candidacies to Itutler township, whero everything goes. They wisely refrain from aspirations to county offices. They know their record is before the people. They do, however, attach themselves to other persons whose popularity might sccuro their sin cess, and whoso pliability might ensure an easy bci th for ono or moi o of the gang. In all theso efforts, though, they havo only de feated those whom they tiled to elect. "Tho first victim of tho llutler hoc-duo was Tom Traccy, of Shenandoah. Tracy was elected I)irector-of-thc-Poor before the voters nt largo knew ho was connected with "the gang." Ho appointed VA. Kcnney Alms house clerk, and tho identification was coin plelo. Though personally popular, Tracy thereafter lust .strength ; and when his term expired thero was "none so poortodo him re verence." Ho has been unknown in county politics sliue. "Tho next ono was ticorge Wadlinger, L-q , whom they helped to nominate, and who was finally slaughtered at the polls. Then ca;no Hon. John Kyon, defeated in the nomination, , hut who ran as an independent candidate. lie polled only 2000 votes in the county, and lecelved OS of theso at Last llutler, tho home of 'the gang.' "1 he fourth to whom theso barnacles at tached themselves was 'Honest John Kcnney,' of Oiraidville. To such extiemes did they go in the convention for his nomina tion that John Iiergau would nut abide by its decision. Tho result is known. Kcnney was defeated, and knows lie was defeated through his connection with the llutler crowd. Ho Juts .since kept clear of them. "hollowing these came Jack loole, tho stiongest man personally in Schuylkill, lint begot himself mixid up soino how with 'the gang,' and that was enough. With all his political skill and stieugth, the hoodoo was too much for him. He was whipped 04 votes. He lost enough Ucmocialic votes ill llutler alone to defeat him. "After Toole, Hon. Charles King's turn ciimo. King tlid not want to run lor the Senate; but, it is Mild, Miko Carey fairly diagged him into It. King did not need tho honor, nor did ho need tho salary. In fact it is said ho consented to (ill the place only that his mantle might fall on Carey at tho expiration of his term, and that Pats Carley would bo appointed Sergeant-at-Ainis in ll.irilsburg. The convention that nomi nated him at (iirartlville was a decided suc cess, from a llutler point ot view. Hut the followers of Fruncy and Watson did not cn dorso the llutler style. Thev would enjoy ubtise and ritlicule better if diicted against some .'.her peisons than t'n ii own. They struck hick, mid tho llutler hoodoo was upaiii tiiiimplatut. They pirforjncd the same ol!ice, the same year, for your towns man, John Deuce. Deuce and King enjoyed the triii together nnd got so used to salt water that they have had no cl I,.. f,,r straight Democratic whiskey since. "Next Ciiuie the forced nomination of Tom Higgins. All the llutler delegation hut the Itap, wanted to vote for Frank Itugtuii, but Tom Nolan wanted to bo Shcrill' and they had to turn in for Higgins. Higgins was nominated, but the deal killed I. int. Some of Nolan's friends let the secret out in their 7cal to make votes, nnd that settled it. Tho hoodoo was again on top, and neither Higgins nor Nohtn got a job. "Thou came tho convention that called fin tli the last lehuko. This year tho Demo o tits at large had no show In the construction of their ticket. A few choice spirits adopted t Ins llutler method of choosing candidates. Led by tho Itap megactphalon they met in a room in Pottsvillo, inado a slato, and backed it up hy a largo fund then nnd there levied for the purpose, llutler had no candidate of its own, and Owen McN'ally was bartered for the chief clerkship for tho Commissioners olllie, and a deptityshlp under the Prothono- ttuy. Tho county shite was supplemented by Harry Hooker's nomination forthe Assembly. Harry had no office to itward but he hud a large pocket hook and was wlll'ug to empty it. Tho hoodoo, however, attached to all I and now llradigau, Ferguson and Itcckeritre orry that tlic Hutlcr township brand was I I ver a part of their outfit.

T 1 , lu u In nnother portion of his testimony Jonos said that ho saw Ivory two or threo wooks before tho latter loft America In Cody's saloon, In Now York, which, ho further stated, Is lnrgoly froquentod by members ot tho organization. Jones then produced 11 document pur porting to give tho constitution of tho so cloty up to 1893, nnd also tyjtowritton copies of tho constitution and ritual of tho Clan-na-G.tel. Jonos further said that any ono con vlctett of 11 dynnmito outrage was de scribed In tho proccodlngsof tho organiza tion as a "soldier of Ireland." Tho witness afterwards produced a mass of documents giving "camp" Instructions, passwords, signs, etc, aud a copy of tho report of tho secret couvontlonat Chicago, in lb8, In which an Item of expenditures was $.1,500 for "merchandise," which Jonos explained ino int dynamite. Tho cross-examination of Jones did not shako his ovidenco, but counsol for Ivory submitted that It was not it caso to go to trial.

TJIU INl-OIlMi;il JONJJS, Secretary O'LuiighUti Says lfe Is .Deliver ing "Gold llricks" to the Kllgllsh. New York, Nov. 14. Tho uovvs of tho production of tin Informer In tho Ivory caso lu London created qulto n sensation, and was productive of considerable 00111 moilt In Irish circles In this city. Diligent inquiries among prominent Irish Nation alists by a reporter of tho Associated Press failed to ostablish tho Identity of more than ono man named Jones who ever had any connection with Irish mattors in this city. This niuu s iiamo Is Thomas JI. Jones, who was u member of tho Shnm- rock club and nlso ono of the secretaries of tho Amnesty association. Ho was nlso a member of tho Alliance nnd tho Nolly clubs. Tho lust heard of him In this city was about ten weeks ago, when ho left hero telling his acquaintances that ho was going to tho north of Ireland to secure some property which had boon loft to him through tho death of 0, relative C O O. MoLaughlln, socrotnry of tho Irish National alliance, snld thnt he knew Jones us a member of Irish societies. Ho continued: "Whothor Jones is a frlond of Tynan or Kearney I do not know, but I nm satisfied that If ho knows anything of 11 so called dynnmito plot tho wholo thing must have origlnatodln his own brain. To my mind It is very evident that ho Is delivering 'gold bricks to tho Scotland Yard people In re turn for a fat remuneration. This trumped up cvldonco Is only nnother part of tho old worn out scheme of Scotland Ynrd when Its slouths want to secure tho conviction of any Irishmen who may bo unfortunate enough to full into their hands." Sir. bt. John Gnffney, whoso iinmo was montloned by Jonos In htsevltlonco, called nt tho ollico of tho Associated Press last night, and was very lndlgnnutnt tho men tion of his nitino by tho informer. Mr, Gnffney snld! "I wont to Chicago In com pany with Mr. Bolaud, and It I mot Jones ut tho depot I was not nvvare of It, ns thero were moro tlitin 11 thousand porsons thero nt tho time.
