TllK Now York Sun volet'i the imtriotk' MMitiiiioiit of the uitmtry in maying tlmt "the U) of the Muiuo increases the need of prompt notion by Congress to ndi to our sumll list of ships of the line." TllK report of Mine Iuspeetor Stein, published in Inst night's II KH ALI), proved interesting to our thou sands of readers. The Inspector's pertinent comment added greatly to the value of the report. TlIKHK is much surprise in Schuyl kill county that our representative has maintained silence during the "Maine" disaster. As a usual thing, lie is the first Jingo that is touched oil when war talk is on tap. TllKriK has never been a time in the history of this country when it could afford to go to war with any foreign nation, except in sulf-defeuse. This was the spirit of the devolution, and President McKinley is following tho example of his illustrious prede cessors. To-day is Washington's ISirthday, but its observance in Shenandoah was coMlined to the closing of the banks and several business places. It is a national holiday that has been less honored, in recent years, than any of our holidays, and it rellects no credit upon the patriotism of our people. Tho day is one. that should be generally observed. A DKCISION was rendered by the Supreme Court of this state at Phila delphia on Tuesday, in which that tribunal held that the common law of contributory negligence which re quires a person to "stop, look and listen" before they cross steam rail roads applies to persons crossing a street ear track on the city streets. This decision will no doubt in the future save the street railway com panies considerable money. TllK Lenten regulations for 181)8 have been issued by Archbishop Hyan, of the archdioce-e of Penn sylvania, and were published in these columns yesterday. In addition to calling tho attention of his people to the various rules of conduct during Lent, promulgated from time to time by the Holy Sea, the Arch bishop recommends to their gener osity the charitable works in which the Catholic church is engaged, and appeals for contributions in behalf of the extension of Christianity in pagan lauds. Thk trial of Kinilo Zola, the famous novelist, continues to attract wide spread attention. He is without doubt the most talked about man in France to-day. He iias made a bold stand as the champion of the con vict Dreyfus, and charges the French authorities, who condemned Dreyfus to a traitor's doom, with all manner of wrong doing. For this Zola is compelled to defend himt-clf in court, and they afford him very little op portunity to do that. Trial by jury in France is a farce. It was expected that the appoint ment of a Naval Ofllcor and Sur veyor of the Port at Philadelphia would be made this week, but from information received from Washing ton it looks like another trying sus pense for tho "faithful" in this county. These appointments will not be made until tlio middle of next month, when tho term of tho present incumbents expire. This was the in formation given out on Saturday by Senators Quay and Penrose, and is received with any tiling but delight by the friends of Maj. Finney. How ever, everything comes to those who wait. THK anthracite coal trade presents little change, says the Ledger. Some what more demand for coal has fol lowed the colder weather of the past week, but it has rather given en couragement for the future than done much to deplete unsold stocks. Tlio cold wayo has extended over most of the country north of tho Potomac and Ohio rivers, and tho hope iu tlio trade is that it will stimulate orders from the Northwest as well as New Entrland. It is unfortunate that tlio coal trade should depend so largely upon tho weather, for tlio publio gen erally do not ugree wltn coal opera tors in the wish for severe cold and storms. The general impression is that radical restriction will be necessary for several months to come tokcup the output down to actual market requirements.

San Francisco, Feb. 22.--Ptewart Miflizles, nn ngent of the Alaska Com mercial company, who has Just return ed from the Klondike region, starting from Dawson City on Jan. 20 and from Skaguny on Feb. 10, reports that the tide of gold hunters that swept Into Canadian territory wben the news of the rich sttlltes In the Klondike region was Ilrst announced is now turning, and those who abandoned their claims on American nnd Chicken creeks are now returning there, accompanied by many others who have been unable to locate claims on Canadian soil. Menzles says that just before he came out claims on Davis. Chicken, Napoleon and Walk er's Fort creeks, which are tributary to Foity Mile creek, showed better re sults than before the rush to the Klon dike, especially those on Chicken cteek. which are from eight to twelve feot deep, averaging to the pan. On American creek, which Is a branch of the i ukon river, the claims are very rhallow, running from $3 to 5 per pan ut a depth from three to four feet. Menzles predicts that the majority of the miners now on the Canadian side Will cross the boundary in the near fu ture, as It is almost Impossible for one iirth of tin -e n'n-udy in the Klondike to locale tl 'ms. and they will be com pelled to : lead out over territory which, Lie int so rich ns the Klon dike, promises belter returns than were formeily i m t cled. lhicrgy all gone?

Addison Porter, arrived here yester day afternoon In the private car of President Frank Thomson, of tho Pennsylvania rallroai. The president was met hy Frank Thomson, Charles C. Harrison, provoBt of tho University of Pennsylvania, and C. Stuart Pat terson, and hy them escorted to the street. Here carriages were entered, nnd the party vas driven to tho resi dence of Mr. Harrison, whose guest the president and Mr. Porter will be dur ing their Btay In the city. The presi dent today delivered an oration at the Washington birthday exercises of tlie University of Pennsylvania at the Academy of Music. The prevalent excitement over Span ish affairs seemed to give added public Interest to the president s visit, and tho big Pennsylvania railroad station and the streets adjacent thereto were crowded with people eager to see and greot the chief magistrate. Two com panies of mounted policemen escorted the carriages to Mr. Harrison's resi dence, which is several hlocks from tho station. Cheering crowds greeted the president along the entire route. In view of the condition of public affairs, every arrangement had been made to keep tho president in touch with nil tho departments at Washing ton, and to keep him fully Informed of developments nt Havana direct tel egraphic communication had been es tnbllshed between Washington and Mr. Harrison's house, and In addition to this a long distance telephone was at the disposal of the president In the event of the necessity of communica tion with Washington. The city authorities propose to exer cise the utmost enre over the president during liln stay here, in order to pro tect him from any possible annoyances. Both the flout nnd rear of Provost Harrison's residence are guarded by policemen, and In all Ills movements while in this city the chief magistrate is closely followed by a cordon of of fleers. BLADDER TROUBLES. The bladder was created for one purpose, namely, a receptacle for the urine, nnd as such it is not liable to any form of disease except by one or two ways. The lirst way is from imperfect action of the kidneys. The second way is from careless local treatment of other diseases. SAMPLE SUNT l'ltUi:. Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys is the chief cause of bladder troubles. It is comforting to know that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp- Root fulfills every wish in quickly curing bladder and urinary troubles. It corrects ina bility to hold urine and scalding or stinging pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to get up many times during tlie night to urinate. The mild and extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best. At drug gists fifty cents and one dollar. You may have a sample bottle and pamphlet, both sent free by mail upon receipt of three two-cent stamps to cover postage on the bottle.
