POTTSVILLE POSTMASTER.
Hon. n. U. Hehrltik, the Delentetl Legts
lator, Hiiiet For the Position,
Wotd was received in Pottsvlllo yesterday
fternoon, from Cougressinan Uiuintu, to the
ll'ect that ho had sent in the name of Hon.
(1. C. Sclirlnk as postmaster of Pottsviile, to
succeed Louis StoHrcgmi, the present incum
bent. It had been genorally known for the
past two weeks that Urumm would name
Schiiuk, notwithstanding; the promises made,
to another applicant and the protests entered
n the Postolliee Department at Washington
gainst tbe ex-Legislator's appointment.
There was but ono other active enndidato
outside of the successful one, aud that was
William It. Cole, formerly editor of the
Miners' Journal, and who has many sins to
answer for during t ho recent campaign iu his
eulogies of the defeated Republican enndi
dato for Congress. Wo beliove, however,
Cole has repented.
It is openly stated in Pottsvlllo that
Urumm assurod" Mr. Cole that he would re-
civo tlio plum, aud oven directed him how
to make tlio light, but later told him he was
(impelled to appoint Schrink. The Journal
this morning says Schrink's namo has been
handed to Postmaster General Smith and
that tho appointment will he made at once.
unless thoro is an unexpected hiteh."
From what wo can learn tho appointment
will ho held up until certain investigations
are made, and the appointee's political record
inquired into.
Pottsviile s new postmaster isn t yet ap
pointed by the President only the Congress
man has n'imed his choice. Tho battle has
only begun, if current rumor is to be relied
upon.

'The future of the farmer" is a big and
interesting question. Ex-Govcrnor llook-
waltor, of Ohio, in an article on the subject
in uext Sunday's Philadelphia Press, says
agriculture will bo elevated above other oc
cupations. He has just returned fiom Russia
and Central Asia, and tells some very strik-
ng things about tho world's food supply.
Next Suuday's Press will also contain n
couplo of puzzles which will tost your clever
ness to the utmost, with prizes to the
winners. There will bo an article on a
family which mado a living posing for adver
tisements; another of "Karl's" delightful
series of pastelles iu prose ; Frank G. Car-
uenter tells all about pretty girls of Para'
quay, aud M. Quad and Charles M. Snyder
will make you laugh until you can uardij
step. There will also be a complete story by

Providence, R. I., Feb. 10. Maxey
Hall, at Brown university, was gutted
by fire last night. Loss, $25,000. Fifty-
three students lost their rooms through

Inquests are Expensive.
Dr. C. A. Bleller, Schuylkill's Coroner,
made his return for January to tbe Com
missioners yeoterday. He held 20 inquests,
which aggregated fees in his favor amount
ing to $303. The fees allowed on each in
quest are: Viewing body, $5.50; summoning
jury, $2.75 ; 25 cents for each witness ex
amined, and 10 cents per mile to the scene of
inquest. An inquest was held this week In
this district over the remains of a Lost Creek
resident which was entirely unnecessary,
and has- eause.d considerably unfavorable

Homestead no Klumllke.
An interesting letter has been received
from Henry J. Metzger, who left town a few
weeks ago to seoure employment at Pittsburg
He Is at Homestead, a suburb of tbe smoky
city, and the impressions he receives from
his standpoint of view will interest tbosoof
our townsmen who may coutemplato seeking
their foitunes In that vicinity. His family is
still in this town. Mr. Metzer does slate
roofing and other work about buildings
He says tbe weather is retarding progress in
his line of business, but a busy spring and
summer is looked for. "But," says he, "in
regard to wages, they nro very low in propor
tion to the prices asked for houses and tbe
commod ties of life. There is a great scarcity
of cheap tenements and rents are enormous,
You miut pay f U to ilH a mouth tor an
eight-room house and 1 should think a man
with the means and opportunity to urect
tenements would have a good investment.
It is Impossible to get bonrd in private
families and the hotels charge (i a week,
wbleh amounts to about $82 per month. All
work on tho rivers are at a stand still,
There Is plenty laboring work at tho mills
aud men are badly needed, but the wages aie
very low $1 32 a day. Advice is given here
that men seekiug work go to Cleveland, O,
It is taid work is plentiful in tbat city,
wages hotter and living cheaper."

No Telephone Extension.
Senator Kline, president of the Hazlcton
Telephone Company, says his company does
not now contemplate extending its lines to
this county. He said : "You seo it is this
way, tho Schuylkill company was to securo
franchises and build lines to all the important
towns in Schuylkill, and had even $06,000
worth of contracts. But for some reason or
othor they were nover able to secure tho
Pottsviile franchise. Whether the Bell Tele
phone people were too much for them I can
not say. uur agreement was to build tbe
line from this end as far as Lofty." Tlio
local company would havo built their line,
but the Pottsviile Council refused to give an
other company, outside of the Bell, a right
nf way.
