FRIDAY, JANUARY 1, 1909.
Do not wait for opportunities. Im
prove yourself constantly, and you will
have all the opportunities you can use.
Make yourself a power in yourown world
and yon will soon be wanted in a larger
world.
Make up your mind clearly and firm
ly what you want in this life, and be
determined to get it. You cannot fail if
you continue to stand unflinchingly upon
your original resolve. Though you do
not get it as soon as you desired, there
is no need of giving up. You have the
power to get what you want and you will
positively get it, if you continue to use
that power.
News of the devastation wrought by
the earthquake in Italy was received by
the government scientists in Washington
with profound interest. The tremors
were received on the seismograph m
instrumcnta of both the Weather Bureau
and the Coast and Geodetic Survey, and
the Weather Bureau officiala.had figured
out almost with mathematical precision
the section of the globe where the great
force of the shock was felt, but there
was nothing to indicate the tremendous
violence of the disturbance as brought
out by the later reports showing the
enormous loss of life and property dam
age-
A petition to the State Legislature is
being circulated, asking for the enact
ment of a law which will make the hunt
ing of pheasants and other birds with
dogs illegal. The sportsmen believe that
in a few years the pheasants and many
others ol our choice birds will certainly
have been exterminated from the
Pennsylvania woods unless strict legisla
tion is enacted to save them. The hunt
ing of birds with the aid of dogs is in
dulged in so extensively that in a patch
of woods a few hunters' easily kill every
bird and the species can in a very short-
time become extinct.
Claus Spreckels, the multimillion
aire sugar king, died in San Francisco
on Saturday morning last, aged 80 years
He was born in Hanover, Germany and
came to this country when eight years
of age. Twenty years -later he conduct
ed a store and brewery-in San Francisco,
and in 1863 established a sugar refinery
m that city, importing his raw material
from Hawaii. By inventing new pro
cesses and constantly enlarging his busi
ness he became immensely wealthy, and
at the time of his death was a large
owner of the stock of the steamship
company trading between San Francis
co and the South Sea islands. On the
same day of Mr. Spreckels's death, Dr,
Richard A. F. Penrose, father of U. S,
Senator Boies Penrose, died at his home
n Philadelphia.
SUPPLY OF ANTHRACITE.
The latest estimate of the anfount of
anthracite coal in the ground, made by
M. R. Campbell for the United States
Geological Survey, is 21,000,000,000 tons.
In 1879 P. W. Shaeffer estimated the
contents of the anthracite coal measures
in Pennsylvania at 26,360,576,000 tons
and the amount of coal accessible and
marketable at 8,276,856,666 tons. The
estimate of Joseph S. Harris in 1880 was
a gross total of 13,260,392,591 tons and a
marketable total of 3,580,036,600 tons.
In 1892 Mr. Harris' estimate was revised,
and he then reported a gross total of 14,
453,970,000 tons, of which 5,900,700,000
tons were marketable. In the same year
James F. Jones, in a report on the qual
ity of anthracite coal in ground, estimated
it at 12,000,000,000 tons. Mr. Shaeffer
estimated the marketable coal at one
third Of the total amount in the ground.
Mr. Harris, in 1880estimated that 27 per
cent, of the coal in the ground was ac
cessible and marketable, and, according
to his figures, a production of 60,000,000
tons per year would exhaust the mines
in 100 years, with the high point of pro
duction in 1915.
It is evident,8uggests the coal record,
that the question of the exhaustion of
anthracite coal will not be a vitally in
teresting one to this generation. A large
part of the territory owned by the lead
ing producers and carriers is undevel
oped, but it will be necessary in the next
few years to increase the colliery capacity
if it ia shown that the consumption is
60,000,000 tons or above that quantity.
A GREAT SCHOOL.
SCRANTON BUSINESS COLLEGE.
The Scranton Business College began
its fifteenth year on Tuesday, Sept. 1st,
with a large enrollment. Despite the
hard times the enrollment has been very
heavy since and the school is now very
large. The suddenly greatly increased
demand for office help this month is an
indication that good times are here again
and that those who soonest qualify as
bookkeepers or stenographers will reap
the greatest rewards. School will open
again on Monday, Jan. 4th. Write to
If. D. BUCK, Principal, Scranton, Pa.

Carrying Concealed Weapons.
During the progress of a case in the
Monroe county court" a few days since,
it was testilled that n etroudsburg jus
tice of the peace had advised people
that the had a right to carry revolvers,
when Judge Staples halted the proceed
ings and gave the following as his ju
dicial interpretation of the lan relating
to the carrying of concealed weapons : -"The
very fact of a person, man or
boy, having concealed about him, a re
volver or other deadly weapon, makes
him liable to conviction, unless he can
explain in a satisfactory manner how he
happens at the time to be carrying that
weapon, and this court will hold any
such person to the strict letter of the
law. In other words, the reason, or the
necessity, for the carrying of the revol
ver must be such as wovld excuse him,
and it is necessary at this time that the
rule should be held np very strictly. No
justice of the peace has a right to give
any such advice, as he is not elected to
serve as advisor to the people ; but he is
simply there to perforin the duties of his
office, and we hope that advice will not
be taken as the correct law, and we de
sire this matter to be called to the at
tention of all the people. Wc see some
persons in the audience who deal in
lire-arms and wc say to them, that not
withstanding the profit in the sale of a
revolver, that such person should not
sell revolvers to irresponsible people.
There are a large number of foreigners
about this town at the present time and
it behooves the people to see that the
law is strictly complied with and that
everything is done to see that there is
not such opportunity given as would
lead to a violation of the law. and even
severe injury or death, resulting. We
hope that the persons to whom the court
has given this advice will follow it.
"There is no law that prevents a deal
er in fire-arms from selling to anybody,
but we trust to their good sense and pat-

Steene.
Dec. 28th. Much credit is due to
Miss Mary King, who so ably conducted
the pupils of her school here for the ben
efit of the Christmas exercises at the
chapel. We will also giye credit to Mrs.
J. E. Haley, Mrs. W. M. Wood and Miss
Minnie Mill, who so tastefully decorated
the interior of the chapel. Beside the
tree a handsome arch' made of ever
greens and trimmed with artificial flow
ers stood in the centre of the platform,
from which our pastor addressed the
Sabbath school ina most interesting and
instructive manner, his theme being
"The Birth of Christ." The program
was too long for reproduction here, and
we must be content with saying that
every number was well selected, and,
whether instrumental or vocal, whether
a recitation or address, every number
was well rendered. After the Christmas
tree exercises 'came "A Plea for Santa
Claus," when Angus Wood put in an
appearance, loaded down witlf gifts, in
the distribution of which all present
were remembered,
George Wood and Irving Swingle
made a fine catch .of the finny tribe one

catch being 86 perch and pickerel.

ily, spent Christmas at a family gather
ing in Mount Pleasant.

doll with gray eyes and curly hair. His
time U all taken up'with it at present.
Sterling.
Dec, 27th. Wc have had several days
of excellent sleighing, which is being
well improved.
Many of our young folks are. home on
vacations, vir. : David and Royal Cross,
from Carmel University; Floyd, "Stella
and Myrtle Cross from Wyoming Semi
nary ; Earl Cross, from Perkiomen Semi
nary ; Grace Gillner, from Bloomsburg
State Normal School, and Mason Gilpin
from Wyoming Seminary.

pin's, George Howe is home from Moo
sic, and Susie Cross from Moscow.

ter, Mrs. W. B. Leshcr, spent a few very
pleasant days at Dallas, with the Rev.
David Evans's family.
Mr. and Mrs. F. H. Cross are here
again, and expect soon to move into
their old home, having spent over a vear
u-ltfl Ilia frrl,ir1tnronfo it, TiiMnK '

necticut. The Maple Grove school had their
Christinas exercises on the evening of
the 23d, and the Jericho Sunday school
on Christmas night.
The Sterling M. E. Sunday schobl
held forth on the evening of the 24th.
Such entertainments always bring out a
full house, and this time was no excep
tion. The children usually receive much
credit for their excellent speaking and
singing, and they deserve it, but the
faithful teacher, who does the drilling,
seldom gets the credit Ehe deserves. She
is, as it were, "the power behind the
throne."
A. M. and Mrs. Sampson, from Ariel,
brought Rev. and Mrs. S. B. Murray
down to-day, and he very acceptably
filled the M. E. pulpit. A good sermon
is appreciated now, as we have had but
one in three months.

In the coming of Fanny Rice to the
Lyric Theatre on New Year's Day, Fri
day, Jan. 1st, the amusement seekers
have a treat in store for them, not alone
in the fact of Miss Rice herself, but in
the opportunity the lady is given to por
tray her versatile art, as Nancy Patch,
the Shoemaker's wife, in "A Day Off."
The play is of the best class of musical
comedies, and a real story of interest
runs through the prologue and three
acts, abounding with comedy, pathos
and music. Fine opportunity is given
in the last act for Miss Rice, who will
impersonate in midget mimic stage her
famous characterizations which always
prove a delight to ladies and children
With an excellent cast and complete
production, which is promised, an excep
tional offering seems assured.
