PICKED IT BY THE WAY. THINGS SEEN AND HEARD IN THE TOWN AND VICINITY. Matters of a X.o<al Nature Written Vp ami Placed llefore the Readers of the '•Tribune" by the Situnterer Something Here 31 ay Interest You. The primitiveness of the coal mining industry is fast passing away, and is be ing superseded by an era of modernity calculated to excite great interest among students of human labor, as well as com pel the admiration of the world of science. The many crude implements con nected with the preparation of coal, , bo familiar to our fathers, as a result of, painful experience, may be looked for I in vain in most breakers of modern con- Btiuction. The progress of the world moves toward simplification, which is the logical deduction of genius, and the coal region can now boast of having en tered 011 the lirst stages of this condition. No longer does the miner wait to re ceive all his impressions from metropoli tan centres. We have often viewed our selves, as we stood attired, our clothes, our hats, our hats, our shoes, our but tons, all of the humble things which go to make up an important item of the sum and substance of human endeavor, and have wondered at the probable per fection of the machinery and the extra ordinary ingenuity required to turn them out in all their various designs and sizes. Often have we stood and looked at the monster steam engines roll into our little villages and gazed at them awe-struck as the product of the great skill of the city. No longer do we think this way. They were the wild fantasies of youth. To them we have giyen so much time that their familiarity has worked their own contempt and we have at length cast them oIT and stand forth to observe— what? That the era of perfection which we ascribed solely to the mystical city was dawning upon us and only asked us to open our eyes and behold it. The little breaker boy was the lirst to be supplanted by machinery. Several years ago the appartus known as the jig was invented and was found capable of separating slate and dirt from the coal with the accuracy of the human hand. At lirst these machines were worked only on the ordinary sizes, hut in recent years have been improved to such an extent that they are applicable to nearly all grades of coal. Electric light has taken the place of the mining lamp for night work about the breaker and in the shops. The omni present slate-bank mule, which for many years has been a familiar sight, issuing spasmodically from an entrance in the breaker, is now a back number in many places, as well the little push buggy used to supply pea coal to the boiler houses. And now the time is here when the old-fashioned fire-grate finds its days numbered and is replaced by one of au tomatic motion. This is one of the latest inventions in the line of labor-saving machinery, and is a product of tiie firm of C'oxe Bros. A Co., that remarkable corporation which iias set the pace for its contemporaries in much of the best breaker machinery of today. They are the originators of the gyrating screen, which in a few years will no doubt be adopted generally throughout the region in preference to the old revolving kind. '1 he traveling grate is the invention of Eckley B. Coxe. The first of the kind which he has erected, and on which he | has done considerable experimenting, is located near Kcklev. I had an oppor tunity of examining the grate one day last week and shall endeavor to give my readers a brief description of it. The boilers are built substantially in brick, in a manner similar to which they are erected generally. The grate hars are fastened to an endless chain, which is moved by wheels that fit on the chain between every two liars. These wheels are turned by a cog, which is revolved by a "worm" on a bar extending down from the main shaft overhead. A small engine drives the main shaft, from which short belts extend, so that each grate is operated independently of the other. The coal is carried from a dump on the outside by means of conveyors, also attached to an endless chain, which run in a long schute, and deposited in a hopper at one end of the grate. This hopper feeds the coal to the lire. The draft is furnished by a large fan, which discharges into a pipe, having a connec tion for each fire. The grate is entirely under cover, being necessary on accountj of the dust created by the ashes falling off each bar. It is wonderfully simple and easily understood. The fuel is fed to the fire at a thickness of about six inches, and from there to the other side, where it is discharged thoroughly combusted, it gets lessened gradually. The grate can be made to move at variable speed. When f saw it, it was moving at the rate of about three feet an hour, and when view ed through the fire-door its movement was imperceptible. The fire always burns brightly and evenly, as the peculiar build of the bars renders the draft most effective. The fuel used is the kind known as rice, the cheapest sort of stuff, which is scarcely better than mere dirt. It is procured by means of a settling tank at the breaker, into which the water used for washing the coal runs. This formerly ran out in a long trough and formed culm banks, large heaps of waste material, which can be seen at every breaker in the region. There is a probability that much of this will find a market if the new grates come into wide The effects of this new device on labor will be watched with interest. It is one of the sanguine expectations of the firm that each boiler house may he run by two men, and one of the superintendents has already declared that this will be the limit, no matter how large or small the place. Economy is the principal feature of the grate's success, and it is expected that this element will com | mend itself to all large users of steam 1 power. It is safe to predict, therefore, that on this account the grate will sooner or later come into general use, and wherever it is adopted it will compel the reduction of the force at present em ployed. However, these conditions will not present themselves immediately. The grate is yet new, and will have to stand considerable practical demonstra tion of its value before its adoption will take place in real earnest. The reappointment of a board of health by the borough council last week was a step in the right direction. I do not know what was the trouble that caused our former board to resign, but as the present one is composed of nearly all the old members, it may be taken for granted that whatever obstacles may have been in the way of working have been removed, and a continuation of the good work of last summer will be carried on. The board last year performed its duties creditably and effectively, and did a great deal in keeping the sanitary condition of the town so good. In viewing some parts of the borough lately I think the new officials will find some spots that will soon demand their attention, and by taking prompt action against those people who disregard the health laws they will earn the gratitude of all citizens who desire to see the town kept clean. Money Bpent in warding off the germs of disease is never lost, and the board should have the hearty co-operation of the council and the peo ple in its work. The gentlemen compos ing the board are all interested, more or less, in the welfare of the town, and if given the proper support they may be relied upon to carry out the law to the letter. The position is not a sinecure by any means, as the salary consists of nothing more than abuse from many quarters, and for the sacrifice of the time and labor the members make they should be aided by all. Saunterer. Fourth District Temperance Convention. The quarterly convention of the fourth district of the Scranton (J. T. A. Union was held at Mauch Chunk yesterday af ternoon. The convention was called to order by John J. McNelis, of Drifton, vice president of the union, who invited President Devine, of the Scranton Union, to take the chair. I pon taking the chair Mr. Devine, in a brief address, thanked the delegates for the iionor. The delegates' creden- I tials were handed to Secretary Kelly, j and pending the report of the secretary as to who were the delegates, a discus- | sion took place about changing the order j of business, so as to have the business j for which the convention was called, taken up and acted upon first, and any j remarks or speeches to come up after-1 wards. This took a considerable amount I of the time of the convention. Secretary Kelly reported delegates present from the following societies: St. Aloysius, of Beaver Brook; St. Gabriel's Cadets, of Ilazleton; St. Aloysius, of ilarleigh; Ilarleigh Cadets, Young Men's T. A. li. Society, of Freeland; St. Mary's T. A. B. Society, of Eckley; St. Aloysius, of White Haven; St. Ann's Cadets, of Drifton; St. Ann's T. A. B. Society, of Drifton; St. Aloysius, of Beaver Mea dow ; Beaver Meadow Cadets; Tamaqua T. A. B. Society; St. Ann's Pioneer • orps, of Freeland; St. Aloysius, of Cata sauqua; St. Aloysius, of South Bethle hem; Allentown T. A. B. Society; Sum- | mit Hill T. A. B. Society; St. Joseph's T. A. B. Society, of Summit Hill; St. Aloysius, of Mauch ChunkjYoung Men's j T. A. B. Society, of Jeanesville, and St. j GabHel's, of Ilazleton. The question of a free Keely cure institution, which was left over from the Ilarleigh convention, was taken up, and after discussing it for some time a resolution was passed authorizing the president to appoints committee of six, who are to prepare suitable resolutions and have them acted upon by the Scran- Con and Philadelphia Unions and en dorsed by them, requesting the legisla ture to have a bill passed to locate free Keely institutes at the expense of the state. The president appointed D. J. McCarthy, James Fitzgerald, Edward Boyle, N. It. Harrington, F. X. Cannon and A. Enriglit. Considerable discussion took place on the question of allowing Mr. Judge to distribute leaflets, advocating the for mation of ladies societies. The delegates voted to hold the next convention at South Bethlehem. An entertainment was held in the opera house at 8 o'clock under the auspices of the Mauch Chunk Society. Music and recitations were indulged in, and speeches were delivered by J. W. Cogue, of the Philadelphia Union; Presi dent Devine, of Scranton, and D. J. McCarthy, of Freeland. WASHINGTON LETTER. Washington, April 20, 189-1. \ The more one studies the work of the Democratic senators the more apparent it becomes that they need a leader. There is too much guerrilla fighting. Single leadership is as necessary in ; politics as in an army, if results are to be accomplished. It may please the per- ■ sonal friends of a senator for him to strike out on his own hook and make a | brilliant attack on a party measure, but | the example is fatal to party harmony, as it is always followed by those who never would have attempted to lead such a movement. It is not necessary that a leader shall have more ability than any of his followers. All that is needed is that one man shall be recog nized as leader. The full significance of this will be plain to any Democrat who will take the trouble to ask half a dozen Democratic senators to name the Demo cratic leader of the senate, and note the number named. Now, there may be a dozen leading Democratic senators, but there should be and can be only one real leader at a time. If the Democratic senators had one recognized leader the party would be spared the spectacle of the uncertainty now surrounding the tariff bill. Of course every Democrat ' knows that the senate is going to pass a tariff bill, hut there is no man who can now say just what sort of a bill it w ill be when it is passed. This situation, with a clear Democratic majority in the senate, is humiliating to every Democrat and should not be possible and would j not be if the Democratic senators were j organized as good party men should be. The attempt to saddle a part of the res ponsibility for this unfortunate state of affairs upon President Cleveland fools no one who is conversant with the atti tude the president occupies towards the senate. Ilis skirts are clear: Senator Smith, of New Jersey, added his voice to that of Senator iiill in at tacking the income tax and oilier parte of the tariff bill, in a set speech deliver ed in the senate this week. After stat ing his reasons for opposing the income tax and other schedules of the bill, Mr. Smith said: "But in justice to my party, my state and myself, I cannot leave any room for misapprehension. 'I he Demo cratic party is under a distinct obligation to confer the boon of tarilt reform upon the American people. We cannot hope to overcome the present dissensions and fulfill this obligation unless we beat down all attempts to create discord with in the ranks and strive earnestly for party harmony." Mr. Smith has doubt less heard the Btory of the eleven obstin ate jurors, llis plea for party harmony ; recalled it to many of his hearers. Forty-seven Democrats in the house 1 stood out to the last and yoted against the adoption of the rule for counting a quorum, but its adoption was inevitable, and, as long as it seemed impossible to keep a Democratic quorum on hand it is perhaps just as well. There will be no J more dead-locks this sesssion. That is | much to he thankful for. The Repuhli- I cans are pretending to be much pleased j over the adoption of the rule, hut as a matter of fact they are not. It ends | their ability to make trouble whenever they pleased, and for that reason is dis liked by them. It is not probable that j the new rule will be put in force often. i | Its existence is all that will be needed to make a voting quorum, as a rule. There has been lots of talk here about; I the production of evidence showing that the navy department did not find out all j of the "snide" business connected with [ j the making of armor plates by the Car-' 1 negie Comgany, but up to this time J nothing new has been placed before Sec- j j rctary Herbert, although he has been I ready and even anxious to get hold of I anything new in that line. j It seems a little like putting the cart | before the horse to follow the quorum- j counting rule with the enforcement of ! the old law docking the pay of members [ of the house for the time they are absent! j without leave, except on account of sick-, ness either of themselves or in their j j families, but it is to he done. Perhaps j if this law had been enforced from the ] beginning of the session there would | have been no necessity for a quorum- | counting rule. It might have kept a ! Democratic quorum on the floor of the house. S. Miners On on Strike. The strike ordered by the United Mine Workers' convention which met at Columbus, 0., last week, went into effect at noon on Saturday. President Mcßride, of the Miners' Association, stated at Columbus that 132,000 men stopped work in compliance with the general order. Reports indicate that j in Pennsylvania about 10,000 went out in the bituminous regions; in Indiana, 5,000; Alabama, 10,000; Tennessee, 3,000; Illinois, 10,000; Ohio, 10,000. In Colo rado, Kansas and lowa the men refused ] to go out. The officials of the union I state that an efort will be made this week to induce the anthracite miners to join the strike. The object of the strike j is to secure an advance of 20 per cent. , in wages for the miners of America. Wall paper, (i centH per double roll, at A. A. Bachman's.

The latest of these whims had been to en gage herself at eighteen to a good looking young barrister, who, like many of his fellows, had not yet had nu opportunity of giving his eloquence to the world. He was not what would be called a good "parti," but he was a gentlemanly, pleasant fellow genuine ly in love with Maud, who, under all her fanciful, spoiled childishness, had a warm loving heart, that had really given itself into Jim Burgoyne's keep ing. Therefore, It was with no small surprise that Miss Talbot heard the an swer to her question, spoken in an ag greived tone: "No! 1 told nurse to send the car riage for me at six. I hope that is not too late for you? Jim is otherwise en gaged." "Otherwise engaged 1" echoed Miss Talbot, in amazement. "Why, Maudie, what do you mean?" "Just what 1 say, Aunt Joan! Jim seems to find other things quiet as amus ing as looking after me, so naturally 1 don't trouble him more than I can help," and the speaker put down her cup, and clasping her hands round her knee looked resentfully at the fire. "And pray when did this state of things begin?" asked Miss Talbot, re suming her interrupted knitting, a srailo brightening her kind gray eyes. "Oh, you need not laugh. Aunt Joan," answered Maud, solemnly; "it is very serious. lam excessively angry with Jin); and it will be some time before I can forgive him, and—and ho does not care a bit!" This with a little catch in her voice that made her aunt look at her sharply, and find that tho eyes staring at tho fire were full of tears. The st 1 11 handsome, stately woman rose, and drawing a chair beside her niece, put her hand upon her shoulder saying: "Child! what foolish tiff is thin? What has Jim done to ofTen-l you?" i Maud hesitated a moment, then her indignation found vent. I "I will just tell you the whole thing," she cried, "and you will see if you think ho has behaved well. It all began at that ball wo went to last Monday week. I had promised him some of the first waltzes and refused other partners, and ho never came till more than an hour after wo got there. Then, instead of apologizing, ho n#;rely said ho had been unexpectedly detained by a friend whom he had not seen for some time, and hoped I would give him other dances to make up. I said I could not, and told him I was no| pleased, and danced with other people all night. lie calmly went and amused himself as if nothing had happened, and danced three times with Mary Lovoll! I would not go in to supper with him, and made father come home early. Jim came down to the door with us, and asked mo to look kindly at him before I said good night, but I was much too angry, and never : looked at him at all. Tho next morn ; iug ho came, and actually laughed at my reproaches when 1 was quite in clined to make friends with him, and did not see why I complained. Tho result was that 1 got angry again, told him that if he did not care for keeping his appointments with mo he had bet ter not make any, and would not listen j to any excuses on his p:;rt, but left him I and went upstairs. I had a note from ! liira in the evening, i.skiug mo to see him and make friends with him before he went off tho next day, but I thought it would bo a very g >•> 1 lesson for him to wait till ho came back, and I wrote and said that I was engaged, and that"—with a little sigh —"was nearly a week ago." "Where was lie going?" asked Miss Talbot. "He had been engaged to some friends for shooting a long time ago. lie will be away n fortnight" There was rather a melancholy tone in Maud's voice, in spite of her just indignation. "And so, for a senseless bit of pride, you let this man, whom you know very well loves you with all his heart, go off | without as much as a kind word! Child, child, you are playing with edged tools; j take care lest you wound yourself; it is dangerous work." Miss Talbot's voice had a sad ring in it that made her hearer look at her in surprise, but sho went on without noticing her, gaz- j ing at the glowing coals as if reading her words there. our silly little tale brings back to rae a time that is long past and gone; a time when tho blood ran fast in my veins, and my face was fair and smooth like yours, though I suppose you think j I must always hare been forty y airs old Did no one ever tell you Aunt I Joan's story? Did you ever wonder why she never married? Ah, well! 1 daresay not!" She paused, and Maud, a little awe struck by this strarige news Aunt .loan so unexpectedly revealed to her, drew her low chair close, and put her hand upon her knee. Miss Talbot took it lovingly in hers, and went on in the same Blow, sad, remembering sort of voice.

The days passed like a dream of joy and sunshine by the sparkling sea that I loved so well, and that was to bring my life's happiness to an end. "The night before Bryan left us wo were all going to a ball at a neighbor ing country house.' Tho next day he was to j in some friends who were on a yachting cruise round tho south coast, and who wero to put into Ply mouth to pick him up. I was in a teasing, flighty mood, delighted to try and make Bryan jealous, and pretend 1 did not mind tho prospect of losing him for some time. llow trivial it all seems now, looking back! At this ball we met a certain Mr. Ilargraves, a man who had paid me a considerable amount of attention, and who was Bryan's special aversion. Some evil spirit prompted me to flirt with him and to dance with him oftener than was necessary. So often, that Bryan, who was tho least exacting of lovers, spoke to mo about it towards tho end of the evening, and aslced me not to dance with him again, as I was mak ing myself a little conspicuous. I re member his very words! We were in tho conservatory. " 'lt is not that I mind for tn3 T self, sweetheart, though I would rather you would give mo more of yourself this last evening* wo shall spend together, hut I don't like people to be able to make any remarks about you. You can quite well stay here with me a bit and say you forgot his other dance. Such things are allowed in your case.' "There was such a loving smile in his blue eyes as ho beat over me! And I, fool that 1 was, said no, that I was not in the habit of pretending to forget an engagement, that 1 really could not allow him to be overbearing already, and that I would be glad if ho i would take me back to my place. Theu his dear face grew very grave and ho said: 'Are you serious, Joan? Don't you think it is pushing your play a little too far?
