H*ported It Favorably.
The new county bill was again dis
cussed over three hours on Tuesday
night before the house committee.
County Solicitor Moore, of Luzerne:
County Solicitor Ulrich, of Schuylkill:
J. M. C'arr, Esq., of Freeland, and At
torney Herring, of Pottsvillc, opposed
the favorable consideration of the meas
ure. Their arguments failed to make
any impression on the committee, which
, soon after the conclusion of tho speeches
voted to report the hill nfiirmatively.
The vote stood: favorable, 17; unfavor
able, 8. The bill has already passed the
onate and as the house committee has
reported It favorably it will probably be
passed without much further opposition.
Forged Naturalization Rupert*.
On election day the number of new
voters in Wilkes-Rarro township was a
surprise to the natives, who challenged
without effect, for citizens* papers were
flashed. One of the candidates became
suspicions,and upon investigation, learn
ed from a Hungarian that he had re
ceived his paper from Peter Quinn, a
prominent politician, on the day before

paper, which lie took to tho county
seat and submitted to an attorney. It
was a genuine citizen's paper, but Clerk
of the Courts Stanton pronounced his
signature a forgery. A number of ar
rests are likely to follow, and tho politi
cians are excited over the matter.

UPPER LTHIJH NOTES.
What a pleasure ground the Honey

magnificent, the boating is delightfu ,
the streams are full of the finny tribe

and tho waters are very suitable f
bathing. The trolley company could
reap a harvest by investigating thi

moved their household effects to Ply
mouth.
The small band of tramps, nine in
number, who are taking care of the

Waste In Cooking Potatoes.
An English scientist, after careful
experiments, finds that when potabx*s 1
nro cooked without removing the
skins they lose only three percent, of
nutritive quality through extraction
of the juice. When the skins were re
moved before boiling tho loss was
fourteen per cent., which makes the
process of cooking the potatoes with
out their jackets an exceedingly was!©-
ful ono.

The Reading Railroad Company ll; 1 .-
exploded a small-sized bomb among the
coal dealers of Philadelphia by announc
ing that, on and after .Monday next, it
will withdraw the joint coal freight rates
now existing between the Reading, Le
high Valley and Jersey Central Railroad
umpanies, by which Is meant that tn
and after the date named it will decline
to haul coal tendered to it by the Lehigh
joey auu Jersey central at junction
points for delivery to points along tlie
ending system at present rates. Oili
cials of tiie three different companies
i teres ted were reticent. An official of
lie Lehigh Valley, however, oonlirmod
the report, but said ho could give 110
anther iiiioriiiiitlou on the subject, a-,
ho matter would he taken up for con
sideration by the presidents of tin; three
roads probably some time this week.
It Is Known, However, that the "bone
of contention" is over the division of the
hrouglt rate 0:1 eoal. which is, from the
Wyoming region to Philadelphia, 51.75
per ton. The Reading claims that its
proportion or percentage of this rate is
mt adequate and the withdrawal of the
present joint rates means that it is to
be followed by a demand for 1111 increase
In its share, which is said now to he S5
>r HO cents per ton from junction points
to the various yards in Philadelphia.
Coal men claim that this is not the
true reason why the Reading lias taken
the course outlined. They say it is to
shut Lehigh Valley aud Jersey Central
coal out of the Philadelphia market as
far as possible, as it has lately been sold
to such an Increased extent as to injure
the Reading's city business. They say \
tho Reading lias now taken this tack to
keep control of its local coal trade bv :
asking a prohibitive proportion of the '
through rate; that is. demanding as its |
share more than the Jersey Central or I
Lehigh Valley can afford to pay, and
thus shut them out of Philadelphia or
compel them to send their coal via the
Pennsylvania. In the latter case the
greatest sufferers would be those dealers j
whose yards are located dirot t y or
reached hv sidings on the Reading lines, j
and are accessible only by tho Reading. !
Those dealers buy considerable Lehigh
coal, and tho position taken by the I
Reading will affect ibis region to no
small extent.

Robbery by Daylight.
A bold attempt at burglary was made
at the home of s. 11. Vaughn, at Dor
ra nee ton, on Monday at noon by two
unknown robbers. Mr, and Mrs. Vaughn
are visiting hi Washington, and their
home is being looked after by Amos W.
Neal. In tho morning Neal left the
house to go to the postofllce, leaving Mr.
Bonham, a carpenter, doing some re
pairs. Ronham finished his work at
11 o'clock and went home. Mr. Neal re
turned at 11.30 o'clock and on entering
the side room he saw two men going
through Mr. Vaughn's safe and the floor
full of papers. When tho thieves hoard
Neal enter they jumped to their feet and
leveled revolvers at liini. One of them
kept him covered with tiie weapon, while
the other opened tin* door, through
which botli darted and ran towards the
river. Neal grabbed a Winchester and
gave chase, but the robbers easily dis
tanced him. The safe contained a lot
of valuable papers, but whether any of
them were taken or not will not b
known until Mr. Vaughn returns. Even
room in the house was ransacked, and it
is thought that a small amount of silver
ware was taken.
