don't give up the ship. When the
Jong, sleepless nights of restless tor

of hope and your tired brain would
welcome death as a gratefur deliv

fullered as long as you and still have
sound relief. Mrs. Vera I.esley, South

POLITICAL POINTERS.
The Republicans of the Fourth dis
trict are not showing much enthusiasm
regarding the legislative convention to
be held here 011 April 9, when the can
didate for the legislature and state
delegates will be named. The primar
ies will be held on April 7. 11. W.
Ilaworth. of town, is confident of being
chosen as the party's nominee for the
lower house.
It is now understood that Judge
Woodward will be a candidate for re
election. Delegates can bo had for S2O
a head at the Democratic convention,
and to make his success at the polls
doubly sure the corporations are work
ing up the "endorsement" sentiment
among the Republicans.
A desperate effort is being made by
the Quayites to prevent the renomina
tion of Representative Coray, of the
Second district. Coray was one of the
few honest men on the Republican
side of the house at Harrisburg, conse
queiitly lie is blacklisted by the machine, j
Ex-Senator John J. Coyle, formerly of J
town, was acquitted 011 Tuesday in the
Dauphin county court on the charge
of offering bribes to legislators while
action on a jury bill drawn to help e.\-
Senator Quay was pending in the last
session of the legislature.
One of the Democratic factions of the j
Fifth legislative district held a conven
tion at Port Griffith on Monday and
renominated Hon. M. J. Tigue for the i
legislature. The other faction will I
name its candidate next week.
Death of Victoria Croat* Holder.
Thomas Cosgrovo, who claimed to be
the only resident of this stale who had
a Victoria Cross, died on Thursday at
his home in Pittston of genera) debility,
aged 78 years. Cosgrovo won the much
desired cross by notable gallantry iu the
South Andaman island in 18(17. Ho was
then serving in the British army. A
scouting party was cut off, and volun
teers were called for to find tliom. Cos
grove was the first to step forward, aud
lie was placed iu command of five men.
The island swarmed with lavages. but
the little party searched the woods and
found their comrades surrounded by the
natives.
They fought their way through tlieni
and then back to the coast with their
comrades. Not a man reached the
coast without a wound. Co grove was
wounded three times, but recovered.
Each of the little party of rescuers was
rewarded by the Victoria Cross. Cos
grove came to this country thirty years
ago and has since lived in Pittson. Cos
grove enlisted under the name of Mur
phy, his mother's name, and his name
appears on the official list of Victoria
Cross men. There are only 109 living iu
ail the world.
Hi* Mind Wait a Blank.
On Monday afternoon Mrs. James Mc-
Garry, of Monacaqua, received a letter
from her missing husband, who mys
teriously disappeared one week ago.
He wrote from Shaft, Schuylkill coun
ty, a small mining town, that ho had
no recollection whatever of his leaving
home and his memory was entirely a
blank as to his wanderings since Mon
day night. He remembered, he said, of
having drank several glasses of beer
011 the night of Msrch 19 and of going
to the gate with a neighbor, but after
that, up to the time of writing to his
wife, his mind utterly failed him.
Nothing is known of any family trou
ble and he had no financial difficulties.
At the West End collieriey lie was much
thought of by the superintendent and
employes. It may be possible that witli
his multiplied duties, having recently
been appointed outside foreman in con
junction with the duties of breaker boss,
his mind became temporarily unbal
anced. As stated before be was a bard
worker and faithful employe.
I'lauH for the Brewery.
The projectors of tho company which
will be organized In town to establish
a brewery arc meeting with consider
able encouragement since their inten
tions havo been made public, and plans
for the enterprise arc rapidly coming to
a head. A preliminary organization
lias been formed ami a state charter will
he applied for without delay.
It has not yet been definitely decided
where tlio plant will he located, but a
site in the vicinity of South aud Fern
streets and another on South below
Adams have been looked at by Inter
ested parties. At either point a good
supply of water is promisod.
••What Happened to Jones."
There should be joy for the people of
Freeland in the announcement that one
of the best laugh-makers of our genera
tion, "What llapponed to Jones," is
hooked for an early appearance at the
Grand opera house. The author has
succeeded In putting the most mirthful
scones and situations over devised Into
the shortest space of time. In fact the
curtain has scarcely arisen upon tiio
llrst act before there is a chuckle which
presently broadens into a roar which is
kept up without subsiding for two and
a half hours. The fun is clean aud in
telligent. There is no horse play. The
spectator thinks while he laughs.
There is nothing to offend anyone and
there is that to delight every one.

COST OF MINING COAL
THOUSANDS OF LIVES LOST EVERY
YEAR IN THE REGION.
Statistic* of Anthracite Field us Com
piled by Ciller James K. Roderick.
I'raise for the Mine Laws of the State
and tlie Aline Inspectors.
The annual report of .Tames E. Roder
ick, chief of the state bureau of mines
and mining, contains a chapter dealing
with mine accidents and the causes. In
the thirty years frotn 1870 to 18110, the
report states, 0,57.T lives were lost in
and about the anthracite coal mines of
Pennsylvania. Commenting upon the
fatalities, the chief goes out of his way
to prove by flexible figures that the
mining laws of the state are all they
should be, that mine inspectors are
hardworking olUclals and that the ter
rible accidents in the coal fields which
startle the world periodically are the
fault of the miners themselves. The
chief knows upon which side his bread
is buttered, as the following extract
from his report easily shows:
"It is generally conceded that the
anthracite law of this state is the best
mining law in the world. Therefore, in
my opinion, the great loss of life is not
doe to any defect in the law. Neither
is it the fault of the mine inspectors,
who are an Intelligent and hardworking
body of men. Possibly neglect can be
traced to some colliery managements,
but the greatest neglect is on the part
of the employes. I claim that the mine
law has been the uieaus of greatly re
ducing the number of accidents in the
anthracite mines, and 1 will endeavor
to prove this by figures.
"lu the first decade (187U-71I) for every
1.000 persons employed a percentage of
3,830 persons lost their lives; In the sec
ond decade (1880-80) for every 1,000 per
sons employed 3,210 persons lost their
lives, while in the third decade (lto -10)
for every 1,000 persons employed 3,1-10
lost their lives.
The total production of coal in the ten
years Including 1870-70 was 185,024,840
tons. The total number of lives lost was
2,151.
The total production from 1880 to 1880
was 330,050,780; number of lives lost,
3,110. .
In 1800-00, Inclusive, 470,242,510 tons
were produced at a loss of life of 4,305.
When Almsgiving Is a gin.
"It is no exaggeration to say that the
use of money is a test of character and
a revelation of a man's nature," writes
lan Maclaren of "The Genteel Tramps
In Our Churches," in the April Ladies'
llome Journal. "There are men who
lose money by their foolishness—was
trels; there are men who spend it on
their vices—prodigals; there aro men
who hoard it with jealousy—misers;
there aro men who lay it out iu well
doing—they are the wise men. When
I say well-doing I am not thinking of
that unreasoning and Indiscriminate
charity which, whethor It take the form
of alms to a lar.y vagabond or a large
benefaction for the creation of paupers,
is a curse and not a blessing, a sin and
not a duty.
"We are not to read in a mechanical
fashion the advice of our Cord to the
young ruler to sell his possessions and
give to the poor, for though that might
have been the only pledge of sincerity
he could give in that day, it would be a
great calamity in our day. Whatever
may have been the case in ancient
times, there can be no question that iu
our day the man who establishes a
manufactory In a small town anil pavs
fair wages does ten times more good
than he who would use his wealth to
found an almshouse."
"The Span of Life."
That unique and highly successful
play, "The Span of Life," will be the
attraction at the Grand tonight. The
piece is a melodrama of Intunse interest
and allows excellent scope fur scenic
display and highly dramatic situations.
There is enough comedy interwoven to
break the monotony and furnish food
for laughter. In the third act, the
famous living bridge, from which the
title of the play Is derived, is given.
Mrs. lliunt and her child are taken
prisoners bv the villain, Leech, who has
become a leader among the Arab slave
humors. Attired as Arabs, ltlunt's
friends take liiin before Loeeli as a pris
oner, As soon as Leech turns bis back,
lliunt and his wife and child are re
leased. They liy to the mountains.
Blunt's friends cross a chasui by means
of a bridge. Ere it is reached by Blunt
with his wife und child, the Arabs ap
pear and throw the bridge Into the
chasm Just as the fugitives reach It.
Then is formed "The Span of Life" and
the heroine and her child cross over.
