A Queer Chap.
A lioanhoud of bin, contributed by a Now
York firm to ilia Herald-Irish relief fund,
was bought by a carpenter and builder
named It. C. Dexter. In ruTerlng to pur.
ihsso the ulo bo said, "I will dump it into
the North rlvor, wlioro nil the ale aud rum
aud everything that can Intoxicate in this
world should ho doposltiHl j but tho au.
lediluvlnn Hood would be no ooin)ftrlson,
and New York would go out of sight. I
would therefore suggest that these damna
ble compounds should be distributed Into
all the oie aim and rivers throughout the
world imd their nianufuoture forever stop
lied." A duy or two later he changed his
mlud, and fixed A time when he would
empty Into tho gutter, saying, " The rea
hod for making this change is my rospoot
nud sympathy for tho Hah. The good book
snys man shall have dominion ovor every
thing that orecps, crawls, swims or flies,
but no license is given to tntoxiuato 1HU."
An iuinieiiHe crowd collected near Dexter's
tthop at the time appointed. This placard
was on the door, although tho hogshead
was not a keg, and contained ate, not
boor :
Captured at last, a keg of beer,
Before beginning lis vile career
It's blood'll be spilled upon the earth,
.Where all such should be at Us birth.
Execution this day at 8:!10 P. M.
Borne lojs bad been standing around
with tin cans for two hours to scoop up
the liquid from the gutter, and fearing tho
police would get after him for collecting a
crowd, Dexter went to tho nearest station
house and told how things stood. He was
told that an ordinanoo would bo violated
by emptying the ale Into the gutter, and
announced tbut it would not bo done.muob.
to tho disappointment of the ganilst.. Dbx.
tor is a queer charaoter. To a Herald re
porter he said : "On the last Friday in
every mouth .at half-past thieo. o'clock

mouth at, half-past three P. M. sharp.
Broad and Wall.' Make a man happy aud
lie will never forget it. Money goes fur
thor and deeper than anything else.
The Strike In the Clearfield Region.
It was supposed that the strike in the
Clearfield coal rogion would terminate this
' week, but the diflloulty continues and it Is
difficulty to determine which will suooumb
lirst, the operators or the miners. The
Tyrone Herald ssys at last accounts, Ster
ling aud Moshannon had a few men at
work, but other wise the Clearfield coal
business is at a dead stand-still, . aud will
perhaps- remain in that condition until
next week, when, it is generally supposed,
this dead-lock rnunt break. This is the
liftu week of tho strike, aud as tbe out-put
of coal was averaging about 40,000 tons a
week the rogiou has sustained a stoppage
of 800,000 tons, on which the minors aloue
lose $100,000, the price for dlggiug the
coal at fifty cents. The drivers aud other
workmen, at ten cents a ton, have lost $20,
000 ; while at the usual selling price of
coal, tho miners, operators and railroad
company, all taken together, have lost
$350,000 In consequence of the Clearfield
strike. The coutiuuauce of tho strike de
ponds in ore on the condition of the market
with regard to the Bupply of coal than on
tho caprice of either operators or miners.
If the demand continues and the stock ou
hand grows blnn t, the dealers must have
coal, even ut advauced prioes ; and under
such conditions the operators and miners
will not be long in coming to terms.
tW Tho Messis. Collins Philip and
Thomas of Pliludclphia, the well-known
railroad contniutois, who entered with so
much courage on the building of the Ma
deira aud Mamore railroad, iu Brazil, have
lost their case in Loudon, the House of
Lords huving sustained a decision of tbe
Court of Appeals by which the money
which they wuro to have received for their
work is divorted to other persons. The
court's ruliug stopped the construction,
substantially, a year or more ago, and this
no doubt euris the undertaking. The
Messrs. Collins have no doubt sustained a
heavy loss, ami liiey and their friends feel
that they have substantially been robbed
by the Enj-lish decisions. The Philadel
phia Titties says time " it has been impos
sible to oveilook the fact that every pow
erful iullueucn iu London finanolal, so
cial aud speculative was combined against
these couti actors ou no other discoverable
ground than that they were Americans,
who were likely to succeed where English
men failed, and wboo success would draw
off to America a huge trade which Eug.
land bad hitherto controlled.
Profit, $1,000,
" To sum it up, six long years of bed
ridden elckuess, costing $200 per year,
total $1,200 all of this expense was
stopped by three bottles of Hop Bitters
taken by my wife. She Las done her
own housework for a year aluce, without
the loss of a day, and I want everybody
to know H, for their benefit." 14 2t
