Training Horses--A Card.

Mr.. EDITOR: We esteem it our pleas
ure as we'll as duty, to publicly express
our qualification at witnessing very sat
isfactory exhibition of the management
and training of horses, given by Mr. A.
II. Danforth, formerly resident of
Grafton,) before large class in this
town, on the 18th inst. His system for
subduing the most vicious horses is un-
equalled, and evidently the result of
long experience and study. 1t is gentle
yet effective, embracing the best points
in the system of j. S. Rarey and others,
with improvements on all. His speedy
and practicable plan of laying down a
colt, his method of breaking them to the
halter, in which no physical force is en-
ployed, his manner of biting them so as
to secure an easy and governable mouth,
by which not only the head, but the
whole body answers to the rein, and his
unrivalled fetter," which thoroughly
prevents their jumping or injuring them
selves-are some of the most valuable
parts of his method.
These as also many other points, were
successfully executed, and we would
strenuously advise every one whether
personally interested in the "science of
Workmanship" or not, to avail them
selves of any opportunity which will in
sure them the privilege of witnessing Mr.
Danforth's system.
We herewith cordially recommend
him to every horseman in the country
as well worthy of confidence and sup

Balance of reserved fund,

The prominent feature in the business of the
past year was the almost entire cessation of
traffic in anthracite coal for about seven weeks
in July and August, caused by differences be-
tween the prOprietorS of the colieries and the
miners and laborers, relative to the number Of
hours which should comprise days work and
the compensation therefor This long inter-
Tuption in the season of business, generally
very active, caused heavy loss Of profits, as
the usual staff of employees were kept in readi-
ness for the resumption of mining operations
on any day. There was partial compensation
by an unusually large traffic, at increased
charges for the remaining three months, in
which the coal tonnage amounted to 1894 066
tons, showing a capacity for transportation
largely in excess of any former period. Not
withstanding this interruption, the aggregate
production from the three great mining dis
tricts Of anthracite coal was ,lGl 1854 tons in
excess of the previous year, thus proving that
the consumption is steadily progressing.
The proprietors of lands and others inter-
ested in more fully developing the northwest
ern portion of the second coal field obtained
charter to build railroad, under the title of
the Enterprise Railroad Company, which was
offered to this company on the condition that
the work should be vigorously prosecuted.
The offer was accepted, and a road six miles in
length has been constructed, which connects
the Minehill and Schuylkill Haven Railroad
with the town of Shamollin. A large coal ton
mage will be obtained from this district.
A change of ownership of the large tracts
Of coal lands in the immediate vicinity of Ire
verton and of the railroad from that place to
the Susquehanna river, formerly known as the
Treverton Coal and Railroad Company, now
called the Zerbe Valley Railroad, having oc-
Cured, the new proprietors rendered large
portion of their production Of coal to us for
transportation, provided connection with the
works of the company could be made.
Negotiations for these objects were opened,
which resulted in the purchase of their rail
road, fifteen miles in length, including a bridge
across the Susquehanna river for 100000
payable in the bonds of this company due in
1898, with semi-annual interest Of six pei
cent, free from taxes. This road has been
put in good order TO the point of connection
with the Northern Central Railroad on the
east side of the Susquehanna river, at a cost o.
S27,512 GA.
