THE CHORAL SOCIETY INVITATION CONCERT.
which took place on Saturday evening, attracted
large, brilliant and appreciative company,
composed OF our principal citizens and their
families, with the majority of the music loving

precision which took the audience by surprise,

The PENNSYLVANIA Coal TRADE. The
Philadelphia Ledger of yesterday says The
anthracite coal trade is nearing the end of the
season, and for the past week has ruled quite
dull. What,with the large coal production an
unusually mild fall, high wages at the Mines
high charges by the carrying companies, and
apprehended lower prices of coal, operators
are Stacking of 10 production, and quite mum
Der Of mines have ceased work. The coal pro
duction this year is very large, notwithstaDd-
ing the Schuykill, from various causes, is over
bali million tons short OF its last year sup
ply to this time. This is so, though there is
disposition in some interested quarters to make
the increase some two and quarter millions of
tons less than it actually IS. The carrying
companies arc doing what they can to cncour
age production in order 10 secure the largest
possible tonnage, but coal operators and ship
pers are 10th to take the risk of future prices
The general impression is, among those best
informed OF the present condition of the trade,
that the market is pretty we'll supplied for the
winter, and:in order to maintain prices, and to
prevent the spring opening on full yards at
low prices, production will steadily shrink until
the close of navigation, after which, notwith
standing there ara railroads unaffected by frost
connecting directly with the largest cities, very
little coal will be mined.

THE EGYPTIAN SPHINx.-After doing your
best to photograph the size OF the great nyra'
mid upon your mind, step over to where the
Sphinx stands in majesty and power !tS
p06r, WORKOUT face has been sadly abused By
souvenir satherers; yet though the long array
OF gone centuries it eazas, seemingly yearnlne
Tor the days OF the Pharaohs. All, that semi
chidike smile slightly sad, yet sweet, you vii
remember. If no coarse minded person Is
with you, you will bs drawn toward it. Dom
''aush at me when [ tell you that though 1t is
tic 18th tine have seen the Sphinx, yet
each time the Impression becomes more and
moro fixed that if George Washington's iecc
was sculpturcd in stone OF similar size 1t
would look exactly like the face OF the Sphinx.
Perhaps | am tool, but do not blame my
candor. A very learned man says ct the
Sphinx: Even now, after all We have seen
of colossal statues, there was something stu
pendous in the sight of that head, its vast pro
iectipg wig, its great ears, its open eyes, the
red color still visible en- its cheek, the immense
projection of the whole lower part CT its face.
Yet what must it have been when on its
head there was the royal helmet of Egypt, on
its chin the royal beard when the stone pave
ment BY which men approached the pyramids
ran up between It's paws; when Immediately
under its breast 40 altar stood. from which the
smoke went up into the gigantic pos1is of that
nose, BOW vanished from the face, pe7er to be
conceived OF again
The front part of the SPHINX is that OF o
man, the hinder part Is that OF lion coucbant.
Inrhe time of Pliney it was sixty feet heb,
its length 40 feet. The head to DAY is twenty
seven feet high. In the year 1915 it was halt
buried 10 the sand Salt, the AbyssiDian
traveller, and CavigiIis, an Italian, set to work
to clear it until it rose above the sard forty
feet. They discovered flight of stone STEPS
between the paws leading to the temple below
the statue. The temple end steps are again
hurried in the sand. -Leher from Eoupt.

TIE Mont GEMS TUNNEL.-The close OF
the present year will witness, unless some IN
expected hindrancc occur, the completion OF
the greatest triumph of modern engineering,
the tunnel of Mont Gents. (This name, b.
the way, though generally used is misnomer.
the tunnel really passing under Mont
Freius.) In calling it the greatest triumph OF
modern engineering, we do not mean that, like
some of the achievements of that profession, it
is marvellous for the continual appearance OF
novel difficulties, requiring ever new miracles
of ingenuity and audacity TO cope with them !;
but it is the triumph OF human skill and pa
thence over one gigantic problem-how to bore
through seven and half miles of solid granite.
