THE COAL TROUBLE.
The Strike Nearly Ended.
MINERS GOING TO WORK.

SCRANTON, April 24.-Notwithstand'
ing the agreement made in good faith
between the officers Of branch OF the
Workingmen's Benevolent Association
and Hill e. Fowler, to the effect that
they might resume operations, some Of
them have been made the objects OF the
most threatening demonstration for the
purpose of intimidating them, causing
them to a man to leave the works
Messages have been cent to them
through members of their fraternity,
that if they continue to work they had
better engage their coffins, and that
their houses would be burned and their
wives and little ones suffer a similar
fate with themselves. Their houses
have beeh surrounded at night by q
gang of men, who keep up continual
whooping and discharging of firearms.
All the military have been sent to their
homes but one company.
The Times of this morning says: 1t
is the general opinion among all classes
of our citizens that negotiations looking
to some sort ofsettlement OF the existing
troubles will he entered into at the
meeting, which is to take place at Hide
Park tomorrow. 1t is understood that
the committee of delegates have ample
power to negotiate with the represen ia
tives Of the companies independent OF
outside interference. All the men en-
ployed at McCollough's mines were dis
charged on Saturday, as also were the
clerks, engineers and others in the en-
ploy OF that firm.

ENGLISH FINANCES.
opposftion to the Budget-Proces
sion OF Match Makers.

LONDON, April 24.-The poorer classes
of the city are loud in opposition to the
Budget now under consideration by
Parliament. Numerous mass meeting
have been held in various parts Of the
CITY, attended chiefly by artisans and
trades people, and resolutions have been
passed con demning the Budget as con-
tanning measures which, if passed by
Parliament, will strike terror to many Of
their most personal interest.
A monster procession of match max
ers congregated at Bethel Green this
forenoon for the purpose os marching
to Westminster and presenting a
petition to Parliament against the
Budget. The procession was swelled
by vast additions from many OF the
poorer districts as it passed. The line
Of march selected was along the old
Bone Road and from thence up the
Strand and past Whitehall to West
minister. Several collisions with the
police occurred as the procession march
ed up the Strand, but the authorities
were powerless to stop its progress.

HEART DISEASE.
Sudden Death or Jewish Rabbi.

Yesterday about one clock our jew
ish population were startled at the an.
nOuncement that their beloved Rabbi,
Rev A. Oppcnheimer, had just fallen
dead. Upon inquiry we learn that at a
little before one o'clock p. NJ. Mr. Op-
penhemer having just finished his din
ner, was standing in his room in the act
OF oflighting his pipe with match, prcpar-
atory to taking a smoke, when, without
evincing any sign Of illness or dcrangc.
ment of the system, he suddenly fell to
the floor a lifeless corpse, without a
struggle or convulsion, simply giving one
or two feeble gasps, when all was over.
DR.. Chas. II. Ohr was Immediately sent
TOR, who, upon examination OF the body,
pronounced that death had resulted
from heart disease.
The sudden demise Of their highly
esteemed pastor causes deep regret
among his church people, and the entire
community feel a sympathy for the sud
denly hereaved widow.
Mr.. Oppenheimer came to this coun-
try from Germany some years since,
and was a resident OF Norfolk, Va, pre-
vious to his coming to Cumberland,
about two and half years ago. He
regularly held services in the Synagogue
on Centre street, and on Saturday last
he officated there in his usual piCus
and happy manner. lie was endowed
with education, talents and ability, and
was warmly loved and highly respected
by all who knew him.--CumberIdnd

Attempted Suicide.

A Pittsburgh paper says that on last
Friday afternoon, when the accommo-
dation train on the Pennsylvania Cen
tral railroad was leaving Shadyside, the
engineer noticed a man running in
front Of the train, and whistled for the
individual to leave the track. Instead
Of the would.be selcmurderer leaving
the road, he coolly and deliberately laid
his head across the rail and awaited the
coming train. The engineer ordered
down brakes, and the train not being
under full headway, he succeeded in
stopping it. The stranger refused to
give his name.

The Female COmpOsitOrs.

CHICAGO, April 24.-The Evening
Mail commenced the experiment OF
employing female" compositors. The
change is opposed by the Typographl'
cal Union, who induced their present
force to strike and hired news boys not
to sell the paper and threatened others
who gave assistance, but the paper was
issued, although late, and the expert
ment will be fully tried. 1t causes
much excitement in newspaper circles
and among labor Unions.

suicide-In.anity the Cause.

JACKSONVILLE, April 24.-Mrs. Susan
Culver, wife OF Mr.. Alonzo Culver, of
White Hall, Illinois, committed suicide
yesterday evening. The couple were
but lately married and the lady is sup
posed to have committed suicide under
a temporary fit Of insanity, caused by
sickness. Her mother was in the house
at the time and having noticed come
thing strange about her for the past
few days followed her when she retired
to her room yesterday morning, but
found the door locked. On going
around to the window she was confront

her bedside, with which the work was
done.

THE SMOKE CONSUMER.
The Sooty Nuisance Remedied.
A Practical Test with Satisfactory
Results.

On Saturday last practical test oI
McKenzie's smoke-consuming furnace
was made at Armstrong; coke ovens
near Pittsburgh, a full description o.
which we find in the newspapers. A
small furnace, about two and hall
feet high and thirty inches square, was
erected in front OF an ordinary locomo,
tive boiler, and so arranged that the
fuel was wholly consumed in the fur.
mace, and the heat and flame only con.
Quoted under the boiler, by means OF a
communicating fue. The furnace is
provided with an ordinary fire bed of
crate bars, but the front is all closed up
except a small aperture, two inches
wide by eight inches long, for the ad,
mission of air. The slack is supplied
through hopper, Immediately over the
fire bed, and combustion is started by
the air which is admitted through the
small opening already described. The
gases in the coal are here set free, and
start off with the draft towards the
boiler. An opening is left in the top Of
the furnace, about midway between the
hopper and boiler, through which a
strong current OF cold air is admitted.
In the rough model which we are now
describing, this opening is about eight
inches square The air, striking the
flame and mixing with the gases, pro.
duces what the inventor calls perfect
combustion" A brilliant white flame
is the result, so intense that no smoke
or SCOT escapes unconsumed. The
quantity OF air admitted at this point
was regulated by placing a fire brick
over the aperture, but in properly
constructed furnace the draft is regu-
lated by dampers. The flame is OF
such dazzling brightness that it pains the
eye, and compares with the sun itself in
brilliancy. The heat is so intense that
it cannot safely be applied under the
boilers directly, but it can be so regu-
lated that with its use the boilers will
sustain much less injury than by the
ordinary method Of generating steam.
The boiler used in this test was fifteen
horse power, and a pressure OF
sixty pounds was maintained, the
fuel used being at the rate Of three
bushels OF slack in ten hours. The
furnace. however can be 80 regulated
as to produce as much or as little heat
as may be required. BY throwing open
the furnace door Of the boiler, and thus
admitting an excess Of cold air, smoke
will issue in about five seconds from the
top OF the stack, and cease in about the
same time, after the door is closed.
This experiment was tried number Of
times, to show how perfectly the appara-
tus worked. All present were greatly
interested in the results, and seemed
convinced that the invention could be
applied satisfactorily in all our manu-
factories
There was also a trial OF DR.. Con
nellys apparatus for conveying the
smoke and flames from coke ovens, and
converting them into gas for feul or for
Illuminating purposes. This test was
also quite satisfactory. The fact has
been demonstrated that the gas can be
secured and handled, but it remains to
be seen whether any practical appIica-
ton can be made of the invention.
