WETTING CoALD-PeOple who prefer wet

selves store of sore thrOats and other evils
consequent upon the practice. Even the fire
damp, says an exchange, which escapes from
the coal mines, arises from tho slow decompO-
sitiOn of coal at temperatures of but little
above that of the atmosphere, but under aug
mented pressure. By wetting a mass OF
lar, the mass is heated to such degree that
carburetted and sulphuretted hydrogen are
given off for long periods OF time and per-
vades the whole house. The liability of wet
coal to mischievious results under such cir
cumstances may be appreciated from the fact
that there are several instances on record Of
spontaneous combustion of coal when slowed
into the bunkers or holds of vessels. And
from this cause, doubtless, many missing coal
vessels have perished

ENTERPRIsE.-As is well known to its very
many readers, the Reading, Pa, Daily Eagle
is without doubt the best daily paper in Penn
sylvania, outside of Philadelphia Its cirCuIa-
tion, already numbering several thousand, il in
creasing so rapidly thai recently, the prOprietors
felt impelled to resort to sterotyping in order TO
get its large edition printed in time for season
able delivery TO subscribers. By stereotvping
the forms, they double their facilities for prin-
ting their paper, and thus save much valuable
time. The Eagle is probably The only paper in
the State, outside of Philadelphia, that stereo-
typs its forms. and this result is attributable
solely to the energy and Enterprise offs pro.
prietors, Messrs. Ritter Dc Hawley. By their
efforts they have placed their paper ia The front
rank of inland dailies and deserve every Bit oil
the success they have achieved.

which much information can be voucb-

present writing there 10 the same cry that
the daily production is in excess Of the de/
maud, end yet no one thinks Of saying that
there is not double the tankags necessary
for ell the oil prouduced! Why is 1t that
when $4,000 barrels Of oil per diem filed ell
the tanks in the county, that 80, coo barrels
the amour, stated by so-cal!ed reporters,
does not Inconvenience auy ore! While
no one asserts that there has been pnrti/
Gle more ,ankage erected than has been
taken DOWN."
Again we ara asked: ''Are not The diff
ferent T Plpe Lines concentrating their en-
ergies to bear the markets? Have they not
been buying indirectly, immense quantities
Of oil al 65 and so cts. net. and filing COM
tracts made at $500 cad $500: Have

Again: "Are cot ;ae Pipe Lines dire lly
