THE GREAT SLATE CENTRE OF PENN.
SYLvANIA.

a correspondent of the Philadelphia
Press, writing from Slatington, Pa,
says: The slate business is rather
brisker than usual this season, especial.
ly here at Slatington, the chief slate
quarrying, mining and manufacturing
district in the country. Here are To-
Gated the quarries and works of the
American, the Lehigh, the Girard, the
Riverside, the Franklin, II. Williams
and other companies, all of which are
in prosperous condition. The slate
formation of this region the quality
of slate being of various grades of
hardness-peculiarly adapts it for the
various purposes for which slate is
used. The larger veins are of the
best roofing slate material in the coun-
try, while the smaller veins, of a softer
nature, are not so well adapted for
roofing purp )ses, and are used for man
tells, blackboards, school slate, etc.
The paving slate, manufactured from
the large veins here found, is superior
to that of any other locality, both in
quality and appearance. Much en-
terprise is here manifested among the
slate men, and the different companies
are engaged in extending their works
in order to accommodate the extensive
trade which the business here has es-
tablished. The American Slate Com
pany is increasing its capital to $780,
600, for the purpose of enlarging its
already extensive works, and for build
ing a large number of houses to &C.
commodate its laborers. This great
quarryng and mining district is high
" favored with railroad and water
transportation facilities, nearly all the
large companies having branches laid
on their premises from the main road.
Slatington is the terminus of the Berks
County Railroad, which is an exten-
sicn of Wilmington and Reading Rail-
road, thus enabling operators here to
ship directly south.

The Titusville Courier says: Last
Wednesday morning man was found
drowned in the Allegheny river, about
a mile below Warren. His body was
floating in an eddy. From the ap-
pearance of the body it would appear
that he had not lain lcng in the water,
and the indications were that he must
have been violently treated. The
affair is considerably involved in mys-
terry. 1t is thought from letter found
in one of the pockets of the deceased
that his name was John Scheony.

One James Goldsmith a brake
man on the gravel train which stops
here, met with an accident on Sunday
which will render him cripple the
rest of his days. The accident hap
pened near Oil City, and we take the
following particulars from the Derrick
of Monday:
About 2 o'clock he was assisting in
turning table on which was an en-
gine, when his foot was caught beween
the end of tho moving rail and the
end of the stationary rail, and the
skin torn on the upper and under side
between the great toe and that next to
it. The muscles were ground to
pulpy mass, and Drs. Davis and Da-
vinney decided on the amputation of
the foot. The unfortunate man was
suffering terrible agony. Chloroform
was administered, and the end of the
foot taken off short distance behind
the toes, by saving through the two
outside metatarsal bones ahd unjoint.
ing the three middle ones.
He was comparatively easy after
the operation. Throughout his trying
ordeal he bore himself manfully. I'm
mediately upon the occurrence Of the
accident locomotive had been des-
patched fer his wife. She arrived
about the time of the completion of
the operation, which took place in an
upper room of the Taylor House, but
was not allowed to enter his room un-
til it was set to rights, and the suffer
er's foot was bandaged and under the
cover. He had requested that she
should be told that his foot had been
"pinehed," and showed much less dis
tress than she. After the foot was off
he inquired Of the doctors how he
should be able to kick anybody with
that foot, and wanted to know if there
was anybody present who could tell
him where he could get hand organ.

~ The Legislature Of Mis-
sJI.i 10 discussing proposition to
give juries, at their discretion,
power to commute the death penal.
ity in homicide cases 10 impriSon-
ment for not less than twenty
years. a bill making such a pro-
vision has been favorably reported
in the House. The ST. Louis
! Globe makes these comments
thereon:
1t is to be hoped that the bill
will become q law. The almost
irresistible temptation to acquit
when any other possible verdict
will be fatal is found TO virtually
annul the law against murder.
JurIss resolutely refuse to take
life. 1t will, therefore, do no harm,
-at least, to try the proposed change
of the law as an experiment. An
additional reason for it is the fact
that the existing law of murder is
simply preposterous in it's failure
to discriminate between crimes
that differ vastly in magnitude.
1t declares the passion-frenzied
homicide to have acted with de.
liberateness and in cold blood, and
| prescribes the same verdict and
fate for one who Stays the violator
of his domestic peace as for muir
der for gain. This should be re.
NEEDED, and the bill will be step
toward much needed reformation
of our penal code.
