A Fall of Black Snow.

From the Mt. Pleasant (Pa.) Times.
Persons from Laurel Hill report a
queer story from that section. A gen.
tIeuan from there remarked that they
had fall of black snow last week
The snow fell to the depth of half an
inch, and instead of the usually white
flaky element it was dark and sooty in
color immediately following the 0e-
scent of the snow, families residing In
the neighborhood were attacked with
sore throat aud the younger portion with
measeles. The theory advanced Is that
the smoke, SCOT and other impurities
from the hundreds of coke ovens in this
vicinity had been collected in the at
mosphere ard by an unusual direction
of the wind had been driven to Laurel
Hill and fell, mingled with snow storm.
That the measels and sore throat that
followed was due to the fact of these
sooty particle. collecting and retaining
germs of the diseases in this place aud
vicinity, and contaminating the atmos-
phere where they fell.

IL the sweeping Republican victory
last November the Republican party
in this State elected a majority OF
the members of the Legislature. and
that insures the election of United
States Senator The Democracy lost
the prize in fair contest before the
people. and of course do not expect
that the Legislature will send Dem
ocratic Senator to take the place OF
William Wallace. Up to this time
the Republicans have not been able
to agree upon a man to represent the
State at Washington. The two prom
inent candidates, Oliver and Grow,
are still in the field There is no
visible evidence that either tine Oliver
or Grow people viii cast their vote
for a Democratic candidate. To do
SO, would be to reverse the verdict OF
the people i'll Nogember. 1t Is true
that the question of United States
Senator was not directly before the
people oil the State. but it was gen
orally understood that a Republican
victory implied or included the Office
of Senator. The Republicans that
act in manner to change the verdict
of the people as expressed at the
polls in November, 1880, may expect
t. be classed as among the unsafe
people, and entirely unworthy of po-
htical trust. 1t is the demand of the
Republican party that Republican
United States Senator be sent to
Washington to fill the place to be
made vacant by Senator Wallace next
March.

Land sometimes reveals their past

that the youngest child was lying at

letter addressed to him in the Polish

dream was true, the youngest child
in Europe being very i'll indeed, and
the European wife begging him to
send her some money. The Ohio

the worst feminine qualities almost

not the green or gray-eyed blondes

are the women who delude and de-
stroy men; who never forgive an in

and talk sweetly, and put ON airs of
meek piety or high art and refine
