PARIS, Jan. N.-Gambetta's speech in the

quent, and was applauded even by his adver-
saries, especially the part in which he repudI-

that the clause in favor of the scrutin de Ilste

that the final paragraph of the resolution,
which the government opposed, namely, the

the decision it had just recorded on Barodet's

A crowd waiting for train at an up

there with small tin can which he set
down on the platform There was quite
a crowd present, and among the gang a
farmer with big yellow dog, and g boy

cious canine over by the can Then he
produced cord and tied the can to the

watched by many of the bystanders with
keen interest. When the Job was done

chance to run. But the animal didn't. 1t
just stood and looked miserable. The
crowd whooped to start him. The COM
motion attracted the notice of the farmer
and the owner of the can. The farmer
was awful mad. He wanted to WALTON
whoever tied the thing to his dog. and
was about to release him; but the old man
interposed:
"Run for your lives!" he cried. "There's
dynamite in that can, and the minute the
dog starts things will be scattered round
here like an earthquake had called"
A great change came o'er the crowd.
Their looks of mirthful interest faded.

Coal Product of the United States.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The census office
has just published its report on the product
ion of bitumous coal, from which it appears
the total amount mined in the United States
during the census year 1880, was 1890, $50
tons, of which total 29, ,S42 ,240 tons were pro-
duced in Appalachian coal fields, Allegheny
county, Pennsylvania, furnished over one
tenth, and the states of Pennsylvania. Illinois,
and Ohio, nearly three-fourths of the entire
product. The average price per ton at the
mines, In 1880, was $l.22, while in 1870 it was
81. at cost of 88lcents. An average of43l,-
5S-100 tons was raised per man, and 665 per
cent. of the years working time. or about
twenty days per man, was lost in strikes. Suf-
fcient inform alton was gathered to justify the
assumption that exhausted fields form but
very small fraction of the total available coal
land. Attention is called to the fact that
although the value of the product has fallen
wages have not eorrespondingIy decreased,
and totals prove gain of nearly third of a
million dollars annually, in favor of labor.
The anthracitel product was 3S646, 1896 tons,
ne arly all furnished by the state of Pennsyl-
vania, making the total product of this
country for the censns year. II, ,O67, $40 TONS
