prevents there being any life or
snap to the trade, at any point. At
Boston bituminous coal moves very
quietly. 1t is probable that some of
the Goals now pressing into the mar
ket can be had at 1915 delivered.
Prices range from that figure to $685..
Clearfield coal has been taking the
market in interior New York, but
the prices for this commodity are
said to be likely to be advanced.
The state board of railroad commits
sioners has ordered a reduction in
freight charges on soft coal, and
other heavy freights, in car loads, to
take effect on all the railroads of
Missouri on September LIST. Under
the new limitation Of rates the
charges shall not exceed IS cents per
ton of 1000 pounds for the first ten
miles or less distance, with 5 cents
per ton for each additional ten miles
or fractional part thereof. The
Chicago market on soft coal appears
to be sadly cut up, and no chance of
profit prevails.-Coal Trade Journal.
The bituminous trade is quiet.
The Alexandra line contract, about
$4,000 tons, referred to last week, has
gone to a Clearfeld firm, as has also
another contract for 5000 or 1000
tons, and prices remain nominally
$2.75 to So f. o. b.
The transfer of the South Penn
sylvana road to the Pennsylvania
Railroad will, it is said, certainly take
place, and the indications are, that
the Pennsylvania Railroad will be-
fore very long have much more to
say than it now has, in the anthracite
business also. Uuless ali its past
history is forgotten and a new policy
adopted, this would certainly forecast
lower tolls and prices for anthracite.
There is nothing of Importance to
note in bituminous coal. Cargo lots
are selling at $3.25@$3.35 delivered,
with some inferior Goals at less
price. Provincial culm is steady at
$2.25@$2.30 Acknowledgment

A MINER at Coal Valley, W. Va,
says there are too many men in that
district, and that coal is being dis

School Afatrs-Patrick O'Rourke,
an earnest and successful young teach
er, has resigned his position as princi-
pal of the Parkersburg school. He
will spend year or two in the Dan
vile Qndiana) Normal School.
School houses in this vicinity, under
the personal superintendent of Com
missioner McCulloh, are being gener-
ally overhauled.
A new addition has been added to
the GERMANTOWN school
The building at Parkersburg is being
rehoored, replastered, and put in a
better condition generally.
Work at Frostburg public school is
progressing finely. The replastering
is now finished. The outhouses are
about done, and the flooring of two
rooms completed. The Board is con-
sidering various plans about heating,
but has come to no final conclusion.
1t is assured, however. that some plan
to heat the building more thoroughly
than heretofore will be adopted.
The Board, it is understood, will
spare no effort to make our school as
comfortable and well-equipped as any
in the county. 81
The second examination that was to
take place on the 18th and 14th has
been declared off, there being now an
overplus of teachers in the county. 1t
is moreover understood that, the sup
ply of teachers being far in excess of
the demand, examinations will contin
ue to increase in requirement, with
view to secure the "survival of the
fttest."
Among successful candidates at the
recent examination of teachers were
Misses Anna Maurey, Mary J. Thomas
and Rose Haberlein, pupils of the 7th
Grade room iu our public school.
This is creditable to these young ladies
when it is remembered that about one
lalf of the applicants, and some of
hem old teachers, were turned down.

there is supposed to be in every large

This is an error. A very large man
or woman is never fat. A small per-
son may become so, the accretion
coming from augmented contentment
of mind. Wealth is very apt to lay a
solid foundation for the accumulation
Of grease, because it brings exemption
from worry. Hence, everyone may
