The Mormons of Pima, Ariz., have
requested Gov. Znlick to supply them
with arms to protect themselves from
Apaches. This action on the part OF
the Mormons is causing much com
ment, as it is well known to the local
inhabitants they have always bees
friendly to Apaches, having frequent
~ supplied them with food, horses
and arms. It is believed that the
hostiles need armes and that the Nor
mons will give those furnished them
to the Indians if the governor com
plies with their request.

{ ehn, the Easton Forger

An Easton despatch Of the gath ult..
says: Hahn, the notorious forger, goes
to jail under four years sentence pro-
nounced to-day by Judge Reeder. Hahn
was Sydney kessler's friend and when
Kessler would not help Hahn out of a
forgery scrape Hahn went back on him
and told ugly things about Kessler' $
accounts while Treasurer of the county.
This was the beginning of Kessler' S
troubles. Hahn was indicted on sixteen
charges of forgery and larceny and he
pleaded guilty to half of them. These
aggregated about 81, 200 and in passing
sentence the Court, besides sending
Hahn to Jail, imposed fines amounting
to $500 and costs. Hahn was represented
6v Frank Reel, r bro her of the Judge
who imposed the sentence.

The Coal Trade.

The Philadelphia Ledger in its weekly
coal review article says: "Thc anthra-
cite coal trade continues in about the
same condition as last noted. General
quictness is the ruling feat ure, and there
is no indication that the trade will be-
come very active until after the sumner
months. Some operators are refusing
TO book orders for future delivery at the
ruling figures. but others are quite will
ing to accept all the contracts, either
large or small, at present prices for de-
livery during May or June, that they
can secure. We understand that the
Eastern agents Of the Reading Company
have been unusually successful in selling
large quantities of coal for future de-
livery, and it is stated that the orders
already booked by that company will
tax its shipping facilities until late in
the season.

The adoption by the U. S. Senate
of Mr.. Plumb's bill restricting the own
ership of real estate in the territories
to American citizens, has turned atten
ton to the evil which the bill is in
tended to remedy. 1t has grown TO
much greater proportions than is popu-
larly supposed, an examination disclos-
ing the fact that more than 80, 900, 900
acres of land are owned by foreigners
and by corporations composed wholly
Of foreigners. London investors own
in Texas 100000 acres, while the
Holland Company claims the title Of
4, soc, 900 acres in New Mexico. These
two holdings alone exceed the area of
Massachusetts by more than 1000, 900
acres. One man, the Marquis of
Tweeddale, has an estate of 100000
acres, or more than twice the size of
Rhode Island, while the Duke of Suth-
erland has 425 5000 acres.

Where Plate Glass Is Made.

Many people think that the large panes
OF plate glass now adorning the front of
the stores of several Elkton merchants
are made in France, as it is generally
spoken of as French plate. "Bystander"
writes in the Philadelphia Ne~s: "For-
merly the best plate glass in the world
was manufactured in Paris; now it is
made in Pittsburg, Pa. In Washington
county there is an unlimited supply of
the finest glass sand, and by means of
natural gas that uniformity of tempera-
ture is maintained in the annealing
chamber of the furnaces which is so es-
sential in the manufacture of glass. The
entire absence of smoke, dust, cinders
and sulphur insures perfect glass, with
out tleck or spot. Not only is the best
window glass and plate glass manufac.

fed shades have been and are now man

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, July 6.-Au ex-
ira force of accountants went to work

dent Gillingham SAID today that is was
doubtful if the regular books of the COM

Bonds have been returned now to the
amount of $1,000, 900, and still the direc-
tors are unable to designate the fraudu-
lent bonds In addition to the embezzle-
ment of $50, 600 of the funds on deposit
at the Provident Life and Trust Com.
pany, the investigation has revealed thus
far further defalcation'of $40, 600 and
over at the Philadelphia Bank, all of
which was concealed by false entries in
the books.
The Press says: Sufficient has been
learned by those having in charge the

that it was only necessary to keep the

A MERITED REBUKE.

Hon. William Pinkney Whyte, a
prominent Democrat, ex-mayor of Balti
more, Ex-Governor and United States
Senator, was one of the speakers on the
occasion of the Baltimore business mems
visit to Havre-de Grace last week. In the
course of his address Gov. Whyte said:
81 have been temperance man and
teetotaler from my childhood, and l am
glad that we have struck a town in
which whisky mas no command, and for
this reason only accepted the invitation
to come among you"
There are several points about this
declaration worthy of especial notice.
the first is, That no matter how distin-
guished a man may be, no matter to
what eminence he may have at
tanned, he feels that it adds to has
stature, makes him more a man, to be
able to say that he been an abstainer
from the use of Intoxicating liquors. He
recalls the fact with great personal satis-
faction; he alludes to it with just and
proper pride; he is honored and respected
for it by all people whose respect is worth
having.
Second, For community to decree
the banshment of the dram-shops, is TO
raise itself at once in the estimation of
neighboring communities. Even those
who cannot or do not throw off this de-
m 1ralizing incubus instinctively respect
those of their neighbors who do; and
people of worth and intelligence know
that in speaking words of commentator
of and to their fellows. no higher praise
can be accorded them than to recognize
their fidelity to principle and their 10y
atty to their own manhood in freeing
themselves from this vice and blight.
Third, the unintentional rebuke thus
administered by Gov. Whyte to many of
those concerned in the reception of the
visitors, was perhaps the most striking
thing about the incident. and must have
brought blush to many faces. And it

ufactdged at cost much less than the
prime cost of the toughest and common
est glassware of former days. Notice
ably among these may be mentioned
moss agate ware, the colors of which
blend together precisely like the gem
after which it is named. A large bowl
of this beautiful ware may be obtained
in a retail store in Pittsburg for twenty
cents, at which price the retail dealer
realizes profit of eight or nine cents.
This single illustration goes farther than
anything else would toward demonstra-
ting what natura! gas has done for Pitts

THE last Maryland Legislature amend
ed the present State school law by pro-
viding that every pupil be instructed as
to the effects of alcohol and narcotics
upon the human system, and recon-
mended the county school boards to
adopt and use text books prepared in
accordance with this amendment.
At the recent meeting of the Mary
land Teachers Association the Rev.
John Squier is reported as strenuously
opposing a resolution commencing this
action of the Legislature.
We are not disposed to criticise this
reported action of Mr.. Squier without
knowing the particular grounds of his
opposition. Upon the merits of the
proposition, we are decidedly in favor
of educating the young thoroughly
upon the evils of alcohol and opium,
and believe that the measure is wise
one, and we'll calculated to subserve the
best interests of society, in the present,
as we'll as the rising generation of it.
