Flames in a COlliery,

SHENANDOAH, Pa, July %-When the
miners employed at the Kuickerbocker
colliery near here went to work Friday
morning large volume of smoke was seen
issuing from the mouth of the slope which
precludsd their entrance. The mine was then
entered by another entrance and the engine
house at the foot OF the slope was dis
covered to be in flames Work was sus-
pended at the colliery and all the bands that
could be sent down were put to work to ex-
tinguish the flames, which by that time had
spread to the coal and threatened the de
struction OF the colliery. All the force
that could be concentrated on the work was
fighting the flames with hopes of finally
suppressing them The origin is not known.

The matter of redemption of bonds
by the federal government is in as
good shape as could be desired. The
volunteer call, that is not for bonds
OF specific numbers, but to redeem
any three per cents. presented, is ex-
tended indefinitely. All bonds so
presented will be redeemed until
further notice. The $4,000 so
called were promptly surrendered.
This proves an improvement in the
business OF the country. Capital is
finding better avenues of Investment
than the Federal bonds at three per
cent. Should this voluntary surren-
der still go on it will evidence an in
dustrial era not felt before in u gener-
alton.
