TAKEN OFF THE BAT,


There's a symmetry of motion
To my sympathetic notion
In the pitcher as he curves the bali;
There's an idyl great In dlctlon;
Quite exciting as a fiction,
In the batter when he flies the WALL
And the pose of grace and beauty
OF the catcher doing duty,
Is an epic quite exceling all.
But for poetry of notion,
To my unpretentious notiori
There's nothing like an umpire's gail:
The Arcadlas', of Weissport were
''laid out" by the Athletics, of Mauch
Chunk, last Saturday, by score of to

Slatington, will not play for a purse OF

the members of that club TO crawl mi

The melancholy note Of the "ehesthtit"

through the vaulted chambers of the

Harvest Sermon.

Or last Sunday Rev, J: IT. Kuder
preached the annual harvest sermon in
the Lutheran church, on corner Of
Northampton and Iron streets, to a very
large audience. The reverend gentle
nah spoke OF the visibility Of Gods
goodness as displayed in the passing of
demonstrating us to look from ma
ture up to natures God; and in graft
tude and thanks acknowledge His good
ness and mercy. He spoke Of the plen:
tiful harvest which had just been gath
cred in, and presented very forcibly to
his hearers lessons which might be
learned from this bountiful season and
the Binding obligation we owe Him who
rules over us In protecting us from the
fever epideuiics which rage so fearfully
in the neighboring towns. God in his
innate wisdom has been merciful in pro-
tecting us and in gratitude we should
give thanks to him. In conclusion he
urged upon his hearers earnestness and
iaitlfulness in the discharge Of christian
duties.
"All that Spring with bounteons hand!
Scatters DER this smiling land;
All that liberal Autumn pours
From her overhowIng stores.
These TO Thee, our God, we owe,
source whence all our blessiags flow
Aud Tor these our souls shan raise
Grateful vows and solemn praise"

The Coal Trade Outlook.

The anthracite coal trade ig Sepfe-
sented in all quarters to be In good
condition. Stocks at tidewater shipping
points have been greatly reduced, and
the advances ordered last week nave
strengthened the market although the
circular is still shaded. Tie fall season
has opened with a good demand that
promises 10 continue until the close OF
navigation. There is also a good inquiry
from the east. Orders that we're with
held in expectation of further reduction
in prices are now coming into the market
There is more general distribution OF
the different sizes. Manufacturers
having experienced an improved busi-
ness are making larger demand for
the sizes they use and this, i'm connection
with the activity in the domestic Goals,
places the trade in better condition than
for some time.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany's iutimatiOn that il will possibly
transport coal over the Sehu5Ikffl Valley
line at rate of about lc. per ton pei
mile, against l S-4e.' per ton per mile,
the rate now obtained, caused some con
Germ among the carrying companies this
week. IL is certain that the Pennsyl,
Ysnia will make no further advance IN
! the tolls.
