Only RumorS.

There is a red rash, following mala-
rial fever, or sometimes accompanying
it, and which is nothing more danger
Gus than the prickly heat, now in the
city. Several persons have mistaken
this for scarlet fever and have hastily
called in doctor. Thus it is that ru-
mors of scarlet fever have been going
about the city for some days. 1t is a
crime, and there is a penalty provided,
for physician that to report imme-
diately to the health officer any con-
tagious cases he may have, and as
not have been reported to this official,
of course there is none here. If any
outbreak of contagious diseases occur,
DR.. Braunnagel, health officer, prom
ises to have daily bulletins published

THE LITTLE MAY'R.

There was little may'r,
Who had a little hair
On the summit of his head, head, head
And d. he didn't care
For the council anywhere,
Or the people he had bled, bled, bled.
To hear the fellow swagger
You'd think keg of lager
Was foaming in his head, head, head
And many gleesome night
He seemed to have the blight
When carted to his bed, bed, bed.
1t was habit of his,
And he called the custom biz,
To raise the very Ned, Ned, Ned,
With his poor deluded crowd
Whenever they thought aloud,
Or kicked 'gainst being led, led, led.
When he pulled his thin mustache,
Twas token that sour mash
Was brewing in his head, head, head;
Or that he had an eye
On some antiquated rye,
Which he looked upon when red, red,
red.
He was vote cOrraler,
And a more outlandish "feller"
For an office never bled, bled, bled;
But he quickly fell behind,
For his friends were of the kind
That mostly on frijoles fed, fed, fed.
But an idea came along
From advancement's brainy throng
And bumped against his head, head,
head;
When a flash like dynamite
Showed him higher than kite,
And his fragments very dead, dead,
dead.

and the recorder fined him S25 for
beating and striking, but he must

for Coke-Powderly.
READING, Pa, Jan. oL-Around every
colliery IN the Schuykill region there are
veritable mountains of coal dirt which con-
sists mostly of screenings taken from the
mines. This dirt has accumulated for thirty
and more years. and some manufacturers are
now using it mixed with bitumInous in rum
ming their establishments. They pay the
company IS cents a ton and the freight
charges From this it can be seen to what
desperate straits the people of this section are
put to- Coal men and the public are everywhere
clamoring for coal. The company has be-
come so thoroughly alarmed that six or eight
trains have been sent to the Wyoming coal.
fields TO bring coal to this city over the Lee
high Valley and East Pennsylvania roads,
The opinion is general that the Wyoming
miners will strike il the Reading company's
engines and cars are used to haul the coal
they mine. a strike in the bituminols and
coke regions is also looked for if the compa-
ny continues shipping that class of coal to
this section.
The Reading company have given notice
at Shamokin, Pottsville and other dispatch
ing points that they will hereafter not.be re-
sponsible for board or lodging of employees
The new hands must therefore hunt for lo1g-
ings themselves The services of a large
number of coal and iron special policemen
were dispensed with Friday, there being no
apparent need for their services.
The Reading companys under officials are
doing all in their power to quietly get the
men back to their work. The bosses Are all
vieing with one another to see who can re-
sumo first, hoping thereby to gain favor
in the estimation Of their superiors.

men employed, the work amounted to but
little-the force averaging only from i've to

foolish to attempt to deny that the strikers
are solid and there is no indication in any
quarter of weakening, neither has there
been any attempt at violence
Messrs, Sharkey, Lee, aud Cahill returned to

WASHINGTON CITY, Jan. 2l.-The house
Friday received and referred a petition from
the National Board of Trade convention IA
voring liberal appropriations for waterway
improvements. Springer made personal
explanation regarding statement by Kelly
Thursday, and denied the imputation that
he had claimed fee of $1,000 for
inserting clause in the bill appropriate
ing money to the Philadelphia centennial,
by which the money was returned to the
government. He had appeared in court for
the government in the case and afterward
had asked that the court Of claims fix the
value of his services, but his request had not
been acted upon by congress. The Thobe-
Carlisle case was then taken up and
after Thobs had addressed the house
in his own behalf the resolutions Of the ma
jority of the elections committee, declaring
against reopening the case, we're voted on.
The Republicans, with the exception of
few who voted aye, and Brumm, Hovey, and
Laidlaw, who voted nay, refrained from vot-
ing on the ground that they were not suf
lciently informed on the subject. The vote
was ayes, lao; nays, 3-no quorum. The
house then adjourned.

GOOD manning scnrme

Landlord Kemble has an interesting
map in the office of the Kemble house
which is we'll worthy of the time and
effort Of any to inspect it, He has taken
a map Of the middle and northwestern
states. and with Muscatine as centre,
has drawn circles, the distance between
each representing 90 miles, and the
larger circle of radius of $50 miles,
takes in fully one-sixth of the population
of the United States. Air lines drawn
from the principal cities in Illinois, Min
nesota, Kansas, Nebraska, Dakota, MIS-
souri, and Kentucky show that Muscatine
is the most central point in this vast
area of rich and fertile country Musca-
tine is on an air line from st. Paul to St.
Louis, and only 16 miles from one from
Chicago to Omaha. An air line from
Bismarck, Oak. to Louisville, Kentucky,
would pass directly through Muscatine.
The wonderfully central location of this
beautiful little city from so many of the
larger cities will be general surprise to
all those who see this unique map which
Mr.. Kemble has so ingeniously made -
