THEY WILL LOSE $4,000.
Allegheny City May Not Use Coal for Fuel at
the Water Works.

the Water Works.
Allegheny City will lose $12, 900 per year
if it goes back to the use of coal at the
water works, as was decided upon by the
committee on Monday night. The action of
the committee caused considerable comment
on the Northside last night Everyone ad-
mitted that the gas company was charging too
much for fuel. but did not think it was good
policy to pay Sl2 900 more a year for fuel mere
ly to get even with the company
The matter will come up at the meeting of
Councils tomorrow evening, and it is believed
the action of the committee will not be sus-
tanned.

lifion of the Latter.
In that sensational States evidence case
of wholesale brass thievery, wherein gigantic
fences were "given away" to the Court on
Monday, the jury went out yesterday and
didn't come back. The testimony taken, be-
fore they went, was to the effect that E. Con-
nors. who kept junk SHOP gave boys whisky
and induced them to steal from Oliver Bros
mills. Detective Wheatly said that he had told
Connors to notify him If any of the boys
brought any such things to him to sell, but he
had not done so.
Willie Brooks testified that Connors told him
not to steal railroad brasses, however as he
would be watched. Connors gave him sack
to put the goods in.

A RATHER curious episode in natura
history occurred on board the French
steamboat Abd-el-Kader during the
passage from Marsei,les to Algiers.
Just as the vessel was about two hours
out the sky became quite black with
swallows. It was then about 6 o'clock
in the evening. The birds alighted in
thousands on the sails, ropes, and yards
of the Abd-el-Kader. After a perky
survey of the deck from their eminences
aloft they descended coolly on deck,
hoped about among the sailors, and
eventually found their way into the
cabins, both fore and aft. The birds
were evidently fatigued after long
fight, and allowed themselves to be
caught by tho people of the ship, who
gave them a welcome reception and pro-
vided them with food, which they en-
joyed heartily. The little winged
strangers remained all night on the
vessel, and in the morning at Z o'clock
the whole flock made for land.

Time Is Money.

Time well employed produces money
or an equivalent gain of some kind.
Time idled away or wasted away upon
some unnecessary or useless labors not
only yields no return, but represents a
loss of opportunity that cannot be re-
placed. One may regain any other
thing that is squandered save time.
Once gone, it is gone for all eternity.
No more important lesson can be given
to the young than that on the value of
time. It may be passed by unheeded,
for on this subject more than any other
men seem determined to learn by ex-
perience; but warnings should never
theless be given, that there may be as
early an awakening as may be to the
irreparable loss of wasted time. Even
the best of men arrived at middle age
are sure to have regrets for lost oppOr.
tunities, for wasted time. Looking
back with the knowledge gaine.. by
experience, they can see how much
better they might have ordered their
lives If they had made the best possible
use of their time. Such knowledge can
not be expected in younger men. The
time will come when they, too, will look
back with regret; but they should be
given early warning from the expert
ence of others, and be taught as we'll as
may be that time is money, not in the
vulgar sense, but in that higher one

STOCK AND FARM.

Caldwell Journal: The first cattle
trade of any moment that has been con-
summated this season was made Monday,
about thirteen hundred head Of and 5
year old steers, yearlings, COWS and
calves, being sold for the snug little
sum of $4,000.
Manhattan Nationalist: Jack Huey
has sixty acres of as fine wheat as ever
grew in Kansas. We are informed that
he has contracted to sell his wheat as it
is threshed from the shock at $1.0O per
bushel. Being relieved of the stacking.
sweating" and storage, his wheat will
then give him what is equal to $1.25 per
bushel.
Medicine Lodge Index: The Medicine
Valley Stock Farm, E. P. Miller, prop
rietor, Pardee & Clark, managers, has
received from the east, a carload of eight
full-blood Holstein COWS and one cali,
the latter's sire being the noted Pieterje
Sd, the best k.own Holstein in the coun-
try. Two of the COWS are from the farm
of DR.. Miller's brother, in New York
state, and six are from noted breeder
in Pennsylvania. The eight COWS cost
up in the thousands cf dollars. They
are all with calf by thoroughbred bulls,
and their issue must add material value
to the already valuable herd of Hol-
stems of the stock farm.

fine horses raised in this county have

The oldest bank notes are the "Aying
money" or convenient money" first
issued in China, 2697 B. C. Origin
ally these notes were issued by the
Treasury, but experience dictated q
change to the banks under Government
inspection and control. A writer in q
provincial paper says that the early
Chinese "greenbacksr were in all essen
tails similar to the modern bank notes,
bearing the name of the bank, date Of
issue, the number of the note, the sig.
nature of the official issuing it, indica-
tions of its value in figures, in works,
and in the pictorial representation in
coins or heaps of coins equal in amount
to its face value, and q notice of the
pains and penalties of counterfeiting.
Over and above all was q laconic ex-
hortation of industry and thrift: PRO
duce all you can; spend with econo-
my. The notes were printed in blue
ink on paper made from the fiber of the
mulberry tree. One issued in 1889 B.

LUCKY Tl-KET HOLDER.

Winona (Miss.) Times, May 8.
Mr.. Jennings Topp, Book-keeper for d.
D. wilkins and Co., of Duck Hill, in this
county was the fortunate holder of one
twentieth of ticket No. $3.50, which drew
the Second Capital Prize of 100000 in the
Louisiana State Lottery Drawing on April
18th last. This entitled Mr.. Topp to 5000
which was promptly paid on presentation of
his ticket. Mr.. Topp has held tickets in
drawings on several other occasions, and at
different times drew small sums-enough to
about cover his expenses. On this occasion
he drew handsome sum-an amount that
gives him a good start and makes him indie
pendent. He is clever gentleman and his
many friends congratulate him on his good
luck. Our Duck Hill friends have always
been quite lucky in the drawings of the Lou
isiana State Lottery. Last fall Mr.. Dink
Butt drew $500, and other parties have drawn
small sums, ranging from S. to $75. These
facts inspire gaeat deal of confidence in
the fairness of the drawing. Most of the
tickets procured were purchased direct from

Atchison Champion: Atchison en-
Joys the distinction Of having among
it's many well-to-do and prosperous ctt-
izens. the wealthiest man in Kansas.
This gentleman is interested in more
profitable enterprises; owns more land
in nearly every state and territory In
the Union; is interested in more paying
mining properties, owns stock in more
banks, has more actual cash invested in
corporations, pays more taxes, and has
larger net annual income than any
other man in the state. And one of the
many pleasant things about this gen.
tleman is the fact that he is not purse
proud, neither does he make any osten-
tatious display Of his wealth. He moves
about quietly and unostentariously, SUI
perintending his vast business intereste
with more ease than some men conduct
business representing only a few hun
dred dollars.
Frederick T. Roberts, M. D., Physi-
clan to and Professor of Clinical Medi-
cine at University College Hospital,
London, Eng, says: "Bright's Disease
has no symptoms of its own, and may
long exist without the knowledge of
the patient or practitioner, as no pain
will be felt in the kidneys or that vicin-
ity." This accounts for many people
dying with Bright's Disease, or advanced
kidney malady. The disease is not sus-
pected until it reaches a fatal period.
II Warmers Safe Cure is used at the
proper time, the fatality from that dis
ease would be greatly decreased. DR..
Thompson also says: 'More adults are
carried off in this country by chronic
kidney disease than by any other one
malady e1cspt consumption"
Dighton Herald: Daniel Jacobs, of
Grigsby, relates strange phenomenon.
During the late electric storm he and
his wife were awakened from their sleep
by light and also noise in their
room. like unto the conclusion of box
of parlor matches. They discovered
that one leg of the stove had become
electrified and it was jumping, hopping,
swapping and dancing a jig on that leg
only, and it kept it up for fully half an
hour. Mr.. Jacobs was afraid to go to
it and try to snuff it out, for fear he
would get it on him, SO they vacated
the room and peeped through crack
to watch its electrical capers. A gal
vanized pipe sat upon several feet of
brick flue, and it is remarkable how this
electricity made connections with the
stove, and then took fancy to only one
leg.
