TIE TROUBLE IN THE coal
TRADE

1t is truthfully stated that the reason
for dullness and depression in the Goa
trade is not the mildness Of the winter,
but the great capacity for producing
coal. During 1888, when the coal trade
doomed and the coal companies reaped
large profits the mines did not average
two hundred days OF work, and many
Of them exceeded one hundred days by
q narrow margin. Though for many
months of that year all the miners OF
the Schuylkill region were out on strike
and though no mine worked more than
3l4 days still the production WAS about
81 ,O0O, 900 tons, and the demand was
fully met. The highest record of pro
duction in y single year is 39.OOO,O0O.
The only reason why the output was
not greater that year and every year
since il that there was NO demand for
mt re coal.
The fact is notorious that y it'll the
present ABILITIES at hand the corporations
of the anthracite regions can mine and
ship to market &c, 000. 900 tons of anthra'
cite in any year. When we speak OF
facilities, we refer not alone to openings.
and breakers, and machinery. but also
to the men to mine the coal and run tn,
breakers and operate the machinery. AT
every mine there 10 a complement of men
sufficient to work the colliery to its full
capacity, and they .rr GIstained to re-
main idle from one-half to two-thirds
~ In ttD,A b. ct
the minoe unless some miracle should
interpose to largely increase the demand
for anthracite
The wise farmer, who sows one year
and finds that the crop which he har-
vests gluts the market, does not pursue
the suicidal course OF breaking up new
acres to the old crop; he sows for diff
ferent harvest and thus restores the equi-
librium. But the coal operators, with
an utter disregard of the fact that they
have at hand appliances sufficient to
produce double the quantity OF coal
necessary to supply the demand, rech-
leSsly proceed TO open up aud develop
new lands, induce thousands OF addl-
tional workmen to come where the labor
market IS already over-supplied, ana
practically sentence them to lives ui
poverty and suffering.
This condition of things cannot go ON
indefinitely. 1t 10 unnatural and alb
normal. 1t il hurtful to the men anu
TO the corporations now. If persisted
in it must from the nature Of things
grow worse from year To year.

Tho Wedding Ring.

Tho Wedding Ring.
The plain gold ring, q pretty thing,
Upon BRIDES fair finger,
In Roman days mid Roman ways
Whose memory still doth linger
The pretty thing, tho finger ring,
Was worn by slaves in token
That they for aye should we'll obey
In servitude unbroken.
The wedding ring, that pretty thing,
Supposed Of love q token,
Doth it not say, thou shalt obey,
Though no such vow be spoken!
The ancient slaves ore in their graves,
May Jovc their souls watch over
In modern days, mid modern ways,
They are not all in clover.
Who wear the ring, that pretty thing,
OF love sometimes q token;
Far better dead, or never wed,
Than wear the ring heart broken.

RHYMES WORTH READING.

II Chloe laughs and carols catches
OF merry roundelay,
II she trips across tho patches
Whore the sunbeams fash and play,
Ifher face is flushed and hot,
And she stops my lips with flowers
While she dances through the hours;
II her eyes are clear and BRIGHT
Like white stars upon the night,
Then know she loves me not.
But II Chloe starts not singing.
II her voice she may not find,
II her words will not be winging
Cruel dartlets for her mini,
II her cheeks in paleness dwell
While she tears in bits her roses,
breathing short in starts and closes;
II her eyes are moist and clouded,
Like blue seas in rain enshrouded,
Then know she loves mo well.

The Stove in tho Village Store.
When the twilight had deepened to darkness.
They gathered from far and near
Old farmers who plodded the distance
As pilgrims their shrines to revere;
At tho shabby old store at tho corners"
They met and they entered the door,
For the Mecca OF these old cronics
Was tho stove in the old village store.
1t was guiltless Of beautyAr polish.
And Its door WINS unskillfully hung,
But they made glad circle around It
=, And the genial warmth loosened each tongue,
SAnd they talked Of the crops ind the weather.
Twin subjects to gossip mostdear-
And the smoke from their pipes as 1t blended
Gave tinge to the whole atmosphere
Full many the tales they related,
And wondrous the yarns they spun,
And doubtful the facts that they stated,
And harmless tho wit and the fun;
But II ever discussion grow heated
1t was all without tumult OF din,
And they gave their respectful attention
Whom customer CHANGED to come in.
When the evening was spent and the hour
For tho time Of their parting had come,
They raped from their pipes the warm ashes
And reluctantly started for home;
Agreeing to meet on the morrow,
When the day with its labor was DER.
For the Mecca Of all the old cronies
Was the stove in the old village store.

Beauty's Purpose.
Our friends, the flowers, their robes OF beauty
And charge the vagraAt winds with fragrant
freight, !
Not on the pleasure Of proud man to wait,
Who knows scarce one midst myriad blossoms
fair
But that the insects, lowering in the DIR,
May Flora's children make p-rpetuate;
Allured by sight and scent themselves to
safe, !
From bloom to bloom they potent pollen bear
When truths eternal unto earth are sent
They find their birth in ever gracious guise
Through poets souls, to whom the power ie
lent
To give them lasting favor In mems eyes,
And thus make beauty serve divine intent
To build the world into paradise.

And have for many ages,
Before the railroads were, and when
The public rode in stages.
Ican't remember whence came
And cen the oldest liar
Can not date so distant namo
But can name one prior.
While time shall last I'll still be So
Naught can destroy me, never,
For trains may come and trains may 20
But I'll stay here forever.
Oh, many scores Of men I've seen
Come smilingly to greet me,
And mutter something low and mean
Because they couldn't cat me-
They tried to cut me with dirk =,
In coffee sought to drown me;
But oil their schemes have failed to worn
I'm stll just as they found me-
And when they're gone I'll yet be So
They can destroy me never
For hungry men may come and 60,
But III stay here forever.
Sometimes it makes me sad to SEQ

The Usual Result.

1t ia not 20 be denied that good sew
ing machine is one of the most important
appurtenancgs Of the modern house
hold
We thought we had a good machine
until one day the agent of the NEW HOME
presented himself al our door and pro-
ceeded to deliver an grafton upon its
Characteristic merits.
But" we answered." '''our machine
suits us well and we do not care for another -
The agent, however, begged the privi-
lege of leaving one of his machines with US -
for the ladies to try"
The request was not unreasonable, so we
granted it-but more to oblige the agent
than anything else; for we really did not
want the machine, and has not the remo-
test idea Of buying it.
The machine once in tie house, it was
natural that the ladies should look it over:
they did SO, and as consequence fell in
lo"e with it, They say that without the
slightest wish to decry or disparage any
aother machine, this, all things considered,
is in their opinion, the mcst disirable one
to be had.
This unrivaled machine is manufactured

Selling Titles in France.

A curious fact is that in France a
man can will away his title TO any
one whom he may care to adopt just
as he can ring or sum of money.
Thus, some years ago, one OF the
proudest titles in France went a-beg-
ging. The old Due de Miromesnil
was so poor that he offered to adopt
and leave his ducal title to any man
who would insure him for the rest of
his days (and he was old) the modest
income of $4,000 - 10000 francs.
Oddly enough, the poor old Duke,
whom ill luck would thus seem to
have followed up to the last, found no
one to bid for the proffered honor,
and SO he died in the most abject
penury. We're similar transmission
of nobility legal in England there are
twenty members of the House of
Lords who would gladly, for hand
some G aasiderahol I'm ca sh. adopt the
most l-savory CONNER cial gentle
man." @ leave him p u their honors.

A Would-Be Duellist Indicted for
Sending a Challenge.
LITTLE Rock, Ark, Oct. 1O.-The
grand jury of this county has been in
structed by the circuit judge to inquire
into the matter, and bring in an indict-
ment against Capt. Coffee, of Chicago,
for sending a challenge to Horace Aliis,
of this city. to fight duel. 81. G. AIlis
is president of the First National Bank,
and part owner of the Capital CITY
Street Railway of Little Rock, ana "a.
T. Coffee is a Chicago capitalist, who is
largely interested in the Little Rock
Electric Railway company. Shortly
after Allis purchased an interest in
the street railway he procured the
ting the substitution of electricity
for mules as motive power. Then the
epiStolary warfare between the two men
began, each accusing the other of bad
faith and broken promises. At last
Coffee felt called upon to demand a re-
traction, and he sent the following let
ter to his friend, A. W. Percy, at Little
Rock:
H. G. Allis. Little Rock, Ark: Touching
the matters of difference between US, 1 ask
that you fix time and place where we can
finally end them. This will be handed to
you by my friend. w. A. Percy. who will act
for me in arranging the details. Respect
fully, II. I. COFFEE.
Capt. Coffee has resided in Chicago
about five years. He formerly resided
at Little Rock. and was in the Confed-
crate army, serving some of the time
Under Gen. Robert E. Lee. He is about
fifty years old ana is about as mild
hammered a man as ever one could
imagine to be guilty of coupling the
words ''pistols and coffee" in one sug-
gestiYe sentence. When asked il be in
