One of Solomon's wise sayings is
that "a good man shall be satisfied
from himself" prov. XiY : 14.) Such
a man has the sources of happiness in
his own spiritual condition and these
he carries with him wherever he goes.
He is anchored in God, and on good
terms with him ; and this one fact is
to him perpetual fountain of joy.
How easy it is for the Lord to abase
our pride, to humble our self-conti-
dence, to bring to naught our fondest
plans and most cherished purposes and
then upon the wreck and ruin of all
our hopes. He can lay broader foun-
dations, and build for us better than
all our plans, and show us that He is a
tender Father, and q gracious God, su-
preme in power, boundless in wisdom
and love.

On Monday last Calvin Rohrbach. of
Front street, took a day off and went
fishing to the Nescopec, and while on
MS way home he came across what he
thought to be the bones of human
being. Upon closer examination he
found it to be those of small child.
There was nothing left to indicate what
sex it belonged, but noticing few shreds
OF clothing he examined them, and
from that cleaned the information that
it must have been the body of little
girl. Coupling the loss of child from
freeland near three years ago, he came to
the conclusion that it was the child of
Morris Ulrich, of South Heberton. Mr..
Rohrbach took the skull and hung it on
bush so that he could find the place
again.
Early yesterday morning Mr. Ulrich,
his son William, Calvin Rohrbach and
L. A Buckley went to the place where
the bones were seen, and made search
for the same. Their labor was re ewarded
at about half-past ten, the skull being
seen on the tree where it was placed by
Mr.. Rohrbach on Monday, and living
underneath, on the ground, was heap
OF bones and clothing. A short distance
away other bones were seen, as also the
pair of button shoes. Upon examining
the shoes Mr.. Ulrich became convinced
that the remains were those of his child.
The bones and what shreds of clothing
was to be found were placed in box
carried there for that purpose and taken
to the home of Mr. Ulrich, where they
were shown to Mrs. Ulrich, who posi-
lively identified the shoes and portions
OF clothing, and said that the stockings
worn by her little girl were red. Upor
taking the stockings out of the shoes
they were found to be red wooden stock
ings.
The place where the skeleton was
found is about mile northeast from No
D slople of the Upper Lehigh Coal Com
pany, and is fully miles from the place
where the child strayed from three
years ago. The road from Upper Lehigf
to No. 8 slope is fairly passable, but
from there to where the bones were
found is rough and full of brush. The
fact that the child was seen at the
butcher shop, leading TO No. 5, on the
afternoon on which She was lost, gives
rise to the supposition that she must have
strayed away up the mountain in her
effort to regain her home. Mr.. Buch-
man, who lives at No. 5, stated to the
writer that he, in company with others,
had searched all around No. 5 north
and west, but did not look for her to the
east, as it was very little frequented.
Mr.. Ulrich is now satisfied that no
foul play had been committed, and that
the child was not, as was partly sup
posed, kidnapped He will place the
remains in a suitable casket and have
them buried in proper burying plot.
Mr.. and Mrs Ulrich have the SYM
pathy of the whole neighborhood in
their bereavement Owing to the length
of time since the child was lost the peo-
pie have almost forgotten the incident.

Weekly Coal Report.

The anthracite coal trade is reported
to be now in a much healthier condition
than it has been at any previous time
this year, and the outlook for the future
is said to be quite promising. There is a
much better inquiry for coal than has
been noted for months past, and the de-
mand is daily improving, though there is
not expected any great activity in the
movement of coal until after July lst
The prices for anthracite are reported
firmer, and all of the large producing
companies and some few of the indi-
vidual operators are stlffening the quota
tions for nearly all the prepared Sizes
There will be meeting of the general
coal sales agents of all the large produc-
ing interests held in New York on the
18th instant, when the question of ad-
vancing prices will again receive atten-
ton, and number of well informed ope-
rators say they will not be surprised if an
increase in the actual selling prices
should then be agreed upon. We are in
formed that some shrewd dealers are at
present engaged in stocking their yards
in anticipation of an advance, realizing
that the ruling prices are perhaps the
lowest at which coal can be bought this
season, and the tolls on anthracite will
not be reduced. The larger companies
are not taking orders on contracts for fu-
ture delivery, excepting subject to any
increase IN price that may be made.

which 5000 men took part. There was a

A fire was discovered in No. IA col
liery of the Pennsylvania Coal Company

that portion of the workings, and it i,
supposed that through them the gas wa.
fired. The gas bosses are endeavoring tt
reach the burning spot from several di
rections.
