Weekly Coal Report.

The anthracite coal trade is showing
unmistakable signs of improvement.
There is considerable quantity of coal
being moved at last months prices, and
during the past week many new orders
have been received by the shippers of
anthracite for coal at prices closely APP
proximating the new circular figures,
which went into effect on the lst instant.
This enables some of the individual ope-
rators, whose collieries have been idle
for month or two past, TO resume ope-
rations at a profit, even though it is
small. Our advices from hcago and
other Western ports also indicate a
much better tone to the anthracite trade
there, though there has not been much
activity developed as yet, but prices are
much firmer and there has been an i'm
provement in the inquiry for coal from
that quarter. The coal sales agents of
the Pennsylvania Railroad have marked
up their prices to the Washington and
Baltimore trade an average of ten cents
per ton. The figures of Mr.. John III.
Jones, the Chief of Bureau of Anthra-
cite Statistics, show that the total pro-
duction of anthracite in May was 3,047,-
767 tons, compared with 1854 ,003 tons in
the corresponding month of last year, a
decrease of 36, 236 tons, and an excess of
half million tons over the quantity
which it was agreed by the managers of
the several companies controlling the
output should be mined last month.
These figures are subject to some official
adjustment, but the changes are not
likely to materially affect them.
The total amount of anthracite coal
sent to market for the week ending
May 31st, as reported by the several
carrying companies, was 652,31l tons,
compared with 663, ,545 tons in the cores
ponding week last year, decrease of
II ,234 tons. The total amount of an
thracite mined thus far in the year 1890
was II 1888, ,42l tons compared with II, 240,.
6S2 tons for the same period last year, a
decrease of 352, ,2Gl tons.-Ledqer.

observed to fall from the sky near the
well of the Donop Homestead, corner of
Centre and Front Street, which explod-

THE HOME CLUB DEFEATED BY HAzLEToN.
Captain Johnny McGeehan and his az
gression of ball tossers from the would
be new county seat, accompanied by
about fifty of their supporters and ad-
mirers, came here on Sunday afternoon
and vanquished our local combination in
game replete with numerous errors of
every description by score of 10 to 5.
Zeirdt, the wild-eyed pitcher, was in the
box for the visitors, and although his
delivery was pounded hard and often
the home club was unfortunate in placing
their hits safe. Welch pitched good
game for the home club, but he could
not do himself justice as Johnny Carr
could not handle his speedy delivery.

THE TIGERS SCORE ANOTHER VICTORY.

The ball ground at Lattimer presented
anovel appearance when the Tigers made
their appearance there on Sunday after
noon. The whole population of men,
women, boys and girls, and in fact ali
the people that the Census Enumerator
could find when going his rounds last
week were centered there to cheer their
pet base ball club on to victory. Such
was not to be, as the Tigers went there
to win and win they did by but one
point. The score up to the eigth inning
was to in favor of the Tigers, but in
this inning all of the vast number of
Lattimer admirers arose to their feet and
by hooting and yelling managed to rattle
the Tigers, and as a result five runs
were scored before the side was retired.
Neither sides scored in the ninth and the
game was won by the Tigers, making
it their sixth victory Of the season.
The score by innings as follows:

A TRIBUTE
TIC THE MEMORY OF HARDEN PAINE.


From the morn Of glorious manhood,
From life's chalice all sparkling and bright,
From the warm, pulsing hearts Of his loved
ones,
From life's battles Of wrong with the right
He has passed ere the morning had faded,
Ere the heat Of the bright noon-day sun,
Ere the sweets Of life's goblet were FILTERED
With the wearying strifes, scarce begun.
Tho so fair seemed the path that life prom
ised,
Tho SO sweet all the love of those hearts,
Those dear hearts that would fain been the
sgis
That could turn all Deaths ptiless darts
On! not his is the loss; but the living
They will weep DER loss ever new.
In life's music some notes will be wanting,
In her flowers, some bright, cherished hue.
Can we say to their hearts-days will brighten,
Time will soften the griefs Of today,
That tomorrow the sunlight will gisten
And the shadows will fee far away?
OH what heart, that has lost some dear loved
one,
Can c'er find in such words, aught TO fill
The sad longing for hands we can clasp not,
"And the sound of voice that is still"?
Can we say, whom He loveth He chasfneth
His dear love the grieved heart will sustain!
All! It's well that Faith bids us look upward,
And the soul learns from Reason, rs gain.
But wheneer could cold Reason, enkindle
All her passionless fires, in that breast
That burns with the fires of passion
Which holds ever the heart in unrests
Then my poor lines are penned, as a tribute
TO the memory of one whose true worth
Drew around him the strong bonds Of friend
ship,
Mystic charm Of the converse OF earth.
To the memory Of him whom the glory
OF mother's-love sisters-love crowned.
In whose life, the fond pride Of a father
Hopes bright alter and sweet incense, found.
When Our Father, the idols have shattered
That we reared in our weak, erring hearts,
Oh! feel that His love will bear with us,
When we cling to the SCARED, broken parts.
And Ills greatness will cover our weakness,
He'll feel in His great plying breast
Sweet compassion for our incompleteness,
For our restessness struggling for rest
