COMPETITION IN COAL.

The purchase of large tract of gas coal
lands in this vicinity BY the Pittsburg, Fair
port and Northwestern Dock Company, of
which the particulars may be read else
where, has a significance perhaps that is
not upon the surface. 1t is upon coal gas
that Pittsburg manufacturers are likely to
fall back in the event of scarcity of the
natural fuel gas, and healthy competition
in the mining of gas coal, of which this
transaction is said to be indicative, will be
advantageous to consumers in this region.

OUR SHORT STORIES.
SEASONED.

WHEN the sharp wind was inslnuating sug-
gestions of winter yesterday. with hail
stones for punotuations a couple of young men
stopped before a tailor's window on Sixth
street to look at the display of overcoats
Handy thing to have on a day like this"
said the shorter man, pointing to silk-lned

May be-but don't feel the need of it all
the same," said the other.
Don't need it?
"No-and don't expect to this winter either"
'Has your constitution got so almighty
rugged?'
"No-but I've been playing base ball for a
living all summer, and little thing like cold
day don't affect me morsel."

SHOULD SIZE UP TO THE SITUATION.

SHOULD SIZE UP TO THE SITUATION,
To-day the officers and directors of the
Pennsylvania Railroad start upon their ad-
nual trip of inspection from Philadelphia.
They will pass couple weeks examining
the several thousand miles of road under
their jurisdiction in this and adjacent
States. Whatever may be said of its policy
in some particulars, the Pennsylvania road
is certainly one of the best and safest roads
in the world. The managers can look with
pride upon that fact. But, even with its
vast resources and undoubted energy, there
are evidences that the great Pennsylvania
corporation has been exceeded in the growth
of its facilities for business bv the growth
of country that 1t serves. The same is true
of pretty nearly all the railroads In those
States where industrial activity is greatest.
While shortage of freight cars and delays
of freight transportation become at seasons
chronic, in place of occasionally, this is
clearly proven.
At the rate of expansion in our own dis
trict, the relation of present railroad facili-
ties to the business to be done is like that of
an old suit Of clothes to boy who has far

The Bicycle and Better Roads,

From the Lancaster Examiner
The PITTsBURG DISPATCH did a good work
last year by sending correspondent on car
riage trip over our public roads and illustrating
their badness. Now the wheelmen are taking
the matter in hand and will further arouse pub
lie attention. All this is wholesome. Already
we have State Road Commission. The Legis-
lature is taking the highway question into con-
sideration. Discussion is going on in the pub
lie prints, papers, magazines, etc. Local boards
are agitating the question, and so, while reform
comes slowly, yet it will arrive at last and then
the next generation will be happier.

eral order in view of the death of ex-Secretary

termined upon until after the announcement Of
the time at which the funeral services will be
held over the body of the late Justice Miller.
The widow of General Belknap wishes TO avoid
selecting the same time as that upon which the
Miller obsequies are to take place. as there are
many persons who desire to attend both
funerals. She has determined, however, that
his remains shall be buried in the Arlington
National Cemetery.

The Industry Increasing With Enlarged De-
mand From Foreign Markets.
CHICAGO, October A-Battery D presented
the appearance of a church fair. with its gayly
colored booths and stands to-day. The occa-
sion was the opening of the eighteenth annual
convention of the Carriage Builders National
Association of the United States. Fully 200
carriage manufacturers displayed their wares.
The Executive Committee's report said that
during the past year over 400 factories, several
of mammoth proportions, have been erected.
Many favorable conditions have presented
themselves during the year just closed that
claimed the attention of the manufacturers.
Anincreased demand from foreign markets has
gwen to the trade desirable impetus. An
unusual dearth of skilled mechanics and small
margin of profit, owing to strong competition,
was one of the unfavorable conditions pre-
sented. The technical school recently opened
in New York was reported as being in -four
ishing condition.

Lovers Of music enjoyed the concert and
organ recital, given last evening in the Park
Avenue Presbyterian Church, the occasion
being the Inauguration of the new grand

singers. Mr.: Henry Eyre Brown, organist of
Talmages Brooklyn Tabernacle was the
organist of the occasion, assisted by local
organists, among them Miss Agnes Liddel, who
is young lady of marked ability and thorough
training and whose mission it will be IN the
future to evolve the sacred music from the big
organ which she so successfully handled last
evening, as she holds the position of organist
in the Park Avenue Church.

To see the flowers fade:
Their tears fell freely as they swept
Above the leafy glade.

And shook the red leaves down.
With tears at first, then windy wiles,
Doth Fall rob hill and dale;
Deaths sword shines through her sunny smiles
The keen october gale! H. j.

there is any such advance it will be due wholly
