ROBERT WArcHoRN, State Factory
Inspector, has returned from his trip
to Europe. Mr. Watchorn says the
condition of the American miners is
not to be compared with the collieries
Of Europe. Over there they are
better paid and the employment is
more regular. He says the lowest
rate Of wages paid the European
miner is $40 per week, to which is
added a dividend of 40 per cent Of
The sales. After investigating the
facts Mr. Watchorn thinks the dig
gers of Pennsylvania have nothing to
congratulate themselves upon when
the respective conditions of home and
foreign labor is put side by side.
The labor unions of England have
ameliorated the workingman's condi-
ton. The organizations are very
compact, and see to the welfare of
every toiler

The reasons given in Senator
Gobin's resolution declaring that the
Senate has no jurisdiction in the
Boyer case may prove awkward here
after The Senate is made to declare
that the charges preferred by the
Governor againet the State Treasurer
are charges of misdemeanor in Office,
''for which said officers could be pro
ceeded against both by Impeachment
and by Indictment" etc. Suppose
the Governor should take the Repub-
hcan Senators view of it and call the
House in extra session to prepare
articles of impeachment. Without
considerable Juggling the Republicans
of the House will find themselves in a
predicament, being obliged either to
disagree with their brethren of the
Senate as to the character of the
charges, or else to bodily refuse ia
indict on charges based on admitted
facts-or else to indict. 1t was 6
wise rule of an old French king never
to give any reasons for his acts. He
knew, what the Senate may learn
how awkwardly they turn up to con

1t seems to be admitted that the one
man who looms up conspicuously for the
Democratic nomination is Grover Cleve-
land. The platform on which Flower
won in New York represented quite
accurately Mr.. Cleveland views. Rev
enue reform and sound coinage were the
shibbOleths. Mr. Cleveland's activity in
the campaign is believed to have
materially contributed to Flowers sue
cess, and it would seem as though Tam
many Hall would have reason to give
the eX-President as emphatic support
next year as it gave him half-hearted aid
or open opposition in previous cam
paigns. Governor Hills chances were
largely based on the assumption that he
was The only Democrat who could be
confidently relied upon to carry New
York. The great majority for Flower
| upsets that calculation. Then again
Hill is suspected of leaning to cheaI
silver notions, and the Ohio election has
settled all question of the Democratic
platforms position with regard to the
currency.
Governor Campbells principal stumb
! ling block in his campaign was the silve
| plank in his State. Therefore, as tn,
! Democratic party triumphed upon tn,
principles held by Cleveland, and as tn,
current of events has brought him close
| into line with the organization in his owl
| State, his friends have much reason t.
claim that the logic of the situation
points clearly to his nomination, an,
that his chancessof occupying the Whit
House, also, have been strengthened b.
the late elections. 1t is certain tina

One Of the greatest successes on the
road will play an engagement here short
ly. 1t is one of the most colossal the
atrical enterprises ever sent from New
York. During the past summer over
twenty men, scene painters, machinsts,
upholsterers, carpenters, etc, have been
constantly at work building the most stu
pendons scenery and effects. 1t can be
best appreciated from the fact that not
one piece of the local scenery is used in
the production. The stage is stripped
bare on the company's arrival in town,
as every piece of scenery for the entire
play is special, and from the accounts
which precede the company, some of
the scenic effects are simply wonderful.

The editor of the Williamsport Re

day night by a number of citizens.
The figure was run up on the middle
span of the river bridge, and late
passers suppo9ed it to be the body OF
a man who had committed suicide
Mr.. Dwyer, the editor, when informed
of the occurance was greatly amused
The publication which led to the deeC
was to the effect that the County
Commissioners could have saved $50,

the citizens do not try to hang them

ACCORDING to Charles A. Dana, the
following was Horace Greeley's code
in journalism: always give a hear
ing to your opponent. Never attack
a man and refuse him an opportunity
to defend himself in the same column.
Be always as considerate of the weak
and oppressed as of the powerful
Waste no strength in advocating
things impossible of accomplishment
Never compromise your opinion OF

These reduce the available strength of
the States that went Republican in 1885
to 1856 votes. Add to these the II votes
Of the new States of Idaho, North and
South Dakota, Washington and Wyom-
ing, and the total is still 80 votes short of
a majority. Under the newly establish
ed district system in Michigan its
electoral vote will be divided, but only
six votes are claimed by the Republicans.
Add to these the votes of Indiana, Iowa
and Massachusetts and the election
would be tie. Let the Democrats
carry New York, Indiana and eight
districts in Michigan and their victory
would be complete. Let the fact be
admitted that Illinois, New Hampshire,
Rhode Island and Wisconsin are no
longer securely Republican States and
the problem becomes still more compli-
Gated for the party that won in 1888.

what the Elections show.

The elections of last week leave very
large margin for conjecture about the
distribution of the electoral vote of 1892.
Neither party can confidently claim the
possession of anything near the 223 votes
necessary to elect a President. Under
the newap apportionment the twenty States
that cast their electoral votes for Har-
rison have 249 votes. But this easy
majority in the Electoral College is wiped
out when the following States are ran ked

The Long Gown.

IL was at flower stall near one of the
large establishments on Broadway. says
the Brooklyn Eagle. The girl was select
ing great yellow chrysanthemums to wear
to the Saturday matinee. Her companion
already had hers pinned TO her bodice, her
cape being left open in order not to crush
the long, slender yellow petals. The one
bent on finding the largest and prettiest
had stepped to the front of the stall, thus
sweeping her long dress skirt far out on to
the sidewalk. There it lay in the sidewalk
dirt when man hurrying along, smok-
ing, quite unntentionally spit straight
down on it's plated folds. He besitated
as if to apologize and then, finding that
she had not observed and that the dress
reached so far out that he was hardly to
blame, he passed on. The girl, with her
friends help, fastened the golden bunch
in her bosom, and she. too, passed on with
filth and dirt clinging TO her dress skirts
How powerful are fashions dictates.
When the other day certain housewife
undertook TO reason with Mary Jane on
the extravaganza of trailing dress skirts,
finding that from an economical stand
point her words had no weight, she said,
But, Mary, think of the dirtv "Oh,
don't mind the dirt we girls can stand
that if you ladies can" To all appear
ances, the 'ladies" find it easy enough.
In spite of jeweled necks, perfumed
breaths and beautiful flowers, they drag
behind them costly gowns covered with
dirt and often wet with tobacco spit. Con-
sistency is a virtue which unfortunately
women have never been reputed TO possess
to any great extent.

black. The main point TO remember Is
that the hose must match the boot tops,
the gown must match the hose In every
color except black and, prettiest conceit
OF all. about the top OF the boot must be
bound a roll or band OF fur similar TO that
with which the gown Is trimmed.
Seal or otter fur are said to be most be-
coming as n shoe fur, owing to their soft
ness and richness, consequently there
will doubtless be many seal and otter
trimmed gowns.
Another boot promising TO be we'll worn
is laced boot with patent leather toe and
brown cloth or suede top. There Is some-
thing very satisfactory about the laced
boot to punctilious woman because 1t
can be drawn In moro closely aud per-
fectly to the slope OF the ankle than is
possible with buttons as n medium OF
fastening. The laced boot has a binding
OF the patent leather up either side OF the
eyelets and across the top-N. Y. Sun.

A Woman who is a Hustlcr.

One would hardly think TO look at Mrs
Emily knight OF Tacoma that sle Was a
woman who would face and had expert
snesd all the hsrdshies Sf a pinsgs iifs,
born In Lancaster, Eng, but has lived in
this country some years. She has travel
ed all over the United States Her APP
pearance il refined and well preserved, not
having passed ths zenith OF lie. For
over year Mrs - jht has been av are OF
the existence of extensive mineral de posit
in the Gold Hill district, which is about
ten miles east OF Nt. Tacoma, and sixty
two miles from North Yakima 1t was
not until recently, however, that she con-
cluded to bond the seventeen claims in
the district, comparatively close TO each
other, for $4,000. She has now returned
from her properties and decided to take
up the bond and make the necessary inn
provements for taking out ore. Even
during her absence Mrs. Knight declares
she cannot afford TO lose any time in the
work of development, and has three
shifts of men engaged steadily in inn
proving the Blue Bells, her most promis-
ing prospect. She has appealed to the
country commissioners who have decided
TO build road to the district. A tele-
phone line is also TO be built to the mines
mentioned, Mrs. Knight furnishing the
poles. The ore of this district carries
both gold and silver and is said to run
from sl70 TO s2S1 TO the ton.
In answer TO questions put to her the
other day Mrs. Knight said:
"Why do L follow this kind of life
Because i like it. There is a certain
amount of fascination in mining and deal
ing in mines that particularly appeals to
me. Think, one engaged in such pursuit
may be rich tomorrow although COM
paratively poor to-day But due expert

cases to make such vocation success.

the question Of an educated clergy was
under disoussion---that battle has been
fought and gained. Now we have passed
on to the question Of IN sducatsd woman
hood.
Already the experiment Of woman's
education has been able to prove that
women are not religious because they de-
spair OF anything else, but by reason OF
that depth OF nature which Is able to
show itself In appreciation of learning as
well Of devotion. The religious nature Is
not going 10 be killed by education.
There will be the same flame of charity,
but it will know how TO deal with the
facts Of life; there will be the sans desire
TO do good to others, but il will know how
10 regulate all its active energies"
Ia conclusion he says, mo education
can be too high or too deep, no university
too large or too thorough, for thosS who
have the loftiest responsibilities OF Chris
tian life resting upon them.
The increasing demand Ter the hAgher
education Of women has forced their aa-
mission to college studies. Ce-sducation
has advanced faster than any ether feature
Of education in this country In the last
decade, and On the whole In found 10 work
we'll. Nearly every prominent college In
the land Is now admitting young women
to Its privileges, and the more the expert
ment is tried the more successfully it
seems to work. 1t Is believed that the
time has come for more open recognition
Of the place of women in our preparatory
schools and colleges, and that II IL mis-

tations exclusively for the sex.

Tie Higher Education-She Mines Tor

Speaking in the EUeninq Post of the in
luence of higher education upon religious
thought Arthur Brooks says:
"It is not difficult to understand the
fear that is often expressed lest the higher
education of women may have an in1uri-
Gus effect upon the religious interests of
the community. The mode of woman's
thought the nature of her duties, and the
larger command of her own time combine
TO make her the preponderating feature in
religious work Will all this be changed
rs women are more largely educated
The prospect of such a change may well
excite apprehension.
"The effect of increased knowledge upon
faith has been tried upon n large scale
which is more instructive than individual
cases can ever be We live i'm a time when
the results can be seen. The most intelli-
gent nations are the most religious relig-
ion has grasped and used the weapons
furnished by increased knowledge; religi-
Gus activity is greater than IL ever was
before; new colleges are constantly found
ed and none of them are on the basis OF
disbelief; the religious community furnish
the means, direct the management and
supply the students for colleges all the
world over. AS result the oneness of
knowledge OF the seen, and of faith ia the
unseen, is believed in and defended to-day
so that there is no reason TO dread the new
steps.
"And the new step is needed. For i'm
these same centuries 20 women has been
