By the death Of Secretary Win

blest fnanciers, and one who by his
foresight and careful management
Of the national finances had just
saved the country from the horrors
Of that most terrible thing, a fnan-

Of the grand principals which has
given that organization such glori-
Gus history never excelled by that

the greatest loss falls upon his fam
lily, to whom he was ever the ideal
husband and father.

At about nine o'clock Sunday morn

many years a foreman in the Lehigh
Valley shops, Packerton, died at his
home in that place, after an illness of
about three weeks, resultant from a
bullet wound in the left arm, near the
shoulder, received in the battle Of Fair
Oaks, Va.,'on June 1st, 1862. Mr.. L.
was a member of Company c., S1st

one-shattering the bone and causing
much trouble. The bone became dis

was followed by blood poisoning and
death.

Politics ARE CERTAINLY becoming a
very disgraoeful affair in this county
when q public officer can openly prosti-
tute his Office for the benefit of any
man or set Of men. The very latest,
that comes on good authority, is that
a director of the poor, is using the pri-
vileges Of his Office in behalf of the
combination against George Esser.
That is, he gives out orders for relief
to those who signify a willingness to
serve his purpose and those who have
the manliness to object, must suffer.
IP THIS IS TRUE, the director should
be impeaehed from office, for there was
certainly never a more contemplate
method Of electioneering pursued in
this county or elsewhere-a damable
course that should bring the direst
consequence on the heads of those who
are connected with it, It is this open
prostitution Of the will of the people
that is rapidly threatening the over
throw Of our free institutions. II
should be stopped; it MUST be stopped
and the men at the head Of the diaboli.

up to public contempt. Turn on the

tesy, but this is very different from stand

mounts TO the thirteenth floor. A hat

How 10 Tell whether IL Is Good or
Base Counterfeit.
The Treasury Department is worTiedby
more than one first class counterfeit, il
the statement of Department clerk who
is now visiting at his home in this city is
true. Said he last night: "The new 81
silver certificate counterfeit is so danger
ously like the original bill that the entire
issue may be called in as the best way out
of the difficulty. The counterfeits which
cause the Treasury officials the most UNI
easiness are bogus bills; counterfeitcoi
ordinarily do not cause much trouble be-
cause the work is rarely well done, and
the queer coin are quite easily detected
and suppressed. But there is one bogus
dollar in circulation that is SO nearly like
the genuine that it is causing consider
able alarm. Thomas Carvalho, the Treas
ury expert, who is said to be the best
judge of money in the world, recently
was sent to Birmingham, Ala, TO testify
as an expert in q counterfeiting case. In
explaining to the jury the secret marks
which the genuine silver dollar bears he
said The designer of the standard silver
dollar, Mr. Morgan, stamped the initial
of his name in two places on the coin.
All genuine standard silver dollars bear
one minute letter IN" stamped on the
neck of the Goddess of Liberty just at the
point where the longest lock of hair
crosses the neck line, and another on the
reverse side of the coin, on the left half
of the loop of ribbon tied about the
wreath.
Drawing from his pocket handful Of
coins he left the witness stand and walked
over to the jury box. IF you will look
at these dollars very carefully, said he,
you will observe the marks to which l
have alluded He then distributed the
dollars among the jurors and asked them
to examine the coins. After studying
awhile all but three of the jurors were
able to make out the minute MS Then
expert Corvalho smilingly volunteered to
point out the secret initials to the three
gentlemen whose eyes were not acute
enough to detect them. Taking the three
coins in his hand he glanced at them
casually. A puzzled look overspread his
features; he closely scrutinized the dol
lars, walking over to the window to get
the benefit of clearer light. Then he
turned to the jury, and said Gentlemen,
these coins well illustrate the point was
attempting to impress upon you. They
are counterfeits.' Just before entering
the courtroom Mr.. Carvalho stepped into
a grocery and had $50 bill changed in
order to get enough dollars to pass among
the jurors. Three of those coins were
bogus. "--GChicago Mail.

Frequcnters of the popular afternoon

pains pretty girls who pour the ambe,
beverage are mt TO direct the tapern
spout Of the kettle in the direction OF
their rosy cheeks or white brow and chin.
IL appears that some one has assured
them that the warm, fragrant steam
arising from the sleeping leaves is most
beneficial for softcning and purifying the
complexion. True, the heated vapor
does bring a deep pink flush and caus
dampened locks TO curl tendril like abou
fair foreheads, but these amateur wait
resses are laboring under a greyious error
when they imagine that this treatment
beautfies the skin. It is harmful in the
extreme, and unless the su0usion is i'm.
mcdately followed by a brisk towelling
a chapped and roughened complexion
will be the result. All through the
orange growing country, where that ex-
uuisite fruit is eaten from the time its
rind shows the faintest gliding, girls
always peel the oranges at arms length
being fully convinced, because some
negro nanny has told them 50, that the
pungent oil springiug from the skin will
leave frecsle wherever it touches.

Democrat.
The above item we copy in full from
the Mauoh Chunk Democrat, and it
goes to prove most conclusively what
we have all along maintained, viz: that
on account of George w. Esser refus-
ing to have anything to do with the
Rauch's in the way of giving patronage
they are opposed to him body, soul and
breeches. The animus of the item is
plain-the Democrat wants pap and
for lack of it is suffering itself to de-
generate into one of the most disgrace
full and contemplate organs of the
bosses that the Lehigh Valley has ever
known. Disappointed in his political
aspirations the editor has become a
chronic growler of the worst sort,
and has taken to abusing men who
have the courage of their convictions.
Our books are open to show that the
prices we charge the county for print
ing are the same as we charge indivi-
duals, corporations or business firms
and we emphatically pronounce the
accusation in the above item as malici-
ously false and the writer a contempt
able liar and blackguard of the worst
sort. His political history is as spotted
as leopard and as deadly as the poison
of q cobra, and we challenge refuta-
ton. During his residence here he has
in one way or another been connected
with all the low, mean and dirty tricks
encompassed in the party. Without
moral stamina, and lacking the first
elements Of decency no one wonders
at his present position as the puppet
of one Of the dirtiest political rings OF
combinations ever formed in Carbon
county. It is because the editors Of
the CARBON ADVOCATE have the courage
to kick against such ring and expose
some of their plans that the foul ele
ments open their mouths and breath
lies as black as their own political jug
glery. THIS PAPER OWNS ITSELF and is

The Taos Indians Preparing for Their
Great Annual Festival ON
September 80.
Correspondence New Mexican.

Correspondence New Mexican.
TAOS, N. NJ, Sept. 20.-The annual
festival of the Indians of the Taos pueblo,
in honor of their patron saint, San Gero-
nimo, (St. Jerome) occurs on September
30. The program of the day consists OF
foot races and dances by the Indians
in their primitive costumes, religious
ceremonies and various interesting per-
formances. The pueblo, or communal
(fve-story) house of the tribe is about two
miles from the old plaza Of Fernandez
de Taos, and to see it alone ID worth q
journey of hundreds of miles. The trip
by team from Tres Piedras, on the D. &
h. G., the nearest station, is one that is
full of enjoyment and interest. The
new road, which is good one, crosses
the great gorge of the Rio Grande at one
of its most wonderful and picturesque
points, passing through the fertile fields
of the magnificent Taos valley. Tourists
and all others wishing to visit one of thu
most attractive regions of the west and wit
ness some very curious and impressive
scenes should not fail to be present a
this famous festival. Historic points o
interest in Taos and vicinity are tn
house and grave of Kit Carson, the ruin
of the old parish church, erected NOR
than 100 years ago, and destroyed in bat
tie by the U. S. troops in the Taos revolt
ton of 1S47; also the ruins OF Turley'
distillery, the scene OF the Turley mas
sacre and other places OF less note.

this month he says:
"The remainder of the month will con-
tain much irregular weather, running to
extremes. Two storm waves will cross
the continent, the first leaving the Pacific
coast about September 10, crossing the
Rocky-Allegheny valley from 20 to 22nd,
and reaching the Atlantic coast about the
23d. The second of these storm waves
will be due to leave the Pacific coast about
the oath, cross the Rocky-Allegheny valley
from rs to 9th and reach the Atlantic
coast about the 2Sth. Tropical hurricanes
may be expected on the Gulf of Mexico
and the Atlantic at any time accompanied
by killing frosts on the continent. Lex
pect very destructive frosts not far from
October 3, which will about put an end
to the growth of the cotton and other ten
der plants north of latitude 80. y
In Colorado and New Mexico the storm
waves mentioned above will have full
force, and, although not much rain or
other precipitation is expected, the
F.! weather will be very uneaven and blus.
