Coal Without Price.

From the Northumberland Press"
Coal for the taking is the go now
among many people living along the
banks of the North Branch of the
Sus,uehanna and even along the
banks of the Big river for good
distance. The fact is, for many
years coal has been accumulating in
the bottom of the river, having
found its way thither from the coal
breakers up the river at Plymouth,
Nanticoke and Shickshinny. 1t has
been washed down stream by cur-
rents and floods for distance of II
hundred miles, and now many per-
sons are enjoying the luxury of burn
ing coal free. The getting is all that
is required. The coal taken from
the river is washed smooth and
round by the action of the water.
1t is said very little slate is found
among it, and that when used in
the stove it makes an excellent fire.
Some of the gatherers of this coal
get it for their individual use and
some get it to sell. The proprietors
of Savidge's sand digger have been
taking twenty tons II day from the
river at Johnson's Run, above town
by using the digger. 1t is said
Savidge disposes of his black dia-
monds Mt the rate of two tons for
five dollars, while Shamokin Dam
party is said to sell it for Sl.iO per
ton.
More than year ago this boom
was innuguratcd. Since then the
diamonds have been taken from the
river ut different points along the
river from Danville, and other North
Branch towns, down to Liverpool,
thirty miles below Northumberland
along the Big river.

A Bear Attacks a Man.

Daniel Weaver, who lives at the
foot of the mountain in Lancaster
valley, Armagh township, came near
being killed by an infuriated she
bear last Saturday evening Mr..
Viewers dogs were making quite II
noise in the brush Just back of his
stable and supposing they were
worrying some cattle running at
large he went out to see about the
matter not thinking to take any fire
arms along he pushed through the
brush right into the embrace of the
ferocious animal The bear mt once
commenced clawing him, having the
man almost ut her mercy, but fortu-
nately the dogs kept up their at
tack and after severe tussel he
succeeded in freeing himself. He
was fearfully torn, his entrails be.
ing exposed from the wound, and
his arms dreadfully mangled. 1t is
hoped he may recover. The bear
escaped. Press.

Wild Turkeys.

Saturday.last, October 15, was the
first day that wild turkeys could be
shot legally and a general descent
was made upon the birds. In the
woods north of town there was n
continuous cracking of shotguns and
rifles all day long and the birds flew
in every direction to escape their
would be destroyers. Two flocks,
one of fifteen and another of thirty,
of the birds were found early in the
morning by the Booney's of the
"west end and they started the
ball a-rolling. Their dogs scattered
the birds and then they began to
call them to within gun-shot. They
had eight in their string ut night
aud how many they killed and didn't
get is hard to tell. The birds are
not much more than half grown and
very lean, but the law allows them to
be killed, and, although the game
may not be worth the powder, there
is lots of glory in it.

THE WORLD,S FAIR.

Whatever may be necessary for
North Carolina to make a successful
exhibition at the Worlds Fair should
be done. We believe that North Caro-
linians want their State properly rep
resented and that they will heartily ap
prove of the spending of the needed
sum of money for such purpose. The
appropriation of $4,000 by the last
General Assembly will be available,
but the noble women who undertook
the patriotic Office of raising money to
erect a State building at the Fair
have not succeeded in raising the re-
ouired amount. We understand that
the balance necessary to success is
$4,000. Such laudable object should
not fail for want of such a small sum.
We still hope for the success of the
cause, and appeal TO North Carolinians
everywhere to make good the efforts OF
| the ladies who have labored with SO
much zeal and fidelity. The world
will be represented at Chicago. Shall
North Carolina be there without the
ability to offer he: guests shelter?
