over the old law.
We believe the system will be more
favorsbly received when the voters become
better acquainted with its provisions. This
fact undoubtedly had considerable to 90
with the result of the votes yesterday, as
many electors deposited their ballots
through an ignorance of the requirements
of the law.

For increase of debt" indicates vote
for the increase, To those acquainted with
the features of the law, this requirement
was we'll understood, but the average voter
would naturally place the cross-msrk
opposite that which he wishes to discard,
and for this very reason many votes were
counted different from the intent of the
voter.
The friends of the new water works had
majority in every ward in the borough,
with the single exception of the Second.
The result shows that the voters of the lat
ter ward are not in favor of the new water
works, and it also proves that they have
been misrepresented by their representa-
tive in Council in casting his vote in that
body in favor of the establishment of the
| works.
The greatest surprise was felt when the
vote Of the Third ward was announced,
The sdherents of the old company con-
fideDtly expected q majority against the
increase of debt.
The result of the election was enthusiastic
cslly received by the joint committee and
their friends, but, on the other hand the
opposition seem to have lost no sleep over
the matter, and assert that if the joint
committee had issued their "stump-speech''
two weeks previous the result would have
been entirely different.

Unfortunate Family.

The family of Rees Reese, living on
South West street, have certainly met with
their share of misfortune during the past
year or two. About a year ago their
youngest son, David, was drowned in q
mine breach, and last fall their oldest son,
Daniel, met his death in the mines by
being squeezed between two mine cars.
The death of their two sons, coming SO
close together and the manner in which
they were killed, was great loss to the
bereaved parents, but Yesterday the family
was again called upon to mourn the loss OF
one of their numbar. Mr., Reese last week
received psrslytic stroke, rendering him
speechless, and yesterday afternoon, be-.
tween five and six o clock, he died from the
effects. The deceased was 80 years of age,
and leaves wife and two children to
mourn his sudden demise. The sorrow
stricken family have the sympathy of a
large number of friends in this their ssddest
bereavement,

Thorn Stout son of Councilman Stout,

Warm words followed, but they were

Jones a severe blow. Both men we're then

RECORDED.
VIM. PENN COLLIERY SOLD.
The Local Field Covered by Our
Corps of Reporters - News
From Near by Towus-Other
Local Happenings.

About two months ago the city papers
contained a dispatch stating that the
Pennsy ylvania Coal Company had opened
negotiations with the officials of the VIM.
Penn Coal Company, whereby the coliery
of the latter company would pass into the
hands of the former. Investigation made
by the HERALD at that time failed to
substantists the truth of the rumor, and
the Off ,ials of the coliery denied that any
such negotiations were pending.
1t is now stated, on very good authority
that the Pennsy has secured control of the
colliery through their agents, Stockney &
Cunningham, Of New York, who are the
lessees.
The colliery is situated on lands of the
Girard estate, near this town, and is one OF
the largest in this district, 1t employs
about seven hundred men and boys, and is
owned by Brooks s. Co., of Birdsboro.
The Pennsylvania railroad can easily
extend a track from the collery to theil
Shenandoah branch, and will thus bt
enabled to ship the entire output of the col.
liery, which annually amounts to 300,00(
tons, over their own road.
Since the announcement of the trsnsfe
much speculation has been INDUCED in as t.
| whether the new lessees would make any
changes in the management The official
of the company, however, state that n
changes will be made. Superintendent
William II. Lewis being retained in hi
present position, and E. r. Beddall vii
remain as outside foreman.

DID you EVER! i!

Think what it cost to manufacture Baking
Powder Did you ever think how baking pow
der is soldY Did you ever think there must be
large profit in 1t somewhereY The manufac-
turer of a certain baking powder pay out nearly
a million dollars or more year advertising
their powder, trying to make people believe II
is the best made. Their baking powder is sold
at 5Oc per pound The retailer makes his profit,
the jobber makes his profit, the manufacturer
makes his profit, and the consumer pays for all
these and the newspaper advertising also
What does il cost to manufacture the powder?
Other manufacturers give away 25 or 80 cents
worth of china, glassware, toys, hardware
books, etc, with every pound Of baking pow
der. Again the query, what does it cost to
manufacture the powder-can you think it out?
You don't need to. Girvin, Duncan & Waid
ley have few words on the baking powder
question. Until September we will sell Penn
sylVania Baking Powder at TEN CENTS per
pound. 1t doesn't concern you whether we
make or lose on tive want to get it intro
duced. On and after September lst our price
will not exceed l5c per pound.
We are not going 10 pay million dollars to
advertise it; we are not going to give away any
premiums with tive are going to sell it, every
pound guaranteed, to our customers. If it does
not give satisfaction, bring it back and receive
your money.
Why do we say thisY We expect it will please
you. Why should you pay 80 or 40c profit on
every pound of powder you buy;
Don't forget we strive to give our customers
the advantage of inside prices at which we buy
all sorts Of goods.
