examination the court room was crowded
and the audience was so demonstrative at
times that Judge Grub had to threaten
to have the court room cleared by the

Those who saw THE Midnight Alarm"
last season would scarcely recognize it as it
was produced last night at the National
Theatre. 1t has been reconstruct and
the new life given it is all in the line OF
improvement. So we'll has the work been
done that the drama will now rank as one
of the bet on the stage, and with the
capable company which presented it last,
there is every assurance that it will be a
creditable gold mine for its managers. The
scene in which, with mechanical marvel
of stage carpentry, the front of a fire
engine house is shown, with Darlington
and Westmore fighting on the sidewalk, the
clang of the fire gong, the horses and
engine at their post, and the whirling OF
the apparatus to toe foreground is the most
realistic thing ever attempted on the stage,
and that it was thoroughly appreciated by
the gallery was evidenced in the strenuous
manner in which the occupants tried to
outdo the applause of those who were
seated below them. PHILADELPHIA En-.
guirer "The Midni0ht Alarm" will be
produced at Ferg sons theatre tomorrow
evening for the benefit of the Colum bia
Hose Company. Music will be furnished
during the evening by the Schoppe or
chestra of ten pieces. Reserved seat chart
now open at Kirln's drug store.

FIGHTING FROST
ELECTRIC RAILWAY GANGS
PUSHING THEIR WORK.
A LARGE GANG ON COAL STREET
The Old Fashioned Winter Has
No Terrors for Most of the
Men-Some Had Digging.
Other Points.

In the face of binding snow storm and
sharp, biting blasts or y-6ve Italians
worked all day yesterday unoer Foremen
Amour and Conry on the Goal street
branch of the electric railway. The force
the day before was ninety, but the reduced
number was sufficient to make satisfactory
progress. The men who laid off resumed
work this morning.
The digging to make room for sills and
rails on Coal street is one of the hardest
pieces of work on the line. The filling in
of rock and dirt of the street is frozen so
hard that it is like conglomerate and
plugging is frequent y resorted to.
The street is now excavated from Toole' :
row to point near Gilbert street. When
the gangs will reach Main street is hard to
say. 1t is said that some parts of the street
Is filed in with large rocks, the removal OF
which, with the ground frozen as it is, will
require considerable tedious and hard
work. The striking of the pick on me
parts of the street is like striking it on
some immense boulder. Still the men are
making progress and they will have the
street ready for track La ing in good time.
The south side of the street is left open for
vehicles. There is bsrricsde at each end
of the excavation and two wstchmen,
David Evans and John pnry, are on duty
every night to guard against accidents.
Work on the dirt banks at the western
outskirts of the town has progressed finely
| and the work of cribhing for the ends Of
the trestles has begun. But two more car
loads of timber is required and then all the
material for the trestles will be at hand.
Tamping and putting finishing touches
on the road from Lost Creek to the bal
grounds near the power house is going on
The foundations for the engines AND
electrical works in the power house are
nearing completion.

FOR THE FLAG.
ALL THE NEWS FOR ONE CENT.

The Committee on Military Affairs
of the Senate has now before 1T bill
introduced by Senator Sherman, De-
cember 18th, last, "to promote and en-
coursge the display of the flag of the
United States" By its provisions the
Quartermaster- General of the army Is
authorized to sell for cash, to the
citizens of the United States and posts
of the Grand Army of the Republic,
who apply therefore, flags of the
several patterns prescribed by the
regulations for the army of the United
States, and the rate at which flags of
the respective patterns shall be sold
shall be the contract price at which
they were purchased by the United
States and the proceeds of such sales
shall revert to the appropriation from
which flags for the army are pur'
chased, and be Immediately available.
A second section of the bill prohibits
the printing or painting or attaching
on any flag so obtained of any adver'
tisement, political motto or candidates
name, or of anything tending to bring
the government of the United States
or its flag into contempt, and also pro
hibits the display of any such flag sc
marked. 1t further provides penalties
for selling at profit any flag &c
obtained. The purpose of this bill il
fully expressed in its title. 1t is MOI
meant to take the sale of flags out O.
ths hands of private dealers, or Il
interfere with private affairs. i
simply provides a new method by
which people may obtain proper flags
if they SO choose, from the Quarter
master General. It's effect woulC
doubtless be what 10 intended, tC
encourage the display of the flag
That this is a very proper object will
hardly be denied. We hope that the
flag bill will receive an early and
favorable report, and thereupon bt
promptly passed.

SOME of the points made by "Pick
and Drill" in the communication pub
lished in yesterdays HERALD are of
such "a character that they should not
escape attention. If all the statements
he makes are true it is certainly time
that a halt should be called. The
point he makes that colliery is not
the place to call for an expression OF
opinion by the miner citizens is good
one. 1t is quite true that it is impossible
to get an honest, frank expression of
opinion at such places, especially when
the expression IS called for by the boss
of the colliery, or when the boss has
an interest in the matter under con-
slderation. The HERALD has no
proof of the truth of what "Pick and
Drill" says, but should any fall into
its hands it will promptly give the
people the benefit of 1t. Vhe free
communication of thoughts and
opinions is one of the invaluable
rights of man and it is safe to say that
the officisls of the P. & r. G. e. Co.
will not tolerate attemptf by any OF
their employees to abridge those lights,
and that they will promptly squelch
any such business If their attention is
properly called to the matter. "Pick
and Drills" communication serves at
least one purpose. 1t puts the mine
bosses on their guard and points out
what is by no means an unimportant
fact, that the circulation of petition
by mine boss among his employees ia
rarely, if ever, within the bounds OF
propriety.

their destination all were in most happy
mood. An excellent turkey supper was
served at the Mansion House, after which
there was dancing. Tnis part of the pro-
gramme was disappointing. Had the

Johnny"
With the completion of the electric rail-
road through the Shenandoah valley our
people will be- as good as other folks. Much
is expected from the opening of this great
and useful enterprise and Improvements in
property, etc., will be in order as soon as
spring opens.
The rush for licenses to open spublic
houses is greater than ever, and the con-
stables will have plenty to do to spot" and
r'port to court nu perous "speak-easies" in
the absence of licensed places.
The base ball ground at Corners will be
greatly improved as soon as the weather
permits and many conveniences added
As the electric road will pass close to the
grounds, they will be easy of access and
no doubt thousands of the lovers of the
American game will attend the numerous
contests now being arranged for next sea-
son.
The new road, too, will be great boom
TO the housewife. 1t will give her an op-
porLun;ty, by stspping outside Of her door,
" walking but short distance, to get on
an Electric and do her shopping at
wherever she finds it to her best advantage.
This great convenience will cost her but a
trife, and she can return home at almost
any hour of the day, without waiting
several hours for train.
The miners and breaker boys, too, will
be a source of great revenue to the road
Instead of remaining in their respective
patches" they will visit one OF the large
towns along the road and spend few
hours seeing ths sights, etc.
Ashland, Grardville, Shenandoah and
Mahanoy City theatres will be better
patronized by oat-oftown people, and the
balls and parties will not suffer for lack of
patronage.
