An Expensive Lampshade,

Higgins, the street car conductor, was
on the night turn last week and he did
his sleeping in the daytime.
When he woke up from his much
needed rest one afternoon his industrious
little wife brought out for his admira-

own pretty hands, and its scaI1oped Dor.

little holes, through which the light of
the parlor lamp would fall on the table.
Tell me if you think it is pretty"
demanded Mrs. Higgins, holding the
shade ont for her husband to inspect it,

turned pale and said, in a hoarse voice.
"You made those holes with my bell.

Eyes, dear, while you were asleep.
But what makes you speak that way?-

at the sudden change that had come
over the unfortunate Higgins.

The political campaign in the state
OF Washington will be systematically
fnaugurated with the beginning of the
ensuing week, from which time until
the polls are closed in November it
will be pushed with enthusiasm and
vigor by the executive committees and
leaders of all parties. 1t is worthy of
comment, as an indication of the SUI
perior attachments of the masses of the
present day, that the campaign meth
DDS pursued but quarter of a century
BACK, in which the tin horn brigade
was most important factor in electinp
a candidate, are now relegated to the
rear, while the voters demand an in
telligent and unprejudiced argument
from party speakers Of the national and
state issues involved in the result of
the ballot. The voters of the nation
are devoting more attention to the mass
of literature which is being published,
and the speaker who takes the plat
form without careful study of all the
points discussed in the political contro-
versies, will soon find himself put to
disadvantage and compelled to beat a
retreat in the very face of his op.
ponents. And in keeping with this
condition of affairs, the executive COM
mittees of the several parties will find
their wisest course in flooding the
country with the best literature which
they can secure. The results will be
more satisfactory in most cases than
those received by the average campaign

One of the most notable events in
scientific circles during the past week
has been the discovery of a fifth moon
circling around the huge planet Jupiter,
the discovery having been made by
Prof E. E. Barnard, of the Lick OBJ
servatory. NTr. S. w. Burnham, a
noted astronomer of this country, re-
ferring to the matter, says: at is the
most important discovery of the CEN
tury, and will give Prof. Barnard a
niche in the temple of fame by the side
OF Calico and Hersehel." The newly
discovered member of the Jovian FAM
lily is mere speck of light, and is only
to be seen under the most favorable
circumstances.

"lf you had come and asked me for
them you might have had all Won
wanted and welcome" This, IL story
tellers are to be trusted, is what farmers
always say when they find bad boys rob
bing their orchards. And it is true be-
yond question that people in general
like to have their rights as proprietors
respected, even in the most trifing mat
tiers. So it was with an Irishman of
whom a reporter tells little story.
There was a special celebration of
some kind in the church where he
owned a pew, The building was
crowded, and just as the service began
this proprietor made his way down the
aisle to the door of his pew, which was
only two seats from the front. In IL
were two or three ladies, strangers to
him.
There was still abundance of room
near the head of the seat, but he stopped
at the door, laid one hand upon the back
of the pew next in front, and with an
impressive wave of the other said. in a
voice loud enough to be heard all over
the church:
Come out of that nowr'
The ladies, surprised and greatly con-
fused, obeyed with all haste, but no
sooner was the last one out in the aisle
than the man waved his hand gra-
ciously:
Now in wild yez again, 4" he remarked
louder than before, ian make yerselves
ter home. Oh only wanted yez to know
VINO owned the pew"
bis tone and gestures and smile were
SO polite and reassuring that the ladies
resumed their seats and the priest went
on with the service.-Youth's Com.

The Antiquity of the Arabian Horse

How far back do the pedigrees run
and what is the origin of the Arabian
horse? These questions it is impossible
to answer definitely. The Bedouins
themselves believe that Allah created
the equine genus on their soil. "The
root or spring of the horse u.s." they say,
IN the land of tie Arab" This pious
belief is shared by few generous souls
In England and America, a small but
devoted band, who gallantly defend the
cause OF the Arabian horse against his
only rival, the modern English thorough
bred. Chief among these faithful was
the late Major r. d. Upton, who visited
the desert himself and who has recorded
his experience and his views.
Major Upton concluded that the horse
was found in Arabia mot later than
about 100 years after the deluge, If in
deed he did not find his way there i'm
mediately after the exodus from the ark.
which is by no means improbable" and
this probability the author then proceeds
seriously to consider. According TO Ma
,or Upton and few kindred spirits all
other breeds are mongrels, and the only
way TO procure horsefiesh in its best and
purest form Is TO go back to the fou s.ain
head-to the horse Of the desert.-Atian.

Amerfca,a Day.

The people of Mahanoy City are making
pr; psrations tor Americas Day, September
8, and it will undoubtedly be a red-letter
day for our neigh boring town. The varioua
committees, including the G. A. R., were
in consultation with the Executive Com
mittee on Saturday evening for the purpose
of making the preliminary preparations
for the day. AS an extra inducement for
the visitors on that day, the G A. R. have
decided to unveil the monument dedicated
to the soldier dead, and the Eighth regi-
ment and many dignitaries of the state win
be in attendance. The citizens of Maha-
noy City, including all classes, are giving
every encouragement to make the day one
to surpass anything of the kind yet held
in the county, and they will undoubtedly
succeed.

RAILROAD RUMORs.

Echoes Along the Line Caught by the
Newspaper Reporters.
1t is reported that the Shenandoah brach
# the Phi adelphiA s. Reading Railroad
will be used exclusively for freight and
coal traits shortly and that the Lebigh
Valley road will have the passenger traffic
between Shenandoah and Ash 'snA
Thete and other reports make changes at
the depots of the two roads in town q mat
or of daily expectancy. That there will
be several changes at She Lehigh Valley
freight depot is certainty, as it is intended
that the p 81 Il. and L. V. r. r. freight
business shall be consolidated.
It is also reported that the Reading Com
pany will shortly accede to the request for "a
miners train bet Reen this town and Track
vile, but what arrangement will be made
is not stated.
The proposed changes in the running Of
passenger trains will probably be made
known this week. A number of trains will
be taken of and the runs of others will be
extended. Provision will be made to give
the crews places on freight trains and runs
as extras.
Several changes went into effect on the
Lehigh road Sunday. All the trains carry
two red flags at the rear of the last cars, as
is done on all Z. Il r. trains
Five passenger trains we're taken of on
Sunday-two on the Jersey Central and
three on the Lehigh Valley. One OF them
was the fast flyer" between PottsviIle and
Eeston. The engineer and fireman of that
train are now running between Delano and
Ashland, and Lizard Greek junction and
Pottsville. They will move their famili s
from Pottsyille to Delsno.
The passenger train that left Delsno at
3:45 p. m. for Orwigsburg has been taken
of and the crew has been transferred to a
new fast freight train between Dolano and
Lizard Greek via Mauch Chunk.
The taking off of trains have not re.
duced the working forces thus far. Places
have been made for all by reducing the
number of working hours of certain crews.
A. P. Bakslee has been re,sppointed re

road, with headquarters at Del mo.
