Occasionally Congress does some thoroughly

an investigation Of the great coal combine. 1t

of greedy combinations into countless frag-

be astonished 20 learn that few railrOads-no
more than half dozer-have complete control
az the supply Of anthracite coal which is mined
IN Ienusyl mia. and that this combination has
enriched itself enormously and. in a broad
sense. dI-honestlv. at the expense OF the con-
sinner. Limitation Of the output was the first
move. and Il has been estimated that but for
the repressise Influences there would be
at least ten rn.lliou additional tons Of the
black fuel in the market every wear.
The natural result Of limitation was a higher
price for coal a. the plymouth. Then the
freight rates were exalted; eNorbitautly SO.

railroads charge much more for carrying coal

The Bargain Stood.

A very absentminded member of the
French institute was reading the newspa-
per in the Casino at Dieppe. He was alb
sorbed by his reading, and with his left
hand he unconsciously pushed the files of
newspapers on the table. Each moment he
sent them farther from him. Beyond the
papers was an inkstand, which at last the
moving papers pushed over the side of the
table. 1t fell on the trousers of a Paris
banker, who was furious at the accident
The absentminded man offered his best
excuses without sppeasing the bankers
wrath, who shrieked that his new trousers
were ruined.
But, sir, will cheerfully pay for them.
Be good enough to give me your card, and
will send the money to your hotel"
ITO my hotel, sir don't know you. |
must instantly have the 80 francs those
trousers cost"
The member of the institute drew forth
the 80 francs and handed them to the bank
er. Then he said:
''Now that you have been paid, hope
you have too much of the delicacy Of gen
tleman to remain in my trousers. You
know they are mine, and insist upon their
immediate delivery to me. You have nc

Mr.. Marshall Williams and his son

at their elegant new home on West
Broadway Saturday evening. About rs
invited guests honored the occasion, and
the hospitality dispensed by the hosts
and hostesses was most cordial and
generous Music was furnished by the
Knightville band, relieved at intervals
with selections on the piano by Miss
Clemmons, sister Of the younger Mrs.
Williams. Meantime the guests were
surfeited with ice cream, fruit, pastry,
coffee and confectionery. Praise of the
pretty new house of the Williamses fell,
from every ones lips, and no dou BIT

commands at Warsaw, always recon-

percentage of ball cartridge should be is

teach skirmishers to make the most of
cover" 1t would also be slightly danger
