A farmer from Roaring Greek had quite a
costly deal in eggs on his hands yesterday.
One day last week he sold an East Lloyd
street woman three dozen eggs. As the
woman was busy at the time she told the
farmer to leave them in the kitchen, but
when she put them away she found there
were only two and a half dozen. Yesterday
the farmer again called at the woman's house
and his attention was drawn to the shortage.
He not only denied that he made a mistake,
but also positively denied having visited the
house. The woman had "a warrant issued
and the evidence she produced was of such
a convincing character the farmer gladly paid
SiO9 costs to have the justice dismiss the
case.

tween this town and Mahanoy Plane, on the
Philadelphia and Reading Railroad, and it
narrowly escaped destruction.
This train comes to town at 1892 o'clock
every night and remains ON the side track
near the limerick street crossing until 2:O5
a. m, when the first trip is made to Mahanoy
Plane. At about five minutes of one this
morning the engineer and fireman, who had
stepped into one of the cars, saw an unusual
blaze in the engines cab. They hurried out
with the rest of the crew and found that fire
had secured "a good hold ON the woodwork of
the iron horse Buckets were secured and
a noighboring hydfant helped The engines
tank in supplying the water. The fire was a
stubborn one and fearing that the crew
would not be able to cope with it Thomas
OConneil, a resident of Coal street, sounded
the fire alarm but the work Of the trainmen
was so effective that the services of the fire
department were unnecessary and the COM
pany was stopped before they reached the
scene. The cab was pretty badly burned, but
the engine was in condition to make the
regular run to Mahanoy Plane. The cause
of the fire is unknown, but it is supposed
that it started in a piece OF cotton waste.

portion of the Delaney property at the
corner of Centre and Jardin streets for
$4,000. The latter proper y has a frontage of
thirty feet on Jardin street and seventy five

sidered worth much, but the site is a most
excellent one and quite close TO the central

ments this spring, and in that case the prop
erty will become one Of the best in the

She is pretty and pert, and as she enters
the grocery store the eyes of the proprietor
follow her around in silent admiration. She
asks for mackerel and while she is trying to.
make up her mind as to whether she will
take for five cents or a fye.cent one, she
eats nuts out of a basket and throws the
shells ON the floor.
The eyes Of the proprietor still follow her
but there is a different look in their depth.
After having nibbled at som dates, whose
stones follow the shells, she tries some
crackers, samples some cheese and finally
decides on the five cent mackerel, which she
requests the grocoFyman to send around as
soon as possible"
With a final grab at a handful of nuts she
makes her way out, leaving a trail of shells,
stones and cracker crumbs.

and spends the rest of the evening in trying
to calculate how much he lost on that

Although several months must pass before
the county political conventions will be
held slate making is already under way
and if the Democrats of this town do half
when the proper time comes that they de-
clare now the county convention of their
party will outclass any circus ever covered by
a tent.
There has been unusual activity ia town,
but those who have had occasion to pass
through the streets at the "wee sma'" hours
Of the morning are the only ones outside the
active ones that know it. Secret conferences
are held every night and whatever is talked
over or done is Immediately placed under
seal. Enough has leaked out through the
cracks however to satisfy those who have
heard the leakings that Shenandoah will lay
down the law to Pottsville next fall and
insist, as the largest town in the county, that
she is entitled to more than one county Office
and one or more others.
A prominent Democrat who has been pick
ing up loose straws outlined a plan of cam
paign for next fall in this style: 80. X. p.
Scheiny must be pacifed; he must not he
allowed to seek a county office, or he will
spoil the game, so we will slate him for the
Shenandoah post office. There, now, that
Scheihy is out of the way, we can go on
with the slate-but hold up Another OBJ.
stacle presents itself. Mike Malone must be
satisfied, but that can be easily accomplished
by making him Revenue Collector, so now for

How is that? Great, isn't it? Yes, / know

would the many poor
families in our midst subsist2 This is an old
question, but is just as weighty as it was
when first propounded. Some people have
answered and the HERALD has voiced their
sentiments the people would starve unless
they could seek employment elsewhere, or
the Town had industries independent Of the
coal mines upon which they could rely for at
least some revenue. But others have
ridiculed the idea of establishing industries
here and more than once have they ridiculed
the HERALD for unfolding and urging it.
This is a picture Of the past, Now for the
present.
Yesterday J. R. Coyle, Esq, called at the
HERALD Office and caused the publication OF
a notice to the effect that on April 25th, next,
an application will be made for a charter for
the incorporation Of the Shenandoah Man
ufacturing Company" the character and
object of which is the manufacture of hats,
caps and clothing.
The application is the result of a combina-
ton which has absorbed the plant and in
ten ests of the firm Of Robbins & Housenick,
which has been conducting a hat and cap
manufacturing business o N North Bowers
street for the past two years and a half.
The new company is a stock organization
with a capital of ? $4,000 and has the follow
ing incorporators and officers: President, H.
". Titman Vice President, J. NJ. Robbins
Treasurer, P. J. Gaughan; Secretary and
superintendent J. S. Housenick Asst slant
Superintendent, L. J.. Wilkinson. Messrs. J.
NJ. Robbins and J. s.. Housenick constituted
the old firm. When interviewed by a repor.
ter yesterday Superintendent Housenick said
the incorporation of the new company has
been projected to bring new capital into our
plant and to so increase its equipment and
general facilities for production that we will
be able to compete with the large producers
in various sections of the state and give this
town an industry from which a number OF
people may secure employment and revenue
and, of course, the incorporators intend to
make money for themselves"
When Robbins & Housenick started bust.
ness on Bowers street two years and a hall
ago they had four machines in operation
and the employees of the plant, all told, were
half a dozen. To-day the plant has fifty
machines and an equal number of operatives
working full time. and when the new COM
pany is chartered and ready for business il
will begin making preparations to greatly
increase the quarters, equipment and nun
Der of operatives, and with that accom-
plished the credulous people will probably
be convinced that Shenandoah encourages
home industry after all.
The business is so prosperous at present
that four travelling salesmen are kept on the
road constantly, in addition to special repre-
sentatives in the south and west. Mr.. w. J.
sincock will continue as one Of the statesmen
under the new company.
