An Incident Not Especially Surprising L.
Life at q Seaside Resort.


There was quite an exciting episode
at one of the leading hotels at Long
Branch the early part of last week in
which the youngest daughter of prom
inent New Yorker, whose family is
summering here and dapper young
fellow, clerk in New York life in
surance Office, took active parts. The
young lady had become enamored with
the dashing Young clerk and thought
that an elopenent with him would be a
fitting climax for her seasons sojourn
at the seaside. Accordingly the young
lady made all the necessary arrange.
ments for hasty exit from the hotel,
and as she was about to jump into the
carriage in which sat her trembling
lover she was espied by her mother, who
quickly called the hotel officer to heE
assistance and succeeded in getting the
erring girl back to her room.
The young man, who had succeeded
in making good his escape, was latea

vania clubhouse by the enraged father.
and an exciting scene ensued. The young
man was threatened with an Immediate
arrest for attempting abduction, but
friends Of the poor clerk interceded, and
the matter was hushed up. Instead OF
spending happy honeymoon the young
lady has been sent to her aunt's, pend
ing the reopening of her boarding
school. New York Telegram.

One does not like to read about the
universally of betting going on there

alone, women who have no regulations
to lose, but all sorts and conditions,
young and old, gray haired women, to
whom you would think eternity was
appealing as an imminent call, young
girls finging aside textbooks for bet
ting books. Rich and poor, the mania
has seized them all, and a poolroom is
at their disposal where they can empty
their purses and display their lack of
horse sense with the recklessness char
acteristic of women who, having stepped
outside the barriers that mark the line
of safety, care little how far they wan

HOW SLATE is MINED.
The Wonderful Skill of the WORKINGS Vino
Cut 1t Up.

The manaer IA which slate is mined
and cut up for purposes to which it is
applied is q process that is known to
| only a few people in this country, its
principal sources being in upper New
England and eastern Pennsylvania. 1t
is not taken out of shafts but it is quar-
ried out of big holes in the earth. Some
time ago, when the writer was at Ban.
gor, Pa, he was invited to go down
into one Of these quarries, about 200
feet deep and overland on rope, but
he declined the invitation, as l think
most inexperienced persons would do.
The slate is blasted out in huge blocks
and is hoisted out by steam and turned
over to the men who know how to re-
duce it to the proper size. Huge blocks
of it are taken in hand by these work
men, who cut notch into one end of
each riece. Then they take chisel and
a mallet, and they are so skillful in d.
Tecting their blows that they can split
the blocks of slate in almost any way
they please. IF you watch the slab OF
which one of them is working, you will
see little hair line running through it,
and presently the block will fall apart
On either side of this mark. The work
men will make this line go straight
through the middle, or to either corner
just as he likes l donot know just how
he does it, but he invariably accom-
plishes what he sets out to do
The smaller pieces thus produced are
taken in hand by another set of men,
who split them up into sheets of the
proper thickness TO, roofing slate This
they do with long bladed instrument
about the shape of q putty knife, but
many times larger, and if you saw
them do it you would marvel how they
got the sheets only one inch thick and
split it 80 times. The usual number Of
divisions is Is. These sheets are taken
and cut into squares by machinery.
Wherever there are slate quarries you
will find great many Welshmen, for
the best skaters come from Wales. Boys
follow the trade of their fathers, and
there are whole families and settlements
who know no other means of earning 3
living. New York Advertiser.

swarms In Western New York Ravaging
the Potato, Dat and Corn Fields.


Grasshoppers are proving a great pest
and source of annoyance and loss to
farmers in western New York. Reports
continue to come from nearly all coun-
ties of damage being done the crops by
them. In the eastern part of Livingston
county they are very numerous. Last
year they visited that section about two
weeks later than this, but there were
not so many as there are this year.
They are now doing great damage to
potatoes, carrots, corn and all growing
crops
Genesee and Wyoming counties also
report considerable havoc from the
grasshoppers. In the southwestern part
Of the state they are also so numerous
as to beget apprehension. In Allegany
county they are doing great damage.
Since the hay has been cut they have
taken to the oats, buckwheat and other
grains, in many instances literally ruin
ing whole fields. Several farmers, in
order to get better quality Of straw,
are cutting their oats while yet green,
believing that if left to ripen the grass
hoppers will destroy them.
Potatoes, which are very extensively
raised in Allegany county, are also suf.
fering from their ravages, and efforts
are being made to protect the crop. One
method which is being extensively used
is for number of boys and men, with
fishpoles, TO march abreast across the
fields, driving the pests befoEe chem,

Cost of Electric Cooking.

1t has been shown by recent expert
ments that there is practically no differ.
ence in cost between cooking by cleo
tricity and by coal, while the advan.
tages of the former method in point Of
comfort, cleanliness and safety are con
siderable. Of every 100 tons of coal
burned in an ordinary cooking stove 90
tons are, it is said, practically wasted,
whereas with electricity the expense is
not so much on the fuel as on labor and
interest on machinery.
