An Inspiriting Occasion.

One of those inspiriting occasions which
the "Heelers" in Ward three conceive to be
the one thing needed to keep the discon-
tented within the Democratic fold was held
last Tuesday evening in small hall on
Jefferson street rented to Paul Pomeleau,
one of the special police officers appointed
by the present administration. 4
The meeting was Of like kind to that
reported in the JOURNAL Of last week, but
somewhat less riotous, judging from the re-
ports received. Those who report this
meeting of last Tuesday evening for the
JOURNAL, assert, however, that as at the
first, gallon of Intoxicating liquor was
prominent factor, and that "whistles" were
wet with frequency calculated to arouse
Democratic enthusiasm to what was deemed
the proper pitch.
1t seems that there are many in that ward
who have voted the Democratic ticket in
the past but who now are discontented on the
ground that the promises made last sprin 8
weren't fulfilled. This feeling of discon-
tint the "heelers" regard as dangerous,
as well they may. Something must be
done to allsy the trouble and the method
of procedure is said to be, invite the boys
to the meeting with the hint, "Something
to pass away the time you know" referring
to the rum which is in readiness. Getting
s.de boys" assembled and their discomfort
soothed with the potent liquid-nothing
C c,mes from the agency that isn't potent if
reports may be believed-are the next steps.
THIS done the way is clear to excite the
plrtisanship and fill the ears with promises
40 delusive and false as those made last
spring and which haven't been kept.
Some Of those who were prominent at the
previous meeting we're unable to attend the
last one but it is understood that the city
was represented by member of the street
department and speeches were made by
Raymond Michaud and Joe Wedge. One
who was at the meeting says that member
of the regular police force was present and
assisted in the ceremonies and libations.
Whether he left his beat AMI volunteered
his assistance or whether he was detailed
by the city marshal to attend and keep har-
mony and be at hand in case any of the
neig .bors fell through window Is not yet
l.arned.

him to go away, and the lad followed him

OUR NEW LIBRARY.
Work On The Building will Begin in The Early
Spring.

The trustees of the Lithgow library have
accepted the plans for the new library build
ing and the cut published in this issue 10
from these plans which were made by Neal
Hopkins Of Pittsburg, Pa. The design
is certainly very attractive one, but it ID
difficult to get comprehensive idea of the
builaing a. it will appear when completed
for the reason that the grounds about it will
be terraced, producing q more imposing
effect than can be had from the picture.
The building will be constructed of gran
ite. The windows will be plate glass and
the interior finish will be in oak. The
ground dimensions will be 96 by 40 feet,
and the building will front on Winthrop
street. with the ends facing on State and
Pleasant streets. The plans provide for q
structure excellently adapted to the needs
of library. and even more ornate and i'm
posing than was confidently expected, in
view of the fact that but S25 900 is availa-
BILE for the construction.
In the end Of the building facing State
street and on the first floor will be large,
well-ighted reading room. The books will
be kept in the opposite or Pleasant street
end. Between the two and in the rear,
facing the entrance from Winthrop street,
will be the librarians room and the cata-
logue room. In the second story will be q
large hail. which will be occupied by the
Antiquarian Society.
Tho committee will Immediately receive
proposals and the work of construction will
begin in the early spring.

in at least one home in this city royal
more, 4 very hearty welcome for himself
and all his devotees, who came there to pay
taeir respects to the patron saint of St. Val
entines day. The occasion referred to was
the delightful valentine party which Miss
Bertha Lawrence gave At her home corner
Of Green and Grove streets Wednesday
evening. The entertainment and decorations
were most original and unique. St. valen-
tine is supposed to have dealt with many
hearts in his somewhat ambiguous and ro-
mantle career but he had bigger task on
his hands last evening than Cupid
ever found at summer resort. The
rooms we're decorated throughout with
crimson hearts; little stingy hearts,
great big generous hearts, hearts
that seemed on the verge of fatty degener-
alton, hearts slender, hearts broad, hearts
young, hearts old, hearts tender and hearts
bold. but all of them Of An esthetic, bewild-
efing, not to say almost overpowering

MAKING LIQUOR IN JAIL.
A Secret Service Mans Discovery of a
 Colored Prisoners Trick.

A Secret Service Mans Discovery of a
 Colored Prisoners Trick.
 ssIf you want to see some queer things" said secret service officer, whose speciality is internal revenue cases, addressing a New York Sun man, ''you ought to travel with me for 8 few weeks. You would soon make up your mind to one thing-that when a man wants drink he will have it. No law in the world will prevent him. It's all very we'll to say. Suppose the man is locked up in jail?' but that won't stop him if he is man of intel ligence and wants drink very badly. I ran across a case down south last summer that illustrates the simplest and crudest way of producing alcohol. I had been spending some weeks in central Tennessee and had run down the Bill Maverick gang of moonshiners and landed them all in jail-six ot them. They were a very smart lot and for safekeeping they were put in sep arate cells. About two weeks after the arrest, when had to return to tes- tify in the case, went into the jail,
 
 (that was the name was going by at the time), there's whisky in the jail. 1 believe your moonshiners are mak. ing it.
 "'Like enough I told him; they know how. Just shift them into new quarters at dinner, and see what we can find in their cells
 ''While my prisoners were kept in another part of the jail we examined their cells thoroughly, but there was not sign of a still, nor of any whisky stored away. So we had to find fresh clew. It was well-managed jail, and I was reasonably sure that the liquor was not smuggled init was most likely made on the premises. found by making inquiries that the prisoner who oftenest showed the eff fleets of drinking was an intelligent colored man, who had been put ip charge of the stOreroom. His business was to serve out the raw food to the cooks and keep the storeroom in order.
 That's my manp I said to myself, and had him locked in his cell and went into the storeroom. It was just as I expected. He had a dozen fruit jars full of corn beer so strong that about two glasses of it would go to an old drinkers head. It was very easily made; he had only to make mixture of molasses and water, start it fer menting by adding little yeast, and then throw in few handfuls of corn. Any Pennsylvania farmer will tell you how to make corn beer. Afte ferment- ing few days, it contained from twelve to twenty per cent of falcohol. He had been doing fine business selling this to the prisoners and had keot himself well primed. The remedy here was to appoint new storekeeper who was not quite so smart"

WHALES IN sEHRINo SEA.
Nearly All the Valuable Sea Monsters
 Have Left the North Pacific.

The valuable whales have about all disappeared from the North Pacific. Behring and Olhotsk seas 10 longer contain them, and the Arctic ocean is the only recognized whaling ground left. There are but fifty whalers now afoat in the western ocean, while 8 half century ago there were six hun. dred such ships. There are ten steam vessels in this fleet and the rest are de- scribed by Harper's Weekly as relics ancient barks and brigs that date from the long ago, are seldom insured and with difficulty secure crews. The captain and crew go on shares or are paid a percentage of the seasons catch, and six or eight whales will credit the former with four or five thousand dollars and the sailors with a couple of hundred dollars each. For three seasons one of the whalers has not secured single whale, while one crew captured twenty-one whales in the summer of 1891.
 In 1891 Sitka was surprised by the visit of whaler, the first in the many years since the Fairweather grounds of Mount St. Elias were abandoned. This ship had sailed in March for that old ground, but off Prince William sound nine right whales were talzer in eight days, and tenth had been wounded, when the bark grounded ir a fog, unshipped and broke the rud- der. It then worked it's way to Sitka, and for fortnight gave new inter. est to the life of that quiet capital.
 There had been time to clean anc slightly deodorize the ship during its sail into port, and it fell disappointingly short of the traditional whaler. But it was interesting to visit it, and have the cheerful mate show pieces of whalebone six and seven feet in length stacked up like cord wood; to see the boats, harpoons, knives and tackle and the huge vats in the brick furnace or deck, where the mountains of blubhe1 are tried out. But the blubber and oil are little regarded in this day, as whalebone at six dollars a pound is the most valuable part of the monster. Catching their whales so fast, this crew had not time to cut up one whale before another was sighted, and the hold was filled with the blubber of the first whale while they were busy har- booming and cutting the bone from the later catches. They had only fou hundred and thirty barrels of oil, and the tongue of one whale yielded thir teen of those barrels. From nine whales there came ten thousand pounds o1 bone
