For years some manufacturers have been
making enormous profits by giving con-
sumors a small piece of plug for ten cents.
Recently very large manufacturer, seeing
that the time had come for better things has
placed a new brand called Battle AK on the
market which gives the consumer very
large piece of most excellent quality for the
same price. This has raised a great storm
among those who are hurt by IT, but it gives
joy to those who use the goods. In Battle
AK they get a greater quantity for their
money, while the quantity is equal to the
finest of other brands. This has naturally
had the effect of greatly decreasing the bust
ness of those who have held to the old way,
and it has materially curtailed their enor-
nous profits. On the other hand Battle Ak
now taxes the resources of three large fac
tories, which, by running night and day, are
still unable to make the goods fast enough to
satisfy the enthusiastic demand. The people
want good thing and the most of it that
they can get for the price. The manulac
turers who do the best by them will get theii
trade Their rivals naturally do not like it
They raise a mighty howl, but the Az will
/ cut them down.

CHATTANOOGA, Dec. 8l.-Chief Justice
Snodgrass was arrested ON "a warrant sworn
out by John r. Beasly, charging him with
assault with intent 30 kill. The warrant
was served by country constable, and
was taken out at sherman Heights, five
miles in the country and was kept very
quiet. Judge Snodgrass' attorneys applied
to Judge Moon, of the circuit court, for a
release ON "a writ Of habeas corpus. The
circuit court judge held that the warrant
was improperly issued and the defendant
chief justice was released. He is already
on bond TO appear at the next term of the
circuit court to answer to the charge Of
pistol carrying and malicious shooting.

THE OLD YEAR.

The dawn of tomorrow will usher in an
other New Year-the day on which another
cycle Of hope and labor, of shadow and sun
shine, is born. The present year will pass
into history as one of the most momentous
Of all that have preceded it. When its
history is written, and the details of the
progress of events are placed conspicu-
ously before the world, it will be a subject
for boast by all who have lived through it,
that rarely have men and women been per-
mtted to pass through a twelvemonth so
unusually eventful.
But whatever progress has been made has
been gained chiefly by individual effort. The
masses are but collection of units. 1t is 10
individuals we must look for the eleva-
tion Of mankind; it is to them we appeal in
the nations dire need, and to each citizen is
given duty to perform, the fulfllment or
neglect of which has corresponding effect
upon mankind
Many resolves will be made tomorrow, and
during the next twelve months many of them
will no doubt be broken, but an individual
resolution 20 live uprightly and to obey the
prcccpts of God can be productive Of
much good if honestly maintained 1t is
worthy the endeavor, no matter how many
failures the past may show
While standing upon the threshold of '9e,
and looking over the events of the past year,
the people Of fSchuyl kill county, and especially
Shenandoah, have many reasons to be thank
ful to kind Providence. The people of this
county have witnessed a revival in business,
although perhaps slight the avenues Of com
mercc have given employment to a greater
number of working people, and the financial
condition of schuylllil is in much better
shape.
Shenandoah has been especially favored,
one of the most severe seasons of drouth
experienced in this section of the country is
recorded in 1898, and its evil effect was
especially felt in the coal region, Manu-
featuring industries of all kinds were com
PEELED to cease operations for a limited time
roIlieries suspended work, throwing thou.

were greatly Inconvenience and canal boat,
ceased their trips while in some Localities
there was hardly sufficient water for the
actual necessities of life. When other towns
were suffering from an insufficient supply o.
the precious liquid, Shenandoah had al
abundance, and furnishing enough to keel
the mines iu operation and its working
people i'm employment. The majority of on
people do not appreciate this fact, but ha,
the supply of water been limited TO domest
purposes, and men thrown out Of work at th
mines, they would then have realized th
benefits they enjoyed.
The residents of Shenandoah can remembe
the old year with much pleasure because O
many other layors granted them. No seriou
outbreak of disease is recorded, and tn
avenues of business and commerce have eX
perienced a somewhat revival and activity

The New County an Issue.

From the Hazleton Sentinel
And so Senator John Coyle will make the
new county an issue in his fight for re-elec-
ton. He says he has the assurance Of Quay
that he will not touch the new county again
Very likely Quay tells Coyle his plans! The
Schuylkll politician made a sorry botch of it
when here looking after Quay's interests. 1t
is quite likely had he remained where he be-
longed, with the other honest politicians
down in schuylkill, Quay would not have
suffered defeat The Junior Senator is not
ignorant of the fact. Since waging the fight
against the new county, which Coyle takes
credit for defeating the discovery has been
that Schuylllills treasury was empty.

Grip Makes Its Appearance.

Grip in peculiar form Has made its ap-
pearance. Many persons who have had it
have been under the impression that it was
nothing more than a bad cold but physicians
pronounce it grip. Heretofore the disease
has been accompanied by fever, heart palpi-
tation and a feeling of deep depression. These
features are absent generally in the present
form of the disease. The feature of this
seasons grip is the laryngeal cough. Some
times it is mistaken for severe cold in the
head. There is pain in the back Of the neck
and slight headache. The disease is not
virulent enough to drive many of the suffer
ers to to their beds. At the present time
physicians say that many persons have the
grip and large number are not aware that
they are troubled by it. In the case of elderly
people there is danger that the modified form
of the grip may develop into pneumonia
unless care is exercised

In symnnthy Mith ArmenIa.

The Turks who are now giving exhibitions
here are accompanied by Gabriel Delreko
an Armenian, who speaks the English
language fuently and is a strong supporter of
the Armenian cause. He was one Of the
representatives who made up the Armenian
colony at the Worlds Fair. In conversation
with Mr.. Del,reko he informed a HERALD
representative that he had offered his SER
vices as a guide to the Red Cross Society who
have decided to go to Turkey to succor the
helpless Armenians. He was greatly disap-
pointed upon receiving the information that
the Society had completed all arrangements.
They added, however, that in event Of the
necessity arising for the services of guide
they would communicate with him Mr..
Dekreko is intensely patriotic and deeply
sympathises with these unfortunate people
The mere mention of Mohammeds name
causes the Armenians to show their intense
bitterness towards the Kurds.

Bonanza Mackay suggests one way
of bringing about an enlarged use of
silver" He said the other day: "It is
evident to me that the pressing neces-
sity now is for more subsidiary coin.
Why, whenever I want S25. $50 or 500
I'm change in New York for incidental
expenses. such as paying Office help.
etc, / have to send a clerk to the SUBJ
treasury with bills of large denomina-
ton to change. England. though a
monometallist country. manages her
circulating medium better than we do
ours. over there no bill of less denom-
nation than IS Cs25 of our money! Is
issued. and this makes a comparatively
large issue of subsidiary coin neces-
sary." This plan has often been advo-
Gated. but so great is their antipathy
TO silver that the goldbug powers at
washington and Wall street aren't in
clined to do even that much. France
discontinued the coinage OF the Ave
franc pieces some twenty years ago
and since that has sustained an admir-
able and satisfactory bimetallic system
by purchasing silver at market price
and coming the smaller silver coins
from time to time TO meet and satisfy
all the need OF the people for an ample
silver money circulation.

Henry Gannett. the statistician. cal
culates that In 1880 the wealth Of the
United States was $43,642, 900, 900, or an
average Of $50 to each individual; that
1t was about $500. 100000 In 1890, or
about $1,000 to each inhabitant. and
that at both dates 1t was greater than
the wealth OF any other nation. Mr..
Gannett finds that five per cent Of the
total wealth of the country is owned
by millionaires. twenty-seven per cent
by people worth from 100000 to $1,000
900 each. twenty-five per cent by those
worth from $4,000 to 100000. thirty
seven per cent. the largest percentage,
by those worth from $1,000 to $4,000
each. and six per cent by those owning
less than 81 900 each.
