MONUME NT TO THE WAR
TINE" NEGRo.-The Chicago Times
Herald says: 1.-THE movement
started in the South to erect mouu-
ment to commemorate the unique
fidelity of the negroes during the
war in caring for the homes and
property of their masters, and in re-
cognition OF the fact that not one in
stance is known of any acts of vio-
lence and scarcely one of betrayal
of the sacred trust reposed in them
by their masters on going forth to
the war, is a movement which will
peculiarly commend itself to all.
The erection Of such a monument
would not only be indicative Of fine
sense Of gratefulness, but beautiful
thing to do in expressive apprecia-
ton Of one Of the noblest traits of
our nature. Many people at the
North also would, no doubt, count it
a pleasure to contribute to a con-
spicuous memorial of such char
acter. An instance of \ fidelity so
absolute is not so common that the
world can well afford to pass it over
unnoted and aforementioned.
But more than that. IT were we'll
to consider the influence which it
could not fail to have on the people
of both races in the South, especially
in their present somewhat sorely
strained relations. AS u preventive
of crimes it would he more effective
than thousand barbsric iynchings."

THU DIAMOND DOINGS.
Yesterdays Game Between Shen-
andOah and HaZletOn Well
Played.
IOMETEAMSHOWS UP WELL
POTTSVILLE'S DISCARDED PITCHER WAS
IN THE BOX AND MADE THE CON-
TEST AN INTERESTING ONE.
Kennedy, the Catcher, Jumped the Shen-
andOahS at HazletOn Yesterday,
But the Management Will
Not Bring Him Back.

The American people want winners, in
whatever branch of business or sport
they are interested. This was illustrated
in Philadelphia last week. Thursday
&c, 900 people went to the base ball game.
The Philadelphia club lost. On the next
day but 1000 were there, but the Phillies
won. Their winning proved a good
thing for them, for on the following day
Is 900 people paid to see them play again
and win. The Philadelphia and Shen-
andoah people are alike in this respect.
The latter will not patronize a losing
club.
IL may be that our team has made up
its mind to pull itself together and give
a better article than it has been giving
the people. At all events the players
braced up at Hazleton yesterday and
made the game very close one. From
start to finish the contest was exciting
and brilliant plays were numerous
Mattern, the pitcher the Pottsvilles re.
leased on Saturday, pitched a strong
game for Shenandoah, and but for two
fumbl by the infelders the game would
have been prolonged for more than nine
innings. Merriman aud Clark also
played well.
Contrary to rumors there is no likeh
hood of the nome team disbanding, or
being transferred to some other place. 1t
is confidently stated that the season
will be played here, but there may be
change of management to syndicate.
This change, however, is entirely depend
ent upon the willingness of Manager
Brennan to surrender the franchise, and
at present he is not inclined to do so. In
this he may change, however, during the
next two weeks.
Kennedy, the catcher, Jumped" the
team at Hazleton yesterday. He received
$25 advance money when he signed and is
few dollars ahead of the management
His departure is not regretted by the
patrons of the game, or the management,
He was signed on the strength of repre-,
sentations that he caught in eleven games
for the Brooklyn national league club
last year, but with Shenandoah he did
not display enough ability to play with a
third. rate amateur team. He was awk
ward, slow and everything else WI lich is
not in the make up OF a man who knows
how to play ball. The home MANAGEMENT
says it will not go to the trou pie Of
having him blacklisted for the "j Imp,
because he is not worth the trouble
There was a report current last might
that Gill intended to attach tn gate
receipts of the home team for salask due
One of the managers said today tn t Gil
is blowing" and that there is no money
due him.
The score of the home teams ga be at
Hazleton yesterday was as follows

It was well done Icing ago by a man
equally innocent and more abroad, and
has not changed much since. The
Turks are still on guard at the cradle
and the grave Of Christ, to try and keep
the devout Christians from scattering up
the walls with each others blood. The
lamps have been carefully and nearly
equally divided between the Greeks,
Catholics, and Armenians, a. well as
the space around and the time for wor-
ship.
What strikes the traveller most for
chilly on seeing Jerusalem for the first
time is the littleness of everything.
The Mount of Olives is a little mound !;
Mount Moriah is q scarcely perceptible
rise Of ground; Mount Zion is a gentle

The drink business not only robs US OF
much that we have and ought to enjoy,
but binders us from having great deal
which we ought to have. Suppose that
the men and money and effort which are
invested In this evil business were de-
voted to improving the conditions Of the
world about US! who can imagine even
the comfort, convenience, 'swise dealing,
Righteousness, judgement and equity!'
which might come into the life of the
defrauded, degraded and careworn
sufferers of this sin cursed world.
Suppose that the tens Of thousands OF
dollars of the hard earned wages Of the
labor men Of this town could be diverted
from the saloons they support, and put
into homes and schools and libraries
and public improvements for the COM
mon good! What = release from bondage
would result! What an increase OF COM
fort and joy and peace to the communi.
ty! What stride in the progress of the
coming kingdom Of heaven upon the
earth!
And the physical danger and material
loss caused by this evil are in reality the
least serious Of It's effects upon US. Con-
tagion and the transmission OF the dis
eases of alcoholism and the cost in dol
lars and cents In increased taxes and
hard conditions Of living are enough to
lead us to our own self protection but

Of the abuses Of drink, if we could really
stop to realize them, should awaken us
| to the most heroic efforts to save from
destruction and eternal ruin the multi.
tudes who are the victims of the drink
business. There is not vice or crime
which is not born Of intoxication OF

sive use of stimulation. Licentiousness

to vote or to lie for bottle OF whiskey
and there is no moral dependence to be
placed upon him. We all suffer in oul
minds and hearts because Of the fear OF
dread or uncertainty which haunts the
community afflicted with saloons and
drunkards. We never know what a mar
who gets intoxicated will do in his fit Of
insanity. And strange indeed is the fact
that people excuse what a man does in q
state Of intoxication as though somehow
he was not responsible for being crazed
by drink! Why should we submit tc
such evils which break our peace Of
mind and expose US and our children to
the most degrading influences Of the
world why should not all sober and law

Seamon neared the tree he mace one
grab for branch, and, missing it went
under the water. Another desperate
lunge was successful, and he climbed up
beside Carman.
ut was cold, raw April day, and
there was great danger of the men be-
coming benumbed and falling back into
the water. Lincoln called out to them
to keep their spirits up and he would
save them. The village had been
alarmed by this time, and many people
had come down to the bank. Lincoln
procured q rope and tied it to log. He
called all hands to come and help roll
the log into the water, and after this had
been done, he, with the assistance of
several others, towed it some distance
up the stream. A daring young fellow
by the name Of Jim Dorrell, then took
his seat on the end Of the log and it was
pushed out into the current with the ex-
pectation that it would be carried down
stream against the tree where Seamon

but Jim, in his Impotence to help his
friends, fell victim to his good inten-
tions. Making frantic grab at
branch, he raised himself off the log and
it was swept from under him by the
raging water, and he soon joined the
other two victims upon their forlorn
perch. The excitement on shore in
creased, and almost the whole popula-
tion Of the village gathered on the river
bank. Lincoln had the log pulled
up the stream and securing another
piece OF rope, called to the men in the
tree to catch it II they could when he
should reach the tree. He then 'strad-
died. the log himself and gave the word
to push out into stream. When he DASH
ed into the tree, he threw the rope over
the stump OF broken limb and let it
play until he broke the speed Of the log
and gradually drew it back to the tree,
holding it there until the three now near
II frozen men had climbed down and
seated themselves astride. He then gave
orders to the people on the shore to hold
fast to the end Of the rope which was
tied to the log, and leaving his rope In
the tree he turned the log adrift. and the

taut rope swung It around against the
