II isn't always safe for a small boy
to take his fathers Jokes and games too
seriously. This was shown very plain
~ at one time by the experience OF an
Engllshman and his son upon a rail-
road journey which they took together.
While the little fellow was gazing out
OF the open window his father slipped
the hat OF the boys head In such a
way as to make his son believe that It
had fallen out OF the window. Tho boy
was very much upset by his supposed
loss when his father consoled him by
saying that he would whistle II back.
A little later he whlstled, and the hat
reappcared. Not long after the little
lad seized upon his fathers hat. and,
alnging It out OF the window, shouted
Nov. papa. whistle your hat back

GAVE IN OF Pennsylvania MINE.
Ten Acres Near Wilkesbarre Settle Nearly
Two Feet, but No One Injured.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, June %. Consider
able alarm has been caused at Grand
Tunnel, ten miles from here, by an ex-
tensiye settling of the surface over the
No. 8 colliery of the Susquehanna Coal
Company.
The mine had been working for some
weeks, and the company, fearing cave,
had warned the people living over the
affected portion of the mine. A week or
two passed, but there was no distur-
bance, and the people apprehended no
danger, but late last night the ground to
the extent Of ten acres began to settle
gradually. The alarm spread quickly,
and the people rushed from their houses,
carrying articles of value
No great damage was done. The ground
settled two feet in some places. and in
Others only a few inches, and numerous
cracks appeared in the surface. The set
tling continued for half an hour, and was
accompanied by low rumbling noises as
of distant thunder Gaping figures in
the earth ran in all directions and many
of the houses were badly damaged.
The houses occupied by the families of
Fireman David Noble, Assistant Outside
Foreman Patrick Jennings and Edward
Kane, were warped and twisted, and the
occupants were compelled to abandon
them There are about twenty houses
affected and the families occupying them
are very uneasy. The men in the mine
who had been strengthening it by props
at the weak spots, all escaped uninjured.
The whole OF the upper left is closed in
No further disturbance is expected.

AT BEAUTIFUL DUCK POND.
The Press Employees Had Good Time
Sstur day.

Fourteen members Of the Press force
enjoyed an outing at Duck Pond Satur-
day. They went out in the morning in
Seeley's tally-ho coach and arrived at
Kenney's cottage about $50. Then they
had big breakfast and late in the fore
noon indulged in one of the greatest
luxuries of the season-a swim in the
clear, cool water on the smooth beach N
front of the cottage.
AT four o'clock in the afternoon they
had a clam ohowder that was not only
gigantic in proportions but out of sight
in quality, paradox that only those who
were present can appreciate.
A native rowed into the pretty cove to
see what all the fun was about and he
brought with him big string of pickerel
and also package of disaster for two
of the party and several bushels of merri-
ment for the rest. These two essayed
to try the fisherman's boat in hopes of Sc
curing some of his luck, but they didn t
possess his experience and in trying to
pass each other in the middle of the boat,
they lost their balance and went over.
They weren't far from shore, but the
water was just as wet as it was in the
middle of the lake and it required just
as much fire and time and patience to
get the wetness out of their garments.
They came home in the evening

PATTERSON TO REMAIN.
Judge Butler sustains Receiver of. the
Colorado Securities Co.

Mr.. Frank G. Patterson, formerly of
this city, and now prominent citizen of
Denver, Colorado, was appointed receiver
of the Colorado Securities company of
that city, whose president, Mr.. Aldrich
lately fed the town. Many of the Eastern
creditors wanted one of their friends ap-
pointed, and tried to have Mr.. Patterson
removed on the ground that he had done
things not for the best interests of the
creditors. After hearing in the matter
Judge Butler said the petitioners had
failed to show any sufficient reason f or
Mr.. Patterson's removal, and that he was
more than ever convinced that it had been
a good appointment, and that Mr.. Patter-
son had been unusually diligent in serv
ing the interests of all concerned.
