From the Wilkes Barre Record.

stated that he would honor no order
signed by the commissioners for any

that when the part payments were made
there was no question as to the correct
ness of the contract and the validity of
the whole business, but now he proposes
to pay out no more money until Il site is

An important change in coal mining
in the Wyoming valley went into effect
on Tuesday, by which the Delaware and
Hudson Company's lease of the tract
between Miners Mills and the Wilkes
Barre mountain, and owned by the
Hollenback estate, expires. A new
lease of the property has been executed
with the Laurel Run Coal Company for
100000 The names of the officials,
with the fact that the Laurel Company
will ship over the Wilkes-Barre and East
ern Railroad, make it apparent that the
new company is under the control of the
New York, Susquehanna and Western
Railroad, a Vanderbilt line, which also
controls the Algonquin Company, or
ganized last year. There is sufficient
coal in the new lease to last for fifty
years, and the Vanderbilts propose to
get all they can of it.

A Battle Over Whiskers.

st. Louis is the scene of lively bat.
tic between organized employers and
the walters in hotels and restaurants,
etc. 1t is the Same old strife over whisk-
ers. The employers want tho men to
be clean shaver, and the employees re-
fuse to allow tho hirsute adornment
which covers their faces to be removed.
The trouble has even extended to the
hackmen and coachmen, who have COM
bined with tho walters and have taken
firm stand against allowing their
whiskers to be removed.
They have been seeking to obtain the
sympathy of the labor organizations Of
St Louis, but the members Of the Bar
bers' union are against them and arc
ready to cut the Objectionable whiskers
off, shave thom off, chop them off-in
short, anything to remove them.
The Legislature has taken a hand in
the trouble, and two bills have been i'll
troduced, one requiring all walters in
hotels, restaurants, etc, to DO clean
shaven and tho other making it mis-
demeanor for an employer to discrimi-
nate against an employee who wears a
board. Albany Argus.

Tho Mysterious individual Who stalscd
Count Ionifaco and Caught On.
Hero is tho first explanation Of a
hitherto inexplicable circumstance Of tho
Could Castellane marriage:
Among the guests at that most adver-
tised Of American marriages was q man,
newly rich, not distinguished for ole-
gance Of manner, breadth of education
or for anything save al inordinato and
abnormal itch to "get into society" and
q monumental cheek in furthering an
ambition not uncommon to people Of
his antecedents.
But he was there, and all the Four
Hundred looked on and wondered, es-
pecially those that were not invited.
It turns out now that this hearty old
buck of humble origin, small beginnings
and unbounded aspirations got his invi-
tation to the wedding through Count
Boniface do Castellane, the bridegroom.
As everybody knows, Count Boniface
had very little money prior to his mar
riage with tho American heiress.
He was forced to borrow.
He was short of collateral or other
material security, but his social position
was valuable in the eyes of the man to
whom have referred.
The latter came to tho counts assist
ance and Endorsed his notes to the
amount Of 100000, am told, and
thereafter was the count bosom friend.
Wherever the Count Castellane was,
there was "the little JOKER" and Of
course he got an invitation to the we'd
ding, and Of course he went
You can bet that this particular ex-
ample Of the newly rich never misses q
trick in his social game.
And such is tho complex and hetero-
geneous character Of our social fabric

there just tho same.
