sive soft wood lumber business will be a
thing of the past, are truthful and serious
statements.
1t is true, therefore, that some action
should be taken in regard to utilizing the
hardwood growth and have the manu-
featuring of it take the place of our
formerly prosperous soft wood lumber
business.
There are in the differen: sections of
the territory drained by our river, I'M
mense ridges of hardwood growth, in Its
primeval condition, it having escaped the
whitening and scorching heat OF the for
est fires, and its location and want OF
means of manufacture and transportlon
rendering it unfruitful to the lumber
men; so it remains, awaiting the develop
meut of our manufactures.
There is scarcely an acre of the timber
land that has been so fortunate as to
escape forest fires, that has not more or
less hardwood upon it, and there are, and
in not very remote sections, hundreds OF
acres where so far as telling the hard
wood is concerned the blow of the axe
has not been struck. OF course the
growth lying nearest the coast has been
pretty well culled, in the search for suit
able timber for frames to be used in the
construction of sea going vessels ship
building is another industry We very
much regret has nearly gone from our
midst), yet there is still a large acreage OF
Young growth suitable for stock for
many of the hardwood industries that
is very accessible.
VARIETIES OF HARDWOOD.
The principal hardwood trees, and
those which We would decree the most
suitable for manufacturing purposes, are
the beech, maple, birch and oak. There
are also ash of different varieties. elm,
Eastwood or linden, poplar, etc, etc, but
the beech, maple and birch are in the
largest proportion, and we should say
constitute nearly nine-tenths of the
entire hardwood growth.
The great difficulty to be overcome III
utilizing the hardwood from the upper
townships is that of getting it to the place
of manufacture. The present method
OF nOatlng lump uO"I Tic
seems to be a hazardous undertaking IN
the case Of the hardwood, as such large
proportion of it sinks and Is therefore
lost Yet we think the old saying Wv here
there's will there's way" would be
fulfilled should there be manufactures
established here that would demand the
growth or even offer a fair compensation
for the work of either muscle or brain in
solving the problem of getting the
growth to market through transporta-
tion by land or water.
1t is not my province in this article to
devise means of either transportation or
manufacture. Yet | say, God speed the
day when our hardwood can be gotten to
manufactures here or manufactures be
established within reach of our hardwood
growth.
In these days OF progression we may
well expect great changes.

cle!
She was an enthusiastic young wo-
man who uttered these yords and she
evidently meant them. There is SO
much eXhilaratiOn and pleasure In rid
ing a bicycle, that il is no wonder 1t IS
so popular.
But like every good thing it has its
drawbacks People who have ridden a
bicycle for any length of time are al
most always troubled at times with
pain in the back 1t is a fact which
admits of no dispute that the vibration
of the wheel causes, in nearly every
case, more or less kidney, liver or urin-
airy difficulties. Not that these trou-
bles are serious at the beginning, but
they are liable to become so If they con-
tinue. There is no more serious trou-
bic ia the world than kidney trouble,
whether in men or women. and there
is nothing more certain than that it
must be checked in time, or broken
health, shattered strength and untime-
ly death are sure TO follow.

troubles if the kidneys and urinary or
gans are only kept regulated. But, OF
course, there is the great difficulty.
Every physician knows that it is diff
cult to regulate these delicate organs,
and all physicians admit that there is
absolutely but one remedy for these
troubles. That remedy is Warmers
Safe Cure This great discovery is ac-
knowledged to be the only cure for
these difficulties, because it stimulates
gently the kidneys and all adjacent or
gans and causes them to continue in
perfect health. There need be no fear
of backache, peculiar pains, depressed
feelings, or any Of the thousand things
which indicate kidney difficulty, where
this great Safe Cure Is used continu-
ously and in time. So that bicycle rid
ers need not fear, but can ride to their
hearts content, providing only they are
careful, providing only they watch for
the approach of the first symptoms OF
kidney difficulty, and providing only
they check them in time.

SABULA, Iowa, Oct. s.-The singu
larly distressing illness among the
guests at the wedding of John Tap
law and Anna Gage, is still occupying
the attention Of the medical fraternity
of this and other cities, but so far no
physician has been able to correctly
diagnose the disease. Three deaths
have occurred and eighty persons are
confined to their beds, and several of
these are not expected to live.
The popularity of the disease is
causing great apprehension, and is at
tributable to the failure of the physi-
clans to successfully combat it. 1t is
similar to common forms of poisoning,
and its imperiousness to all antidotes
and ual remedies is puzzle. The
fact t most of the victims were not
stricken until three weeks after par
taking OF the wedding feast furnishes
another surprise to the physicians.

WnKEsBARRE, Pa, Oct. SHORTY
after o'clock yesterday afternoon a
terrific explosion of gas occurred in
the Dorence mine, operated by the
Lehigh Valley Coal company, which is
situated in the northern part of the
city. Eight men lost their lives.
Shortly before o'clock the engineer
corps decided to make a survey of a
portion of the old 4 bandoned work
ings known as the Baltimore section,
and which underlie the grounds of the
Wilkesbarre baseball club, one mile
distant from the main opening of
the mine. The party, which was in
charge of Fire Boss Daniel Reese, who
is an expert on mine gases, consisted
of William Jones, William Cahill and
Llewellyn Owens. Blanchard and
Miller had been left behind to finish
some work that had been started in
the morning. About twelve minutes
after the party hal left Miller and
Blanchard, the explosion occurred.
Botl Miller and Blanchard were
knocked down by its force. Flying
timbers also struck Miller, breaking
both his arms.
After being knocked down, Miller
and Blanchard remem bered nothing

have been instantly killed. When
Blanchard was found he was being
slowly roasted to death. The bodies
of the eight missing miners were re-
covered this morning. All were dead.
