The Peddlers.

EDITOR HERALD Il seen in your issue
yesterday letter signed by j. S. Man
dour, making "Plea for Peddlers." He
certainly makes some rash statements
First, He knows that there never were
$50 Arabian peddlers in town at one time.
Second The thousands Of dollars paid 10
railroad and express companies will stand
to be pared down somewhat heavy. Even
if it were so, the legitimate merchants
pay hundreds of dollars to the peddlers'
one for help, rents light, heat, teams,
advertising, freight, expres.age, etc.
Third, Instead of $50 Arabian peddlers'
most ofsthem citizens" " having left town
since "Dick" Amour commenced making
arrests, ETC., has one dozen of Arabian
peddlers left town Fourth, II there
were $50 Arabian peddlers in town, is il
not strange that Mr.. Mandour did not
come across one of them peddling and
arrest him, instead of only Hebrew
peddlers, whom he arrested ? Fifth, He
admits that the peddlers "hurt the dry
goods merchants" Now, any person who
has seen an Arabian peddler's box of
merchandise open and exposed for BUSH
ness, knows that they also hurt the book,
jewelry, hardware and notion merchants
When Mr.. Mandour replies to this, viii
he please tell the people how many of the
Arabian peddlers he supplies with goods
to peddle? He certainly paws "Dick"
Amour an unintentional compliments
when he says that Dick has rid the town
Of $50 Arabian peddlers alone. If the
illegal peddlers continue to leave the
town in such large numbers as Mr..
Mandour says, then it will not be long
until the legal peddler (the old soldier)
will have chance to earn living

THEIR ESCAPE MIRACULOUS
THE REAR PART OF A BUILDING THEY
WERE TEARING DOWN CRASHED

JOSeph Lehmler and Solomon Staufter
Suffered the Most From the
Accident, But Will Recover
in Few Days.

There was an accident at the corner Of
Centre and Market streets yesterday
afternoon BY which several men had a
miraculous escape from death. The men
were engaged in tearing down the two
story frame bpilding on the corner to
make room for G, E. Titman's new build
ings and were at work on the first floor
The rear part of ehe building was kept
erect by few scattering timbers. Sud
denly, and almost Without warning, il
lunged forward and Joseph Lehmler
Solomon Stauffer, William Lang and
William Thomas were buried under it
Other workmen went TO their relief and
quickly threw the debris aside Thomas
and Lang were practically uninjured
They suffered more from flight than any.
thing else, although the latter received a
painful blow on the jaw from a piece oi
timber. Stauffer was assisted to his
feet and walked to Gruhler's drug
store, and was taken home in John
Brailer's express wagon. Dr Stein at
tended him and found that no dangerous
injuries had been sustained. Stauffer's
back and shoulders were considerably
bruised but he will be all right after rest
for for few days. Lehmler suffered the
most from the accident, but he, too, will
recover from the effects in few days.
He is being attended by Dr. Hochlerner AT
first it was feared Lehmler had been
fatally injured. He was carried from the
place on couch to Mr. Titman's stable
and after being given rest for a few
minutes was taken home in Coslett's
wagon. He received painful contusions
on the hips, back and arms I,ehmler
says that had he been six inches closer to
the falling debris he would have been
fatally crushed by heavy beam.

Cruelty HOaxed.

Edwin D. Strouse, one of the Lost
Creek mining engineering corps, was
made the victim of cruel hoax yesterday
by his colleagues in the Lehigh Valley
Coal Company's Office at that place. Upon
the completion of the days work one of
the corps announced that message had
been received requesting that map be
sent to the Primrose colliery. Strouse
was deputized to make the delivery. He
went to Mshanoy City and then walked
two miles out TO the colliery, including a
long and lonely walk up mountain.
The map case was opened upon delivery
and found filed with gravel.

state.
The state military board has just
closed session Of routine business and
under the new law the adjutant-gep-
eral audits all bills at Portland. This
both the governor and secretary declare
would be a practice in conflict with all
law and custom. Many of the laws
carrying appropriations were lObbied
through by interested parties who thus
virtually become the auditors Of their
own accounts.
Several Of the state institutions have
readily yielded to Secretary Kincaids's
construction Of the Law that they are
not to draw out the state money in

must be audited toy the state officials

AMUSING THE QUEEN.
How Maids of Honor Are Selected and
Some of their Duties.

Maids Of honor are chosen by the queen
herself from among the daughters of peers
who if not themselves connected with the
royal household are personal friends of her
majesty. A letter is always sent to the
parents of the young lady requesting that
as personal favor to the queen she may he
permitted to attend at court As the post
ion is undeniable and the salary is e300 a
year, the request is invariably accepted,
and the newly chosen maid receives from
the lord chamberlain the command for her
first "wait"
The first thing brought to the maid of
honor is her badge, which is miniature
picture of the queen set in brllants and
hung from a ribbon. just before the
dinner hour the maid of honor in waiting
has to stand in the corridor outside the
queens private apartments. She carries a
bouquet, which on entering the dining
room she lays at the right hand of the
queens plate.
The maid of honor sits at dinner next
to the gentleman on the queens right.
This rule is, however, relaxed when royal
guests are present. After dinner unless
otherwise commanded, the maid of honor
retres to her own room, whence however,
she is frequently called to read, sing, play
the piano or take Il hand at cards.
As regards this last, the household have
always to be provided with freshly coined
handle money which has ever been in
circulaton.-New York ADVERTISER
