sensible thing in refusing to send $1,000
to Harrisburg to fight the Quay county
bill.
The Vulcan Iron Works, late the Carter
& Allen shops of Tamaqua, have resumed

Major Flnney's latest railway deal, as
published in last evenings HERALD,
caused considerable comment among his
friends and admirers in town today.
If Tamaqua is to enjoy electric railway
privileges the Council of that town will
have to grant the right of way to the
Tamaqua & Lansford, the only company
that has a legal standing, So says the
Courier of that place.
Barnesville wants to be a rival Of
Lakeside. The Mahanoy City Daily

dam in that vicinity, and then improve
the place by building large summer
hotel, toboggan slide raise and enlarge
the dam so as to make it suitable for
boating, etc.

Arrangements for the Charity Con-
cert to be Held in FerguSOn'S
Theatre This Evening.
PEOPLE TO TAKE PART in IT
PRECAUTION TAKEN FOR A PROPER
DISTRIBUTION OF THE FUNDS
THAT WILL BE REALIZED.
A Relief Committee Will Issue Orders
for Relief on Certificates Issued
by the Committees OF the
Parishes.

Tonight the much talked of charity
concert will be held in Ferguson's theatre
and it is expected the affair will be well
attended, as the advance sale of tickets
is large. The object of the concert is to
raise funds for the relief of the deserving
poor of the town and, as the cold weather
and hard times are still with us, the COM
mittee will no doubt find many places
where the funds can be placed with good
results.
There have been number of inquiries
as to who will be responsible for proper
distribution of the money that will he
realized on the concert and the HERALD
is authorized TO state that the general
committee has appointed a subcommittee,
or relief committee, that will meet twice
week at the residence of Superintendent
j. J. Bradigan to issue orders to such ap
plicants as may be found worthy of relief
This committee is composed of the fol-
lowing gentlemen DIR. D. w. Strauby
president; p. j. Gaughan, secretary !;
Philip Bierman, Charles RadMewicz and
c. E. Titman. They will meet twice a
week while the funds last and issue
orders for food, clothing and footwear, as
the condition of the applicants may
demand and the orders will be filled by
merchants to be designated by the COM
mittee upon presentation by those receiv
ing them. In no case will cash be given
so that there will be no possibility of the
funds being turned from the channel for
which they are intended, at least not
while the commlJtee can exercise
any control, and all merchants are
cautioned not to give any cash on
orders. This precaution is taken as an
offset to people who may secure orders
for food, or clothing, or both, and then
I try to sell them in order to secure money
| Tor drink. 1t is hoped all the merchants
will cooperate with the committee in
this connection and not be induced to
cash any order by an offer of sale at less
than the face value.
The committee has also taken all pre-
cautions possible to see that only the
worthy poor of the town are relieved and
to that end has requested each church il
the town to have parish committee OF
two, or more, members appointed tC
certify to the worthiness of applicant
for relief. Each applicant will be required
to present a certificate from the parlsl
committee before an order for relief cal
be secured. These certificates will Sc
forth the needs of the applicants.
Prof. F. Zeitz will be conductor Of tn
concert, which will include members b!
St. Georges Cornet Band, Misses Yos
and Wasley, Miss Eva Brewer, The Ladies
Singing Club, Mrs. G. w. Wasley, Mis-
Mile Schmidt, Miss Helen Price ant
Miss Sallie Wasley. The band will rende
number of selections and the balance o
the program will consist of vocal and in
strumental solos and DUETS.

Statement.

In some unexplainable manner a per-
sonal to the effect that Mrs. Oscar Yost
had given birth to son creeped into the
HERALD's personal column yesterday.
The best explanation at hand is that Mrs.
Yost's name was confounded with that of
Mrs. Oscar Keller, who recently gave
birth to fine boy.
