PASTOR RESPONSIBLE.
Michigan Divine Charged with Inaugur-
ating the Dancing Fever.

Ludington, Mich. March Rev. w.
]. Laufman, who took radical ground in
favor of dismSsing school teachers
who dance. and shook society as it has
not been shaken before, recently had
a troupe of Violinists come here and
give an exhibition in his church. They
played dance tunes innumerable and
got all the young people in the church
to patting their feet and swaying their
bodies in harmony with the music.
The minister himself 1t Is said, en-
Enthusiastically applauded the selections.
The deaCons now claim that the dane
ing that has been so widely INDUCED in
was the direct outgrowth and result of
this occasion. that the tunes We're al
together too quick and devilish in char
acter for use in a Methodist church.

FINED FOR HIS CRUELTY.
Rich Michigan Man Permits Eighty Sheep
to Starvc to Death.

Adrian, Mich. March 2.-Charles
Daniels. Cambridge farmer of 10
years, allowed eighty sheep to starve
to death, because the price of hay was
so high and that of sheen so low he
couldn't afford to keep them. Their
carcasses We're found lying about the
premises. The doorless entrances of
three dila aodated barns were barricad-
ed. so the poor animals could get no
shelter, while within stood horses and
cows shivering from could draughts.
Daniels pleaded guilty and was fined
$39. Although he is worth $4,000. he
lives in d ramshackIe house, through
whose roof rain pours in torrents It
is necessary to stretch canoples over
the beds.

The Lehigh Valley Coal company is
experimenting with electricity at Malt
by colliery to haul mine cars. 1t is eX-
pected that before long the mules will
be a thing of the past in anthracite
mines. The experiment of electricity
for the surface workings has succeed
ed so well that most of the conservative
operators think /. will work equally
well inside. The Lehigh Valley COM
pany has built a big fire-proof boiler
house at the Maltby colliery. and in this
they will put an immense dynamo,
thence conducting the power wires in
to the mines through two 12-inch bore
holes to the big pumps below.
Il H Il
Alderman Ford of Wilkes Barre. ac-
cordng to the Leader. has leased $50
acres of coal land in Schuylkill county
and a company is being organized to de-
velop the tract. which is located about
seven miles from Pottsvilie. On the
tract there Is an average of 100 feet of
coal in eight veins and it is estimated
to contain 100000 tons. The lease is
perpetual or until all the coal is mined.
The coal is within easy reach of the
Pennsylvania, Lehigh Valley and Phil
adelphia and Reading railroads. The
Lehigh Valley Coal company is operat-
ing close by with much success. OPP
erations will begin this coming summer.
The veins are all above water level
and can be reached by slopes or drifts
into the mountain side.
