Inside of Month.
The situation at the Pittston, Pa, shaft
has undergone no change. The rescuers
continue to work under great difficulties.
The squeeze is now general, and at the
foot Of the shaft the loud rumbling noise
of falling rock in different parts of the
mine can be heard. There was another
fall which drove the men back. Double
timbering is now being resorted to. 1t
is very slow and tedious work, and even
under the most favorable conditions the
workers could not hope to clear a gang

Poverty and Ill Health.

Ill health and sickness gre more COM
mon among the very poor than among
the well-to-do This is partly the effect
of inheritance, and partly the result OF
the unsanitary surroundings In which
the poor are compelled to exist.
1t is an unpleasant fact to contem-
plate that some of the poor whom we
call lazy good-for- -nothings" are really
Dersous of weak vitality, with cOnst1-
tutions predisposed before their birth
to feebleness or disease. Such persons
are poorly fitted to compete in the
struggle for existence" whether for
themselves of for their families.
Shiftlessness is often the result of a
weak will, begotten of weak bodily
constitution. \ young man, physically,
weak, walks many miles, perhaps, In,
search of employment. A situation is
obtained and arrangements are made
for work to begin the following MORN
ing. On arriving home degree of ex-i
haustion supervenes, which leads the
Young man to believe that he is physi-
callv unable to undertake the work.;
and the following day he appears be-
fore the doctor, instead of before his
employer.
Such Il youth never keeps position
for more than n few consecutive weeks.
Consistency of purpose never. by inner
itance or acquisition, becomes part OF
his character. Physical weakness thus
has it's share in begetting moral weak
ness.
That i'll health is not an insuperable
bar to success has been demonstrated
bv the lives of some of the greatest
men. DR.. Oliver Wendell Holmes. as
he himself testified, was never rugged;
vet he rose to emnence, both in his sci
ence and in his art. One of the studies
in which he attained distinguished sue
cess was that of temperate and regular
care of himself.
Unhealthful surroundings, poor food,
bad air and lack of cleanliness harbor
disease, and are themselves the cause
of disease.
Infancy and childhood suffer most
from such unsanitary conditions.
According to the common saying, pow
ertv .breeds disease" That it always
does so. or that it must do so, does not
of necessity follow. Cleanliness, good
air and wholesome food are possible,
even amid poverty. AS matter Of
fact. however, they are rarely found
there.
The important thing is to instruct the
young in the Importance of personal
hygiene, and to enforce the laws relat
ing to public health.-Youth's Compan4
ion.

Labor Is Offended.

There is such a thing as labor vote
in this country, and it cuts an import
ant figure in n Presidential election. 1t
is not vote to be offended openly and
deliberately, at any rate. Among the
persons who took Il prominent part in
the proceedings at st. Louis was Henry
C. Payne of Wisconsin. He was re-
elected National Committeeman from
his State, in accordance with the
wishes of Mark Hanna, so it was stat
ed in the newspaper dispatches at the
time. Now it is reported that Mr..
Hanna is very likely to give added evi-
dence of his approval of Mr.. Payne by
appointing him Il member OF the Ma
tional Executive Committee. Mr..
Payne is probably as Objectionable to
organized labor as any man in the
country. As manager of the Milwau-
kee Street Railway Company he fought
stubbornly to crush out organization
among his employees. refusing under al
circumstances to recognize the right of
those who worked for his company to
belong to a union. Comforting honor
and position on this man, who is Bit
ter enemy of unionism, Mr.. Hanna will
find to be poor way of making votes
for his candidate among workinSmen.

Cheering TO Democrats.

There is nothing in the nomination Of
Mckinley that should not cheer the,
hearts of Democrats. 1t was the Me-
Kinley idea and the Mckinley platform
that defeated the Republican party in

it to defeat in 1S96.-PeOria Herald.
Will Not Grow Upon the People.
1t is our best judgment that Mckin-
ley will not grow upon the people in
the fierce light of the campaign. His
election means another siege Of tariff
tinkeYing. and the people do not want
any more legislation on this subject for
some time.-Nashville American.

No Silver Tariff Wanted.

WASHINGTON, Dee 11.-Senator Tel
Ter, asked for his opinion of the prop
osition which it has been stated will
be incorporated in the new tariff bill
for duty on silver, replied: 1T is a
very foolish idea. If they think they
can catch the silver men by any such
soap as that they are mistaken. 1t
would only emphasize the claim of the
gold men that silver is mere com
modify. If duty of fifty cents per
ounce was placed on silver it would
not raise the price of silver n cent.
The price of silver is fixed abroad
where it is used. The only silver that
is imported into this country is from
Mexico, from which this country makes
profit in handling. That is all right
and there can be no objection to it.
The silver thus imported is shipped
out again. The price of silver is fixed
by the countries which use it for
money and in the arts We don't use
more than so, 900, 900 in the arts"
The hearings to be given by the
ways and means committee on the
tariff question promise to attract an
to Washington than usually gather
during a revision of the tariff. The
committee is already overwhelmed by
applications from representatives of
the various interests who are anxious
to present arguments for increasing
the rates. The Democratic members
of the committee intend to marshal
witnesses in rebuttnl to advocate the
continuance of the Wilson bill They
desire to have their side of the case in
cluded in the printed record of the
hearings. 1t will be practically irn-
possible for the committee to hear all
the applicants who want to present ar
guments in the limited time assigned
to the subject. The committee expects
that those who appear will have their
arguments PREPARED in writing, to be
placed on file and printed

NO GOVERNMENT ACTION
YET TAKEN.
UNCLE SANS POSITION.
The Department of Justice Looking Up
q Line of Action to Meet ANY Case
That May Be Officially Brought
Before 1.-THE Enlistment
Movements and the Law
Concerning Them.

WASHINGTON, Dec 21.-The depart-
ment of justice has not yet received
any official informhtion of the reported
enlistment of companies OF men in diff
ferent parts of the country with the
view of joining the insurgent forces in
Cuba, nor can it be authoritatively
stated just what course would be pur
sued by the government should these
enlistments be brought officially
to notice. The position taken
by the government, however, in
the Horsa case would seem to
govern these cases. In that case the con-
tentlon OF the government was that un-
der sections 52S2 and 52SS the enlistment
of men in this country for service in
Cuba. either in behalf of the Spaniard or
the insurgents. was high misdemeanor
punishable by a fine not exceeding
$1,000 and imprisonment not exceeding
three years. Not is it necessary for a
man actually to enlist, inasmuch as
the law inhibits citizens under,
the penalties named above from
enlisting or entering themselves, or
hiring or retaining another person to
enlist, or going beyond the limits of
jurisdiction of the United States with
intent to enlist as a soldier or marine
or seaman, etc. This act was held in
the Horsa case TO be sufficiently COM
prehensive to warrant the arrest and
punishment of the person offending.
and it is believed that should any of
the reported movements reach a point
where proof of the facts could be OBJ
tanned, the government would not hes
itate to take immediate action

action of the senate foreign relations
committee in agree ing to report Sena-

will be passed by congress over the
