THE BEGINNING.

Love! II began with a glance.
Grew with the growing of flowers,
Smiled in a drcamful trance,
Rocked not the passage of hours.
Our passion s flood rose ever.
Flowing for her and me.
Till the brook became Il river,
And the river became Il sea.
Grief. 1t began with Il word.
Grew with the winds that raved
A prayer for pardon unheard.
Pardon in turn uncraved:
The bridge SO easy bO sever.
The stream So swift to be free
Till the brook became river.
And the river became Il sea.
Life! 1t began with sigh,
Grew with the leaves that are dead ;
It's pleasures with wings to fly,
Its sorrows with wings of lead.
And rest remaincth never
For the wcarier years TO be,
Till the brook shall become river,
And the river become sea.

There is a considerable risk in.
CURED in shooting vicious horses,
both to the blacksmith and to the
horse itself. TO remove this risk al
together an Australian has invented
sort of wooden cage, the sides and
top of which are padded. The horse
is led in, the door is fastened, and
the cage is then turned completely
upside down, the animal resting on
it's back with it's feet up.

RATHER BE A "poRKIs Bird"
Thrilling ETr~~tcncc OF Young Lady q


Thrilling EHr~~tcncc Of n Young Lady ~
Church Entertainment.
Even fine singers do not always
give that clear enunoiation to words
which Is necessary if they would
have a listener unaoquainted with
the text discover tho sentiment con-
tanned therein.
On recent evening ut one of the
large Presbyterian churches in this
city specially attractive service
was held. 1t had been widely al.
vertised, and every seat was filled.
In one of the forward pews sat a
young person who eagerly waited
for proceedings to commence.
The opening mum Der on the pro-
gramme was voluntary beginning:
"A day in thy courts is better than
a thousand. had rather be a door
keeper in the house of my God than
to dwell i'll the tents of wickednesS. 1"
But the young person hadn't a pro
gramme, and she didn't know.
A woman's beautiful voice then
rang out clear and strong, and the
young person taxed her ears to catch
the words. AT first they eluded hor
exasperatingly, but by patience and
close attention she finally grasped
tho situation. The singer consider
ed Il day in the courts of the Lord
h ~ fhn,,.n,,I Oh
where. So far, good. But the next
sentence staggered the young per
son. The singer trilled forth that
she had rather be a "dorkie bird" in
the house of her God than to OCCUPY
an elevated position in a less right
eous place.
The young person pondered. Since
her early infancy she had been fec
on verses and chapters from the BIZ
BILE, but somehow she oouldn' t seem
to remember any reference to
"dorkie bird" She must be mis-
taken in the word, she thought, and
settled herself to listen to tho tenor,
who was now warbling tho sweet
melody. Surely he would sing the
words plainly. But no. The rendi-
ton was as before-"dorkie bird"
The contralto and bass made no
change i'll the version, but sang it IA
the soprano and tenor had done.
The young persons mind was per-
turbed. She could not fix heI
thoughts on the prayer which fol.
lowed, but bowed her head and
meditated on the various Biblical
combinations. No, she could not re-
call the least reference to "dorkie
bird, " but if the choir sung about it
surely there must DO such thing. |
She wondered if it were anything
like an English sparrow. Evidently
it was "a humble member of the
feathery tribe, for it was used in an
unimportant connection.
During II subsequent vocal num-
Der she leaned toward her escort.
What is dorkie bird?" she whis-
pered softly.
"A WHAT" he inquired.
"A dorkie bird?"
He turned on her IL pair of inter-
ested eyes. "A what?" no asked
again.
"Oh, never mind" sho whispered
nervously. Its nothing. They
are going to pray"
TO the exclusion of all else that
idea of the unusual bird occupied
hor attention during the remainder
of tho service. When she reached
home, sho rushed to her room and
seized her Billie. After an arduous
search sho found the place and read:
"A day i'll thy courts is better than
thousand. had rather be door

HISTORY OF THE TWIN SHAFT.
Operated by Newton Coal Company
for Seven Years.

Operated by Newton Coal Company
for Seven Years.
The Twin shaft has been in operation
many years. 1t was sunk by the Pitts
ton and Elmira Coal company, and af-
ter short period 1t passed to the con-
troll Of the Butler Coal company. BY
this company 1t was sold to F. C. Din
inny, Of Elmira, and was purchased
about seven years ago by the Newton
Coal company, the present owners, the
officers Of which are as follows: Presi-
dent, Frank T. Patterson, Of Philadel-
phia; secretary, E. L. Fuller, Of Scran-
ton; treasurer. William Hill, Of Phila-
delphia; general manager, John B. Law,
Of Pittston.
The shaft was sunk to the sixth vein
where the men are entombed. seventeen
years ago. Michael Langan. the super
intendent. who is among the men now
In the mine, had charge Of one shift Of
the sinkers, and Patrolman Charles A.
Perry, Of this city, had charge Of the
other shift. The only veins which have
been in operation Of recent years are
the fifth and sixth. The shaft Is 425 feet
deep and 1,50O tons OF coal q day were
being mined. 1t employs 1,lOO men.
The coal Is taken from the head
house. about eighty rods to breaker,
which also prepares the coal from Ra-
vine and Parsonage street openings.
Four years ago the Twin shaft was
visited one Sunday evening by a fire
which burned the headhouse, engine
house and boiler room. No one was in
jured at the time.

fall, and 1t might take week. AZ
an experiment work has been COM
menced on a gangway to be driven
through a pillar so feet thick from the
Clear Spring mine on the west side Of
the SusQuehanna river to the Twin
shaft workings. 1t Is estimated that
this can be dug in IS hours and that 1t
will bring the rescuers to point direct
ly behind the fall where the men are
supposed to be. After this opening Is
driven, then work can be done from
both ends.
Mr.. Mcdonald was not at all SAN
guine of recovering any Of the men
alive and did not seem to think that
they would be reached within several
days at the earliest AS to the re-
sponsibility for the accident he was not
prepared to make any statement until
he had made an investigation Of all the
circumstances connected with the ter
rible event. He was confining himself
% far as possible to fastening the
work Of recovering the men dead or
alive and seeing that the relief work Is
carried on in way that will insure the
safety of the fearless men who are en-
gagged In II.

MINE INSPECTORS STATEMENT.
Mr.. Mcdonald Has Small Hopes of
Rescuing the Men Alive.

Mine Inspector Hugh Mcdonald, of
that district, Is In general charge Of
the rescue work, and at o'clock last
night in conversation with a Tribune
reporter he said that the first thing
done would be to secure the foot Of the
shaft and form a place Of safety as a
retreat for the workers in case Of
further settling After that they will
move forward as rapidly as possible
to the edge Of the fall. At midnight
the region around the foot Of the shaft
was thoroughly braced and timbered
and the workers started in along the
gangway to secure that.
The fall where the entombed men
were working Is $500 feet from the
foot of the shaft. But two other falls
have come since then and have cut off
the distance between the men and the
foot of the shaft about 700 feet. Just
how long 1t will take them to get to
the edge Of the outer fall Is a question
which depends altogether on the char
acter of the roof met with as they pro-
ceeed. The terrific shock has loosened
the roof and the pillars and the pro-
gress will therefore be slow and at
tended with difficulty.
Inspector Mcdonald said It might
take only q day to get in to the iirst

Went Out for Pail Of Water Just
Before the Fail.
Frank Sheridan. the water boy, says
that In his opinion there were about
eighty men in the mines. They were
coming In at different times after mid
night in squads of two or more and on
his last trip out for water he passed a
gang of foreigners, twenty-six in num-
ber. going in. When he was returning
with the water the fall occurred. SO 1t
Is likely that this last gang had just
about gotten to work when death came
to them.
Sheridan says he was knocked down
by the force of the rushing air and
bowled along for some distance. how
far, he knows not. AS soon as he could
pick himself up he ran to the foot Of
the shaft and got to the surface. He
was the first, however. to offer to go
down again to guide the rescuers and
worked with them until completely ex-
hausted.
He went home about II o'clock In
the morning but returned at five in the
afternoon and wanted to assist in the
rescue Notwithstanding his aching
bones.

OF late years increased attention has

to dairy interests, encouraging the dairy
associations throughout the country, and
passing strict sanitary laws regulating
the manufacture Of cheese and butter.
No Rdulterations can be used, and the
importation, manufacture and sale Of
oleomargarine and other similar sub
stances are prohibited. Though the
quantity of butter exported decreased
from 105OO0OO pounds in 1868 to $780,
