MISS GEORGIA WHITE, Local Editor
HER VALENTINE.

HER VALENTINE.
On sheet of satin paper,
Bordered round with turtle doves,
Arabella wrote a missive
To the dearest Of her loves.
She extolled his eyes so sparkling,
Raved about his auburn hair,
And opined that no one ever
Had more distinguished air.
Then with dainty fingers folded
This eifusion and essayed
To discover where the stamp-box
Had been cur ously mislaid.
Once the coast was clear, her brother
Slyly -neaked in all alone
And for hers, he substituted
An epistle OF his own.
So when the expectant Charlie
Seized his valentine, he read
This-which made his face the color
OF his rather sandy head
20 you sorrel-top! when calling
Won't You wear good big shade;
For the brilliance OF your topknot
Makes the parlor carpet fade"
Now, to one small boys amusement,
Two hearts beat as two, nor cease,
And two souls, both filled with anger,
Have as much as q thought apiece.

Rev. G. w. Morrow is to deliver his lee
ture, 'sLife Sketches" in Woodstock next
Monday evening.
The Vermont Union says, "Beedle's or
chestra is booked to appear in Orleans
county soon to give series of entertain
ments. The company is named after G. 9,
Beedle, once resident of Barton, and
we'll known as a musician and the leader
of Beedle's band. The manager is w. A.
harrington, an Albany boy, who has won
no small renown as musical artist, COM
poser and manager of troupes. Among
his best players Is Ed. 3. Bagley, born and
brought up in Craftsbury, and brother
of Ezra Bagley, who has won fame as
cornet player"
A very pleasant occasion was the recep-
ton recently rendered Mrs. A. J. Dutton
and her son, Clarence, at the Christian
church. Mrs. buttons ability to gain the
friendship of those with whom she comes
in contact was proven by the presence OF
a hundred and sixty people anxious to do
her honor on her sixtieth birthday. Mr.
A. A. Smith, in q happy speech, presented
Mrs. Dutton with handsome chair and
lamp, and a chair was also given her son.
There were, too, several smaller gifts and
an envelope containing quite sum OF
money. A poem, written for the occasion
elynd Gould.
Saturday morning, as Professor Trask
was leaving the Christian parsonage he
stepped upon the icy sidewalk in front of
the house with disastrous results. Mind
ed to maintain an upright position in So
ciety If possible, he struggled wildly to
regain his balance, but alas 1t is only the
wicked who can stand in slippery places,
and the professor fell, striking on his right
arm and dislocating his right shoulder.
AS he is some six feet four or five inches
tall, he had long ways to go before he
reached the ground and struck the earth
with considerable force-no enough to
knock the globe out of its orbit but suffi-
cient to infiict upon him several severe
bruises and Commissions besides his other
injury.

A VAIN SEARCH FOR MILLIONS.
The Venerable Miss seibeIs II eturns from
Europe Empty Handed.


BALTIMORE, March 16.-Among the 2SS
steerage passengers who landed at Balti-
more yesterday from the North German
Lloyd steamer Willehad at Locust Point
was Miss Cornelia Saibels, who returns to
America after hunting fortunes in Ger
many and England to which she believes
she is heir. Miss Seibes is "a years old,
and was born near Edge1eld Court House,
N. G.
Some time ago she read of the death Of
Mr.. Seibels in Eberfieldt, Germany, who
was said to have left $500, 600 900 to rela-
tives, some of whom lived in the United
States Eleven weeks ago Miss Seibels
left New York on a North German Lloyd
steamer with view depressing her claims.
Landing in Bremen she proceeded to Eber-
feldt, where she sought the services of a
lawyer. No one assisted her, and her per-
sistence even did not enlist enough infor-
nation to satisfy her as to the chance of
securing the Seibels fortune. Intending
to return to Germany later and make a
final effort in her own behalf Miss Seibels
decided to go to England and there get
legal assistance in obtaining some Of the
millions of the Temple estate which were
as she thought, only awaiting her pres
enoe and proofs before having them
handed to her. Her mother, she says, was
Marion Sarah Temple, daughter of Will
lam TeAple, from whose family great
fortune is said to be awaiting heirs.
Reaching London all alone she entered
the city by railroad, landing at Victoria
station. Afterward, she says, she was ar
rested, and no argument that she could
use would make the London justice before
whom she was taken believe that she was
an heiress to the millions in the Temple
estate. "phirty days in the workhouse," :"
said Miss Seibsls, was the justice meted
out to me. Icould not get lawyer to take
up my case, so after serving my sentence
l set my face toward Germany again.
where hoped l might have better luck"
Again going to Bremen, she says, she
found no one willing to assist her, and
finally decided to return to this country.

president could perfect other plans In re
gard to it, Mr.. Fish was strongly urged by
the president to remain through his term,
and assured that his course was not only
satisfactory to him, but gave satisfaction
and confidence to the country. These are
the words Of the diary ON the subject;
THE president repeated that he wished
70 thank me especially for two occasions.
They were, one, preventing the issuing,
last August and September of the procla-
nation of Cuban belligercncy which he
had signed, and which he wrote me q note
instructing me to sign (Which l did and
to issue (Which did not), and second, the

.UNCEASING FALL OF SNOW.
Good Sleighing, But AvenueS Of Trade
Are Blocked,
THE ELECTRIC RAILWAYS SUFFER
All Attempt to Reach the Terminus of the
Respective Lines in Town Prove Of
no Avail, But Cars Run to
and From the Town.

The storm keeps up with persistency that
is provoking and is causing inconvenience in
many quarters, but is hailed with delight by
those who want to get some sleighing before
the flower blooming season arrives. The fall
of snow is now sufficient to afford good
sleighing for several days if old Sol does not
beam too brightly in the interim, and sleigh
owners will no doubt reap harvest.
Thus far the only serious effects of the
storm have been felt by the electric railway
companies. Their traffic in town is almost
completely cut off. The Traction Company
succeeded in getting its cars as far as the
west end of Coal street yesterday, but did
not meet with much success to-day, the con-
tinual fall of snow giving the employees con-
slant trouble. The Lakeside Railway Com
pany made herculean efforts to keep its road
open to the Main street terminus yesterday
and succeeded for a few hours in the after
noon by running two cars at time and
having a force of men accompany the cars
to sweep and shovel whenever the tracks be-
came stalled by snow, but the tactics failed
to-day and the cars could not be forced
further west than the Bowers street crossing
Among the roadway incidents reported
was an accident that befell Joseph Bell and
Thomas Ryan, two young men of town, who
were out yesterday enjoying sleigh ride.
Their horse took fright on West Coal street
and ran up one of the dirt banks of the
Kohinoor colliery. Bell and Ryan were
tossed out of the sleigh but escaped injury.
The horse was found on the top of the dirt
bank, tired and painting and the sleigh was
in bad condition.
This morning farmer of the Catawissa
Valley named Fred. Laudig started up the
mountain, at the north end of Main street,
with load of manure large enough to cause
dozen teams distress He assembled but a
slight distance when one of the horses fell
heavily and was unable to get up or stand
when several men helped it up The animal
recovered after rest and after considerable
hard work the team got its load up the
mountain.
EX-High Constable Anthony Flynn is
among the sufferers from the storm. While
walking along Jardin street Saturday night
he slipped on hardened piece of snow and
in the fall he strained the sinews of his leg
The injury is more serious in view of the
fact that Mr.. Flynn is totally disabled, his
other leg being artificial

The st. Clair branch of the Pottsvillc
Electric Railway has been abandoned, and
beginning with to-day no more cars will run
to that town, unless satisfactory arrange
ments can be made, The Pottsville and
Tamaqua Railway Company owns the road
between st. Clair and Port Carbon, and they
lease it to the Schuylkill Electric Railway
Company, at rental of $500 per year.
The latter object to paying that figure, and
unless the two companies come to an agree
ment no more cars will run to St. Clair.
