A Fmckville correspondent says that the
shipments Of anthracite coal via Mahanoy
Plane, has proved more satisfactory than was
anticipated and arrangements are being
made, by the erection of additional offices,
to accommodate the extra clerical force
necessary to keep the trade going that way.
Gordon will be used only when an accident
occurs there, or the trade is heavy enough to
justify the expense of operating Gordon
planes.

RUNAWAY ACCIDENT.
A Club Stables Horse Takes No
ton to Run.


At about $50 o'clock yesterday even
ing Puhffl, driver of one of the Club
Stables hacks, drove into the stables
through the entrance next to Loves
new building for the purpose of getting
his lights.
He left his horse standing and walk
ed over to the place where the lights
are kept. As he did this the animal
became frightened at something and
started off, running into and breaking
one of the posts supporting the rear
shed.
This was carried along with the now
thoroughly frightened horse. After
reaching Fort street, the animal turned
up and ran into the sidewalk outside
of Frank Gertz's store, capsizing the
hack. The horse was caught and was
found to be uninjured with the eX-
ception of a bruise on one leg. The
top of the hack was a complete wreck.

Horrors of MODERN Prisons.

The official belief is that there is lit
tie or no prison-made insanity. Pris-
on doctors are keen. alive to the
possibility of shamming, and they
hesitate to admit that there is any flaw
i'll the system for the administration
of which they are SO largely response
BILE. Still the fact remains that the
ratio OF insanity in prisons has exact
ly doubled since 1877.
The admitted general increase OF
insanity is not sufficient to account
for this startling fact. Prison disci-
pline is now more mechanical, and
therefore more depressing. Its very
improvements in this respect "take
the heart out OF man." It is proba-
Bile that prisoners were far happier is
the old unreformed prisons, when they
herded together and had companion
ship of kind.
An expert witness who bad passed
four and twenty years in Jail told the
Prison Committee some startling things
from the convict's point of view. The
rules, he said, are too minute for hu-
man observance, and some minds are
totally unable to bear the strain of
them. A man may be reported for
knocking something over In his cell,
though it may be by pure accident.
The name for this offence is "uuneoes-
sary noise" AS the poor wretchos
walk their weary round in the exercise
yard, one may fall out of step and
thus throw the others out. The first
offender or the last-any one, in fact,
on whom the warder's eye happens to
fall-is liable to punishment for this
mischance.
In this way the convict gradually
acquires an expression that never
leaves him-the round-the-corner
glance of being who breads tyrant
on the pounoe. We want q new How.

it is said to be by those who have best

The White House Doll House.

"The doll play house has long been
without an occupant" remarked one
of the attaches of the Executive
Mansion, in speaking of the doll house
which has been stored under the east
ern portico of the White House for q
number OF years. "This play house
was given to Nellie Arthur, and was
much used by her and her girl friends.
IT was nicely furnished. One of the
two rooms was furnished as kitchen
and dining room. and the other as a
combination sitting room and parlor.
Nellie Arthur, when she first came to
the White House, was of the doll age,
but before she was here long she grew
out of it, and the doll house was de-
serted. 1t has had no occupant since.
and is not likely to have any for some
time.
"Only two children can get in the
house at the same time. There have
been number of applicants for the
house, but every one has hesitated to
do anything about it. OF course,
Nellie Arthur or any one authorized
by her could get the house by simply
sending for it, for it is her private
property, and though it has been stored
under the east portico, the Govern
ment has no control over it. Nellie
Arthur has children of her own now,
and she may send for it some day for
them. For the children, and especially
the girls of doll age, it is the most in
teresting thing about the White
House. Washington Star.

Astor,s s5,OOO,OOO Hotel.

William Waldorf Astor has $5,000,-
900 invested in the Waldorf Hotel,
and has never been under it's roof but
once, only to visit friend who hap.
pened to be staying there. He drove
up to tho lad es' entrance, walked
through the hall about fifty feet to an
elevator, got out ct the fifth floor,
went to Mr.. Kissam's room, remained
half ON hour or more, rode down the
elevator, walked to his carriage with.
out looking to the right hand or the
left, and drove away.
He has been in New York several
times since his hotel was completed,
but this is the only time he has ever
entered the doors. Whether his in
difference is freak or an affection no
one seems to know. The managers OF
his business, who are old family
friends and occupied similar rela.
tion with his father, submitted to him
the plans of architecture before con.
struction was begun and they were
approved by him, and he, of course,
advised as to all that relates to the
property. But he never goes there.
A friend suggests that his popularity
may perhaps arise from the fact that
his late wife took nm active part in
planning and particularly in selecting
the decorations of the house, but one
would suppose that would increase his
interest in it.
A special reason for Mr.. Astor to
feel an attachment for the Waldorf is
found on the first floor, where the
dining room of his grandfather is
exactly reproduced. When the old
mansion was torn down to make way
for the hotel the architects carefully
removed the decorations from the
walls of tho original dining room, the
fashioned marquetry floor was taker
up, the mantel, sideboards. window
frames and doors, the fireplace, chan
deliers, and, in fact, oil the fiuishings,
and furnishings, which are OF black
walnut, handsomely carved, were
slowed away, and then reset in what
is known as the Astor memorial room.

ity. She was caught in coal mine,
was brought up in "tommy bag" to
the surface, and handed over to me:
thus commenced an acquaintance.
which soon ripened into intimacy, and
which was only terminated by her
death. There was no doubt about
her song; pretty, bird-like warble,
rising and falling alternately, and of
sufficient power to carry from tho top
to the bottom OF the house when all
was quiet. In appearance she was
Just an ordinary house mouse, With
the usual well-groomed coat, the usual
cascade of whiskers, the usual beady
black eyes, and an elegant tapering
tail, like the rest of her tribe. It was
her song alone which singled her out
from the dumb millions of her fellows,
and this song she poured out almost
without intermissicn during her wax
ing hours. The speculations OF the
learned have been exercised over this
matter, and some have thought that
bronchitis, by narrowing the air pas
sages, produces noisy wheeling.
which enthusiastic admirers have dig
nifed as song. Others, with greater
probability, have suggested that every
mouse is singing mouse, but that on
account of the dullness of our ears we
only hear the bass.voiced vocalists,
while the shriller melodies of the great
majority are unnoticed. Every one
knows that the squeak of bat is not
heard by every one, and that one
party in conversation on a country
walk may be almost deafened by a
chorus OF bats while the other may
hear nothing of the noise. Certain it
is that dissection reveals nothing abb
normal in the vocal apparatus OF the
singing mouse, and doubtless q very
slight difference in the quality of the
vocal cords would result in a mouse
with voice sufficiently bass to bring
the sound within the compass OF our
learipg powers.-St. James's Gazette.
