Better Times for Uentralia.

There is general resumption of
confidence, if nothing else, at Cen
tralia, and everyone is living in hopes
of the return of better days in the very
near future. The people have unlim-
tied confidence in the Lehigh Valley
Coal Company as far as its relation to
Centralia is concerned, and the en-
ployees have the best words in its be-
half, and especially as regards the
gentlemen who supervise the affairs OF
the company there. The carpenters
are working day and night on the Cen
tralia breaker, which is to be the
mainstay ofthe town. In addition the
work Of sinking a new shaft into the
at one time abandoned Continental
colliery to reclaim rich deposit OF
coal is rapidly progressing. 1t is es'
timated that the resumption OF work
at these two collieries will give EN-
ployment to nearly 5000 men anc
boys, mostly residents of Centralla and
outlying territory, and will give the
town a boom such as it has never ex-
perienced in the past. May it be

The strike situation in and around

following, which we take from Tues
days Phila. inquirer, reaching a
crisis. 1t says:
The arrival IN this city to-day of
Sheriff Martin, of Luzerne, Setter, of
Carbon, and Scott, of Schuylkill, has
put new phase on the strike situa-
ZION and the crisis now appears to be
close at hand. The Sherlffs Of the
three counties held conferences with
the coal companies representatives
and decided to take determined
stand.
Each Sheriff issued a proclamation
calling on all good citizens to aid in
suppressing disorder and all unlawful
assemblages. The Sherlffs have al
ready large number of deputies
commissioned and they expect to
have the law upheld. Tonight four
teen cases of Winchester rifles were
unloaded at the Wyoming street de-
pot, consigned to the coal companies.
There are stacks OF guns and ammu-
milton in the different offices and
things in general have taken on de-
cidedly business like appearance.
The strikers in the Honey Brook
district held a big demonstration to-
day, parading through the south side
towns. After the parade they held a
meeting and decided to start on the
march tomorrow morning at 6 o'clock
Such move must lead to a clash

On Sunday, September 10Th, the
new M. E. Church will be dedicated.
This building has cost nearly 500,
and debt still remains to be pro-
vided for. This church property is a
credit and benefit to the entire COM
munity, regardless of creeds and sects,
and the raising OF money to liquidate
the indebtedness is most worthy OBJ
ject that should enlist the interest and
cooperation of all. An effort will be
made on the day of dedication to
secure large sum toward this end,
and contributions will be acceptable
whether the givers are connected with
the congregation or not. Money
given to this purpose is not merely q
gift to the Methodists it is for the
general good of the whole town.

The Clearfeld county commission
ers has offered 5000 reward tor the
apprehension and conviction of three
murderers. The men wanted are

whose conviction $500 is offered; for
the unknown man who killed John
OGrady, $500 is offered; and for
Charles Brown, who killed Grant
Reeder, 5000 is offered. These mur-
ders were committed in around Dubois

A decision OF the Supreme Court
says that every person who crosses a
railroad at grade, "must stop, look
and listen," and that if the track is
enveloped in smoke, must wait until
1t clears away. This places all the
responsibility for accidents on the
persons crossing the track. What is
now needed is decision requiring
railroad companies to erect gates at
grade crossings and keep watchman
there to manipulate them. Why not
divide the precautionary requirements
about evenly.

BASE BALL.

After losing six straight games last
week, the Blue Jays surprised every
one, themselves included by winning
a game from the Shamokin club. But
they didn't know it till some one told
them, at least, one of the nine, was
heard to ask an outsider in the eighth
inning what the score was, and when
told that it stood II to 9 in our favor,
he nearly tainted. The game was won
by Kid Hallman's fine work with the
stick, he having three hits, two of
which were home runs. Smith pitch
ed good ball for the locals, but the
support accorded him was such as to
dishearten any pitcher. Score.

All that Paderewski has to do to
get himself talked about from one end
of the world to the other is to drop in
at a barber's and have his hair cut.
The news leaps over thousand wires
and sets off thousand journalistic
squibs. Not even Samson's historic
hair cut was so much talked of at the
time; though, of course, the world
was smaller in Delilah's day, and pro-
badly there was less foolishness IN it
than there is now.
