Abe Stroh, of town, on Tuesday of

on his famous grate-bar and shaker
Mr.. Stroh has made wonderful success
of his invention since he first introduced
it to the attention of users of steam, and
his latest Improvement, which will make
the grate-bar moro valuable, shows that
the old gentlemen's head still contains
many original and profitable ideas.

DEPUTIES CANNOT BE ARRESTED.

BY orders of General Goblin the
deputies who committed murder at
Lattimcr on Friday are secure from ar
rest until the militia leaves. He has
prevented the warrants from being
served by the constables, basing his
action on some decision of Judge Pax
son. Many OF the deputies have placed
themselves inside the military lines for
protection, others have patrols of SOL
diers guarding them in their homes and
the remainder of the gang has decamp-
ed. Gobin's action. is severely denounc-
ed, but in order to save the community
from conflict with the militia the civil
authorities are biding their time
The feeling against the deputies has
not abated any yet and the determin-
alton to prosecute them grows stronger
every day. The local men who went out
as deputies, but had no hand in the
Lattmer affair, are also feeling the dis
grace they have brought upon them
selves. Respectable people shun them
at every turn and even the small boys
boot them on the streets.

Monday was a day of funerals. -Four
of the victims had been buried the pre-
vious day and 1t was thought the crowds
were large, but Mondays outpouring
from every town and hamlet for miles
around made the streets of Hazleton
almost mpassable. Twelve were buried
that morning and the corpses were fol-
lowed to the different churches by thou
ands Of people. Three were buried from
st. Peters Greek Catholic church and
nine from st. Stanislaus' Polish church.
On Tuesday another was buried from
McAdoo Polish church. All the Poles
were buried in one plot and monument
is to be erected over them to tell of the
massacre.
At the request of General Goblin, the
saloons of the city were ordered closed
by Mayor Altmiller. No disturbance
took place, however, and there were no
demonstrations made by the friends of
the murdered, other than peacefully fol-
lowing the martyrs to their last resting
places,

Il took the Milnesville car to 90 back
to Hazleton. This took me to Lattimer.
At the junction the deputies got on our
car and also crowded another special
car Hess seemed to be leading the men.
He showed them how to use the arms
and explained the mechanism of the
guns while the car was waiting. When
we got started the talk was all about
shooting, and each man seemed to be
eager, especially Hess.
when we got to the point where the
strikers were seen we were about twelve
feet higher and they were in II clearing.
1t was here | expected trouble, as some
one said: Let's fire into them now.
The car passed on until we got to Latti-
mer, whore the deputies got off. Sheriff
Martin was not within fifteen feet Of his
men at any time after he left the ear.
sit was evident from the position of
the Deputies that they intended to fire
and the motorman of our car halted for
protection. The strikers came along,
with the American flag flying from
rough hewn staff, and halted about fifty
feet from the armed deputies, who had
their guns in their hands. Martin talk
ed about thirty seconds and then stepped
back.
1.-The firing was like the effect pro-
duced by setting off u bunch of fire
crackers. Hess commanded the firing
and gave orders until it ceased. He is
the man who seemed to be in authority.
The tcrror-strickon men passed our car
and many dropped right near it. 1t
want to witness it again"
YES" he continued, Hess was the
man who first said fire."
PULLIC SENTIMENT.
The people of the region have expert
onced no change Of feeling regarding
the massacre. 1t is still looked upon as
a cold blooded murder and the first ex-
pressions of sentiment are not likely to
be retracted. concerted and vigorous
attempt is being made since the early
part of the week by the emissarics of
the coal corporations to smooth over the
excitement and to induce the public to
view the killing of the men as something
of no special Importance, since all were
foreigners. Another ruse, ,omanating from
the same source, and adroitly worked, is
to inject a religious and nationality issue
into the matter at this time, with the in
tention of arraying the various elements
Of the region against one another and
thereby break the unanimity that now
exists among all workingmen.
Both of these schemes are being push
ed wherever it is thought they can be
used to advantage. To the credit of the
community it can be said that so far the
plans to whitewash the murder and to
stir up religious feeling on the subject
have been gnominious failures, and in
several instances the agents who are
going about dropping the poison have
been rebukcd with scant courtesy. The
contemplate system of espionage which
is in vogue in this region prevents those
who are under obligations to the coal
corporations for their living from freely
expressing themselves. The spies, since
the trouble began, are sneaking about
from group to group, picking up what
they can and duly reporting the same to
headquarters.

Gradually the mystery which surround

From the remotest antiquity there
have always been equilibrists, many of
whom were extraordinarily daring and
Bkillful, and have astounded the spec
tators by their deeds Of prowess. His
tory tells us that in 1885, upon the en-
trance of Isabel of Bavaria into Paris,
a Genoese allowed himself to slide,
singing, from the tops of the towers of
Notre Dame to the Pont de Change,
over which the queen passed and en-
tered through an opening in the blue
taffeta sown with golden heur de lis,
with which the bridge was covered.
After having placed crown on young
1sabel's head, the equilibrist continued
his aerial journey. When it was nearly
night, the Genoese assembled to the tow
ers carrying lighted torch in each
hand, which must have caused singu-
lar appearance from a distance and

noticeable. They are constantly look
ing for the foods in which they desire
to lay their eggs, in order that their
young may have plenty to eat, and eter-
nal vigilance is the prices OF safety
from their depredatlons. Even so, the
housekeeper cannot be sure that the
cornmeal, the rice and the -four bought
at the grocer's is not already infestedi
in fact, II is very likely to be 80, and
only quick use will prevent the hatch
ing Of the eggs. On his part the grocer
has no guaranty that the cereals and
other stuff which he buys have not be-
come infested at the mills, and the
miller has no insurance against the In
festatlon of the grain before It reaches
him, even while It is rlpening In the
fields. Not long ago vessel arrived at
San Francisco from Calcutta with a
cargo Of rice. When the matches were
taken off for the purpose Of unloading
winged insects in clouds emerged; they
were grain moths and the rice was
found to be literally alive with their
larvae. OF such moths there are many
kinds, the worst of them all being the
angoumois moth, which gets its name
from province Of France, where 1t
appeared in 1876. It looks very much
like an ordinary clothes moth. In this
country 1t is vulgarly known as the
"ily weevll," having been introduced In
North Carolina and Virginia as early
as 1928. Thence 1t spread all over the
south, where 1t does vast damage. 1t
attacks grain In the field, as well as In
the bin, infesting all the cereals. In six
months grain infested by 1t loses 40 per
cent in weight and 75 per cent OF
starchy matter. The moth deposits he's
eggs in standing grain and In the bin
the minute grubs Matched from them
feeding on the starch of the kernels,
into which they burrow. On attaining
maturity the little caterpillar spins
within the kernel silken cocoon, the
moth emerging a few days later. Tht
dreaded "rice weevi" is derived from
India, whence 1t has been diffused by
commerce until now 1t is established
in most of the grain-growing countries
Of the world. 1t occurs in every state
in the union and occasionally inVades
Canada and Alaska. 1t is small snout
beetle, closely resembling the granary

purposes, says a Washington corre-
spondent of the Boston Transcript.
Each colony, representing a single spe-
cies, is kept in a good-slEed glass jar or
else In wooden box and Is supplied
with the food which 1t likes best. One
Jar, for example, contains two ears OF
corn, and every individual grain on
these ears is occupied by one or two
unpleasant-looking little worms. Other
receptacles are partly filled with oats,
wheat, rice and various dietary prepa-
rations, such as housewives commonly
keep on the pantry shelves. They are
simply alive with crawling depredators,
which are busily engaged in feeding
and breeding. Indeed, the conditions
are the same as those frequently repro
duced most disgustingly in the barrels
and boxes Of the household commits
sariat. The appearance of such pests
in cereals and other stored foods is
often 80 mysterious and their propaga-
ton is so enormously rapid that the no
ton that they are generated spontane-
ously is still widely entertained. Not
very many years ago the theory that
certain small animals under suitable
conditions might be created literally
out Of nothing, as in manure or in de-
composing food substances, was in
dorsed by science Now, however, it
is known that an egg must be laid by

itators, especially Of Warner, who has
dared not only on wire to cross the
cataract of Niagara, but has Just per-
formed the wonderful feat OF crossing
the terrible abyss Of Tequendama on a
rope. The crossing of Niagara gave
Blondin universal reputation, he
being the first to try this daring act;
but If considered conscientiously, that
is nothing compared with the crossing
of Tequcndama, for the conditions Of
the two cataracts are quite different.
At Niagara an acrobat who became diz-
zy and lost his equilibrium would fall
into waters that are perfectly tranquil
and very ep-circumstances which
taken in connection with the fact that
the fall would not be more than about
one hundred feet, would give the equili-
brist the assurance Of salvation, for he
would not encounter rocks, and If he
knew something of swimming he would
rise to the surface and swim to one of
the banks or to a boat, which would
pick him up and land him safely. At
Tequendama all the conditions Of the
abyss are against the equilibrlst who,
in case he experiences the slightest dir
illness and falls, would be very certain
of breaking his neck, for he would fall
into raging torrent from the terrible
height of 479 feet! What would be the
size of the largest fragment of the ac-
robat that could be picked up at the
bottom of such an abyss?-Scientiflc

The press department of the Stock
holm Exposition continues to send out
alluring notices Of the various attrac-
lions offered there this summer. The
latest news concerns the army and
navy exhibits and the international re-
gatta. The entrance of the naval ex-
hibit represents the stern of ship Of
the line Of the seventeenth century,
with turrets, campaign lanteEns and
lhagstaffs, while the entrance to the
army exhibit reproduces sumptuous
tent Of the same period. In the bay
a series Of men-of-war are anchored
showing many types from the most an
Client patterns to the modern ironclad;
these are surrounded by a floating
bridge, from which landing bridges
lead up to the different vessels. The
regatta arranged by the Swedish
Yacht club at an expense Of $50, 900 in
honor Of the Kings jubilee in July,
bids fair to be remarkable success.
Emperor William Of Germany will
send his 15O-ton yacht, Meteor and the
German navy the yacht Komet, of the
same tonnage. Many other German
and English yatAts are also expected,
which, together with the Norwegian,
Danish, Finnish and Russian clubs and
the fine feet Of Sweden itself, give
promise Of some very interesting races.

The last British consular report from
Havre and the towns in that district
show that on the whole the importa-
ton of British coal has not been In
judiouslY affected by the new tariff on
the northern and western railways Of
France, which was designed to increase
the consumption Of French coal. The
American consul at Chemnitz reports
that, in spite Of freight reductions all
over Germany and the other efforts to
encourage the consumption Of German
coal, the trade in British coal is still
very large. In 1896 1t amounted to
100000 tons, and 1t increased last
year. Even in Berlin, while the con-
sumption increased by 40 per cent, the
increase in German coal consumed
there was on IL per cent, the rest be-
ing British. England's coal. the Am
erican consul adds, is cheaper and
better than that of continental coun-
tries.

The Russian government is said to
be considering the extension Of the
Transcaucasian railway south through
Teheran to port on the Indian ocean,
This is said to involve no engineering
difficulties. The opening Of such line,
It has been urged, would not fail to be
Of the utmost possible advantage to
Russia, both in extending her CONNER
Cial relations with Persia and neighbor-
ing states, but also opening new and
rapid strategic route to the Indian
ocean. "The only difficulty at present
in the way is stated to be the POSSIBLE
ity Of opposition by the Persian govern
ment to the construction Of the pro-
posed line"
