The Coal Trade.

From Phila. Ledger.
The anthracite coal trade has been improved
somewhat by the hand of Providence during
the past week. The cooler weather and high
winds, in the language Of an old coal dealer,
were as good for increasing coal consumption
as a whole week Of severely cold weather.
The managers of the anthracite mining and
carrying companies took advantage of it to
endeaYor to correct their mistake of over
crowding an already surfeited market by the
output Of too much coal during the past two
or three months by ordering a general re-
s%triction of production. This week, and here.
after until the end of the year, it is expected
that the output Of newly mined coal will be
confined as closely as possible to the actual
market requirements. 1t is hoped by doing
this to restore the actual selling prices for
anthracite closer to the July circular figures,
while recently coal has been selling at tide
water competitive points even below the last
May circular quotations. Within the past
day or two prices have stidened about IL
cents per ton.

JERSEYS ANT1-GAMBLING LAW.
Appeal to the Supreme Court FOR n
Recount OF Votes.

Recount of Votes.
Trenton, Nov. 16.-Ex-Senator w.
ID. Edwards, of Hudson county, late
yesterday afternoon made application
to Justices Van Syckel, Dixon and Coll
Inns, Of the supreme court, for a recount
Of the ballots cast 70. and against the
antilgambling amendment to the con-
stitution at the special election on
Sept. 2S. Mr.. Edwards stated that the
anti-gambling amendment had been
carried by SOP votes, and hat he had
reason to believe that nearly If not all
Of the 961 rejected ballots were against
the amendment, and If counted would
change the result. He then explained
how these ballots had been rejected by
the election officers under q misappre-
hension of the law.
Justice Van Syckel asked Mr.. Ed
wards how he expected to bring the
matter up now that the governors
proclamation had been issued declaring
the amendment a part Of the consti-
tuition. Mr.. Edwards said that the con-
stitution provided that an amendment
to be carried should receive a major
ity of the votes, and that it was not
within the power of the governor or the
legislature by n law to defeat this
constitutional provision. Justice Dixon
seemed to coincide with Senator Ed
wards on his point, and the hearing
was continued until today.

STILL ANOTHER.
Parsonage of the Polish Priest visited
without Gain.

MAAmuub VAIN
A discussion of robberies brought to light
to-day the fact that while the storm ragged
early Saturday morning an attempt was made
to rob the parsonage of the Polish Catholic
church on North Jardin street. Rev. J. A.
Lenarkiewicz and the other occupants OF the
parsonage RETAINED from saying anything
about the matter until publicity was given
to the robbery at the Bedea residence, which
took place on the same morning.
1t was about two o'clock in the morning
when Rev. Lenarkiewicz was awakened by
the barking of his dog in the hallway on the
second floor. The priest left his bed and
went to the front room. Opening the win
dow he leaned out and asked, "Who is
there1" Failing to receive an answer Rev.
L%enarkiewicz went back into the hallway
and was intercepted by his houskeeper, Mrs.
Hutton, who remarked hat the light in
the hallway on the first floor was out.
1t is an incandescent light and
the matter was overlooked on the SUPPOSE
ton that some change at the power house
may nave turned out the light temporarily.
Slumber was sought again and there was
no further disturbance, although Rev Lenar-
kiewicz spent several restless hours and was
practically on guard until his housekeeper
arose at six a. m. to prepare breakfast. When
Mrs. Hutton reached the kitchen she found
burnt matches strewn over the floor. Contents
of a sideboard were found disturbed. A
search of the house showed that the robbers
had carried nothing away. To get into the
house they had first tried a cellar window,
but abandoned it and found easy access at
a kitchen window. 1t is believed that the
barking of the dog prevented the visitors
from continuing their explorations outside of
the kitchen. Rev. Lenarkiewicz is now con-
WINGED that an attempt was made to rob the
parsonage about a few weeks ago.

Holiday u

People passing along North Main street are
strikingly anu pleasantly reminded of the
approach Of the Christmas holiday season, es-
peoially when passing Holderman's jewelry
store, where the two great show windows
present an almost dazzling display of
jardinieres, vases, statuary, English and
German stone water jugs, pitchers, cut glass
in endless variety, Dresden clocks, gold and
silver in almost every conceivable form and
diamonds in abundance. No richer display
has ever been made by any business place in
the borough. A glance at it is a rare treat.

An Important Court Decision AReet-
ing All Benefit Societies.

Trenton, Nov. 16.-The court of err
rors and appeals yesterday rendered a
number Of decisions. Among them
the court affirmed the supreme court
in the case of Roxbury lodge Of Odd
Fellows against William Hooking.
When Hooking Joined the Roxbury
lodge the sick benefits were SO a week
for an Indefinite period. Subsequently
they were changed to IS a week for 26
weeks, and 81 a week thereafter. Hook
ing was sick for a long time, and
sought to recover SO a week for the
period, The court decided in his favor,
and laid down the principle that the
benefits which the lodge rules provided
for at the time of a member joining
were in the nature of a contract, and
could not be changed without the men,
ber's consent.

ANOTHER ROBBERY.
The Crooks Are Beginning to Make Ere
quent Visits Again.

The Crooks Are Beginning to Make FIRE.
quent Visits Again.
It seems that, resting secure in the belief
that because no arrests of thieves have been
recorded in town for some time past they can
proceed with impunity, the crooks are re-
newing their depredations. Yesterday atten-
ton was called to a visit by burglars to the
Bedea residence on North Jardin street. Now
a burglary at the residence of DR.. J. w.
Erwin, dentist, on South Jardin street,
is recorded. The latter visit was made
in the day time, while the family was
absent. The burglars secured a coat, re-
vOlyer, razor, lady's gold watch and
gentleman's silver watch. Entrance to the
house was effected by prying open a rear
window, 1t is hoped the authorities will
show the crooks that the reason why there
has been a lull in the arrest of thieves is be-
cause there was no occasion and that when
crooks give occasion they cannot do so with
out endangering their liberty.

KILLED BY A LOG.
Fatal Accident at the p. q r.. Freight
Depot To-day.

George Siglin, employed as laborer by
James Bankes, the timber dealer of Ring
town, received fearful crush of the skull at
the freight depot Of the Philadelphia & Read
ing Railway at eleven o'clock this morning
and died an hour and a half later.
SiRlin and Robert Brobst, of Ringtown,
and Patrick Igo., Jr., of town, were engaged
in loading upon a timber truck large logs
which had been unloaded from a gondola at
the depot. Their method of working was to
pull the logs along skids up to the truck with
the aid of a rope and pulley. A log was
being handled in this manne and was al
most up on the truck when the rope broke.
Siglin and Igo were following the log, push
ing it up the skids. Hearing the swapping
Of the rope Igo jumped aside and escaped
injury. Siglin, on the contrary, exerted
extra strength in an effort TO prevent the log
from sliding back to the ground, but lis
weight was too great. 1t forced Siglin back,
wards SO quickly that he fell and the log
struck him a g~lancing blow on the forehead.
The victim was picked up unconscious and
carried into the p. & r. freight station. DIR.
J. z. Roberts was called. He made a briei
examination and shook his head in a manner
that indicated there was little hope. He said
there was a compressed fracture Of the skull
that might prove fatal in less than an hour
There was great pressure Of the fractured
parts upon the brain. He thought, however
that there would be a chance il the victim
could reach the Miners hospital in time t.
have a quick and skillful operation performed
A vehicle was secured and Siglin's ~unconscioul
form was taken to the p. & r. passenger
depot in time to be placed on the 1l:3O train
The journey was made to Ashland and tn,
hospital was reached at 1890, noon, but fv,
minutes later Siglin expired.
The deceased was a man 80 years of agu
and lived at Ringtown. He leaves a wife ant
child to mourn his death.

that good birds can be depended upon

When pigeons were tc be sent back

two sets, with their respective homes
at either end of the course; and when
they have reached their home. to carry
them buck to the places from which
they are to dispatched. They become
in the course OF time familiar with their
new home and its choice dishes. When

The End of 1t All.

Tho proud man, fat with tho fat Of the land,
Dozcd back i'll his siken chair;
Choice wines OF the world, black men "a
command,
Rare curios-rich and rare
Tall knights in armor on either hand
Yet trouble was in the air.
Tho proud man dreamed OF his younger
days. when
He toilcd iyht-heartel and sang all day;
he dreamed again OF his gold and Of men
Grown old in his service and hungry and
gray.
Then his two hands frightened a time; and
then
They frightened, and frightened to stay. 7!
All me! this drunkenness worse than winei
This grasping with greedy hold!
Why. the poorest man upon earth, opine,
Is the man vino has nothing but gold.
How better tho love OF man divine,
With Gods lovo manifold.
-s.---,..-,
They came to the dead man back In his
chair,
Dusk liveriel servants that come with tho
light;
His eyes stood open with frightened stare,
But his hands still frightened as vice 10
tight.
They opened his hands-nothing was there,
Nothing but bits of night.
