Queen yictoria's Voice.

Queen Nictoria's voice is exceedingly
winning when She chooses to be gra-
..iouS although it can be sharp and i'm
pcrious in rcproof. 1t entirely lacks
that species Of harsh cultural tone and
accent which is so remarkable in the
voice of the Prince Of Wales and of his
brothers and sisters.

simmons. Not once, but fifty times did
she importune me to place that sum
on the Australian, for, she said, she
just knew he would win. Nor was IL
merely the whim of a woman who was
taking sides idly. Her opinion was
based on the most careful study and
reading of everything about the fight
for weeks before it came off.
Alas! what AIN evil genius possessed
me when / broke the promise 1 made
her that I'd bet on the auburn haired
one. ] had began to think that 1t was
the right 'hunch more on account OF
her persistence than anything else. She
danced for joy, for she already saw the
diamond ring that I'd promised her IL
her tip went straight. So l said good
by and landed in Baltimore with the
firm intention Of placing that 500 on
Fitzsimmons. Then / meditated how
foolish it would be to allow the SUPER
stitions and silly preferences of a wo-
man to keep me from putting the
money on a winner But it's useless
to prolong the tale. The $40 should
possess now plus the 800 that went
glimmering, is too sad a thing to think
Of But there's a lady in st. Louis
who'll never hear a word about he mat
ter. for she'll get a ring just the same,
and wear it in innocence of the facts"

Curious Coincidence Noted ia the Case
of The Fuller Breaker at MaItby,
Destroyed Yesterday.

Wilkes-Barre, May 2S.-Conccrning
the Fuller breaker at Maltby, the burn
ing Of which was mentioned in yes
terday's Tribune, the Times this even
ing says:
The shaft under the breaker burned
this morning was originally sunk by
Fuller & Stetler, of Scranton, but after
operating the breaker for some time
it was sold by them to the D., L. e. W.
Co. The coal land underlying the
breaker and adjacent thereto is jointly
owned by Lawrence Myers and the
Hunt estate of the citH About six
years ago, it will be remembered, the
shaft and workings were flooded. Wig

cuted for many months, but there
seemed to be no end to the water,
which came to within fifty feet of the
surface, and after a long seige, the D..
L. & w. company abandoned the work
and since then no effort has been made
to put the workings in shape so that
they could be operated. Later on the
wyoming Coal & Land company began
operations about one-half mile distant
where 1t owns 450 acres of coal land
and rather than go to the expense of
building a breaker it leased the Hunt
breaker from the D., L. e. w. Co, and
the coal it mined was prepared for
market there, being hauled from the
mine in cars over it's own track built
for that purpose.
fetWeen II and o'clock this morning
the aged watchman of the, works was
sitting in the office eating his lunch,
When he heard a peculiar cracking
noise. Hurrying outside he glanced
upward and was Mortified by seeing
fameS shooting from the side of the
breaker about at the point where the
trestlng joins it, He sounded the
alarm, and soon there was a large
crowd of people assembled, but as there
were no fire-flghting facilities at hand,
nothing could be done to stay the work
OF the flames, and the entire structure
together with the boiler house, a small
supply house three fiat cars and two
coal cars of the Delaware, Lackawanna
ana western company were destroyed.
Near the works are several houses oc-
cupied by the wOrkmen, who had a
lively time preventing the flames from
communicating to them, though they
succeeded admirably.
In talk with William Griffiths. of
west Plttston, who is president Of the
company he told a reporter. this morn
ing that as the Wyoming Coal and
Land company could not get along
without breaker the structure would
no doubt be rebuilt but he could not
say definitely at that time whether the
company or the Delaware, Lackawan-
ma and Western would bear the ex-
pense. Neither Mr.. Griffiths nor the
watchman could explain how the fire
originated.
A singular thing in connection with
the burning of the breaker is that it
is TIE third destroyed in the same VIC
unity within very short time. First
the Mt. Lookout was burned then the
Maltby and now the Fuller-all situat-
ed within three miles of each other.
