things are coming soon.
Everybody is going to Round
Bay next Monday.
Some people get too high for

The BEE is the peoples paper.
Don't be alarmed, because the
noise is only a signal that some
thing will drop.
Those who have been kicked out
of office can sympathize with those
who were removed four years ago.
Unhappy is the man who de-
peDds on official promises.
He often goes insane or dies in
despair.
He who expects nothing will
receive much.
1t is natural for some men to
be deceitful.

The drill on Monday was great
affair.
He is a poor man who refuses to
to look out for his children.
Be honest, that is the best policy.
The official axe will now begin
to play its part.
Bishop Arnett ought to remain
in Ohio.
He doesn't represent the negro
of this country.
He informed the President that
the appointment of Lee of Florida,
is sufficient recognition for the
negro in the South.
Who does Bishop Arnett repre-
sent?
Some negroes are very small.
Will President Mckinley give us
a colored Judge of the police court.
One negro appointed to repre-
sent the South is enough, says
Bishop Arnett.
When will these back number
politicians die and let the race
progress:
Who delegated Bishop Arnett to
represent the race?
The Norfolk Recorder is kicking
itself over disappointments.
He who expects nothing will
surely receive great deal.
Bring your sisters, cousins and

The Works CT the Kevfoundout Mines De-
efrnved hv Fi-a

4 fire broke out in the coal tipple OF
> the Newloundout coal mines on the Ber-
lin and Garret railroad, Friday night last
and consumed all tho buildings, fixtures
and tools connected with operating tho
plant. When the blaze was first discOv-
cred il was in the roof of the coal tipple.
The wind was very strong and il was not
long until the entire building was in
flames. From this the flame spread to
the Office, engine house, blacksmith shop
and a shanty nearby, destroying with
the weigh scales, cars, tools and other
perishable property, and doing much
damage to the boiler, engine, pipes and
iron structures i'm general. DIR. Carey,
the owner of the property, puts his loss
at about $1,000.
The mines were being operated by the
Mcdowell brothers, who leased the prop
erty from Mr.. Carey four or five months
ago and spent about 5000 in pumping
out the water and putting the property
into condition for work. Considerable
time was required for this and these gen.
tlemen had only fairly begun coal ship
ping operations when the fires destruc-
ton put stop to it.
Ii was between 8 and 10 o'clock when
the fire was seen. 1t is supposed to have
caught from spark or a heated pipe.
Men who had been working there until
after o'clock had banked the fire and
started for their homes and not over fif-
teen minutes afterward the fire broke
out.
1t is reported that the McDowells will
rebuild, but not on the old site. They
will move further up the hill and sink a
slope instead of shaft, utilizing the old
opening as and airshaft.-Berlin Record.

RIDING ON THE RAIL.
Conductor Waite Furnishes Two Sensations.

/ Conductor Waite Furnishes Two Sensations
The passengers on the morning train to
lockwood Saturday had rather more cx-
citement than the Il. * O. usually fur
| nishes ut schedule rates, SAYS the Johns
| town Democrat. The start was made
| from Johnstown without any sort of
warning of what was to come and Con-
ductor BILLY" Waite punched tickets
with the same urbanity that he shows
when the Young Women's Fishing Club
takes an excursion TO Paint Creek or
| Holsopple. II was lovely morning, af-
ter an all night rain, and the passengers
were feeling glad they were alive.
And just as they were feeling that way
the most a part of the mountain took
| sudden notion TO slide down and try con-
clusions with Conductor Waite's train.
This happened the other side of Kring n
few miles, at a poirt where misunder-
standing with the track might easily
have landed the train in the river and
perhaps all the passengers as well as the
crew thought of this when they felt the
collision of the landslide with the cars.
Fortunately, no great damage was done.
The big rock that came down the side of
the hill struck fairly between the baggage
car and the smoker and those in the latter
car got pretty good jolt and all ofthem
thought a smashup was coming in sec
ond, but the liyeliest jump was made by
the nimble train boy. He evidently
meant 10 get away if he could.
However the engineer had seen the
rock topple as the engine thundered by
and when he saw he couldn't get the train
clear in time, he threw on the brakes and
brought it 10 a standstill, after the steps
of the smoker had been torn off and the
journal boxes slightly damaged. As soon
as it was seen that no real harm had been
done, the train hustled on up the noun
tain while the passengers began to tell
each other tales of peril on the rail.
And just as these were becoming ex-
hausted and just as the train boy got his
heart-beats down to normal, the air
brakes gripped the wheels again and
everybody got up suddenly in breath
less suspense. No one knew what had
happened for some moments, but the
train stopped and then began to back up
briskly. A dozen car lengths or so back
those on the rear platform could see the
figure of man lying at the side of the
track. Then the word was passed through
the cars that 1--WE have killed man.
Happily, it was not so bad as that. 4
man had been struck by the engine and
knocked 10 or % feet. but he wasn't kill
ed nor even very seriously hurt. Hewas
groaning feebly when picked up by the
crew and put aboard the baggage car and
presently he revived enough TO sit up and
talk. Ii subsequently was learned that
he was a lunatic escaped from the Somer-
Sc. alnshouse and that the authorities
had been looking for him for two or three
days. He had been sitting on the ties
and the engine struck him before it could
be brought to a stop. The poor fellow
had his shoulder aud two or three ribs
broken, but otherwise his injuries were
not severe.

Arbor Days Fixed.

Governor Hastings has fixed upon FRI
day, April 8, and Friday, April %, as
Arbor Days for this year.
In his proclamation the Governor gives
some interesting facts concerning the
benefits growing out Of the observance of
Arbor Days. lie says: THE custom of
annually fixing day TO be celebrated as
Arbor Day has spread into every section
of the country. The value of these cele-
brations has been abundantly manifest.
In the State which claims the honor of
having originated Arbor Day more than
three hundred and fifty million trees
were planted during the first years.
school grounds have been adorned,
the surroundings of the home have been
beautified, public parks have been multi
piled and the landscapes and charming
scenery of Pennsylvania may yet be
made still more attractive. We are rap
idly passing from destructive To a con-
structive policy. We have learned the
lesson that trees and forests are essential
to our continued prosperity and that he
who plants tree, whether hoy or man
is public benefactor.r

A letter has been received by the au-
thorities of the Presbyterian Hospital in
Allegheny from William Mcconnell, of
McConnelPs Mills, Washington county,
who was discharged from the hospital
several months ago. Mcconnell was
operated OH for a cancer in his left upper
jaw. More than half of the bone had to
be cut out. 1t was replaced with alum
mum. When Mcdonnell left the hospital
he could not eat any food that required
masticating. Tine flesh healed over the
aluminium portion of the jaw perfectly,
and he grew a full beard, but not until
recently was Mcconnell able to eat solid
food. In his letter 10 the hospital author
tiles he states that he is now able to mas :
ticate the hardest kind of food with his
aluminium jaw.
