Mahanoy City, Sept. 19.-Many improve

| collieres, especially at Mahanoy City col
liery, the breaker of which will be extern
sively repaired. slope has been driven at
this cOllery, and the coal will be hoisted
from the lower lift to the surface direct, thus
avoiding two slopes and as many engines as
well as the air Gomprcssors. Two of the
largest pumps in the district will be placed mt
the lower lift to pump direct to the surface.
The improvements will obviate the uso of
mine pumps now i'll use, aud when all is
completed this colliery will rank with any in
the district.
twenty-one foot fan. constructed of iron,
will be placed in position shortly at the Elm
wood colliery, to do the work of two fans
now in operation. A tunnel has been driven
from the Mammoth to the Skidmore vein and
another from the Skidmore to the seven-foot
is proposed. These will add considerably to
the means of ventilation of the coliery
The engines which will be used to hoist
from the underground slope of Schuylkil
coliery have been placed in position near
Jacksons, and work on the engine house will
commence shortly. The rope has not yet
been placed in the tubes, but it is expected
that in about a month the work will be COM
pleted aud hosting commenced.
In most of the collieries screens are being
done away with and shakers substituted
With the shakers more coal can be run
through the breaker in the same period of
time, and the coal can be cleaned better.
Their construction makes them preferable to
screens, from the fact that they are manu-
factured from cast iron plate, punctured full
of holes

beautiful Harvest Home Decorations in
the Trinity Reformed Church.
The Trinity Reformed church ON West
Lloyd street was the scene of al annual Har-
vest Home service of very impressive char
acter last night and the editice was crowded
to the doors. Many people were unable to
gain admittance during the service and for
an hour after its close people passed in con-
tinuous file through the aisles TO view
the decorations specially arranged for
the occasion, ana which were the
prettiest and most unique ever seen
at Il similar service in the town. The entire
space within the chancel rail and full width
Of the church was taken up with mounds of
all the fruits, vegetables and grain of the
season. To the right of the altar beautiful
fountain played with brilliant effect in the
rays of the electric lights and after shooting
high in the air the jets of water fell in
graceful spray upon surrounding bed
of elegant flowers and plants. realis-
tic representation of farm house and
mill scene occupied the center space and was
IA striking feature. A miniature pump with
windwheel attachment was operated near the
! farm house and stream of water flowed
through a mossy bed from the pump to a
trench that carried it to the water wheel con.
nected with the mill. The space to the left
of the altar was occupied by massive mound
of fruits, vegetables etc, Of fine selection
| surmounted by Il large cross made of Malaga
and Concord grapes. The committee that ar
ranged the decorations is certainly entitled Il
great credit for the work. The program for tho
evening consisted Of well rendered anthems
by the choir and an address very appropriate
to the occasion by the pastor, Rev. ROber
o Boyle. The harvest home offering by thu
congregation was very large and the seryic,
as a whole was one of tho most successful il
! the history of the church.

New York, July 23-The World says:
A lawyer has been retained by the
steamship companies who were unsuc-
cessful bidders for transporting the
% GOO captured Spanish prisoners from
Santiago to Spain, and will begin ac-
ton to-day to have the contract made
by the government with the Campag-
nia-Trans- Atlantique Espanola set
aside. The ground taken Is that the
successful bidder is a licensed corpor-
alton of a nation with whom We are at
war. and that according to a measure
passed by the Spanish cortes one-half
of the receipts of every corporation
doing business under the Spanish gov
eminent must be surrendered 10 help
defrav the expenses of the war. BY
letting the contract to Spanish cor
poration. the United States govern
ment pays indirectly into the Spanish
treasury an amount equal to one-half
the contract stipulation. Also that
the government thereby releases from
blockade all of the enemy's vessels TO
