The Coal Famine.

The coal famine extends as far south
as Ell Paso, and west into Arizona. For
some time the coal departments of the
Santa Fe and the Texas & Pacific have
been unable to find miners enough to
work the mines at Cerrillos and Boss
burg in this territory, S~tarkville in Colo
RADIO and at Thurber in Texas, conSe-
quently the southwest is now looking to
the Salado coal fields in Lincoln county
and the Eddys to help out as soon as the
track gets into the new coal fields. With
those great deposits within easy reach,
there will be no occasion for coal famines
hereafter. The vast fields will be able
to supply the entire southwest alone,
and Mr.. Eddy will do an immense bust
ness in selling coal to all of the railroads
entering Ell Paso.

RUNAWAY INDIAN BOYS,
Two Papagos Skip Out from Grand Junction
School and Walk All the Way to
Santa Fa.

Two Papago Indian boys, aged II
and giving their names as Claude Wey-
festermal and Samuel Scabola, We're ar
rested last evening by Marshal Gale
Cos and jailed pending examination as
to their antecedants, They proved to be
runaway boys from the Indian school at
Grand Junction, Colorado, and We're
trying to get back to their homes south
of Phoenix, A. II. They have been a
month on the road, following the lines
of railway, and discovered that the dis
tance was much greater than they had
figured upon They walked all of the
way, and begged their victuals as they
went along. The boys were pretty well
tagged out, and were very hungry.
They appear to be very decent youths,
and ran away because they were home
sick. The marshal handed the Papagos
over to Prof. Viets, superintendent of
the Indian school here, and he will care
for them until it is decided whether to
return them to Grand Junction, keep
them here, or send them home.

TWO PENSIONS ASKED.
One for Blindness, the Other for a
Daughter of a Revolutionary

One for Blindness, the Other for a
Daughter of Revolutionary
Soldier
A special pension bill introduced by
Congressman Russell is in favor. of
Ezra G. Bill of Norwich, who has be-
come blind as the result of his service
in the rebellion. Mr.. Bill was never in
the regular service serving as a scout
under General Phelps in Louisiana
andas arecruiting officer and was with
the Fifth and Twelfth regiments of
Connecticut Volunteers, although not
regularly enlisted. This bill has a
slight prospect of becoming law. al
though several thousand are ahead of
it on the calendar.
Another bill introduced by Congress
man Russell provides for the pension
ing of Rachel Spicer, daughter of Abel
Spicer, a soldier in the revolution. 1t
is doubtful If this is passed by the
house, as so far this session on bills
giving pensions to revolutionary
daughters have been reported, al
though few such daughters have
previously been pensioned. 1t was not
supposed there were so many in the
country when the precedent was first
established, and there is an inclination
in the house not to grant any more
pensions in these cases.

THE IMMENSELY OF SPACE.

Miss Mary Proctor Discusses "Our
Place Among Infinities.
A large audience at the Bridgeport
Scientific society's rooms Wednesday
night listened to a lecture by Miss
Mary e. Proctor upon the subject of
astronomy. "Our Place Among Inf1n-
ities'' was the title Of her address, and
it was delivered with the usual clear
ness of style which make her lectures
so delightful. In an impressive man
ner she told of the vastness of the I'M
iverse, so great in extent that our own
solar system, large though it seems to
our finite minds, was but a point in
comparison with the immensely of
space. The merest star Is so far away
that light travelling with inconceivable
velocity occupies no less than four
years In reaching the earth, while from
some Of the more distant stars the
light only reaches the earth after tray
cling for centuries.
Were an eve capable of seeing events
upon the earth, placed upon one of
these distant stars, it would receive
the light hundreds of years ago, and
those events would alone be visible
which took place at the time when the
light left this planet. So that the
landing Of Columbus, the great bat
ties of history, and all the thousands
of minor events since then, are still
sending their images out into infinite
space. The mind utterly fails to ade-
! quately conceive such immensely of
space, and pauses, bewildered at the
| threshold of the universe.
| For ages the countless host of stars
which stud the sky like jewels, have
been the subjects of conjecture and
speculation in the minds of thinking
men. Various are the theories which
have been advanced in explanation of
their origin and history, from the
crude notions Of the ancients to the
modern theories advanced by Laplace,
and in our own time by Lockyer. The
| two latter are the only ones now con-
| sidered by astronomers, and each has
| it's adherents who sen the heavens
| for proof for or against their views.
| Truth seekers, who would solve the
mystery of the universe, future ages
may perhaps, solve this problem but
at present the evidence is not sufff-
GENTLY conclusive to warrant deci-
sion. In illustration of the salient
points of her address Miss Proctor
used a series of beautiful stereopticon
views, many Of them photographs
taken with the aid of the great tele-
scopes of the world, each carefully ex-
planned and the wonderful develop
ment in modern instrumental astrono-
my made apparent,
Several of the views shown were
made by Professor Barnard at the
Lick observatory. A description OF
this observatory and the great tele-
scope contained in it was given, also OF
the great Yerkes telescope, the largest
in the world. In conclusion Miss Proc
tor read some beautiful lines of poetry
upon the grandeur and extent of the
universe. At the conclusion of her adj
dress the speaker was heartily APP
plauded.

twenty dollar silver certificate. The
fire had completely destroyed the pa
per, but the ink presented the tracing
as it will do in the ash. Mrs, Brown
was able to certify that there was a
twenty dollar silver certificate in the
box of ashes. She will probably find
the box, and she may be able to re-
deem all the money burned. She hard
ly expects to do that, however.
She also has In her desk the scraps
OF currency found on the lake front in
Chicago several years ago. She has
been able to put together those scraps
so as to make good two five hundred
dollar bills. one fifty dollar bill and sew
eral of smaller denomination, but, as
this money was found and the govern
ment does not redeem money that has
been found for fear that the loser may
put In claim, the bills remain in Mrs.
Browns desk unredeemed. She re-
ceived a package from Chicago yester-
day containing a number of bills
amounting to one hundred dollars,
which were rotted by weather exposure.
They bore every evidence Of having
DeGH IOUtUQ, DuL lile StIlQcl 0id iios
vouchsafe any explanations, and what
can be determined will be redeemed.
Here is one phase of the case where
honesty is not rewarded by Uncle Sam.
If you find money which has been torn
into scraps, as in the lake front case,
just send 1t to the Treasury without ex-
PLANTATION or confession. 1t will be re-
deemed. But If you confess that it was
found Uncle Sam will keep it, And If
your money is burned do not handle the
ashes. Just gather up the whole mass
of ashes as carefully as possible, try
not to break up the lump, and send 1t
to the Treasury. Mrs. Brown will dig
out the denominations and redeem
them If it is possible.
Most such unfortunates are like Mr..
Bissell. They either try to sort the
ashes and scraps and put them together
in their own way, or they take for
granted that they are beyond detection
and redemption. That was Mr.. Bis
sells mistake. He sent an affidavit of
his loss. He should have sent the
charred mass, including gold and silver
and bills. Had he done SO he might
have been able to redeem several thou
sand dollars instead Of the four hun
dred dollars represented by the gold.
His ignorance has lost him more than
three thousand dollars and his appeal
| will be in vain.-Chicago Inter-Ocean.

Gov. Waller Wants Prize offered to
Him.
In a recent conversation in New
London on school matters, in which
the question OF prizes for scholarship
came up, 1t was the opinion of ex-Gov-
ernor Waller that there ought to, be
prizes for the low boy, the boy less
richly gifted than his fellows but who
tries to succeed by his diligence and
hard work. That the governor meant
all he said the following letter will
confirm:
New London, Conn. Jan. 30, 1898.
Chas. B. Jennings, Esq, Supervisor of
Public Schools.
My Dear Mr.. jennings:
If you think it will promote the in
terests Of your school shall be glad to
offer three prizes of FIVE dollars each
to the juniors Of the Nathan Hale
Grammar school to be given one to the
scholar now in &c" room, one to the
scholar now in "A'' room and one to
the scholar now in "B" room who
makes the most Improvement upon his
or her present record during the re-
mainder of this school year.
And I shall be glad with your ap-
prevail to offer like prizes to the seniors
of next year.
propose three prizes especially for
Improvement because think after
all that the scholar who tries the most
and improves the most is best entitled
to honorable recognition.
Very truly yours,

JEALOUSY.

Danbury's desire for a new court
house is laudable. The present ancient
building is not fit to hold court in and
cannot be made so. But Danbury
should realize the fact that if she
wants anything she will have to work
hard for it. There's no more jealous
city in the state than Bridgeport, and
she doesn't propose to help Danbury to
something that will injure her trade.
People from up Danbury way who are
compelled to go to Bridgeport to attend
court usually improve the opportunity
to do some trading. Bridgeport knows
this and her eyes are open to the main
chance.-Ansonia Sentinel
