u is important that the nerves are care
IDLY guarded. Mothers who have young
daughters Of school age should watch their
health more carefully than their studies.
The proper development Of their bodies
is Of first importance.
After the confinement of the school

All this is self-evident. Everyone ad-

POLITICAL POINTS.

Quite number of Schuylkil Republicans
=. have received letters from Senator Quay, en-
listing their support in opposition to the
Wanamaker movement. They should bear
the Brumm signature.
"Murt" Quinn Of Pousvillc is candidate
| for the Democratic nomination for Congress.
The tide seems to be turning his way.
Up to the present time Brumm has turned
down five newspaper men, and appointed
but one a Democratic, and he has never
been commissioned. OF course, the press will
be a unit in his support
While VI. f. Doyle, of town, has not yet
consented to become candidate for the
Legislature it is probable he will receive the
Democratic nomination
If Governor Hastings appoints a Controller
for this county, his name will he-Chas. A.
Snyder, Esq.
John Kershner of Tamaqua, ex-member
of the Legislature, will seek the Senatorial
Nomination this year. He was in Shenan-
ioah last week circulating among the
workers.
One of the considerations of the appoint
ment OF Frank Reed as postmaster at Maha-
nOy City is that Miss Annie McAtec is to be
deputy. Brumm has named the subordinates
under all the postmasters he has yet given
out.
Messrs. Bashore Moran and Mclaughlin.
deputies to District Attorney Bechtel, will all
be candidates for the District Attorney
nomination before the next County Demo
cratic convention.
Another Greenbacker has been given the
marble heart" by the treatment accorded
David Graham, of Mahanoy City.
The appointment of Surveyor of the Port
at Philadelphia will probably be made this
l.
tive Lytle and John f. Fnney.
The successors to County Commissioners
Frank Rentz and John P Martin, resigned,
will be Frank Kantner, of Lofty and Joseph
Nichter, Of Pottsville. Should Commissioner
Meyers be removed the Taxpayers Associa-
tion will name his successor.
The Democratic pot continues to call the
Democratic kettle black.
How many delegates will John Wana-
maker get from Schuylkill county? Wait
and see.
Congressman Brumm, in an interview
says IL am very sorry to see the prospect of
fight in the Republican ranks, and hope
that some way may be found to bring about
compromise. l know that fight for
Governor within the ranks will lose the party

tion of which Republican shall be Governor
There are several Democrats who would
like the Senatorial lightning to strike them
but they are all afraid of James l. Blakslee
His nomination seems to be assured.
Burd Payne is a candidate for Controller
with proviso. If the Governor has the ap-
pOntment Payne will not be a candidate, but
should the court name the successor to Mr.
Severn, the latter's deputy will try for the
plum, He needn't lose any sleep over the
matter; the next Controller will not write
his name with pain.

A CHASTITY FIND.
Joseph Bradley, of Jacksops Patch, Found
Mangled on "a Railroad.

mhngled ON "a kHilrOaus
The manglcd remains of Joseph Bradley,
young man residing at Jackson's patch, were
picked up ON the Philadelphia and Reading
Railway tracks on the southern outskirts Of
town just after passenger train had passed
over them at about three o'clock yesterday
morning The remains were picked up by
the crew of the train and removed to the
passenger station, where they remained un
identified until one o'clock yesterday after
noon, when Bernard Bradley, a young man
Of Jackson's patch, identified them as those
Of his brother. The deceased was about "a
years of age and a son of Jane and the late
Patrick Bradley.
After the Identification was made Under
takcr Franey removed the remains to the
mothers home in Jacksons. There Under
taker Haughaney, of Mahanoy City, took
charge of them An examination was made
by DIR. Dunn. of Mahanoy City, who had
been summoned by the family. The doctor
found that the right leg had been severed
near the hip, the left leg was almost severed
at the same place. the abdomen was badly
mutilated, the skull was fractured in two
places, jaw disocated and the right arm
broken.
The train that ran over the man was run
ming north and was in charge of Conductor
John j. Stevens and Engineer Isaac Bach
man. The latter says that as his train was
approaching that part of the track which is
spanned by the Pennsylvania Railroad bridge
he observed by the reflection of his engine S
headlight the body of man lying across
| the rails on which his train was running.
/ Bachmqn shut off steam and reversed, hut
he was unable to stop the train before it had
/ passed over the body. When the remains
were picked up they were cold, showing that
/ the victim must have been dead before the
| train passed over him. The body WAS dragged
about the length of two rails. or sixty feet,
and picked up about nine rails length south
Of the Shenandoah City collery switch.
These measurements confirm the statement
of the engineer that the body was aim ost
under the Pennsylvania Railroad bridge
when he first saw it, and it is generally
agreed that the victim was first killed by
falling from the bridge.
Reports of foul play have gained circula.
| ton and some of the victims relatives re-
fuse to accept any other theory. They claim
that the deceased had silver watch with
him when he left his home. No watch was
found on his body When it was picked up
the crew searched the pockets and found a
red silk handkerchief a spoon, the fragments
of Il small medicine bottle and exactly one
dollar in change The presence of the spoon
and bottle is accounted for by the relatives,
who say the victim was suffering from
quinsy. From accounts thus far CLEANED
Bradley was last seen at his home in Jack
sons at eight o'clock Saturday night and he
said nothing about visiting this town.
| The man who first handled tho body was
James Smith. the fireman of the train, who
says the body was perfectly cold.

Spain WIN Not Provoke War.

Madrid, March 14.-The view held in
official circles is that Spain will not
provoke war, because if she did she
would find herself isolated, but if
America gives the provocation Spain
will not be alone in the struggle. The
general opinion is that in the event of
war Spain win not need to attack
American territory. 1t will suffice her
to pursue a war of privateering. AS
Americas commerce is seven fold
greater than Spain's, American in
terests would suffer most. War would
be madness, benefiting neither nation,
and good sense, therefore, counscls
peace.
