The coal shipments from the Georges
Creek Cumberland region by rail for
the week ended Saturday, December
25, aggregated 62,06O17 tons. During
the same period 18,195o7 tons of coal
and 3,423 tens of coke were shipped
from the Elk Garden and Upper Poto-
mac region Of West Virginia. The
total shipments for the wear from the
cumberland region aggregate 3,7SS,-
230.O1 tons, an increase Of 256, S33.09
over the same period last year. The
West Virginia Central shipments show
an increase Of 137,22409 tons during
the same period.

business the Consolidated Coal Com
pany. Of Georges Greek, has con-
tracted for sea-going tug and three
additional barges of 1,700 tons each,
increasing their fleet TO six barges and
three steamers. Black, Sheridan &
Wilson have bought the four-masted
schooner, King Philip, 1900 tons, and
are having two 100 ton barges built.
Efforts are being made by some of
the coal consumers to get the operators
to contract fer coal for 1898 at 1897
prices, but their efforts have generally
been declined. In one or two cases,
however, contracts are said to have
been taken at prevailing prices for de-
livery over 1898. but veriication Of
this statement is lacking. If it is SO,
the producer or middlemen is taking
all the chances owing to the uncertain
ty Of the freight market. So far there
have been no limitations CT the rates
that will rule in the coming year.
There were ruLlors some weeks ago
Of material advance in these rates,
but it is hardly thought probable that
the producers nave through freight
rates yet to base the price of their
coal on for the coming year.

The patient is suffering from a can
cerous growth in the stomach, and I'M
less it is cut out the man will die.
Should the doctor find, when he per-
forms the operation, that the entire
stomach is affected by the growth he
will remove that organ entirely. 1t is
a daring operation, but DR.. Walker says
that with death as sure penalty If it is
not done it will be humane to attempt
it.

Needn't Wait Any Longer.

An amusing incident is said to
have occurred at the Grand Union
Hotel, Louisville. the other night. 1t
appears that countryman who was
unusually innocently ignorant of city
ways came TO the hotel with his son.
The father retired early, but his son
went out to improve the time by "sae-
ing the town."
About IL 30 a. m. the countryman
came downstairs and inquired vi me
night clerk if his son had come in yet.
He was told that he had not, and the
father went back TO his room. An
hour later he again appeared before
the night clerk and asked:
"Hain't Jack in yet?"
Again he was told his son was still
out. The old man made several sub
sequent trips, and still his boy was
among the missing. Finally at s 80
a. m. he came YEARLY down the stairs
and again asked if his boy had come
in yet.
"No, he's not in yet, replied the
night clerk.
"Waal, guess he won't come in then.
Guess you need't wait up any longer.
