The Medical Record says: Most
of the; catarrhs, sore throats and
other forms of colds are contracted
from the want of proper ventila-
ton. 1t is possible to catch as bad
ia cold in close, ill-ventilated
room as in cold draughty one.
Pure air is the surest preventive of
cold as of many other diseases.
An American army $4,000 strong
is an ugly thing to run against.
Half breeds spelling for fight will
try something easier next time.
Tt is computed that 100000
babies are born into the world
every year, which is at the rate of
20 per minute, or little oftener
than one per second.

THE X. 8 NJ.
Coal Operators Will Also Form a
Combine in the Near
Future.

Charleston Gazette.
In reference to the consolidation
of the New river and Kanawha
river coal operators it may be stated
authoritatively that the publioa-
ton that the new combine has al
ready been effected were somewhat
Premature.
The scheme is progressing salts
faotorily and will probably be con-
summated at the next meeting,
which will be held in this CITY some
time next week. The object of the
combine is not to raise prices or to
form any joint stock organization,
but simply an agreement to estab-
lish one sales agency to dispose OF
the product of the mines represent
ed. Under the old system by which
each operator disposed of his pro-
duct it frequently happened that
he would get contract too large to
be filed Immediately, while anoth-
er operator might not be employed.
The combination and the union
of sales is tended to equalize and
divide the orders among the differ
ent operators SO as to keep all the
mines working and enable them to
supply the demand, 1t is said
there can be no successful effort
made to increase prices for at tids-
water the operators of the Now riv-
er and Kanawha valley are brought
into competition with the B. q o.,
Norfolk and Western interests and
the supply from the upper Ohio and
the west A scheme to increase
prices would only be successful by
consolidating all of these competing
interests. Coal men generally, even
those who are outside of the deal,
regard the combine as good thing.
1t is stated by an operator in po-
sition to be acquainted thoroughly
with the situation that the operators
along the K. and M. road will soon
form similar organization.

SOUTHAMPTON. May 4.-The Amer

here to-day. Her passengers report
that they had pleasant voyage.
Speaker Thomas B. Reed said to the
correspondent Of the Associated Press,
who greeted him at the steamship pier,
that he had come to Europe for a rest.
He was shown n cablegram pub

he had not resigned his post as speaker
OF the house of representatives.. and
that he might be candidate for the
presidency. Mr.. Reed expressed great
Indignation. and regretted that people
could not leave his affairs alone. He
had come here, he said. away from

his family he was going to Winchester
and Salisbury and thence to Paris.

the death Of prominent banker and
statements that banks had called loans
and refused further accommodations to

in turn was positively denied, but not
until substantial declines in stocks had
been effected. London was liberal
