of Goebcl declared that he had been
legally elected and set about TO make
him governor by means uf the I.cgls-

SOME MISLEADING FIGURES.
Calculated To Create Discomfort in
the Minds of the UnthiE<ing.

Scranton, pn, Oct s..-No5 that a
convention to consider the zen per
cent increase offer is assured, at.cn.
ton is turned TO the question of what
the companies mean by ten per cent.
in the case of the miner and his help.
er.
The miner works by contract and
pays the laboIers ont of his earnings.
As a rule the miner cuts six loads of
coal, for which he gets $500. Out of
this he pays for powder, oil and repair
for tools and the wages of his helper.
The laborers' pay is fixed at so much
per day, and in that region it averages
about one dollar and seventy-fye
cents. After paying the laborer and
the expense of powder, oil, etc, the
miner has about two dollars and thir.
ty cents left for himself. Ten per
cent. advance gives the miner 63 cents
extra per day. The laborer wants his
ten per cent, or Is cents, and as a
consequence the miner must be con.
ANAAA WIN IL NNAAlNN VI SNN1u pei NGult
But in many instances a miner has
two laborers. This means that sc
cents must come out of his 63 cents,
and the miner finds himself enjoying
an advance of only five per cent.
just how the operators want this
offer interpreted is not known here.
The local operators say that the men
who framed the offer either did not
have in mind that the miner pays the
laborer, or else, having this in mind
figured the laborer out of the consid.
Grafton altogether, and left it for the
miner and laborer to settle between
themselves what, if any, portion OF
the ten per cent, the laborer should
receive. The laborers will not, it is
thought, be content with anything
less than a full ten per cent. raise, an6
this, It is thought, is going to cause
q hitch when the convention comes ia
consider the question.

HOT SPRINGS RESERVATION.
Interesting Report of the superln-
tendent With Timely Rec
concentrations.

Washington, Oct. 8.--An interesting
report on the Hot Springs reservation
in Arkansas has been submitted to
the secretary of the interior by the
superintendent, Martin A. Eisele.
Mr.. Eisele says that the springs,
during the past season reached the
high water mark of popularity. Ae-
cording to the best estimates there
were $4,000 visitors during the season.
The income to the government from
water and ground rents amounted to
S1S,670, while the fixed charges We're
only about fourteen thousand dollars,
leaving a fair balance, which, in ac-
cordance with the liberal policy of the
government, was available for inn
provements of different portions of
the reservation.
The reservation includes 911 acres,
and in this tract there are tj7 govern
ment lots still unsold. The superins
tendent says the sale Of these lots,
which have been appraised at $4,000
would go far toward providing the
money necessary in perfecting the
work of park Improvement now 90
ing forward, and he earnestly recon-
mends a reappraisement Of the
ground and sale of the lots during
March, 1901, when the influx of vis-
itors to the springs is at its height
The sale of lots, he saws, also will
be of benefit to the municipality, as
many of them stand in the way of
street improvement and their private
ownership viii subject them TO taxa
tion for the benefit of the city, whilj
adding to the value of the property
oy the handsome residences which viii
be erected on them.
The administration of the springs
by the governor, Mr. Eisele says, has
been wise and benefcent. The amount
of water distributed to each bath
house is scrupulously controlled and
the publicprotected from monopoly
eNtortion by the schedule of charges
provided by the secretary of the in
terror.
The free government bath house
has grown to be a most important IN
stitution and of great benefit to the
INDECENT sufferers who otherwise
would not have the benefit of the
waters. The record of this establish
.nent for the past year shows Q, sos APP
plications for free baths, of which
only 2l6 were refused for various rea.
sons. The total number of single
free baths given was 10000, at a net
cost of 1.57 cents per bath.
One of the features of the free bath
patrons noted in the report is that
there are bath fiends who have a NOR
bid craving for the treatment, much
the same as the craving for drugs and
whisky among other inebriates

LET THE GOVERNMENT ACT.
PROMPT and Effective Measures
should he Taken to Preserve
The Giant Forests.


Washington, Oct. s.-Capt. Frank
West, of the Sixth cavalry, acting SUI
perintendent Of the Sequoia and Gen-
eral Grant national parks, in Cali
fornia, has submitted his annual re-
port to the secretary Of the interior.
The first Of these parks is the larger,
containing, it is estimated, from l.
600 to 5000 of the mammoth Sequoia
trees, for which California is noted.
Capt. West says, for the benefit of the
public, as the best rCmc for reaching
the giant forest is not generally
known, that the proper point a.
which to leave the railway is Visalia,
Tulage county. Ihercc there is
gond road Jhrongh the park-like coun-
try to the hewcah river, and leading
thence through the Ash mountains
into the park, The park itself is or
a high table land from $500 to 1900
feet in altitude, and commands a view
Of some Of he mos magnificent
mountain scenery in the Rockies.
lie recommends, in some detail, the
extension of Tie park boundaries To
take in a portion OF this mountain
tract, eastward to Mr. Whitney and
the main Sierra divide, and north
ward to take in the Kings River can.
yon. This section, Capt. West says,
exceeds in beauty and grandeur any
thing to be found in Switzerland, and
is part of the public domain untitled
for agriculture, but Of importance as
n game preserve, and g. conserve the
water supply on which the immense
citrus fruit interests o. Tulare coun-
ty depend.
The General Grant park is only two
miles square. ami is in very bad con-
dition, owing 10 fallen timber and
rubbish whicn should be cleared away
Immediately. 1t contains over one
hundred and twenty-five large Sc
quotas, including the famous General
Grant tree, and a little work wonll
make it a maycllously beautiful spot.
One serious danger which ais
threatens the Scquoia park is the
presence of saw mills on private lands
included within the boundari - of the
park. 1t is said there are j.440 acres
so held. The mills are running the
giant trees in their rei,rhborhood, us
ing them IN the moss criminlily,
wasteful manner. taking only the
clear timber anl leaving the immense
tops to rot On the ground AM be a
menace by fr4 TO all The remainder
of the park. Capt. .est recommends
tnat these lnads be appraised ,pced3ly
and purchased by the government.
