THE railroads in the new Klondike
field adjacent to Masontown, Pa, will
be operated by telephone orders. On
Saturday last consignment of ten
long distance telephones was received
at Uniontown for this purpose. Ex-
periments by both the B. & @. and
Pennsylvania railroads have proven
very satisfactory and the indications
are that the telephone will ultimately
entirely supplant the telegraph in
the operation of railroads.

THE recommendation of Prof. Barbe
that teachers in the Normal Schools
be elected to serve during satisfactory
service instead of annually, has been
adopted. 1t is a commendableSmo

The custom heretofore Of electing all

less unrest and uncertainty that has
not helped the schools The move
might be called civil service reform

down and likewise every one that
is boosting him, who are seeking
public office.
Billy Potts, who has been a can
didate for the nomination for the
office of county clerk ever since he
was defeated two years ago, has
withdrawn from the race. The
Pie-maker said last week that
Potts would bitterly regret the
death Of the late A. T. Ambrose,
and it is already very apparent.
The funny thing about the whole
matter, too, is that Potts is now
helping the Humes push and is
also fighting Van de Vanter, who
gave him his nomination two years
ago. When seen this week by the
Pie-maker, he said, Il could not
run for office and do business at
the sane time, and, as Mr.. Diller
has gone North | am compelled to
stick right to business, although [
am going to try to help my friends
through next fall. My precinct, if
[ have any say in the matter, will
not be for J. M. Frink for gov
ernor. [ am going to support
Ellis Morrison for clerk, and, in

Ex-State Senator G. W. Dorr
was hob-nobbing in Seattle this
week, and rumor has it that he has
a weather eye on the nomination
for attorney general. The nomi-
nation for that place almost went
to the northwest four years ago,
when A. W. Frater was candidate
for the place, but for the sake of
harmony it was shifted to the
Southwest, and e. w. Ross of
Cowlitz was nominated. Dorr is a
good strong man and has many
warm friends who will help him
out in case he is candidate for
either that or any other place,
reasonably speaking.

Hon. Allen Weir's congenial

cal waters Of Seattle this week.
Rumor has it that he believes

ton for governor, and in that case
he, Weir, will be candidate for
secretary of state, aposition, which
he filled SO creditably once during
territorial days. Mr.. Weir is a

be true, he will give the man that
gets the nomination good hard

this week. "To squabble for a
place like that, as one will have to
in order to get it, belittles the
place, in my opinion, and I there
fore do not propose to squabble
for the nomination. [ am not a
candidate"
Apropos the announcement of J.
L. Ronald to stand for the Demo
cratic nomination as one of the
members Of the Lower House of
Congress for this state, Jimmy
McElroy will at an early date
announce himself as an opposition
candidate. Ronald has been en-
dorsed by Col. Lewis, and Noel
roy expects to be endorsed by Lee
Hart and Col. Alden J. Times.
"McElroy is going to win," said a
well known Democrat one day this
week. "He has been saving his
money for just such scrap as the
one that is coming, and he will
turn it loose at the proper time y
1t is said, on good authority at
that, that McElroy has won not
less than $4,000 in the past six
months at cards and that he has
soaked every cent of it in the
banks and will blow himself good
and hard to get to congress this
fall Goodwin has nothing to say
to this save, ''let him spend his
money, | am sure he can find
plenty of places and men to spend
it on, and, it is always good to see
that much money get into circula-
ton. He will, however, meet me
when he reaches the ballot box

my shop in my feeble attempt to
spoil some of his we'll laid plans,

The Wall street Market Takes on n

NEW YORK. Aug. 11.-AIthough the
week has witnessed a numbsr Of important
events. none of them has exerted any ap-
preciable influence upon the market for
securities. Chief among ths recent devel-
opments was the instantaneous success OF
the British war loan in this country and
the subsequent export OF $500 900 in 90 d
The news from China has been in the main
favorable, but has not influenced eenti-
ment either here or abroad sufficiently 10
affect dealings in securities or their prices.
Both the detailed and preliminary railway
traffic returns published this week have
been in the main all that could be desired.
The technical position of the security
market is unouestionably very strong,
otherwise it would not have withstood tdis
protracted midsummer duilness without
a noteworthy decline The amount of Sc
curities that is being carried by brokers'
is unusually small, and is, according TO all
accounts, being steadily reduced by mod r
ate investment purchases The weekly
statement of averages Of the associated
banks was surprise because in spite of
the heavy exports of gold on Wednesday
and Thursday which should have counted
in the statement, for two or three days,
the banks actually showed a small in
crease in the item OF specie.
The decrease in legal tenders is not
large, SO that the net change in reserve is
a decrease of less than $500 600. The largest
change Is the increase in loans, which
might have occurred Incidental to the
placing OF a part Of the British exchequer
bonds in this market. The deposit item is,
as usual, inconsistent with the two changes
already noted, the increase being 81 600 600
less than is called for. The net result Is
G decrease of only 81. O00,0 900 in the surplus
reserve. AS the statement is made up on
falling averages SO far as the specie is
concerned, and further amounts of gold
will, without doubt, be shipped next week,
the statement that will be published next
Saturday will, in all probability, make a
radically different showing from that of
today. II is hardly probable that the oper-
ations referred to will affect the money
market decidedly. for the Treasury will
begin next week to make heavy payments
on account of pensions, and besides, gold is
being received in large amounts from Aus
tralia and the mines tributary to Pacific
Coast points
Today's market was in the main Of a
holiday character. There were noteworthy
movements though, in Sugar Refining and
American Tobacco. A further advance in
Sugar Refining was in response 10 the
manipulation that has been going on in
that stock all week, while the rise III
American Tobacco was attributed to the
covering of shorts. There was further
break Of Ii points in National Lead pre-
ferred, which is as yet unexplained. The
common stock was also lower on light
transactions. AS compared with the final
prices OF last Saturday the list is irregu-
lar.

(From the Detroit Free Press)
The singing sands OF Arabia are stretches
Of sand. sometimes on a hillside of the in

tinct musical note Walking through tn m,
stirring them with a stick. or in any way
agitating their particles will cause the
sound. which continues some seconds. Sci
entiflc men have been quite at loss 10
account for so singular phenomenon. and
have suggested many wild explanations.
The problem is complicated by sever al
curious circumstances in connection with
the sand. II has been ascsrtaiEed. for in
stances, that If carried way IN bags the
sand loses its musical power, but retains
it if transported in glass vessels. Wett.ng
the sand while in an artificial receptacle
destroys its power OF producing tone. but
rain has no such effect. since as soon as the
sand is dry it is as sonorous as before.
The singing sand is found In no less than
twenty-six places on the eastern coast OF
the United States and in al least two on
the Pacific.
