 him that would be sufficient to war rant any other action
 Senator R. A. Buckner, chairman of the senate committee, and member of the joint committee before which has been heard all the testimony re- lating to the management of the pen itentiary, on the floor of the senate, made known the conclusions he has reached concerning the charges against the management of the in- whole question: beginning at the very beginning.
 In conclusion the committee states that, while there has been developed in the course of most searching in- vestigation some few irregularities in procedure on the part of the board and officials of the penitentiary, there is nothing whatever that calls for serious condemnation on the part of the senate and house of representa- tives. On the contrary, considering the diversity of interests, and the wide field covered by the penitentiary management, the state is to be con- graduated upon most careful and business-like management of the af- fairs of the penitentiary. which has made that institution entirely self instead of pecuniary bur. den upon the state

A New Hornets Nest.

When, on that September day in
1880 Lord CORVALLIS met in battle the
patriots of Mecklenburg, Rowan and
the adjoining country, he realized that
he had indeed stirred up hornets

for liberty and the energy that backed
it in those trying days Charlotte has
pursued the paths of peace until to-
day she is veritable hornets nest
of enterprise and industry. Her
thrift and energy are evidenced upon
every side, and the buzz of machinery
has taken the place of the snap of the
old fiintlock. Factories and schools
and hundreds of manufacturing plants
bear witness that she is still a hornets

A Substitute for Coal
To Cost 81. so a Ton.

DIR. Henry w. Morrow, a Wilminetor
chemist, who has made valuable inyen
lions in the manufacture of woof
hbre, recently gave a public exhibi
ton OF his now artificial fuel in his
laboratory at Third and Market
streets, and it was successful in every
particular.
The correspondent of the Philadel
phia Public Ledger saw the fuel
moulded into small bricks and placed
in an ordinary cook stove, where with.
in a few minutes there was a fire at
white heat
The fuel is made of ordinary earth
treated with chemical process.
DIR. Morrow used bricks made in a
hand mould, but estimates what their
cost on large scale will be at $3.50
ton, with good profit.
The fuel for ordinary domestic pur-
poses, he says, will burn from four to
five hours longer than coal, and under
forced draught, such as on steamships,
locomotives and in industrial estab-
lishments, it will burn from two to
three hours longer than coal.
Any kind of earth, except sand, will
do. Some of the bricks burned were
made of earth taken from the yard of
Dr. Morrow's home at Ninth and West
streets, some from along the bank of
the Christiana river, and from other
places about the city.
The bricks for domestic use weigh
about three ounces, of which per
cent. is coal tar, 80 per cent. clay or
earth, the remainder sawdust.
The coal tar is introduced so that
the bricks may lie outside of build
ing, like ordinary coal, and can not be
damaged by water or weather
DR.. Morrow showed some bricks that
had lain in basin of water for two
days, and they were as solid as when
moulded.
The sawdust is used, so that it will
burn out in few minutes, and make
the brick porous and admit the heat,
but the dust is not a necessary in
gredient, as some bricks were burned
recently which did not contain saw
dust.
Coal slack can also be used, and DR..
Morrow burned some bricks which
contained about per cent. of that ma
terial
The manufactured fuel, while burn
ing, throws off no gas or odor, but
burns with a bright blue flame of in
tense heat. 1t burns up completely,
there being no clinkers, everything in
the composition crumbling into fine
dust after passing through the fire.
The fuel also cleans itself, the outside
peeling off and falling into dust as fast
as consumed.
DR.. Morrow says that the fuel can be
used without the least damage to the
! tubes of boilers or crown sheets.

NE OF the most useful deycl-
opmcnts of the modern IL
~ brary system is the travel
ing library. which carries to
residents of small localities the cdu-
cational advantages formerly within
tho reach Of residents of large cities
only. 1t is not complimentary to
Pennsylvania that il shouid have been
the last but one of all the states to
adopt this bcnchccnt municipal sys-
tenn, nor is it rreditabc that the FUR
thcrance of this purpose has up to
this tim" had to depend wholly uron
private hcncvoencc.
In 1Sn9 a state travelling libraries
commission was established, but no
maintenance. The members of the
commission were determined. however,
not to let The opportunity pass without
ondcaNoring to prove The beneficial!
character of the work entrusted to
them ana they raised among their
personal friends the sum of $2,S00
with which to inaucuratc the move
ment The commission purchased n
large number of books. boxes in which
they could be conveyed from place To
place, all the necessary stationery and
blank forms. and have already placed
twelve of such libraries in various
parts of the state. They desire to put
at least one hundred more. within the
course of the next two years, in vari-
Gus localities which will otherwise he
without the privileges of books. The
commission have not received Il penny
of compensation nor even their travel
ing expenses TO aud from the various
meetings which have been held al the
State library in Harrisburg. Their
entire work in this matter has been
in the nature nf il donation: and while
they do not ask for pay for themselves
it is unjust that they should not only
have to pay their own expenses while
serving the state, but also act as
hat -passers in order to get funds
wherewth to do the states work.
This commission has asked the
present legislature for an appropra-
Il year. to enable it to carry on its
labors on scale sufficiently ample
and effective to reach the ma jority of
bookess citizens in the smaller COM
munitieS of the commonwealth. The
request is modest. proper and timely
1t is not an application for the hcn"-
fit of any local institution or individ-
ual. The travelling libraries system
benefits every town and village in
the state, and equally concerns all
counties. SO far as we know this re-
quest has no powerful political inllu-
ence at its back, is not calculated to
aid any poriy or faction and is before
the legislature fatty on its merits. 1t
is up to the Legislature to say what
shall be done without.
