LOUTH.
On the morning of Sept. 8, shortly
before o'clock, an attempt was made
to blow up the '9S monument in front
of the county courthouse in Dundalk.
The monument, which was erected by
public subscription, in the Centenary
year, at a cost of 1850, stands in the
center of the Market square, and con-
sists Of large allegorical figure stand
ing upon pedestal Of chiselled stone,
the whole being about 20 feet high.
Since its erection no attempt had been
made to interfere with it, though at
the time Of the proclamation of King
Edward VII. there were rumors that
it was to be removed by the loyalists.
The present attempt was ludicrously
unsuccessful. It appears that dyna-
mite cartridge was inserted behind
one Of the four provincial shields
which form projections on the corners

NOT HEREDITARY

In the main, consumption
is not hereditary; it is infectious.
People are too afraid OF heredi-
ty; better not think Of the sub
iect at all. Infection occurs
continually.
Low vital force is hereditary;
which gives consumption its
chance. And infection plants
it.
Between the two, the crop
is big one: about one-sixth
Of the human race, SO far as IS
known.
We suppose it needn't be 5
per cent, if people would take
fair care and SCOTS emulsion
of cod-liver oil.
The care saves life in al
ways; the emulsion is specially
aimed at the lungs, beside it:
general food-effect.

China,s Coal Fields.

China contains some of the richest
coal deposits in the world. Last fall
Prof. Drake, Of Tien-tsin, visited the
coal fields in the province of Shansi,
which were examined by Baron Won
Richtofen in 1870, and found that they
are of immense extent. The coal area
is said to be greater than that of Penn
sylvania, and the anthracite coal alone
contained in these fields has been esti-
mated at 630,0OO,O0O tons. The Shansi
coal beds are so thick and lie so uni
formly in horizontal position that the
practicability has been suggested of
running long lines Of railway tunnels
through the beds so that the cars can
be loaded in the mines all ready for dis
tant transportation.
