: Excitement at Shenandoah.

SHENANDOAH. Sept. g. This town was in a state of excitement, for several hours yesterday. Sheriff Bed }dal and half a dozen deputies arrived in town about o'clock and attempted to arrest the strikers who have been taking coal from mine breaches on the Girard estate. The men resisted arrest, and the sheriff appealed to General Gobin for assistance. The general or idered the Second City troop to the scene to protect the sheriff in the dis charge of his duty. Meantime mob of about 5000 people had gathered in the vicinity of the breaches With the protection which the presence of the troops afforded the sheriff's men ar rested three coal pickers, but the rest succeeded in escaping. The prisoners were taken to the Pennsylvania rail- road station surrounded by troops and followed by the mob, hissiDG and jeer- ing.

 In cities where no garbage boxes are permitted in the alleys, and where the garbage and general wastes are taken from the householders' recepta- cles direct to the collecting wagons, both the garbage and the general rub- bish will be found to contain a larger percentage of matter from which rev. enue may be obtained than in cities where foot scavengers are permitted to pick over the boxes and extract from them whatever articles of value they may be able to find.

TROOPS CALLED OUT
Strikers Lawless Tn Lacka-
 wanna County.
SHERIFF IS POWERLESS TO CONTROL
Arrest of DisorderIy at Shenandoah Accomplished With the Aid of Military-EIeven Jailed at
 WiIIiamst0yvn.

SCRANTON, Pa, Sept 23.- Governor Stone this morning ordered out the Thirteenth regiment of Scranton to suppress the lawlessness of the coal strikers in Lackawanna county.
 His action is the result of an appeal last night from Sheriff Schadt, who de ciared that he was powerless to stem the tide of mob violence which was ris- ing hour by hour.
 The troops reached here shortly after daybreak
 When Sheriff Schadt first asked for troops, Governor Stone told him to or ganize posse from the citizens. Schadt replied that he could not and that he must have the troops.
 The call for troops followed day of wild excitement-a day of running fights, of bloodshed, of sieges to houses where women and little children cow cred in corners while the men, whose only offense was that they wanted to earn bread for the starving ones, stood their ground in the shadow of the win dows with loaded Winchesters at their shoulders.
 All day long and into the night the rage of the miners burst, now here, now there.
 Innocent men were felled. Others were left for dead in the streets.
 Workmen were attacked, houses stoned and company officers held up.
 Tn desperation, after laboring since midnight Sunday to quell the disturb ances the sheriff issued a proclamation calling upon the strikers to disperse and preserve order.
 For an hour this was effective, but at the time the workers were returning home, between and z o'clock last night, the riot burst forth again and ragged more fiercely than before.
 Workers were stoned, dubbed and beaten
 A mob attacked the Raymond colliery and washery, ripped down the stock ade and broke the steam pipes. A train of workmen being taken from one place to another was fired upon with revolvers and stoned.
 Attacks were made on the Saylorville collieries, and the steam pipes were blown up with dynamite.
 At Priceburg several deputies were fired upon while trying to disperse a mob, and they returned the fire. One man was so severely injured that he may die.
 Near Priceburg Engene Deity was found unconscious and fatally hurt from a terrible beating. He had walked over from Greenridge to call upon a young woman.
 Sixteen workers were attacked on their way to the Johnson colliery pear Scranton. Another attack was made upon workers at the Bulls Head col liery at Dunmore.
 At Olyphant the houses of number of nonunion men were stoned and the windows smashed.

EMOTIONS BY WIRELESS.
1t Will Be Impossible to Tell What One Really Feels by the New
 Photography.

They can do a great deal nowadays by means of electricity, but what IS in store for our descendants one we'll nigh dreads to think, says the Lady's Pictorial. Will anyone be like hu- man being at all, or shall not those who come after us rather resemble some contrivance of Edison in the guise of humanity?
 One of the latest discoveries in con- nection with this mysterious force is that the emotions may be to some extent controlled or excited by elec- tricity, and as electric waves can be invisibly transmitted through the air to any given point, it becomes obvious that a complete revolution of our characters and our manners must re- suit. if the scientist who is experi- menting in this direction opens the door to the influence of the mind by means of an electrical instrument.
 For example, what is to prevent A from wirelessly directing electric waves in the direction of 5 in order to stimulate the passion of love? May not c, too, who loathes D because she has defiected from her the affection Of E, secretly use electrical means to produce hatred in Els heart?
 It is possible to imagine tricks be- ing played also with what one may call the anger stop, but, per contra, it may likewise be possible to soothe the savage breast by the same means. and thus insure the return home of husbands in excellent tempers, and the enthusiasm of audiences whatever be the nature of the entertainments provided at the theaters.
 But how will anyone ever know what they really feel if this theory proves correct and is made practical? Some amusing complications can be readily imagined among even a few friends whose emotions had been ar- fificiaIIv DrodlIped

PRONUNCIATION OF "sT LOUIS
Opinion of an Authority on Much Dis cussed Name Prefers "St Lew-iss."

Opinion of an Authority on Much Dis
 cussed Name Prefers ESt Lew--iss. Worlds Fair, St Louis, Sept B. Many inquiries have been received as to the proper pronunciation of St Louis. The press quite generally has discussed the subject and the sugges- ton of legislative action has been made. The matter has therefore been submitted to Prof F. Louis Soldan, the superintendent of public schools of St Louis, who is considered an authority on the subject Prof Soldan says: In answer to your question in regard to the pronunciation of the name of our city. I will say that I prefer the pro nunciation St Lew-iss. My individual opinion is based on the following facts:
 "The French pronunciation, of course, is St Loo-i,' with the final s not sounded, and somewhat of an ac- cent on the last syllable. In the lead ing authorities Webster, the Century, Lippincott's Gazetteer-both pronunci- ations are given as allowable, with the pronunciation St Lew-iss' placed first, which usually indicates that the pro- nunciation placed first is preferred Hence the weight of authority, as far as it goes, seems to be in favor of St Lew-iss.'
 Second. The common usage in this city. among the people that have lived here for a long time, seems to be St Lew-iSs.'
 Third It is q general tendency of the English language, and especially as used in America, to assimilate the pro- nunciation of words derived from for elgn languages. I remember that pr McCosh of Princeton university, one of the great representatives of an older generation of scholars, pronounced the word 'oblige' as if it were spelled 'obleege.' It was evident that in his day the French pronunciation of the word prevailed. It has been superseded by the pronunciation now existing. The word tomato has passed through the successive stages of usage of 'to-mah- to- .to-mat-to' and 'to-ma-to' In short. the tendency seems to be to pronounce foreign word or name, when first in troduced, in accordance with the orig inal pronunciation, and to change 1t gradually to a pronunciation which is more idiomatic.n '

process, and commands market price of from PA to 312 cents pound. On this basis of yield of three per cent. of grease at three cents a pound, the total yield from a ton of garbage would be worth $1so. For the pur- poses of this article, these figures may be taken as a maximum, as both the yield of grease and the market price of the same are subject to changes.
 The amount of fertilizer base which may be obtained from ton of garbage,
 as determined by several different reduction processes, will show an av- craze yield of 15 per cent. This prod- uct, known as tankage, and from which the grease has been expressed, IS worth, in a general way, four dollars per ton, or 60 cents per tonof garbage. On the above estimates, which are cer- tainly conservative, we have as sources of revenue from an average ton of garbage the following results
 Grease ................... Sl.oo Fertilizing base. 50 < These figures, it may be stated, con- clusively show that garbage, when dis posed of by the reduction process may be made to pay both the cost of collec- tion and disposition and a profit be- sides. And, without even the last- mentioned item being considered at all. It would not seem to be wisdom or economy on the part of any city to adopt the process of incineration, which is one Of all outlay with no re- turns, for this particular class of ma- terial.
 Upon the proper separation of garbage depends the. complete and working success of any modern method of garbage disposal and, including, of course, the economic and sanitary dis position of all the material which comes under the heading of city wastes. These, exclusive of garbage, contain also many articles which have a money and therefore market value. They. are obtained by being picked

located. Modern mechanical science .has solved the problem of grease ex- traction without making offensive odors; it has also provided for drying and otherwise treating the resulting *ankage, with equal success.
 The principal difficulty now lies in the manner in which the plant may be conducted.
 If the garbage be delivered fresh, daily, and is not permitted to accnmu- late at the factory beyond each day's supply and with order, system and cleanliness rigidly enforced, the mod ern reduction plant need be no more of a nuisance to a community than would be a steam grist mill. This means that, in district given over to manufacturing purposes, no good req son could be given why the reduction plant should not be admitted. I am aware, however, that there are re- duction plants which emit unpleasant odors, but they are not up to date plants. They are wanting, either in construction or in hemanner in which they are operated. And it is because of these shortcomings that this meth cd of garbage disposition is regarded by many as either an unqualified fail ,nre or as being still in the experiment. ll stage
 Right here I deem it proper to say, By way of explanation, that I am not advocating the reduction process of garbage disposition as against incin- Aration, for the reason that do not Rlass garbage, which forms compara- lively a small portion of the waste material of a city, as being combusti- ble matter. My position is-and am by no means seeking to carry water on both shoulders, as the old saying goes that the economic incineration of city refuse must be, necessarily, con fined to that portion of it which can be so treated. Garbage with TO to 80 per cent. of water in its composition cannot be economically burned. But, as a much larger percentage of a city's refuse matter embraces what may be termed worthless combustible mate rial, it still leaves an ample field for the incineration method and for it's de- .veIopment along the lines of utilizing these otherwise worthless wastes in the production of both light and power for municipal purposes. am simply applying the principle of utilization to both methods, but also keeping in mind that the matter of sanitary dis position demands at all times our first consideration.
 In this connection, too, desire to repeat here what I have before stated fhrough other channels of publication, that in my opinion the ideal plant for the sanitary and economic disposition of city wastes is yet to be built; and that when it is built it will be plant combining both the reduction and in cineration processes. Such a plant should be so constructed as to be adapt- edfor burning as fuel the combustible material. This would greatly reduce the expenses of operating the plant and add correspondingIy to it's earn- ings.
 Ordinary city garbage, as shown by tests made in various cities through out the country, when treated by the reduction process, will produce an av- craze yield of three percent. of grease in weight. This product is. obtained AE what. is known as the thanking
