Carried Down With Ice.

Fishing creek went oat with a
rush yesterday evening. 1t went
out so suddenly that two children
who attempted to cross 1t In a john
boat came near drowning. A man
by the name of Cutshaver, of New
Martiusville, and who Is employed
on the Southside, has been In the
habit of crossing the creek In a
john boat and upon returning from
work that evening he found that
the boat had been taken TO the
other side during the day.
Two small boys were in the boat
playing and he asked them to
bring the boat across the creek.
They cut the boat loose from the
bank and started for the opposite
shore when the Ice in the creek
commenced to break up and before
they could reach the other side they
were carried down the stream at
rapid rate. The boys were rescued
a short distance further down.

The first day of the New Year
1893 promising nothing In the way
of large social events but 1t Is ru'
mored that several of the more hos
pitable homes will be opened on
that day and a return to the old
genial custom of calling and renew
Ing social acquaintance that had
only grown lukewarm In the inter
vening time will probably be re-
vived on a small scale. This time
honored custom Is TOO pleasant to
be allowed 10 tall into disuse. By
the united forts of a few tacttul
society leaders New Years calling
could not only be revived but firm
ly established and thus make the
first day of the year one of the
brightest and attractive social days
OF the season, with updoubtful
power to p omote sociability and
general intercourse of recognized
standing.

"When Il man gets used to drinking

water in the world that tastes so good.
Most of the people in New Orleans

an abundant supply Of water caught
from the clouds. the purest and best

The winter rainfall alone is used, the

CHICACOANS SEE GOV STONE.
cIergymen and Business Men Appeal
to Him to Act Regarding
Coal Strike.

Harrisburg, Oct 8.-A delegation OF
Chicago clergymen and business men
called upon Governor Stone at the
executive department yesterday after
noon and urged him to take prompt
action to settle The coal strike. Thu
delegation was composed Of Rabbi
Emil G. Hirsch, chairman; Revs. M.
J. Dorney, NJ. Edward Fawsett, H. At
wood Percival, L. G. Kindred, Leander
Turney, Jenkin Lloyd Jones, Sydney
Strong, P. A. White and C.. r. Holden,
w. B. Corwin, Lawrence z. McGinn,
James McAndrews, DR.. J. G. Gray, NJ.
G. Holding and DR.. c. A. Young.
Rev. Hirsch said the situation in
the strike region was without a par
allel in the history Of the country,
and that the people in the west were
in sympathy with the movement TO
effect a settlement between the oper-
ators and miners. The party had no
suggestion to offer to end the strike,
but simply called upon the governor
to take such action as in his judg-
ment would bring the trouble to an
end.
Father Dorney said the delegation
came as friends Of the state OF Penn
sylvania to ask the executive to adj
wise with them as to the best means
Of ending the strike. The priest ex-
planned that he resides in the stock
yards district CT Chicago and knew
something Of the suffering caused by
strikes. The coal strike is going 70
cause untold misery among the poor
Of Chicago and other large cities OF
the country If it Is not speedily set
tied. All legal measures, added
Father Dorney. should be taken by
the governor TO end the strike. The
labor agitation mas become a social
revolution. The settlement OF this
strike in 4 speedy way viii stop the
headlong plunging toward revolution
that the labor organizations are TAX
ing today.
At the conclusion Of the priests
remarks the governor said he was
glad to meet the delegation, and the
visitors left the department
The delegation came here in a spe
cial car and started yesterday after
noon for Chicago.

Philadelphia, Oct. S.-The officers
Of the state national guard, having
decided that the situation in the coal
region was not so serious as to ne
cessitate rushing the soldiers from
their various local headquarters to

move them yesterday. Governor
Stones order for the entire militia Of
the state to be sent to the anthracite

different commands shall proceed
Therefore, By this afternoon the 5000

Of the Grand Army of the Republic
and their friends were entertained
yesterday by a parade given in honor
Of the naval veterans and by a num-
Der Of reunions held in the big assem-.
bly, tents at Camp Roosevelt. The
weather was threatening during the
early morning, but the sun burst
through the clouds about noon, so
that with the mild temperature which
prevailed there was no reason for
complaint on that score. The attend
ance had steadily increased during
yesterday, and last night the city was
crowded as it has been only on very
rare occasions.
The naval parade Of the forenoon
was not as large as many that have
been seen in Washington, but 1t was
in every way interesting. The vet
Grams Of the navy each appeared %
be an embodiment Of much of the ma
tons recent history, and every squad
OF them was an object Of interested
observation. They were generally old
men, and many bore evidences OF
wounds received in battle. In strik.
ing contrast to them were the young
men of all the branches OF the present
service, who marched with them, as
an escort Of homer, IS 1t were. This
escort included representatives Of
both the land and naval forces and
they elected mucl favorable comment
for their fine appearance as men, as
they did for the excellent discipline
displayed by them.
