New Trial Refused.

Judge Newcomb, of Scranton. has
filed an opinion denying the motion for
new trial in the case of Joseph Ste
venson VS.. the Ebervale Coal Company
and others. The case was tried for
the second time few weeks ago and a
verdict for S23 900 rendered in favor of
the plaintiff.
The attorneys for the defense moved
for new trial on the ground that the
verdict was excessive, there being no
competent testimony on the value of
the property alleged to have been de-
stroyed. This contention is dismissed
by the court. The defense also contend
ed that certain jurors had been tamper-
ed with, but the allegation was shown
by testimony to be groundless.
The defense, it is understood, will
appeal the case to the Supreme court.
The case grows out of the alleged
pollution of Nescopeck creek and its
tributaries with cum and sulphur
water from the mines in this region.

Among certain people there is
strong idea that nothing is worse for
dogs than salt, but as matter of fact,
when administered in small quantities,
it materially assists the process of di-
gestion. There is no doubt, however,
that to give dogs or any other animals
broth or pot liquor in which salt pork
or bacon has been boiled would be al
most equivalent to giving them small
dose of poison. The use of salt among
horses, cattle and sheep is advocated
by the highest veterinary authorities.
Pigs, on the contrary, are extremely
susceptible to the poisonous influence
of the agent, and experiments have
been made which had, after small
doses regularly administered, fatal re-
suits Habitually, as Il matter of course,
all animals consume certain portion
of salt, as it exists in certain proper
tons in most articles of food.-London

A HUMAN FOREST.
Eow Indian Tribesmen Succeed In
Escaping the Police.

EScnptnE thc romeo.
Some of the Indian tribes over which
we rule give usya great deal of trouble,
notably the Mahsuds. The Mahsuds,
however, are not by any means the
worst of the Indian robber tribes, the
unenviable distinction probably falling
to the Bills, who are the cleyerest
scoundrels in the world, both in their
methods of acquiring other peoples
property and in evading pursuit.
They are very proud of their skill in
pilfering and openly boast of it. One
of them once told British officer that
he could steal the blanket from under
him and was promptly challenged to
show his ability. That night when the
officer was fast asleep the Bhil robber
cut hole in his tent, crept noiselessly
in and gently tickled the hands and
feet CT the sleeping man. The officer
stirred uneasily and turned over. In
this way the Bhil was able to pull the
blanket out n little way. BY repeating
his performance he finally succeeded
in "coaXing" the blanket completely
from under the sleeper.
When engaged in his nefarious little
games, the Bhil wears hardly any
clothing, and his 1.-THE body is rubbed
with oil to facilitate escape from any
would be captors, When hotly pursued
by the British troops, the robbers make
use of Il very clever device. They CON
ceal their scant clothing under their
small round shields and scatter them
about TO resemble stones or powders;
then, picking up few twigs-if there
are any to be had-they assume all
sorts of grotesque attitudes, their al
most fleshless limbs silhouetted against
the dark night sky closely resemblil =
the charred limbs of tree. Absolute
~ motionless, they hold their positions
till the enemy has passed them.
In this way British subaltern in
charge of Il party sent to capture some
Bills was considerably startled one
evening. The pursuit had completely
lost sight of the robbers, and finally
the party drew rein by a clump of
gnarled and bent tree trunks, tired and
hot from their hard eXertions. The Of
ficer in charge took off his hat and
placed it on the end of broken limb,
when instantly there was a wild scream
of laughter, and the tree trunks sud
denly came to life and vanished in the
darkness.--London Express.

voice, which, as every one knows, Is a

famous not only for her beautiful sing
ing but for her personal charm. This is
what the Boston Globe says Of her:
while charmingly fresh and sweet,
her voice is full and rich in tone, while
her execution is wonderfully delicate. The
audience was so carried away by it's en-
thusiasm that it could not wait, in three
or four instances, until the vocalist had
finished her selection before giving ex-
preston to its delight. After each num-
Der she received repeated and vcciferous

chorus and audience, in absolute unani-
nifty"
