A Nasty Practice.

A nasty practice is what the Chicago
1ntcr Ocean calls the pastiag of re-
peated layers of wall paper, one upon
another. thus covering up the filth and
germs of disease that may be propa-
gated in the very absorbent and de-
caying mass of flour paste, paper,
animal glue. colors, etc.
They give opinions of eminent
health officers and sanitarans, urging
that such practice should be stopped
by legal enactment and also take oc-
casion to say that these sanitarians
recommend Alabastine as a durable,
pure and sanitary coating for walls.
The Inter Ocean says: "This is a
very important question, and, as it
costs nothing to avoid this danger,
why take any chances?"
How much of the alarming spread
of smallpox and other diseases may be
due to unsanitary wall coverings?

GERMAN ELECTRIC RAILWAYS.
Failure Of Electricity on Long Freight
Lines.

Herr Won Thielen, Prussian minister
of public works, speaking before the
Diet recently on the railway budget.
referred to the application of electrici-
~ to broad-gauge, long-distance rail-
ways. He reviewed the recent expert
ments on the Wannsee and Seossen
roads, and said that traffic on the for
mer, which is a Berlin suburban line,
had been abandoned. because electrici-
ty as II motive power was twice as eX
pensive as steam and less secure from
accidents.
The insulation was never wholly per-
feet, continued the speaker, and he was
therefore convinced that the high
power. long train system could not be
generally adopted.
The authorities We're negotiating,
however, with an electrical company to
introduce electrical traction on all
trains between Grosslichterfelde, seven
miles from Berlin. and the capital
with prospects of better success.
Referring to the high velocity attain
ed during the single car experiments
on the military road between Berlin
and Seossen. where speed of 100
miles an hour was reached. the minis
ter of public works said he hoped for
increased speed through the strength
ening of roadbeds. though he was still
doubtful as to whether high speed cleo
trical traction was profitable. He said
it must be confined to passenger traffic.

of the ponies are not very large and

Any one who has travelled in Russia
will know the pale, tawny shade of the
native pony. almost lion-like in color
1t is also the commonly met hue of
the little Scandinavian horses driven
in Norway almost exclusively and
much seen, too, in Sweden and Fin
land. The skin dyes brown and a
lovely jet black most successfully
and is so strong that it is uncommonly
suitable for roughwear wraps. Nor is
it outrageously expensive. A Russian
blouse made of it comes to eight and
half guineas.
The Russian calf makes very pretty
snow-white coats, tufted with black
and charming revers. cuffs, ties and
muffs for cloth redingotes. To some
eyes this pelt will resemble miniver,
says the London Mail. but there is a
huge monetary difference between it

HAD THE SOUVENIR CRAZE.

One of the Things That Marked the
Mckinley Funeral Procession.
The desire for souvenirs upon the
narI of the large crowds lined along
The railroad tracks at every point was
a distinctive feature of the Mckinley
funeral train. The most popular of all
methods adopted was the placing of
coins on the tracks so that the train
might pass over them, smashing fiat
the pieces of money as mark OF
Identification in years to come. This
practice was not confined to any par
ticular point or crowd. but was indulg
ed in generally along the route.
The mutilated coins were afterward
gathered up by their owners and dis
played with much pride. Coins of diff
ferent denominations aggregating at
least several hundred dollars were
strewn along the track at the Union
station. Even these relic hunters
seemed to appreciate the occasion and
surroundings. and instead of making
a rush for their property as soon as
the train had passed. waited until it
was out of sight before picking up the
crushed coins.
At Roup Station. says the Pitts
burg Post, wealthy resident of the
Shadyside district placed $40 gold
piece upon the rail. The approach of
the train started to shake it off. but it
managed to remain long enough to
have just small portion of it nipped
off as if done by knife. The owner
is quite a collector of souvenirs and
oddities and when he picked up his
coin he stated that it would occupy
the most prominent and conspicuous
place in his large collection.

INTEREST is GROWING.
Evangelistic Meeting Largely At
tended Last Might.

Interest in the evangelistic services,
which are being conducted in the Penn
Avenue Baptist church is growing
daily. Last night the main auditorium
was crowded and Rev. DR.. Haynes
powerful sermon on "Resurrection"
effected several conversions.
The doctor chose for his text, l Cor,
Xv:44, ut is sown a natural body; it
is raised a spiritual body. There is Il
natural body, and there is a spiritual
body" The doctor said that the great
question which was asked by Job, 'If
man die. shall he live again?" has
perpleXed the human minds of every
age since. 1t can't be answered by
science, by history or literature, and
man is left to depend absolutely upon
the Word of God for a reply.
The Word Of God, DR.. Haynes said,
states plainly and clearly that there
will be a life after the grave, and that
Immortality is not fgment of the
imagination. He declared that the
spirit lives after death in a spiritual
body. and that there are no such things
as disembodied spirits. He quoted a
number of passages from Scripture to
prove this contention.
Belief in the resurrection of man. he
declared to be the keystone in the arch
of Christian faith and asked how I'M
saved souls could expect to pass an
existence in the realms of the blessed
after death.

WILL VETO RESOLUTION.
Recorder Doesn't Approve Of Paying
Back the Fines Collected from
Members of Eureka Club.

1t is understood that Recorder Con-
nell will veto the resolution passed by
councils two weeks ago directing the
city solicitor to confess Judgment in
favor of Attorney John j. Murphy for
Il sum equal to the amount of the
fines collected by Police Magistrate
Howe from Charles Major and the
other persons arrested with him in the
Eureka club house. at the corner of
I.ackawanna and Adams avenues raid
ed some months ago by the police.
Major was fined for keeping II dis
orderly house and selling liquor with
out a license, while the thirty odd
males and females arrested in the
place were charged with being in
mates of u disorderly house, and We're
also fined. Major gave bail OH the
charge of maintaining IL gambling
house and was acquitted on this charge
by n jury.
Objection was made by Attorney
Murphy to violations of the law in the
trial of the other cases before Magis-
trate Howe, and court overruled the
decision of the Magistrate in all the
cases. While there was nothing in
the opinion specifically directing the

The Russian could speak English

admiration for America. He said that
he was a resident of Kief, city in the
southern part of Russia, and that he
had young American physician as his
assistant.
His name is Clearwater" he said,
land he comes from a place that you
call, let me see-Scranton."
The lady and her daughter explained,
with astonishment, that they knew DR..
Clearwater in this city, several years
ago, and told the Russian their names.
The mention of the name caused the
married American lady to interest her.
self in the conversation, and to make
the still more surprising announcement
that she was born in Hawley and went
to school with the young lady's sister.
She, too, knew Scranton, and had heard
of DR.. Clearwater, Thus was reserve
thrown off, and the rest of the journey
spent by the party as if they had al
ways been old friends.
