Two Kinds of Dreariness.

You hear often from car window OBJ
servers Of the 'dreary'' desert, the
hopeless" the "cheerless'' desert, but
the desert deserves none Of these adjec-
t1ves. It is dreadful, if you wish, in
the way in which it Furnishes the igno-
rance and presumption Of those who
know not the signs of thirst; it some
times is awful in it's passions of dust,
torrents, heat; it is even monotonous
to those who love only the life of
crowded ctties-but it is never dreary
or cherries. Hopelessness may well
apply to the deserts Of Mulberry street
and Smoky hollow, with their choked
and heated tenements, their foul odors
their swarms Of crowded and hideous
human life, but the desert Of the arid
land is eternally hopeful, smiling,
strong, rejoicing in itself. The desert
is never morbid in it's adversely. On
the other hand, it is calm and sweet
and clean-the cleanest Of all land.
Not till man comes, bringing his ugly
mining towns and his destructive
herds, does it bear even the vestige Of

turesque.-Ray Stannard Baker In Cen

IS AN EXPENSIVE GUARD.
Coal Companies Have Thus Far Elk.
pended $1,SOO,OOO to Protect
Mine Property.

Willsesbarre, Pa, Aug 23.-It is es-
tlmated that the coal and iron police
men now guarding the idle collieries
in four counties of the anthracite re-
gion number 5000. The employment of
SO many special guards has necessitat-
ed an expenditure by the companies to
date of $1,S00,000. Besides paying the
special policemen a daily wage, the
companies supply them with food and
lodging.
Every coal company in the anthra-
cite district and nearly every washery
has its quota of police. The commits
sions are all granted by Gov. Stone at
Harrisburg, and cost the companies
four dollars for the granting and re-
cording of each commission. Of this
sum two dollars goes to the state and
two to the county.
Shenandoah, Pa, Aug. 25.-Reports
received at brigade headquarters
showed the entire anthracite coal
field to be very quiet. Brig. Gen. Go
bin said Sunday that settlement of
the strike appeared to him to be as
far off as when he arrived here nearly
four weeks ago. The troops will, in
all probability, remain here until the
strike comes to an end.
Hazleton, Pa, Aug. 25.-Special Off
Ger Scheuch, mine foreman, while at
tempting to rescue his son William
from mob of several thousand strik-
ers here was fatally wounded. Hewas
stabbed in the left side. Albert Hoeb-
ner, a nonunion man. and youno
scheuch were also severely beaten.
The city is in high state of excite
ment and further trouble is feared.
