A new pumping station, probably
the largest plant of Its kind In the
United States. Is now under course
of construction at hundred, w. Va.
by the Carnegie Natural Gas com
pauy, and less has been mentioned
of 1t through the press than any
other. This plant has been going
up for several weeks aud the work
Is being pushed as rapidly as pos
sible, but 1t will take many weeks
YET to complete 1t. This station
will cost over $I5o, 900. The build
ings will be of steel and with all
equipments including a large res
ervoir will cover nearly four acres
of ground. There will be six 900
horse power boilers and engines 10

numerous wells, owned by this
company, will b. sent through this
station to Pittsburg mills where II
Is consumed.

Cigarettes Making
Criminals

Ninety mine out of a huno. ID
boys between the ages of 10 and II,
who come before me charged with
crime, have their fingers disfgured
with yellow cigarette stains" Thus
speaks magistrate In the courts
of great American city who tries
to forcibly impress upon the youth
of the country the danger there is
In smoking "coffin nails" Fe
means that 90 per cent of all the
lads charged with crime of all
grades from misdemeanor to burg
larry have their moral sense dulled
by the poison OF cigarettes.
1t does not seem possible that a
stronger plea for the dIscontinuance
of the cigarette habit could be
made. The facts themselves are
so clear that they need no embel
lishments, no comment. 1t IS for
parents everywhere to take serious
account Of them. Why are they
not willing to do so?

CELEBRATION OF
HALLOW ZEN

which signifies death. The victim
of this oracle Is led blind folded to
the three plates and dips the finger
In one. The water signifies mar
riage and the empty plate single
blessedress.
Another oracle that Is consulted
on this mystic evening is that of
the bowl OF water and floating let

on the stroke OF midnight. Each
guest provided with a set If
paper letters, which are dropped,
one at time, into bowl or glass
of water. The letter that floats Is
the initial of the amnity's name.
Sometimes all the initials OF the
name appear, the surname first OF
course. Where several bob up Sc
renely the girl who drops them has
a confused future, while IT all sink
the unlucky has so to speak no tu
ture at all. These are few Of the
many mysterious that the spirits
preside over at the Hallow Zen
season, which Is a time when Young
and old forget for few brief hours
the conventions and restraints
which society imposes and have a
] )llv good time.
The Rathbone Sisters have Is
sued invitations for a banquet,
which they will give In the Citi-

be very enjoyable one. Many in

his family and friends.

One of the most benehcent In
stitutions that has come this way
for some time Is The H1rris n Mu-
tual Burial Association. Since its
organic tion In this territory over
fourteen hundred members have
placed their names on the rolls, and
1t Is IN a most prosperous condition
The affairs of the COZ Germ are most
systematically managed and the
large membership makes the cost
but rrlalng on hose who are so
fortunate as to have identified
themselves with 1t. One OF the
pleasing features of the local
branch Is that Mr.. Rice will give to
any one dissatisfied with the or.
ganizatlon a receipt for all the
money paid In, which receipt will
be good for any funeral that might
occur In the family of the member
to the face value whenever the fu
neral Is held or conducted by him
self or his successor. This Is
qua antee that no money can be
lost by those who wisely place a
few pennies occasionally In this
common fund.

Gus There are mills to which this
gas Is piped at Carnegie, Plttsbure,
Homestead, Braddock, Bessemer

places by the natural pressure OF

Large forces of men are at work
on this plant, and the little village
of Hundred Is In state of excite
ment. This plant attracts wide at
tention from the railroad, and has
aroused the curiosity of many as
to what 1t Is intended for.

THE FUNERAL ASSOCIATION

/ The books of this association are
open to the inspection of any one
and the management would be
pleased to have any or all the mem
bers call at the off ce and carefully
inspect these books They e
wide open, plaiu, and will tell any
one that the organization Is In a
most fourtshing condition, as stable
as the eternal hills and wisely and
economically managed Any small
ru nors that may have been surrep
tiously circulated to the effect that
the Association is In a bad cond.-
tion and liable to go under are
urquali6edly false, and any one be-
lieving them and with drawing
from the organiz alton would make
a serious mistake.
This association has called to
many a sorrowing aud saddeued
home with It's bene6cent presence,
and dispelled a portion of the
gloom by providing from the COM
mon fund a funeral free from any
and all anxiety as to how the ex-
p lenses 1t adds to the already large
drain on home resources shall be
met.
The Harrison Funeral Associa
ton has been a blessing In many
homes already, and will continue
to be so for years to come.

with spirit of fun that both the
young and the old enjoy.
Numerous entertainment are al

Saturday evening All of the time
honored games will be tested, and
naturally enough the old-tiDe su
perstitions that gather around Hal
low Fen all relate to marriage.
One of these superstitioDs Is the
sign of The wedd ng ring. Toe
story goes, that a wedding ring
suspended over glass full of water
on a hair, must be held in the fin
gers of the maiden seeking her tor
tune, and as the hair begins to vi
brate and the ring strikes the sides
OF the glass, then the time has ar
rived for the vibrations to be count
ed, each stroke representing year
intervening before marriage, and
when the ring refuses to strike the
hapless woman who holds 1t Is
given over TO spinsterhood

THE B1AcKsMITHs, boilermakers and
machinists formerly in the employ OF
the Colorado and Southern Railway
Company at Denver, Col, have declared
their strike and boycott of, and a
statement issued yesterday afternoon
saws that the strike was the result OF
misunderstanding between the employees
in the blacksmith shops and misrepre-
sentation of their case to the bOilermakers
and machinists. The railway company,
having nothing whatever to do with tue
controversy, should not have been asked
to take any part in it, and a great
mistake was made in demanding any
action on the part of. the company. Inc
employees admit that the company acted
properly and fairly, and they have no
one TO blame but themselves for the
boycott, which is now off. The action
of the men referred to above shows that
all mechanics are by no means obdurate
and that many manifest as much good
sense and conservatism as those of any
other class. 1t would cOnduce much to
tbe peace of the industrial world II all
would follow the example of the Denver
artisans and endeayOr to bring about
good feeling between employees and
employers.

Cholera Ship.

New York. March 12.-The sea super
stition that the finger of death still
marked the course of the Anchor line
steamship Karamania which arrived here
recently after voyage attended by
many mysterious deaths, prevented the
unloading of the ship when she was
locked at her pier this morning IN
Brooklyn. Many 'longshoremen had
been ordered to report for work but fear
of the vessel kept the 'longshoremen
away. Only six reported for work.
When the Karamania came into port
DR.. Doty, the health officer, ordered the
liner into quarantine, several passengers
and members of the crew having died
during the voyage of malady, which is
thought to have been cholera. The ves-
sci had cholera on board in 1898, when she
made trip to this port. The captain
and other officers are again in charge OF
the vessel, having been released from
Hoffman Island. The Karamania has
been thoroughly fumigated. DIR. l. HON.
medieu, deputy health officer, visited
Hoffman Island this morning and ex-
amined the detained stee-age passengers
and crew of the Karamania. All are
we'll on the island.

IT Is stated in Madrid that at the next
meeting of the Spanish cabinet Senior
Abarzuza. the minister of foreign affairs,
will propose that the government try to
raise the American warship Maine, which
was blown up in Havana harbor, Feb
ruary 10, 1898, in order to ascertain the
true cause of the explosion. AS the
sinking of the Maine was one OF the chief
assigned reasons for bringing on the war
with Spain, why the ship has never been
raised by this government to ascertain
the cause of the sinking is more than
passing strange. Several offers have
been made to raise the ship, but this
government has given no encouragement
to the undertaking, so the Spanish gov
eminent, which always contended that
the explosion was not from the "out-
side," and protested against the imputa-
ton that Spaniards were responsible fol
the awful calamity, now proposes to re-
lieve itself of the imputatiOn, and by
raising the ship show to the world thai
the explosion was from the "inside. "
