"cALLED" ON STRAIGHT FLUSH.
And Gen. Goblin Had No Use for Such
a Poker PLAYER.

Gen. Goblin, the commander Of the
Pennsylvania National Guard, showed
his contempt for poor poker playing
in striking manner during the recent
coal strike, when he was at Wilkes
barre in charge of the states military
forces.
One night a poker game vas on be-
tween several Philadelphia newspaper
men, one of whom was young fellow
on whom they wished to play joke.
Finally, in q spirit Of fun, stacked
hands were dealt, so that three OF the
players, among whom was the young
fellow, got straight Pushes OF equal
value After the betting passed around
twice, the young fellow 'called," and
then, when he saw the cards, anxious
ly questioned as to which flush won
on color.
The next morning the young fellow
went to see the General for some
news, but the story of the poker game
had got there before him. When the
young fellows name was sent in he
heard Gen Goblin roar from inside:
Put the fool out! I never will
even receive a man who knows so lit
tie that he will call on a straight
flush New York Times.

When England Will Be Coal Hungry

England has just been informed by
the royal commission on coal supply
that she may expect coal famine IN
the year Io45-which is not so Tar OFT
when you come to think Of it.
The coal in the tight little island
will not be by any means exhausted IN
Io45, but all OF it which lies at less
depth than 1000 feet will have been
taken from the earth and burned up.
1t is estimated that all Of England's
coal will have been transformed into
heat and smoke by the end OF period
OF from $50 to 800 years. After that
time, if coal is still to be used as fuel,
it will have to be brought from the
United States or China. NOBODY
knows how large the coal deposits Of
China really arc, but they are known
to be immense.
The royal commission estimates that
even ii the expectation of coal from
England should be prohibited by law.
it would only delay the using up OF
the natural coal supply for about fifty
years beyond the time when the sup
ply will be exhausted anyway.
However, $50 years is long look
ahead, and some other fuel may appear
by that time which will make the burn
ing OF coal as old-iashioned as the
burning OF wood is now.

b The Coolest Known Liquid

Liquid hydrogen is by far the coolest
liquid known at the present time. At
ordinary atmosphere pressure it boils
at -42a degrees Fahrenheit, and re-
ducton OF the pressure by all air pump
brings the temperature down to -432
degrees. at which the liquid becomes
a solid, resembling frozen foam. Ac-
cording to Prof. Dewar, to whom the
credit is due OF having liqueted hydro
gen in 1893, the liquid is a colorleSS,
transparent body, and is the lightest
liquid known to exist, It's density be-
ing only one-iourteenth that OF water;
the lightest liquid previously known
was liquid marsh gas, which is SIX
times heavier The only solid which
has so small density as to float upon
its surface is a piece OF pith wood.

COMMERCIAL REVIEW.
General Trade Conditions.

r. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review
OF Trade" says: Industrial activity
has increased somewhat, many plants
resuming and others preparing to re-
open. Several pending labor contro-
versics have reached amicable adjust
ment adding to the aggregate Of wage
carners employed. On the other hand,
strikes are ordered and some mills will
be closed by lack OF new business, while
the struggle for control of the copper
properties has thrown thousands out
Of work. While there is evidence OF
a setback in the steel industry and
some hesitation in textiles at the East,
the general tenor OF these reports is
encouraging for continuance of pros
pcrity, particularly in the sections
where agriculture is the chief occupa-
ton.
Failures this week were 253 in the
United States, against 233 last year,
and IS in Canada, against p year
ago.
Bradstrect's says: The movement Of
the crops has been freer Northwest,
West and South and interior collec-
tons have improved. Eastern jobbers
in turn note a more cheerful tone to
trade. Wheat, including flour, exports
