one OF my hearers, who has an elder
brother, a gentleman of considerable

pious, of late years does often fall into
the sin of drunkenness. He often
lodges long together here in his moth

knocks at his bedhead, as If one raped
on the wainscoat. When they remove
his bed it follows him. Besides other
loud noises on other parts where he 49,

often watched him and tied his hands
lest he do ii himself" But his mother

visible to touch them The drunken
sinner refused, in spite of these solemn
warnings, to abandon his evil ways.

At a recent sitting the Russian coun
ell of ministers resolved that a second
line of rails shall be laid down along
the Siberian railway. The great need
of the track referred to being doubled
was recognized; but. In view of the
many calls 20 being made on the i'm
perial exchequer, 1t was decided that
the projected work for this year shall
be carried out only between Achinsk
and Irkutsk. The ministry of ways Of
communication asked for the sum OF
G795, 600, so that the work can be begun,
but the council of ministers made a
grant of only E425, 900.

SCARCITY OF COAL.

Because of its inability to fill the or
der, the Philadelphia and Reading
Coal and Iron Company has been COM
PEELED to decline contract for 200, 600
tons of anthracite, the order for which
was rendered by representative of the
Austro- Hungarian Chamber Of Com
merce.
Another order for 100000 tons Of
bi.umious coal wanted by the Italian
government is also being offered to the
largest soft-cosl operators of the United
States, with little prospect OF its being
taken. Other foreign orders have been
offered to American operators with lack
of success.
The great demand for coal by foreign
governments is attributed to the in
creased amount of coal consumed by their
naval vessels, the number of which has
grown rapidly within the last two years.
All native coal is being used for this
purpose and the supply is not equal to
the demand.
AL OluCtI Vi tuO AsCaOib6 OOhPohy
explained that his company was COM
PEELED to decline all such orders because
of the great demand for coal among Gus
TONERS in this country and because of
the scarcity Of labor at the collieries.
The same conditions confronted every
other anthracite company, as well as all
bituminous operators, he said. 1t was
further explained that the shortage of all
grades OF coal is increasing daily and
many western railroads are now much
disturbed concerning their supplies for
the coming winter.
Men who formerly worked in the
mines are seeking employment in less
dangerous lines of business. Many have
abandoned mining as means of liveli-
hood and have turned TO farming in
western States. Foreigners who formerly
came 10 the United States to take up
mining now seek employment in other
fields of labor,
