Have you anthracite coal? 1C very time Russel Sage sneezes the market has a chi!!. Yes, vve have heard of Jim but we are looking for coal Dumps. ___________ . Wicked reporters when they die arc condemned to reincarnation as society editors. Poets are bom, not made. Very true, they alse bear a great deal and make very 111 tie. The newspaper is the greatest educational force of the times. What responsibility! It is no longer true of the an thracite miners to say that “they work while you sleep.” At least we Lave company. There is a great srtke on in Switzerland, and the French coal nnnera are striking. Porous terra cotta bricks soaked in kerosene are excellent substitute for coal, and less expensive than most fuels. Wetting the bricks before ri.'tassaajaB giving them the oi! b„th is recom mended.

It is a curious condition tbst makes it possible to guage the social im portance of person recently deceased by the inverse ratio of the size of the funeral. “Worth'makes the rnr.n and want of it. makes the fellow. ’ Tne “good fellow” is usually a compound of easy manners, eay morals, easy drink ing—in fact he is dead easy' They are using horgo diesmtits in Connecticut for fuel. The nuts are dried in a loft, and in burning give a good fire. We would perfer. how ever ’ to busn the sttke chestnuts, There is involved in the coal strike a depj.er and more vifal <]ues tion than a coal famine and the suf fering it is sure to bring. It is the right of man to unmolested tot! whether he wears a union badge or not, To interfere with this right is a crime for which capital punishment is not too severe. Everyone has noticed the disagree able odors of new tires after the heating apparatus has been long un used, as in tlie Autum. The scientists tell us these odors come from Die rapid germination and destruction of myriads of low forms of plant and animal life that find lodgment in pipes in the summer. Clean the pipes before the fires are lighted, and leave the windows open until smells go.

SUCCESSOi ro the in v r,i>. Jasper Georgia, Friday y * i *902. A GEORGIA WONDKR. A giant oak tree, winch owin' ii self and eight feet of ground on ail sides, is one of the chief attrae ■ns of Athens, Ga; says a Washington newspaper. This tree stands on Deal ing street in fashionable Cnbbhain, and is ’one of the most magnificent oaks in'.'. die South. It is tall and symirmn - crI; its great limbs are shaped as if by the bauds of an artist, and under its shade several generations had sheltered themselves from the h at or have taken refuge in storm. Nearly a century ago Col. W. !!. Jackson, son of Governor Jam is Jackson and father of Chief Jnsti •e Tackson of the Georgia surpreme •ouit, went to the court house in diis city and had a deed placed i record it which he said: “For and in consideration of the leep love and veneration I have for oak tree (giving location) and a great desire that the said tree be protec! ci for all time, I convey to said tree entire oossesion of itself, together with eight feet of ground on all sides Col. Jackson loved the tree. Ido had watched its growth from hi* childhood, and it pained him to think that after his death the tree roigh 1 fail into the hands of those -wh would destroy it. T^le land around the tree has sold af different times, fa*hi<v> lionies Have l>. eii him. close to tne tree, but the wishes of Col. Jackson, as expressed in the deed, have been sacredly carried out.—Ex. Train wreckers and bank robbers are less criminal than the noting miners m the coal regions. The black est crime of modern times is to pn - vent a man from earning bread. These people will not woik ami by murderfand intimdation jut vent oth ers from working. ANNUAL MEETING L r . 0.
