effect DOWN IN THE MINES One who is well posted as to the coal productions of the western Kentucky coal fields for the last two years says that the production of coal for the year 1895 ex ceeded that of 1896 by About 300000 bushtls The Providence Coal Company Is no longer manager ol the Western Union Telegraph Company at that place having lately thrown up the position and now use telephone exclusively when they can Quite 9 number of the Dar esly miners favor Harvey Bonrland for county judge and it is generally conceded that be would make a good one The demand from the North and West for the coVc made at Earlington has of late been on the increase which Indicates a revival of business Miners throughout the country are gen erally agreed on one point and that is that the Republican party favor a duty on coal which will protect their interests against the foreign production The action of the comm 1te now at work on a tariff bill justifies them in that belief and the vote of the miners In such states as Kentucky Illinois Ohio Indiana and West Virginia all large coal producing states at the recent election indicated their views on this question The miners choice for postmaster at SII Charles is Jake McEuen and a better selection could not bs mafe A bill has been introduced in the Illi nois legislature to prevent minersfrom be- Ing wilfully and fraudulently deprived of their wages In Kentucky what our min ers want is more work and they have no complaint to make on account of failure to receive their just dues Secretary Geo C Atkinson of the St Bernard is now in New Jersey

Washington Superintendent Crntcbfield of St Charles was over on business last Satur day and judging from the hurry be was in to get back be must have left that young daughter at bome The coming winter in Cornwall says the Westminister Gazette will it is feared be a time of severe trial The de pression in the mining districts has reached an acute stage The price of tin has been gradually dropping for many months past and it is now lower than it has been for nearly twenty years Consequently miners are leaving the county in thousands Since January last over iooo miners from the districts of Camborne bad Redruth alone have emigrated to South Africa and other colonies In tacit Cornwall is fast losing the best of Its brain and muscle Last year no less than 2086 Cornlshmen left the county

to have property in Jeffersonville Car robberies are also reported as has ing taken place in the Pennsylvania yards at Fourteenth street and in the Big Four yards at Floyd and Washington streets Several nights ago 300 worth of shoes were taken from a Pennsylvania car It is not known whether the persons now held are guilty of operating in the yards of these two railroads Sensitive People From B M Chat As a rule all people are more or less sen sitive about some particular things and pertnps it is best they should be inas much that it enables them to have more consideration for tie feelings of those about them But if the sensitiveness has been cultivated until in a highly developed state it becomes an unconsciousness of sell that tends to make one somewhat selfish for bis own welfare If human nature has been closely studied it will be found that those who are the most sensitive often possess a very exten sive imagination which ifnot girded and bridled so that the reins of justice may be tightly drawn mayIead them into paths that will prove hurtful to themselves When engaged in conversation they are apt to manifest this element of their char acter only too plainly frequently re marks are made that though not intended may appear personal and just hero the over sensitive person will fancy himself as being a subject for sport and hard at t work thinking over the different sentences that have been uttered misconstruing them manufacturing a different meaning for almost every work and so getting to gether the wonderful connecting links which are to prove himself a most shame fully abused person Thus in just such a manner does he contrive to make himself the most miserable of all creatures besides disturbing the peace of mind of others wbo are forced to rack their brains for an explanation that will soothe the ruffled feelings and quiet the lamentiogs of their sensitive fellow being A mistake that will wreck a soul for liftS may arise from a misunderstanding caused over sensitiveness combined wlllrifeel if og of socalled pride which will help to conceal all signs of a treaty of peace and will scornfully thrust aside any attempts toward reconciliation Perhaps a certain amount of this ex treme sensitiveness is due to the fact that onodoes not forcet self a sufficient length Jjme to become thoroughly acquainted with his friends and fails to remember that they are capable of thinking as well and as deeply as himself and have the same right to judge him wrongly So frequently I is this the case that persons fall to recognize within themselves this quality I can never forget a lesson taught me by a good old professor whom most of us know and honor When one day fancying my feelingsbavingional act of a friend ho kindly remarked Perhaps you are like myself more sensl live than sensible Little did he know the force of his words and how deep they would sink into my mind for I havo learned to appreciate their truth Well my dear Bachelor Maids I

Disclosed for the Consideration IOF TIlE POPOCRATIC DEMAGOGUES The recent sensational escapade of the Mail in publishing the secret proceedings of the grand jury which it must have procured from someindiscreet juror can hardly be allowed to pass without comment The facts of the case to which it alludes were fully set forth in these columns during the recent campaign anti reler to a sum of money left with a Norton ville man to be handed to the Re publican precinct committeeman to be used for legitimate campaign purposes which money was neither delivered nor returned Advan tagc was taken of the fact that the money was left with a free silver man and the true motive distorted into an attempt at boodling The result of the grand jurys in vestigations seemed to be disap pointing and displeasing to the Mail Its enterprising breach of confidence in disclosing the se crets conveyed by a friendly ove r partisan juror tells the public how the vote stood on this case but fails to record the action taken upon the genuine free silver bood ler case from Nebo With the substance of the facts contained in the following affidavit before them upon which some action must have been taken why does not the Mail inform the peo pie as to the jurys action in that caseIn an interview with Mr WL Cunningham of the Nebo country THE BEE obtained the following affidavitI Cunningham a citizen of Hopkins county do hereby state that on the 3d day of November 1896 I was in NebO Ky for the purpose of voting when Neal Payne my cousin a citizen of Nebo Ky approached me near Messrs Cox Hoffmans drug store at the steps with a roll of money in his hand which money I saw and which he said was ISJ but previous to making such statement we saw two men approaching and he asked me who they were and I told him that they were Bill Lynch and Mr Dour land And he asked me the question How are they Are they for Bryan and I told him I thought they were sorter on the fence He then said Wouldnt a drink of whiskey and a dollar or two vote them for Bryan and told me to- go and talk to them Arid I replied I think I will but Ill get em to vote for McKinley if I can He thought I was joking and said You old fool we must get o business I want you to take this here money Iso and buy and hire every let bw you can to vote for Bryan and if you cannot hire them to vote for Bryan lire them to ga and cut persimmon sprouts I then said to him If I were to buy votes I would buy them for Mc Kinley but I dont intend to buy them at all And be then said Why you have always been a Demo crat havent you and I said Yes I have always been a Democrat but I have changed and am going to vote forI McKinley When I told him that he asked me if I meant what I said sure enough and I told him I did He then begged me not to expose him I told him be would bush talking about Hendricks and the Republican parly boodliogII would not say anything be didnt I would squeal on him righ there and he said he would Previous to this conversation be bad been telling me about Hendricks bood ling up above Earlington And I asked him what Hendricks bo meant lie replied Ed Hendricks living in lfadlsonvilleI I found by reading the papers and otherwise that the talk did not stop and felt It my duty to let the truth be known W L CUNNINGHAM bybyFebruary 18971I F PoRTER J P II C In a further conversation he stated to TIlE BEE that Neal Payne came to his house after the eJec- tion looking for him but he was not at home 1 afterward met him in the postoffice at Nebo he continued and spoke to him about the matter when he asked c if I had said anything to any ody about what he had toldme and I told him I had Then he aid You ought not to have done hat for it will run me Soon after that I understand he left the county and has not returned uponhatof the grand jury and the gross perversion of law and fla rant abuse of the powers wjth hich grand jurors are vested the animus of this partisan in its ludicrous attempt to ose as the immaculate protector f the people without reference partyjflhiations impugnhe so that thercmight be a possibility of obtaining two others erent party affiliations andahc silence in regard to the other cased not point to impartial judgmcnt It would be in order for this al leged peoples paper to say whether the Attorneys were as zealous In pushing the silver hood ler case in the jury room with the same ardor it reports them to have exercised in the other investigation And it should divulge whether this silver boodler case came to a final vote if so how the votc stood and the names of the voters on either side One of the many straws that in dicate the honesty and high mo tives which actuate the manage ment of the Mail is the record of the attempt by the man who is known as its senior proprietor to cast a fraudulent vote for Bryan When challenged he insisted on voting but admitted that he had not been in the County tho proper length of time He couldnot have been ignorant of the law and persisted in attempting to violate the law Mr 1 D Martin was the challenger Mr Dayton Cooke and others witnessed the attemptThe goodname and reputation of the gentleman who composed the

STATEMENT BY GRADES The Coal Shipped Brought In 1896 Three Times the Cash Value of the Tobacco Crop ot That Year Four weeks ago TilE BEE pub lished in its editorial columns a statement of the total output of the mines of Hopkins county which are classed as commercial mines those shipping coal by rail from the mines The figures then published were from the incomplete returns to the State Inspector of Mines Mr C J Norwood We are now able to present the full and official report of Hopkins countys output from Commercial mines by grades for the year 1896 This complete report differs not materially in its total from the first statement but gives all details of coal output and coke production The money brought into this county by the sale of the product of these Commercial mines considerably exceeded a half million dollars for x8gGIThe following interesting com parison with the Countys tobacco crop made by THE BEE is here reproducedHalf of dollars la an off year from the coal industries of Hopkins county- Is not a small thing for the county and yet there are those engaged In other pursuits who devote much of their time to cussing the coal companies p In addition to the valuo jwodaced by the coal shipped there is to be considered the tonnage sold locally and used ia making steam and beat at the mines Besides this too is the product of the various small conntry banks that do not ship coal and hence do not come in the class of commercial mines for which theI above figures are made The next most important product ofIHopkins connty is the tobacco crop This rop was only about a halt crop last year r in the neighborhood 04 000000 pounds I cropiswhat under the average for a ten year pe 1 nod Thus the 4 000000 pounds of the present crop at four cents pound amounts to a total value for the crop of 163000 Afull crop would be about double this figure In 1896 an off year for both coal and I tobacco the coal product waswortb more than three times as much to the county as the tobacco crop- Hopkins is the first county in the State to furnish the inspector corn plete returns for the year and Mr Norwood expresses his appreciation in his letter to THE BEE This county produces about ono the coal outputof the State 4 coke st are those of the t Bernard Coal Company who erute the only ovens inthe county Here is the letter and rcport OFFICE OF THE STATE

Hecla Coal Company and also manager of the Hecla Jersey Cattle Company when sked by the DEB the other day to make a statement in regard what he wat doing and bow he was getting on with his herd respondedIn 1892 we bought fourteen head f the very best of the Tennessee strainsat he closing out sales of Dr Morrows largo herdpaylng a very high price for the ame as they ranked as the very best In he whole country They were shipped immediately to the HeclaJoal Companys arm The most of them were aged cows and were bought with the view of starting herd for dairy and breeding purposes Amongst them was Noonday a son of Tormentor the sire of about forty tested daughters and then very justly regarded as the best Jersey bull of Iho world living or dead He stands today however as second best having been eclipsed by Exile of St Lambert who has about fifty tested daughters to his credit In the herd are- adaughters of Noonday and they have been true totbeir excellent breeding o many of them having made the test of fourteen pounds and over In seven days It may be well here to explain to the un Inlated that the test of no animal accord- Ing to the rule of tbe American Jersey Cattle Club will be recorded unless she shows fourteen pounds or more of butter In seven days This test has to be properly to and attested We have a herd now of about forty head Many of the old ones have died from old age while many of the younger ones have been sold to parties at a distance Some have gone to New York some to Pennsylvania some to Texas Missouri Indiana Alabama Tenessee and tbe Blue Grass region of this state Not one has ever been sold strange to say in this re ion At the auction sales in Louisville in November 1895 we sold three heifers with first calf at an average of 21250 ach Many bull calves have goon off to other states at Iwo each when about a month od A gentleman of St Paulc Nebraska tent ns an offer for one of our m bull calves SlOO to be shipped when a month old This would have been accepted 0as that was the price we were ask ing but unfortunately the day before we were to ship him be concluded to die on onr hand He was a son of Tenella who was the best daughter of old Signalb and while living was published as living Jersey Cow She gave official record eight gallons of milk in one day which made nearly four pounds of butter She was fifteen years old when we purchased her and was somewhat beyond great milking performance but she dropped us two fine bull calves the fate ot the one we have just told you the other lscow at the b dof our herd Since 1894 when

SCHOOL Established In the Poorest Dlstttct In t Tokyo and Operated Under Great t Difficulties t WILL OPEN AN INDUSTRIAL DEPARTMENT It is with pleasure we publish the fbI letter from Miss Alice Miller giving clear and detailed statement ol the arduous labors in which she is engaged as missionary teacher in one of the most poverty stricken and squalid districts fn the City of Tokyo Japan Miss Millera teacher of wide experience for some years principal oj the public school in Earlinglon and who was prominent as a teacber in Kansas City and else where and ever a devoted Christian worker went from this place to Japan two years ago as a missionary teacher She sailed from San Francisco in December 1894 and was joined at Honolulu by Miss Scott of III who was a relative of lion Al ert S Willis deceased then our Minister o Hawaii and tim two proceeded together on their labor of love to Japan Later Miss Hosteller followed to her old work III The mission is unattached and was estab lished by Rev Azbill who is remembered by many of our people from his visit and II lecture here on the Japanese and mission ork in 1894 Misses Scott and Hosteller had been in the work before and were re II turning from a visit home when Miss Mil ler went to Japan Miss Miller was greatly interested in Christian Endeavor work here and that society is treated now and then to a bit of news from their friend In Japan This description of the Yatsuya Charityd School was read before that ast meeting The letter was posted at okyo January 27 and is as follows S The Yotsuya Charity School was un dertaken for the benefit of children whore not able to pay even the small fee re- quIred ot those who attend the Tokyo City otschools It was begun some four years go in Tani macbi Yotsuya ward ing one of the most poverty stricken andSsqualid districts in the City Tani means valley street and this Taut macbi s low in many senses Its people gather rags deal in castoff clothing secondhand wares and the like make cigarettes and gothe lost tribes of our race Many of them ent their beds night by night and return every morningand others pawn their dailyforIbo streets in filthy rags and in Ignorance heir unfortunate condition appealed es- ecially to Misses Scott and Hosteller by whom the school was commenced A houseSwas rented in the midst of the Japanese teacher was employed a few children were collected and the work was begun in this small way Gradually It rew more teachers were employed the of pupils increased to over one hundred and the school acquired the repu tation of being the best of its kind to Tokyo In this first stage of the enter rise it was managed by Misses Scott and Hosteller being sustained by funds col- ected in America by Rev W K Azbill Later Miss Hostetter having begun a sim Iar work in another ward Miss Scott took he sole care of the Yotsuya work which a she sustained by funds from America and hat she earned by teaching English uriQg thissecQnd period a commodious it school house was erected on a ridge above the valley in a most desirable situation nnda was felt that an era of prosperily for the school was beguncBut this for the patience of tbo Buddhists and they egan vigorous opposition to the enter rise Representation was made to the authorities that our teaching does not make good citizens of Japan the con ductors of the school being foreigners that there were children in attendance who should be In the public schools as their parents were able to pay the fees etc Accordingly we were given the alternative of closing it or of making it a Government school hut as the Emperors pictures must receive dally divine honors in the public school we thought it not good to go under Government regulations So after damaging delay we reopened it as a night school calling tbe children together Justc after the close of the daily sessions of public schools and keeping them together ill sevenin tbe evening- At this unhappy juncture I took charge of the work It was some respects like anew beginning But we bad the good will of thn children and of the parents Now we have about forty pupils in attend ance A Bible lesson is given every even ing aswell as the lessons in reading writ big arithmetic and geography Gradually we hope to regain our former attendance We desire also to open an Industrial depart meat for the benefit of the pupils who are old enough to work and whose parents are putting them to making cigarettes A suit- S able to teach in this department ha offered a certain firm in Yokohama has offered to buy small articles of a

today is tilebirthday of the Father of Our Country Had you thought of it YesI heard tUfl talkie about itirown town yesterday Theyre fjoin to have some kind ofcelebra tioivat the school house replied J allies as he settled himself com fortably before the fire His mother gave a sigh and the boyiwell understood what it meant It was the old story of a widow IcftAvith small means and her boy being obliged to stop school and look for work there is one way in which we can celebrate the mother began visIionshis tfrain but his face changed with thefnext words You could try once more to get a ace The Father of Our Coun tryvs a worker and we could at least celebrate his birthday in that way Seeing the downcast face she stoppedTheres no use in trying I cant get a place he said reluctantly I tried all day yesterday and only succeeded in getting knocked about and refused Its no use Im tiredof trying son you must adopt the motto If at first you dont succeed trtry again Take heart today DoTrtigive up Follow the exam plet toUr countryman left the cheerlul blaze very reluctantly indeed and after rappingup as best he could went ut into the cold North wind He is undecided where to go He f t tried nearly every store in 0There wasoile business bOSt however whi li he vowed not try It was a large est 131Tffment controlled by one MrSargan He was a very cross oilman and every one was afraid of Him A3 James walked past that store he was saying to himself I had rather starve than to have a posi tioif under that old Hey boyl Dye know of any boy about your ago that wants a a position A good one it is too andpays well James looked up and saw Mr Sazan himself standing in the doorway Of course he was very much confused He knew it to be- n fact hat Mr Sargan always paid good wages He thought of his mother and how glad she would be to have him in a good place but he thought of his vow and responded No sir He walked on but his mothers words came to him and he knew hihad not followed the example ot his countryman He had told a lie What would his mother say He stooped down and picked up a I handful of snow and moulded it into a ball Seeing a boy coming down the street he yielded to a sudden impulse and flung it at him at the same time dodging around the corner Looking back a mo ment later he saw the boy still walking along as if nothing had happened while Mr Sargan wh- owatihl standing in the doorway was iping snow from his face and domes and quivering withanger James saw that he had missed his mark and decided it would be safer for him to get out of the way There were several others standing near and he probably would not be suspected He did not stop run ningnmtil he reached an alley back of his home Here he paused a moment for breath Two boys passed along the street busily talking Mr SarganOl hes just fu riousl He has my little brother up there because he thinks he threw a snowball at him I expect hes going to whip him II They were out of hearing now but James had heard enough to understand that someone else was getting the pumshme it he de served It looked rather cowardly for a big boy of fifteen to allow a smallboy to be punished in his place Would George Washington do that way In a moment James was off down the street to Mr Sargans officede termined to tell the truth or die in the attempt He could hear the sound of sobs coming from the room as he knocked timidly on the door trembling from head to foot A very gruff voice said Come inliThe door opened very slowly and James entered Little Harry Smith was standing before Mr Sargan who looked very angry Well from Mr Sargan gruffer than ever IIUYIU please sir began James IIjjvanted to tell you that Harry w that snowball I am the oriethat threw it and I want to No CripeWhen you toko Hoods

James paused but Mr Sargans face had relaxed and he was silent Im really very sorry sir that it hit you But when it was done Im willing to own I did a cowardly thing I ran away Another pause When I got to the back alley at home I heard some boys thoughtlittlesnowball Then I thought over what my mother told me this morn ing She said it was George Wash ingtons birthday and because we didnt have any money for fire works and things the way I wanted to celebrate we could be good like him and that would do jUt as well I knew George Washington never told a lie so I thought I wouldnt either Not to come and tell you would be the same thing you know So I came When he had finished Mr Sar gans face was a study What is your name he finally askedJames McDonald Well James so youre not going to tell any lies because George Washington didnt uNo sirercr He stopped when he thought of the lie he had so recently spoken to Mr Sargan himself about the position Mr Sargan he said very slowly there is one thing more I want to tell you I told you a lie when I said 1 didnt know anyone who wanted a position I was looking for a place when I told you thatYou may go now Mr Sargan said briefly but come back this afternoon at 4 oclock James left but he determined not to come back When he reached home he poured forth the whole story into his mothers ever ready car She sympathizedwith him but advised him to return toI Mr Sargan In the afternoon he was still de termined not to go but his mother urged him until he reluctantly consented and started He walked past the store a time or two and I finally went in resolved to take what he believed to be in store for hImIHe found the old gentleman in a very pleasant humor which sur prised him Take a chairtake a chair said Mr Sargan Now Ill tell you what I want J When I asked you this morning J about a position I didnt want you myself but a friend had written to me asking for a good strong boy right away to fill a vacancy at twenty dollars a month But since you spoke to me so honestly I rather think I want you myself andcant let you go What do you say James was very much taken aback with this He felt that he didnt deserve either place and for a moment he wrestled with con science as to whether he should tell of his cowardice uO Im not worthy of either place The only reason I came back this alternoon was be cause some boys dared me to come and I didnt want them to think me a coward Jliflri And why didnt you want to come asked Mr Sargan fixing his cycsvupon him Because because Because what1 Because if you want to know truly I was afraid of you said James at last very much abashed Then he added hoping to justify himself Nearly everybody is afraid of you I Mr Sargan walked to the win dow and remained there a long time His next words were slow and measured and James listened attentivelyI that no one likes me I Dont say that sir for Im sure the reason is that they dont know you I am beginning to like you very much This seemed to open the conversation and Mr Sargan poured out his heart to this boy I realize now as I never did be fore that I am a cross old man But I am resolved that ort this Wash ingtons birthday 1 will strive to be more like this great American in my deportment James McDonald was engaged by Mr Sargan He rose in the business until he became partner He grew up to be a wise success fulmanMr became amiable and kind and he attributed the fact to the boy who snowballed him on Washingtons birthday A Reminder of Army Life Mr Lou Smith editor of the Commercial Myersdale Pa says A chronic diarrhoea Ibat returns
