Another Action Started to Recover for Injury to Land at Harvey's Lake. Mary C. Lynch, wife of Judge Lynch, has begun a suit in trespass against Dr. E. R.

Troxell and C. Rosa Troxell, his sister, to recover damages for injury to property of the plaintiff at Harvey's Lake. The case grows out of the same trouble complained of in actions instituted some few years ago and which resulted in a for Mrs. Lynch for $3,000 verdict, damages and $4,000 punitive damages, the latter amount being taken off, however, by the Supreme Court. The erection of a dam at the outlet of the lake, thereby forcing the waters to rise far above the natural flow, is the cause of the suit.

Mrs. Lynch's land lies adjacent to the lake at the west corner and is near the Lynch summer home. Before 'the dam was built the land was considered very valuable, but since the rising of the water it has become swampy and greatly depreciated in value. In this latest suit the allegation is that the Troxells have persisted in maintaining the dam and because of this continuance of the trespass are liable to the plaintiff. The amount asked for is $10,000.

John M. Garman is the attorney for Mrs. Lynch. LUTHERANS NEED MORE PREACHERS MINISTERIUM PLANS REMEDYGREAT DEARTH IN THEOLOGICAL STUDENTS -TAKES UP BENEFICIARY AID QUESTION. Allentown, June of the morning session yesterday the Lutheran Ministerium was devoted to a discussion of beneficiary aid to students for the ministry, which crystallized into a motion that obligations for advanced be taken, but that repayment shall be exacted only from those who do not complete their course of preparing for the ministry, and that after ten years of service in the Lutheran the obligations cancellministry, was adopted by be, vote of 133 to 54.

Rev. Dr. Samuel Laird's motion to extend this privilege to students and clergymen now under obligation was defeated by 60 ayes to 119 noes. Synod extended' beneficiary aid to nineteen students for the ministry to the amount of $2,528. One new congregation was received, the Church of the Redeemer, at Lancaster.

The Board of Home Mission asked for an appropriation of $18,000 for the coming year, a reduction of $250. The ministerium in the afternoon continued its discussion of theological students, of whom there is an alarming dearth. Congregations were urged to seek out desirable young men and to encourage those whose gifts give promise of success. The societies within the tions were urged to join in this work. Students from Lutheran seeking education in institutions of other or of no denomination were commended to the pastoral oversight of Lutheran pastors in the college towns.

Congregations. were urged to pay their pastor adequate salary, whereby they may be enabled to recoup gradually their means expended in preparing for the ministry. Synod appropriated $1,000 to mission work among the Slavs, whose Interests will here after be looked after by General Counell. The enrollment of Synod 317 ministers and 156 laymen. HOUSES OF CORNCOBS Peculiar Building Material Used In European Countries.

In some parts of Europe corncobs are used for building burposes. The cobs are collected and taken to a factory where heavy compresses crush and' mould them into blocks of various else just as bricks are varioualy molded. These blocks are then bound with wire so As to make them hold together. They are then soaked in tar to make them watertight, and are ready for use after this treatment. of course, they are much lighter than bricks.

To most men who have become accustomed to the multifold uses of electricity surface of the earth, its importance far underground is Yet, just As electricity has changed 1 the whole complexion of life above ground, so is it bringing about a revolution in the operation of the mines that supply the country with fuel. Where there was one electric locomotive in the anthracite coal mines of Pennsylvania a decade ago, there are a dozen now; the hundreds of feet of trolley wire have grown into thousands. Millions of dollars have been spent, upon the electric locomotives, the power houses and the strengthening of tracks necessary to the improved system. The network of the tracks in the anthracite mines has spread as as the mileage of the the underground mileage is almost sO ed "anthracite roads" on the surface.

With every year the gangways are extended farther from the shafts; and with the increasing length of hauls the problems of underground transportation become! more serious. The result is that the operation of coal mine nowadays includes the operation of a railroad system with intricacies and difficulties peculiar to itself. Some 17,000 horses and mules are still employed in and anthracite mines, but in many cases mere distance has disqualified power. Compressed air locomotives, though used in considerable number, have proven less economical than electric locomotives, and their use is not apt to be extended. There steam locomotives in the mines, and there will be still fewer in the future.

Combustion in any form is not desirable in coal mines, on. of the risk of gas explosions. Within three years, 1903 to 1906, the number of electric locomotives in the anthracite mines--this does not include those of the shafts--grew from 84 to 205. There were only 41 locomotives operated by steam in 1906 as against 49 in 1903, a decrease of 16 per cent. Compressed air locomotives increased from 67 to 104 in the three years.
