"What fools, we mortals be." lumped From a Moving Train. On the early morning train last Sun day, a Rev. McBrldc, of Brooklyn, N. was returning to Philadelphia with his demented brother In charge, who had recently escaped from the Pcnnsyl vanla Hospital and had been captured In Buffalo, Y. Some where between this place and Bowman's the crazy man sprang from the cars, and gaining his feet he threw off his coat and plunged Into the river.

After he was missed from the train, it was for a time Impossible to jndge where he left the curs, In this sad plight, after his cold bath, he wandered across tho mountains and turned up at Chas. Lcntz's, In Nis- Hollow. Here he was given some old clothes and taken to the Parryvlllo station. He had cropped his long beard with a pair of small scissors, and by his fall had scratched and bruised his face and Injured his leg. His brother on the 4 p.

train was anxiously Inquiring for him, and hardly recognized his tramp-like looking brother when he found him. Ths Coal Trade. Last Monday's Philadelphia LetJyer says! If anxious Inquiry, actlvcdcm.ind and larger oilers for coal than can be conveniently filled at present are any Indications of a "boom'' there Is a small one on for the anthracite coal trade now. During the past week numerous good sized orders for anthracite coal have been placed In this clly, and we are informed that New York operators and dealers have been similarly favored. Prices have been generally advanced within the past week or two, and the actual figures obtained for anthracite range from five to fifteen cents per ton higher than have been ruling heretofore.

This favorable change in the condition of tbe anthracite coal trade, judging from present indications, promises to contlliuo throughout this month, and it is the opinion of several conservative and well Informed coal operators that the crisis of tho season of 18S5 has been safely passed over, though long Impending danger was narrowly escaped.

IT.AMi itAUR, Principal of Schools, An Engineer's Horrible Death. When the day engineer at Stccltel's ore mines, about seven miles north of Allentown went to the mines Monday morning, to relieve the night engineer, a horrible sight met his gaze. Mangled almost out of all human resemblance Nathan George, the night engineer, lay dead between two cog-wheels.

To keep the mines going it Is necessary to run the pumps night and day to that the laborers can work on a dry surface. George was required to be on duty on Sunday as well as other nights. Sunday evening he left his wife and fivochildren at a happy home and that was the last they saw of him until Monday morning, when his mutilated remains w-ero taken home. It Is supposed that while oiling some part of tho machinery he slipped and fell between the cegs. Some bank notes in bis pockets were torn, into sbrcds and silver coins were bent and twisted out of shape.
