R. G. Dun & Co.

The one change of great im portance which the past week has brought is the amicable settlement between coal miners and employ ers in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana. It is said about 100,000 men will have their wages in creased after October 1, by this Adjustment. The dense smoke that has filled the air in this region for the past two reeks comes largely from the destructive forest fires over in Western Washington, where mil lions of feet; of valuable timber have been desiroyed.andthehomeB of many settlers laid waste. The mountainous region west of Forest Grove is also on fire and a great deal of valuable limber has been destroyed. - It is unfortunate that the law against setting timber on fire cannot be more rigorously en forced. At the rate that forest fires have been spreading for the past few years the timber resources of Oregon and Washington will soon be seriously crippled.

The total pack is placed at 492,200 cases.: There is little doubt that the river has never been more systematically fished than it has'been during the pres ent season. One of the extraord inary features of this season's work lias been the largely increased de mand for Columbia river salmon from Great Britain and the Conti nent of Europe. This year 104,000 cases will lcavehere for foreign ports,' as' against 26,500 in 1894, a difference in favor of 1895 of 78,500 oases. So notwithstanding the faot that 4000 more oases of tnon havs bsen packed on th Co lumbia this season, there will be s hovttift nf over 70,000 wast for Waewtpttoi, ' Xiebanon Warehouse.

Four hun dred competing loaves all fell short of the standard, if It is reported fairly. It is more generous to believe, however, that the standard has been raised by an intelligence which means to educate the community. In New York a few exclusive bakers advertise "high-class bread" at high' class prices; actually it is not too good. But Drains in lioston, joined with broth' erly kindness, have produced bread which may challenge any competition and which is sold to the public in tiny loaves, perhaps better called long rolls, at one cent apiece; faultless bread; sweet as the wheat can make It, but not sweeter; light and fine and close; u- quisitely baked in the mild, slow heat of b brick oven. This bread, such the rich seldom taste, comes dally from the New England Kitchen for all who are so fortunate as to be able to send for it. It is the produot of the intelli' gence and philanthropy of a society for the promotion 01 public health. When the kitchen was organised a few years ago its nrst six months' working supervised by Mrs. Mary Abell, who had taken the Lamb prize for an essay upon sanitary and economia cooking, This essay, accompanied by recipes and menus for the poorest wage earners, is among the publications of the Syracuse public health society. Proof of the economy and excellence of the cooking of the delightful Boston Kitchen may be made by anyone who is hurrying, as 1 once was, to the Provi dence depot without time for lunch and with ideas above a railway station res taurant. I was provided with a small paper box. I bought one of the little loaves I have just described; it nearly filled the box. For another cent it was buttered. What else could I catry? I was ofiered a slice of spiced pressed meat, such as is mode very poorly in some houses and called veal loaf. But that was not poor, but delicate and savory. It was daintily wrapped in white paraffine paper, all ready to be handled neatly. This waa also one cent. Here was a wholesome, delicate and abundant lunch for three cents. I thought of Franklin, opening his career in Philadelphia with his big Dutch penny roll, and, like him, I indulged in some philosophizing. One hundred and fifty years of what we call "progress" separate us from Franklin. In those years the era of homemade bread, with that of homesnun clothing, has deport ed. And still we have no good pnblio bread only the chaffy and spongy baker's loaf, overraised, nndermixed, deceitful and dear. Poor men cannot be fed with such bread, and so they wash it down with spirits. We are a groat people and we have the greatest chain of lakes and the Wjy gest rivers and the widest wheat-fields on the globe; bat we are not able to give the multitude bread until tt has been turned into carbonic acid gas for the profit of the bakers. In feudal days the lord of the manor had the monopoly of the oven; no bread for the peasant but that which waa baked in his oven, lly the Independence and competition of the laborer we have attained the privilege of starving our selves. Is it not almost time to awing back to the public oven, supervised by the best intelligence of the community, and secured against the greed of com petition? There is not wanted free bread to deprave the soul, or sour bread to deprave the stomach, or high-class bread to suit the rich; but honest bread, fit to be called once more the staff of life. BIG PRICES FOR FURNITURE. Auctioneers Talk of the Privet Bela of lllch Men's Effects. 4 party of auctioneers en route from Chicago to Buffalo were in the smoking room of a Lake Shore sleeper the other nilit telling stories. "Selling horses and farm stuff by auction is all right," said one, "but for genuine fun give me the private sale of a rich man's furni ture. When Anthony Drcxcl died there were a lot of things which had personal reminiscences connected with them winch everyone wanted. It was finally decided to hold a family auction and sell them to the highest bidder. The first thing I put up was a small clock, worth, I suppose, about twenty dollars. " 'I'll give five hundred dollars,' was the first bid. It came from a nephew. " 'Make it one thousand dollars," in terjected a younger soa. "'Fifteen hundred dollars,' replied the nephew. "The nephew won and got the twenty dollar clock for money with .which he could have bought the finest clock In Philadelphia. 1 never knew wliat the hi story of the clock was, but it must hure had a peculiar one. Then I put up u big arm-chair. It was tho chair 1)voh'.!1 had sat in for over twenty years and it hud a yalujible association for each one of the family. 4 piarried daughter and young Anthony Drexel were the ones who wanted it the most, and the bidding, which opened at one thousand dollars, was spirited and lively. I finally sold the chair to An thony for six thousuwj five hundred dollars. The day's sales brought jn over twenty-five thousand dollars.
