Many of the rail roads were compelled to suspend busi ness for the time being. THX First National Bank, of Leba non, is no donbt the only bank in the state,which has a lady as a director. Mrs. G. Dawson Coleman was recent ly elected as a member of the board of directors of said bank. THI "Committee of One Hundred," a political reform organization in Philadelphia, has dissolved. It had for its main object to reform munici pal government, but since Philadel phia is and always will be republican the committee gave it up "for a bad job," IT would seem that a majority in both houses are emphatically against the suspension of silver coinage. The position of individual members indi cates 8 tendency to cat all talk, for or against, short, as a delay of action prodnce an injuries uncertainty in the money market Several of the members are urging a speedy de cision. The Greek and the Tnrk are "spil ing for a fight" Turkey is infring ing upon the rights of Greece by try ingto absorb Epirus and Thessaly, with about 100,000 people belonging to the Greek race and Greece is not going to stand it Latest informa tion says that both countries are making active preparations for war. No place like Europe for war. EX-SENATOR CONKLING, according to a recent issue of the New York Eve ning Poet, in an address at a ban quet called President Cleveland a se cond AbraLam Lincoln, and predicts Cleveland's re-election in 1888 an al most unanimous vote. Cleveland's popularity with the people is growing daily and is the result of his conscien tous administrationand the clear fact that he faithfully endeavors to be the president of the people and not of a Party. THE Supreme Court of Pennsylva nia has made several important decis ions in reference to road taxes, which are of a general interest. In the first place all taxpayers mast be allowed to work oat their road tax if they de sire to do so. Again collectors of road taxes can not claim any commis sion upon taxes worked oat and which are consequently not cash receipts. AH such claims shall be rejected, as the working oat of a roadtax does not cause any additional work for the col lector nor for the treasurer, but only for the supervisor, who is amply re paid for his work. WILLIAM U. HENSXL was re-elected chairmau of the democratic State Committee at the meeting of said committee on last Wednesday. Sen ator Wallace had been spoken of for that position, but he declined the hon or in a letter to the committee, saying that he was not "in politics" at all. Consequently Mr. Hensel was unan imously re-elected. The majority of Pennsylvania's democracy, we are sure, is satisfied with the election. Hensel has always been an active and wide-awake chairman. He has of course, his faults, like all other men, inclnding the habitual growlers, who are continually harping on the lost battles ia Pennsylvania, but who would probably make a much worse record, were they in Mr. Hensel's shoes. —The stale jokes about onions and toe young lady's breath will now cease, for since the advent of the "Odorless" Kettle, such a thing as a bad odor is ] unknown. I OUR WASHINGTON LETTER. JANUARY 23,1886. The President this week has closed the doors of the White House and will refrain from entertaining on account of the death of Secretary Bay ard's daughter. He has signed the Presidential Succession Bill, which may properly be termed the Hoar Bill, though some severe critics assert that its being was the concept ion of anoth er's brain. He seems to have ho fears, regarding the circulating reports, that the Senate will antagonize some of lus selections and demand of him his rea sons for their appointment, for he takes the broad view thai what is dono is done for the best. Society has seldom received such a terrible shock as she did last week, up on the announcement of Miss Bayard's death. The news came so suddenly, that many who had seen her the night previous in the best of health at her re ceptiou, could hardly realize the truth of the report, but upon its confirmation , their doors were immediately closed, and the wives of the Cabinet officers, who had issued cards for their recep tions the present week, had them recall ed. She was an especial favorite in Washington Society, and since her m other's illness, had lifted from her shoulders the responsibilities incum bent upon a Cabinet officer's wife. Honored by all, particularly liked by the members of the Diplomatic Corps and eudeared to her numerous friends and acquaintances, on account of her many womanly attributes and lovable traits of character, she has left vacant a position which few can fill. The extreme cold wave which swept over the entire country and embraced even the sunny climes of Florida, gave to Washington a carnival of sleighing, which was unprecedented for its duration. One good week of sleighing is a novelty at the capital, and those who were blessed with run ners availed themselves of the pleasure in store for them. Pennsylvania ave nue was alive with sleighs from morn till night, and it was a common sight to see the President's span, draw ing an elegant sleigh, in which were snugly bundled Miss Cleyeland and her guests at the White House. Secretary Whitney who had been told that Wash ington seldom was visited by a snow storm of respectable size, was astonish ed at the fallacy, and immediately tele graphed to Brewster of New York for his elegent cutter. He and his wife were among the notables who glided up and down the avenue. A caruival, in which were congregated the plebeians and patricians was held, the middle of the week and the streets were packed with spectators, who looked enviously upon the favored few. I have noticed here the arrival of var ious associations whose interests repre sent those of the west and south-west, in relation to the improvement of the western water-ways—those of the Mis sissippi Valley. Water transportation is the sole check to railroad combina tions, and it would be well for Congress to giye this matter important consider ation. These associations are repre sented by men of broad views and earn est convictions, and will force Congress to recognize the great benefit the public will derive from an improvement of the father of rivers and its priudipal afflu ents. The legal circles of the city are now in a state of excitement, and considera ble feeling has been manifested at the attitude of the Senate towards Judge Merrick's confirmation. Though his nomination to the District bench lias been presented to the Senate and bears earlier date than that of either Commis sioner Webb or Marshall Wilson, yet these two gentlemen liaye been confirm ed tn their positions by the Senate, and Judge Merrick has not. The opposi tion arises amongst those members of the District Bar who were and are still aspirants to the office, which he was selected to fill. It is said Senator Ed munds is the leader of the opposition in the Senate, upon the legal ground that a pre-existing unwritten law is stHl in force against the confi mation of ap pointees over sixty years of age. It bears no weight however as Judge James, who was appointed by ex-Presi dent Hayes, a member of the same court, was over sixty and the Senate confirmed the nomination. Thefriends of Judge Merrick called for a meeting of the Bar Association, Wednesday, and by appropriate resolutions, the Bar Association endorsed his nomination. Both houses of Congress seem to have recovered from that lethargy usu ally following the Holiday vacation, and the members have awoke f;ora their profound sleep, and are actively awake to the interests or their constit uents and the great questions of nation al import. In the Senate the Silver Bill has monopolized this week and has been argued pro and con. Senator Tel ler occupied the floor last Monday and spoke in favor of the coinage of silver. He was the first republican Senator in this Congress who has addressed the Senate on this question. # Senator Mor rell spoke Wednesday against the coin age of silver. Many of the representa tive firms of New York have dispatch ed to Senator Evarts to exert his influ ence towards the suspension ot an un limited flow of silver. Both parties will remain neutral on the demonetiza tion of silver. Tuesday was given up to the powers of eloquence, when glowing tributes were paid to the mem ory of ex-President Garfield. The House has been occupied the whole week with bills of a promiscuous char acter. —ln case of hard cold nothing will relieve the breathing so quickly as to rub Arnica & Oil Liniment on the chest.

Johnson, of Erie, befriended a poor little girl by taking her to her home. The girl grew up, married well and removed to Missouri. Subsequently Jfrs. Johnson's husband died and creditors seized the property. The old lady was driven to the poor house, and the paper containing the occurrence found its way, wrapped around an express package, to Glass gow. Mo., and fell into the hands of Jfrs. W. L. Gilchrist, the woman who in early life had been so kindly treated by J/rs. Johnson. Mrs. Gilchrist started for Erie on the first train and arriving at the latter place she soon had her old friend out of her poor-house quarters, and is now being kindly cared for in Missouri. —NOT Extensive advertising but gen uine merit has placed McDonald's Im proved Ltver Pills at tho head of the list, the most exacting, scupulous care exercised in selection of materials, the highest attainable chemical skill em ployed in their manufacture, and sold on an honest guarantee.

HUNTINGDON, Jan. 24.—Serious trouble is apprehended in Carbon Township, this county, in the efforts of the tax collector to secure the overdue taxes. The citizens of the township are principally miners, who have been out of employment for several months in consequeuce of the failure of one of the leading coal companies there. The majority of the tax-payers have refused for three successive years to pay the county judgements which are entered against the disaffected portion of the township, and last year when the col lector went to'make seizures the resi dents threatened to lynch him and made preparations to execute their threats. They caught the collector and compelled him to chew up the writs and swallow them, after which they gave him a limited time to get out of the township, or to go to this city and claim exoneration from the County Commissioners. The settlers refuse to pay the county tax on the ground that they receive no benefit from the county. The collector will apply for a posse of sufficient force to aid him in carrying out the executions on those whom the Commissioners refuse to exonerate. • J/UST Go.
