ft* piiiiu-im gaunt at. TNURSDAY, ARITLL 7TII, 1887. Published by r7 A. BU MILLER. WILLIAM S. PIERCE, Associate Judge of the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia, died on Monday of heart disease. He was highly houor. Ed by all his associates and had just entered upon his third term as Associ ate Judge, to which he was elected by Republicans and Democrats, though being a republican himself. SENATOR SHERMAN is at present on a roundtrip in the South preteuding to convince himself of the industrial prog ress of that part of the country. The sly old fellow feeds the Southern peo ple lots of taffy and takes particular care not to use any bloody shirt lan guage. Rnt the people there knew something about John before he hon ored them with his hypocritical pres ence and they are quite sure that the visit of the old Republican politician is simply his initiatory step of the presidential campaign of 1888. Selah! THE CENTENNIAL of the Constitution of the Unites States was recently dis cussed by the committee in charge ot the arrangements and representatives of the papers of Philadelphia in a conference held in the Continental Hotel. The main question at hand was the manner of raising the necess ary funds to defray expenses. Though Congress voted an appropriation of SIC 9 ,000 for the purpose, it adjourned without final actioD and the committee must now depend upon the financial help given by the several states in the Union. Delaware, Connecticut and Massachusetts have already responded to the call and Pennsylvania is expect ed to follow suit. A bill favoring an appropriation to the centennial is now before the respective committees in both houses of the state legislature. The programme will consume three days, to be arranged as follows: First day military parades, second day industri al parades, third day general jubilee with addresses, etc. ABOUT the constitutionality of ap portioning the state into congressional districts seven years alter the decenni al census, ex-Attorney-General Palm er writes to the Wilkesbarre Record this evening as follows: "The consti tution commands an apportionment immediately after each United States decennial census. To be literally o beyed a special session of the leg islature in the ceusus year ought to be held, regular sessions being biennial, unless a regular session chance to oc cur at that time. No one ever con tended for such a severe construction Immediately does not mean instant, ly, but as soon thereafter as the legis lature may convene. The framers of the Constitution expected a new ap portionment every ten years, but the failure on the part of the legislature to perform this act works no repeal of existing apportionment laws until sup plied by new. The old laws are oper ative, aDd members elected in con formity with them are certainly enti tled to seats in congress." THE local elections in the western states on Tuesday resulted as follows: The election for associate judge of the supreme court in Milwaukee was a democratic victory, Harlow S. Ortou, being re elected. In Milwaukee coun ty the democrats and republicans placed a fusion ticket in the field a gainst the labor party. The fusion candidates forjudge of the circuit court and of the superior court carried the day by 2000 majority In Kansas the women availed themselves very generally of their newly acquired pri vilege of suffrage. At several points women were elected to membership on the school boards. At Dubuque, lo wa, the Knights of Labor ticket made a full sweep, wtile in Chicago, 111., labor was largely outvoted and Roche (republican) was elected by about 28, 000 majority. The municipal election in Toledo, Ohio, have a mixed result, the republicans electing their candi dates for mayor, police commissioner, prosecutor, city solicitor. The demo crats have the judge and water works trustee and the school board. The board of aldermen is tie. In Denver Col., the indications are that the re publicans elected the mayor. St.Lou is, Mo., was carried by the democrats. In Michigan the republican plurality on the state ticket will be about 0000, while the prohibitory amendment was defeated by about 3,500. EASTER EGGS form an important fac tor in making the Easter holidays a season of happiness and joy. Few however are aware of the deep mean ing which lies in the time honored custom of presenting Easter eggs. In looking at the etymology of the word "Easter'' we find that it has its ori gin in the Anglo-Saxon word Eastre, fromOfitara,a goddess of light or spring in whose honor the people of the an cient World celebrated the equinoctial season, by giviDg colored eggs to their friends to remiod them that like the egg contains the germ of life so nature is being awakened to new life in the spring of the year. Later on, the first christian workers endeavored to har monize the old heathen usage with the christian religion by connecting another and more important lesson with the former celebration. The Eas ter festival was subsequently observed by the church in commemoration of Christ's resurrection and the Easter eggs continued to figure as part of the programme, but were used as an il lustration of the thought that as slum bering life in the egg only needs help to be awakened, so has the world through the death and resusrrection of our Saviour gained everlasting life. This is the deeper meaning of the eas ter egg, and it will be a profitable less on for parents to give to their children along with the eggs on Easter mora iag. THE bili introduced by Representa tive Shaeffer, of Clinton county, en titled an act to secure to laborers a lien for their work and labor done in nnd upon and about the cutting, peeling, skidding, hauling, sliding, banking, driving and running ot saw loga,squar ed timber, prop timber, hoop poles, railroad ties.bark and other timber and lumber, passed the House finally on Tuesday morning. The hill will meet the heatty approval of all lumbermen. In the afternoon session a number of bills were passed finally, among them the one authorizing the councils of the boroughs of this commonwealth to reg ulate and fix the amount of license to be paid by persons or firms engaged in the business of auctioneering within the limits of the same. The bill requiring the payment of certain premiums to the fire depart ment of cities and incorporated boroughs by fire insurance companies not organized under the laws of this commonwealth, but doing business therein for the ielief of disabled firemen and regulating the disbursement there of, also passed by 144 yeas to 23 nays.

A. D. 1887, I liaye appointed and designated and do here appoint and designate, FRIDAY, THE 22D DAY OF APRIL, A. D. 1887, AS AIIBOR DAY. And Ido earnestly recommend to the people of the Commonweatlh that they devote the whole or at least a portion of the said day to the Trees and Shrub bery wherever it may be proper and convenient so to do. Let school directors, teachers, and scholars unite in making it a day for the adornment of the grounds surround ing the school houses thiougliont the Commonwealth. Let the people of our towns and villages make it a day far the planting of trees along their streets Let the people in our rural regions see to it that their highways are beautified by the planting of trees upon Mieir bor ders. Let famlies observe the day in the planting of trees and slirubl erv in the grounds surrounding their homes. Let the farmers see to it that the waste places on their farms are turned to profitable account by the planting ot timber, nut, and finit trees thereon. Let the people understand that upon the general observance of this cap, and the practice results which arise there from. in large measure depend the con tinuance of regular seasons of rainfall the tempering of our climate, the beau ty of our homes and highways, the tim ber supply of the future, and a remun erative return for labor bestowed upon lands not otherwise productive. The observance of Arbur Day is be coming general in many of our states; its necessity is recognized by those who have g>ven the greatest care and study to the subject; and its practical use fulness is tested by all who liaye en gaged in it. In case the day herein designated should be unsuitable in any portion of the Commu wealth let an adjournment he had to some future day which will suit the climate and convenience of the locality.

By the Governor : JAMES A. BEAVER. CHARLES W STONE, Secretary of the Commonwealth. WASHINGTON LETTER (From our regular correspondent.) WASHINGTON, April 4, 1887. Probablv never before in the history of the United States Treasury Depart ment has a Secretary been appointed who was so universally popular as is its new head. Not tlie faintest sound of criticism or complaint of Mr. Fair child is to be heard from any source. When the first rumors of Secretary Manning's resignation were circulated about the Department,the wish was ex pressed by his subordinates on all sides that the Assistant Secretary would be promoted to succeed him. Without discussing such profound questions as Mr. Fairchild's financial policy, it can be. truly said that not in years has there been a Secreary ot the Treasury so heartily congratulated,and never licfore did a Secretary open his doors to shake hands and receive the personal congratulations of those under him, even down to the lowest rank. It was in last September, during the abseuce of Secretary Manning and cer tain other important officials, that Mr. Fairchilct, as Acting Secretary of the Treasury, performed an immense a mount of taxing brain work. It was at a period which was probably the bus iest in tiie history of the Department. He performed his difficult task with such marked ability and energy tfir.t it could not be otherwise than win for him the admiration and confidence of the country at large as well as of the President, It is said that Mr. Cleve land then made up his mind that in the event of Secretary Manning's perma nent retirement from the Cabinet the man who had for so long and so ably been the practical Secretary of the Treasury aljould be rewarded for such distinguished merit. The appointment of Mr. Fatrchild is also an evidence that the strong, con servative financial policy under which the country has passed from an era of profound depression to the eye of a new period of prosperity and hope is to he continued for the remaining two years of tho present administration. 1 lie ef fect of his promotion will be to prevent any injurious agitation of the money market, such as might have occurred if a man in whom the public had less con fideuce had succeeded Mr. Manning. Now current values will not be dis turbed oy the smallest fraction. Ev erything inside and outside of the De partment will move OD without a rip ple-, and, except that Mr. Fairchild has no taste for the practical work of poli tics and will not allow such matters to trespass upon his time, tfierp will be nothing to mark the transition from the old Secretary to the new. The Inter-State Commerc3 Commis sion has organized,located temporarily, petitioners have appeared before it and it has had its first discussion oyer some of the intricate sections of that compli cated piece of legislation which it is ex pected to mafic plain. The Commis sioners are flooded with applications for office. Rvery state in the Union comes to them for favors of this kind, and ev.- ery incoming UJ3U brings them more and more trouble of thig kind, while all day long the corridors leading to their offices are filled by a stream of place hunters with anxious faces. The Commission is not authorized to employ a clerk or a messenger without the approval of Mr. Lamar, the Secre tary of the Interior, and their bills of expenses will not be paid unless endors ed by him. The Commissioners seem to lie economically inclined, and in stead of riding about the city in car riages, they may be seen walking or us ing the street cars. The peremptory closing of the Wash ington barrooms on Sunday under the new ruling of the Commissioners of the District, promises to be successful. Last Sunday nearly every establish ment dedicated to the liquor trallic was hermetically sealed, and the few who took chances were so harrassed that they will in future acquiesce in the es tablished ordinance. The Sunday drink ing in Washington has been fearfully great, and of course its results have been proportionally disastrous. The temperance people are jubilant oyer the success of the Commissioners in virtually suppressing the sale of liquor in the saloons on Sunday, and a certain District Judge lias gone a step further. In the case of a hotel-keeper brought before him, he decided that a landlord could neither furnish liquor to his guests in their rooms nor wine at the table on Sunday.

CHICAGO, April 3. — Six thousand five hundred carpenters employed by various contractors and shop owners throughout the city and suburbs will cease work to-morrow, and building op erations in this com ty will be suspend ed indefinitely. The leaders of the car penters, who after a long struggle last summer failed to carry out their de mands for eight hours and an increase of wages, decided then to renew the contest, and think that now, when building enterprise is reviving and car penters are wanted, the time lias come to make employers yield. —Now that sudden and violent changes of weather jccur every twenty four hours, almost everyone has a troublesome cold, which if neglected, may produce results that may trouble von for the remainder of your life.

AUSTIN, TEXAS, April I—State Sen ator Woodward, of Callioup county, has received a statement from Atasco r sa county sworn to by four responsible citizens and endorsed by the county judge, sheriff and county clerk, giving the names of nineteen families in pre cints three, liv e and six of that county, whom the affiants declare are in a con dition of starvation occasioned by the drought* The number of persons in each family is stated, showing a total number of 100 persons. The paper states that these families are unable to procure sufficient l'ood, and are now la sorting in some cases to eating carcass es of cattle that have died from starva tion and begging bread from their neigh bors to sustain life. Those who would aifl them if possible are themselves in distress, aqd haye nothing that can be spared. The signers of the statement appeal for aid from the legislature, but as nothing more can be expected from that source, it is Jeft for the generous and uioie fortunate of other counties to render such aid as they can. The state ment represent a a deplorable state of affairs, and concludes by saying that whatever is done should he done at once. A DRUGGIST'S VERDICT —W. E.
