Renova aca. Bellefonte, Pa., April I, 1898. What Mylin has to Say of the Capitol Business Like Methods. Auditor General Mylin Says They Should Frevail. When a patriotic representative saw Au- ditor General Mylin and asked him for an expression of opinion as to the probable final settlement of the capitol building trouble he declined at first to make any utterance, since the matter is so soon to come before the courts. Further urged to give some explanation of the atti- tude of the majority members of the com- mission, for publication he said : “I expressed my views to the corre- spondent of a western newspaper nearly four weeks ago. I have had no occasion since to change them.’”’ The auditor gener- al’s views as then given are as follows : I am still in hopes that the new capitol building will be completed for the use of the legislature when it meets in January next. Had the commission not been in- terfered with by useless and senseless legal proceedings, stimulated by those high in authority out of wounded vanity, the con- tract for the building of the capitol would have been let long ago, and workmen be now busy in laying the stone. Better still, had a business like method of selecting an architect been adopted in the first instance immediately after the passage of the law authorizing the building of a capitol, instead of following vagaries of a played-out architect who now makes a precarious living as a professor in one of our colleges, the people of the State would have been spared the shameless ado about the building of a capitol and it would be now half finished. However, that opportunity is past and gone. It has all along been the intention of the commission to try and build a capi- tol suitable to the character of the build- ing and dignity of the people of the State. At last the bids are opened and they run from $1,385,000 to $489,000 in round numbers. The largest bid sizes up about to the cost of the capitol of the little State of Rhode Island, comprising three counties. It is built of marble and will make a very beautiful building, worthy of the State. It is hoped that on account of the low price of materials and labor our new capi- tol could be built within the amount ap- propriated, but it looks now as though we would be disappointed in that belief and it may result in putting up a building with granite or marble base, some sort of brick and marble or granite trimmings about the windows and doors, which will not be un- like some of the large railroad depots in the country. I don’t think it will make a creditable building, because it’s too cheap. Still it may fire the heart of the terra cotta states- man. There is one point that seems to be en- tirely forgotten by the distinguished critic of the commission in his last pronunciamen- to. which he published first to the world before it could be presented to the board of commissioners, a little want of courtesy that needs only to be mentioned to be dis- posed of. When, on a certain occasion, soon after the organization of the board, when everything: was running along ac- cording to the wishes of the governor, the smallness of the appropriation was discuss- ed and it was generally admitted to he small, but the executive, as he always is, was equal to the emergency. He suggested that electric lighting, heat- ing, plumbing, mural decorations and other furnishings could be put in by con- tract through the medium of the board of public buildings and grounds, composed of the governor, state treasurer and auditor general, thus aiding $300,000 or $400,000 towards the building of a capitol above the $550,000 appropriated be the legislature. This, no doubt, was another sleek way of hoodwinking the public. Too many of the people who have not kept close watch of the legislation on this subject and subse- quent proceedings are not aware or prob- ably have forgotten that the scheme of the governor was to build five separate build- ings, to wit : Legislative building, building for audit- ing and treasury and for supreme and su- perior courts of the State ; building for de- partment of internal affairs ; building for department of agriculture and other de- partments ; historical building for the his- torical and scientific collections of the State, the adjutant general and other officers, and a public hall. This, of course, would have required the digging up of the capitol grounds and the cutting down of many of the old trees to find room for these buildings. ‘When done and all completed it would have looked like an Italian village minus a great chieftain. The estimate cost of the architect amounted to upward of $3,000,- 000, which, with the experience builders have with architects’ estimates, ought to be multiplied by two to get at the exact cost of the proposed legislative building with the two wings added for departmental work. It was the judgment of the commission that a legislative building, erected on the plan of the old building, but larger, to suit not only the present but the future demands, with room for the addition some day in the future of tue two departmental buildings would be more acceptable to the people. It would cost less to build, less to take care of when built, and would be more convenient for the public. They acted simply in the interest of the public in the same manner as if it had been their own private business. I spurn the intimation that there were jobs in it. It is only those who have had experience in jobbery that are ready to cast a stigma upon their peers and try to black- en their character. For my part, and I speak for my colleagues as well as myself, we stand ready to have all kinds of jobbery investigated. . \ “Lay on, Macduff, and damned be he whe first cries ‘Hold, enough!’ 7’— Patriot. The Political Pot. The present year will not be lacking in political interest. In twenty-five states of the union elections for Governor will be held, and these elections will serve to throw much light upon national issues. Gover- nors and State House officers are to be elected in Alabama, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Georgia, Idaho, Kansas, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Nevada, North Dakota, Oregon, Pennsyl- vania, Rhode Island, South Carolia, Ten- nessee, Texas, Wisconsin and Wyoming. In the above list of. states every section of the country is represented. Rhode Island’s state election will occur in April, Ala- bama’s in August, Arkansas’s in September and Georgia's in October. The remaining ones will occur in November. With this outlook ahead, there is not apt to be much idleness among the politicians.—Ex. Sugar-Eating Nations. The sugar crop of the world amounts in a normal year to about 8,000,000 tons, of which the larger part, about 4,500,000 tons comes from beets and the balance, 3,500,- 000 tons, from sugar cane. Of the latter the largest proportion comes from the West Indies and a large amount from the Island of Java, says the New York Sun. Among the countries producing beet sugar, Germany comes first, with about one-third of the world’s crop ; then Aus- tria with aboutas much ; and then France, Russia and Belgium and Holland together, with substantially the same quantity. In respect of the production of beet sugar in the United States, there has been a vast increase since the establishment of the MeKinley tariff in 1890. The year pre- vious the American product was 2,800 tons. Two years later it was 12,000 tons. Four years later it was 20,000 tons. Last year it was 43,000 tons, and the product is on the increase. The McKinley tariff estab- lished between July 1st, 1891, and July 1st, 1895, a bounty to be paid by the Unit- ed States government to sugar producers, with a view of stimulating the industry and compensating those engaged in it for the changes made in the duty upon im- ported sugar. ’ Among scientists the opinion has been general that a moderate amount of sugar, like a moderate amount of salt, should en- ter into the dietry of the people of each na- tion ; but it is only when the figures of the consumption of sugar are examined that it is seen that the quantity consumed varies radically, and it is a curious fact that in those countries in which maritime spirit— the spirit of navigation, commerce, travel and colonization—is strong there is a very consideerble consumption of sugar per cap- ita ; whereas in those countries in which these qualities are predominant among the inhabitants the consumption is smaller. In England, first among the maritime na- tions of the world, the consumption of sugar is 86 pounds a year for each inhabi- tant. In Denmark it is 45, in Holland 31, in France 30, and in Norway and Sweden 25, whereas in Russia it is only 40, in Italy 7, in Turkey 7, in Greece 6, and in Servia 4. The consumption of sugar seems to have very little connection with or relation to the production of sugar ; for in Austria, the sugar product of which is large, the av- erage consumption is only 19 pounds, while in Switzerland, in which there is no production to speak of. it is 44. And an- other curious phase of the matter is that there is a great disparity in the consump- tion of sugar in the two tea drinking coun- tries, England and Russia. The large amount of sugar consumed in France is at- tributed in part to the fact that the French confectioners and candy makers, and more especially those doing business in the city of Paris, use in their trade enormous quan- tities of sugar in a year, adding abnormally to the average consumption of sugar in the French republic. Barial Place of Patrick Henry. Not in Richmond, But in Charlotte, Where he Lived, One Line on His Tomb. Every now and then we see in some newspaper the query, ‘‘“Where is Patrick Henry buried ?”’ and tourists at Richmond constantly ask to be shown his grave, with the mistaken idea that it isin that city, where much of his public career was passed. Few people, comparatively, know that the man who acquired the title of ‘‘The Tongue of the Revolution’ lies in a quiet grave on the estate in Charlotte county where he formerly lived. Over him is a marble slab inscribed with the one line: ‘‘His Fame His Best Epitaph.” The estate lies on the Staunton River, thirty-eight miles from the town of Lynch- burg, near the border line which separates Charlotte and Campbell counties. It de- rived its name of Red Hill from the pecu- liar color of the soil in that vicinity. When Patrick Henry bought the place it comprised about 3,500 acres. The land is rich—there was a saying in the neighbor- hood that poor land and Henry could never be mentioned together—corn grows there as high as a man on horseback ; there is a general air of smiling fields and abundant prosperity. Its situation in early times was very remote. Neighbors were very few, one of the nearest being the celebrated John Randolph of Roanoke, who lived in his chosen solitude fifteen miles away. Red Hill is now owned by Henry’s grandson, William Wirt Henry, a clever cultivated gentleman of the ‘‘old school.” He has in his possession some most inter- esting relics of his celebrated grandfather, including the desk he always used, which still contains his letters from Lafayette, Washington, Madison, and other great men of early days; the large, round backed chair in which Patrick Henry died, and a portrait of him by the elder Sully, under which hangs a yellow slip of paper signed by chief justice John Marshall and several others of his friends, testifying to the faith- fulness of the likeness.— Philadelphia Press. Just What He wanted. One of the first men to reach San Fran- cisco with a hoard of Klondyke gold was an Irishman named Finnegan, who had been very poor before he struck it rich, and who, consequently, was unfamiliar with many ordinary usages of a life of lux- ury. ‘Oi say, yezkin bring me two dozen oys- ters,”” he said, airily, as he took a seat in one of the finest restaurants in Frisco. The oysters were soon set before him, and Finnegan looking about him for some- thing to put on them, and hardly knowing what the something should he, spied a bot- tle of Tabasco, and proceeded to season the bivalves not wisely but toe well. Impaling an oyster upon his fork, he thurst it into his mouth, then leaped to his feet with a terrific roar of pain, and be- gan dancing about and yelling like a mad- man. “‘See here !”’ cried the proprietor rushing to the table, ‘keep still, or I'll put you out!’ *‘P-p-put me out, is it? Oi wish yez would put me out!’ yelled Finnegan. ‘Me insides is blazin’ loike a match-fac- tory !"’—Hairper’s Bazar for April. DISCOVERED BY A WOMAN.—Another great discovery has been made, and that too, by a lady in this country ‘‘Disease fastened its clutches upon her and for sev- en years she withstood its severest tests, but her vital organs were underminded and death seemed imminent. For three months she coughed incessantly, and could not sleep. She finally discovered a way to recovery, by purchasing of us a bottle of Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consump- tion, and was so much relieved on taking first dose, that she slept all night ; and with two bottles, has heen absolutely cured.

Subseribe for the WATCHMAN. Divers on the Maine. Robert Doe, of Warren, and Hal Living- stone, of Erie, two divers who have been working on the Maine, passed through Williamsport Thursday night on their way home. While there they were interviewed by a reporter of the Bulletin. Mr. Doe stated that all the big guns had been re- moved from the Maine. Most of them are still on the lighters. In raising the guns compressed air is employed. There have been from thirty to forty men employed about the Maine. They went down to work nearly every day for the past two weeks and have done an immense amount of work in that time. Havana harbor teems with sharks and some of the bodies recovered were horribly mutilated by them. They do not bother the divers on account of the electric light carried by the men. Mr, Doe possesses an interesting relic in the form of a pocket clasp knife, which was taken from the pocket of one of the drowned sailors. He also has several photographs of the wreck and surroundings. Mr. Doe and Mr. Livingston left Key West last Saturday. They said the divers employed ahout the ship were closely con- fined and were not allowed to talk on the subject to outsiders. Several were sent back to New York on that account. Some time next week Mr. Doe will leave for League Island, where he will join the Columbia. In regard to the sufferings of the starv- ing Cubans, they stated that it was im- possible for the papers to publish the con- dition of the reconcentrados. They are in the greatest misery. If some one should throw a banana peel upon the sidewalk it is eagerly snatched up by little children. One poor woman too weak from want of food to move, sank down on a street cor- ner, with her babe. She was removed to the hospital.

A million bobolinks killed last year ! Four million other birds slaughtered in the same year---and for what? That their torn and distorted bodies might be flaunted in the headgear of American woman-kind ! These are no guess-work figures, but the official report of the Audubon Society of Massachusefts. And what does it mean ? It means five million voices stilled in Na- ture’s avian choir. Five million flashes of cheeriness and gladness taken from human life ; and millions of other young lives doomed to starvation or prey in order that the plumaged corpse of the murdered moth- er bird may be rent by a milliner and jam- med in hideous shapelessness in milady’s at ! Ah, milady, is there no efficacy in these desolating figures? Is there no mercy in your heart, no conscience in your make-up, no sentiment in your soul? Can you enjoy the finest opera when you think that the killing of the birds with which you and your sisters are crowning your beauty is gradually silencing the grand oratorio of the forest and the fields ? A birdless country ! A voiceless forest ! What a desolation it would be! And yet that is just what tkis country is coming to if the song birds of our land are to be kill- ed off at the rate of five millions a year in order to gratify feminine vanity and keep women ‘‘in style.”’ What a grewsome, hideous, conscience- less ‘'style” it is that murders melody and silences the lark that sings from Heaven’s gate ! ——Bishops Walden and Goodsell, both of whom are ripe in years and both of whom have witnessed the waste, misery and destruction of war, set an excellent example in their remarks before the Meth- odist conference at Chester, counseling pa- tience and the pursuit of peace. ‘‘The influence of the church should be on the side of peace,’’ said Bishop Walden. “There is enough influence on the other side.” ‘“We are men of peace,’’ said Bish- op Goodsell, ‘‘and we cannot see this glor- fous country of ours descend to the level of those European nations who grab each other by the throat for the sake of gaining a little more territory. Our cause must be declared a righteous one before we re- sort to the sword.”’ It is safe to say that if the leading clergy- men of our denominations follow the judi- cious and conservative course of these two Methodist Bishops the sword won’t be drawn by the United States until it is drawn in a righteous cause. With the religious bodies of the country counseling peace the fiery jingoes will not he able to precipitate a causeless war. Dig Worms for Food. Horrible Plight of the Starving Reconcentrados in Cuba. Dr. Frank Chado, a colonel in the Cuban army, who arrived to-day from Havana, weighing 95 pounds less than when he left two years ago, said : “I have heard something of the stories published in this country of the distress in Cuba and of the thousands that have died and are dying of starvation. Nothing that has been published, that could be pub- lished, could tell the story as it really is. I know of my own knowledge that in many sections of Cuba they are digging up the earth for the worms that they may find. It is not everyone who is able to dig. Most of the people are so weak that they are un- able to move. They are dying by the thousands, not the men who are doing or hope to do the fighting that eventually must end in triumph, but the poor women and children and the reconcentrados. Ruin is everywhere visible.” A REAL CATARRH CURE. — The ten cent trial size of Ely’s Cream Balm which can be had of the druggist is sufficient to demonstrate its great merit.

One of the biggest stampedes yet record- ed in the Klondike was occasioned on February 12th by a very rich strike on the divide between the bigand little Skookum. The strike was made in bench diggings, 300 or 400 feet above the level of the gulches. Pay dirt running from $1 to $35 to the pan was found. Following the announce- ment of the strike occurred a stampede from Dawson of immense proportions and. the entire ridge was staked outin a short time. A new strike is also reported on Lewis river which promises rich results. 43-12-1y The First School Teachers. When Spain obtained possession of Louisi- ana by the transfer of the colony by Louis XV, King of France, to Charles III., King of Spain, the latter conceived the idea that a good way to inculate Spanish ideas into the minds of the youths of Louisiana would be to have them instructed in the knowl- edge of the Spanish language. With this end in view, therefore, in the beginning of the year 1772, during the administration of Gov Unzaga, he sent to New Orleans, at his own expense, a priest and two assistants to instruct the children of the province in the knowledge of that language. With the ex- ception of the educational labors of the French Ursuline nuns, who had come to New Orleans in 1727, and who were estab- lished in their convent on Conde and Ur- suline streets, and who taught the female children of the colony, these Spanish teach- ers were the first to impart to young Louis- ianians the instruction usually imparted in schools. —Do not be deceived by the advance warm weather of spring and put in the gar- den crops toosoon.
