Bellefonte, Pa., April 18,1902. THE SUPREME JOURNEY. Oh, what a night for a soul to go! The wind a hawk, and the fields in snow : No screening cover of leaves in the wood, Nor a star abroad the way to show. Do they part in peace, soul with its clay? Tenant and landlord, what do they say? Was it sigh of sorrow or of release 1 heard just now as the face turned gray? What if, aghast on the shoreless main ' Of Eternity, it sought again The shelter and rest o! the Isle of Time, And knocked at the door of its house of pain! On the tavern hearth the embers glow, The laugh is deep and the flagons low, But without, the wind and the trackless sky And night at the gates where a soul would go! — Arthur Sherburne Hardy. A MIDNIGHT ALARM. There are three policemen in Chicago who daily smoke 25 cent cigars. How they can afford to do so isa mystery to their brother officers. There are four or five residents along the lake shore who know the secret of the cigars, and one of these residents has told. One of Chicago's judges lives in Lake View. He has a 14-year-old son who keeps dogs. For the last two weeks some unknown miscreant has been going ahout Lake View streets throwing poisoned tidbits to every dog he meets. Dog owners have been alarmed thoroughly for the safety of their pets. The indge's son own a setter and three pointer pups. Up to ten days ago he kept them in ordinary open kennels. Then, with the poison and the stealing scare abroad. the boy put his pets inside a dis- used hen house. The house was a tight boarded affair with a large door opening outward from the side. Even after his dogs were housed thus the judge's boy feared for their safety. He resolved to ar- range a burglar alanm that would rouse the household in case anybody attempted to steal his pup possessions. The door of the kennel, as has been said; cpened outward. To a staple driven into the outward surface of the door a stout but thin wire was at- tached. ‘This ran through an auger hole, then past the woodshed and the side of the residence and found an end in the boy's bedroom. There it was fastened to the back of a chair which was nicely balanced with verv slight support npou its hind legs. An auxiliary wire ran to a great clock spring, which was wound up and in turn had heen attached to a bell that had a tone about seven fold that of the ordinary fire gong. The exercize of further boyish in- genuity bad so fixed it that upon the spring- ing of the alarm eight huge out-of-date vol- umes of the Edinburg Encyclopedia would go crashing from the top of a desk to the floor. The working of the alarm was the simplest thing imaginable, for a tug on the wire consequent upon the simple opening of the kennel door would siars a riotlike uproar. : All the members of the judge's family save the judge and his son were in Wiscon- gin. The judge liked the dogs as well as did his son. He examined the alarm and pronounced it good. The boy explained the mechanism of the affair to the neighbors and advised those of them who had dogs to go and do likewise. The judge likes a ight novel. Every evening he puts ona red dressing gown and lies down on a lounge in a room nexs his boy’s bedroom and there reads until after midnight. That hour has struck from the clock on the judee’s shelf on the night of July 31st. He was reading while the boy slept sound’y in his bed in the room beyond. Suddenly there was a scraping noise and then a crash that shook the old frame mansion like an explosion. Succeeding there came the sharp alarm uote of a bell] with the gong strokes beating a brazen tattoo louder and faster than ever pounded on a drumhead. Above it ail rose a howl from the next ¥OOin. “Dad, they are stealing my dogs!” Into the room hounced the hoy, with enough white flowing from his hastily pulled on trousers to make a good sized sail. The bell kept on ringing. “Come, George,” said the father as he grasped a heavy cane. The boy followed his father down the front stairs. out the front door and round the coruer of the house toward the kennel. Un his way through the vard the youngster picked up a hiick. An electric light glimmering through the shade trees showed the prog- ress of the march. The judge strode stern- Jy ahead, gripping his stick, his red diess- ing gown flapping about wildly in the night wind. The boy followed hiavely, though all ancovsciously he was flying a white flag. They passed the dining 100m and kitehen and made their way through the vegetable garden. Just before round- ing the corner of the kennel the formation ehauged from column into line, and the judge and his son advanced to the attack shoulder to shoulder. A howl of welcome from the throats of three pointers and a setter came from within the kennel at the faint noise of the approaching footsteps. The last stroke of the alarm bell, which had heat time to the march about the house, died away on the night air. The door of the kennel was undisturbed, the piudlock and chain were in place, and the pups withiv were joyful in their unbroken security. The judge looked at his son in disgust. “Some enemy hath done this, ’he said, ‘‘to make a fool of the old man.” There was a rattle and a clatter on the street. ‘The alarm bell had done its work and biougho the patrol wagon and a few eighbors. The judge made a lame ex- planation and said something to the police- men about cigars and secrecy. Then he went thoughtfully into the house. ; “My boy,” said the judge to his son, ‘whom have you told about this burglar alarm?”’ The boy mentioned the names of a few | neighbuois. : x “The wire is within easy reach of the ground, is it not?" ‘Yes, papa.’ ; “Did you tell the young woman next door who sits out late every night in the - hammock with the young man?’ ‘yen, papa.’ “Well, that’s where vou made a mis- take." —Fdward B.

The body of John Leek, an aged negro, who died six months ago, and which was turned over to a undertaker of Battle Creek, Mich, in order that he might test a new embalming fluid, has heen exhumed. It has the consistency of vulcanized rubber, and might readily pass for a statue of black marble,as the petrified flesh is hard enough to take a polish. There is not the slight- est trace of decomposition or wasting, the features retaining their fullness. The ex- perimenter says the fluid will preserve the body for centuries. Beggar Retires. Has Saved $12,000 —He Will Go to Italy and Enjoy His “Earnings.” Tender hearted persons in the Harlem police court on Wednesday were shocked when Francisco Gorgia, an aged, shrivelled and miserable looking Italian, was fined $5 for begging. The white haired old man looked appealingly about the room and, from long habit, put his band out, but quickly recovered himself and glancing un- easily at the magistrate, he brought forth a grimy old bag and counted out pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters until he had paid his fine. Then he paid $5, also in small change, to his lawyer. By this time a crowd was about him. To the astonish- ment of the court attaches and dismay of those who had sympathized with him, he produced a package containing $150 in bills and a bankbook on the bank of Rome, Italy, showing he had $12,000 on deposit there. Gorgia, who is sixty, says be will retire from ‘‘business.’’ He thinks a man should retire at sixty. . “I sent $2,000 to my daughter, Maria, last May. She’s soon to be married,” the old man chuckled. Gorgia bas been in this country thirty- five years, and was one of the first settlers in *‘Little Italy.”’ Soon after arriving in New York he hurt his hand, and, to make a living, got a hand organ. Hedid so well with it that when his hand got well he had no desire to work. From that time Gorgia and work have been strangers. Every Saturday evening he has been at 125th street and Third avenue, where he appealed to the sympathies of the shoppers. As he grew on in years his appearance be- came more and more decrepit, until to-day he is a bent, miserable object, seemingly suffering from some deformity. Eighteen years ago he went back to Italy where he married, returning two years lat- er to resume ‘‘business.”” He made sever- al trips to Italy since then, to put in the bank of Rome the money he begged in New York city. He lived in squalor in a single small room, and it is said he has lived on nothing but crusts of bread and stale beer, except when he got food without cost. Policeman Platt, who arrested him, says he plaved the role of beggar with wonder- ful skill. He would heg when pedestrians are passing,but when a policeman appeared he would begin his wheezy organ, chant in a mournful tone and look miserable. Gorgia told the lawyer, Benjamin Baker, that he would return to Italy and enjoy his wealth, as he cannot afford to pay $5 fines. Cure for Diphtheria. The Scientific American gives this receipt which the whole world shou!d know : At the first indication of diphtheria in the throat make the room close, then takea teacup and pour into it an equal quantity of turpentine and tar and then hold the cup over the fire so as to fill the room with the fames. The patient inhaling the fumes will .cough out the membraneous matter and diphtheria will pass off. The fumes of tar and turpentine loosen the throat and thus afford the relief that has baffled the skill of the physicians. Tourists. $33.00 to California Oregon and Wash- " ington.

Don’t mistake the cause of backache. To be cured you must know the cause. It is wrong to imagine relief is cure. « Backache 1s kidney ache. You must cure the kidneys. A Bellefonte resident tell you how this can be done. Mr. William Valance, east Lamb street, night watchman, says: ‘For 2 years or more off and on, I had trouble with my back and pains in the upper part of wy spine accompanied by Er rroatie feel- ing in my head and acute lameness right over my kidneys. At first I thought it was my liver but later found it arose from the kidneys not acting properly. I read of the many cures that had been made in Bellefonte by Doan’s Kidney Pills and [ got them at F. Potts Green’s drug store. ‘They stopped the annoyance from the kidneys and removed the lameness and aching in my back.
