FRIDAY, JUNK 10, 1837.
Judgo Gordon becomes Chief Justice
by tho death of Judgo Mercur. Tho
Governor will fill tho vnc.inoy by np
nolntmcnt. It is understood that he
favors Judgo Williams of Tioga.
Governor Heaver hna vctood sovoral
icnsion bills, but republican nows
)apcrs aro not making much noiso
about it. Tlioy howl vociferously how
ever, when a democratic president docs
tho samo thing.
The rovonuo bill which failed to bo
como a law because of tho neglect of
president of tho scnato to sign it, re
pealed tho tax on furniture, carriages,
watches cto. As another bill was pass
ed In Mav, and has become a law. re
pealing tho tax on these articles, tho
lailuro of tho general revenue bill does
not a n cot tins class oi property.
John Stowart of Chambersburc who
was candidato for Governor on tho In
dependent ticket in ? 883, is reported
as saying that if Governor Beaver ro
fuses to call an oxtr3 session to correct
the error in tho failure of tho roveuuo
bill, that Franklin county, which has
always given a republican majority will
undoubtedly go democratic.
Tho Times hbs undertaken to forco
Governor Beaver to call an extra seS'
sion of the legislature to pass tho reve
nue bill that failed through carelessness
or worse. It has telegraphed to every
senator and member asking if they are
willing to servo without pay. Many
have replied that they will not receive
pay, and it all agree to that, tho Gorer
nor win uavo to change his mind, as
he has announced his deteimination
not to recall the legislature. Whether
the bill failed through mistake or fraud
the republican party is responsible, as
they have control of eveiy branch of
the state government. What aro they
going to do about it T
CHIEF JUSTICE MERCUR.
DEATH OF THE EMINENT JURIST MONDAY
MORNING.
Chief Justico Mercur of the state
Supremo Court, died at tho residence
of his son at Wallineford near Phita
delphia, on Monday, after an illness of
ten days, lie was born at Towanda
May 28, 1818, and always resided there.
He graduated from the Jefferson col
lege, Uanonsburc. at tho aco of 24
lie read law in the offico of Judge
William MoKcnnon, of Pittsburg, Ho
was a delegate to the convention that
nominated John J. t remont tor presi
dent, and was a .Lincoln presidential
elector in 18G0. He was appointed
judge of the common pleas court of
Jjradiord county in lab'J, and was sub
sequently eleoted to fill the samo posi
tion tor a lorm ot '.en years.
In 1864 ho resigned and was eleoted
to Congress by the republicans, from
the district composed of Bradford,
Columbia, Wyoming, Suilivan and
Montour counties, his opponent being
Victor ii. noiett. in lHUO ho was
again elected, defeating Judge Elwell.
In 18G8 and 1870 he was reelected, the
last time defeating Captain Brockway
by only 124. In 1872 ho was elected
a lastice of the Supreme Court, and bo
came Chief Justice in January 1 883.
His term of ofiice would have expired
on January l, ibhs, and tho probabil
ities are that he would have been re
nominated for the Supreme bench.
His ancestors went to Bradford
county from Lancaster county, and his
early protessional career was spent in
that locality, whero ho had eminent
success at the bar, and was conspicuous
in politics. He was formerly a demo
crat, and as suoh took an active interest
in politics, and was elected to the
Thirtieth congress. Ho was a fro
quent delegato to state conventions
and a leading counsellor in the party,
The defection of David Wilmot, and
oiner circumstances beloro the war
changed the political complexion of
mat region and no became a republican
While in Congress Judge Mercur
served with distinction. Since his ele
vation to the bench his career has been
solely judicial, and he has been but
little known in politics, though his ad
vice was often sought and highly
valued by tho leaders of his party. He
leaves a reputation as a judgo of the
strictest integrity and purity.
His wife, a siater of Gen. W. H. II,
Davis of Doylestown, survives him
and he leaves a daughter and four sons
tho oldest of whom, Rodney A. is a
prominent young attorney at Towanda.
Thirty years ago the bar of Bradford
county embraced a number of attorneys
who were tho peers of any in tho state.
David Wilmot was on the bench, and
among thoce who practiced before
him were William Watkios, Edward
Oveston Sr., John 0. Adams, Ulysses
jviercur, William .Elwell, IS. W. Baird,
James Macfarlaue, George Sanderson
wno alter wauls removed to ocranton
C. L. Ward, David Cash and many
others. Most of tbeso finished their
earthly labors years ago, and for some
time Chief Justico Mercur and Judge
Elwell wero all that remained of this
brilliant circle of distinguished lawyers.
Tho death of tbo former leaves Judge
Elwell'tbo solo survivor of all thoso who
were prominont in Dractico when ho
was at tho bar.
Judgo Mercur's legal ability was not
inn umy uiauMjjiuBumj; unrnuiensiia
in ins nome uie no displayed many
traits ot character that mado him
popular and useful citizen. IIo was an
indulgent and affectionate father and
husband, and an active supporter of the
Epiecopsl church. IIo has fallen with
his armor on, and his memory will long
bo cherished by all whoso privilege it
wa iu aiiuw mm.
Extra Sess'on Likely.
AN INCIIEAS1NO DEMAND KOIt IT 1'ItOM
THE COUNTIES.
Misconceptions exist as to tho scopo
of tho rovonuo act which has been de
feated by the carelessness or design of
somebody, liio purposes oi the bill
wero to consolidate tho various rovonuo
acts, to make thorn oonform to the
Constitution and tho recent dcoisions
of the Supremo Court And to compel
corporations of all kinds that havo
interest-bearing securities to pay the
same tax on them as are paid on judg
ments nnd mortgages, etc, held by in
dividuals. As the State lias had more
than enough rovonuo to meet tho cur
rent expenses of the Commonwealth, a
provision was Inserted that half of the
tax on personal property of various
kinds should bo covered into tho vari
ous county treasuries nnd tho othor
half should go into tho State Treasury.
1 ho calculation of tho fra'mcrs of tho
law was that about S?350,000,000 of
money at interest held by trust com
panies nnd othor corporations escaped
taxation under tho Interpretations ot
tho rovonuo law of 1885 by tho Su
premo Court, which nt thrco nulls
wbuld roalizo a tax of $1,050,000. Last
year tho tax on personal proporty con
tributed to tho Stato Treasury nearly
!Si,2UU,uuu, whicli tho now aot would
havo increased to over 2,200,000.
Half of this amount would havo been
livcrted to tho County Treasuries nnd
tho Stato would accordingly havo re
ceived about 8100,000 less than it got
under tho old law. Thoro wna another
provision in tho bill which repealed tho
tax on furniture, pleasure carnagos and
(valches, which amounts to about 5100,-
000 a year, but a separato act has re
ceived tho approval of tho Governor
covering tbo same subject of taxation,
and tho rovenues of tho UJmmonwcalth
will consequently bo a little moro tho
next two years than thoy would have
been it tho now revenue act had be
como a law.
Tho oounties will bo great sufferers,
however, by tho failure of tho aot to
rcceivo tho sanction of tho (iovcrnor.
Iu view of tho largo interest thoy havo
in tho passage of tho unlucky rovonuo
bill and tho suspicious manner in which
it was killed tho demand for an extra
session is increasing, notwithstanding
Governor Beaver's attitude of opposi
tion. An extra session of two weeks
would cost tho Stato at tho highest
about 100,000, including 142,000 for
tho pay and mileago of members. Tho
Chief Clerks, Journal Clerks, Heading
Clerks, Resident Clerk and Senate
Librarian, aro required to servo with
out extra compensation at special ses
sions held in tho samo year of n regular
session. Tho other olliccrs and all em
ployes are paid by tho day. Times.
A charter was granted Friday of
last week to a stock company for an
elevated railroad iu Philadelphia. Tbo
capital stook is 5,000,000 and consists
of 10,000 shares of S50 each. Tho
president of tho company is John
Wanamaker. It is estimated that
every milo of railroad will cost at least
10,000.
WASHINGTON LETTEE
From our Kegular correspondent.
WAsaiNOTON, D.O., Juno 5th, 1887.
Laborers aro at work in ono of tho
Court yards of the Treasury building
excavating for tho now vault, for which
Congress appropriated 27,810. This
will bo tho largest single monoy vault
known. It is to be largo enough to
hold one hundred million silvor dollars
and its full capacity will doubtless be
tested by tho constant accumulation
from an annual production of not less
than twenty four millions of dollars.
The structure is to bo entirely under
ground ; nothing is to appear on tho
surface to indicate tho depository of so
much wealth. The vault will bo lined
with an iron case, and will be divided
into sixteen compartments separated by
iron lattice partitions. There aro to bo
no dark corners in this building : the
open lattice work is adapted so that
tn j eye can range through all tho com
partments nt ono glanco. The en
trance will be through the sub-basement
of tho Treasury building, which is at
all times thoroughly guarded, and a
dozen different men will be required to
open tho vault, several series of unlock
ing being necessary, and one person
will only have the secret of ono combi
nation lock. All tho known checks
and securities will be applied, and by
means of clockwork and electricity
there will bo somo of tho locks which
will open at certain hours of the day
only to tho Treasurer of the United
States.
Tho silvor dollars in their new habi
tation will bo piled up in canvas bags
holding 1,000 each, ono on top of tho
other, as is now dono in the existing
vaults.
Tho recent doaths, so close together,
of two prominent journalists, reminds
one oi tho deep swathe that has so
lately been cut into tho profession of
journalism. It is but a brief period
since Adams of the Washington Star,
and Hilly (Jopeland ot the Hew York
Journal of Commerco were taken al
most with pencil in hand, so suddenly
the summons came; and all theso men
tioned were not only connected by tho
bonds ot lellowship incident to a com
mon brotherhood, but wero more inti
matcly associated by ties of closest
friendship.
A prominent politician and member
of Congress now in the city, says that
for nine months in the year Washing
ton is tho prettiest and pleasantest
place in tho country, and only
needs better hotel accomodations and a
largo hall suitable for conventions, to
make it tho very place for the next and
succeeding .National Conventions.
As tho phvsieal bennt'ftH of Wnsh
ington are already beginning to be ap
preciated by the country, a glanco at
too eitorts being mado in tho direction
of moral cleanliness and beauty in tho
.Nations uapitol would not be amiss.
Tho Women's Teraperanco Union
has become a power in tho land, and
by moans of their steady adherence to
wen-devised plans ot action, and of a
persistence strikingly illustrative of
their courage in attempts to ameliorate
the condition of their fellow boingsj
tho women of this city havo at last
succeeded in entirely dosing tho bar
rooms hero on Sunday, not only in name
but in lact. Thoy aro also now en
gaged in nn endeavor to suppress the
exhibition of questionable pictures
used in advertising, which while thov
attract tho eye and thus servo their pur
pose, also exert a moro baioiui lutiu
ence in leading the imagination of our
youth into evil channels.
A Probation Agonoy, for tho benefit
oi hrst oiiondors, has been recontly es.
tabUsued, whereby unfortunate youth
who havo been brought before the 1 o
lico Court may bo afforded an oppor
tunity of bettering themselves, thus
witholding from them tho stigma of
conviction of crime, and sentence to
association of old criminal, and on
deavoring to proouro honest employ
ment for those in need.
A Womeu's Hefugo is in successful
operation, also, whore any may find a
welcoming, smiling and helpful hand
Wo havo cause for congratulation,
that thero is so much of good iu hu
manity, and that wo livo in an ago of
charitableness for tho sinner, as well as
of reprobation for tho sin.

OUR L0ND0 I LETTER,
London, May, 28th, 1837
The American invasion of London
has begun in r6al earnest, nnd oven
moro than is usual at this tlmo of tho
year. Tho Strand resembles Broadway
from Fourtconth Street to Thirty-fourth
Street, every otlior person you meet
seems to bo an American t and tho
long black winter, that is hardly pass
ed yet, for tho weather is still anything
but spring like, seems a dream, as tho
familiar faces reappear who greeted
mo a year ago in tho samo ptaco.
Notwithstanding tho weather, tho
London Season is already in full swing
and tho Soolety papers aro filled tylth
all sorts of concerts, balls and routs,
and coaching club parties taking placo,
and tho rao'ng Benson inaugurated by
tho "Derby" will form a procession of
important events.
Tuesday was tho tucon s birthday,
and boyond tho illuminations, which
aro customary in tho evening, very
littlo notico was taken of it, her Majes
ty being at Balmoral, in Scotland,
whore sho confined her reioic.ngs to
tho bestowal of small gifts upon tho
members of her househo'd with her
own hands.
Wednesday was Derby day with its
usual scene, which havo been so
often desoribed. Tho day was hardly
a fino one, consequently the attendnnco
was not ns great as last year ; tbo ex
citement, however, was immense on
tho discovery that a dark horse had
won tho ribbon. All tho Americans
in London wero there. Two coaches
went from tho American Exchange,
two from tho American Exhibition, and
ono from the "Columbia" Club (a now
American Club just instituted). On
tho latter coach was Major John M.
Burke, of tho "Wild West," who, with
his big "sombrero" and long hair was
mistaken by tho mass for "Buffalo Bill,"
and the feelings of the peoplo was
shown by the fact that their routo was
ono succession of cheers during the six
teen miles to the Derby courso and
back. If anything, tho exoitement was
increased by the fact that Major Burko
carried a bag-full of half-pence which
ho scattered liberally amongst tho
street arabs who thronged tho waysido.
At tho Drawing Itoora last week,
tho Queen, being indisposed, did not
attend, leaving tho Princess of Wales
to represent her.
Ihol nncess, accompanied by tho
Princess Maud attended by ono Lady
only and Colonel Gardiner, paid a sec
ond visit to tho American Exhibition
after the drawing room. Sho arrived
at about eight o'clook, paid for her ad
mission like anyone elso and went in
with tho crowd, one was discovered,
however, by Major Burko and Town
send Peroy, who carried out tho wishes
that sho should bo screened from obser
vation as much as possible, and bo allow
ed to remain incog.; to that end sho was
shown into a private box somo distanco
from tho Royal Box, where Bho re
mained until tho end of the "Wild
West" programme without being recog
nized. After tho performance, sho
visited Col. Cody in his tent, and drank
tea with him, and inspected the whole
of the camp, and after wandering
around the Exhibition and making a
fow trilling purchases, sho loft as quiet
ly as sho C3me, saying sho had passed
one oi toe pieasautest evenings ot her
life.
Among tho other visitors this week,
wero the tirand Uuko aud Grand
Duohess of Saxo Meiningen, tho oldest
itoyai Jilood in Europe, with the ex
ception of the Cologna family in Italy.

United States Minister, plenipotentiary
to the Court of St. James, paid a visit
to tbo Exhibition. He was visited in
his box by Mr. John R. Whitioy, Director-General
of tho American Exhi
bition, who presented him to M. Bar
tholdi, tho celebrated sculptor of tho
"atatue ot JUberty in JSew York Har
bour, and who is hero putting tho final
touches to his diorama of Now York
Bay, the building for which has just
been completed in tho centre of the
gardens.
In tho Court-yard in front of tho en
trance to tho main building has been
erected, by order ot Uirector-Uencial
Whitley, ono of tho houses which form
ed part of tho much-talkcd-of "old Lon-
don" at tho South Kensington Exhibi
tions, and winch was erroneously re
ported had been taken intact to Ameri
ca. It is to bo used as the box-office
for the "Wild West," thus forming a
striking and grotesque instance of tho
changes which time makes, and the
gateway to tho "Wild West" is now as
formerly through "old London"
"Imperial Osardcad and turned to clay
May stop a flaw to keep tho wind away."
The machinery is in place now. and
the huge engine which moves it is an
object of great interest. The flowers
aro springing up in tho gardens, and
the who.e Exhibition presents a gala
aspect. The visitors average over 30,
000 per diem, and tho complete success
both artistic and financial, of tho Exhi
bition is now conceded on every hand.
As an example of how great the

1 met tho other day Miss Dor ,thy
Dene, who has been painted into n
celebrity by Sir Froderiok Leigh ton,
anu pnotngrapned by ovcry photograph
er in hnuland, and was pleased and
gratified to find that, unliko most pro
fessional boautios, she is a very clover
nnd sensiblo girl. Sho told mo sho
had a number of offers to go to Ameri
ca, but did not intfiid accepting any of
tberu until after sho had fixed herself
still moro firmly on her pedestal in
England, nnd added experience to that
sho has already gained. She is under
tho impression, that Now York is more
critical cvan than London, nnd she
decs not propose to iisk making a fail
ure on one sido of tho water.
I was nt a groat gathering of tho
world of literature the other day, in
rooms in Upper Phllliraore-plooe, in
which Mr, Richard Dighton, the pub
lisher, beguiles tho todiurn of meeting
the author on tho warpath by figura
tively smoking tho pipe of peace with
him. Black was decidedly tho favor-
ito colour nmong tho ladies. Mrs Lov
ett Camoron, Mrs. Edward Kcnnard,
Miss Mario Corclll, Mrs. Stannard, Miss
M'Carthy, Miss llopworth Dixon,
Airs. Aloxandor, and numerous others,
woro all attired in this sombro hue. It
is truo that Lady Colin Campbell re
lieved tho prevailing dullness by bows
of yellow ribbou and an oxalted hat to
match. Mrs. Campbell Praod was
charmingly nttircd in soft grey i Lady
Wildo was resplendent in dove-oolorcd
silk. Mrs. Cash el Hooy, Miss Ethel
Coxom, Miss Nclllo Fortcscuo and
other ladies wero also present. Mr.
Rider Haggard who has latoly return
ed from Egypt was naturally tho hero
of tho hour.
Thero is a good story about Professor
Huxloy and his opinion of tho Bishops,
which is worth repoating. Some time
ago the Professor was lecturing before
his class nt South Kensington on tbo
structure nnd function of tho heart,
whon ho said that for a long timo after
ho commoncd his biological studies ho
was perplexed as to tho mitral valve of
tho heart, and could not remember
with perfect certainty on which side it
waB. At length a happy thought oc
curred to him. "Mitral was an adjeo-
tivo formed from "mitre,' tho capital
adornment of a bishop. Hence the
mitral vnlvo of tho heart becamo asso
ciated in his mind with the occupant
of an episcopal see. "And remember
ing," said he, "that tho bishops are al
ways on tho wrong side, I havo from
that day to this had uo difficulty in re
membering that tho mitral valvo of tho
hoart is on tho left side of tho organ."

down tho prices. You would be
astonished to see what a nice

Ice Cream Freezers.

It is almost an imiioss'oilitv to

out a mower. One of the great
objpetions heretofore has been
the price, but like everything
else, they have declined so ab to
bring them within the reach of
