Ills wife was with him until about eleven o'clock when she said sho would have to go down stairs and attend to her baking, Sho bad not been down long when Mr. Smith came down and asked for his razor, saj log that ho wanted to shavo himself. Mrs. Smith looki d for it, but did not find It, and then told him lie had hot tcr go back to bed, and sho would como and sit with him as soon as possible. In about an hour sho went to his room and found him dead. His death was no doubt tho result of heart failure. Dr. Brown was called In at once, but pronounced life ex. tlnct. Mr. Smith was 42 years old. He was a son of tho Into A. C. Smith, and at one time enjoyed a considerable legal practice. Ho was an eloquent speaker, and a courteous antagonist. Ills widow and three children survive him. The funeral took placo on Saturday Bt 10:30 o'clock, tho services being conducted by Rev. 8. W. Bears. Tho remains were Interred at Orangcvlllc. Tho following local appeared In W. Krlckbaum's paper two weeks ago, In tho Issue of May u. "Wo feel It a duty to call attention to tho tact that tho Senior editor of the Colum bian voted to put out two Democrats, Hon. O, R. Buckalew and John A. Funstnn and voted to put in three Republicans, J. C. Brown, Dr. Hebcr and L. 8. Wlntcrstcen, as trustees of tho Bloomsburg State Nor mal School. Tho question as It strikes us Is, why did George do this?" The question as It strikes us Is, what business is it of Krlckbaum's how wo vote at tho elections for officers of private corporations In which wo hold stock? Tho Normal School Is a private corpora tion. It has always been the endeavor of the trustees to keep politics entirely out of Us management. At the electl n held on May 5, to elect tru9tces,thcra was a con. test, and some changes wore mado In the board, but politics bad nothing to do with It. Any person holding stock has a per fect right to vote for whom he pleases; It supposed to bo the privilege of American citizens to manage their private liuslncss affairs in their own way, so long aa they do it honestly, and why Krickbaum should feci It a duty" to Inform the public how anybody votes for officers of a private corporation, we cannot understand. It has strnck a good many people as a pleco of Intermeddling impertinence. But tho fact is that the statement Is abso lutely false. Mr. Elwell had nothing what ever to do with tho oiitct, and no know- :lge of what was going to be done until very few hours before tho election, and did not vote at all. Of this fact W. Krlck. baum was Informed, and intimated that he would make a correction, but has failed to do so. We only allude to tbo matter now, because It was published from sinister in), tlves, and does the Normal school great in- justice. The first publication might have been a mistake; the refusal to correct that mistake after ho learned that it was such, makes the editor responsible for a malic ious lie. Council iTocceclliiif n.

DEMOCRAT, BLOOMSBURG, COLUMBIA COUNTY, PA. Hiucndn Bystcm 01 Dry cloactM. Last Monday morning J. R.

Tho following named persons wtro J present 10 witness luo operation anu unvoigi"" imt, tho system of heating and ventilation moro fully explained to tbemi Among tho members of the school board wore J.

Arment, Prof. Kline and Louis Bernhard. Janitor A. W. Fry had a tlltlo flro In ono of tho furnaces. Thero aro thrco furnaces In tho building to supply tho rooms with heated air. Tho cold air U conducted from tho outsldo of tho build ing by mammoth wooden conductors, tho air is drlyen over the beaters and Bent Into tho school rooms; the foul air of tho rooms Is carried by means of conductors down to tho cellar and through the closets. The closets aro formed of brick, being about four feet high and four wide and extend Ing tho length of the room; over this are arranged the stalls and urinals. Tho dry air passes through this brick receptacle and goes up a largo stack 87 feet high. Although the closets had been In use dur. Ing tho wholo winter and about two hun dred school chlldrcu having access to them yet all present Monday can testify that no odor could be detected. When tho depo sits wcro seen they wero found to bo but dry masses, with no perceptible odor. Mr. McCreery then poured about three pints of coal oil Into the closet, covering a space of about twenty feet long; with a match it was ignited and tho entire mass burned ilka bituminous coal. The mass continued to burn until all was consumed; and from tho deposits of the winter, after burning for bait an hour, not two (2) quirts of ashes remained The heating apparatus Is perfect. Eich room Is provided with a regulating damper with which cold or warm drafts of air aro admitted. This air being perfectly pure, thero is no necessity of raising and lower ing windows, and hence no danger of colds from sudden drafts of air. During tbo winter scston of tho public school not a single window was used for vcntllatnn. To Illustrate the perfect system of venti lation: tho air In each room may be chang ed in from seven to fifteen minutes. Tho directors aro well pleased with tho system. Tho cost of heating with this system is about one-third less than In heat ing with stoam, with their own apparatus. Mr. McCreery was ju?t making a tour of the school buildings in Scranton, Wilkes Uarre, Kingston, Berwick, Bloomsburg, Danvillo and Sunbury In which they hayo this system in successful operation. They give a positivo guarantee of the system and watch over It wherever placed. Ccnsns Enumerators. The following persons havo been ap pointed census enumerators for Columbia countyi Beaver J.

A litigation, begun tome years ago in Brooklyn, culminated yesterday In Now York In a decision by Judge Coxe, of tho United States Circuit Court. This prob ably Is tho end ot the famous fountain pen controversy. It was begun In 1880 before Judgo Benedict, in tho United States Court of the Brooklyn district. The suits were between Pml E. Wirt, tho inventor of the Wirt Fountain Pen, and several Brooklyn infringers, In which suits Mr. Wirt was successful. Tho title of tho case just decided by Judge Coxo was George II. Backett against Horace M. Smith. Mr, Bmttb was simply Mr. Wirt's salesman in New York and was sued theie because Mr. Wirt himself lived In Pennsylvania The complainant In his suit, Mr. Backett, is a Brooklyn man. The question at Issue was the right to use tbo capillary feed for the fountain pens. Beforo this discovery no one had been able to mako a satisfac tory fountain pen which would feed tho Ink 1 regularly, without skipping and without I blotting. With it tho ink Is fed so satis factorily that, as it apDearcd in evidence In the case, Mr. Wirt alono had at the time Ids testimony was given sold over 350,000 of these pens In the United States. He says that the number sold up to this dato is nearly, If not quite, bait a million; more than have ever been sold of all other foun tain pens since the world began. Tho pat ent tor this feed is estimated to bo worth anywhere from $500,000 to $1,500,000. Tho decision of Judgo Coxe sustains Mr, Wirt's right to the patent In every paitlcu lar, and gives him the control ot the foun talu pen business in tbo United Btatcs for the next twelye years or more, as long as bis patent lasts. Five years ago Mr. Wirt was a poor man to-day he is well on tho road to wealth. Various other suits involving the same patent, are pending, among others, ono against tho firm of Posmasthr General John Wanamakcr, but the decision just rendered in this suit will practically be de. cistvo.

In tho flirst place ho says, they are said to have tho blackest anti prohibitionist leader in tho county, and that all preachers were prospering but htm and they ought, becauso ho would not preach prohibition. Now is that a criterion for preaching the Gospel. The great teacher was poor, so poor that bo Bald ot himself tho foxes have holes and tho birds of tho air have nosts but the son of man hath not where to lay his head. His true followers and thoso that preach the truth will bo persecuted because tbo bulk ot humanity want something clso beside the word ot tho Lord. What did tho Lord say about prohibition? Nothing! Tbea as a true teacher the brother is right in not mixing politics with tho Gospel. "Observer" calls prohibition tho grandest Institution that ever blessed humanity. Shades ot the de parted martyrs, what next? Idont wonder now at your calling tho Brother bla ck when you placo the Institutions ot men abovo tbo Institution of high Ileavon, tor which God sent his brightest jewel from tho court ot Heaven to ordain, and for which tbo Jews put him to an Ignomlnous death. Dear Reader, the same spirit per vades tho human breast to day. What would tho lives of such men as tho brother and all others who are faithful and bold enough to dectaro tbo whole council ot God bo worth to day If civil law did not prevail?

The present senior class numbers seven ty-eight, being larger by fifteen, than any previous class In tho history of the school. The model-school has now reached ninety two and Its unusual size has necessitated a third teacher for this term. During the spring term tho organization of special classes for teachers, or thoso who enter here after the close of a winter's term, and the effort to adapt the work to their peculiar need, is a movement grow, ing each year into greater favor.
