Fritz was not only the choice for Speaker of the House among the Democrats in legislative assembly, but (this being an empty honor) he was also assigned to duty on three of the most important com mittees, namely, Committee on Ways and Means, Committee on Appropria tions, and the Committee on Judiciaiy General. While these are the most important conitniitees in the legisla tive make up, he is also assigned to duty on the Committee on Pensions and Gratuities and on the Legislative Apportiontment Committee. Hon. W. T. Creasy, of Cataissa, was also favorably assigned to duty 011 the Committee of accounts, the Com mittee on Library, and the Commit tee on Manufactures, and on Public Buildings. Hon. II. H. Rutternow of Hughes ville, but a native and former resident of Bloomsburg, and now in the Legis lature, was assigned to committee work as follows: Committee to Com pare Bills, Committee on Fish and Game, and on Judicial Apportionment Committee. These gentlemen we be. lieve will prove themselves to be fair representatives of their constituents, ! and therefore entitled to the prefix of " Hon." now properly attached to j meir names. For his fourth annual tour Mr. Wil fred Clarke, the distinguished Ameri can comedian, has surrounded himself with a comedy of the highest order of excellence and is presenting refined standard comedy in its most approved form. Mr. Clarke's season began at Camden, N. J., Monday, December 10th. Id his company are the follow ing players Whose abilities are well known : Miss Helen Guest, the bril liant and talented commedienne, late of Charles Frohman's company ; H. Willard fctorm, of the Booth-Barrett company ; Christine Ellsworth, the great society card at the Girard Ave nue Theatre, Philadelphia, and the charming comedienne Angela Segalini, of Manager Holland's Philadelphia Stock Company, Mr. Clarke carries special scenery for the plays he is pre senting this year, and every perfor mance is characterized by an attention to artistic detail usually only found in the few large cities of the country. He will be seen in this city on the evening of Wednesday, January 23, giving his great performance of "Tit lor Tat," a side splitting farcical com edy of his acting 111 which the Wash ington J'ost said : "Wilfred Clarke, the bright young comedian, played at the Academy of Music last night before a delighted audience in his side splitting comedy " 1 it for Tat." Mr. Clarke came fully up to the high standard which was predicted in advance. In this produc tion Clarke is supported by a most excellent company, Dut he is, of course, the central figure of the play. The audience is made to witness some of the most excruciatingly ludric.rous sit uations and complications, all depend ing upon the manner of acting of the chief player, who is intensely funny. His facial expressions are something extraordinary. It can be safely said that as an interpreter of refined com edy, his equal has not been seen in Washington this season. The pertor mance was a complete success. China's Utter Prostration and Humilia tion. Japan may not want the e?nh, but then she wants about as much of it as the Chinese Empire covers. She wants it as the sum total of her condi- tions of peace and to pay her to quit shooting, now that she has the upper hand of her great big enemy. Among Japan s latest requirements to estab lish peace we find the following : A war indemnity equivalent to the ex pense of the war: a provision that Corea be forever hereafter indepen dent of China and under Japanese suezrainty ; that China also give up certain important and valuable islands : that she tear down such cer tain forts as might prove a hindrance or menace to Japan's domination in case of future trouble : demolish all fortifications on the route from Corea into China; and agree that Japan shall in all fftture time fix the number and style of Chinese warships. Are these terms acceded to, the surrender will be unparalleled in the world's history, for it will be the virtual ab- sjrpuor, o: t,nina dv japan, and we rather apprehend it will be the biting f ff rf mnro thin sYami in U j face of the jealousy already quite ap j parent eisewnere. r- rr- 1 1 - W?ELLUL0It1 Waterproof 'collars nnd cufTs that you can clean yourself by simply wiping off with a wet sponge.

The count shows that there were appropriate! $122,125.84 for the Almshouse last year, and all but a few thousand dol lars of this amount have been expend ed. Last year's expenses are $35,-2&9-43 greater than in 1893, but this increase includes some big outstand ing orders for 1893. The valuation of the county in 1894 was $48,963171, and the tax, assessed at the rate of 6 mills, amounted to $293i779-03- The taxes for 1893 amounted to $269,297.44 on the same valuation, the rate being 5$ mills. Last year's receipts from license amounted to $24,922, as compared with $18,845.05 for the previous year. The total expenditures were $682, 687.19, as against $561,317.76 for the year 1893. Advocate. It begins to look as though Gov ernor Pattison was born under the influence of some lucky star. From the governorship of a Stale largely republican in national contests he is now likely to become the accepted reform Mayor of a strongly republican city that needs to be reformed and Lexowed the worst kind of way. Suc cess to the Democratic reformer. There is on the calendar in Con gress what is known as the Grout butter bill, which makes oleomargarine, butterine, and all other imitations of butter subject to the laws of the States into which they may be transported. A State law prohibiting its manufact ure and sale is the only thing that will head off spurious butter. And if pro hibition don't prohibit its a little doubt ful whether spurious butter made else where can be thus entirely excluded. It may be read between the lines in Governor Hasting's inaugural ad dress that he discovers after election, that our protective tariff rates can be modified without great national or state injury. There will be some in dividual injury, of course, if the schedules of protective rates are modified; but as for the masses these individuals are now too powerful. Just One Little Shot.

Whats in a name? Blood will tell. Paulson's Staff Organizes.

However, they managed to pull through.

The j'overnor elect has just 22 places on his staff at his disposal. And having 300 heroic applicants to choose from up to date, it is possible that Governor Hastings will have a picked staff. As to other offices at his disposal he has received over 8,000 applica tions for them, and to give respectful answer to each applicant he has found steady employment for a stenographer who writes like lightning, besides a clerk who does his sleeping outside of office hours.
