Legislative Committee Appointments.
Hon. A. L. 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.

According to a statement given out
from the Commissioners' office on Sat
urday, the county expenditures last
year were very heavy. 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.
The story comes f:on. Port Trever-
ton that Congressmen elect Kulp and

Montehus. were hunting in that
vicnity. They espied a little inno

afterward caught by the dogs, it was
found that but a single shot had en

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
