3 THE COLUMBIAN, PLOOMSRURH. r WASHINGTON. from our Heirular Conihiiondont. Washington, July 30, 1S97. It would be difficult to hud a more disappo.itcd and disgruntled gang than tlit'se republicans who hoped for some sort of appointment up to the hour of Mr. McKinley's departure on an extended vacation. They had ex pected that a large number of ap pointments would be made as soon as Congress was out of the way, but only a few were made and some of them were those whose nominations had failed to be acted upon by the Senate. He added to their disgruntlement by amending t'.ie civil service rules so that no office holder in the classified service can be removed except for cause and upon written charges, and then only after failure to make a satis factory defense. He pleased some of the republican Congressmen by ex cepting from the civil service rules some of the confidential employes in each of the internal revenue and cus toms districts, but offended others by extending those rules to the smaller Custom Houses that were left out by Mr. Cleveland. I5oss Hanna and Mr. McKinley are said to be "on the outs," and the big boss left Washington without say ing I'.oud bye to the man he made President and whom he has been bossing. There are different stories as to the cause of the strained rela tions, but it is safe to say that they will be patched up by 'he time Mr. McKmley gels to Ohio, where he ex pects to be during the latter part of August. As soon as he takes time to think, Boss Hanna will realize that he will need Mr. McKinley in his busi ness befoie that Ohio campaign is ended, and if necessary will pocket a Siiub or two to get his active assist ance. Mr. McKinley appointed F. V. Powderly to be Commissioner Gen eral of Immigration before he left on his vacation. This appointment was made necessary by the failure of the Senate to act upon Powderly's nomi nation for this position, and a bargain made before Mr. McKinley's election. It has been hinted by personal friends of Mr. McKinley that he will be rather glad than otherwise should the Senate reject Powderly's nomination next winter. In giving him the re cess appointment the bargain that put Powderly on the stump for McKinley has been lived up to. If the Senate declines to let him stay there, Mr. McKinley will have another good ap pointment at his disposal. Representative Prince, of 111., may find it difficult to square himself with the editor of the republican organ at Molinc. He had endorsed the editor for the postmastership ot the town, and, according to the rule in vogue at the Post Office department, that en dorsements should have been equiva lent to appointment. But this week Mr. Prince changed his endorsement from the republican editor to George H. McKinley, a nephew of Mr. Mc Kinley. He says he was virtually compelled to change his endorsement, and gives the following as the conver sation that took place at the White House between himself and Mr. Mc Kinley : Mr. McK. " I wish you would endorse my nephew for the place, Mr. Prince." Mr. P. "But, Mr. President, I have already endorsed Eastman (the editor), and if I go back on him now I will be held responsible politically." Mr. McK. "Well, say to them that you en dorsed him at my request." Mr. Prince says there was nothing else for him to do after that but to endorse Mr. McKinle)'s nephew, but he may find that the editor thinks differently, and if he cannot satisfy him in some way he may also find that he has to pay a big price for having obliged the , rresiuent. A study of Czar Reed's committees of the House, announced just before adjournment, shows that Pennsylvania and New York, with nine chairman ships each, got one-third of the fifty . four chairmen of House committees, while twenty-three states got no chair men at all. The Eastern States got twenty-eight chairmanships. When it is remembered that the legislation of the House is practically in the hands of the chairmen of committees this division is significant of the controlling power. If proof were needed that Mr. Mc Kinley was virtually compelled by Campaign promises to send that currency commission special message to Congress it is easily furnished by the positive statement ot prominent republican Senators that no attempt will be made to push the currency commission bill, which was jammed through the House, to a vote in the Senate. It has further become known that Speaker Reed would not have allowed the bill to get through the House had he not been certain that it was to be allowed to die in the Senate. When Mr. McKinley has paid all his campaign debts he may possibly do something because he be lie res in it, but it seems that there are still a lot of those debts unpaid. Carolina as the date of the first decl.i ration of independence, made in Mecklenbuitf County in 1775. The hardy frontiersmen of that region hud imbibed too fully of the spirit of liberty to submit to the degrading ex actions imposed on them by the English Government, which impelled them to meet in Charlotte, the county seat, where, in language of lofty pur pose and high resolve, they declared their connection with the mother country at an end. A year later the movement had so spread that it was taken up by the Philadelphia conven tion of representatives from all the colonies. The truth of history now does justice to the memory of the men who blazed the way for independ ence, and their descendants take just pride in its celebration. $100 Howard, $100. The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages and that i9 Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the on y positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Ca tarrh Cute is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby de stroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assist ing nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers, that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of testi monials. Address, F. J.

It is predicted that paper is the coining material for matches. The prospect of the wooden match industry being appreciably affected by a new ptoccss for manufacturing matches of paper is held to be extremely proba ble, particularly as the best wood for this purpose is constantly growing scarcer and more costly. The new matches are considerably cheaper than the wooden product and weigh much less, which counts for much in exportation. The sticks of the matches consist ot paper rolled together on the bias. The paper is rather strong and porous, and, when immersed in a solution of wax, stearine and similar substances, sticks well together and burns with a bright, smokeless and odorless flame. Strips one-half inch in width are first drawn through the combustible mass and then turned by machinery into long, thin tubes, pieces of the ordinary length of wood or wax matches being cut off auto matically by the maclvne. When the sticks aie cut to size they are dipped into phosphorus, also by machinery, and the dried head easily ignites by friction on any surface. There is some talk of utilizing the new invention in the manufacture of matches on an extensive scale for export in India. The invention in volves no waste whatever, and the paper is delivered in rolls like the telegraph tape, and converted at one operation into match-sticks, and by a second into matches that would dry without stoving for a large part of the year in India. One thing, however, must be made sure of that a wax is used which will harden at a shade temperature of 140 degrees Fahren heit at least.

A contributor to The American Agriculturist says that every bee keeper ought to have a swarming box. and etves these reasons why : It is not only convenient in hiving bees, but it saves cutting and mutilating fruit trees and other shrubbery upon which bees are liable to cluster. Make of some light material 10 or 12 inches square or longer one way than the other and close one end. Put a hole through the center and attach a handle some 10 feet long. With an inch bit fill with holes, so as to give the bees ventilation. This is important when swarming, for they cannot stand close confinement if filled with honey, as they are at that time. After the swarm settles push the box up into the cluster of bees, and they will go in readily and may be carried to the hive and treated in the usual way They may be left in the swarming box for a short time, but swarms should always be hived as soon as r6ssible after issuing. These boxes may be used for catching or arresting swarms by placing a cage containing a queen and some bees in them. This will attract the attention of the swarm, and oftentimes they will alight on it. Where large numbers of bees are kept these boxes are very handy, and a number of them may be on hand to accommodate swarms that come out at or near the same time, as in this case they are liable to cluster to gether, and with the use of such con veniences they may be kept separate. Many of Which are Still Standing In the Tight Little Island. A Leamington (Eng.) correspond ent writes : For physical, historic and social attractions there is no city in England, or elsewhere, for that matter, that can surpass Leamington. It is in the very midst of the "midlands," and the geographic centre of England is markeil by a mighty oak in one of the streets of the town. It is a "Gospel oak," such as you find all over England standing in the middle of the roads, usually with iron fences around them to assist in their preservation. An antiquarian was telling me the other day the origin of that term. It appears that it was customary in olden times, as a landmark for the people, and to prevent the tithe-gatherers from poaching upon each other's preserves, to mark the boundaries between parishes by planting such large trees n the middle of the principal high ways. Willie me dissenters were being persecuted and were forbidden to hold public worship, they used to assemble under these trees to read the ospel and hear it expounded by their preachers, because, if their exercises were interrupted by the authorities of one parish, all they had to do was to move around to the other side ot the tree and get out of their jurisdiction. Hence they became known as "tiospel oaks." DELAWARE.LACKAWANNA & WESTERN RAILROAD. Bt.OOMSBURO DIVISION. STATIONS. A. W. I 1.60 10 04 NORTHCKBRRLIND, Cameron Chulneky Danville ..... CatawlBsa ..

Killing the Canada Thistle The Canada thistle, although a rather pretty blue flower, is as great a pest as the white rudbeckia, mis named daisy. The thistle when cut off in fair weather will soon cap over and start at once from the stub, and some of the roots will start inde pendently for the surface. The sur est method of destroying the pest is to cut them near the surface while rainine. at any time from formation ol bloom to maturing ol plant. Ihe rain should be of some duration. The nlant will excrete the juice and absorb the water, wnicn is certain ucaiu. Showery weather is rather preferable, as all vegetation is more active dur ing the sudden changes ot tne ele ments smalt areas can De cut on the approach of a heavy shower, but 1 1 j- 1 : It must oe lmmuuiaiciy inccuwig, and you have the Canada thistle scientifically and almost automatically conquered at merely tne inning cost of cutting.

Throughout medi.xval times the wearing of a hat was regard ed as a mark of rank and distinction During the reign of Charles I the Puritans affected a steeple crown and lirnad brimmed hat. while the caval iers adopted a lower crown and broader brim, ornamented with feathers. In the early part of the reiun of Henrv V hats became popu lar, and in the time ot the wars ot tne Roses, all men of high and low degree (with the exception of 'prentices, who wore caps) wore hats. The cocked hat made its appearance in the reign of James II, and could be converted into a variety of shapes. It was known under several names, as the Brigadier, the Ramilies, the Regent and the Frederick. Even to the present day the naval full dress is incomplete without the cocked hat, and on the continent many functionaries, civil as well as military, continue to wear it. . Our old militia, line and field officers of 40 years ago used to wear them out of immense proportions. The round hat, such as Ben Franklin wore, was taken to Paris from this country by the young officers who fought for our independence under Rochambeau and Lafayette. It met with great fa vol there.
