To Punish Fishermen-
All sorts of dire trouble is to await
fishermen in this state if they go on for
bidden lands hereafter, if William
Wayne of Taoli, has his way. He in
troduced a bill into the House fixing
the fine of $50 fur every offence. Be
sides this, the sportsmen will have to
pay the costs and may be sued tor
damages as well. The fisherman may
be arrested only when the land cover-
ed by the stream has been posted
with at least 10 handbills, forbidding
trespassing. The warrant must be
issued within six months of the
offence. If the offender refuses to pay
the fine, he shall be imprisoned one
day for each dollar of fine imposed.
The Coining of Easter.
Easter is late this year. Ash Wed
nesday came on February 5 and
Easter will occur on April la, almost
as late as it can possibly come
Easter may come as early as March
ai and as late as April 21. It de-
Den ds. as every one knows, on the
phase of the moon. Easter Sunday
is always the Sunday that follows full
moon immediately following the
Sprinz equinox (March in 1894 it
again fell on so early a date, 21). If
the moon falls on Sunday Easter is
the Sunday next following. In 1883
the day fell on March 25, and in this
and the two following centuries it
will occur only seven times on the
same date, 1951, 2035, 2124, 2125
and 2198.
Old Spelling Bees-
Old time spelling matches should
be restored to public favor. We look
upon this spelling business as some
other old-fashioned things in the pub
lie schools as of primary importance,
and we are glad to find some, at least,
are placing emphasis upon a subject
which has fallen somewhat into disre
pute in late years, or since the inau
guration of the sugar-coated educa
tion. Training pupils to see words as
wholes never make good spellers. It
can be demonstrated that those of us
who learned spelling under the bid
legime can, taking an equal number
ct intelligent people, show a much
greater proportion of good spellers
than can be shown among those who
have learned or pretended to learn
spelling by later methods.
Will Last But Siity Years-
In a lecture betore the National
Geographical Society, Professor
Charles D. Walcott, director of the
United States Geological Survey,
stated that at the present rate of con
sumption the anthracite coal fields in
the United States will be exhausted
in sixty years. The bituminous supply
he stated will last until the year 2203.
New Wireless System.
Rev. Joseph Murgas, pastor of the
Hungarian Catholic church of Wilkes-
barre, has completed a new wireless
telegraphy system, which he claims is
in some resr,ects superior to that of
either Marconi or Tesla. He claims
that with his present equipment he
can send messages seventy miles in
tend by the earthen circuit, and seven
hundred miles through the sea.
' Avoid all drying inhalants and use that
which cleanses and heals the membrane.
Ely's Cream Ealm is such a remedy and
cures Catarrh easily and pleasantly. Cold in
the head vanishes quickly. Price 5 cents
at druggists or by mail.
Catarrh caused difficulty in speaking and
to great extent loss ol heaiing. liy the
use of Ely's Cream Balm dropping of mucus
has ceased, voice and hearing have greatly
improved. J. V. Davidson, Atl'y at Law,
Monmouth, 111.
Some people would rather be popular
than truthful.
Dr. Aonew's Catarrhal Powder
Rev. V. II. Main, pastor of the Baptist
Emamiel Church, Buffalo, gives strong testi
monv for and is a firm believer in Dr. Ag
ew's Catarrhal Powder. He has tried
many kinds of remedies without avail,
"After using Dr. Agnew'g Catarrhal Pow
der I was benefited at once, are his word
It is a wonderful remedy. 50 cents. 33

Have you Eczema? Have you any skin
disease or eruptions ? Are you subject to
chafing or scalding? Dr. Agnew's Oint

them to be correct, as above stated.
There having been several bills in the

were taken, that in our judgment re
quired legal advice, we, therefore, em
ployed counsel, and disposed of them
upon his advice.
The following tun we surcharge against
