The Trout Hog.
The trout hog—the man who destroys
trout with the aid of dynamite, or any
other device than that used by r the
honest angler— is in danger of being
made pay dearly for his violation of
the law. The woods in this part of
the state are full of detectives who are
paid to see that the private trout j
streams are protected from the trout ;
hog. These detectives are determined j
not to allow a guilty man to escape, !
and the prospects is that a number of j
men who have been illegally fishing
the trout streams will be hauled into
court. In former years it was hard to j
convict those who were guity of illegal
fishing because one neighbor did not
wish to testily against another neigh
bor, but now that the game associations
and sportsmen have taken a determin
ed stand in the matter and have em
ployed sworn officers to make the ar
rests and furnish the evidence against
violators of the law, the culprits will
find that their wisest course is to cease
operation at once. The fishing clubs
can take care of themselves, for they
have in their employ private watch
men whose duty it is to prevent those
not belonging to the clubs from fishing
on their streams. But the anglers who
must goto the public streams to catch
trout are not so fortunate. It is a dif
ficult matter to apprehend the wily
trout hog, and yet there is no doubt
but that with the assistance of the
honorable anglers these illegal fisher
men will eventually be brought to
book. —Williamsport Sun.

KEY WEST, May s.—The exodus of
naval men, after a brief return visit
here, has been the only incident of the
dullest day sinca the hostilities opened.
Where they have gone is officially un
announced, but surmise is plentiful
and varied.
The fact that the big battleships and
monitors couled to the fullest capac
ity before stearins away is taken to
indicate a plan occupying considerable
time.
The Cuban blockade is still rigidly I
kept up by the smaller cruisers, under I
the temporary command of Captain ]
Converse of the Mongomery.
The departing officers are still dis- |
cussing Commodore Dewey's brilliant I
Manila victory and hoping for an op- I
portunity for a like achievement.
The only arrivals here during the j
past 24 hours were the steamer Evelyn i
from Newport News with a cargo of |
coal for the fleet and the revenue cut- 1
ter Window from Hampton Roads.
In the harbor 6SO marines, with their ■
officers are still packed away on the ■
Panther, broiling in the tropical sun.
Only the officers have shore leave. The !
Panther is to be sent north to be made
into an auxiliary cruiser.
According to Captain Little of the j
fishing schooner Antonio Y. Paco, cap- [
tured by the gunboat Newport a few
days ago, Havana is on the verge of
famine. Food is brinein- fabulous
prices and the people are consequently
starving. The soldiers are seizing
whatever provisions are accessible and
citizens are burying their food in yards
and cellars. "If I could have slipped
past the blockade," says Captain Lit
tle, "my fish would have brought their
weight in gold."

WASHINGTON, May s.—No new offi

States for war uses. It is said that
if the incoming mail brought the prop
osition to San Francisco, it would
scarcely be 'rusted to telegraph there
on account of its importance, but
would be forwarded by the railway
mails which would bring it here in
about five days.

Funeral of Rev. F. W. Raikes.
The funeral of the late Rev. F. W.
Raikes, whose death we announced in
our last issue, took place from his resi
dence on West Avenue, Buffalo, on the
30th of April, and was largely attended.
' Friends attended from Sandusky,
I Dunkirk, Emporium and other places.
; The floral offerings of both wreaths
and flowers were beautiful. The cor
tege left the home at 2:30 for St. Marks
church, where the first portion of the
service was held. The honorary pall
bearers were Revs. Dr. Smith, Brogdon,
Richards, Barton, Kimball and North,
j all of whom were robed. The active
j pall bearers were Messrs. H. Coles, of
i Sandusky; H. Mullett, D. Cargrove, C.
| Richardson, J. 1). Clark, and G. Cobb.
The remains were met at the church by
i Bishop Walker, who read the opening
j services most impressively. He was
j assisted by the Rector, Rev. C. F. J.
! Wrigley. The Choir were in their
| places and some very sweet music waß
I rendered,
Rev. Raikes formerly resided in Em
porium aB Rector of Emmanuel church
and the present flourishing condition
of this Parish is mainly due to his
energetic work. Later he went to
North East, Pa., as Rector of Holy
Cross Church, but resigned, owing to
failing health, and located in Buffalo
with his estimable wife, where his two
sons reside. During his residence in
Buffalo he has been supplying churches
when required. Rev. Raikes, as« our
citizens well know, was a man of great
ability, very active and zealous in his
work, genial and beloved by all His
death was a sad blow to his Emporium
friends, who extend to the bereaved
family tlieir deepest sympathy. Many,
indeed, are the poor families in Empo
rium who have reason to remember the
kind-hearted and generous assistance
rendered them by our deceased friend
i and from many homes silent prayers
! were offered for the safe repose ot our
j late beloved Rector and friend.
Busy Austin.
Ye editor visited the hustling town of
' Austin last Monday, in company with
Hon. J. C. Johnson, and we %vere sur
prised to see how rapidly and substan
i tially the town was recovering from
i the late conflagration. Good brick
! business blocks have been erected in
all sections of the burg and from ap
j pearances Austin is good for many
I years to come. This place being the
I centre of the great F. H. and C. W.
Goodyear lumber enterprises, covering
almost the entire Southern portion of
Potter county, and a section of Clinton
and Cameron counties, the great bulk
of the trade centres at Austin. The
recent purchase by the lumber kings—
F. H. &C. W. Goodyear—of the Addi
son & Northern R. R., extends the
Buffalo & Susquehanna R. R. well into
! New York and since they have now
j branched out for additional business,
| no telling where they may go. The
| Goodyears are certainly hustlers and
j can smell a hemlock tree as far as sight
will carry.
We called at the Autograph office, to
pay our respects to friend Caskey, and
found him on crutches, the result of
running to a flre and coming into con
tact with an ash pit. Mr. Caskey, who
gets up one of the r.eatest papers com
ing to our desk, certainly conducts a
model printing establishment. His
office is clean, neat and orderly and
contains all the latest types, machinery
and conveniences necessary for the con
duction of a live paper. Austin cer
tainlv should, and we know they do,
feel a pride in their up-to-date editor,
postmaster and his pleasant surround- I
j ings-
I We had the pleasure of meeting Mr.
! F. H. Goodyear and his able Supt., Mr.
j Metcalf, to whom we certainly feel
j under lasting obligations for their very
! courteous treatment during our short
[ stay in the Hemlock City.
Walter B. Thompson is conducting a
barber shop on Main street, containing
i three chairs. It is an admirable loca-
J tion and his establishment is first-class.
| "Rory" McSwan came puffing in on
! one of the "stem-winders" and a wave
of his hand was all we had time for.
' j Dan'l McCormick, formerly a resident
j. j of this place, we met and he spun out a
- long list of inquiries about Emporium
friends. Limited time, and press of
I business engagement, prevented us
1 from calling on other Emporiumites
- i now located there.
l Our old friend Orrin Courtright, a
: candidate for Republican nomination
of County Treasurer, met us at Keating
1 Summit and conducted us through the
j town. We are glad to learn that Orri i's
t prospects for the nomination are flat
| tering. He served during the war : n
'• j Capt. Johnson's company.

Pure Politics.
From The Parish News.
We were pleased with the suggestion
recently made by the Cameron County
Press regarding the organization of a
I>aw and Order Society in this county
for the repression of political corrup
tion. No crime can be greater than to
use right to vote for purposes of
barter. The right to vote is a sacred
public trust. One's vote belongs not
to himself to do with as personol favor
or private interest may dictate, but it
belongs to the state and is sacred to
the interests of the larger life of hu
manity and righteousness.
To strike effectively at the root of
the more open and recognized forms
of political corruption, we must re
nounce the whole principle and sys
tem of the spoils idea. A public office
bestowed as a reward for political sup
port is quite as corrupt and immoral a
transaction as is the purchase of votes
at so much a head.
Politics must be established on the
basis of the public trust idea.
Public office is a public trust.
The right to vote is a public trust.
The true servant of the public has
no friends to reward and no enemies
to punish with the power of his office.
The true holder of the franchise has
no friends to reward nor enemies to
punish with his vote.
.-ase of Chas. Kresge.
Our attention has been called by Dr.
Heilman to the following letter from
Dr. T. S. G. Morton, Surgeon in Chief
to the Medico-Chirurgical Hospital, of
Philadelphia, Pa., to which our towns
man Chas. M. Kresge was sent a few
days ago, on account of an ununited
fracture of his leg. The letter speaks
for itself.
PHILADELPHIA, PA, April 27th, 1898.
My Dear Doctor Heilman:
I have carefully examined your patient Mr.
Kresge, and find, as you itifiormed me, that he
has a simple fracture of both bones of the
above the ankle. The position of the broken
bones seem to be perfect but no union has taken
place nor has any considerable or sufficient
amount of callus been thrown out. Hence lam
prepared to say that lie has had perfect treat
ment so far and the fault is entirely with his
healing powers. * * * * ♦ «
With regards, I am, very truly yours,
THOMAS S. K. NORTON.
Dr. Heilman has been especially
fortunate with respect to the patients
whom lie has thought best to send
away for more advanced treatment or
for whom he has sought counsel from
abroad. In every case his diagnosis
has been confirmed, and his treatment
has been commended as right and of
the best known to the profession

Close of the Rafting Season,
The Lock Haven Express says:"The
rafting season has about closed for
this year and the lumber inspectors
after comparing notes say that 147
rafts including square and round tim
ber have been inspected and measured
at the Lock Haven market up to the
present time There are only about
half a dozen rafts back yet, and the
total number this spring will be about
154. The lumber brought good prices
j and the indications are that the num
| ber next season will be' larger than
j this season."
