The political editor of the Inde pendent, that saintly and immacu late apostle of purity, had a severe j case of indigestion again, last week. | He attended church and listened i to, what everybody else except the j editor considered sound, logical and convincing truths, an able sermon by Rev. Mr. Rossiter. The scribe evidently must have been sick when he heard the rottenness of Tain many, as well as all other wrong doers, handled without gloves. Had the Rev. gentleman, who knew 1 of what be talked, only pounded the grand old party of Lincoln, progress and prosperity, his re marks would have been double leaded, with a display head-line. Isut, Oh! Lord, to abuse Boss Cro ker and Tammany was too much and straight way the dark lantern elan was called and a thorough search was made for Matt Quay, Joe Sibley and that petition that was to be circulated and catch (?) the Republicans. The search is still being made and the clan are looking for one of Joe Sibley's old letters, thereby hoping to revive their drooping enthusiasm. Rev. Rossiter still lives and the pulpit, the press and the progressive peo ple of this country are in the band wagon of expansion, prosperity and sound money. The old broken down bone wagon, conveying Billy Bryan, the Independent scribe with their idols—free trade, free silver, etc., will never catch up. They are traveling with the dead issues of the dark past. Fate to be Outwitted. •run MI'II <>K WOMAN'S DETERMINATION AMI INIJENUITV. OI.I) AOE TO ISE HOODWINKKI> liV THE SPINSTERS IN CONVENTION ASSEMBLED, IX CLARICE OPERA HOl'nE, TUESDAY EVENING, .JTN'E 12.— 8E SORE TO ATTEND. The Ladies of Emmanuel Church have tackled a Knotty Problem, but the spec tators who will be .so fortunate as to be present at the Spinsters' Convention on Tuesday evening, June 12th, will see these ladies win out handsomely in their startling project. What Hawthorne's somber fancy dreamed of will be. realized in merry earnest before the eyes of a sur prised and delighted audience. Or. Hei degger's experiment will pale before the unparalleled achievements of Professor Pinkcrson's Electric licraodclscope. The Doctor's Water of Youth possessed merely a virtue more transient than wine; but Professor Pinkcrson's apparatus is war ranted to transform the victims of age and wrinkles into maidens whose blooming 1 youth and beauty will be proof against all ordinary tests of time. Of course all this is a plan ot campaign against the uncaptured hosts of single men. As wise campaigners, these design ing spinsters have prepared complete and authoritative li.-ts of*all eligible single men, old and young. Wc understand that these lists will be submitted in Conven tion. There will be many other amusing features. Tickets 2."> and 35 cents. Proceeds for benefit ot Emmanuel Church. The ladies have decreed that there shall be a new church. Another Treat in Store. The appreciation shown for the two splendid flower pictures given free to readers of the great Philadelphia Sunday Press this year has led the publishers to provide a third great picture which will lie given free with every copy of next Sunday's Press (June !)). This picture, which is ijuite as attractive as the famous "Yard of lioses" and "Easter Lilies" pic tures, is called '"A Basket of Blossoms. It is by the famous Paul Do Longpre, and is one of his best works. It is 20 by 28 inches in size and is also noteworthy as being the first example of a new method of color printing, which is quite as won derful as the picture itself. The publish ers guarantee that every picture will be perfect. There is certain to be great de mand for next Sunday's Press, hence it will be well for all who want this picture to order their copy in advance. To Abolish a Division. Railroad men in this city arc at pres- j ent discussing a plan of the Northern Central officials to abolish one of the I divisions of that road. The scheme has been under consideration for some time, but whether it will be successful is not known. The idea is to get rid of the division between this city and Sun bury. At present there are three divisions on the road between Baltimore and Emporium. The first extends from Baltimore to this city, the second from this city toSunbury, and the third from Sunbury to Emporium. If the new plan is successful, this point will cease to be a freight division terminus. The | trains will be made up at Baltimore I and hauled direct to Sunbury. At Sun l bury a second crew will take charge ! and the train will be taken to Empor | ium without change of engines or men. This would save the salaries of a num j ber of officials and would result, in a j slight reduction in the amount of mo j tive power, but would not affect the | number of men employed. Needless to j say, there is no desire on the part of the employes for the change. It is not known whether this plan j had anything to do with the running of | the Eockville bridge straight across the i river so as to give the Central trains an i easy curve on both sides, but it is whis | pered that on account of increased traf fic at that point, this was done. The ; scheme at present is in its infancy, and 1 some of the men doubt very much if it | will ever amount to anything. —Harris- ' burg Patriot. Notes and News.

We acknowledge the receipt of au in vitation to attend the Dickinson College Law School Commencement, at Carlisle, Pa., June sth, sent us by our young friend Edward Taylor Daugherty, who is a member of the class. Mr. Daugherty •" the year of 1900 with great honors, bearing the titles of Ph. 8., A. M., and L. L. B. We congratulate our ener gy friend. That able Democratic paper, the Phil adelphia Record, truthfully says: -'The good men and women who are making a crusade again-t the army canteen do not stop to consider who are their allies and who would be the beneficiaries of what they are trying to accomplish. These are unscrupulous people who kept shops for the sale of bad liquors within convenient reach of the army posts and garrisons, and who are awaiting the opportunity to as sume their occupations. None know so well as the old soldiers the practical tem perance reform that has been effected by the army canteen.'' First Fork. CORA G. wife of Geo. B. Goss died at her home last Saturday afternoon. Mrs. Goss is survived by a husband and live small children, the youngest being but a few days old. The funeral services were held Monday afternoon, Itev. Mulliner officiating. Mr. and Mrs. Mark Goss and Mrs. Andrew Moore, of Emporium, attended the funeral—Mrs. (loss and Mrs. Moore being sisters of the deceased. While Mr. and Mrs. Mark (loss were driving over the mountain from Cameron to Bailey Hun, a wild animal let out some unearthly yells, Brightening the horse and occupants of the buggy very badly. The har.se made race-track time for about a mile. From the description given of the noise the animal made, it was evidently a panther or a lynx. This happened about mid-night on Saturday. We expect a mill and some dwelling houses to be built on Goss Bro's property, this fall, to saw out the timber on Mill run and to do custom sawing. N. N. Metcalf and Hon. J. C.
