CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, M AY 31, 1900.
Another Case of Rickets.
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.

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.

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.''

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.
