A Word of Encouragement.
! It is indeed a pleasure to know that
| such a spirit of harmony and progress
! prevails regarding our town schools,
i Our excellent board, backed by a
j liberal, hearty, public sentiment, seem
J determined to keep our schools in the
| very front rank.
j The unanimous and hearty re election
j of Prof. Bastian as principal, at a quite
| substantial increase of salary, shows
the high appreciation in which he and
his laborious and efficient work are
held by both board and people.
We are sure there will be an earnest
effort to secure the most efficient force
of teachers possible for the places yet
to be filled.
It is very encouraging to all patrons
to know that "upward" is the watch
word in our schools—that "from good
to bettor" is the constant aim.
The last year's work with its excel
lent commencement program, our new
departures in the way of a summer
normal and free night schools all con
ducted by Prof. Bastian, are strongest
evidences of enthusiastic interest, ef
ficiency and progress, and reflect high
credit on all concerned. The cost of
our schools is comparatively small to
the community, but the gain is great
and will be still greater.

| McKinley Refuses to Serve a ! hircl Term. \
I \
\ I regret that a .suggestion oi ! a third term has been made. I doubt whether lam called upon to <
1 give it notice. But there are now suggestions of the gravest importance before the Administration and s
the country. and their just consideration should not be prejudiced in the public mind by even the sits- c
\ picion of the thought of a third term. In view therefore of the reiteration of the suggestion of it, I will
i say now, once for all. expressing a long settled conviction, that I not only am not and will not be a <
s candidate for a third term, but would not accept a nomination for it if it was tendered me. s
.My only ambition is to serve through my second term to the acceptance of my eounlrymen, whose s
r generous confidence I so deeply appreciate, and then with them to do my duty in the ranks of privates
s citizenship. t

Masonic Chapter Work and Banquet.
Last Monday afternoon and evening
Emporium Chapter, No. 227, H. R. A.
C., enjoyed a special session for the
purpose of confirming the Chapter de
grees upon a class of four. The session
convined at 3.30 p. m., .and continued
until evening. In addition to a large
number of members from this eounty
the occasion was made especially
pleasant by the attendance of many
Companions from neighboring Chap
ters, among the number we noted: G.
F. Rhode, Ridgway; C. W. Arnold, C.
A. Cole, N. R. Bard, L. J. llaznor, C.
W. Catlin, C. R. Bard, F. B. Todd, R.
J. Mott, J. V. Otto, W. J. McOranor,
C. S. King, J. H. Williams, C. O.
Layman, F. E. Rowley, of Arnold
Chapter, Port Allegany, and Rev. Geo.
H. Marsh, Kalamazoo, Mich. At six
o'clock the work was called off for an
hour and all were invited to enjoy a
Banquet, prepared for the occasion by
the ladies of Prebyterian church. It is
needless to add that the elegant repast
was hugely enjoyed and promptly de
spatched under the leadership of the
Chapter's smallest (?) eaters, Roy
Gleason, Walter Youthers, and E. C.
Counsil. Returning to the Chapter
rooms, greatly refreshed, the work was
resumed and completed at a late hour,
when the goat, that had been enter
taining the small boys on the streets
during the day and called into assist
upon this especial occasion, was pro
perly groomed and dismissed and
shipped to F. E. Rowley's lumber
camp.
For many years there has existed a
very fraternal feeling between Arnold
Chapter and Emporium Chapter and
upon this occasion the visiting Port
Allegany Companions took occasion to
express their appreciation of the close
relationship that exists. In a neat
speech, Companion C. W. Catlin, pre
snted Emporium Chapter, in behalf of
Arnold Chapter, a beautiful silver
water service, which was highly appre
ciated and accepted in the same spirit
in which it was presented.
The occasion was one long to bn re
membered by those in attendance and
was the largest assemblage of Masons
held here in many years.
In addition to the resident members
in attendance, the following out of
town members were here to enjoy the
pleasant treat: Ed. C. Counsil, Warren
Dent, Dents Run; Roy Gleason, John
Gleason, Walter Youthers, T. 8.
Patchell, S. P. Kinder, Driftwood; Geo.

Renovo's Fire Brick Plant.
The Lock Haven Express thus com
ments on a recent meeting of the fire
brick company: An important meet
ing of the officers and directors of the
West Branch fire brick company was
held this week. The erection of the
new plant on the site virtually selected
some time ago is now fully decided
upon and a charter will be applied for
within a few weeks. The site selected
for the new piant is about three-fourths
of a mile from the mouth of Drury's
run and not far from Renovo. The
location was formerly the site of a saw
mill. Manufacturers of fire brick ma
chinery were on the ground this week
and it is expected that the erection of
the works will be commenced soon, in
order that the works may be putin
operation at as early a date as possible.
The new company will have a great
advantage in the fact that the works
will be located such a short distance
from the Philadelphia & Erie railroad.
The plant the company proposes to
erect will be fully as large as any of
the fire brick works in Clinton county,
and the capacity will bo as great. The
company is capitalized at $>160,000. C.
F. Barclay, of Sinnamahoning, is the
president, B.F. Geary, of Lock Havan,
secretary and Josiah Howard, of Em
porium, treasurer.
The erection of this new fire brick
manufactory will give employment to
a large number of hands and is another
indication that Clinton county is be
coming what the Express years ago
predicted it would be, agreat fire brick
manufacturing centre. The West
Branch company has 50 acres of land
which is underlaid with as fine a quali
ty of clay as can be found in the state.
Other companies it is stated will soon
be erganized to erect fire brick plants
in this section.

The Gr.-.nd Bibica! Spectacle Solomon.
His Temple, and the Queen ofSheba.
The Enquirer, The Commercial Tri
bune ar.d other leading papers, both
German and English, of Cincinnati, are
prolific in their praises of this new and i
most impressive of all spectacles, j
which, at an expense that would seem j
fabulous, the enterprising manager ot '
John Robinson's 10bigshowscombined j
produce this year in collection with i
their myraid other attractions. There
is no sense BO vivid, so lasting and so
conclusive as the sense of seeing, and
however studiously we may search
the Scriptures or other sacred history,
the ideas that we may form and the im
pressions we may receive concerning
the patriarchs and sages, and the
scenes, incidents and events con
sequent to their time, can bo but frac
tionary and imperfect. To have repro
duced those personages and events
and have placed sceneogrophic effect
before you; to hear Solomon re-utter
his wise and prophetic words; to see in
person Sheba's illustrious Queen; and
the pomp and circumstance of her sur
roundings; to view the great Temple of
Solomon, not by description, but by
actual inspection; to witness personally
the sumptuous and resplendent festi
vals of the great Solomon's court—
these are the inestimable privileges
which the John Robinson 10 Big Com
bined Shows accords its patrons in con
nection with the great circus, the men
agerie, and the royal Roman hippo
drome. The spectacle of Solomon,
His Temple, and the Queen ofSheba,
will be exhibited at Emporium, Friday
