No Surprise at All.
Bklitor Preta
In last week's issue of the Indepen
dent a number of our taxpayers were
surprised (?) that Mr. Ilacket should
publish the article under the caption
of "A Surprise," when our people well
know that this second defeat for the
East Ward boss within two years, was
no surprise at all and should result in
suppressing his aspirations in the
future. The people are tired of elect
ing to the Council men who have no
other motive save the advancement of
personal interests and in the future
the East Ward, as well as all other
wards, are determined, to elevate
to the responsible position of
councilman, men who will have no
axes to grind and shall work for the
whole people, and not ask to be "seen"
before their opposition to, or support
for any measure shall receive their ap
proval.

A Gassing Tale.
There was no dust to speak of on
Fourth street Friday evening, and the
lantern brigade was out in full force
looking for the electric lights.
"Where are they?" inquired a be-;
draggled individual, pausing in front
of one of the shop windows, which
were beautifully illuminated with left
over kerosene lamps and the odds and
ends of candles stuck in beer bottles.
"With the gas,—at the bottom of the
river," was the gloomy response.
"By the way, I have not seen you
on the street much this winter. Have
you been away ?" inquired the curious
man.
"Nope; it takes about all my time to
watch the gas, and keep it from either
going out, or licking the roof off."
"Me too," "Me too," "Me too,"
came in a chorus from a gathering
circle of the interested.
"Dang the gas ! It is no good except
to create obituary notices, said a man
kicking his mud spattered boot against
a pipe main bearing the legend "Gas."
"Dot's so,most ebery famibly haf lost
somepody, already, py dot gas."
"Ob, that's nothing, I lost my whole'
family in one night on account of it.'
was the rejoinder.
"Say, boys, I knew a little conun
drum," chipped in the cheerful man.
All strained their ears to listen, and
and after a barely perceptible pause,
filled in by the muttering of the tides
against a bridgeless shore,the owner of
the conundrum continued:—
"How many electric lights do you
think the Borough Council will sell
while the plant is run by gas?"
Again there was a pause, and people
strained their eyes through the great
black void of the unlighted street in
search of an answer.
At last a voice pleaded in tired tones:
"Ask us something easier."

Honor to a Deserving Young Man.
J. William Kaye, who has for ten
years past been in the employ of C. B.
Howard Company, the extensive lum
ber manufacturers, at this place, as
clerk, foreman and book-keeper having
resigned his position and accepted a
more responsible position with the same
company in Wisconsin, where they re
cently purchased a large lumber in
dustry, his close friend and Companion
Mr. Charles T. Logan, invited a few
friends to meet at his residence and ex
tend to the deserving young man their
well-wishes for a prosperous career in
his new home. An elegant repast was
prepared by Mr. Logan's good mother,
and those who have been fortunate
enough to enjoy the hospitably of Mr.
and Mrs. Logan know what that means.
Around the banquet table were as
■ sembled Mr. J. W. Kaye, Mr. Chas. T.
I Logan, Mr. John D. Logan, Mr. Josiah
I Howard, Mr. Joseph Kaye, Rev. J. M.
I Robertson, Rector of Emmanuel Epis
| copal Church, Mr. Joseph J. Lingle,
j Mr. W. H. Howard, Mr. C. Jay Good
uough, Mr. Thos. Gallagher, Dr. A. W
j Baker and H. H. Mullin. After doing
| full justice to the elaborate spread, so
I nicely served by Misses Mame Logan,
I Nina Bryan and Ada Garrity, three of
| Emporium's most estimable and popu
| lar young ladies, cigars were passed
| and brief toasts delivered by one and
j all of those surrounding the board, ex
! pressive of high eKCeetri in which the
guest oft ie evening was held by our
! people.
After drinking to the heallh ot the
( enterprising young (water of course)
gentleman all departed, wishing him
j God-speed.
The departure of J. William Kaye
i from Emporium is deeply regretted by
all classes of citizens, for he has allied
himself closely to all good work, in the
; church, Sunday school, and society
generally. Energetic in all work,
truthful, honest and fearhsi he has
formed friendships that shall last fox
all time. Tne PRESS especially extends
its best wi !u ; to Mr. Kaye hoping lie
may return to his foster-home a mill
ionaire in the years to come. Mr. Kaye
left on P. & E. Flyer Tuesday morning
for Westboro, Wisconsin, accompanied
j by Mr. B. W. Green and Joseph Kaye,
who will remain there some days.
! QUAY AGAINST ELKIN.
Belief in Pittsburg That the Senator
Has Directed His Friends to Oppose
the Attorney General.
PITTSBURG, March 3. —It is reported
to-night that Senator Quay has declared
against Elkin for Governor, and that
the fight will be between Watres and
Sibley.
Senator Quay, according to hie Pitts
burg agents, has sent word from Florida
that there is to be a contest over the re
maining delegates. Elkin will have the
backing of Governor Stone and I. W.
Durham, of Philadelphia. The other
Quay men in the State have, it is said,
been notified to turn in against Elkin,
and, although he has a start in securing
delegates, Quay has concluded that it
will not be safe to allow him to carry off
the nomination, the fear being that
while he might be able to get delegates
in June he could not get votes in Nov
ember.
Sibley, it is said, is to work against
Elkin in the western part of the State
sand Watres in the eastern end. It is
i said that Francis J. Torrance, owing to
his hostility to Stone and Elkin, has
agreed to give either Sibley or Watreß
I some or a large part of the Allegheny
| County delegates.
I It is said that Sibley will open liead
' quarters in Pittsburg in a few days and
j will carry on an open fight against El
lcin, and that the fight will have the
i personal supervision of Quay. Elkin is
1 said to have been notified that it is not
i a fight against him personally, but
; against his associate, Stone, whom the
i State Machine hds about decided to
i ' dump " The Pittsburg election is said
| to be responsible for Senator Quay's
I decision.
Friends of Sibley say that with Quay's
I help he will get the delegates from Erie,
| McKean, Venango, Armstrong, Beaver,
j Washington, Mercer, Clarion, Craw
! ford, Butler, Cameron, Elk, Forest,
j Green, Lawrence and Warren counties.
! General Charles Miller, of Franklin,
; is credited with putting Sibley forward.
Miller was opposed to Elkin and tried
to get Stone to have Elkin retire but
Elkin refused.
It is understood in local political
circles that the plan of Senator Quay
to retain his hold on the Western Penn
| sylvania delegates through Sibley and
j those in the East through Watres is for
1 the purpose largely of being able to
| control the State Republican Convcn
j tion on the Governorship. These on
, the inside intimate that neither Watres
! nor Sibley is likely to be the candidate
j whom Quay may select unless one of
I them shows preponderating strength
! and his candidacy does not arouse the
| antagonism that has resulted from that
of Elkin.
DEATH'S DOINGS.

St. Marys Greenhouse Co., will occupy
the F. M Overhiser store room, op
posite the opera house, during Easter
week. Those intending purchasing
flowers will do well to reserve their
orders.
Sneak Thief.
The meanest thief is a sneak and it
appears that Emporium has suffered
considerably of late from this class.
A few nights ago one of these despis
able creatures worked the lock on
C. G. Schmidt's back door of bakery
and after helping himself to all the
candy he wished departed. Mr.
Schmidt says he is onto the party and
hopes he may return again.
Tough Character.
Tuesday evening Policeman Frank
Mundy encountered one of Potter
county's toughest characters, one Eu
gene Strunk, full of East Ward's fire
wate.' and arrested the chap. While
plasing the "drunk" in the lock-up he
turned on him and fought to escape.
While the Policeman is not a large man
he is full of sand and after a rough
ami tumble succeeded in landing his
man, where he will live on bread and
water for some days.
Hid-Nighc flechanics.
Burglars again visited Emporium
Tuesday night and entered County
Commissioner A. F. Vogt's residence,
stealing several watches and a small
bank containing seven or eight dollars,
belonging to one of the children. Mrs.
Vogt heard the rascals in the house
and frightened them away, but not un
til after they had secured the plunder.
This makes the fifth time that Mr.
Vogt's store or house has been visited.
The residence of Elden Lewis, on same
street, was visited same night but
nothing taken, except some eatables.
An Unwilling Horse Thief.
Chauncy Thomas knows how to mix
fun and adventure in his stories of cow
boys and soldiers. His latest is "Kiowa's
Revival," in the March McClure's,
which tells how the hapless parson of
Kiowa was forced by a committee of
loading citizens— who were celebrating
an election—very much against his own
will, into embezzlement and horse
stealing. lie was caught and very badly
scared at the trial, but the committee
owned up at last, and led by its vindi
cated parson Kiowa had the greatest
revival in its history.

Tennessee practically prohibits the
sale of liquor in many parts of the
state by a law that provides that no
saloon can operate within four miles
of a school house in cities of less than
10,000 population. The educational and
prohibition people have seen to it that
school houses are constructed close
enough together to literally crowd out
tho saloon except in thej larger cities.
Tho law originally provided that no
saloon could operate in cities of least
than 2,000 population, but a few years
ago the limit was raised to 10,000.
