Peoples Course, Court House Saturday
evening Jan. 31st.
Men have various ways of earring
money. Butchers, millers and bakers
carry it in a crumpled wad. Bankers
in nice clean bills laid full length in a
morrocco pocket book. Brokers always
fold there bills once, doubling the
monej as it where. The young busi
ness man carries it in his vest pocket
while the sporting man carries it in his
trouser's pocket. Farmers and drovers
carry theirs in their inside pockets,
whether it be fifteen dollars or fifteen
cents. Editors usually carry theirs in
other people's pockets.
Pat Huxley Once More in Trouble.
Pat Huxley broke loose again Thurs
day night. Pat has been keeping
pretty quiet lately but it seems that
periodically the police must look after
him.
Huxley has been annoying a woman
who resides on State street by atten
tions which were unwelcome to her.
On Thursday night she appealed to the
police and several of them went on his
trail. He saw them coming and made
himself scarce.
In the early morning hours Huxley
returned and again the police were
called. Officer Thompson, who re
sponded, found the woman in the
street and the doors locked. The offi
cer could hear Huxley on the inside
and forced a window to secure en
trance.
Taking a lamp he made a search of
the house but failed to find him. In
one spot he found an entrance to an
attic but it was closed. The house is
one of a row and all are connected in
this attic.
Thompson drew himself up through
the trap door taking the lamp with
him. He heard Huxley at the other end
of the long open space and started
after him. He found that the fugitive
had taken advantage of the hole open
ing down into the adjoining house, and
descending into a bedroom, where sev
eral persona were sleeping. Of course
he aroused the slumberers and their
fears were not allayed in the least
when they saw the long legs of the
stalwart officer come dangling through
the opening in the ceiling a few sec
onds afterward.
Huxley ran down stairs and effected
his escape through a front door. When
the officer reached the street, his man
had disappeared from sight. So far as
is known he mai be running yet.—

Advertising and Combination.
"The cessation of advertising killed
the bicycle business," says Colonel A.
A. Pope, "and the way to revive it is to
resume that same important matter.
You can see how I feel in the matter
when I tell you that I spent $500,000 in
one year in that sort of publicity, and
that it is my idea for the future to ad
vertise." The Bicycle Trust stopped
competition, and it s>ipi>osod it did not
need publicity. It saved a great deal
of money and went into the hands of
a receiver. Colonel Pope knows the
bicycle business better than any one
else does and h<< says there must be a
return to advertising. When the bicy
cle manufacturers ceased to advertise
the public abandoned cycling and turn
ed to other amusements.
CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, JANUARY 29, ioo>
ALL SORTS.
With Bometbihg over 7,200 pages
oftestimony transcribed, the anthracite
strike commission is fast nearing the
end of its labors, and it is thought that
all evidence will be in by the last of
this week.
A Canton giri is lucky enough to have
| become head nurse at SSO weekly in the
service of a New York multi millionaire,
who is a partial paralytic She is also,
to have a bonus of SI,OOO yearly as long
as she continues in her rich patient's
service.
The following from the German is
equally true in English: At 10, a boy
thinks he knows more than his father.
When he is 15 he thinks, "Well, I know
just about as much." At 20 he thinks
he knows again as much. When he
comes to be 30 years old he thinks that
he ought to ask his lather's advice some
times. At 40 he thinks that his father
does know a little more. At 50 he looks
for his father's advice. At 00, when his
father is dead, he comes to the conclu
sion that there was not a smarter man
on God's earth than his father was.
The Pennsylvania Railroad will pay
full wages, for the time lost, to all of its
employes wh», as members of the
National Guards, were called away from
work by the coal strike. These employ
ees of course were paid by the state al -
so for the time they were in active ser
vice, and so they will get double pay
for that period. This action by the ;
railroad company is a practical counter- j
move to the action of labor union in
declaring against membership in the
guard. The company's policy will do !
much to increase the attractiveness of
service in the National Guard.
A western editor writes as follows: '
The editor sat in his easy chair, light ]
ing his pipe on his anburn hair. A halo
shown over his face so fair, but his 1
knees were out and his feet were bare. (
And he sang a song both sad and sweet !
while the flies died all around his feet, 1
for he had no grub in his shop to eat, i
and the ground was covered with sleet. I
Now, what in the world was the cuss to j
do? He had eaten the paste and swal
lowed the glue; he hadn't a drink, he ]
hadn't a chew, and while he stared his j
wiskers grew.—And the band played .
on.
When the frost is on the window and '
the kitchen pail is froze, when the little '
icy needles come from every breath I
that blows, when chilblains make us
sick and faint, and cold feet give us
pain; it's safe to bet that we all wish for
summer days again. For while we sit
and fume around in gauzy summer
clothes, it's easy enough to get cooled
everybody knows; but it's different in
the winter when the world is full of ice;
and the weather is as hard as a pair o
loaded dice. We may talk about our I
climate, and about our spring and fall, j
but the balmy days of summer are the j
days that suit us all.-—Ex.
The happiest man in the world is the !
common every day chap who makes his
own living, pays his own bills and has I
the respect of his neighbors. He saves !
a little money as he goes along, but he ,
doesn't try to get a corner on the local
output, and he is a slave to neither am- j
bition or society. He never expects to !
wear out the seat of his pants in the ',
senate, and when he slides into bis
clothes in the morning he never wastes
anytime trying to pick out the right
tint of soaks, suspenders, and neckties
that will blend with the general effect.
He wears a "biled" shirt when he feels
like it, and when his pet corn begins to
jump he whips out his jack knife and
cute a four inch gash in the side of his
boot and nothing is said about it in the
papers. He has an appetite like a cy
clone and he never has to sit up nights
to poulticohia conscience. He believes
in the doctrine live and let live, and
when he encounters one of the needy
doesn't stutter with his pocket book.
The plain plug of a man is happy be
cause he is satisfied and doesn't Bpend
the best part of his life in yearning for
something about four sizes to large for
him. —Ex.
Tariff or no tariff, reciprocity or
no reciprocity, both countries seem
to be doing pretty well as things
are. Canada sells millions' worth
abroad, and with these millions
buys American goods, because they
are better and cheaper than she can
make or get elsewhere. We boy a
little of Canada, too, and the duty
paid thereon goes to support the
general government. Even should
Canada become twice as prosperous
she would still be our best custom
er.—Detroit Journal.

The Proposed Lee Statue.
I The Harrisburg Telegraph very pro
perly says: It is not likely that the
proposition to place a statue of General
Lee on the battlefield of Gettysburg
will be adopted. The chances are that
a storm of protest will sweep the pro
position into oblivion,
j In this matter it is neither necessary
nor advisable to resurrect sectional
differences nor even to mention, much
j lees wave, the bloody shirt. The
j scheme is distasteful to many Penn
| sylvanians. As a soldier General Lee
j had few peers. In the strict military
sense his career was a glorious one. As
1 a soldier his statue would be desirable
I anywhere.
But Lee the soldier can never be dis
sociated from Lee the traitor. It's a
pity but it's true. The animosity be
tween the two sections that were en
gaged in the great struggle forty years
: ago has died. The Blue and the Gray
! fraternize whenever they meet. The
J aspirations of the North and the South
j are now similar. Yet in the manifesta
tion of fraternal spirit there is a line
which cannot be passed in safety.
To honor Lee would be to glorify
treason. In sentiment this may not
be true; in the real and practical side of
human life it is nothing but truth.
There arc many Pennsylvanians who
to-day see a monument to Lee in every
shaft to soldiers slain at Gettysburg
and in every orphans' school that was j
erected as a consequence and effect of
that general's military genius. It is
not possible that any convincing reason
can be advanced for honoring the
memory of the dead rebel. It is advis
able that the proposition be dropped.
Wonderful Nerves.
Is displayed by many a man enduring 1
pains of accidental Cuts, Wounds, j
Bruises, Burns, Hcalds, Sore feet or stiff
joints. But there's no need for it. Buck
len's Arnica Salve will kill the pain and
cure the trouble. It's the best Salve on
earth for Piles, too. 25c. at L. Taggart's
