Senator Gorman may yet be
known as the Jim Crow candidate
for tlie presidency.
Many Southerners will not join
their state militia for fear that they
might some day be forced to serve
under a negro officer.
About 3,000 witnesses and 50
lawyers will take part in the coming
trial of those who participated in
the massacies of the Jews at Kich
ineff.
The President is much pleased
with the success of the recent army
maneuvers and will recommend to
Congress liberal appropriations for
their continuance.
Three New York papers, the
American, the Journal and Das
Morgan Journal are booming Ran
dolph Hearst for the presidency.
Hearst owns thein all.
If Delegate Prince Kalanianacle
visits Queen Liliuokalani, it is
hoped the person who makes the
introduction will have a successful
tacke with the names.
A New York paper safely de
clares that if the right candidate is
nominated on the right platformand
gets the right number of votes, the
democratic party may win next
year.
Several days ago the House of
Representatives held a five minutes
session. After prayer by the chap
lain and the reading of the journal
a motion to adjourn was carried.
W. J. Bryan has sailed for
Europe. His last words were a
parting shot at former President
Cleveland, who "made the White
House a rendezvous of syndicates
and exploiters.' 1
All the land held by the religious
orders in the Philippines will pro
bably be bought by our govern
ment for $0,000,000. This will
put an end to one of the most ag
gravating questions concerning the
islands.
Some of the leading agrarian
papers of Germany hava started an
agitation against that country tak
ing part in the St. Louis Exposi
tion. Their hositility to America
is due to the fact that we d* not
permit them to send their products
here free of duty.
According to the report of the
Adjutant General, the regular
army now consists of 55,500 men,
3,081 officers. The united strength
of the State militias amounts to
110,542 men. 14,007 regular troops
are now stationed in the Philip
pines.
A colored barber at the national
capital said business had been bad
ever since the Cleveland adminis
tration and that ho hoped for a
democratic administration next
year. When asked to explain, he
said, "The democrats don't shave
themselves."
Ernest Graigwell of Brooklyn,
the first negro immigrant inspector
to be sent to Ellis Island, arrived
at his new post carrying his own
lunch, in case his white compan
ions should object to his eating in
the restaurant. They said that
they had not the slightest object
ion, however, and now Graigwell
takes luncheon with the rest of the
inspectors.
President Marrovuin, of Columbia, j
»ays we shall have a Boer War on our I
hands. He has not yet threatened to
"stagger humanity."
Under women's suffrage Carrie Na
tion would be the logical candidate for
the presidential nomination of the
Prohibition isto.
Bryan says"The people do not know
Tom. Johnson." They know that he
is a Brvanite and that is sufficient for
them to decide which way to vote.
In granting reciprocity to Cuba and
in negotiating a canal treaty with the
new republic of Panama, the republi.
can policy met with such favor with
the public that the democrats do not
dare oppose it.
The bigotted attack on Senator Reed
Srnoot, by the W. C. T. U. and othor
feminine organizations, is an indica
tion of the kind of political questions
which would be forced upon the coun
try if women were allowed to vote.
The new Panama minister has re
ceived many applications for commis
sions in the Panamese army. These
soldiers of fortune seem to forget that
the days of fighting on the Isthmus are
over. They might have better luck if
they applied to Colombia, as that
country threatens to raise an army of
100,000 men to invade Panama.
John Sharp Williams, the democratic
leader of the House of Representatives,
says that tariff reform should be the
issue of the next campaign; Gorman
favors the race question; Hearst de
clares for "Democracy Labor's ally;
and Bryan insists on the Kansas City
platform and says that free silver is
not dead. The prospects of a united
Democracy are not bright.
OPIMR
BOLDLY ROBii AGAIN.
Williamsport, Pa., Nov. 24 The
whole country is aflame with excite
ment again to-nignt over a desperate
robbery and murderous assault made
on Miller Vincent Sharp, at Curtin, a
village on the Bald Eagle Valley Rail
road, twelve miles west of Brown's
tower, where operator William Clen
denen was murdered.
The robbery was committed by a
man answering the description of the
fellow who was seen in Brown's tower,
and a special train bearing a corps of
detectives has been sent to the scene.
WIELDED HEAVY IRON BAR.
This afternoon a stranger came into
Sharp's grist mill and engaged a sack
of cornmeal, saying he would call for
it this evening. At 7:30 o'clock to
night he returned and found Mr Sharp
in the mill office alone. He tendered
a §5 bill in payment of the meal, and
when Sharp turned to make the change
the stranger drew a heavy iron bar
from under his coat and knocked him
unconscious. He then obtained SIOO
out of the safe, got his own §5 and es
caped.
Sharp recovered in a few minutes
sufficiently to give the alarm. The
authorities are ronvinced that the rob
ber is the Clendenen murderer and the
Allen wood robber.
A WOMAN IN THE CASE.
The mother of Clendenen, the mur
dered operator, at her home at Youngs
dale to-day, said:
"I don't think my son was killed en
tirely for money, and I don't think it
was my son who sent that message out
of the tower."
"I guess he had an enemy that he
did not know of, for bachelors will do
things that they oughten't to."
The story that the detectives had
found a clew which pointed to the
murder having been committed by a
woman dressed in a'man's clothing
originated in the declaration that a
woman is now known to have figured
in the case. This woman, however
was not near the tower that night. It
is known that she was at home.
Day operator Gill, who was yesterday
reported had been arrested, to-day
strenuously denied the imputation.
He says that he and Clendenen were
the very closest of friends.
AOREE ON THE WOMAN THEORY.
Detectives who have investigated
the case agree with Mrs. Clendenen
that her son was the victim of a deadly
feud engendered in jealousy, and that
his murderer was a personal enemy
well known to him. It is believed,
moreover, and the belief is based on
strong evidence, that the man who
killed Clendenen was so well acquaint
ed with him that he was freely admit
ted to the office, from which strangers
were barred.
Evidence has been obtained which
tends to show that the man who killed
the operator was in the tower for some
time before the shooting, and two men
have been found who saw the murderer
just before and jnst after the shooting.
Neither recognized him but both give
the same description of the man.
The description tallies with that of
the man who was known to be a bitter
personal enemy of Clendenen.
For sick headache try Chamberlain's
j Stomach and Liver Tablets; they will
ward of the attack if taken in time. For
j rale by L. Taggart.

We are having a little colder weather
since the flood.
Warren J. Mead and wife left for
Renovo Monday, where they expect to
Lank Crutu and party captured two
fine deer last week. Boby Light i&
all right on a hunt.
One span of the R. S. & 8. bridge at
Driftwood, which was on trestling was
washed away in the late flood.
M. N. U. L. Brooks and party of this
place captured two fine bears one day
last week, an old one and cub.
The Citizens band was up to the Colo
nial supper at Driftwood last Friday
evening and report having a very nice
time.
Frank Burk and party, who are hunt
ing on Karthaus mountain report no deer
yet. They see lots of deer and get a
good many shots, but no meat,
make their future home, Mr. Mead be
ing a fireman on the middle division of
the P. &E. railroad. The best wishes
of their friends go with them.
Th<4 big derrick was up from Renovo
the first of the week to lift the wrecked
engine ou the B. S. & S. out of the creek
at Bailey Run.
Charles Clontz, the bee man of this
place, has found and cut fifteen bee trees
this season lie hived several of them
aud took them home in patent scapes.
The chicken and oyster supper held
Saturday evening by the Citizens Band
and the P.O. of A.was all right. It was
the best supper for the price that has
been given here for some time.
Well, the hoodo spell has not yet been
lifted from the hunters on Karthaus. A
party of them got a deer cornered and it
did not know where togo, but after their
ammunition was gone, they took to
starviug it. It would not stand this kind
of warfare and got away from them.
Another consignment of recruits went
out Sunday to reinforce them with a new
supply of ammunition and spirits and
they are in hopes to get at least one deer
before the season is over and they have
to return home.
Doesn't Respect Old Age.
It's shameful when youth fails to show
proper respect for old age but just the
contrary in the case of Dr. King's New
Life Pills. They cat off maladies no
matter how severe and irrespective of old
age. Dyspepsia, Jaundice, Fever, Con
tipation all yield to this perfect Pill

Sinnamahoning Liars Club.
The Liars Club has reorganized for the
winter. Pap Bertield hasn't been home
since the club divided the surplus and
disbanded last summer. There are but a
few of the old members allowed to be re
instated without the regular fee, as it is
the intention to run the club on scientific
principles this winter. Any member
telling a whopper without proof, will be
fined seven cents and stand suspended
until the fine is paid.
We have the best of material and the
club will be a graud success as there are
sixty applicants for admission. Pap
Blodget furnishes the room but refuses to
tell a lie until he makes another trip to
Emporium and takes a few points from
John Ilogan and Geo. Burkheart. One
man told one for the truth. He said he
saw a square stick of timber 48 inches
without any "wain" lG Ifeetlong. John
Logue took his hat and left. Hanscom
rapped for order and adjourned.

FROM BOUTH AFRICA.
New Way of Uilnß Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy.
Mr. Arthur Chapman writiig from
Durban, Natal, South Africa, says: As
a proof that Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy is a cure suitable for old and young,
I pen you the following: A neighbor of
mine had a child just orer two months
old. It had a very bad cough and the
parents did not know what to give it. I
suggested that if they would get a bottle
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and put
some upon the dummy teat the baby was
sucking it would no doubt cure the child.
This thoy did and brought about a
quick relief and cured the baby. This
remedy is for sale by L. Taggart.
Fashion writers declare that the porn
padore will remain in style the coming
season.
