OPERATION PERFORM
ON JUDGE C. A. MAYER
While Visiting Relatives in Ger
manlown is Stricken With
Serious Illness.
Judge C. A. Mayer was operated on
Thursday afternoon at 5 o'clock at the
Germantown hospital. About three
weeks ago Judge Mayer went to Ger
mantown to visit his son-in-law, Col.
J. B. Coryell, and family and while
Courtesy Clinton Republican.
JUDGE CHAS A.MAYER,
there took a violent cold. luflamation
of the bladder ensued, causing him in
tense suffering. He was reported im
proved a few days ago. but a turn for
the worse set in later and after a con
sulfation of his physicians, an opera
tion was decided upon to save his life.
Reports from German town, after the
operation, say that the judge could not
have lived had the operation not
been performed. His host of friends
in Lock Haven hops for his speedy re
covery to health again, and will rejoice
at any favorable news as to his condi
tion.
Judge Mayer held an argument court
in the courthouse just a mouth ago
Friday and although he had rot been
well previous to this, he was enjoying
fair health when he left for German
town to visit relatives.
The 15th of last December he cele
brated his 75th birthday quietly among
relatives at his home in this city. He
is serving his fourth term as president
judge of the Clinton, Cameron and Elk
district, a continuous service of 37
year-, having first been electfcd judge
in 186 S. Few common pleas judges in
the state are better known than Judge
Mayer and there is a widespread inter
est in this county and judicial district
in his recovery to. health.
A letter written at 7 o'clock Sunday
night to Moore Fredericks, cashier of
the First National Bank of this city,
says:"News from hospital says they
are all pleased at Judge Hayer's condi
tion. No fever, pul&e regular and
general condition good and is doing
well. Nurse in charge says he has not
told any storks since operation, but did
before operation."
A telephone message on Monday
from Miss Helen Mayer stated that they
were all encouraged at the progress
her father was making, that he was
gaining a little every day and that the
prospects were good for his recovery.
The family are now permitted to visit
the judge at the Germantown hospital.
—Wednesday's Lock Haven Republi
can. Mr. B. W. Green, of this place,
received a letter from Col. Coryell on
Tuesday, in which the writer sasy:
"He went through the operation
splendidly and the doctors inform us
that if no complications arise he is cer
tain of recovery and will be stronger
physical ly than he has been for some
time. His splendid physical condition
was greatly in his favor."

Fortune Telling a Great Sin.
Last week I was examining timber
lands in West Virginia and our party
made their headquarters at a farm
house back 11 miles front the railroad.
I wore a cap in the woods and when
I came away I forgot to exchange it
and left niy derby hat at the farm
house and when I went back after it
the farmer's wife exclaimed, "Oh I
hope nothing dreadful will happen to
you but it is bad luck to come back
after you start on a journey." Noth
ing dreadful did happen, all the trains
wei l'imeand I arrived safely at
home \ 'iere all the family and friends
were well.
God in good and just, and all these
signs and omens are foolish and
cowardly, so are all kinds of fortune
telling and gambling. A great many
people have their fortunes toid thought
lessly and for fun, and perhaps it
would not make much difference if the
fortune tellers confined their idle tales
to pleasant flatteries, and promises of
large fortunes and early marriages,
but when they tell of ugly accidents
and much sufferings to kind friends
and parents and children, then it is
nothing but wicked cruelty and heart
less quackery to obtain a few pieces of
silver. People fhonld notcountenance !
it, even in fun,and we should not for a
minute forget that the church is con :
tinually saying to us that, "Almighty
God the Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ desires not the hurt ofany saint
or sinner."
While a thoughtless and cruel boy
may pull a cat's tail or scare and stone
a stray dog, God is neither a cruel
king nor a thoughtless kid and we
should make it unprofitable for all
grafters after loose money who try to
flatter or scare us with idle and silly
prophesies of ghosts, goblins and gold
bricks.
Respectfully,
JOSIAH HOWARD.

The Two-Cent Railway Fare.
At a time when the railways opera
ting in Ohio are fighting a newly pass
ed law making two cents a mile the
maximum passenger rate on all lines
iu the state, New England roads are
accommodating themselves to what
seems the inevitable. Experience has
shown that it is now the proper maxi
mum, and there is no doubt that in a
shorttimeit will be established all over
the country east of the Mississippi and
Missouri rivers.
The railway managers do not like
the idea, says the Philadelphia In
quirer, but it is not certain it will be a
disadvantage. The principle of least
resistence works very strongly in al
traffic matters. The man who can 1
travel for two cents a mile takes more
rides than the one who has to pay
three. Probably it would be impos
sible to show that any railway charg
ing the two cent rate is not making
money out of its passenger business.
In this state we have all sorts of rates
from less than a cent for commuters to
three cents or more for the ordinary
rider. We doubt if there would be .any
loss of revenue from the adoption of a
maximum two cent rate and it would
remove many causes of agitation.
One would suppose that the experi
ment would be worth trying rather
than spending immense sums in litiga
tion which can oniy result in arousing
public resentment. Public opinion is
worth a great deal and public trafic
follows opinion.
