The popular younger set held a very enjoyable masquerade party at Em manuol Parish House last Monday evening. Some very fine and unique costumes appeared at this time and the happy assemblage tripped the light fantastic until the "wee small' hours'' on Tuesday morning. This is the bunch that have a good timoand when they start out for a pleasant evening none are dissapointed. * * • SMOKER AND LUNCH. The members of Washington Camp, P. O. S. of A., No. 382, held a very en joyable smoker and luncheon at tho Camp Hooros last Monday evening. A goodly number of the Camp mem bers were present and had a very pleasant time. MIS* I.KAIIHKITKH KNTKRTAI.NM JT.On Monday evening, the home ot Miss Francis ("Ductile'') Lead better was the scene of much m« rr> making, at which time Miss Lcadoetter enter tained several of her Emporium friends. This home is an ide opened to the public, alVr which date alt through trains, will stait from and arrive at the Pennsyl vania station—one block from liroad way. We have before us a beautiful I. ink let, descriptive of the world's | rtattsit undertaking, exclunlve of the Panama canal. What a greet pity it Is that the late A. J. ('aiwett, the origin ator of the huge undertaking, could not live to see its com) let ion Same Old Story; Tariff For Revenue. Democratic Leaders Line up on That Program. The revision of the tariff, upon the plan of a tariff for revenue only, is to be the aim of the democrats. This announcement was made to-day by several democratic leaders of in fluence in the party's affairs, and fol lowing the receipt of the following tel egam from Representative Underwood of Alabama, one of the prominent democratic leaders: "I favor a tariff for revenue only. I believe the difference in labor and cost of production of manufactured articles at home and abroad would be covered by a tariff that raised a sufficient reve nue to support the government eco nomically administered. "I am opposed to protecting profits and because I believe protecting profits means protecting a monoply." Faithful Employee. The PRESS sanctum was on Saturday last, honored by a social visK. from our old and esteemed friend the venerable James O'Day, of East Emporium. Al though well advanced in years, now being almost 68 years old, he has for 37 years been a faithful member of the repair crew of the Pennsy R R., at the Junction, in the department managed by Mr. Elmer Klock, than whom there is no more competent employee of the Pennsy, kind and popular with his men, yet firm in the direction of his department. Mr. O'Day is profuse in his praise and admiration of his fore man. Long may they both live, for they are an honor to our town. "Human Hearts." "Human Hearts" the melodramatic success announced at the Emporium Opera House appeals to every class of playgoers. It deals with a story that teems the heart from beginning to end. 'Tom Logan" an honest young blacksmith in the Arkansas Hills, falls in love with and marries a re formed confidence woman. The dull country life soon palls on her. She ac cidentally meets her former lover and pal. Without cause they conspire to gether to ruin Tom and kill him if ne cessay The woman calls him while her accomplice conceals himself. The father of Tom responds and is mistak en for the "Young Blacksmith." He is fatally stabbed by the ambushed man. Tom, coming out to see where his father is, is accused by < lie adven turess and her "pal" of the murder. He is finally sentenced on tiiat charge. But his friends ultimately establish his innocence and he is released. Retribu tion overtakes his villainous and mur derous accusers. No play of its kind possesses a stronger plot or more sen sational incidents. The serious ele ment is mingled with comedv, forming a combination that never fails to touch a responsive chord in the hearts of playgoers Chinese and Coolie Competition. Chiua is sending pig iron to the Uni ted States and is getting ready to pro duce many other thint;» with the star ! vation wages paid in that country. A beet sugar manufacturing company is completing a factory at Harbin to pro duce 28,900 pounds of sugar each day. Other factories already in operation. Can American farmers raise beets and can Americans produce sugar in com petition with the Chinese and Japanese I without protection. An official report from Trinidad says that coolies are employed on the es tates on that island, and that the high est pay for laborers Is 30 cents per day for men and 21 cents for women. The ■ United States imports nearly J5.000,* 000 annually from Trinidad of articles produced by labor paid at the rates mentioned. An official report from tho United State* commercial agent In Harbadoes j »u)s that "1 tborers earn 30 to 40 ceuts ■ a day at larni work, the women getting . half as much." They go litrefooteU and wear cotton cloths the year round. Free-Traders want American Istioier* put ou a I • vel with such foreign work ers. American Economist Superintendent N. C. Schaeifer, of the State School Department, iu an address to the teacher* of Franklin county on Tuesday, referred to the great number of foreigners coming luto the State and said that tile large | majority were studious and iudustri ' ous and that unlet** the American boys ■ looks to his laurels the foreign-born boy will take his place in the voca tions of life. In many case*, he said, education to the American boy means llotkttg else but baseball, football, evening balls and highball*. Property for Sale. A property on Went Fourth street for nule.

BESSIE MILLER, daughter ot Mrs. Justin Miller, died at the family residence on Huston Hill, Thursday, November 3rd, 1910, aged about twenty-six years. Miss Bessie was left an invalid at the age of eight, from the affects of scarlet fever, but was a very patient sufferer; was only bed fast four days. The family have the sympathy of all, for it is only a littlo over a year since the youngest daugh ter of the family, Miss Lois, died. The funeral was held at the family resi dence, Saturday, Nov. sth, at 3 p. m.. Rev. Ebersole, officiating, after wbich the remains were conveyed to Hicks Run and laid to rest in Hicks Run cemetery. She is survived by the fol lowing brothers and sister 3: O D Miller, of Olean, Mrs. O. E. Barr, of Huston Hill; Mrs. W. E. Barr, Hicks Run, and Benj. H., at home. Mrs. Miller and family desire to thank all for their kindness and sym pathy. LEVERING. Grant Levering, aged 40, died at El mira, N Y., on Saturday last after a short illness. Deceased was well and favorably known in both Emporium and Coudersport, having visited here repeatedly. His wife, formerly Maud Pearsoll, survives him. Frank H. Peareoll and Josiah A. Fisher left Em porium on Sunday for Elmira, to at tend the funeral, which was held on Monday. The PRESS and many Em porium citizens deeply sympathize with the bereaved wife. Educational Train. Continuing its efforts to create ad ded interest in scientific farming in the agricultural districts through which it operates, the Pennsylvania Railroad is carryingon anactivecarnpaignthis win ter with its special educational trains, the first of which will be operated on Saturday, November 2flth, on what is known as the Bedford Division of the Pennsylvania Railroad. The Pennsylvania was the first rail road in the East to operate farmers educational trains. In the past three years almost every division of the rail road has been visited, and its boat liues on the Cliesapeahe Bay have had special educational steamboats on which lectures were delivered. Food For Digestion. Democratic Tariff laws have been tried twice Both times everything was cheap! Neither time did labor have the price to buy.—Eaton (O.) Register. A Kansas farmer bought a lumber wagon for S6O, in 1894, paying for it with 000 bushels of corn. He went to the same dealer for another wagon the other day, and objected to the price, S7O. The dealer said: "Bring in 600 bushels of corn, as you did in 1894, and I'll give you the wagon and a surrey, a twine-binder, a kitchen range and an outfit of kitchen furniture.—Baraboo (Wis.) Republican. The most nonsensical claptrap yet put forth is the pretense that high Tariff is responsible for the high cost of what goes into the workiugman's dinner bucket. The Tariff has no more to do with the price of bread, butter. meat, fruits,etc., than it has with the altitudinous location of the moon. If it were not for a protective Tariff half of the dinner buckets would b«i rusty from dis'tsp.-.Kansas Olty J>»»:r nal. Look Who's Coming.

Cameron County Should be Well Represented. There is an institution of the State that has been established exclusively for the public, and for the benefit of citizen in the Commonwealth. It is the State Museum at Harrisburg, where a collection is being made of every kind of mineral, animal, bird, insect flower, specimen of tree, and historical relic from each county of the State. Cameron County should be well re presented in this institution, which is laying a foundation invaluable for fu ture years. The purpose of the var ious divisions of the museum is as fol lows: DIVISION OF ZOOLOGY. Where can be seen the animals in their respective haunts and natural surroundings; many valuable features for the agriculturist, where informa tion may be obtained in reference to the birds, insects and animals of the locality that are helpful or destructive to the crops. DIVISION OF GEOLOGY. Since Pennsylvania is rich in miner als, there should be placed before the people of the Commonwealth one of the best State mineral exhibits found in the L'nion. This should include mineralogy, paleontology and indus trial geology. Each county in the State should be well represented by its respective minerals, the coals, irons, oils, clays, glass sacds, building stones, etc., with maps and charts showing where located. The educational and industrial should be closely allied to be of use to the Commonwealth There should be maps, charts and fos sils of the geological era, portraying the earliest formations known, includ ing the glacial period, upheavals, mountain and valley making, rivers and lakes of the State, with relief maps and models showing strata formations, etc. . A DIVISION OF BOTANY, with specimens helpful in learning the different species of trees, their uses and their woods; the care of forest pre serves, as well as the flowers and plants used for beautifying or for their chemical and medical qualities. Many fossil plants of the coal fields of Penn sylvania are on exhibition at the Mu seum. With the realization of the Capital Park extension, it would be pleasing to see every tree, shrub and flower native in the State planted and labeled, as far as practicable, within its grounds. ' DIVISION OF ARCHAEOLOGY. Pennsylvania should be well known by a collection from the contents of mounds that have been unearthed, which tells of an early people inhabit ing the State, antedating the Ameri can Indian. These implements of his tory, arts and crafts should be gather ed at the Musem, that our present and future generations could have a more definite knowledge of these early peo ples. Follow : ng this, the American Indian collec on should be arranged and preservei There are several good collections in heState,now obtainable, and in a few y iars these may be scat tered find lost. They should be ar ranged to show their manner of arts and crafts in war and peace; mon uments, implements, inscriptions, rel ics, dwellings, clothing and food ob tained from their surroundings, each properly shown in its relation to the other. Maps of their paths over the State; origin and meaning of the many Indian names of cities and towns, rivers, etc., throughout the State Then follow with the customs and arts of the early European settlers, and the implements of their arts, crafts, etc. This influence was the nucleus around which the moulding of our early his tory of the State was formed. The early publications, German pie plates, and the hand printing should also be shown. There are historic relics of war and p6ace in which the State Is very rich. Many good collections are scattered throughout the State, and should find a home in the museum. There are also many unmarked historical spots in each county of the Stato which should not be neglected. Either the State or historical society of each county, should see that these are au thentically and intelligently labeled, even if only ultha small bronze tab let on a boulder, so that they may nut be lost to posterity. t'HKFUL AND PINK ARTS Pennsylvania from its earliest times hae produced articles from the looms,! print shops and the forge. The Mint I euiii wishes to make a tine collection I of the articles, including those of ex-i qtiislte make of the present day Tliene ' will include printing, book-binding and ! photography; textiles in cotton, wool, | silk and linen, pottery, glass, terra i cotta, porcelain, mnsalac, ceramics and i; taxing. Articles of metals, bronze, leather and w>tod. All of these articles * to tie of Pennsylvania make only. There are many persons in Cameron 1 county having relies pertaining to ! Pennsylvania, which they wish to pre serve for posterity; there is no morel titling place to preserve and display these to the public than at the State 1 Museum at Harrisburg, where they ! will he well cared for and displayed. 1 The Museum will be glad to receive j any such material, either permanently or as a loan, In the following subjects, I flora, fauna, minerals, geology, arch j neology, arts and history. These 1 should be well labeled, with the name of the specimen, location or any brief historical Incident connected witli It; ' the name and address of tli«« doner should also accompany it.

EDITOR PRESS:— Is there no way that our Borough authorities can punish, or 'fine, the boys who carry sling-shots, Flo ben rifles, etc , and deliberately break win dow glass in private reeidences, barns and chicken coops? I have several times been compelled to replace glass in my barn and hen house, entailing an expense of at least eight dolHkrs. I think theteachersof our schools should search each boy and take from all sling-shots, at the same time reporting their names to Sheriff Norris and chief Mundy. If Ido not mistake the law imposes a heavy fine as well as the cost of damage. Nov. 18th, 1910. H. W. GRAHAM. We have received many complaints, lately, of boys throwing stones at pri vate residences in their efforts to kill innocent English sparrows, thereby cracking if not breaking (windows glass. Complaints have also been made to the PRESS, very recently, of boys actually shooting into the homes of our citizens.
