Pneus monia and consumption are decimating their ranks more than any other of the diseases introduced to them by the whites. Congressman Lewis F. Watson, died very suddenly on the morning of the 25, in Washington. He was about to enter his carriage at the Shoreham hotel to drive to the eapitol, at about 11 o'clock, when he was suddenly overcome by an attack of heart disease, and died soon af. ter being carried into the hotel. Mr. Waison represented the twenty-seventh Pennsylvania disirict, and his death makes the third which has taken place in the ranks of the Pennsylvania dels gation this season, He was an elderly man and bad been in feeble health for some time past, Passing Away. The Iodian who roamed the forests of our county and state has passed away, and the Pacific slope alone knows him, But with the once proud aboriginee has also, or is passing away, the majestic pine nader which poor Lo roamed, and bunted, and yelled his war whoop. These grand tiees remained near a cen- tury after the red man disappeared, but the last twenty years have thinned out these stately monarchs of the forest, un~ til there is scarce a tall pive left in Cen- tre county to show what noble stems our hills and dales were wooded with, Oar forests are disappearing —what is left is second class hemlock, with some other species of trees, while the pine and other first-class timber have fallen under the axe of the brawny armed woodman, A large, stately pine, is now a curiosity in Centre county; the insatiable maw of the steam saw mill bas fallen upon him for a third of a century with a voracity that knew no fill, uotil the last tree was served up. Why not let an occasional tree of this kind stand as a monument of what once populated our soil? bat it is too late—our forests have about disap~ peared with the Indian. The order of business for the remain- der of the session, arranged by the re- publican committee of the senate, pro. vides that consideration of the tariff bill all be completed without interruption except by appropriation bills and con- ference reports. Senator Aldrich, in charge of the tariff bill, will before the senate meets to morrow, endeavor to reach an agreent with the democratic senators as to the date on which voting shall begin on the bill and amendments, If successful, he will then ask unanimous consent to have the voling begin on the date agreed upon. He will also ask that the debate daring the last three days shall be conducted under the five min ute rule. The democrats desire that the six hours next preceding the final vote on the bill shall be occupied in general debate to be equally divided between the two sides. Under this arrangement, if it is carried out, Carlisle will close for the democrats and Aldrich for the re. pnbiicans, The programme for the week's proceedings in the house has al- ready been agreed upon by that body, as to a part of the time, and the time rules committees will probably provide for the disposition of the remainder, A pn Why was the farming element ignored in the formation of the Rush township county ticket? Not a sop was offered the farming class in the way of a nomi- nation. Never before, in the history of this county, was the farmer so glaringly ignored as in the Rash township Repubes lican county ticket, Is the farmer entis tled to no respect 7 is he to be looked down upon as an animal to be preyed upon by oppression, high-tarifl taxesand a nonentity in the body politic? This is the meaning of the Rush township Re- publican county ticket, Take the Democratic county ticket gee how largely and freely it bas honor- ed and recognized the farmer by accor. ding to bim every place of importance. There is an abundance of farmers jost as competent to fill public positions as can be found in any other class, yet, true to its tradition, the Republican party ig pores the agricuilurist, They bribe men not to vote in Chat~ tanooga, Tenn, instead of bribing them to vote a particular licket, 28 at the blocks-of-five stands in Indiana and New York. The Tennessee law requires a man to be registered and to secure a certificate giviog him the right to voter which he must present at the polls be« fore he can crst his ballot, “Negroes,” siys the Observer, a newspaper edited and published by colored men, “sold their election certificates by wholesale, This accounts for the light vote. The depraved rascals sold their rights for a glass of beer, 50 cents or $1. We stood in the Fifth district at Ridgedale and enw a clab of thirty colored men who in a body sold their votes for $150. This was the experience in other places.” The colored editor is filled with just in~ dignation and declares that “the whole brood should be disfranchised.” a a A] We see from the Harrisburg Patriot that Democratic day at the Williams grove picnic was not recognized either by Pattison, the state committee or the Democratic organisation of Camberland county for the reason that “Democratic day" was fixed for the poorest day of the gatheriog--yet Pattison is the favorite of the farmer element, Delemster’s day, Thursday, is the best day of the show, This looks as if there was some playing into the hands of the Republicans. Let the Centre county committee for the grange picnic put its foot down on the head of the concern, and not allow personal and political spite to be carried out—for fear the picnic cause suffer by it. It seems that the vilest Republican sheet is a great favorite with the head of oar picnic, and that the Democratic papers are ignored. CHURCH QUARREL. The Mob takes charge of a Church and Theatens to Throw the Clergyman out. A church quarrel at Howard caused by an attempt of the Disciple church to re. instate an elder in opposition to the oth- er officials of the congregation, is causing intense excitement among the members of the church and has led to the arrest of a clergyman. The history of the trouble dates back to 1842, when Elder Nathan J. Mitchell withdrew from the congregation, This action was caused by a financial difficul. ty he had with another member named Lucas, Boon afterwerd Lucas, who claimed his son had been abused by an- other elder of the church, also withdrew from the Howard congregation and uunit- ed with another of the same denomina-~ to read it. Hayden again attempted to read it, when the elders commanded the sheriff to remove him, He was taken out at one door, but went around the church and entered a side door, and determined not to be out: done, again attempted to read his paper, The elders requested the congregation to sing, aud continue singing for a little while, and one man was dispatched to a justice of the peace for a warrant, On his return the legal document was place. ed in the hands of the co stable, who placed the revered gentleman under ar- rest for distarbiog a religions meeting, The constable and the minister proceed. ed to the 'squire’s office where bail was given for the latler'sappearance at court, In the meantime the service cluded and all had gone home. And so the matier re ts. The Belle- was con- tion at Eagleville. Daring all this time | matters were kept in a ferment by gos- | sips of the neighborhood. Finally Liuces| who is a wealthy man, became dissatisfi-| ed at Eagleville and asked for readmir-| sion at Howard. This was refused ex cept on conditions which were distoste- ful to Lucas, A few years afterward Rev, W. L.Hay- den, of Bellefonte, formerly of Washing. | ton, Pa., attempted to heal the old sore. He, however, was at first of the same mind as the elders, and stated that Lucas should not be admitted on hisown terms, | Rev. Hayden spent a great deal of his time at the Lucas mansion. and as the result of this, it is asserted, he changed his mind with regard to the elders sin and recommended that be should be re. ce.ved into the fold on his own terms. The other officials refused to do this, and the fight became more bitter than ever. A meeting of the church council, com posed of ministers from Williamsport, Lock Haven, Beech Creek and other! places, was held and Hayden's policy sus tained. The elders were censured for their obstinacy and a new church organs ization efiected, Orrin IL. Noble, an als! derman of Lock Haven, was appoint :d| to make known the decision the | church council, and at a Sunday service a few weeks ago he altempted to do so. When the congregation gathered there came (0 the church, by request of the elders, who anticipated trouble a con- stable and Everything went along with Christian-like meekness and simplicity until the service for the! day was about ended, when Alderman | Noble arose and said he had a paper he wanted to read. He wes at once told to sit down. This Le reiused to do and commenced to read the paper, gregation commenced to sing. The re-| sult was Alderman Noble wes “sang down.” Three times he essayed to read his paper, and three times he was sung! down, The thing was now getting monotonous and at the fourth attempt Noble was or- dered to keep quiet. A wordy war fol lowed and language the reverse of polite was used. Noble again attempted to read his paper, when the elders called in the assistance of the constable, and between that official and one of his de- puties Noble wes led out of the church and the door locked, This victory on the part of the elders greatly angered the opposition and & council was called to meet at Mt, Eagle for the purpose of deposing Elder Head- ly from the pastorate of that church. The congregation was notified and when the council, composed of about half a dozen ministers, reached the church they found it locked and no key to be found. Noth. ing dauated, they entered window and then broke open the door, They had just begun an executive session, when a crowd of about thirty men and boys en- tered the edifice and demanded an un- conditional surrender and immediate re- treat of the council, This the clergymen at first flatly refused to do, They were told that unless they departed at once they would be taken up bodily and pitch - ed head first through the window. Soon. er than go oul of the church in this un dignified manner the clergy withdrew, and the boys set up a yell of “Rotten egg 'em!” Rotten egg 'em !” The council repaired to the school house, and the re- sult of that meeting hes not yet been made public, The Mt, Eagle defeat in addition to that at Howard, caused Hayden to de. termine to act himself and on Sunday August 10 accompanied by sheriff Cooke, of Bellefonte, he came to Howard and entered the church at the regular hour of service. Before the opening of service Rev. Hayden attempted to read a paper He was ordered to stop and also was sang down after which the elders ordered Rev Headly to proceed with his sermon. At the conclusion of the service, and just before the benediction was pronounced, Rev. Hayden again attempted to read his paper. Pandemonium followed and “You're a liar,” “You're no gentleman,” and such terms were flang back and forth, Finally Rev. Hayden appealed to Sheriff "ig i § i of two deputies, i i i The con- | fonte congregation hes notified Hayden that bis salary will not be paid after October 1. He flatly refuses to and says his coming trial will com- Bev, in the right, The elders are equally con- fident of sustaining their position and ‘making it Lot” for the preacher.— Wil. liamsport Sun, : a An incident which occurred at Alder execution, that he could have resuscita. ted that criminal after the first applica- tion of the current. Some soldiers, who had been watching a game of cricket, took shelter from a storm under a tree, The tree wes struck by lightning, and the six men under it were apparently killed. Surgeon Frank, of the medical staff, was immediatly on the spot, and after untiring efforts at resuscitation success. fully restored five of the six men who bad been struck. It was stated at the inquest over the single victim that but for the persistent efforts of Sargeon Frank to restore ress been saved. This instance of the efficacy of artifi- ial respiration in restoring animstion in persons struck by lightning, should be widely circulated, that no effort my be 10 revive persous unfortunate enough to recevive a shock of electicity sufficient to kill them, apparently. - The 500 or 800 people who live in Eastern Arapahoe county,Colo., near the Kansas line, are in a state bordering on siarvation. A cummiltes representing the settiers isin Denver to-day seeking aid of the county commissioners, Crops are an absolute failure this vsar, and as the country is new, the first setilement having been made only three years ago the people have no resources, and they find winter approaching without any prospect of pulling through it alive with. out assistance. The people are now bare. ly subsistiog and it is the experience of cattle men who occupid the county with their herds previous to the farmers com. ing in there that no country is more rigorous than this section of the plains. Already hundreds of families have come to Colorado from Western Kansas where they report that the corn, wheat and oats still remain in the ground, or have been eaten by birds, There was not enough moisture in the ground to sprout it until fall rains set in a week or two ago. At Colorado Spring quite a number of Kanses families are living in tents. All seem to be thriving and in good health, having secured work since their arrival, cam I-A ——— Passengers on the steamer Arafo cons firm the report that Mount Bogoslov, Alaska, is in a slate of eruption.

During the debate on the compound lard bill yesterday in the house Repre- sentative Mason of Chicago, a Republi- can who led the fight against the bill, took occasion to comb down Ben Butters worth, who had made a vigorous speech in its favor. “I remember,” paid the Chicago statesman, “a few months sgo Mr. Butterworth pulied the eternal day- lights out of the McKinley bill. The Democrats applauded the little Napoleon (McKinley) turned pale and the magnis ficent speaker (pointing at Reed) looked like a pagan giantin despair, but when the bell rang the gentleman from Ohio walked up to the trough ate his dish of crow and voted for the tariff bill, I am glad he favored this bill in a speech, for I feel certain from his record he will vote agaiost it.” The Democrats really en~ joyed the reference to Butterworth's cow- ardice on the McKinley bill and many Republicans joised in the applause, oe ——- The arrangement agreed upon for clos ing the debate on the tariff’ bill was sub- mitied to the senate yesterday. Benator Plumb surprised hie colleagues by ob- jecting on the ground it did not give suf- ficient time to discuss reciprocity, or what should be dome in restraint of trusts or the possible bankruptey of the treasury, Under this objection the ar rangement went over until today. The plan agreed to by both parties continues the general discussion up to and inclode ing Beptember §; then there is to be a five-minute debate for three days: then the amendments are to be voted on without debate, and after three hours allowed to each side for general debate the final vote will be taken on the pass age of the.

There is but a half crop of winter fruit in the famous Aunapolis Valley of Nova Sootia, and a still greater redaction in the apple belt of Southern and Western Ontario and Michigan along the lakes. In Maine and limited sections of Ver- mont and New Hampshire there is 8 fair yield of apples, being the best in Maine. Throughout southern New England, New York, Pennsylvania New Jersey and the interior states generally the promise of the winter fruit is worse than ever be. fore known, The apple belt of western Sew York. along Lakes Ontario and Erie, which in good season ships much more than one million barrels to New York or foreign markets, has almost no crop whatever this year, mR The Washington Democrat says that Hon. J. B. Clark, who raises about the finest wool in Western Pennsylvania, has just shipped his clip to Utica Mills at Utica, N. Y., where he received 40 cents per pound for it. During Cleveland's administration he got 45 and 50 cents per pound, while previous to the war, before the high tariff times, Mr. Clark got 70 and 75 cents for the same grade of wool, When he was selling his wool at this rate the duty was only 24 per cent on the higher grades of wool and the coarse qualities were admitted duty free. And at that time there were upward of 900.- 000 more sheep in Pennsylvania than there are to-day. With the high tariff wool growing has fallen off one-half in the State and prices of fine wool have declined. sem — op The steamer Oceanic, from China and Japan, which arrived Friday brings alarming tidings concerning the spread of the cholera scourge in the Orient.

Carlisle of Kentucky, made a speech on the McKinley bill on the floor of the senatea few days ago, which the mostiable and eloquent ad- vocates of the protective system could no tore answer than they could take a trip to the moon, He showed very plainly that the workingmen of this country have not the tariff to thank for the wage es they receive, and at the same time knocked the props fromm under the argument that free trade or lower rates of duty would equalize the slandard of wages in this and other countries. Probably the most felling blow the able senator from Kentucky dealt his re. publican hearers was when be referred to the fact that the farmers of the cons stitution of the United Slates, more than 100 years ago, wisely provided for absol« ute free trade between all the states that then composed or should thereafter com- pose the American Union. That Union consists now of 44 great states inhabited by 64,000,000 or 65,000,000 of indastriovs and enterprising people engaged in every occupation to which the human band can be put or machinery can be applied. The trade between these states is larger by thousands of millions of dollars than could ever exist between this and all the other countries of the world if we had Mr, Carlisle pointed out that the inter- changes of commerce are made between the forty-four states with absolute free- dom. The products of Obio, said he, go into Pennsylvania and New York. and are sold without any duty or any ob struction whatever. The products of Penasylvania and New York go into Ohio and Kentucky and Missouri, and are solid without any duties whatever; and yet this absolute free trade between forty-four states and 65,000 indus trious people has n tequalized the rate of wages in this coanfiry. We do not wonder that the republican senators eat in their seats like so many wooden men after Carlisle had fiinished his able and logical discourse. Not one of them could show that the ground tas ken in bis argument was untenable and it is fair to accept their silence as an ad. mission that what he said was true. It must be humiliating to those who favor & monopolistic tariff to hear their pet policy justly and logically sesailed with- out being able to make satisfactory reply. — ————— Marriage Licenses, Fellowing is the list of marriage licens es issued dorog the past week at the register’s office in Bellefonte: Charles Wagoner, of Harrisburg, Pa. snd Annie B.
