McKeesport ministers this week be-
gan an organized crusade against cor-

the iniquity they have discovered.

Probably the real sticking point in
the proposed round up of the Cuban
insurgents is that there are not enough
guns to correspond with the enroll-
ment, remarks the Record. Every sol-
dier who shall present himself for his
share of the $3,000,000 is expected to
bring along his gun. The inconveni-
ence of this armangement will be made
apparent if the number of soldiers and
the number of guns shall not tally.
Compressed air has within a short
time been introduced into workshops
as a means of doing many things labo-
riously performed of old by hand.
Weights are lifted and carried from
floor to bench, or lathe, chisel work is
done, giso rivetting, and there are in-
genious devices for employing this
power of compressed air in many
ways.
One effect of the business and Indus
trial revival is a large increase in the
postal revenues. It is estimated at
Washington that the receipts of the
fiscal year will aggregate nearly $100,
000,000, ns contrasted with a recent av-
erage of less than $85,000,000. One re-
sult of this will be to advance many
more postoffices than usual to the next
higher class, and with the advance
. will go larger pay to the postmasters,

chances for war appear to the state de-
the time Admiral Dewey sent his fa-
mous hurry order for the Oregon.
Chioa is now menaced by Germany,
which will ask a heavy indemnity for
the Kiao Chau affair, and by Russia,
which proposes to take Chinese terri-
tory without the formality of a conces-
sion.
It is feared that, while the Chinese
government might settle diplomatieal-
ly her trouble with Germany, growing
out of the killing of three German of-
ficers at Kiso Chau, Russia's threat to
seize the right of way for her Manchu-
ria railway to Peking will aggravate
the Chinese into a clash with either
Germany or Russia or both.

state's high-cock-a-lorum, besides be,
ing Quay's subservient bottle washer,
this Governor Stone is likely to get in-
to the courts, on account of well-found-
ed beliefs that he has violated the Con-
stitution to please his owner, the boss.
His scheme of paring items like the
school fund, instead of using the veto
power, is undoubtedly a usurpation of
power belonging alone to the Legisla-
tare.
He has made some queer contracts,
compelling managers of charities and
other institutions to sign agreements
not to draw the money appropriated.
The Guvernor has played several other
queer prauks in about the same line
and the courts are to be invoked to
bring this petty czar into line with
constitutional duty.
AA AAAS,
An instance of the sincerity of Gov-
ernor Stone's highsounding profess.
ions is furnished by the Philadelphia
‘North American.” The governor ve-
toed a proper appropriation of $1,500
to the widow of a stenographer for
services rendered by her husband to
the Legislature at the session of 1507,
This appropriation the governor ve-
toed upon the ground that the unpaid
accounts of the Legislature of two
years ago ought not to be paid for by
the Legislature of this year. The wid-
ow, therefore, was refused the nioney
due her husband. Sabsequently the
governor, who thus filed his caveat
against the widow's payment, attach-
ed his signature to a bill appropriat-
ing $5,000 to the machine henchmen,
T. Larry Eyre, of Chester county, for
services rendered by that politician as
sergeant-at-arms of the legislative com-
mittees at the session of 1897, the ex-
travagant bills for which were vetoed
by Governor Hastings. The reason-
ing that struck down the widow's ap-
propriation would have been fatal to
the $5,000 voted the Quay heeler,
EY
It seems the President is likely to is-
sue a call for 35,000 men for the war in
the Philipgine islands. The reports
given out for weeks that the war was
about over and that the insurgents
were ready to lay down their arms,
were unfounded.
~The approach of the wet season finds
the insurrection seemingly taking a
new lease of life, All along the Amer-
fean lines the rebels are showing more
aggressive activity, in their guerrilla
style, than at any time before since the

TOO MANY DANDIES.

is a strong feeling among the older
ministers that the broods of pew min-
isters now being hatched out by some
of the seminaries are not of the right
mold for the hard, self-sacrificing and
laborious life of a clergyman.
It bad been said the tendency of the
theological seminaries of these days is
to give the church too many “dandy
ministers. The student in the richer
seminaries, at least, is surrounded by
all of the comforts and many of the
luxuries, and, it is argued, he can
hardly resist the temptation to set
large store on good things of life, to
yearn after fashionable clothes, to ape
the manners and affectations of the
rich, and finally, when he comes out
of the seminary, to cast around for
soe gulet pool fn which to cast his
line or some fine place with a large
church in the cities. Tt is asserted
that if the discipline of the seminaries
were more rigid, if luxuries and even
comforts were sewer, and the embryo
minister were taught to be content
with a plain and a severe living, the
¢hurch would be richer,
