On Friday evening a mootlncr wns
lii'ld at the oji-o of James McKlnney,
iK(., In discuss tin; question of movins

There was a irood altendani'o nf'liusl

John It. Hudd as secretary. Tin? his
tory of the jirovl'iiw efforts toward
jiettlnp a In-idao nt this iiolnt was rjone
over. Jt seems that at one time a
petition was presented nskllitf that
viewers lie appointed liy th? Susque
hanna county court, hut no action was
ever taken on It. hceause there was
no mutually satisfactory boundary lino
t--ialllsh"d between the counties r
Hiisqiiplmmirt and Wajne. The div
iding line at this point is supposed to
run some w litre near the renter of the
Lackawanna river, but (lifeline claims
are made by the different counties as
to Its exact location, liofore anything
would be done by either county in the
matter of a brldiTO, tll"iefore- it would
bo necessary to have each (curt ap
point one Kurwyor and the two chosen
nppoint a third man and have the line
run and proof-rly established. Then a
bridge could bo recominende 1 here and
viewers apnoitited. It was also slated
at the meeting that the Ontario and
"Vf'tern railway people were encus;h
intercteil In the matter to do what
ever lllllliR was neeesynry. which wiuld
be no small item of expense saved. A

i"iincll and work with ifiat body in
an endeavor to have a liridw built hen'.
. lesoliition was also ii.ifsed asking
th' borou'-'h fathers to take Immediate
lotion in the matter nnd recommending
that an attorney be employed to work
Midi the council and committee and
niivls"! them ns to the proper steps to
lii'ce In order to sraln their object. A
r ipiest a also mode that a special
nn 'ting of the council lie called, at
vhlch the bridge 'itiei-tlon might be
diM'iissed and a start made. The meet
ing then adjourned, after authorizing
th" chairman to call a meeting at any

appointed has conferred with the coun

A true gentleman usually feels that tt
Is essential to bo eonr'eous to the least
as to tho greatest, but elliiuetto does not
til ways recognize this. Tho fumouh Tu -I"
yrand Is repoitcd to hao used a grad
uation of politeness In asking his guests
to take beef at a dinner party that lio
gave. ''lie grade ran thus:
To a prince of the blood: "May I have
tin' honor of sending your royal highness
a little beet?"
To a duke: "Monscisneur, permit mo
to send you a little beef."
To a marcpils: "Marquis, may 1 send
you a llttlo beef'.'"
To a viscount: "Viscount, pray have a
I'ltle beef."
To a baron: "Baron, do you tnko been"
To an untitled gentleman: "Jlonslenrr,
somo beef."
To his private secretary: "Reel?"
Hut thero was yet an Inferior person
ase present, and to him Talleyrand ut
tered no word, lio simply looked ut him
and made an Interrogutlvo gesture with
the carving knife. Hut If tho meat vero
good, somo ot us would not trouble .in-ch
how wo were invited to It.
A Short, Ued-faced Irishman."
In a letter to tho editor of the Army
nnd Nuvy Journal, JIaJor U. Fechet,
Sixth Cavalry, says:
"Some tlmo nco t hoard tho following
story of General 1'. II. Sheridan from a
former officer of tho Third Michigan Cav
airy: It seems that when that regiment
first went- out It was without a colonel,
nnd tho officers had an Idea that they
would llko an officer of the regular army
to llll tho vacancy. At this tlmo tho regi
ment was In St. I.ouls, and hearing that
a regular orficei" by tho unmo of Sheridan
was In tho city, and that he wanted the
command of a regiment, a committee wrs
appolntod to go to tho city nnd f,eo him,
or, as tho narrator expressed It, to take.
Sheridan's measure. On tho return of
tho commltte'o tho officers assembled to
hear Its report, which waa as follows:
"Well, we went up and saw Mr. Sheridan.
lie 1b a short, tod-faced Irishman, and
don't seem to amount to much. We do
not think that he would do for colonel of
our regiment.' The gentleman who told
me this story gave the names of othor
ofllccrs of tho regiment, who, ho said,
could vouch for Its truth."

COMING WEEK
IN CONGRESS
The Appropriation Bill to
Be Considered in
the House. '
THE CUBAN SITUATION
Sensational Members Are Un
usually Silent.
Kitrcme Gravity of tho .Situation
Tends to llisnrm Thom--At Any
Tlmo During tho Consideration of
the ipproprlntlnu II 1 1 1 a Stirring
Debate .liny lio Precipitated In
volving tho Keccnl Hciisntiotiul
Uveitis in Connection with tho lix
plonlon ol the .Maine.
Washington, Fob. 20. Unless the Cu
ban question or some phase of the
.Maine disaster should come before tho
liou.se this week, the time, with tho
exception of tomorrow, which, under
an arrangement made Inst week, will
be given up to the consideration of
private bills, will be devoted nominally
at least to the sundry civil appropria
tion bill. This bill will be reported to
the house tomorrow. It Is a very vol
uminous measure, containing all the
odds and ends of appropriations, ns Its
name indicates, and i.s usually produc
tive of more protracted contests than
any of the other appropriation bills.
It Is understood that the Information
regarding the situation In Cuba asked
for last week by -the house has been
prepared by tho state department, and
Is ready for trnnsmlttnl. .Some of the
consular reports bearing on the situa
tion have been edited In some places,
but It is said that the situation as pre
sented probably will call for somo ac
tion, and If the Information goes to the
house this week an effort may be made
to get It before the house In some man
ner. For this reason, nnd In view of
the condition of public sentiment, pend
ing the result of the official Investiga
tion Into the case of the disaster to
the Maine It Is considered probable
that the answer of the state depart
ment will be withheld for several days.
In the face of the catastrophe, which
has occurred, the members of the
house who have usually rushed to the
fore on the occasion of any sensational
development either In foreign or do
mestic affairs, were ominously silent
last week. The extreme gravity of the
situation and the far-reaching conse
quences of hasty or ill-considered ac
tion tended to disarm them, but at
any time during the consideration of
the appropriation bill where the wild
est latitude in debate i nllowed, a
stirring debate Involving tho recent
sensational events In connection with
the explosion of the Maine, the recall
of the Spanish minister and the latest
developments In Cuba may be precipi
tated. Hut those in authority by keeping
the appropriation bill in the right of
way, can easily prevent actual action
by the house If they so dpslro apd tho
prevailing opinion of the conservative
leaders on both sides Is that both ac
tion and agitation are out of place
until all the facts upon which a calm
judgment can be predicted nre known.
TROOPS FOR WGST AFRICA.
Tliirly-i llritlsli Olliccrs.with (Jtian-
titic ot'.Munilioti", I.pmvo London.
London, Feb. 20. Another party ot
thirty-six llritlsh ofllcers and non
commissioned olllcers sailed today for
West Africa, accompanied by Immense
quantities of war munitions.
All the afternoon papers today com
ment upon the gravity of the West
Arlean situation. Mushiest on the Stock
Kxchange was Hat, and Consols were
a quarter of a point lower. An article
In the Westminster Gazette, by Wil
liam T. Stead, says:
"The news from the Niger is only
serious bcause of the news from
France. The net effect of the news
from Paris today Is that France Is
once more In full revolution. The
Third Republic, although nominally
still In situ, no longer exists. The long
expected upset has arrived at last, and
has arrived, almost to the very day,
exactly fifty years utter the Revolution
of 1K4S. The coup d'etat of General
IJoisdeffro differs from tho coup d'etat
of Napoleon III. only In the degree of
brutality of Its accessories. When the
chief or tho French general staff, the
nerve centre of the gray matter of tho
brain which directs, controls nnd gov
erns the whole armed force of France,
enters Into a court of law to proclaim
to a jury that unless they return a
verdict to his liking 'the chiefs who are
at the head of the army, nnd who or
ganize tho national defence, are ready
to leave their task to others,' thero Is
no longer any republican government
in France."
Paris, Feb. 20. Ofllclal utterances
here on the subject of th? West African
troubles decry the alarmist view of tho
situation taken In Great Britain.
Those Dreadful Sores

of Troatmont but Now Thoy aro
Hoalod-A Wondorful Work.
"For many years I havo been a great
Bitflerer with varicose veins on ono of my
limbs. My toot and limb became dread
fully swollen. When I stood up I could
(eel tho blood rushing down the veins ot
this limb. Ono day I accidentally hit my
toot against somo object and a soro broko
out which continued to spread and was
exceedingly painful, I concluded 1
needed a blood purifier and I began taking
Hood's Sarsaparilla. In a short time
thoso dreadful sores which had caused
mo so much suffering, began to heal. I
kept on faithfully with Hood's Sarsapa
rilla, and in a short tlmo my limb was
completely healed and tho sores gavo mo
no moro pain. I catinot ho too thankful
for tho wondorf ul work Hood's Sarsapa

ing of uneasiness over tho Kuropean po.
llllcal situation reflected from nil foreign
exchanges today boforo tho opening of
trading on tho Now York exchange, Tho
collision of lirlttsh and French authori
ties. In the Niger district ot Africa and
tho excited condition of tho public mind
In Franco were tho mothes of tho heavi
ness which In London resulted In a fall
ot 'i In llritlsh consols. American se
curities wcro affected by the general

siderations growing out of the Cuban sit
uation. Declines In Americans reached a
Iiolnt in London in a number of cases
beforo tho opening hero and as a conso
quenco selling orders were placed for
London account at the opening hero.
Thero was no local support for prices. On
tho contrary thero was a resumption ol

Chicago, Feb. 19. May wheat today
reached tin flood mark of the recent De

showed oven moro sensational strength
and closed nt 92c, or 314c. over yester
day's prlco after selling ns high as IC&c.
Tho most Important Information wheat
traders had to start with was tho state
ment mndo by Joseph Letter that ho had
engaged ocean freight room for 1,000,000
bushels of his wheat, nil of which had
been sold to millers nnd consumers. Tho
result was a very strong opening,, May
starting tine hanged to ',40. higher from
11.0314 to $1.01 and advancing at ouca to
$1.06. Thero was a remarkable scarcity
of offerings and It look but n llttlo buy
