Globe Warehouse
Thursday, April 7, marked the thir
tieth anniversary of the day upon
which ex-City Assessor H. D. Jones, of
North Hyde Park nvenue, launched
Into the grocery business. And, more
over, tho whole thirty years are consec
utivo and were spent upon this side.
Twenty-five years In one building,
whore he still is, at 1109 Jackson street.
Few. If any, of the business men of
this city, can boast of that many con
secutive years of actual business ca
reer, nnd yet Mr. Jones Is not looking;
forward to an early retirement. His
fifty-six odd years rcst lightly upon his
shoulders, though his hair nnd mous
tache are long since gray.
His store Is a rendezvous for some of
the old pioneers of this section and
many an Interesting tale one can hear
by dropping In some afternoon when
business Is slack and a few of the older
ones nte exchanging comparisons of
"what Is" and "what has been."
Born on December 28, 1541, at Cnr
bondale, he was one of a family of ten
children of Mf. and Mrs. Daniel Jones.
His father wns one of the enrllcr mine
operators nnd very successful, though
when the war occurred ho lot nearly
everything. Shortly after Mr. Jones'
birth, the family removed to Newcas
tle, Schuylkill county, but after a two
yenrs' residence there they moved baok
to Carbondalo In 1853 the subject of
this sketch worked In tho old rolling
mills and later In the "Sandy Banks,"
or the present Pine Brook mines. The
coal was taken from a drift then and
tho screens were worked by hand in
tho "coffee pot" breaker. He later
spent a couple of years learning the
tailor trade under Tailor George Evans,
famous In the early days of Scranton.
In 1S57, after returning from a west
ern trip, he entered the employment of
the well-known Arm of D. T. Richards
and Esdras Howell, who kept the big
grocery store near the old "White Tav
ern." He wns with this Arm six years,
and two years more with Thomns Ey
non and company. Ho again went west
nnd returned in the early part of 186S
determined to bo into business for him
self. April 7, 1868, he bought tho firm of
Stark and Cannon, at 103-7 South Main
avenue, and conducted his business
trwre for five years. He then removed
to the store property at 1109 Jackson
street, which he had purchased and has
remained there since.
Mr. Jones has been an active Repub
lican and wns city assessor for several
years. He Is a Mason, Belonging to
the Hyde Park lodge, a member or tne
Frnnklln Engine company, the Repub
lican clubs, nnd the West Side Board
of Trade. He has served upon the offi
cial board of the Simpson Methodist
Episcopal church since 1855. The one
thing outside of his business which Mr.
Jones temembfrs most clearly Is the
vicissitudes of being the first vigilant
of the Fifth ward in I860, appointed to
the office by Mayor E. M. S. Hill.

The System Needs Renovating
ami Purifying.
As pring ap

north pole be
comes more tilt
ed towards the
sun.whlch brings
the sun more di
rectly overhead.
The rays becom
ing more perpen
dicular, are hlgh-
ly charged with
electrical power.
This new relation between the earth
and the sun produces a class of physi
cal disorders peculiar to spring. The
symptoms are quite unlike in different
cases, but the most common ones are
general lassitude, played-out, tired-out,
used-up, run-down feelings, combined
with a more or less heavy, stupid, list
less mental condition. Relish for food
and the ability to digest food seem to
be lost. Skin eruptions, sallow com
plexion, bllllousness, coated tongue, fit
ful Irregular sleep, help to complete the
picture which Is so common at this
season. Life Is a burden, business a
dread, pleasure a mockery, friends a
bore, nnd social privileges o tedious
round of disagreeable tasks. Pe-ru-na
so exactly meets all these conditions
that tho demand Is so great for this
remedy at this season of tho year that
it Is nearly Impossible to supply It.
Carloads of Pc-ni-na aro shipped north,
south, east and west to meet the ever
Increnslng demand of tho people for It.
It never falls to bring Immediate relief.
Mrs. B. A. Harrison, Rlson, Ark., says:
"Nothing too good can be satd of your
medicines. They are better than you
represent them."

From the Troy Times.
By the constitution congress nlone
has power to declare war. The consti
tution confers on the president the
whole executive power. He Is bound
to take care that the laws are faith
fully executed. He la commander-in-chief
of the army and navy of the
United States nnd of the militia of the
several states when called Into actual
service of the United States.
The president has no power to In
itiate or declare war either against a
foreign nation or a domestic state. He
Is authorized to call out tho mllita and
use the military and naval forces of the
United States In case of Invasion by
foreign nations, and to suppress In
surrection against the government of
a state or states.
If a war be made by Invasion of a
foreign nation, tho president Is not
only authorized but bound to resist
force by force. He does not Initiate
the war, but is bound to accept the
challenge without waiting for any spe
cial legislative authority. The battles
of Palo Alto and Resaca de la Palma,
In the Mexican war, had been fought
before congress passed an act which
recognized "a state of war as existing
by the net of the republic of Mexico."
Th act of congress not only provided
for the future prosecution of the war,
but was Itself a vindication nnd rati
fication of the act of the president In
accepting the challenge without a pre
vious formal declaration of war by
congress. (Prize cases, 2 Black's U. S.
Reports, 635.)
It has been Judicially declared that
tho civil war commenced April 19, 1SC1
(Swlnerton v. Columbian Ins. Co., 37 N.
Y 147; Burnslde v. Matthews, 64 N. Y.,
78), when the ports of the confederate
states were blockaded by the naval
power under a proclamation of the
president bearing that date. Still, we
know that hostilities commenced before
that date, for on April 12, 18C1. by the
special order of the secretary of war
of the confederate states, lire was
opened on Fort Sumter. April 15 Presi
dent Lincoln Issued a proclamation
calling forth the militia of the several
states to the number of 75,000, and de
claring certain states In rebellion. Still,
congress did not "declare war" until
July 13, 1861.
Thus It will be seen that while the
president has no power to Initiate or
declare war, ho Is authorized to resist
force by force, nnd to accept tho chal
lenge of any power to battle without
waiting for congress to act.

HOARDING HOUSE GEO.UKTllY
Our anthracite coal fields were first dis
covered by a hunter named Nlcho Allen,
during tho tlmo George Washington was
president. Allen encamped one night In
the Schuylkill regions, kindling his fire
upon some bluck stones. Ho went to
sleep near tho lire, and awoke to find
himself almost roasted. Tho stones were
on lire, and unthrucito wns burning for
tho first time. A company was orgunkitd
shortly after this for the purpose of sell
ing this coal, but met with little success.
It was taken around to tho blacksmiths,
but thoy, not knowing how to use It.
would havo nothing to do with It. Somo
of It was shipped to Philadelphia by a
Colonel Shoemaker and sold there. It
was so unsatisfactory that a writ was
gotten out from the city authorities de
nouncing the colonel as a knave and a
scoundrel for trying to Impose rocks on
them for coal.
