February IT. 1KH7.
The sun of prosperity is above tbe
horizon, and the skies grow brighter
ever' day.
Edison was fifty years old last Wed
nesday. Not yet an old man, and what
a record he haa made !
KrxNixu the blockade at Charleston
now is a different thing from what it
was some thirty-five yeara ago.
The President killed more ducks on
Saturday than he ever did in his life.
He finds it really better sport than cut
ting off the heads of unruly office
holders. Th e number of men who are anxious
to serve their country for a considera
tion appears to le unusually large. It
has increased mueh faster than the
places have multiplied.
IIoi'EKfi.xKW and confidence take
down the bars impeding prosperity's
advance. Pessimism and distrust fasten
them up. liood times were never yet
hastened ly bal predictions.
Seckctaky of Agriculture Morton is
out ill another lamentation against the
free distribution of seeds. Happily for
Mr. Morton's peace of mind, he will
soon be relieved of all responsibility on
that score.
Tnr. annual report of the Civil Ser
vice Commission shows that there arc
now S7,K7 Federal places in the classi
fied service, and that of the 1,10 not
yet classified W,17 are fourth-class post
masterships, which the commission
thinks should also be embraced in the
classification.
The (tovemor of Nevada has been
personally endorsed by James J. Cor
liett. "It needed some governor, with
the courage of his convictions, to break
the ice in matters of this kiud," ex
claimed Mr. Corbett, addressing that
worthy. But Mr. Corbett's figures of
speech went astray. The other States
make things too warm for prize-fighters
to even suggest the idea of ice.
Secretary Herbert is much offend
ed at the jokes being poked at the new
navy. He says there is a strong tend
ency to exaggerats defects and acci
dents, and to write down the new bat
tleships. The attention given to the
navy by all the papers is the best evi
dence of g"iieral interest in the subject.
A vast amount of money is lieing in
vested in the navy, and the nearest ap
proach to perfection is demanded by
the people. It is in that spirit that
mst of the criticisms are offered.
Someoxe who has taken the trouble
to ascertain the political complexion of
all the legislatures of the forty-five
States finds that there is a grand total
of 34u.i H.'puhlieans, 2AM Democrats,
r.Al Populists, and 214 Fusionists, a
clear I Republican majority of 550. In
the Legislatures of twelve Southern
States there are ISsit Democrats, 3ti lie-
publicans, and 2w4 Populists, which ex
hibit will be an unpleasant surprise to
the Populists who have supposed that
they are making much progress in the
South.
The German Government has just
completed strike statistics for the year
s!t!. There were thirty strikes of
large proportions, and not one of them
was successful. Over one hundred
thousand employes were involved, and
in each instance operations were resum
ed under conditions existing at the
time the strikes were ordered. The
statistics of Germany do not differ ma
terially from those of other countries,
and the sentiment is growing every
where that for the settlement of labor
difficulties, strikes are not eminently
siii'cessful.
Very few persons will be surprised
at the reports that the Cuban insur
gents will refuse to surrender on the
promise of the reforms just outlined
by Spain. These promises have a more
impressive sound for Europe than they
have for the United States. To the
Cubans thev are utterly delusive. The
proposed changes, if carried out in good
faith, would not meet the demands of
even the most moderate of the insur
gents, and these believe they would
not thus le carried out. The fact that
these concessions are offered, however,
indicates that Spain is far less hopeful
of suppressing the rebellion than she
was a year ago.
The reports which come from Rhode
Island and other Eastern states of the
re-opening of mills which have long
been idle, and of the increase in the
running hours of others which have
licen in operation, are significant. They
show that an industrial awakening is
b.-ginning to take plf'". The bank
clearances recently revciil steady gains
over the corresponding periods twelve
months earlier, and the figures of com
mercial agencies show a decline in the
number of business failures. Thus an
improvement is under way in two direc
tions. Trade is increasing, and it is
carried on under better conditions than
those which prevailed a few months
ago.
Steak er Keek, it is reported, will
appoint but three committees at the ex
tra -tension of Congress Ways and
Means, Ilules and Mileage the object
liciug to prevent untimely agitation of
the currency question. If this is his
conclusion, it must te obvious that he
is consulting the wishes of the Presi
dent, and that the latter will, in bis
message to Congress at its extra session.
confine himself to the single topic of
revenue. This fully agrees with the
reported views of Major McKinley,
and is in accord with Republican pol
icy. The country is on the verge of
prosperity a prosperity possibly great
er than has Iven heretofore experienc
ed prosperous as have b.-u some peri
ods of our national existence. Signs
are multiplying of a restoration of con
fidence, and a disposition to embark in
enterprises of moment, always provi
ded the people can be sure that their
hojes will not be made illusory by ill
timed agitation.
Ix many respects the inauguration
of William McKinley and Garret A.
Holiart will be the most Important, the
most interesting and the most spectac
ular in the history of the nation. Ma
jor McKinley's remark to a newspaper
correspondent that it would be sure to
be the very worst day of the year, be
cause so many prejiarations were being
made, was a pleasant reminder of the
numerous inauguration days be had
witnessed, on most of which the weath
er wa abominable. But it is very prob
able that the Major is not expecting
much in tbe hope of getting more sun-
tdiin for his modesty. u!.v the ele
ments can keep the event from being
magnificent fn every detail.
Aside from the purely physical part
of the proceedings, it will be a most
auspicious happening in every way.
The sentiment of it more nearly ap
proaches the full and felicitous mean
ing of the union of the best thought
and industry of the country than auy
other occurrence of the century. The
fact that ex-Con federates will join as
heartily in the observance as any oth
ers, and the real wiping away of sec
tional feeling and sectional lines must
fill the thoughtful citizen with the pro
foundest gratification.
All who can should go to Washing
ton to witness this historical event. It
is the last inauguration of the century,
and it is not only the inauguration of a
new president, but also the inaugura
tion of a new era and of pood times.
Counsellors of Experience.
Kochcxter rwtrExpremi (Ip.)
"Old men for council' seems to lie the
principle upon which Major McKinley
has proceeded in constituting hisCaMnct.
Sherman is 74 years old, Gage 61. Alger

himself, who is 5.1, being considerably tbe
junior of any member of hjs official fam

former Cabinet, and it is retnemlered
that some heaJs of departments were
really in the bloom of youth when they
assumed their responsibilities. Alexan

of the Treasury, was but 32 when Wash

however, to fear, that, in mental vigor or
natural force, any member of the incom

Eastings Wants Chang.
The views of Governor Hastings on the
treasury situation and appropriations,
with special reference to the school ap
propriation, were emphatically expressed
in an address of welcome at the conven
tion of the State association of school di
rectors. "I ""see some members of the
legislature in this meeting," said the
Koveruor, "and I want to take advautage
of the opportunity to say to them that
the state of Pennsylvania is big enough
and rich enough to provide liberally for
the education of every child within . its
borders.
"The present system of distrilmting
the school appropriation of f.i.oOo.OHO,
added the governor, "is not fair to the
real interests involved. The number of
taxables is not the proper basis. Kach
school house with its appliances cost
about as much, whether attended by ten
or fifty pupils. If the stale appropria
tion was increased to $3,0110,0(10 a year I
would suggest that oue-third of that
amount should be divided on the num
lier of school houses or teachers, one
third according to the number of school
children and the other third, possibly,
as at present, on the number of taxables.
The country boys and girls should be
given the same advantages as those of
the city. I believe that every township
should have a high school. That is the
law in Massachusetts, ami Pennsylvania
should not be behind that state.'
Made tbe Haa Work.
New York, Fell, li Edward Stanley,
of Itrooklyn, is of the opinion that three
years is long enough for any man in his
station in life to mind children and keep
house. He told bis wife a few days ago
that unless a change was made he would
cut her throat. She caused his arrest,
and he appeared in the Lee Avenue Po
lice Court to-day on the charge of threat
ening to kill her.
Stanley was married eight years ago.
Three years ago he lost his job and was
unable to find another. Mrs. Stanley got
employment in a laundry, where she is
still at work. In her absence during tbe
day Stanley looked after the children and
did the house work.
On Tuesday he rebelled and declared
that unless a change was made he would
cut his wife's throat. AVhen he was ar
raigned in Court o-day he said: "Look
at me. I'm a man in the prime of life.
How would you. Judge, like tbe life that
I've had for a long time? Other married
men go around with the boys. I've been
compelled to mind my own children. I've
washed and dressed them, kept them al
ways looking neat. Then I've done all
the cooking for the whole family, besides
the cleaning. Not until everything was
finished, everything looking trim and
neat and the children having their after
noon nap did I get a chance to read a
novel and smoke my pipe. I've often
spoken to my wife about having a change.
I think she ought to let me have a chance
to go out and work, just for a change, you
know. It wouldn't make any difference
to her and it would make me feel like a
new man. But, no, she wants me to
drudge along. I simply said I would cut
her throat so as to have something to say.
I didn't mean anything wrong."
Mrs. Stanley said she was willing to
mind tbe children and do all the house
work, too, and in default of UK) bail
Stanley was remanded for a hearing.
A Bank Bobbery Foiled.
Salts Br no. Pa., Feb. li This after
noon while Assistant Cashier J. A Kling
ensmith was alone in the Saltsburg 1-ank
a colored man entered, and, covering
him with a revolver, demanded that he
hand over the money lying on the coun
ter. Without hesitation Mr. Klingen
smith gave him the money which amount
ed to about V. The negro left the bank
quietly and walked rapidly down the
street to the railrosd and then ran across
the birdge to tha Westmoreland side. In
the meantime Cashier Klingensmith and
a crowd of citizens started in pursuit.
In crossing the bridge a buggy was met,
which was pressed into service, and by
this means the robber was finally over
taken. Telephone messages had leen
sent and several men were waiting along
the route with shotguns.
Seeing that his case was hopeless, he
fired a shot or two without effect and
then surrendered and handed over the
money. As he was brought to town two
men who had been seen with him be
fore the robbery jumped upon a passing
freight train. In his pockets were found
two cards, containing the addresses of a
store and a woman, both on Ferry street,
Pittsburg. He was taken to Indiana on
the evening train.
Indiana, Pa., Feb. H The unknown
man who held up the Saltsburg banker
last Friday is now in jail here. He was
subjected to a bath, which revealed that
he was not a negro. He had blackened
his face with cork, and when he came
from the tub he was found to lie very fair
a f complexion. He gives no name
other t dan "Billy," and aays he is half
Indian, his father being a white man and
his mother a squaw.
Xedal For a Brave Xaa.
Washixotox, D. C, Feb. li A medal
of honor has been presented to George
W.Mears, of Rupert, Pa., late sergeant,
Company A, Sixth Pennsylvania Re
serve Volunteers, for most distinguished
gallantry in action at Gettysburg, Pa.,
July 2, lsa
This non-commissioned officer discov
ered a party of rebel sharpshooters lo
cated in a log house who were pouring
a destructive fire into his regiment, and
at the bead of five volunteers he gallantly
charged upon the house, and with great
heroism dptured the rebels, some 12 or
13 in number, and conveyed them back
to bis regiment.
Thousands are suffering excruciating
misery from that plague of the night.

Dowa At Harrisbarg.
Senator Brown, of Philadelphia, haa
introduced a bill to amend the Baker
ballot law. Under this amendment all
nominees are to be put in groups, accord
ing to the office and not the party, tbe
party name being put opposite the name
of each candidate, instead of at the top of
the column as at present.
If the bill introduced by Senator An
drews, of Crawibrd county, should be
come a law, every qualified voter in the
Commonwealth will be required to vote
at each and every general election.
Judges of elections are by it required
to prepare a correct list after the polls
close, of all voters who have failed to
vote; this list to be transmitted to the
clerks of the courts. The persons so fail
ing to vote are to show cause liefore the
court why a fine should not be imposed
on them. Sickness or absence from the
district in which the election is held is a
valid excuse for not voting. The fine is
fixed at $3 and costs, and the property of
the person so offending to tho amount of
fino is to be exempt for liability for said
fine and judgment. The fines collected
shall go to the public school fund of the
county in which they arc iiuMised.
An effort will lie made In-fore the closo
of the session to pass a bill prohibiting
the nse of oleomargarine and butterine
in hotels and eating houses.
Representative French, of Washington
county, has introduced a bill, the object
of which is to provide counsel for prison
ers committed to prison to await trial,
when the defendant shall make affidavit
that he has no money or property to pay
counsel. The county is liable for ? in
cases of misdemeanor; flO if the charge is
felony, forgery or perjury, and fcifi if it
is murder.
It is proposed to abolish the December
registration of voters. The objection to
the semi-annual system is that there is
little change of residence outside of the
large cities, and no good reason to war
rant the expense of a December registra
tion. Representative Sanner, of Somerset,
has introduced a bill enlarging and de
fining the duties of burgesses.
Mueh talk is heard in regard to remov
ing tbe Slate Capitol from Harrisburg; at
least ten cities have already put in claims
for the honor. It will all end in talk,
however, as Harrisburg is undoubtedly
the most available site for tbe State Capi
tol and the executive headquarters.
Confessional Secrets.
Montreal, Feb. li A very interest
ing case, involving the secrets of the con
fessional, is likely to come before tbe
Courts in the course of a few days. The
facts are these : About three years ago
the jewelry establishment of M. Cochen
thaler, on St. James street, was robbed
of several thousands of dollars' worth of
jewelry. Notwithstanding all the efforts
of the authorities no light was thrown
on the affair until a few days ago. In the
meantime, the Dominion Burglary and
Guarantee Company, with whom Mr.
Cocheuthalcr was insured, paid to the
latter claims amounting to 12700.
A few days ago a man named Kiernan,
who had been employed as night watch
man by Mr. Cochen thaler and others in
the neighborhood, was arrested on sus
picion of theft. A search of his house
brought to light several articles which
Mr. Cochenthaler identified as some of
the goods that had been stolen from his
store.
Kiernan subsequently made a confes
sion, in which he acknowledged that he
bad committed tbe burglary, telling at
length the manner in which he bad per
formed the deed. But the large quantity
of jewelry proved au elephant on his
bands, and as his conscience pricked him
severely, he went to the parish church
and made a full confession to the Rev.
Father Sorin.
The latter at first advised him to re
turn the goo Is to Mr. Cochenthaler, but
on beiug informed that that person had
been recouped by the Guarantee Com
pany, he decided, so Kiernan says, that
the goods must be sold and the proceeds
devoted to charity. According to the
prisoner's story, he then took the goods
to Rev. Father Sorin, who raffled them
at various times, devoting the proceeds
to several schemes connected with the
church.
Now the Guarantee Company wants its
money back, and has instructed Messrs.
Greenshield A Greenshield to take ac
tion, and the latter have written to the
Rev. Father Sorin demanding f27(iO, in
timalinc that otherwise suit will be
brought for recovery. The Rev. Father
has lxen given one week in which to de
cide upon his course.
Aa Old Settler.
When the rheumatism first pre-empts
certain tracts of your anatomy it may be
ousted easily, but when it becomes an
old settler it is pretty hard to budge.
Remember this when you experience the
first twinges of this olistinate and
agonizing disease, and attack it with
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. It will
then "make tracks," and possibly leave
you unmolested and in peaceable posses
sion of your own comfort in the future.
Perils always attend rheumatism, if it
become chronic, on account of its tenden
cy to attack the heart. Usually it is coin'
plicated with kidney trouble. Certain it
is that the kidneys, when aroused by the
Bitters, will eliminate impurities which
give rise to rheumatism and dropsy. In
inclement or wet conditions of the weatb
er, the Bitters, taken in advance, will of
ten avert rheumatic trouble. Use this
genial family medicine for dyspepsia.
biliousness, headache and constipation.
Shoeing Oxen.
A Chester county paper speaks of the
shoeing of a yoke of oxen in Westchest
er, and Rays it is an unusual proceeding
in that county. This is no doubt true at
the present time; but it was a common
practice in some portions of Chester coun
ly nan a century ago. l ne writer or tins
assisted in shoeing oxen frequently in
the summer of ISVi, at Townsend's mill,
a place between Jennerville and Cat ham.
where the blacksiuithing business was
carried on by Samuel Townsend. He was
an expert at tbe business and did a great
deal of it. There was a large limestone
quarry in the tieighWrbood where oxen
were used for hauling and they had to be
shod to keep their feet from getting sore.
The account of the shoeing at West
Chester says: It requires sixteen shoes
to completely shoe a pair of oxen, and
these shoes are all of a pecular shape
suited to their cloven feet. A set of shoes
will usually wear aliout five months.
Sometimes it is very troublesome to shoe
cattle, but these were fairly quiet.
and the sixteen shoes were made and put
on in aliout three hours. The cost of
shoeing a pair of oxen isfs. The price
used to be f 10.
A War-Time Mascot.
Knoxvillk, Tenn.. Feb. 14. When
Knoxville was besieged during the war
a gander was a pet of one of the regiments
in Burnsides' command and was called
the troops' mascot. The gander was
taken by William Moore, and ever since
the war it had lived on his farm in Cooke
county.
The old gander died a few days ago at
the age of 42 years, and its body was
shipped to this city in a box for burial in
the National cemetery. Some of tbe old
soldiers were at the depot to-night to re
ceive the box, and with them was Will
iam Mclntyre, a colored servant who
had been with the regiment Mclntyre
played on bis violin "Marching Through
Georgia" when the box was carried out,
and a few minutes later be dropped dead.

Here of the Tamos s Battle of tie Tain
Shoots Himself.
New York, Feb. 11. Captain. Philo
Norton McGiffln, the young American
naval officer who won distinction in the
late Chinese-Japanese war, committed
suicide by shooting himself in the head
at the Post Graduate Hospital early this
morning.
Captain McGiftln bad been at the hos
pital about a month, under treatment for
nervous prostration. He was kept con
fined to his room most of the time. He
retired at 10 o'clock last night, and his
attendant, a male nurse named Burnett,
remarked nothing unusual in his patient's
demeanor.
At 2 o'clock this morning Barnett was
startled by a pistol shot. He hastened to
Captain McGifliu's apartment, and found
his patient sitting bolstered up in tbe bod
blood streaming from a bullet hole in tbe
right side of the bead, about two inches
alxive the ear. A large navy revolvor lay
on the floor besido tbe bed. Death had
been instantaneous.
Tho nurso, Barnett, was exercised as to
how his patient could have gained pos
session of a pistol and cartridges. He
and the house physician held a confer
ence upon this question, and their agita
tion was enhanced by tbe discovery of
another revolver in the Captain's room.
fully loaded with tho exception of one
chamler.
The pistols, together with a hastily pen
ciled note left by the Captain, were taken
charge of by the Coroner.
The note left, by the suicide was neither
dated nor addressed, and read as follows:
"Memo. Look alive that tho ltoil is not
set on fire by my first shot. My compli
ments and adieus to all. I regret that my
destination must remain to you unknown
but you may guess. With apologies to
Miss Phelps for the row it is a way that
all gnus have. Au revoir. Pleas give
my good-byes to Mr. Gorham and my
compliments to Mr. Bennett. Incident
ally, I may note that though I effect my
exit, it is not the hegira anticipated by
the learned staff. "p. jr. m."
Captain McGiffin was in the service of
the Chinese government before the war
with Japan was begun. He had left this
country's service because there was little
chance for promotion, and be saw in a
war between China and Japan a chance
to earn honor and rank. So he offered
his services and was made "Fightiug
Commander" of the Chen Yun.
The battle of the Yalu was chiefly in
teresting to civilized countries because
itwastbehrst time that modern war
ships had beeu in actual engagement.
The Chen Yuen was one of the few Chi
nese ships that survived the battle. She
was hit more than 400 times, but she was
still able to fight when the Japanese fleet
withdrew. Every man on board of her
had been wounded and many had been
killed.
McGimn bad been wounded many
times, bis most serious injury coming
from one of his own guns. The ship wa'i
on fire on the port side. The Japs kept
their guns pounding on the part of the
vessel that was burning, so that the men
on board would not be able to put the
fire out.
Captain McGiffin called for volunteers
to face the bullets and shells of the Japs.
None of the seamen would go without an
officer, and the Chinese officers were not
in that line of business.
McGitlin himself stepped into the
breach and led a party of seamen to fight
the fire. They had been at it a little
while when a shell from one of the Japa
nese ships struck the crew of one of the
Chen Yueu's big guns and killed the gun
crew, but did not damage the gun. Tbe
next man who took command ofthat gun
did not know that McGiflin and his men
were working at the fire, and be had the
gun swung around to port. A moment
before it was fired Captain McGiffin saw
its muzzle pointing almost at the men at
work. He leaped back. The gun went
off. Most of the men at work on the fire
were killed by the shock, and tbe fire
and smoke that belched out. McGiffin
was knocked down. His hair and eye
brows were burned off. The sight of one
eye was almost destroyed, and both car
drums were fractured. Tbe moment he
rex-overed from the shock be was up and
fighting again.
Ten minutes later a shell struck a lad
der near him, and a splinter of the ladder
was driven deep into his hip. He probed
for it with a pair of pincers, and got it out
and went on fighting. Later h e was shot
in tbe head and in a dozen or more pla
ces in the body; but be kept on fighting
until tbe lattle ended. -

bered with long leaf pine, interspersed
with palmetto and deciduous treea in

Bprings and lakes. Lakes with clear.
Randy hottonis and pure water, and so
thickly interspersed as to give the name
