EX-GOVERNOR ROBERT E. PATTISON 4a likelj to be the Democratic candidate for Governor next year. President McKixlev will rewire as a gift a turkey weighing twenty-five pound a very good evidence of the prosperity of the country. The official returns of the lai elec tion in Massachusetts show that io the city of Boston alone the Republicans made a net gain of 5,9:13 votes. Having elected a Republican Legis lature which will elect a United States Senator, Maryland has developed a large crop of Senatorial candidates. Oklahoma is clamoring for state hood. Oklahoma is a very healthy in fant, but scarcely old enough or large enough to properly wear the dignity which goes with statehood. A uood many editors and correspond ents are engaged in writing President McKinley's message to Congress thefe days, but when the time comes it will be found that the President has a mes sage of his own to Kulnnit The teachers of Somerset county, who will assemble in Somerset next week, will receive much practical ben efit by coming in touch with each other, and hearing the able instructors who have been provided for the Institute Ly County Superintendent Pritts. CrovEKNOK Lloyd Lowndes, of Ma ryland, is an aspirant for the seat in the United States Senate which will be vacated by Senator Gorman on the 4th of next March. Senator Wellington is managing the Governor's campaign and believes he will laud him a winner. The steady march of Kepublicanl-m is shown not only by the increased number of members which that party controls from year to year in the con gressional delegations, but by the pet mauenoeof Republican control in Ma ryland and West Virginia. Maryland has now given a Republican majority in three successive elections 1SW, lSii andlM'7. Retorts fro ji various sections of the country are to ,he effect that the gen eral raius of the past few weeks have len of great benefit to the wheat crop, particularly in the Vet, and that if the fields are covered w' a mantle of snow before damaging f.eezing weather sets in, there need be no fear of a short crop or a dt naged crop next year. A Kansas teacher is in trouble be cause she forbade her scholars to bring onions to achcol with their lunch, de claring a war of extermination against that vociferous vegetable. As onions, though not in the leading social circles of the vegetable kingdom, are consid ered very wholesome by some authori ties, the question of diet for school lunches bids fair to add another prob lem to the already ovtrburdeued Kan sau mind. The splendid work of the Pennsyl vania soldiers on the fields of Chicka tnauga, Missionary Ridge, Orchard Knob and Lookout Mountain during the late war, has received a merited rec ognition in the dedication, last week, of their monuments on the scenes of the memorable struggles. The ceremo ny was made the occasion of the gath ering together of hundreds of veterans, and their reunion on the old battle grounds must have recalled the old war days vividly, and have been au occasion of iu tense en joyment. ' Senator IIax.va has served notice on the Republican Committee of Ohio that he will make no contribution for campaign expeuses until proof of the fallacy of the talk regarding a legisla tive bolt is forthcoming in the form of his re-election. President McKinley is also helping along the Hanna boom by refusing to make any further Ohio ap pointments until the first of Januaiy. Senator Hanna and his friends are con fident that he Mill le reelec'ed, but they will take no chances with the guerillas in Ohio who are doing their level best to knock out the National Chairman. The Auditor General of Pennsylva nia is elected for three years, at a salary of $.",000 a year. He takes his seat on the first Tuesday of May next succeed ing his election, and gives bond to the Commonwealth in the sum of S-'i.OCK). The State Treasurer is elected for two years, at a sulary of f5,0o0 a year. He goes into ofiice on the first Monday of May next succeeding his election, and gives bond in the sum of $-VX),000. The Auditor General and State Treasurer are elected at the same time once in every six years. All the other State ollioers are elected simultaneously, and serve for four vears. Thomas V. Cooper, of Media, Ex Chairman of the Republican State Com mittee, and a careful political observer, thus analyzes the Swallow vote: "The remarkable vote received by the sensational loving Dr. Swallow will not bear any sort of analysis of special discomfort to the Republicans. His lls.000 votes are readily traced. His prohibitory colleague received half as many votes as Swallow, or 4 1,000 above the usual prohibitory vote, lleaooru re ceived 40,000 less than his Republican colleague, McCauley, showing that 40, 000 Republicans voted for Swallow; IV 003 more voted for Thompson, Inde pendent Republican, making 55,000 dis affected Republicans. Swallow's actual Prohibitory vote was 15.0U0, his actual Republican vote was 11.000. hi Demo cratic vote was 58,000. So we can read ily see how this vote was manufactured. There was Democratic disgust at the Reading convention and its Chicago platform, and there was direction from some quarter to swell the Swallow vote so as to help the Democratic party n-xt year. Returns like these are just a lit tle thin, out not thick enough for a Re publican revolution next year or any other year. The Chicago Record, in an article on the foreign market for American pork says: "The fact that while the Ameri can fanners and hog raiders ship to the British market an immense proportion of the bacon consumed there they get the lowest market prices for it, has giv en Secretary Wilsoa occasion for com ing out with a few suggestions to which the agriculturist of this country would do well to pay attention. Mr. Wilson is convinced that the low price paid j for the American product Is not the re sult of dierimination by the British buyer. The simple fact is that the con sumer ic Great Britain pays more for the Canadian and the Danish bacon because, according to his taste, the Can adian and Danish products are superior. American bacon brings only Gj cents a pound in England, while the product of the two competing countries brings from ll to 14 cents. Thus while the United Slates raiser ships more than half of the bacon imported into Great Britain, the amount received for it is only about equal to the sum paid to the Canadian or Danish farmer. A merican bacon, according to the English idea, Is too fat; hence the competing baoon producers, who raise a leaner article, get the best term? i a the market. Were the American farmer to change his methods of fattening hogs he might have the same prices. There is a point here which farmers would do well to heed. It will pa them to study their market and the tat4of their custom ers. As Secretary Wilson puts it, they must learn 'how to keep hotel. Appa rently there is no reason why they may not command'just as good prices as their competitors if they will only take the pains to ascertain their customers' tastes and cater to them. This applies to all kinds of products as well as to bacon. If the American farmer would profit by an expanded foreign market and better prices let him learn what foreign consumers desire, and then offer them just what they wauL" KES WHO 2TT5 OK 'WATER. A S.racga Trib of Indians Found is Lower California. Oct of the strangest peoples of the world, a triba of mystical persons, was re (uirted by United Slates Consul Hugh Ing, at N'ogaltM, Mexico, to the state de partment. It is the triue which inhabits Tiburon Islands, in tbeOulf of California, and which rece.ut.ly slew Capluin Porter, who fought from his boat while dying. The Consul says the Island of Tiburon is one of tbt largest and most pictur esque iu the tiult' of California, and is peopled by the Soris Indians who are noted for their large size and extraordin ary athletics ou land and water. Those who have witnessed their aquatic sports at a respectful distance declare that many of them actually walk and run upon the water with no other assiitiiiice than broad rawhide shoes. They are, writes the Consul, expert fi-herinen and huntsmen, having rigid ideas as to the in iiutetiitiiee of game pre serves on tuir island and limiting the killing of game under severe penalties. They destroy all children in infaucy that are malformed or appear to be lack ing iu intelligent. "In this way the stan dard of physical and mental conditions in both sexes is kept very high. It is currently believed that at onetime the native women were exterminated to make room for a whiter and superior race of women. The uqcleus of this race of higher women was formed from cap tives made at various times, extending over a series of years, on land and water. They have no schools bat eaeh home has a system of physical training. The native guard their shores day and night, and no uiac is allowed to penetrate the Island, even if he should make a land ing. It is said that no epidemics have ever prevailed on the Island and disease is scarcely known amonglhisextraordinary paople, so that the men and women are magnificent iu their physic! endow ment. No man or w oman is allowed to live beyond the agj of 7i) years .- m itter hovr well preserved in body and mind. By careful selection a lara pereantags of the women have a transparent peichy complexion and deep auburn hair. Beveried the Usual Order, The usual order of things is reversed in a suit recently begun iu Carrollton for breach of promise to marry. The plain tiff is John Sells a w ell-to-do farmer, and the defendant is Mrs. Mellugh. A little more than a year ag John Mcllugh, a st4w-k buyer, was killed on the Wheeling .V Like Erie Railroad at Uwerstown, leaving a buxom widow, a fertile farm and a gKd claim agiiust the railroad company. The latter was vigorously prosecuted until a settlement on a 1"K basis was made. Personal charms and dmirable proerty brought many middle-aged swains of the neighborhood to console comfort and woo the widow. John Sells seemed to be the favored one, and his petition filed to-day finished the story. In it he tlleges that he and Mrs. Mellugli were betrothed, and lhi November Hlh was set for the nuptials. He further alleges that Mrs. M.-IIagu was very active ia the ante-nur.iial plan ning, herself engaging the Minister and acoimpanying the prope;:'.; ve groom wheu he bought his wedding fruit, J -isl two days before the date of the pro posed wedding Mrs. Melljgh in irrie 1 William Mcllugh, a brother of her first ItJoband, and sent Sells a n te siyia? that "under tit ? circumsUnse sh could not mirry hiiu.

Miss Mary Jarrtt, agd 21, the attractive daughter of Ja:n Jarrett, a wealthy cit izen, was arrestel to-day, charged with being an accomplice in the murder and robbery of Liz was Vinson at Cattlesburg, Ky., two years ag. One detective play ed the part of a lover, and he alleges that after a year of ciurtsh:p he obtained a statement from her. According to the deteotive. tut told him thsl o:i the night of May 25, 1SJ", she lured Vinson to a secluded spton the bank of the Ohio River, wet of Catletts burg, where they were met by two men, Justus and Martin. The men killed Vin ton and tok his money aud then took the body in a closed cirriage to the Big Sandy River Railroad bridge, four miles away, and threw it over with the purpose of making it appear that a train had kill ed him. Voters Vast Bcsa Esglish. Cheyense, Wyo., Nov. 21. The Wyo ming Supreme court to-iay rendered a decision in the Carbon county election case sustaining the contention of the plaintiffs who were candidates for county attorney, treasurer and commissioner on the Democratic ticket. The court decided tint foreign-born citizens uiust be requir ed to read the Constitution in the English language in order to vote. There were llj Finns who voted the Republican tick et, but could not read the constitution in Euglish. Their votes were accepted, as they could read it in their own language. The decision will put the Democratic can didates in office. A Profitable lople Crop. M artttvsrcro, W. Va., Nov. 21. John Miller, of the vicinity of Guardstown, this county, will realize about f!5,)0 ia rouud numbers from his apple orchard this year, when he disposes of his entire crop. He has just completed the delivtry of OXO barrels sold at t2.i2 per barrel, amounting to th grots sum of fU,iM. Tbexe were raised a pot, thirty four acres of laud purchased by Mr. Miller twenty years ago at an acre. Mr. Miller bUj netted about IOn) on his peaches. Hi father Win. S. Miller who had a finer quality of apples, disposed of his entire crop, aggregating about 3,0 barrels at t-X a barreL Each of them is now planting a hundred acres more in fruit tree. BtUtvt Tft lad ef At World it Mew. BEi.LEFO.fTF, November 20.-A peculiar story mimes from the southern part of the county which seema almost Incredible, but it is vouched for as correct io detail. It is of a belief prevalent there that the world will eutiie to an end on December 12, and so strong is the Itelief among a cer tain class that fanners who inherit the same have left their corn standing in shock, and much of their other work on done, iu the belief that it will not be need ed by them or any one ele. Just who is the prophet after whose predictions these deluded people are following cannot be learned. Twenty years ago in the same commun ity there werescoresof converts to Mother ShiptJii's prophecies that the world would ome to an end in 173, and at that time a man by the name of Miller was so confi dent that the prophecy would be fulfilled that he made all preparations for the mo mentous event. The subject was ever his talk, and he won many converts to the belief. Farm? were then abandoned and work that should have been done left on dji), and when the expected day drew nigh the people gathered together in groups and prayed and preached to each othe. But the lime passed and the world went on. M'Uer, however, did not lose bis faith that the time would eventually ooaie, and many time preaehed his doc trine. Other9 have taken up the delusion and now the date has been set for Decem ber 12. Almost without exception the believers in this strange prophecy are non-chorch mem ters, and soout the idea of predesti nationism. And yet many of them are intelligent and well read, being able to discuss any topic and can quote scripture with the best of theologians. And still moi 3 strange is the fact that they base the Jaims of their belief on facts found in the Bible, aud produce texts to prove the theory. At this time there are evening gatherings at the hem cm of the different lelievers where the one topic of conver sation is the coming destruction of the world and in making spiritual prepara tion for that event by p.-ying and praise service. All wordly subjects are treated with indifference, even to the stranger w ho may happen to come among them at such a time. $5.00 Bcward.

San Fkaxcisco, Cab, Nov. 19. While on a recent voyage from Eden to Syduey the Ilia war ra Company's steamer Kamu raka, one of the ttest-known vessels on the Australian coast ; struck upon a rock about 1.V) yards from shore at midnight. The passengers were ail in their berths at the time, but fortunately the sea was calm, and all were rescued by meaus of a traveling cage. In the absence of rockets lines were taken ashore by several pigs which swam when thrown overboard, with signal halyards attached to their hind legs. The vessel was a total loss. It often happens that the doctor is out of town when most needed. The two-year-old daughter of J. V. Sehenck, of Caddo, iud. Ter., was threatened with croup, he writes: "My wife insisted that I go for the doctor at once ; but as he was out of town, I purchased a bottle of Chamber lain's Cough Ueinsdy, which relieved the child immediately." A bottle of that rem edy iu the house will often save the ex pense of a doctor's bill, besides the anx iety always occasioned by serious siek ness. When it is given as soon as the croupy cough appears it will prevent the attack. Thousands of mothers always keep it iu their homes. The 2o and 50 cent bottles for sale by all druggists. An Iaaoeect Kan Lynched. "An innocent man was hanged by lynchers at Williainsport," was the start ling statement made Monday by Chief Justice Corliss of the North Dakota State supreme court. 'I have ample documentary evidence to the statement," continued the Judge. "Xbe supreme cum orderol a new trial in Coudot's case, because it appeared that he was convicted on the uncorroborated evideuce of (lolytrack and Ireland, both of whom confessed to taking part in the murder of the Spicer family, and wboee sfuetnents were refuted by the strongest testimony given by Dr. Ross the resident agency physician at Standing Hock. Dr. Bms's veracity is unquestioned, and bis testimony is supported by notes from his memorandum book. Another fw-t is that Holytrack aud Ireland made two other previ us conlessions, in neither of which did they implicate Coud't. Holytrack and Ireland were sure to have expiated their crime on the gallows, as there was no question of their guilt, but the mob made no distinction, and hanged the in nocent with the guilty. The lynching of Coudot is a foul crime and a blot on the fair name of the Suite, and his murderers should not go unpunished." TBY GB1I5-0 ! TBT GEAI5-0 !

Tor era, Ka.. Nov. 21 Miss Elmba McCoy, a teacher in the Clay Street school, sent three oupila home to have their breath deodorized, and announced thereafter no pupil who bad eaten onions would le permitted to remain in the room. Mauy and indignant protests were filed, but Miss McCoy was upheld by her princi pal. Prof. McCli'itock,- and the edict stood.
