Skxatk Hoak, of MassachasetU1, has declined the appointment of Atu bawador to EnglaDd, recently tendered liina by President McKiuley.

Ocr three new battle ships ill be as fast as the swiftest in the world. Our navy will be glad to be pitted agaiuht nothing that can laugh at us as it runs away. The Republican majority in Maine will stand at about 24,000. Ulaine's in 1SS1 was 20,000, and he was certainly popular in his own State. B it the Iarty has kept on growing. Some of the Democratic papers say it was sheer luck that won in the recent vrxr. Kvea Uiat is better than to be mixed up with a pirty that is neither capable nor lucky. When" a foreign official wishes to cause dismay to his opponents he threatens to resigu his offic. Rut how this threat can frighten is a mystery from the American onset-holder's point ti view. The Republican administration is a year and a half old and the gold reserve in the United titates Treasury is over 5240,000,000. Bound money, good gov ernment, proeperity and Republican ism have strong affinities. The difieretice between theory and practice has been well illustrated by those who stayed at home and talked about how things should have been done at the front, and those who went to the front and worked without giving advice to their superiors. If Siaix had only stopped to think that there are in this country 243,ii:i public Bt-hoolhouses and 14,405,37;) chil dren in the public schools, she would have chosen some other antagonist. The difieretice in the men behind the guns began in the school rooms. Is the interest of party harmony District Attorney Graham, of Philadel phia, has reconsidered bis determina tion to run for a seventh term, and an nounces his withdrawal as a candidate, A little of this kind of spirit of har mony injected into the Twentieth Dis trict Congressional Conference would put an -end to the present unseemly deadlock. The September State elections have betn held, with the usual results. In Vermout the Republican plurality was alKHit 24,200; larger than at any previous election in any other than a presiden tial year, except in IsiU, when it was 2,52l. 1 Arkansas the Domocrata curried the State by n r.-duced minor ity. This, howvr, indicates nothing except that the Democratic machine thought it unnecessary to return a larger majority. In Maine nothing was doue except to n initiate the can didates and bold the election; no can vass by either party having been made. At the election the vote w light, with a Republican majority of about th usual percentage. Why does the pure, holy Pennsylva nia Democracy debase itself by mani-f.-sliog a hungering willingness to con sort with as many of the dreadfully wicked Republicans as it can persuade to permit it to do so? What does it ex pect to gain by teHing the It-publican voters of Pennsylvania that they are a most rottenly corrupt aggregation from top to bottom, but that by voticg for free silver, free trade and free office ( for the Iemocracy ), tliey may become pure as the driven snow? Da they re ally fancy that they can win votes by practica'ly telling every Pennsylvania He-publican that in comparison with him the ordinary horse-thief is a gen tleirian? Pittsburgh Commercial (Jaw-tie. The Republican Congressional Con ference for this district is again in ses sion at Johnstown, having re-con vrnd i n that city yesterday. Fortunately, if we are to have a regularly-nominated candidate at all, the nomination can not be longer delayed than next Tues day, as the 27th is the last day on which certificates of nomination cn be filed. The several candidates seem to be as far apart as when the Confer ence first met, over a month ago, and the little flirting that has been indulged iu by a change of votes on several bal lots doe not in the least indicate that any of the four candidates can seriously commaad more than three vote at any twins. The Herald still entertains the tope that a nomination will be made l.cfjre the tiuie-limit expires. The gold in the treasury and in the country at large is piling to unprece dented flgfres, farm product bring high prices, business is better than it Las been at any previous time in seven or eight years, and the country la pros perous and happy. This is what the people get for putting the Republican party in power. Of course, part of the big stock of gold in the treasury is due to the war loan, and is, therefore, bor rowed money. But the amount of gold in the country at large is greater than ever before, and this U not borrowed. Nor it there anything fictitious alout the busiiN-ss a tlvity and the general prosperity. No tune person supposes that we would have this prosperity now if the election two years ago had gone the other way. The people did a grand day's work on November 3, 1, when they smashed Bryanism. Almost without exception the Re publican newspapers of the so-called Warren district stamp the combine ru mor that the State organization had entered into a deal through which Con gressman Charle9 W. Stone is to be de feated in his campaign for re-election as false in every detail, says the Phila delphia Inquirer. The Kane Republi can declares that "no intelligent man would for a moment think of crediting Senator Quay or his friends with an at tempt to cut down the Republican vote iu the House," and it fails to find any evidence of such a deal. "We have no hesitation in saying," it adds, "that the fears so far as this section of the coun try is concerned are groundless." The Warren papers add testimony to the same effect, and so do others published in the district Thus collapses another canard. Mr. Stone's only danger lies in the magnitude of the Sibley barrel, over which the State organization has no control, and we haven't the slight est notiou that he stands in any great danger eveu from that. Shaky ia Their Hiiiory. Cleveland lender. Conspicuous newspapers in the United States continue to discuss with amusing gravity and confidence the ridiculous question whether th remains of Colum bus ought to be taken hack to Spain or lea in the cathedral of Havana. The New York Tribune is one of the latest papers to treat this subject at length, and the Chicago Tribune copies its whole article, as ionocent as its author of any suspicion that the ashes of Columbus were moved to his native city, Genoa, eleven years ago. As to this interesting matter error has gnined so long a Mart that truth can hardly catch up iu years, but the whole discussion must be very amusing to well informed Italians who hear of it. Their country's claim to its famous son was rec ognized by Spain in 137, and an Italian warship carried his earthly remaius to Genoa in that year. Americans ought to know the truth about the last resting place of the discoverer of America, but how shall they learn when prominent newspapers go on industriously spread ing abroad misinformation? Would Lit to bt Hanged. Atlanta, Ga., September 17. A man who signs himself "Bill Williams' writes Governor Atkinson and asks that he be ordered hanged.

The volcano of Vesuvius is now pre senting the grandest spectacle since lS"i due to a violent outburst of activity. The central crater aiul a umntier of new mouth are vomiting lava and ashes. Three imposing streams are Cowing down the mountain's side, burning the chestnut woods at the base of Monte Sum ma, nearly reaching the observatory, des troying part of the Funicular Railroad leading thereto, and threatening the bar racks of the Carabineers. PEACE PLANS PERFECTED. Commiiiioneri Iattrncted at a Special Cabinet Meeting. Wasuisotos, Sept. li The State de partment to-night gave out the following statement concerning the discussion be tween the memiiers of the Cabinet and the Peace commission to-day: The members of the Peace commission with the exception of Senator Gray, whose absence was due to his inability to withdraw as counsel in a case in which he was engaged some time before his ap pointment as one of the Peace commis sioners, have spent the greater part of yesterday aud to-day in a free discussion of the duties with the discharge of which tbey have been entrusted by the Presi dent. Senator Gray is expected during the evening, and before sailing will have a full conference with the President and his associates. "While, for obvious reasons, it was de termined that the nature of the instruc tions as to the negotiations about to be eutered upon should, for the present, be kept secret, and made known only after definite results shall have been reached. it is possible to state authoritatively that the commission goes to Paris fully pre pared to follow a course of action mapped out for it as the result of the consulta tions of the last two days. "At the very outset it will be made clear to the Spanish commissioners that as in the etse of the preliminary protocol, their can be no deviation from or modi fication of the demands made by the United States. "The decision arrived at by the Presi dent, after a full consultation with the mem hers of the commission, subsequent ly received the cordial and unanimous approval of the Cabinet at a meeting held this afternoon." The Cabinet was in rpecial session an hour this afternoon, with all members present except Secrtary Alger, wbois not in the city. After the meeting all saij that they had agreed to say nothing more of the result of the deliberations than that the peace commissioners had bseo fully instructed. To reveal the na ture of these instructions would be ex tremely i in politic, and would amount to arming the Spanish commissioners in advance. The peace commissioners made a similar response. Captain Caproa Dead. Washix.jtos, Sept. IS Capt. Allyn Capron, First artillery, died at his home near Fort Myer, Va., to-day. CapL Cap ron was one of the best-known officers in the regular army. He had devoted him self particularly to the artillery branch of Ih service, having been an honor graduate of the artillery school in 1873 anil was regarded as an authority on ar tillery tactics. When General Shatter's corps went to Santiago Captain Capron accompanied it and his battery did nota bly fine work in the battle of Santiago. During the first day's fighting before the city. Captain Capron' son. Captain Allyn K. Capron of the Roucrh Riders, was killed. The death of his son preyed upon his father's mind, but be never swerved for an instant from hia duty during the terrible days that followed. Xiria Tereia Saved. Washixotox, SapUmber 17. Captain Crownlnshield, who was to-day acting as Secretary of the Navy, received a cable gram from Commodore Watson, at Guan Unamo, stating that the wreckers have recovered 10 6 inch gnca from the Span ish flagship Maria Teresa and placed them on tue collier Leon Idas. The Com modore says that it is expected the Span ish sh Ip ill be floated next Monday, and be will start nr home on Taesdiiy to take command at the Mare Uland navy yard, Items of Interest. Itlack birds have become an intolerable nuisance in Hollidayburg and Gaysport, where they roost by the thousands in the large shade trees. Some of the citizens are abooting into Mocks, trying to frighten theui but the little fellows are hard to chase away. A few days ago the people of Philadel phia witnessed the sale of one of their historic buildings. Assembly Hall. It was built just one hundred years ago, aud was used for the entertainment ot illus trious people, Washington, Franklin and Presidents aud statesmen down until a ft w years ago. According lo the agree ment this building was used for social attaint for one hundred years and then sJd. The sale took place one hundred years from the date of the agreement. The following method has been recom mended for keeping butter sweet and firm: Make the butter into rolls and wrap In pieces of muslin. Make your brine in the following manner: Put enough salt in six quarts of water to cause an egg to float in it ; add two tableepoousfuls of granulated sugar and half a teaspoonful of saltpeter. Let the brine come to a boil, and when cold strain Hover the butter. The brine should more than cover the butler, which should be weighted suffi ciently to keep the rolls beneath the sur face and exclude the air. Io a recent decision of Judge Clayton be said that the owner of real estate ala owns the sidewalks in frout of hia prop erty, subject to right of pedestrians to use them in traveling, but outside of this be rwns tbem as much as any other part of his property and they cannot be used for any other purpose without his consent. Should the owner allow them to become dilapidated so that they may cause any one to fall and suffer an injury, he can be prosecuted for such negligence and will have to pay damages. In the common pleas of Lackawanna county, last week, Judge Edwards de cided that "The reading of the holy scriptures, in either version, as a part of the opening exercises in our public schools, does not violate any constitution al provision. It is not in contravention of Article L section 3, nor of Article X, section 2." The case was one in which an injunction was sought against the reading of the Bible as part of the open ing exercise of the public school at Waverly, on the ground that it was an interference with the rights of conscience, and gave the school a sectarian charac ter, forbidden by the constitutional pro visions referred to. Under this decision, therefore, the Bible may lawfully be reid as a school exercise, Austin S. Baird and Miss Lizzie Weav er, of near Smithton, Westmoreland ounty, went to Cumberland, Md., on Thursday to get married. They were nabbed by a backtnan, who, after leav ing the young lady at a hotel, went with Baird to get the license, Ou the way to the court house the hackman induced Baird to take a drink, and the groom re turned to the hotel in a dazed condition, with but three cents in his pocket, and the minister refused to perform the mar riage ceremony. The couple went to the railroad station and there Baird became unconscious and would have died but for the kinduess of two physicians, who worked with him for several hours. The young lady, though loath to leave her intended, was induced to go to the hotel or the night. Baird had when he reached Cumberland. The doctors say he was drugged. A man supposed to be from Johnstown is lying in a critical condition at the hos pital. He is partially unconscious and his stories about himself afford little light as to hi family or his place of residence. While walking along the B. A O. track at Garrett, Somerset county, last Thurs day evening, he was struck by a train, and burled several feet. He was brought to the hospital on a train and there it was found he suffered from concussion of the brain. Both arm are broken at the elbows aud be is badly bruised and battered. Ilia condition' is critical. In bis pocket was found a bank book with a number of deposit records in the Johns town Savings Bank. The last deposit was one of $3, made June th. As the bauk book bore the name of "Andrew Muman," it is supposed that is the man's name. He is about 40 years old and ap pears to be of Oerman' descent. Con nellsville Courier. . Rev. J. A. Maxwell, of the First Bap tist Church, of McKeesport, in a recent sermon, made the following timely re marks in regard to the modern funeral : The modern funeral is not Christian. Christianity does not make ostentation over a dead body. It does not enshroud death with such gloom. .People who can afford it have set such a . pace of extrava gance in the burial of their dead that it breaks an ordinary man up when he has a loved one dead to conform to funeral cus toms. It is no good to the dead, but an in- mense injury to the. living. The ordina ry funeral sermon retlf ctf no great credit to Christianity. Usually it is a desperate effort to erect a post-mortem character upon a frequently shaky ante m rtem foundation. If funeral sermons are preached, let them be preached to the living If a man has been a good man he does not need an obituary orator. If he has been a bad man he ought not to have one. The wearing of symbols of mourning is not consonant with the hope of a Christian. A true Christian cannot at any time be in mourning over the providences of God or anything that comes to bis life.

Insurance at cost by having only one paid o til car, the secretary. The reports of the Insurance Commissioner of Pennsylvania show that well-managed Mutual Fire Insurance Companies affjrJ insurance at less than one-half the cost of Stock Companies. There are no less than two hundred Mutual Fire Insurance Companies in this State, many of them in business from twenty-five to fifty years. Our Insurance Commissioner, James II. Lambert, in his last report, saya:"The system of Mutual Fire Insurance has been of very great advantage when prop erly managed and in reasonable compli ance with the law. The reports for years show that the honestly managed Mutual Companies afford the best class of pro tection at the least possible cost." We aim to remove existing prejudices against Mutual Fire Insurance by these deduc tions from the Insurance Commissioner's report, and tnat our home company may receive the encouragement that an enter prise of this kind deserves. Our business men hare been agitating a move for cheaper insurance. They have an oppor tunity to place part of their insurance with this company.

The Congressional conference at Johns town adjourned last week again without making a nomination. We have the same men repealing the folly of last year, without reason or justification. If the principals can not agree lo the nom ination of some one, they should release their ouferrees from absolute personal allegiance and allow them the liberty to make the beat nomination tbey nan. It is injurious to the candidates and to the party to have the nomination delayed aa it has been. If the candidates will not allow their couferreea to settle the ques tion according to their best judgment then the conforreee would do well to re fuse to be any longer parties to prolong ing an injurious and demoralizing dead lock. Their refusal wo-'ld be a patriotic service under the circumstances. We hope when they meet again on the 3th they will do promptly what they ought to have done long ago. There was no neM for State Chairman Elkin to deny the yarn published by the Philadlephia Press to the effect that the State committee wanted Congressman Charles W. Stone defeated for Congress in the Twenty -seventh District Chair man Elkin added: "The State committee is working bard for the election of every regularly nominated Republican candi date from Governor to County Auditor." It would be well for the Press if it could say as much for its own course. A Great Zoological Garden. The Zoological Society of New York propose to construct what will probably be the fiuest soological garden in the world in Bronx Park, N'ew York, and under the direction of the executiveoom uittee the plans are being fully elabora ted. The society expects to open the gar den to the public in a satisfactory way on May 1, 1893. While the work is progress ing with all due rapidity and zeal, the old and well approved plan of relieving bil iousness and constipation through the be neficent agency of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters finds general recognition. Tbia excellent family medicine is a safeguard against malaria and rheumatism, and re moves indigestion and nervousness. It invigorates the system through the medi um of improved digestion and appetite, fortifies it against disease, and counter acts the effects of overwork, mental or physical. A wioeglassful before retiring engenders health-yielding and strength giving sleep. Iet it have the persistent and systematic trial that it deserves. The Maine Viotory. A study of the Republican pluralities in Mane during the past thirty years is interesting at this time when the Demo crats are attempting to create the impres sion that the recent victory was not suf ficiently big to be regarded as an endorse ment of the Administration. But the facts and figure plainly show the empti ness of this assertion : Year. Plurality. Thus it will be observed the plurality of 25,000 has been exeeeded but once since 1870, and if the Democrats can derive any satisfaction from this fact they may have it and welcome.

In the year 1900 the regular decennial census will be taken oy theUnited StaUs. According to the census of 1800 Bedford county had 38,624 of a population. The Constitution of Pennsylvania guarantees to every eocnty having a population of 40,000 persons a President Judge. The new census will without doubt give Bed ford eonnty a population of 40,000 and thus entitle the county to a President Judge. Somerset county's population is 1,000 lets than Bedford county's but her gain in the past ten years has been greater than Bedford's, so that Somerset, too, will have a population sufficient to give her a President Judge. Under the Constitu tion where a county has a President Judge of itself the Associate Judges are abolished. This means that the next As sociate Judge of Bedford county after the one elected this fall, will be the last who will ever sit on the bench of Bedford county. Everett Press. Bendy to Baoeive Orders.

The reputation of lh.- well-known spe cialists, Drs. Sadler and Sigtnann, 804 Penn Ave., Pittsburg, Pa., is too well es tablished to neeu much comment. The thousands of deaf and blind people who have been restored to hearing and sight by these mt eminent surgeons, are by far the be t recommendation of their merits. To the long list of marvelous operations which have been performed in tb'ir offices, a new one is added through the case of Mr. Massey, 107 Third Street, S. 8., Pittsburg Pa." His right eye-ball was pierced by a piece of Steel in February last. The wound healed after a protract ed and painful period of recovery, but the vision was totally gone, which was partial ly due to a cataract which developed in the injured eye; partially also to inflam mation of the tender inside structures covering the pupil with an impenetrable membrane. Dr. Sigm inn, to whom Mr. Massey entrusted his case, performed a so-called Iridectomy (making an artificial pupil), removed the cataract, and now, eight weeks after the operation, Mr. Massey is a hsppy man. Ha sees (with glasses) even sin Ul objects at a long distance and can read coarse print. Indeed, a triumph of modern surgery. Tor Bent. Store room in basement of First Na tional Bank building.
