can meeting at the Academy cf Music
at hifh Governor Daniel H. Hastings
was the principal speaker was the
event of last week. It marked the re
vival of stalwartisrn. The sort of Re
publicans who ntMd by Grant In '7;.
who had stood by Lincoln, and who
stood by Blaine, were brought to re
alize that the same old agencies were
making another endeavor to bring tri
umph to the Democratic party by
vicious and unscrupulous personal as
saults on Senator Quay and those who
are known to be his friends.
When Governor Hastings appeared
he was srrwted with an ovation, and
t-poke in part as follows:
"One of the candidates for governor
in February last year charged In a
religious newspaper, of which he was
editor, that new metal furnishing
have been paid for by the Mate, but
old ones In use by the state carried into
the Ft ale house cellar, cleaned and re
turned, were made to personate th
new ones paid for.
" 'That in the purchase of material i.id
lalor for making additions, alterations,
repairs and furnishings, the capitol
buildings, and cellars and grounds, also
for the executive mansion and now for
!race church, the state has lost many
thousands of dollars as the result of an
unfair system of competitive bidding.
In other words, that the cost to th
state has been two, three, four, as high
as eight times, in some instances, as
much as It should have been, and that
not all of this money went to the per
sons famishing the materials and la
bor, and further that at least some of
the board of public grounds and build
ings custodians have guilty knowledge
of this excessive cost.' These charges
if true, should have made it impossible
for me to appear before this audience
ir to hold the office of governor for an
other day.
"Let me tell you what followed the
publication which I have just read to
yon. Its author was Imrr.ediately ar
rested on the charge of criminal libel.
He was taken into the criminal court.
He was tried I y a Jury of his peers
and was convicted. The verdict of the
Jury was 'guilty.' He applied for a new
trial. It was refused, and the trial
judge, in his opinion refusing a new
trial, inter alia, said: The Indictment
alleged that these paragraphs (the
quotations just read) were published of
and concerning the members and su
perintendent of the board of public
grounds ar.d buildings, and that tie
meaning of the paragraphs was to
charge them with knowingly and
corruptly and fraudulently cheating
and defrauding the commonwealth, and
with fraudulently and corruptly mis
using and misappropriating to them-F-lves
and to others the public moneys
f the commonwealth."
-Defendant admitted the publication,
but denied that he intended it to refer
to the Iward or its members, or that
it in fact charges them with the of
fenses alleged in the indietment.
'The burden was of cturse on the
commonwealth to prove that these
paragraphs would be understood by the
public to charge the members and su-IK-rintendent
of the board or some of
them, as alleged in the indictment, and
the jury was instructed that if the
commonwealth failed, in this proof de
fendant could not be convicted. In
view of the verdict we must assume
the jury found with the commonwealth
on these points.
To establish the defense that the
publication had not been maliciously or
malignantly made, defendant testified
at length, giving in detail all the facts
claimed to be within his own knowl
edge, and all the Informatioa that he
had received which led him to make
the publication: and nothing of this
l.lnd. however remote, was excluded.
"Since then the convicted editor has
mercilessly abused the trial Judge, the
jury. tse opposing lawyers and the
rtate. reiterating the same charges. par
ticularly about Grace church. Who
would not commend at bust his misdi
rected energy? His defense must have
Iwcn well prepared. He was indefat
igable. He left no stone unturned. H
was several times at my stable cross
examining my hostler and the cook in
our kitchen to find out svaielhing In
the garbage or the manure pile to In
jure me or my family.
"II. Again this candidate In the same
paper charged That articles have been
furnished for the soldiers orphans'
rchools that cost the state eight fold
more than reliable bidder were will
ing to furnish the same articles for."
"Th soldiers orphans' schools com
mission immediately held a meeting In
the executive chamber, its members
consisting of General Gobin, Senator
Mitchell. Captain William F. Stewart,
Hon. Ira F. Mansfield. Hon. Roltert M.
Foster, Colonel Exra H. Ripple and
Captain George W. Skinner. The mem
bers of the commission at once resolved
to arrest him and the warrant was
served. When he faced the jury his
principal defense was that there was no t he may desire off the maximum fig

"Governor Daniel H. Hastings:
" 'My Dear Sir: The suit against me
on the charge of having libeled the
Commission cf soldiers rrphans' acboola,
gain, my doctor became uneasy. Ke did
something for which I can never thank him
enough.
- He brought me a box of Dr. Vffliams'
Fink Pills ior Pale People and told me
they would do me more good than any
thing he knew oL He had used them with
great success in a case similar to mine.
The case in question was that of L
Philips, of Petersville.
"Li all I took nine boxes of the pills. I
need not go over ray gradual recovery in
detail, but you must imagine my joy
relief when, after two months of helpless
ness, I felt Lie and strength return day by
day to my dead limbs. When I had taken
the ninth box I was completely cured.
"I am hale and hearty to-day, with no
traces of my awful experience, and I give
all the credit to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
for Pale People. They probably saved me
from the grave."
Pit. SUmpson, to give more strength to
his story, made affidavit to its troth before
Abncr Norman, a Notary Public at Rugby.
The power of Dr. Villiams Pink Pills
fx Pale People in the vast number of dis
eases due to impure or poisoned blood or
to derangements of the nervous system, has
beca demonstrated in thousands of in
stances as remarkable as the one related
above. No one whs is suffering can right
fully neglect this way to restore health.
Drueeists everywhere sell Dr. Villiams
Pink Pais for Pale People.
f which yon are a member, rtioold
tever have been brought, as I am now
prepared to demonstrate to the satis
faction of all concerned, including tha
taxpayers of the state.
- "The 60 bill of court expenses. In
cluding the names of witnesses who
were never subpoenaed, should not have
Wen incurred, or at least should not
have been placed on me.
'The bill of expenses, over and
hove $060. and which I was compelled
to incur in my defense. Including my
witnesses, my time, my lawyers' fees
nd incidental expenses, amounting In
, all to S1.250. is a burden I should not
: and will not b compelled to bear un

" 'In view of all the circumstances,
j the commission should, and can well
i afford to. pay both of these bills, ag
gregating $1,910. or less than $175 for
each of the 11 commissioners. This
should be attended to by or before Dec.
L 1W7.
" 'Tours truly.
"S. C. SWALLOW."
"III. The same candidate has charged
repeatedly on the stump and In the
newspapers "that the sum of $8,330.01
was paid for carpenter work on the rose
propagating house, which the state au
thorities admitted was worth, includ-
ing material and labor, not more than
Jl.SK.1
"The rose propagating house referred
tc was built under an act of the leg
islature of the session of 1S95. In which
in the general appropriation bill the
sum of $1.8(i0 was appropriated. The
language used in the act Is as follows:
'For the payment of the erection, con
struction, completion and furnishing of
! a rose propagating house, the sum of
one thousand eight hundred dollars, or
co much thereof as may be necessary."
I'nder this act a house was built, to
gether with all the excavation, mason
ry, carpenter work, glass, iron, paint
Ice and material of every kind, finished
complete for use. for the sum of $1,S(K,
the amount appropriated, built by
Charles H. Miller, who took the bid.
"I have these figures taken from the
record of the auditor general of the
state. The statement, therefore, that
this building cost over Ji.000 is utterly
and unqualifiedly false, and I challenge
any practical builder, who understands
the value of material and labor, to
construct a duplicate of this building
for any smaller sum than was paid for
this rose propagating house by the
board of public buildings and grounds
of the commonwealth, and I also chal
lenge any man to show that the build
ing in question cost more than $l.t00.
"IV. At the trial in the Dauphin coun
ty court, above referred to. the candi
date, in his defense, brought out. of
course, everything he could to Justify
his charges in regard to the fitting out
if Grace church, and inasmuch as he
was found guilty of criminal libel, after
producing all the testimony within his
reach, it is hardly worth the time of
this audience to make any further ref
erence to it. As a matter of fact, the
church was fit: Ml up for the occupanc
.f the legislature in four dfays and
four nights. I took personal charge of
the work myself, and if the Dauphin
county jury had brought In a verdict of
acquittal there might be some ground
on which the defendant might rest his
allegations. It was necessary to fit up
rooms for the senate and house of rep
resentatives. The cellar was utilized
for committee rooms. There were re
quired i.ew boilers, partitions, windows,
electric light, steam heat, plumbing,
retiring rooms, desks, chairs, tables,
carpets and whatever else was neces
sary to make the church habitable by
the legislature, its offioers and em
ployes. Every bidder who had obtain
ed, after competitive bidding, the year
ly contract for furnishing the supplies
to the state government, was summon
ed and directed to do his part of the
work by the following Monday night.
"The fire occurred on Tuesday. The
contractors went to work on Wednes
day, and although the church was not
1 '"Peted. the church was habitable
for the legislature, and the two houses
met on Monday evening, according to
my promise to them. There was a dls.
position among the members of the gen
eral assembly to take a recess of 30
days.
I " I was opposed to the recess, and it
was only w hen I gave thera my person
al word that the building would be
ready for their occupancy on the fol
lowing Monday night, that they acced
ed to my wishes. A deiay of 30 day
would have cost the state, at a conserv
atire estimate, between $20,000 and t.t0.
(00, per ha i. s more than the latter fig
ure. The old Capitol building was com
plttely destroyed by fire. Nothing but
a small amount of furniture was saved.
Mark you. every contractor was re
Miiircd to furnish his material and do
the work, under his contract price for
the year, after tjie competitive bidding
and letting on the previous first of
June. Two sets and sometimes three
wts of workmen worked alternately
through 4 hours of each day. The
desks, chairs, tables, bookcases and pa
ler files comprised a large part of the
expense, amounting to $14.i31.CS. The
lumber used was measured after It was
1'Ut in place, and paid for on that
measurement. I am Informed the de
fendant himself had It measured, at'
l ast he had the opportunity to have it
measured for use in his trial, and still
tke jury found him guilty. Since his
convict km he has been as assiduous in
repeating his charges as he was before.
Th' must convince the people of th
state the kind of regard he has for
laws and courts as after his conviction
he continues to repeat the crime for
which he was convicted.
! "It may be proper for me to ray
that he present law providing for the
purchase of supplies for tbe state gov
ernment is modeled after that In force
i by the Federal government at Wash
ington. Vy our law and the constitu
tion there is a maximum price fixed
for each article, and the commission
fs required to give contracts to the low-
I est responsible bidders, each bidder be
ing required to bid such percentage as
county. Any person desiring to bid on
any articles can apply to the board of
public grounds and bulldirgs through
its representative, who furnishes the
Schedule of maximum prices. He can
make out his bid and hold it until the
day of the letting, which is public, and
in the executive chamber, where all
bids are opened. The contracts are by
law required to be awarded to the low
est responsible bidder, who must fur
nish a bond for tbe faithful perform
ance of his cont ract. All parties hava a
right to Tw prwtit and the awards r
made publicly, and each and every bid
der has the opportunity to see and x
amine the bids of his rivals for the con
tracts. Inasmuch aa the material fur
nished and work done is for the stats
the rivalry for the contracts is always
spirited.
"On last Saturday night In this tall,
and standing on this platform, this
same candidate made the following
charge:
" -in Grace church they bought 146.-'
000 feet of lumber when only G.Ws
feet were used. Those familiar with
their methods say thtt they had the
lumber carried in by the front door,
charged to the state, and thin removed
half of It by a back window, but I do
not vouch for this. But tat 148.009
were charged to the state while the
amount used was SS.000 I do vouch for.
The bills were regularly O. K.. and
would have been paid had we not ar
rested them.'
"The answer to the assertion Is that
It is not true. The state did not buy
146.000 feet of lumber, as alleged: neith
er did the state buy 6.00O feet of lum
ber, as stated by the candidate. It did
buy exactly 115,252 feet of lumber and
paid for It the sum of $2.910 04. The
total cost of the lumber that went into
the church repairing was $2,910.04. and
the totl cost of the planing mill and
carpenter work was $2,382.51, makins
a total cost of the lumber and the labor
upon It of $i,292.5a. Here ire the bill
and the voucher for It over the hand
and seal of the auditor general of the
state.
"Again, this candidate for governor
has declared In his newspaper and on
the stump that the burning of the state
t-apltol building was by design and that
It was done for the purpose of burning
up public documents which might be
used as testimony against certain mem
bers of the Republican party: and that
further, there is convicting evidence of
criminal carelessness and neglect on
the part of the state house custodians."
"The last sentence, quoted from his
newspaper, contains a serious cha.-ge In
no ambiguous terms. After this state
ment he was railed upon to testify be
fore the joint committees of the two
branches of the general assembly on
public grounds and buildings. He was
sworn to tell the truth, and then under
oath he did not in any way, either di
rectly or indirectly, indicate that he
had at any time regarded the building
as having been set on fire by design. He
could give no names of the guilty; he
could furnish no witnesses: he could
give no data: he could do nothing, not
even repeat the assertion made in his
paper, and so at last he declared tinder
oath: 'I have already testified to all
the facts within my personal knowledge
In relation to the capitol building, and
so far as I can recall them. Any furth
er testimony would le hearsay evi
dence, as I have heard nothing from
anyone responsible for the care of the
building burned.' This testimony is
contained In the Legislative Record,
pages 722 and 728 inclusive, and there
Is not a scintilla cf evidence given by
him or anyone else to support his
charge of carelessness or neglect.
"At a later date, in an article pub
lished In the Pennsylvania Methodist,
of Feb. 11, lfcS8. he intimated that the
building was burned in order that val
uable papers and documents relatin?
to the treasury Investigation might be
df-stroyed. When called upon the wit
ness stand he admitted writing the arti
cle and said that when he wrote it h-
had in view a statement which he had
seen In the Philadelphia newspapers
bearing on the subject and averred that
it was made 'on the statement of gen
tlemen who profess to know of what
they were talking." He refused to give
the names of the gentlemen who had
given him the Information, and has not
yet done so, although a year and a half
Las elapsed since the Investigation was
held. Everybody at all familiar with
the facts knows that there was not
record relating to the treasury or any
ether department on file In the building
turned.

charges an awful crime, and m with
holding the evidence, if R exists, com
mits himself a greater crime against
the people. He is constantly repeat
ing the charge, but he steadfastly with
holds the proof of guilt which he avers
he possesses. No citizen need be told
that If he Is telling the truth It Is bis
Fttlemn duty to go to the nearest mag
istrate and make his Information and
furnish the names of the witnesses. If
he fails to do his duty in this regard he
Is worse than an assassin.
"He has latterly in his public ntter
tnces been declaring that he has the
advice of able counsel to the effect that,
under the law. the attorney general Is
the only citizen of the state who has the
power and whose duty it Is to prosecute
those whom he alleges to be guilty, and
he has. Just as often, in his newspaper
and on the stump, called upon the at
torney general to institute proceedings
nf this character.
"I do not know who his attorney Is or
where he gets his advice. The attorney
general has. however, addressed to me
communication on the subject, which
I will now read to you. It is as fol
lows:
"" 'Oflice of the Attorney General,

" 'Daniel H. Hastings. Governor:
" 'Sir It has been charged by one of
the candidates for governor of this

and that under the law the attorney

" The same candidate for governor

be due to you and to the public, aa
s-ell as to myself to say that the can
Ildate referred to has never, directly or
'jirttreetly. mentioned the subject to me,
and. of course, has furnished not a
syllable of evidence to sustain any
charge that he has made: nor has he,
In any of his public utterances, shown
that he possessed any evidence that

to do justice to all and wrong to none.
,o safeguard their lives, their property
and their character, if they want such
a man, this is a very good man for
them to vote for,"
Governor Hastings also took Dr. Swal
low to task for his charges that the
State had beyi paying exorbitant prices
I for its supplies. On this point the gov
ernor said he instructed James Camp
bell, tha factory inspector, to send to
Dr. Swallow's own bookstore in Har
risburg and purchase similar articles
to those used by the state. In every
case it was found that the prices
charged by Dr. Swallow and paid for
by the state were procured at prices
ranging from 10 per cent to 3SS per cent
above the regular prices paid by the
commonwealth. He read a numter of
the figures showing tha comparison of

These were but sample figures of a

The governor closed with a defense
of his administration from criticisms of

to the objectionable bills passed by the
last legislature and which were vetoed
by him.
He said that he had no regrets for
those vetoes and that he would not

Faatea Your Thread.
The reason why some people's sewing
and mending docs not last is that they
do not fasten the ends of the thread
properly or sufficiently. They sew the
last stitch over perhaps once and cnt
the thread off short, whereas tbe stitch
should have two taken over it, then one
across, then tbe needlo run between the
thicknesses of cloth if there be any, and.
if not, a stitch should be taken back, so

Foa at Conundrum Sappers.
A clever woman has invented the
cou ii ii ilro in supper for raising money
for charitaLloends. "It is great fan for
the guests," she says, "and highly re
munerative to tbe philanthropists. " .
Tbe plan is to servo a snpier a la
carte, presenting the bewildered guest
with a menu card written in enigma.
From this bo must order at ruai'an:
eating, of course, what is received un
less he is clever enough to guess some
hidden viand.
Hero is a specimen menu: "Pearl
gatherers. Spring's offering. Confused
aud mixed. Women of grit. Herald of
the dawn. New England specialty.
Wood from a celebrated watering place.
Boston's overthrow. Hidden tears.
Klondike nnggets. ' One who embarked
from tho ark. Fragrant beans from
Arabia. Earth apple salad. Cune fruits."
Of courso tbe guests order Llindly
front the card. All manner of laughable
mistakes and surprises are sure to fol
low, for if a m:w choose "fragrant
beans from Arabia" he will be sure of
a good cup cf coffee at least, but if he
order "spring's offering" a glas3of cold
water only will bo his Jack. "Herald
t f tbe dawn" stands for a bird.
Choose "confused aud mixc-d," you
will receive grnernus diih of pickles.
"Women of grit" will bring forth a
couple of delicious saudwicbes. " Wood
from a celel rated watering jlace,"
w hen simmered down, amounts to "Sar
atoga chips." "Pearl gatherers" stand
for oysters on ice. "Boston's overthrow"
means a cup of tea. "Cano fruits" are
sugar plums. "Klondike nuggets" will
bring different varieties cf ices.- "One
who embarked from the ark" will fur
nish (cold boiled) ham. And these are
bnt a few of the puzzles that ten min
utes' thought will suggest
Each dish is paid for at its regula
tions restaurant value, so that tbe end
of the affair means a goodish little sum
in the hands of the philanthropists, and
yet each guest has received bis money's

Tbe Artful Hodera GirL
"The artfulness of the modern girl, "
remarked a woman wbo was a girl years
ago herself tome, "passeth understand
ing. I have, for example, a youn? kins
woman of 18, whose mother, knowing
that my husband was out of town, in
vited me to ber lios.se to tea one day
Jast week. Tbe girl was so sweet to m
tbat in the end, though I hadn't the
slightest idea of doirjg it when I st(
out, I a.-ked her to come home with me
and stay the night She assented not
too eagerly aud as we walked toward
tbe car together she lives on Capitol
hill she began to talk of young Mr.
Sj-and-so, Ccmmsader So-aud so's son,
who wad so anxious to nioct me. No
woman is too old to be proof against
flattery, so I expressed an interest in
Mr. So-and-so aud told her she might
bring him to see mo some day.
" 'It would le nice if he could come
over this evening, wouldn't it?' sho said
thoughfully. I agreed that it wouh).
" ' You might have sent him a note if
you had known, I said, for at my age
it isn't too often that young men want
to make my acquaintance.
" 'I t(Tl you what' she said, quite as
if the idea bad just occurred to her.
'I'll telepbeno to him and see if be has
r.uy otbtr engagement.'
"We went into tbe nearest drug store,
and idly I followed her to tbe telephone
box, though she called my attention to
something at the other end of the store.
Central gave her the much desired num
ber the young man's brother is a phy
sician. " "Is this Mr. So-and-so?' she asked.
"Pause.
"'It's all right abcol tonight she
said. 'GoodLy.'
"That's all she said. And then and
not till then I realized bow that inno

The "Beloved Ere" Fad.
The latest novelty in love tokens is
tbe "beloved eye." Of course this is
only an imitatiou of the human eye,
but tbe miniature rmrrraita re ninft
, so cxquUitely on ivory tbat the eye of
. tbe beloved one seem to be shown in
J reality.
Tbe painting of tbe eye is a most del

on the part of t be man. Re ts compel lea
not only to draw heavily on his parse,
but opon his time.
After the painting is completed it is
encircled with a setting of precious
stones, as costly as the purw can buy.
Pearls and diamonds form the favorite
setting, tbe connecting links cf gold be
ing invisible. ,
Tbe miniature is then ready to bo
suspended from a rope of pearls or a
.lelioate rbaiu of precious stones. Tbe
miniature must swing low npon tha
corsage, so tbat it may be near the
heart For this reason the bauble is not
fastened on tbe end of tbe chain, but
bangs midway and has a fringe of jew
eled links falling below it
Tbe token cf tbe "beloved eye" is
nndoubtedly frangbt with a bit of
quaint sentiment though prominent
society woman gives tbe reverse side.
With a touch of humor she announces
"that any man who presents a miuia
ture cf his own eye to his swot tbeart
tacitly admits that be jj keeping an eye
upon all overtures extended by his mas

Telling- a Furrier Secret.
"Furs become very much soiled and
need renovation as much as any other
part of a woman's wardrobe," says
Emma M. Hooper in The Ladies' nome
Journal, "but among the many direc
tions given for cleansing and renovating
one seldeni fiuds anything regarding
furs. Furriers keep all such trade secrets
strietly, but occasionally there is a
leakage, and I am able to give tbe result
of cue. Dark furs, as seal, miuk aud
black marten, are cleaned with f.tio
cedar or mahogany sawdust which Is
kept In stock by furriers.
"Tbe garment is ripped free from the
liuing aud tbe fur laid on a table with
tbe huir up; then the sawdust is rubbed
)u tbe hair aud neither strength nor
awdcst spared during tbe process.
Wbeu finished, shake tbe far lightly
over tbe table and save the sawdust t bat
drops out Then put upon the table one
or two feather pillows iu their usual
muslin slips, and upon tbeso lay tbo
furs, bair dovu this time, and beat
thoroughly with a switch until the saw
dust is out and tbe fur as clean as a
pin. Keep moving tbe pillows, as tho
fur must have a soft support while
beaten. White furs are cleaned with
white cornnical applied as tha sawdust
is on tbe darker varieties, if white furs
are only slightly soiled, they may b i
cleaned with maguesia in small cubes
that is well rubbed in and then thor
oughly dusted out"
She larettlgated,
A case occurred not long ago lit

he was her devoted admirer.
The girl looked on his suit with soaio

however, was not informed of ber pres
