It In speaking of the potato crop and Its outlook, an exchange says : "The potato raisers have been mystified over the ap pearance of the potato tops during the last month. In many catches the leaves have turned sere and brown as of early fall. Some who used parts green attributed the cause to it, but others who have not used this poison complain of the samo troublo. Those who are well posted in the matter say the brown and dying tops are caused by a blight, the re sult of a fungus at the root of tho plant" The resolution of the Pennsylvania School Teachers' Association, calling upon the Legislature to increase tho school term in rural districts from six to nine months, is a move toward ending an injustice that has long existed. The public school system should provide meani of education to all alike, yet the children who reside in towns havo long had a decided advantage over the chil dren of farmers, not alone from superior instructors, but by reason of from three to four months more schooling each year.

Robinson. During tho forenoon of Thursday a stranger, who had been noticed about the day before In a fairly well "jagged" condition, was seen at tempting to ride a wheel on upper Elm street. The authorities were notified and went after the man, and found him sleep ing off his "jag" on ono of the islands below town. He was placed under arrest and brought to the Hotel Agnew where ho was placed in a room with a guard ovor him and given a chance to finish his nap while a warrant was sworn out. But the guard was not very vigilent and the man, who gave his name as Jo seph Hawthorne, and his residence as Mc Keesport, Pa., tied the bed sheets to gether, swung himself out of tho third story window, dropped fifteen feet to the ground and made a dash for liberty. But in his descent be passed the window of Mrs. Agnew's room and she immediately save the alarm and the man was cap tured without much trouble. He was given a hearing before 'Squire Randall and in dofault of bail was placed in the county ja.il.

II When people stop to think that every word in the cabled dispatches from San tiago costs the papers 16 cents for trans mission alone, with equally heavy ex penditures for dispatch boats, etc., they can realize that it costs money to issue a first-class paper.

The Pennsylvania division of the League of American Wheelman offers a reward of $25 for the arrest aad convic tion of any person who steals the bicycle of any member of the organization re siding in tho State. Tbe division ffioials have just been called upon to pay the first reward under this offer. W. J. Ben nett, of Wilkesbarre, secured tbe amount he having captured the thief who stole a wheel belonging to Dr. Gaist, of the same city. As soon as it was known that the wheel was stolen, and that the League would pay a reward for the thief, Bennett started to work with the above results, and the consequence is that the owner had his property restored without cost to himself. This is another of the great ad vantages of membership in the League, and one that will be heartily appreciated when a machine is stolon. An exchange has discovered that peo ple do not drink enough wator. It is strange, says the paper, that the thing that has made springs and other resorts famous bs never been applied to every day life. The invalids who visit those places drink all the water they can hold and think all the good results come from some ol its properties. Sheer nonsense ! It is simply very poor water taken in such quantities as to cleanse the whole system and flood every organ. Be side its cleansing properties water ab sorbs etfoto matter and carries it through the system, and tbe purer tbe water tbe greater its power of absorption. Diseases of tne kidneys yield to its power, and liver and stomach troubles coase to exist Even rheumatism, local heart trouble, indigestion and the numerous other an noying ills of tbe flesh due to impeded circulation disappear before the restless power of plenty of water.
