The Hague Conlerence may ac complish nothing, but the Tart mission is doing well. Thk President's recent speeches cover a good deal of space in the newspapers. The late Sara Jones, doubtless, would have condensed the bulk of them into a shorter and not less impressive express ion "Quit your meanness." A new star will be added to the flag on July 4tb, ol next year, representing the new state of Oklahoma, recently admit ted to the Union. By the terms of the constitution sdopted, the sale of liquor is prohibited in the new state for a period of twenty years. Those charged with frauds in connec tion with the furnishings for the Slate Capitol will be brought to trial at Harris burg oo January 27th. The claim that any one concerned in that matter would escape investigation, and punishment if guilty, does not seem to have been well founded. Thk new British liner, Lnsitania, has easily demonstrated her title to "queen of the seas" by making a record breaking voyage across the Atlsntic in four days, nineteen hours and forty minutes. Talk about your ocean greyhounds, but this is going some, and it is likely the record will stand for some time to come. In fact its going about fast enough, con sidering that it used to take from nine to twelve weeks to mske the trip. Thk delivery at a cold storage bouse in Astoria of a 510-pound sturgeon a few days ago is remindful of the old days when sturgeon of this size and much larger were too plentiful to cause com ment. In those days more of the big fish were used for fertilizer than for food, and like a good many other of the great nat ural resources of the State, the Oregonians failed to appreciate the value of the big fish until they were practically extinct. Portland Oregooian. Prohibition State Chairman David B. McCalmont, of Franklin, practically con cedes the election of John O Sheatz in a circular published this week. "The re sult of the campaign of 1907 in this state is not even a matter of doubt," says Mr. McCalmont, The gentleman is quite right in bis conclusions regarding the probable outcome of the present cam paign. There is not now and never has been the slightest reason to believe other wise. Mr. SbeaU was as good as elected on the day that be was nominated, says theTltusville Herald. Tub following from the Punxsutaw ey Spirit will meet witb quite general approbation: Senator Knox puts the case in a nutshell when be says that "Re publican success iu Pennsylvania this fall Involves nothing beyond the indorse ment of Republican policies and the call ing of a well-tried and tested public ser vant to higher honors and graver respon sibilities for which honors he is eminent ly qualified." The questiou is not one of rebuking capitol grafters. All good men, irrespeciive of party, are nnauimous in their condemnation of peculation in public office, and all are agreed that the place to try and condemn criminals is in the courts. Dishonesty is not a political issue. Mr. Sheatz was nominated in re sponse to a demand for a candidate who could in no way be identified with ma chine politics or questionable methods, and there Is no good reason why every man who believes in Republican princi ples should not vote for him. It is highly essential that every Re publican should be prepared to fall in line on November 5th and vote the full Republican ticket. The fact that it is an off year and that little interest seems to be taken in tlio campaign should not de tor any one or render any voter neglect ful. It is evory man's duty to go to the polls the first Tuesday in November and express his preference for stale aud coun ty officials. While there is every indica tion of a sweeping Republican victory this fall, it will nut be won by the Blay-at-bome voters, The only hope of the Dem ocrat lies in there being enough of this class of Republicans who will remain away from the polls and allow the election to go against tbem through indifference and lack of interest in the result. But every earnest Republican must take an interest in politics this year and through the election of its splendid ticket prove to the country that Pennsylvania remains steadfast and will be on hand with an old-fasLloned Republican majority for the Presidential year. The election occurs in less than three weeks, and it behooves every Republican to get busy and see that not only he himself but his neighbor also gets to the polls and votes the straight ticket.

(The Free Methodist.) ' For several weeks past the secular press have been giving more or less extended notices of a sermon that I preached at Fort Wayne, Indiana, on the "Second Coming of Christ." Most of these notices have been either seriously exaggerated or have misrepresented what I said iu that sermon. The following is a sample of these notices. It Is a dispatch from Fort Wayne to the Pittsburg Sun. Bishop Walter Sellew, of Jamestown, New York, who has been presiding at the Free Methodist conference for Northern Indiana, which closet! with religious services yesterday, greatly excited the members of the local Fee Methodist church hero bv a sermon predicting the end of the world within a few months. He did not mean, he said, that the planet was to be destroyed, bnt that all the works of man were to be swept away aud Christ was to wine a Becond time to re build it and make it a tit place fur the dwelling of the Holy Spirit. I did not "predict the end of the world within a few months," nor did I make any prediction whatever. I did say, I thought we were living in the "last days" and that Christ would soou come the sec ond time, and I gave some reasons why I thought so.but I emphasized the fact that it was only my opinion and that 1 could not prove it. I also warned my hearers against the very thing I am here accused ofpredicting by quotiug that scripture which says: "But, beloved, be not Ignor ant ol this one tbiug, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and thousand years as one day" (1 Peter 3:!). I also repealed the warning by stating that it had been the belief of holy men of every ace that Christ was coming again in their time and that tbey had been dis appointed. I also warned them against the heresy of setting any particular dale or time for Christ's second coming, and dwelt at some length on the many Instances where good but mistaken men in the past had fallen into this error. 1 also quoted the scrip ture which says: "But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only" (Matt. 24:30). It will be noticed that anything along the line of Christ's second coming wonderfully moves people, and it is to be hoped that the incident and the extended notice that has been given it may do some good. Walter A. Sellew. Starr and Surroundings. The farmers have nearly won out be tween rainy-days and jack frost, bo they can say tbey are conquerer of one more year's supply laid in store, for which they feel very thankful to their creator. The steam thresher of Patterson & Co, is booked for this week to do the thresh ing in this neighborhood. At present they are cleaning up the barns of Whig Hill's practical farmers, their capacity being 120 bushels of grain per hour. Rev. Monroe, the Free Methodist min ister, after an absence from this circuit for three years, has been sent back for the coming year, delivering his first ser mon last Sunday. Rev. Richards, the Evangelical minister, who succeeds him self for another year, also preached bis first sermon lor the new year. May plenty of good be done, as these two are good men for the work. Mrs. Fred Rudolph, who has been seriously ill for some time past, is at present gaining slowly. Mr. and Mrs. Henry Bush are greatly rejoiced over a brand new girl that came to their borne tbe other day. It is doing o well that tbey have arranged so it can stay. By the appearance of the game bags and the hunters' countenances when they come in from a bunting trip, tbe game Is somewhat scarcer than was expected.

The picking of Concord grapes begins in earnest this week lu the Chautauqua belt A few have already been picked, but the grapes were hardly In good con dition to demand the best prices, though two carloads were sold at Hroctoo at 22 ceuts for elght-pouud baskets of Con cords. It turns out that the New York, New Haven aud Hartford railroad has made more money with a two cent passenger rate than it did before the rate was re duced. The reason Is, there has been large increase In travel. And western railroads have had the same experieuce. Doubtless the same result will follow in Pennsylvania. Several mouths ago the Common Coun- oil of Jamestown adopted an ordinance directing that all poplar treea in lb slreetsof the city be killed and that no more of the species be planted In the streets. The reason tor tins action, it was claimed, was because of the damage done by the roots of the treea which spread to a great distance, entering sewera and caus ing much material damage. Gov. Stuart has appointed the follow ing commission to erect a monument or memorial structure on the battlefield cf Gettysburg In memory of the volunteers from Pennsylvania who participated lu the Civil war, for which the rocent legis lature appropriated $150,000: General David M.

Powell, a civil engineer of Ve nus, will mske an interesting exhibit at court Monday, when the Injunction pro ceedings of H. R. McCalmont. of War jen, vs. Peter Berry, of Plumer, will be argued, says the Derrick. Some time ago Mr. Berry made a location for an oil well on part of the old William Shaw farm in Corn planter township, near Plumer. Mr. McCalmont claimed own ership and by injunction restrained Mr. Berry from carrying out his iutentlon of drilling. In 186." George V. Powell, de ceased, surveyed the property, the own ership of which Is In dispute, and on Thursday his son mads a resurvey of the land to verify tbe notes made by bis father. He was warned off the premises until Mr. Berry could consult his attor ney and on Friday was permitted to pro ceed witb bis work. One of the corners, iu the notes taken 42 years ago, was noted as a white oak tree. It was located and W. W. Powell took out a section six Inches thick and about a foot long from its side. On tbe bark is the mark made by the surveyor's axe so many years ago and in tbe Interior sap ring Is found a corresponding mark made by the keen edged tool, tbe interior and extorior marks being in a line. The sap rlnxs between these (wo marks count up 42, demonstrating that there is no nature fake in tbe declaration that s ring Is added each year to a growing tree. Tbe student in nature will find additional interest in the records he has kept of conditions during tbe period under consideration. During some years the ring was scarcely thicker than a sheet of blotting paper and in others the thickness exceeds an eighth of an inch. Deafness Cannot lie Cured bv local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is bv constitutional remedies.
