Tub Temocrats of this Congressional
district having tiled no petition for a can
didate for Congress at Harrisburg, aa the
primary law provides, our present effi
cient member, Hon. Nelson P. Wheeler,
will have the field to himself so far as
lliat party is concerned. This is a dis
tinct compliment to Mr. Wheeler, whose
excellence as a representative of ability
and worth, and whose strength as a vote
getter are thus recognized and appreciated
by the pirty next in power to the Repub
licans. The Prohibition party has filed a
petition favoring a gentleman named J.
M. Brown, of Grove City, Pa., who will
be Mr. Wheeler's only opponent at the
full election.
Tub thoughtless fresh air fiend is
given a timely scoring by the Chester
Times in these words: "Simply because
the air feels balmy when t bo exercise of
walking is indulged in, the fresh air fiend
takes it into bis bead that he must whiff
the ozone as be travels in a trolley car or
railroad coa;h; bo up goes the window as
soon as be takes bis seat. Every year at
this season, scores of men and women
will rise to testify that severe colds are
caught solely through the selllsh neglect
of some man or woman to consider the
comforts and rights of fellow travelers.
Rut for all this, the fiend is with us again
and no amount of discussion will get a
aultlcient amount of sense into his addle
pate to make the knowledge of any bene
fit to society."

He la a poor stick of a Congressman,
remarks tbe Oil City Blizzard, who
cannot achieve notoriety at the present
session by "denouncing the President."
The April number of The Ladies
World, New York City, which has just
reached our table, has made an unusual
departure for a household magazine, and
iu connection with its puzzle department
which seems rather appropriate has
obtained the opinions of its readers on
the presidential possibilities. The result
is certainly Interesting, for out of over
two thousand two Lundred replies,
Roosevelt obtained 750, Taft 607, Hughes
392, Bryan 230, Fairbanks 3(1, Johnson 32,
LaFollette 20, Cortelyou 12, Knox 12,
Gray 12, Folk 11, Haywood 8, Foraker,
Hearst, Loeb, Berry, Cannon, Daniels
and Douglas getting each a few. The ed
itor in a brief comment on tbe figures
states that the letters come from every
State in the Union, and whether they
have or bave not any significance, are at
least a free expression of opinion on the
part of a body of representative people.
According to a New York correspond
ent the yellow shoe is coming back. Of
course it has not been away entirely, but
this season it is coming back good and
plenty, for men as well as women. And
the women are responsible, according to
the shoe dealers. The yellow shoe bad
its greatest vogue about 15 years ago, and
then the sales began to decrease, and as
far as men were coucerned, fell off almost
entirely in New York. Last year the
women began to show a liking for brown
and other light colored shoes. Then they
asked for tbe yellow shades. Then some
man was induced to ask for yellow shoes
aud that started it. The buyers for the
big stores, always looking ahead, began
ordering yellow shoes aud tbe factories
obeyed. Hence tbe great and increasing
display of yellow shoes in the windows
along Broadway. "By the time the warm
wave hits here," said a dealer, "tbe town
will be full of yellow shoes."
The clerks of the state department at
Harrisburg are still wrestling with tbe
ayalanche of nomination petitiona, result
ing Irom the first operations of the uni
form primaries act. According to tbe
Harrisburg Telegraph, about three thous
and such petitiona were received, fully
fifteen hundred of which were not filed
until tbe 14th, tbe last day ailowed for
that purpose. Every one of these papers
has to be examined, recorded aud checked
up. Many papers were rejected as defect
ive, iu some instances tbe names of the
candidatea and tbe districts represented
being omitted. Efforts were made to
file petitions on behalf of tbe Roosevelt,
United Labor and Independent parties,
but as only five parties, by reason of the
votes cast, have the right to file petitions,
these were all rejected. The law requires
ail candidates lor congressional, judicial,
senatorial and legislative honors in this
state to file petitions of nomination with
the state authorities, who certify the nom
inations to tbe various boards of county
commissioners for printing on the ballot.
Speakino of the "farcical hypocrisy"
displayed by Congressmen, In voting to
restore "In God We Trust" on the coins,
the Washington Post pertinently aske: If
we are to inscribe these words upon our
coins, why may we not with equal pro
priety stamp them on our bullets? Wby
not cut them on tho blades of our bay
onets? Each does a service for . the
American Government, and tbe work of
war has, in its essence, just as much con
nection with God and His divine charac
ter as commerce. If we are not engaged
in unrighteous war, our bullets may be
labeled wjtb declaration of our trust with
precisely as much and as logical reason
as our coins, since each is but a servant
of hgitimate governmental functions.
Tbe fact is that as individuals the people
of the United States do trust in God. Aa
a government they don't do anything of
the sort. They trust In their might, In
their men, in their ships and guns and
money. Our whole policy as a nation
has proved this. It is a mockery to put
upon the symbols of governmental func
tions a piece of sentimentality which our
whole national conduct proves a bit of
pretense and in reality denies.

Neighborhood Notes.
The latest case of spectacle fraud that
has come to my notice, Alfred Truman
says, was perpetrated on John Ivunselmaa
by a traveling humbug. The only money
John bad was a ten dollar bill, for which
the fakir exchanged a pair of spectacles
such as our home dealers charge $1 for.
When will our people learn some sense,
and under no circumstances deal with
traveling miscreants in the spectacle
business. -Brookville Democrat.
Frank Button, secretary of the Corry
Water company, was a drummer boy in
tbe civil war, has been troubled for some
time with wounds received at that lime.
The pain became so severe that Ibe X-rays
were used recentlv. The photograph
shows two bullets embedded iu the Mesh
with ligaments grown about them in such
a way that their removal is impossible.
He has carried these bullets since tbe
war, being compelled to walk with a
stick, but recently be has been compelled
to use a crutch.
While driving along tbe road between
Snow Shoe aud Clarence, Center county,
Monday ot last week, Frank Uzzle uo-
tieed a flock of crows feeding In a hollow.
He became curious and went to the spot,
where he found the body of Theodore F.
Musser, postmaster at Clarence, who dis
appeared on January 4. A revolver was
found lying by his side and there were
two bullet boles in tbe skull. He had
been in ill health for a number of years
and evidently took this means of ending
bis troubles. On January -Jtb, Musser
left his home ostensibly for the purpose
of going to the postoflice, but when he
did not return at night his relatives be
came worried and although a thorough
search was made, no trace of him could
be found. It was thought that his mind
had become confused and he had perished
in tlfe cold. He was over 70 years of age.

PHIPPS GETS HOSPITAL SITE.
Ground For New Institution ForTreat
ment and' Study of Tuberculosis
Is Secured.
Philadelphia, March 24. The first
atithorlta'lve connection of the name
of Henry Pliipps, steelmaster and phil
anthropist, with the reported pur
chase of a site at Seventh and Lom
bard streets for tiie great hospital for
treatment of patients Buffering from
tuberculosis, which Mr. Phlpps will
establish in this city, under the direc
tion of Dr. Lawrence F. Flick, ap
peared with the recording of deeds
transferring to Mr. Phlpps the prop
erties (1:19-41 Lombard street, which
are included In the proposed site for
the Institution.
II has been reported at various
time, and as often denied, that these
purchases were made to provide a
site for the Institution for the Study
and Prevention of Tuberculosis, which
Mr. phlpps five years ago announced
intention of building and endowing.
Deeds for the last of the ground
necessary for the new Institution have
now been secured. Mr. Phlpps in
choosing the location Insisted that the
hospital should be located within easy
reach of crowded centers of popula
tion, which (he modern study of tu
berculosis has come to consider ns ex
tremely favorable to the perpetuation
Of the disease.
It Is not known that any plans have
yet been prepared for the buildings
which It Is proposed to erect, though
It Is reported that work on them Is al
ready so far advanced as to permit of
beginning work on the hospital be
fore summer Is far advanced. The
purchase of the site has, it is believed,
cost Mr. Phlpps not much less than
$100,000. The building will proliably
cost about $."00,000. Mr. Phlpps, It Is
understood, has pledged himself to
expend at least $l,000,0ov In the es
tablishment of the institution, which
Is to bear his name.
