Creasv, the democratic candi
date for State Treasurer, is making
rspeec hes in the State for his cause,
which he has a right to do, but for
intelligence sake some of the brainy
men of the party ghoul 1 furnish
htm with a new speech. He is us
ing an old speech that does not lit
the new laws passed by a republi
can legislature for the management
of the State Treasury. The speech
he is delivering now is about as
appropriate to the new conditions
as if he were to deliver Mark An
thony's oration over f he dead body
f Julius Ceasar.

BRIEFLY ON TRUSTS.
The ouestion of trusts is bcin
tlisi-nsspd. as to their lieneficial and 1
harmful effect upon society at ' McAlister, de-eased, in Fayette town
large. It is charged that by the Brubaker, de
rganiwition of capital all indivi-1 JJSSrtetowll teal estate, granted,
dnal efforts or competition must. jn the Rsnigned estate of H. Pilgrim
fail. For example a western car- Clark, of Turbett township, real estate

But say the trust promoters,
'don't yon see we have sold a cart
to forty thousand different men at
$3 to $10 a piece less than if they
had bought without trust competi
tion and the saving of that much
to 40,000 men is a great public
.good, even if it does tear small
competition to pieces financially."
It isu"t any worse th-.in a merchant
coining and opening a store next
loor to you or opening a printing
office where 3 011 have one or open
ing a lawyer's office or a doctor's
office alongside of your office. If
sill things are equal the face of the
thing does not seem so hard, brt
the inequality comes in where the
one has unlimited capital to fa'l
back on and the other has - neither
credit or capital and must needs
be driven to the wall. Sometimes
trusts put plants alongside of other
nterpnses that they desire ex
tinguished and by their low prices
destroy the weaker one by
Itreakiu? prices. Trusts may or
do sometimes secure control of bus
iness enterprises and then extin-
iruish a number of business plants
4ul in that way create a demand
for that certain line of business and
its nroducts. Such are a few of
the works of trusts. Do you think
they result in a lenefit or injury to
society generally!

TBE PENSION QUESTION.
The pension question was discuss
d in the late G. A K. encampment
af Philadelphia. The Philadelphia
Inquirer makes mention of the ques
tion, thus:
Since the adiournment or me
Grand Army Convention with its ex
discussions of the pension ques
tion, thoueands of veterans nave Deen
making inquiries of each other with
rd to Order No. 225. which the
r - i i
Eubamoment asks shall be abolished.
nn.i esoeciallv iSo. lb, wnicn u
wants reinstated. The latter order
was issued by Green B. Raam, when
bo was Commissioner ot r"rfnsions on
0.-toli.r 15. 1890. and reads as fol
lows:
Tbafc all claimants under the act of
June 27, 1890, showing a mental or
nhraical disability or disabilities ot a
normnnunt character, not the result
of their own vicious habits, and which
incaoacitate them from the perform
anca of manuel labor, rendering them
unable to earn a support in such
rWree as would be rated nnder form
er Taws at or above $6 and less than
$12, shall be rated the same as like
disabilities of service origin and that
all ctses showing a pensionable disa
bilitv which, it of servicu origin
wonld be rated at or obove per
uioi'th. shall be rated at 12 per
monlh.
- On January 7. 1893. toward the
close of President Harrison's admin
iRtration. Assistant Secretary of the
Inttrior Ctrus Buarey rendered what
ia known as the Weike decision,
nrairticallv annulling this order. In
ilniniT oo ha said:
The fore-going order has governed
the practice of your' bare an in the
matter of rates under the act of Jun
27, 1890, since the date of its issue.
It appear?, however, that said order,
a understood by the department
when approving it, may hava been
aoiscoDstrusd by your bureau at fr
as it has been jour practice to ad 1
the separate nominal and schedule
rates allowed for several disabilities
in making a rate under this act
This has resulted by reason of the
fact that it has been your practice
under the old law to combine these
rates where the total 'does not ex
ceed 17-18. The question as to tha
correctness of that practice is not
now before the department for da
cision.
WAS NOT INTENDED .
It is d.-emed proper to state that
the department in approving said
Order No. 164, did' not intend that
small rat3 should be added togeth
eras lit example, three or moro
rates of 2 18 in order to make a rate
ouder the provisions of said act. A
man may have twj or more separate
afflictions either one of which, con
sidered singly, entitles him to a $2
rate under the old law and yet in the
aggregate they may not disable him
for the performance of manuel labor
to a much greater degree than either
of them existing alone. Or he may
have one serious disability and one
or more slight disabilities, the latter
of which do not have any appreciable
effect upon the degree of incapacity
for manuel labor occasioned by the
former.
Tie basis of rates under the act of
June 27, 1890, is inability to earn
support by reason of incapacity for
manuil labor due to a permanent
mental or physical disability not the
result of vicious habits Iu determ
ning w'l ifi ve a i ipnlici it is eat itled
to a rate under said act for the char
acter of disability afore-mentioned
the onlr qmstion is: Ia he from the
cause or causes -lnvjivea oe iney
one or many disabled for the per
formance of manuel labor to the ex
tent represented by the fractional
rata of 6-18. If so, he is entitled to
the minimum rate of $6. And so on
until the maximum rate of $12 ia
reached. It is directed that the views
herein exoreesed be observed in fu
ture abjucations of claims nnder the
act of June 27, 1890. Ia the claim
of Mr. Weike, now nnder considera
tion, while it is conceded that a disa
bihtv from disease ex'sts which alone
would be ratable nnder the old law,
if of service origin, it is not believed
that this disease, combined with
rheumatism, disables for manuel la
bor to an extent which entitles bim
to a higher rating than $8 per month.
Rheumatism ia his chief disability.
Ho is evidently able to perform con
siderable manuel labor. The rejec
tion of the claim under the act of
June 27, 1890, is affirmed.
THE LATEB ORDER.'
Two months later Clfevjland's ad
ministration came in and Hoke
Smith became Secretary of the In
terior, with Willam Liochren as Com
miss'toner of Pensions. Ol June 9,
1893, Order No. 225 was issued, and
it raised a s tot jo of protest, though
it appears 1 1 have bsen based upon
Bosrey's decision and was . adopted
practically to carry the latter into el.
ier. itVls-ca ioUowe:- '
1. A claim for pension under the
second section of the act of June 27,
1890, can only be allowed uporrproof
of mental or physical disability of a
permanent character, not the result
of the claimant's own v cious habits,
incapacitating him for the perform
ance of manuel labor in such a de
gree as to render him unablo to earn
support.
2. No specific injury or disability
can, as such, have a pensionable rat
ing under that act, nor bs consider
ed otherwise than as it aff -ccsthe ca
pacity of the claimant to perform or
dinary man ael labor
3. Proof that the disability is not
the result of the claimant's own vic
ious habits is requisite; and there
fore the cauaes and circumsl ancea of
the origin of the disability should be
ehown by the evidence furnished in
support of the claim tor pension, so
far as cin be done, ana by persons
other than the claimant.
4. To give the claimant a pension
able status under this act the disa
bility must be such as to incapicitate
him for the performance of manuel
labor in such a decree as to render
him nnable to earn a support; yet the
act recognizae differences in the de
cree of such pensionable disability,
giving twelve dollars a montn in case
of 'he greatest, and six dollars per
month in ese of the lowest degree
of such persionable disability render-
ins the claimant unable to earn a
support by manuel labor. It also
provides for intermediate ratings
proportioned to the intermediate de
crees of such pensionable aisaoiaiy
The r rotter ratines under this act
will, therefore, be made in accord'
ance with such rules for rating as the
medical refree shall prescribe, sub
ject to the approval of the Commis
sioner.
In an interview printed in The In
quirer a few days ago Commissioner
Evans said that Order No. 225 was
not being enforced now and that No.
164 he never considered to ie good
law or even erdod common sense, and
he doubted if it could be re instated.
This question the encampment refer
red to Congress.

PORT ROYAL FAIR.
Big day, fair day, a variety enter-
tunment never so many people ner
at one timo before, big Indians, trh!
That's what was said a thousand
times last week at the Port Ryal
fair. The fair has been runmnsr a
full (feneration and the men who
managed it when .first started have
naarlv all rja&sed beyond the river
Jordan to the happy land of Canaan,
aid thosa who were boys looking on
in wondermant thirty years a 10, are
the managers with better and larger
grounds and larger assemblages
The big day was on Thursday and
the crowd was tjerfeetly Kraleidos-
copio in its movement of people, and
wonderfully resonant tn souna iroiu
the voice of the faker and the boo!
hoo! and hi! bil of the Indian to -the
tuff, tuff step of the race horses feet
on tne track. The turn out of car
riages that were lined out of tbe a a7
a?o ig the inside of the fence was nn
precedented and would have made a
procession miles in length, if movirg
at one time on any of the roads of
the county. Mifflintown contribut
ed its full share of people. The ex
hibit was the best in many years.
The buildings contained the finest
specimens of the needle handiwork
of ladies, choice fruit, fine potatoes,
plump wheat, large white oats, corn
and a fall line of garden vegetables,
maze and several nice specimens of
castor oil plants, musical instruments,
stoves, cream separators, harness,
&c The grounds, if they lacked tbe
agricultural implements, it was be
cause they were left rest in the big i
barns and out-bouses on the farms of
the county. The people have those
thiDgs for nse and not for show, and
the agricultural implement agents
believe that they caa drive their bus
iness better, operating in other ways
than through the channels of an ag
ricultural fair-ground The manage
ment were select in the securement
of entertainment for the multitude,
and the boys and girls of such an age
aa to rrc-ive impressions will never
forget the snake charmer the sleight
of hand performers and trick of
dodging a ball, the industrious Dan-
isn village, tee American war snip,
and the songs nnd banj playing of
sailors and the half hundred Indians
from Carlisle Indian school. The
Indian band was represented by a
score of tribes. Their rendition of
civilized music was first rate. While
there was no gusto about it
their earnest stoical expression
gave evidence of the heartiness
with which they Bounded every note,
and when tbey struck an Indian
tune on their instruments the de
light of the audience broke out in
applause -
Their "when tbe wbite man coecs
to the Indian" camp," oansed the
white man-to Ion? for more of the
sam-'kind. Some of the Indians
told thst their grand-fathers had
poken to them , of . the Tnscarora
mountain In: the east.- They little
thought when they were thus -ad
dressed by their sires that tbey would
give entertainment to their white
successors in the very presence of
that grand old mountain that per
petuates tbe name of an Indian
tribe, Tuscarora, What a nice
smooth word. What awful trage
dies were enacted in its forests and
along tbe banks of the creek of the
same name tbat traverses tne xuaca
rora valley. The musical notes of
tbat Indian band last Thursday were
wafted to and plainly beard on tbe
very spot where the crack of the In
dian's gus and the stroke cf his tom
ahawk and the swish of bis scalping
knife did their deadly work upon
white settlers across the creek from
MeCulloch's Mill at the time of the
last great Indian raid in this valley
in 1763. Every white inhabitant in
this valley that, was not killed at that
time was chased across the mountains
to Carlisle where the present Indian
band received its musical education.
The writer thought of all this when
he sat listening to the music made
by the Indians last Thursday and by
his side was a woman whose ances
tors were chased out of the Tuscaro
ra valley by the raiding Indians n
1763 and within the rang ot his
vision at that moment were the rep
reeentatives of two ether families.
who were settlers in Tuscarora Val
lev. and of course they too- were ref
ugees to Carlisle where the descend
ants of the then raiding Indians are
now being educated. "Talk about
pedigree," said a man at our elbow.
"why them red-skins over there on
the nlatform tooting music Deat the
pedigree of the pale faces on this

shooting off his gan. They thought
it was thunder and lightning.' "But
Golly what fine aausic they make. If
tbe Indian had only adopted the
ways of the pale face in industrial
affairs what a race they might be to
day. "Fate! fate! cruel fatef
Tbe great fake of the fair was the
"Wild Man from the Phillipine Is
lands." It was intended to play the
game here as it was so successfully
played at the Gra ger's picnic at
Williams' Grove. But the "cat got
out of the bag.' The management
did not know that the "Wild Man,'
was a sell. Tbe men in- charge of
the show were mild mannered and
their dress looked like the dress of the
brave soldier boys that served on the
firing line beyond Manila. Tbe show
belonged to Harry Roat of Harris

SINGULAR FISH CRADLES.
Father Fl.h Who flatebes Bis
lfoanir In Ills Month.
In the Nile there Is a singular fish
that has lieon known from enrly Bible
times. It is tledlratcKl to the Apostle
Simon or rotor. Is known as Tilnpla
slmonis and is esjuK-iallj- common in
"nloKtlne nutl tin? son br lake of Tibe
rius. Nearly all those tislios have a
singular method of caring for their
young. At the time of sisiwuing the
mother fish forms a little uost among
the roods ami rushes, in which she Ue
IKisits iorhais 2oO jrroon ogg, alioiit
the slau of shot, which slio liumetliatc-
iloserti. 'Curiously ouoiigh. Ui ull
the thousands of fislios lut tliiiMj orfour
Inslancos aro knowu s-licre the mother
displays .any affection for her young or.
reuiclns ly thoui;
The father stntina.- hliuwlf by the
nost nnd presently aii)cars to le dining
upon the og;j. but If ho I.-: taivfully
watchotl It will 1h gvvu that he is tak
ing .them 1:ko his iiiout'j with the
-rvni.st- care am! nyn twallowinR
them. They arc Imlg-.tl lu what cor
rtpouils to tbe chef-Its and hol J there.
The eggs noon liatt-h. the l!t:le tislios
grow and tlie countenance of Mr. Tlla-
la lioooraoH givatly swolh'U and paff-
Cfl out of aH seinblauoe to his former
Sclf. He cannot beglu to close his
mouth and presents a most extraordi
nary appearance.
To accommodate ami protect the
growing family the fish submits to
great inconvenience and only permits
tbem to escape when it ts a physical
impossibility to hold tbem nuy longer.
At this time the father will undergo
severe treatment rather than relin
quish his progeny. lie has been thrown
out upon tbe beach, but still clings to
hit charge, even during his deat?
struggles. Many of the young remain
In this singular cradle until they are

In German varnish factories an easy
way to extinguish a burning pan of oil
has been fouud in the use of a fine
meshed wire not. As soon- as tills cov
ers the burning surface the- h-o6 wires
conduct off the heat so rapidly that the
arnses can no longer tome. It is the
principle of the Davy safety tamp and
might be employed In various ways to
extinguish burning gases.
There Is Bibllear proof ef the fact
that gloves have been worn 3.000
years." The first mention, of them ta
made In the book of Ruth.
The finest, pnrest and most nutritious-
