The State Convention assembled in the
opera house at Harnsburg ednesdav
morning. Walter L. Lyon. Esq., of Pitts
burg. was the temporary chairman and
made a vigorous speech. At the morning
session tho committees were appointed
and a platform adopted. At the afternoon
*wu«ion, Senator Geo. W. Dalainater was
elected permanent Chairman, and Henry
K. Boyer won nominated for State Treas
urer. Mr. Boyer is a native of Montgom
ery cocnty. V. 11. Andrews was also
unanimously re-electod State Chairman.
Mr. J no. Dindinger, of Zelieuople, was
selected as the member of tho State Com
mittee for this county.
The platform endorses Harrison's Ad
ministration; upholds the protection poli
cy; advocates such amendments to the
pension laws as will provide for all honor
ably discharged veterans of the late war,
whose advanciug years, or wounds, or in
firmities, disable them from total or par
tial support; endorses the action of the
last Legislature in its efforts to improve
the road Jaws, and recommends amend
ments to the license laws. Tho paragraph
on the license law is as follows:
"The Republican party having in 1880
declared in favor of the submission of the
question of the prohibition of the manufac
ture and rale of intoxicating liquors to a
rote of the people, and having in two sue
connive Legislatures, through the method
ordained by the Constitution provided the
machinery for reaching a fair expression of
the public sentiment, and the vote, to se
cure which it was pledged, having been
taken, declares that it has fully and honor
ably fulfilled its contract in fhis regard.
In view of the result of said election, and
having regard for the preservation of the
purity of tie homes of our Commonwealth,
we heartily endorse the Brooks High-Li
cense law and recommend such
amendments thereto as will tend
to its proper and progressive improvement,
and also bring witliilt its scope the control
of wholesale licenses."

A Niw York bandmaster committed
suicide lately in a novel manner. Alter
loading the gun he filled the barrel with
water, put the muzzle to his head, and
pushed the trigger with his toe. His head

old fashioned German way of committing
suicide.*
The Internal Revenues.
The report of the Commissioner of Inter
nal Revenue for the year euding J uno 30,
1889, is of interest in many in many ways.
Among other things it shows that the to
tal collections for the fiscal year just end
ed were $130,895,432. and this sum has
been duly accounted for and covered into
the Treasury. For the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1888, the total collections wore
$134, which compared with fiscal
year ended June 30, 1889. show an increase
of *6,568.957.
From statemeuts accompanying the re
port it appears that the total receipts from
the different objects of taxation during the
last fiscal year are as follows:
From spirits, $74,313,206, an increase of
$5,007,039 over the previous fiscal year;
from tobacco, $31,866,860, an increase of
$1,204,429; from fermented liquors, $23,723,
835, an increase of $390,617; from oleomar
garine, $894,248, an increase of $30,108;
from banks and bankers, $6,214. an jn
■W«ase of $2,011, and from miscellaneous,
$91,069. a decrease of $74,248.

Legal Side of the Flood.
The Conemaugh disaster has given birth
to-many dilliculi problems other than that
of providing for the wants of the thousands
of sufferers. One of tl"ese is a will contro
versy among the heirs of Christian Kiinpel,
a Johnstown furniture C«siur who perished
with his wife in the flood. The couple
were childless, and under the terms of
Kimpel's will his estate, amounting to
♦IB.OOO, of which 10,000 was personalty,
was bequeathed to his wile, tile personalty
absolutely, and his real estate to be held in
trust for her, going to his tivc brothers and
sisters after her death. One of Kimpcl's
brothers, Valentine, is a resident of this
city, and lie engaged Lawyer Sorbemhoim
er to Mean the estate. The relatives of
Mrs. Kiinpel, however, had already secur
ed letters of administration on the ground
that the personalty belonged to Mrs. Kim
pel absolutely and al her death would in
vert to her heirs.
A nice legal question i« presented by
thi.- slate of affairs. If the wife died Lrst,
of course the bequwst to her would be iu
valid, and the estate would pass to Kim
pel's relatives. It, on the other han 1. the
husband was the firs*, to perish, then Mrs.
Kimpcl's relatives are entitled to her be
quests. Then' is absolutely no means of
ascertaining which was the first to perish,
but Lawyer Sorbernheimer believes that
the matter will bo settled by the presump
tion. under the common law, that the wo
man, being the "weaker vessel," was the
first to die.—Philadelphia Record.
Tiih battle which took place on Saturday
at or near Toski. a small town on the west
bauk of tlie Nile, resulted as was to have
been expected, iu the defeat of the 1 der
vishes. It was hardly to be expected,how
ever, that the defeat would have been so
crushing, and that the victory would have
beeu won at so little sacrifice of life on the
part of the Egyptians and the Itritish con

The Reunion.
At the third meeting of citizens in the in
terest of the Union Reunion, held in Court
room Xo. 2. Tuesday evening, it was stat
oil that the members of the 13th and 102 d
regiments had already secured accommo
dations at the hotels aud boarding houses,
that the members of the 134 th and 137 th
would picnic at the Fair grounds during
the afternoon, and all would banquet in the
riuk that evening
Col. Sullivan, of the banquet committee,
said they had estimated that from five to
six hundred seats would be needed at the
banquet, an.l besides these, there would
be present 140 ladies, and the committee
men. and that as these would probably fill
the hull, the committee had passed a reso
lution prohibiting the admission of any
others, and had decided to issue regimental
tickets to members of the different regi
ments. also that the members of the 13th
and 103 d would receive their tickets in
Sheriff Redic's office, those of the 102 d in
Treasurer Amos Seaton's office, and those
of the 137 th in County Clerk Reuben Mc-
Elvain's office: that a sub-committee had
arranged for tables, chairs and kitchen fur
niture, another had arranged a bill of fare,
another had arranged for the purchase of
supplies, another for securing order in and
about the hall, and another had been ap
pointed to assist the ladies; that invitations
had been sent to 140 ladies to meet, Tues
day evening, in the T. M. C. A. rooms,
that the greater number of these had at
tended, that their eagerness aud zealous
ness to make the banquet a success was
inspiring, that the committee had arranged
the ladies in groups of seven, on# group for
each of the twenty tables and that all had
acquiesced, and that it was a foregone con
clusion that the banquet would be a per
fect success; that the banquet committee
would need about lour hundred dollars.
When the finance committee was called
upon for their report. Mr. Stein said they
had not yet done anything but would meet
and organize and go to work as soon as
they ascertained how much money was
needed, then he referred to the fact that
almost everybody who subscribed liberally
would expect tickets of admission to the
banquet aud that some would not subscribe
unless they received such tickets.
This brought on a general discussion of
the management of reunions, wnich was
participated in by Messrs. Clark, Black,
Heineman. Fleeger, liazen. Goucher and
Sullivan, and though it ended in referring
the whole matter back to the banquet com
mittee, it seemed to be the general opin
ion that no civilians whatever, exccptiug
those members of the banquet committee
actnally necessary to assist the ladies in
their work be admitted to the hall. No
arrangements were made for speeches in
the hall, and if the members of the regi
ments present want speeches the}' will
have to call upon the orators of their regi
ments.
The program committee reported that
they had done nothing, but would meet
the next day.
Mr. Eastman said that the 102 d had se
cured half rates at the hotels i.e. 25 cents
a meal, or one dollar a day.
The decoration committee was reported
to be at work and was decorating the hall
in connection with the committee of the
liose Co. aud would divide the expense
with then.; the transportation committee
would arrange for the hauling of tho aged
and crippled from the depots and for horses
for the regimental officers; the music com
mittee would need a little money, and the
whole_sum needed to make the reunion a
success would probably be S6OO.
On motion, the G. A. R. post of Butler,
'the Veteran Legion, the military company,
the Hose companies, and the boys of the
Orphans' Home were invited to take part
in the precession, and were asked to be in
line by 10 o'clock.
The finance committee wa.> authorized
to fill vacancies in the committee.
Gen. George W. Heed was unanimously
chosen chief marshal of the parade.
The selection of a person to make the ad
dress of welcome was left to the program
eommittee, to report at next meeting.

Si'LLTVAN, the champion slugger, was
arrested in New York last Wednesday on
the warrant of the Governor of Mississippi;
a requisition from the Gov. of X. Y. was
procured and he was started South.
He passed through Pittsburg last Fridey
evening, aud made his supper at the depot
of three chickens, which seems to be his
regulation flose.
When he arrived at Jackson, the capi
tal of Miss., the people gave him a grand
reception, which so angered the Governor
that he ordered Sully placed behind the

October 10th, 18H0, has been set for the

merely gone before as a sort of advance

A COI NTY seat war i.* raging in Kansas,

prevent the people of Eminence and Ra

violence to decide which shall have the

in fayor of Eminence, this would seem to
settle the matter; but her people are not
willing to await the result of a rehearing
of the case, and are determined to remove
the records it ouce fioin Ravenna; hence
the trouble.
A NEW petroleum field has been discov

that the indications point to the existence

great excitement at Portland, in lona
county, the chief town ncur where the dis
covery was made, and doubtless a rush
will be made for the new field.
BERLIN is very much taken with a young

in the costume of the Don Cossack, which
consists ot a red skirt, blue jacket and
long apron, embroidered in gold, she pre

The New Elixir of Life.
Tbe experiments of Dr. Brown-Sequard
of Pari*, or rather the reunite of those ex
periments ore attracting the attention of
the mcdinal world. His elixir is the "in
spissated juice i f the proereative glands of
guinea pigs and rabbits," and is iitod by
injecting it under the skin. Some of the
results, as reported, nre remarkable—old
and broken-dov. u persons have been made
to feel young n r - iin, diseases of long stand
ing have been cured, etc.
Dr. Hammond, the retired Surgeon Gen
eral of the T*. S. Vriny, na lately inter
viewed on the subject and aid:— ' When
the first accounts of the elixir of life' were
received in this country," said he. "I was
very much disposed to doubt the efficacy
of any such means, because, as I read the
matter, I)r. Brown Sequard used the juice"
of various glands, etc.. but when 1 trot the
full details in the French Muliral Journal
[ found that his experiments were restrict
ed to the use of the inspissated juice of the
proereative glands of guinea pips and rab
bits, and. I think, in one case, in one case,
of a dog. lat once inferred that the rea
son why the guinea pig and the rabbit had
been used was because they had been han
dy in the doctor's laboratory.
'•I thought I -aw an objection to using
the proereative gland ot a guinea pig or
dog—that the one remarkable thing about
the guinea pig was that it is timid, and
that the dog i- not carnivorous and not ed
ible. lat once concluded that the corres
ponding glands iu the sheep were far pre
ferable for sueh experiments as I designed
to perform.
'•I therefore procured the proereative
glands of a sheep, cut them in small bit-:,
ground them in a mortar, mixed the mass
with a small quantity of water, and then
filtered the ma-< through pure Sweedish
filtering paper, the purest of all that is
made. I thus obtained a clear opalescent
fluid.
TRIED IT OS HIMSELF.
'•I injected thirty minims of this into the
arm of a man a little over 60 years ot age.
having previously injected a quantity of it
under my own skin to show that it was
nothing injurious. It i.« a rule of mine to
perform all of my own experiment* upon
myself first."'
Dr. Hammond turned np the sleeve ot
his black alpaca coat and the wristbaud of
his buff-colored flannel shirt to show that
theje was no mark even where the injee
tion about 8 o'clock in the evening. N"
ill consequences ensued, lie said the next
that ho had become frae from a rheumatic
pain that he hail had in his left arm for
over a year.
"lie had heen unable to button his shirt
collar or to use his arm freely in any way,
even to scratch the back of his head or to
stroke his hack liar, until the day he recov
ered the free use of that arm."
••Did it stay curedf" was asked.
••yes," the doctor replied, "it staid cur
ed. I saw him not an hour ago. lie has
had three injections altogether, lie tells
me that his power for work has been much
increased, and his labor is of sueh a char
acter as to require the use of the mind as
well as the body."
'•He adds that he has noticed a buoyau
cy spirit that he has not enjoyed for fif
teen years, and that ho has recovered cer
tain functions that he had supposed he lost
fifteen years before. His vitality he was
sure had increased in every respect.
••Knowing so well," Dr. Hammond went
on, "that the principle of suggestion is
sueh a powerful influence with almost all
persons, I hesitate to give an unqualified
acceptance to what appeared to be the
outcome of the experiments. It requires a
number of observations before I can ac
cept the results as absolutely reliable, and
I am now about to extend the experiment
very considerably.''
NOT YKT si'RK OF TIIE ELIXER.
'•How about your own iujocti<>|i' Ha
lt braced you up perceptibly?"
••I can't say so. I have thought that I
felt livelier all day. but of course there is
no telling whether I took enough to have
any effect or not."
"These organs." he wont on to explain,
"arc brought to me fresh. They belong to
a lamb—yes, it's no doubt pretty good
mutton; the animal is not dead an hour be
fore the 'elixir' is under the skin of the sub
ject."
"There is this diffrence from eating
these organs, as you know wo do, and find
them great delicacies; the cooking destroys
the vitality of the germs that may be pres
ent, so would delay. If kept as long as
twenty-four hours it would be inefficacious,
and perhaps dangerous. It requires an ab
solutely fresh essence."
"It is evidently a great thiug.'"
"Well, I haven't much faith, at the same
time 1 admit a great many things that can
not be proved by mathematics. Two aud
two certainly don't make six, yet every
year the domain of the impossible becomes
less, aud the domain of the possible and
actual larger."
"What one hundred years ago was abso
lutely impossible, and the doctrines the
