The War at Washington.
The Parliamentary struggle in the House
at Washington, during the past few days,
has attracted the attention of the entire
nation. It began with a motion made In-
Representative Dalzell, last Wednesday,
to take up one of the West Virginia con
tested election cases. The Republicans
have a majority in the House and there
fore a quorum to do business, in them
selves. but a few of their number were
absent, and the Democrats noticing this
refused to answer to their names when the
roll was called, though sitting in their
seats, thus blocking all business.
But Speaker Reed had the names of a
few of the Democrats called again, and
upon their again refusing to answer, he
directed the clerk to enter their names on
the journal as being present, and an
nounced that there was a quorum present
and that the business of the House would
proceed. This brought about a tumult,
the Democrats protested and threatened,
the Speaker remained firm and decided,
and for three days a war of words raged.
On Saturday the Democrats gave up the
fight, and the first contested election case
was argued and on Monday a vote was
taken and the Democrat was ousted and
the Republican sworn in.
Some of the absent Republicans had re
turned and the vote stood 106 to 0, the
Democrats refusing to vote.
On Tuesday there was more filibustering
on the part of the minority and but little
was done, though it was understood that
the committee on rules would meet that
night and agree upon a set of rules that
would put it out of the power of the minor
ity to block all business by dilatory mo
tions and refusing to answer.
On Wednesday the new rules were
completed and presented to the Republi
can caucus and by it adopted. They give
the Speaker the power to disregard dilato
ry motions, and count members in their
seats as being present whether they answer
or not. These rules will probably come
np for consideration, in the House to-day.
TnE Spaulding Iron Works at Brilliant
near Stubcnville, were closed last Thurs
day. Bad management was the cause.
A QAHG of scamps in Xew York bought
three banks, turned the securities into
cash, and were getting ready to decamp
when arrested.
THE steamer Bothnia, containing Miss
Bisland, arrived at Xew York last Thurs

GEORGIA has a boy preacher thirteen
years old. lie will be that age f.. the

INDIANA has five healthy sets of triplets.
The people are evidently preparing for the

Miss BLY is getting lots of proposals for
marriage from dudes. But she was smart
enough to buy a monkey on her route
home.
IT is currently reported that Postmaster
General Wanamaker has a strong desire to
succeed Don Cameron in the United States
Senate.
IT is a significant fact that nearly all the
ehnrches have entered on an epoch of
creed making. Such periods are rare in
the history of the church. One was the
century following the conversion of the
Roman Empire, another was the Informa
tion. Each of these periods was a re
ligious revolution which c hanged the whole
character of Christianity.
The West Virginia Steal.
Those who have been indulging the
hope that at least two or three righteous
Democrats would be found iu the West
Virginia Legislature, and that the man who
was chosen Governor by the people would
be awarded the office, have been djomed
to disappointment. There is scarcely
room to doubt that Fsrd and Merrill went
down to Charleston with strong inclina
tions to vote for Gen. Goff, and that they
wouid have done so had they been left to
the promptings of their consciences and
the freedom of their own wills. This view
is strengthened by the conduct of Harr, in
raising the cry of bribery. It is apparent
that this was only a ruse to gain time aud
bring the recalcitrant Democrats to terms.
As soon as the kickers were "fixed" the
bribery issue was abandoned. It had
served its purpose, aud the committee re
ported that the charges were not sustain
ed, thus entirely exonerating all the Re
publicans alleged to have been implicated
in the attempted bribery.
On the question being takeu in the joint
assembly, there was a solid Democratic
vote in favor of Fleming and against Goff.
The President of the Senate, Mr. Carr,who
has been figuring as a Labor Republican,
voted with the Democrats in pursuance of
an agreement, it is said, by which he is to
be the Democratic Labor candidate lor
Congress in the Third district.
The villainy has been successfully con
summated, but the day of reckoning is
not very far distunt. The people can be
relied on to right these outrages sooner or
later, aud in this particular case the retri
bution is not likely to be-, long delayed.—

TIIK secret county convention, in Cum
bria county, that elected Delaniater dele
gates wan not in (tension over twenty niin
utes and as soon as the delegates were el
ected the President announced "there be
ing no further business tlio convention
stands adjourned." No call had been pub
lished and not one Republican in twenty
in the county knew of the convention.
But the scheme has proven to be a most
vicious boomerang and has aroused deep
indignation in the minds of all fair Repub
licans and Air. Delumater has lost standing
in the party. If he expects to secure his
nomination by such disreputable prac
tices, he manifests a deplorable ignorance
of the sort of stuff the average Republican
is made of. —Indiana Mtuscnycr.

Alfred Ilardwick. an Englishman,
who for several years ran a woolen
mill at Kennerdeli, Scrubgras town
ship, recently eloped with a young
woman of that township and is believed to
have returned to his old home in England.
He left a wife and several children in a des
titute, condition at Kennerdeli. Before
leaving Hardwick gathered together all
the funds he could and took everything
that he owned with him.
On Friday last the Oliver Iron and Steel
Co. of Pittsburg paid $103.000. the last of
their million and a half indebtedness. In
January of ISSS the firm was forced to al
low some of their notes to go to protest,
but their creditors gave them five years and
they came out all right. A member of
the firm said: ••We have been most fortu
nate in having a strong market most of the
years since 1885. and with the advantages
of a protective tariff, have not only been
able to free ourselves from debt, but also
to frequently advance the wages of our
employee. We are naturally very glad
that the debt has been cleared ofT, and
hope that the present era of prosperity has
come to stay."

Carlisle, this state, is a paradise for
tramps, and out of one hundred and twen
ty tramps in the jail there sixty-one of
them were found to be stout, able-bodied
fellows who could work if the}' were put
to work. Why don't the Carlisle authori
ties fix up their streets with a chain gang
of these burly tramps? But doesn't it
look a little strange to see one hundred
and twenty tramps in one jail—and men,
at that? It was only a few years ago that
the members of the Legislature from Cum
berland succeeded in passing a tramp law
which it was thought would do away with
the boarding and lodging of a horde of
of tramps in the county jail. Either there
is some ddfect in the law or it is disregard
ed. Xo wonder the sheriff of Cumber
land county can draw thousands of dollars
every year from the treasury for boarding
and lodging inmates of his county hotel.
A lot of big, lazy loafers do not want a
softer thing than a life of ease in Carlisle
jail. And, come to think of it, the sheriff
has a soft snap, too.
A Sharon butcher was badly taken iu by
buying a wagon load of calves lrom a She
nango township farmer. The latter tied
them in the bottom of the wagon so as to
hide a lot of convenient sized stones
amongt them. The whole cargo was
weighed and the stones thrown out on the
slaughter house, then the weight of the
wagon was deducted, minus stones. Lat
er developments led the mtcher to believe
he had been tricked out of at least fifty
lbs. of veal.
A Lancaster county Judge a few days
ago sentenced a young fellow to pay a fine
of fifty dollars, costs of prosecutiion and
undergo an imprisonment of of 40 days ia
the county jail for giving a boy a drink of
whiskey on an excursion twin one day
last summer. There is a warning in this
sentence that should suggest a better em
ployment than putting the bottle to his
neighbor's lips.
The murder of Grover McCausland will
cost Greene county upward of SIO,OOO.
The trial of Jim Xeff, who was acquitted
by a Washington county jury, cost (ireene
county $2,791.92. The trial of the Clarks
will no doubt swell the cost to at least the
first named amount. The murder of Her
man Umberger, lias cost Somerset county
$2500,54.
It will take SIOO,OOO to put the famous
stone bridge at Johnstown in the condition
it was before the flood.
At Bellcfonte, Pa., Tuesday, Andrews
was convicted of murder in the first de
gree, for the murder of Clara I'rice, whom
he followed the woods, assaulted, outrag
ed and murdered. The only sensation of
the trial was the evidence of Sheriff Cooko
who testified that shortly after the incar
ceration of Andrews he was taken sudden
ly ill and sent for him. He went to his
cell and found the prisoner in a broken
condition, lie said, "Sheriff, you would
n't like to hang me, would vouf" "Why,
no," replied the Sheri fF.
"Well, my God," replied Andrews, "you
will have to, for I was the only man that
followed Clara I'rice down to where la
wns murdered, and there is nothing under
the heavens that can save me."
A Penn Twp. Wedding.
One of the greatest social events that
has taken place in liutler Co. for some
time was the wedding of Mr. Harry LI.
Bricker of Jefferson twp. and Miss Mary
K. Graham of Penn township, at the home
of the bride's parents, on Thursday, Jan.
30, at eleven o'clock. After the guests
had gathered into the parlor, a wedding
march was played upon the organ by Mrs.
A. L. Graham when the bride and groom
marched in. accompanied by Mr. Howard
Graham and Mi.s Barbara Henninger.
Then cere._ouy was performed by the
Uev. K. Ogden of Glade Mills.
After congratulations were extended to
the happy young couple came the best ol
all an elegant dinner, in which all ■ took a
very active part. When dinner was over
they left fur the depot amid bountiful
showers of wheat and well wishes of all
those prcsjnt, not only on their wedding
tour but all through life.
The presents were grand and numerous.
A reception was tendered them by Miss
I.die at her home oil North Ave., Alleghe
ny, on Thursday evening.
Mr. and Mrs. Hriekcr intend to begin
housekeeping and will live in l'enn twp.
We extend to them our congratulations.

While the ladies in the dormitory were
engaged in gymnastic exercises, Miss Anna
Taylor. <if Allegheny, fell and was severely
injured. She has been confiticd in bed ev
er since and there is a possibility that the
injury may be permanent.
John Meiiride, of l uionville, whose
grippe became pneumonia, is almost strong

Mr. McQuistion, of whose recovery the
physicians had little hope last week, is ra

Communion services were held in the I .
P. church last Sabbath. The preparatory
exercises were conducted by Uev. Davis,
of Clintouville.
The drillers' tools are still last in the

We had hoped that the epidemic would
pass over us without the death of anyone
but now comes the report that Miss IMna
Steele cannot recover. Her mother has
been with her since the first of last week,
and she has received the most careful
attention, but all efforts seem to be
fruitless. (Miss Steele dicl of pneu

Cranberry Twp. Institute.
The teachers and directors of Cranberry j
twp held their first Institute at School ;
Xo. G, on Saturday. Jan. 25th.
At an early hour the teachers, directors
and citizens commenced coming in. tow- j
ari Xo. G from all directions.
By 10 o'clock the house was crowded j
until nearly all the seating capacity of the |
large school house was taken up. In the |
forenoon the school proceeded pretty j
much the same as on the regular session,
with the exception of some recitations and
declamations, which were given at differ
ent intervals. All of the exercises during
forenoon were good and were appreciated
by all present. Miss Cox deserves the ap
proval of every one for the way in which
she conducted her school and entertained
the audience, during the forenoon, thus
i-howing that she understood her business
in the best possible manner, and also that
the pupils are eager to grasp the instruc
tion which she imparts. After the exer
cises of the forenoon were exhausted, Mr.
Graham announced that it was now time
for the Institute to hear froui directors,
teachers and citizens. A few responded,
stating they were well pleased with all the
exercises. Mr. Graham then asked a
blessing, and the lunch was passed around.
All partook very heartily of the lunch,
especially the teachers. It now being after
12 M., the Institute did not take up until
1:30 p. m.
The afternoon session was opened by
Mr. Graham, who led in prayer. Mr. Rus
sell was elected chairman, and Miss Cox.
secretary. The lirst thing was a class
drill in fractions by Mr. Sipe. lie took
the teachers for a class, and proceded to
illustrate how he starts beginners in frac
tions.
The licit was a class drill in spelling by
Miss Cox. She said: It had often been a
query to her that children in our common
schools could spell words of three or four
syllables and yet miss easy every-day
words of one or two syllables. By the
way she proceeded, one could see that she
understood what she was doing. Next
Mr. Russell told how he starts beginnners
iu grammar. After making out a program
for the next Institute, the Institute ad
journed to meet at School Xo. 4, (Mr.
Sipe's school) on Saturday. March Ist.
The following are the topics ussignei to
the teachers for the next meeting: Miss
Cox, "Spelling;" Miss Pierce, "Reading;
Mr. Kinsey, "Duty of Parents to Teacher
and Teacher to Parents." Mr. Russell,
"Duty of Teacher in and out of School."
Mr. Hunter, "Writing." Mr. Sipe, "Class
drill iu Primary Arithmetic."
CHICAGO will not down. The executive
committee of the world's fair has decided
to increase the $5,000,000 contribution for
the fair to $10,000,000. and so notified the
committee of "projectors" in Washington.
Money talks very loud, aud Xew York will
have to take a back seat unless it can shout
a louder song than Chicago.
So vrondcr the Argentine Republic is
knee deep in financial panic. About six
year.? ago they got tired of the paper dol
lar, which had been holding sway for a
long time, and decided to return to a
specie basis. The dollar they desired was
an alloy of copper and silver about the
size of buckwheat cake. It was essen
tially the dollar of the daddies, for children
couldn't handle it at all. It was the most
collo.'sal thing in the shape of a coin dol
lar ever known in the history of the world.
The citizens had to go shopping with
drays to carry their wealth. It never con
tained silver enough to give it standing
in the dollar court, BO the progressive
financiers brought up the balance in copper.
Death of a Scholar.
BI'FFAXO TWP., Jan. Bth, 1890.
As a school we were called upon to-day
to follow one of our number to his narrow
house of clay. The deceased was Jesse
Lyman, oi.ly son of Joseph and Man*
Todd, aged 11 years, 7 months and 25
days.
Dear Jesse, thou art snatched away,
lly death's resistless hand,
Our hearts the mournful tribute pay,
Which pity must demand.
The once loved form now cold and dead,
Our mournful thoughts employ,
Thou hast from our old school-room fled,
To heaven, the world of joy.
Not long ago you filled your place,
And came with us to learn,
But you have run your mortal race,
And never can return.
Far from affliction, toil and care,
Thy happy soul has fled,
Thy breathless clay shall slumber there.
Among the silent dead.
We all shall meet in the old school room
But we'll not find thee there,
For dressed in beauty's fairest bloom,
Thou with the angels are.
No more thy voice we loved to hear,
Will join in our youthful lays,
Nor fiil our teacher's listening ear,
Nor in our song of praise.
No more you'll hear our old scliool-be'l,
Which you did sometimes ring.
No more with us you'll read and spell,
Nor with us meet and sing.
Dear Jesse, now farewell, farewell,
We'll meet thee ijpon high,
liver with thee and angels to dwell,
No more to say, "good bye.''
