JrnoK SIMOKTOS, of Harrisburg has de
cided that neither Dr. Waller or Prof. Sny
der can hold the office of State Supd't, and
until the Supreme Court settles the matter,
Dr. Waller will discharge tho duties of the
office. The Judge thinks Gov. Pattison
bad a right to remove Waller, but is also
of opinion that Snyder's rejection by the
Senate bars him. This decision may fur
ther delay the payment of the school war
rants. Dr. Walter was appointed by Gov.
Beaver on January 8 to succeed the late
Dr. Higbee. The senate was not then in
session, but after that body convened a
few week later Gov. Beaver again appoint
ed Dr. Waller, who was then confirmed
and claims this appointment was lor a fall
term of four years, but no commission was
issued to him and Gov. Pattison appointed
Dr. Snyder. The senate rejected him, and
after the adjournment he was again ap
pointed. Judge Simoton's decision is that
the appointee named during the recess of
tho senate could not legally hold longer
than until the close of the next session ol
the senate and therefore ousts Waller,
and that Snyder is n*t eligible to appoint
ment daring the recess because be was
rejected by the senate. This leaves tho
question in a queer state. Waller is
ousted, but having duly qualified is super
intendent in fact. Ha must also show that
he is such by right, though meanwhile he
will hold the office until his successor is
appointed and qualifies. But this cannot
be Snyder, and the only outcome seems to
be appointment of a new man. The com
plication haa raised an interesting question
as to the instruction of section 8, article 4,
concerning the power of the governor to
appoint daring the recess of the senate.
THB only rip-roaring fan we are having
in polities at present is the fight between

IT is said that Quay has advised Senator

Money for the Schools.
The State's accounting office has just
iwaed a pamphlet containing a_ digest, of
the Boyer revenue bill which contains
several speeches madu by a few members
in support of the bill. Mr. Boyer states
that, starting July 1, with $3,000,000 in
round numbers, the general fund in the
treasury will be prepared to meet the
public eehool appropriation of $5,000,000
payable June 1, 1892.
This statement is made in refutation of
the charge that the schools would suffer if
the revenues were not so largo as antici
pated.

tain" that be will resign the Chairmanship
of the .National Committee next Wednes

SOMB villian tried to wreck an express
train the other night. Ue placed ties
across the track in two places and then
slunk away in the darkness to await tho
results of his crime.
At this time of year the cars are fnll of
people on their way to resorts. Whole
families travel together father, mother
and all the ohildren dreaming pleasant
dreams of a respite from the dull monoto
ny of life or of a holiday which will give
them restored health and strength.
A man may have a grudge against the
railroad company, but he is a double dyed
villian to wreak his vengeance on innocent
tourists. If he thinks there are too many
people in the world and is anxious to kill a
few of them, he had better begin by step
ping out himself and making room for de
cent folk. If he has a private grievance,
he fails to satisfy anything but the malice
of a fiend by wrecking a train filled with
sleeping passengers.
TIIK publication of the report of the
experts who examined Bardsloy's accounts
created a sensation in Philadelphia, and
the Evening Star of that place urges tho
prosecution of Auditor General McCamant.
Tho Press confesses to having paid a
former clerk in the Auditor General's office
named Graffin a commission on the State
business brought to it, and attacks both
McCamant and Bardsley for abusing the
power in their hands. According to the
report Bardsl-jy lost nearly a million by
the failure of the Keystone bank, but over
hall a million is not accounted for.
A Plague of Orasshoppers.
Portions of Cheyenne County, Wycui.,
arc covered by grasshoppers. For three
weeks they have been hatching out, and
myriads cover the prairie for miles just
west of First View. A strip of laud ten
miles wido and extending in a southeasterly
direction across the entire connty is com
pletely hidden from view by the insects.
They meet with considerable difficulty in
crossing the railroad, and consequently
settle upon the track, causing the wheels
of the engines to slip, so that it often
requires two engines to pull the trains over
these places. The extent of territory they
cover is not known, but they are said to
extend over all the land between First
View and Limon Junction, and as far south
as the Arkansas River. As yet they have
dono no damage to crops or grass, being
too young. By the time they are able to
fly or damage crops they will be well out
.of Colorado into Kansas.

LigUuiing Freaks.
During a storm last week three cows
were struck by lightning on the McC'lnre
farm near McKeesport. Not long since
Calvin A. MeLure, owner of the farm, w is
struck dead by lightning at the same ,«>t.
and shortly prior to that a horse met the
Hme fate there.
The particulars of the dealh of Emma
Stone on the Galloway farm in Venango
county are as follows. "Attached to thi
corner of the house in wh'.ch she wis lying
was a wire clothes line, and running at
right angles with*it and about five feet
away was a telephone hue, and the theory
ia that the telephone line was struck first
and that the fluid jumped to the clothes
line; penetrating the wall in three ditler
ent places. She gasped but a very few
times after the fatal stroke, and although
the other members of the family were in
the various parts of the house attending t 1
family duties, not a single one suffered
from the effects of the shock, nor were
they at first aware that any fatal accident
had befallen one of their household. So
marks were found upon her body."
The particulars of the death of Ex-Coni
missioner Alexander of M ercer county are
given f»y the ltispaUh as follow -: "Mr.
Alexander lived oh his farm about f"ur
miles east of Mercer, and on Tuesday wa
engaged with his son Edward and a young
man named Shilling, in cutting rye with a
reaper, to which were hitched three horses.
When the Btorni camo up th°y quickly
loosened the horses from the reaper and
hurried with them to the barn. I'pon ar
riving at the barn Mr. Shilling entered
first with one horse, followed closely by
Ed., he also having a horse in charge, ar.d
by Mr. Alexander with the other. When
just inside the door Mr. Alexander attempt
ed to loose the jockey stick from the bridle
of the horse, and while in that act the
death dealing electricity struck the barn,
ran down the door and jumped to the horse -
head, killing it mstantly, cutting the
bridle from its head, and then entered Mr.
Alexander's right hand, with which he
' held the bridle, into his side and down
1 his leg. Ed and his horse were knocked
down by the shock, but not much injupred
Mr. Shilling was a little in advance, and
was only slightly affected. He first aided
Ed. to rise and then went to Mr. Alexand
er, supposing he wa3 dead, bat found him
living and be shortly rallied and became
conscious. The family had called neigh
bors daring this time (the scene having
been witnessed by Mrs. Alexander) who
had now arrived and ho was carried to the
house and a physician summoned. All
that loving hands eould do failed to prolong
life but about three quarters of an hour,and
death claimed him as its victim before the
doctor arrived. Daring his survival he had
hemorrage, which indicated serious inter
nal injuries. An examination by the phys
ician showed a terrible internal lacerat ion
of the right side, the ribs being torn loose
at the back and the chest pressed in at the
front as though struck by some heavy
weight. As to tlie exact causeofthe death
there is diversity of opinion. During the
excitement the horse in charge
Shilling broke loose and jumped out of the
staple over the dead horse which lay in the
door. He confidently asserts that this
animal did not touch Mr. Alexander, but
others are of the opinion that it -tepped
upon his brcant and so seriously injured
him. More than this cannot be known,
and the question is simply, could he receive ,
such a shock from lightning and not be
killed instantly?
On the 7th, Michael Egan, a driller of
Washington, Pa., had a wonderful expori
ence during a storm. He \ta< engaged
with Robert Ferguson, in hauling some
tools to the Johnson well when it began to
rain. They entered the derrick where Al
Sybrant was drilling. Mr. Egan was stand
ing by the bull wheel when the rig was struck
lur ''chining. and the next moment he lay
unconscious on the floor. His companion!;
were both stunned and Mr. Egan seemed
to be the only one who came in contact
with the bolt. He says he had not the
faintest idea what made him lie down, as he
did not even see the flash of lightning,
nor hear the thunder. There was every
evidence about his person, however, to
indicate that ho did not lay down volun
tarily. The hair had been " burned off one
arm and leg, and they were paralyzed for
some hours. There was not a mark on his
clothes, but in his pockets were some curi
ous specimens of the phenomena produced
by a stroke of lightning. A silver dollar
in his pocket looked as if it had been tiled
off around the edges, while a half dollar
presented the same curious signs. Tho
ends of his keys were fused and at the
same time presented a hacked appcaronce
His silver watch did not stop, but in the
case are two small holes, partially drilled
through, while the links of the chain were
fused together. Altogether it was an ex
perience few have gono through and lived
to tell it.

p A Woman's Letter.
Dear Margery, something tolls irie you're

why 1 do not write.

Tu.it - deprer -ing to my spirit,-, what it is
I cannot quite make oat.
And instead of wearing glasses, of the old

I look' at life, and thin;;- in geueral,
tnrotigh those decidedly bine
And this evening in twilight, silting alone
and apart.
I couldn't help crying a little and it great
ly eased my heart.
But if you discover a vein of sadness, this
letter running through.
Just keep on -tailing won't you , don't lot
it sadden you.
I'll tell yon what I was thinking of in the
twilight cold and gray,
jfemorv carried,me back to "ye olden
timer,." the years that's passed away,
if y thoughts were chiefly sad one?, but f
smiled and so will you,
When yon think of the old t une Reading

And I do not mean to question, or his lov

He careth for us. Margery, though His way

And it's very sinful to murmur, and over
our trials brood,
But to bear their, ia white-lipped silence,
God never meant that we should.
For don't you remember, Margery, when
two sisters mourned their dead.
How "Jesus wept" and "was troubled,"
"Behold how he loved him" they said.
My heart is very tired, T echo the poet's
cry,
"I'm tired of this showy -ecmnig and the

And 1 long for something tuat's true in

There's so utile that's truly genuine and

SPECIALIST
in tlie Treatment of Chronic Diseases,
eonlines his practice to such cases only as
are so clearly and fully developed as to
make a complete and positive diagnosis
without questioning or allowing patients to
make a statement of their condition. This
method of examination is made in order to
eliminate all elements of uncertaintv as to
the nature of disease —a.s far as human
skill and experience can do and inspire
contidence where mistaken diagnosis has
has led to unsuccessful if not injurious
treatment. On this basis of positive diag
nosis for treatment Dr. Clark's experience
has become strictly unlimited by a thirty
year's practice, which in extent, variety
and successful results is equaled by few,
and excelled by none. Patients, MALK or
FEMALE, not cured by ordinary treatment
or in doubt as to the nature of their dis
ease, especially invited.
Dr. Clark on his last visit waited on 80
patients in 2 daj-s at Lowry House, Hutler
