Call for Meeting of the Republican County Committee. The members of the Republican County Committee are hereby requested to meet in Huselton Hall, Batler, Pa., on Satur day, Feb. 6th, 1902, at 2 o'clock P. M., to fix the time for holding the Primary Election and for the transaction of iracb other business as may come before them. A full attendance is earnestly request* d A. M. CHEISTLKY, J. A. PAIHTM, Chairman. ROSS MKCHLf*G, Bee. * Meeting of the State Committee. At the meeting of the Republican State Committee in Parlor C. of the Continental Hotel of Philadelphia, last Friday, Harris burg was selected as the place, and Wed nesday, April 20th, as the time for the Republican State Convention. There were nineteen votes for Pittsburg as the place, and twenty-one votes for Williams port, but Harrisborg seemed to have the call. The time is two weeks earlier than was absolutely necessary, and it will necessitate the holding of our primariesjnot later than Batnrdsy, April 16th. Oar County Committee meets tomorrow to docide this and several other matters regarding onr primary. TJIE terms upon which the United States Government will consent to regard the controversy with Chili as clpyl have been made public. They are simple, defi nite aad eminently just. The United States accepts the withdrawal of theMatU note aud the apology tendered by the San tiago government for the murderous as sault upon oar seamen at Valparaiso. The amount of pecuniary indemnity to those dependent upon the murdered men is to be decided by friendly negotiations be tween the two governments. The dispatch sent to Mr. Epan shows the desire of the President and his Cabinet to make reparation as easy as possible for Chili. Having won the main point at issue the United States can well afford to deal magnanimously with the smaller republic. There is no wish in this country to humili ate Chili unduly. The administration will undoabt&ily show as much generosity in settling the final terms of the affair as it did courage and firmness in insisting upon the vindication of the national honor and full atonement for the insult to the flag. ONE of the best known and most sub stantial Republican fanners of this section stated to us a lay or two sinco that he "would not vote for a man who would vote for the re-election of Senator Quay." And there are enough other Republicans in Mercer county who think the same way to make it worth while to respect their wishes. Their numbers are not getting leas, either.—Sharon Herald. Praising the President. At the meeting of the State Committee in Philadelphia last Friday, the following Resolutions were adopted. Resolved, That we tender to * jident Harrison and his Cabinet onr congratula tions on their very able and suooesifhl management of the unfortunate Chilean affair Resolved, That the firmness, wisdom and patrotism displayed by the administra tion throughout this threatening and dan gerous imbroglio have been characterized by that patience and magnanimity found alone in true stateemanship. Resolved. That the attempt on the part of a few bombastic Democratic parti sans and their British allies to character ize the President's late methods as a parti san measure, is as unreasonable as it i« unjast, aud is, in the light of the latest in formation, wholly without foundati on. Resolved, That the firm and graoeful manner by whioh the administration has compelled the world to understand that the dignity and honor of our country will be maintained at home and abroad, enti tles it to the lasting gratitude of all free and grateful people. IT is said that Armstrong Co. will have three candidates for State Senate, this year, in the persons of Ex-Sheriff Fiscus, W. B. Cochran, Esq., and W. B. Meredith all of Kittanning. The nomination of the dis trict is conceded to Armstrong Co. this year and we hope that the Republicans of that county will give us a good man to vote for. The Roee and the Lily. We have received a marked copy of the . Mauch Chunk Coal-Gazette and the article to which our attention is called is a biog raphy of William Lily, a wealthy coal op erator of that place,who wants to go to Con grois, and who would be pleased to have a place ou the Republican State ticket as one of the candidates for Congressmen-at- Large. The man who is said to be "slated" for this nomination from the western end of th»State is Maj. McDowell, whom we will call "The Rose of Bbaron," and if he goes ou the tioket there is no reason that wo know of why bis running mate should not be this Lily of Coal Valley; though there is a man whose home is in the northern central part of the state, and whose name in Galusha A. Grow, with whose merits the people of the state aro far more familiar. AT Beaver, last Monday Judge Wick ham sentenoed Measers. Porter and Mel lon, publishers of the Beaver Star, who were convicted of criminal libel, to pay the costs of proseoutlon, pay a fine of (600. and be imprisoned for six months in the Connty Jail. The Judge, in addressing the defendants, spoke of their persistence in publishing things about Quay, and their lauk of contrition; things that bad nothing to do, legally, with the case on bands, and whieh-fttrniahed him with a very poor ex cuso for bis outrage o u* sentence. THE Carnegiee generally set the pace in the iron and steel bneinees. They have just closed a contract for nearly a million tons of irou ore, involving the very large sum of three million dollars. This would indi cate that tbey have faith in the continua tion of the present aetivfty in this line of manufacture and the prosperity of the country generally. TUB U.S. Supreme Court has ousted Gov. Thayer of Nebraska and putin Gov. Boyd; and has also affirmed the Constitutionality •of the Anti-Lottery aot of last Congress, . WASHINGTON. In the House Monday, there was a squabble over the rules. Several Demo cratic members criticised Ex-Speaker Reed's idea of a quorum, and he replied that "The principle that the presence of a majority of members constitutes a quorum has bad the sanction of every court to which it has been referred, and I think that it ought to have the sanction of this house." On Tuesday the proposed Democratic caucus on the silver question was aband oned. Mr. Harter, in speaking of it said: "I decided not to push the silver caucus for the reason that Democratic opinion is changing very rapidly, not only upon the wisdom of passing a silver bill, but upon the merits of the question. While last Thursday nine ont of ten men would have predicted that a free silver bill would pass the house, to-day I venture to express the opinion that no bill providing for the tree and unlimited coinage of silver will pa*s this season. "The most intense, honest and earnest of the free silver people recognized the fact that a tree silver plank in the platform would break the party in twain and that we would have to say good-bye to New England, to the Middle states, and such states as Wisconsin, Illinois, lowa and Michigan. In the house the discussion on.the rules was continned. In the Senate, the Committee on elec tions reported in favor of Dubois as Sena tor from Idaho. There will be a minority report in favor of Claggett. Mr. Palmer, (III.) submitted a resolution for election of Senators by the people. Mr. Voorhees rose to a question of personal privilege, and in heated terms denounced the statement made in a Washington dispatch to the Philadelphia Pre*# that he had of fered to assist Senators Cameron and Quay in opposing the confirmation of Judge Dallas if they would help defeat the con firmation of Judge Woods. Senators Cameron and Quay also denied that there had been any bargain. THE Republican representatives of the eighteenth district met at Lewistown a few days ago and abandoned the conferee system of making congressional nomina tions, and adopted a plan giving each of the seven counties in the district repre sentation according to the Republican vote. By this Franklin will have six dele gates, Huntingdon five, Mifflin, Union, Snyder and Juniata foilr each and Fulton three, making a convention of thirty dele gated. The same day similar committees In the sixteenth district met at Lock Haven and adopted the plan suggested by the late State convention of one delegate for eaoh county, one for each 2000 Repub lican votes or naaj jrity fraction, thereof. No other district seems willing to adopt the brilliant fifteen puzzle that prevails in this district. This district will probably stand unique and alone as the only one that would tolerate such a mode of nom inating congressional candidates. Perhaps the others have too much regard for the personal liberty of their delegates, and a desire to avoid scandalous bribery suits afterwards.—Ax. Pittsburg's Place At the fifth annual banquet of the Pitts burg Press Club, last Thursday evening. Hon. John Dalzell was assigned the duty of telling of "Pittsburg's Place in the Nation," and spoke ae follows. Pittsburg's place in the nation is vastly different in fact from what it appears to be on paper. The Pittsburg of the census is one thing, the real Pittsburg another and different thing. The truth is, as we know, that Allegheny county is a great hive of living industry, known by many names, but essentially one and indivisable —a great city of half amillion of souls. Wheth er or not the highest interest of these scat tered municipalities would best be sub served by one central government that should introduce order and system, reduco officeholders and enlist scattered energies in a oommon purpose is a question, to say the least, deserving of very careful consid eration. I express no opinion on it at this time. Pittsburg is a eity rioh in every way, magnificiently dowered by natnre, rioh in the romanoe of its origin, in the story of its growth, in its great names, its wealth, material and moral, and,' better tbau all, in its men and women. No prouder in scription adorns palace, temple or city gate iu any clime or of any time than that which speaks to us from the walls of the Old City hall. It tells in figures of human suffering alleviated and human wants tenderly cared for iu the groat struggle for the preservation of the Constitution and the union A whole eloquent history in a single paragraph of man's bravery and woman's sustaining love in the cause of country and human liberty.; Mr. Dalsell then took up the history of Pittsburg from fbe planting of Ft. Du quosne, detailing the oolonial struggle tor independence of the planting of tho British flag by Gen. Washington over the desert ed ruins of the fort at tbe point and the naming of the city to the glory of William Pitt. He spoke of the growth of Pittsburg in population, area, in the character of her people, in the comforts, conveniences and luxuries of life, in her architecture, in hor interest in art, her primary relation to the nation, and the volume of ber products. He favored the Erie ship-canal project, claiming that it would bring into access new markets without number. In couclu sion he said: t Pittsburg's place in the nation is that of a city with interests of such national im portance as to demand such national care as shall make real all tbe advantages that nature intended her to have. We need im proved waterways and we need now water ways. And in this respoct governnieut owes us a duty, for the reason that with out its aid we cannot have them. Private capital may, aud does build railways with lavish hand; it has grid-ironed tho conti nent; but railways cannot take tbe place of waterways, and private capital canuot safely touch our rivers. Under the most far-reaching and despotic power, for tbe exercise of which our federal Constitution provides tbe power to regulate commerce, tbe jurisdiction of the national government is exclusive and supreme over our (water ways. 1 foresee, and I trust the vision may be of a.well-grounded faith, and not of incli nation meroly, a great oity reigning like a queen from ber dominant seat at tho headwaters of tbe Obio. Into her lap au extended commerce shall pour with lavish band tbe wealth of many Climes. Ready of reach from all the scources of {supply, the products of tho field, forest and mine shall be brought to test the magic of her industry, and recreated shall go forth to minister to tbe needs, and tastes and pleas ures of a still advanoing civilization. Tbe comfort shall be here, let us hope, of a city where all that science can contribute to keep life and health shall find practical illustration; where law shall reign over a people living in tbe midst or influences that shall educate and uplift, aud where the crowning shall be, that ber men and women shall be worthy of their surround ing and pledges of still more glorious fu ture. SOME weeks ago tbe cable dispatches from London stated that Spurgeon. tbo great preacher was dead, but be wasn't. "Ho died again" last Sunday, at Muntone. Italy, aged 58 years. TUB Lousiana Lottery has decided to give up tbe ghost, and the dra wings will come to an end in 1894. The People must Decide. Following the declaration of Rodney A. Mercur that if elected to the State Senate in tlie Bradford Wyoming district lie will be opposed to the re election of Senator Qaay, came a similar declaration lroni I. McPherson. who is a candidate t-»r the Senatorial nomination. Mr. ilcl'herson declared that Peuusylvania should be more ably than now represented in the United States Senate. In his statement Mr. McPherson says that the people should indicate their choice for Senator in the election of mem bers of the Legislature, so that the choice of the Legislature when made shil! be the choice of the people. This is the exact issue. The man sent to the Senate of the United States from Pennsylvania should be a representative of the State and its dominating political sentiment, and not merely the choice of a few members of the Legislature who may act from a mere sense of personal obligation—as was the oas-5 in Senator Cameron's election and not at all with any consideration for the sentiment of the party. The Legislature is the machinery only through which the choice of the people is expected to be made, just as conventions are designed to express the party prefer ence in the nominations made. There will be no question before the next Legis lature of more importance to the people of the State and to the Republican party than the election ol a United States Sen ator who will hive, for six years, the care in national legislation of the great inter ests of one of the foremost States, and whose character, ability, and breadth ot statemanship will be accep ted by the country at large as illustrative of the character of our people and the party which elects him. The rigbt of the peoplo to participate freely and early in any movement which at any stage can have an influence npou the result cannot be denied. Free discus sion will be discouraged now only by those who fear discussion aud dread an active interest on the part of the people, in an affair which belong wholly to them. Whatever the choice is to bo it should be the intelligent and untrammelled ohoicejof the Republican people, expressing them selves through those whom they send to the Legislature. If it is to be Senator Quay it should be because the Republicans want him, and not because they can't help it. If it is to be anybody elsj it should be for the same reason. Tiie peoplo must make the choice thems-slves by electing to the Legislature,only such men as will re 'spectjami carry out their wishes. The issue has been brought to the Re publicans of Brabford Co, in its siraight est form. They know what to do now, whother they arc for Senator Quay or against him, and as a matter of fact it is perfectly well known the opposition in that steady Republican county is over whelming. The same discussion and a'similar canvass should bo made in every Republican county, no that the Republican voters shall have a chance to expross them selves unmistakably on this vital question. If thoy do not do it at the primaries and in tho nomination of candidates for the Leg islature they will have no opportunity to do it at all.—Philadelphia Press. THE Republican County Committee of Allegheny Co., met in City Hall last Sat urday and fixed the date for the primary in that county for members of the legisla ture, State Senator, Congressman and President Judge of C. P. No., 1, for Satur day, May 28tb. The late date is consider ed a Dalzell victory, and his friends think, assures'him a solid delegation from that county. The primary for the election of delegates to the State and National Con vention will be held on March Bth. Blaine's Letter. WASHINGTON, Jau. 31. —The following is the reply sent by Secretary Blaine to the Chilian note of apology of the 25th inst: DEPARTMENT OF STATE ) WASHINGTON, Jan. 30. $ Egan,\hlini»ter, Santiago: t am directed by the President to ac knowledge the receipt of Sonor Pereire's dispatch of the 25th inst. It has been com municated to Congress and has given great pleasure to the people of the United States and to the executive department, as it re stores the correspondence between the two republic* to a bonis of cordiality and makes, as he believM, a full and honora ble adjustment of all unsettled matters easily attainable. The President notes with gratification the expressions of regret for, and condem natory of, tho assault upon tho sailors of the Baltimore offered by Mr. Pereira aid congratulates the Chilian Government up on the frank and ample withdrawal of the Matts circular and npou the spirit of jus tice displayed toward Minister Egan. You will assure the Chilian Government that the President will .be glad to meet in the most generous spirit these friendly overtures. Believing that the subject of reparation for the assault upon the seamen of the Baltimore now capable of adjustment be tween the two governments by the usual diplomatic methods the President post pones for the present any discussion of tho suggestion made by Senor Peroira as to the use of other methods, not donbt : ng that the sense of justice of Cliili will sua ble tho two governments to speedily and honorably make a full end of the wholo matter. Birthday Anniversary. On Monday, January 20, a supprise was given, Mr. aud Mrs. Samuel H. Brown, at their residence near Buena Vista. The day was tho 48th anniversary of Mrs. Brown's birth. The children had plauued to have their mother go* to spend that day with her daughter Mrs. F. E. Mc- Grew, and at noon time, when all parties had arrived, Mrs. Brown was sent for, and requested to repair to her home at once, as she had company who desired her pres ence, and also their dinners. On her arrival she found her home under tho man agement of sumo eighty friends who were busy arranging matters, which made the occasion a grand suoe«Hs,and Mrs. Brown's surprise was untold. Two large tables groaned beneath tho weight of good things, to appease the appetite of man. After all had partaken, the meeting was called to order. W. F. Campbell was chosen Chairman and J. J. Sutton secretary. Mr. Jacob Rimer wascall ed upon to make tho presentation speech, which was very appropriate aud impressive. Tho tokens of esteem that bad been select ed for the occasion were then presented. Mr. Rimer then offered prayer, after which Mrs. Brown responded in a few very ap propriate remarks, acknowledging her gratefulness to her guests for their generous gifts. The company then joined in sing ing, "God be with you till we meet again," after which they adjourned to their homes. The following is a list of the donors and their presents: A fine China tea-set of a 128 pieces was a gift from her children; also a fine gild ring by her son Mr. W. M. Brown, of Mc- Donald; Mrs. A M.

The Capture of "Fitx, Fredrick Carleton Fitoimraoni. the burglar and murderer, who escaped from the Pittsburg Jail some time ago was ar rested in the streets of Xew Orleans last Saturday night, and fully identified next day. lie will be held and extradited, The story of his capture is interesting, and is as follows. On Dec. 5 last Holmes Anderson, who bad been charged with the murder of John Gunsaulis, was discharged from jail. Be lore his departure Detective Beltihoover aud Warden McAleese examined his effects and found two scraps of paper, each of which contained a note addressed to Holmes Anderson. They were shown to Murphy, who identified the writing as be ing that of Fitzsimmons. One note read: Day sth day of December. Time, 7to 9 P. M. Place, office of the Tanderbank house. Xew Orleans, La. If I am not there inquire at office for letter for Holmes Anderson. Yorß FRIBSD. The other note was as follows: Time, first day ot January, Place, City Hotel, Xew Orleans. Wait two days. The evenings of Jan 1 and 2, then inquire for a letter at the office of the hotel for Holmes Anderson, Time 7to 9 o'clock. These notes had been given to Holmes Anderson by Fitzsimmons previous to the latter's escape from jail. He wished An derson to meet him at the places named as soon as he was released from prison. It was generally believed at that time that Anderson would be released. Judging from the positive tone of the note it looked a« if Fitzsimmons felt confident that there would be no interference with the carry ing out of his''jail breaking" plot. He gave Anderson $125. The authorities knew that Anderson had received money from the murderer previous to the latter's es cape, but it was not known for what pur pose. It is now believed that the under standing between the two was that the money was to be used in paying Anderson s expenses to Xew Orleans. On December 12 Murphy and Betihoover consulted with District-Attorney Borleigh and the county commssioners. These offi cials decided that it would be good policy to send a detective to New Orleans to work up this rather indefinite clue. Detective Adam Lang was detailed for the work. When he reached his destina tion he found a letter at the Vauderbank house addressed to Holmes Anderson. It was dated St. Louis, December 3, and read as follows: FRIKKU HOLMES: Can not be there on the 15th. Remain in the city and meet me at the same place on tne Ist day or 2d or 3d of January at the same time as understood. YOCR FRIESD On December 15 Long visited United States Detective Wild, stationed at New Orleans, who at the reqnest of Clerk Lind sav of the United States district court of this city, had consented to aid in the case and informed him what had taken place. Chief of Police Gastcr and the Boylan De tective agency had also consented to aid. Tho hotel was watched lor three days, but the man sought after failed to put in an appearance. On December 27 Detective Finney, act ing under instructions of Mr. Murphy, de parted for New Orleans. He reached there two days later. The Yanderbank house was closely watched during the first three days of Jauuary, the time appointed by Fitzsimmons for his meeting with An derson, but the fugitive failed to show up. Finney remained in the Crescent city nntil J«uuary 11 and nothing was heard of the men wanted. He then came home and on the day after he had left another letter ad dressed to Anderson reached his hotel. This was forwarded in accordance with the instructions left by Finney to Murphy in Pittsburg. This letter was also dated St. Louis and said in substance that the writer had the best of reasons for not meeting him on the dates appointed, but he hoped Anderson would be in the city soon and would meet him on January 20 or 25 or February 1 at the latest. He felt certain he would be on band and hoped his friend Holmes would be able to be there also. "I see" said he in the letter, "th»t you once more breatb tho air ot freedom and got out of the Pitts burg 'hospital' December 6." Mr. Murphy again consulted with Attor ney's Burleigh and Robb and the county commissioners. Finney was sent baok to Nuw Orleans, reaching there January 20 He remained about the office of the Van derbank hotel lor three or four days, but saw nothing of Fitzsimmons. On the eve ning of January 25 he saw a man pass by the office door who answered Fitzsimmons' description. The latter walked about a square aud turned into a bar-room on the opposite side of the street from the hotel. Finney followed and on entering the room found that be was mistaken as to the identity of the stranger. He had turned around when be noticed a little man wear ing a heavy black beard aud a peculiar shapped hat pass from the bar to the cigar store iu front, kept by a man named So gacci, aud then pass oat of the door. Finney followed close on the little fellow's track, but owing to the darkness lost Bight ol him two blocks away. He was almost positive it was Fitzsim mons from the hasty glance he had caught of the stranger. He returned to the cigar store aud engaged Sogacci in conversation. Ho learned that the individual who had just departed was a stranger to the cigar dealer, lie had first visited tha store on January 20 aud purchased a package of hand-made cigarettes of a peculiar pattern. These, instead of being pasted, as are the ordinary cigarettos, were turned in at the ends. Tbey were known as Havannas and were imported and costly. The stran ger v isited the store nearly every bay foru week and was an inveterate smoker. He told Sogacci that he had not been in New Orleans since the exposition; that be stop pcil at the Hotel Demasbad and he was a gentleman of leasuro on a trip through the South to drive away ennui. He was quite liberal with his money, and invited Sogacci out to see tho sights. The stranger spoke French, and said ho had been in nearly all the large cities of South Europe. Tho cigar store is almost directly across the street from the hotel which Fitzriinmons in bis note bad designated as his meeting place with Anderson, and the stranger ap peared to he constantly on the lookout as if ho expected soino person to arrive at that hostelrie. Sogacci spoke of his customer's peculiarity iu the choice of newspapers He never read any paper but the New York llcrald, which ho bought at Ellis's tore in a side street uear the cigar store. All this information was commnnicated to Detective Murphy by a letter which ho received from Finney on January 29. In the description of the peculiarities of tho suspected person Murphy recognized those of the fugitive murderer. He had at bis office in Diamond street a package of cigarettes idenlieal with those described by Sogacei. They had been taken from Fit*- simmons the night of bis capture in Home stead. lie was an inveterate cigarette suioker and had been in New Orleaus during the tho exposition exhibiting an incubating machine. He preferred the New York Herald to all other neswspapers, talked French and was always talking about his travels. Murphy was certain Finney was on the right track. February Ist was tho next date sot for his visit to the hotel to meet Anderson, and when tho telegram tolling of the cap ture of the noted lugativo reached Pitts burg Murphy knew their long ohase was ended. The following telegrams, wbicb indicate tbat there is no doubt whatever as to the Identity ol tbe man under arrest, were re oeivetl at poliee headquarters, Pittsburg, Monday night: XEW OKLBANM, Feb. 1.

Southern California. EDITOR CITIZEN:—Our sojourn in Monro via, Cal. has been prolonged owing to the fact that we have been agreeably dissap pointed in the beauties of this semi-tropic country and in the manner in which her generous populace has shown us their hos pitality. Iu all Southeran California no other spot is so delightful as the famous San Gabriel Valley. Is was in this Valley that flourished by far the most prosperous of all the many missions founded by the Franciscan friars over a century ago. This valley proper, extends east and west for twenty-five miles on both sides of the San Gabriel River and from the Sierra Madre Mountains (which almost overshadow the writer's temporary domicile) t.» the ocean. Monrovia—where we are making our headquarters— is locat ed 8 miles east of Pasadena and the noted Raymond Hotel—both in sight, and 17 miles east of Los Angeles, on the through line of the Santa Fe and a» the terminous of the San Gabriel Valley Rapid Transit Ky- The site of this beautiful foothill city, which wo believe the loveliest spot in all Southern California, is less than a mile from the base of the towering Sierras, and the land slopes gently away to the east, west, south and north; a rich, decomposed granite soil, very productive and the best for oranges and citrous fruits. Here we are 1200 feet above the sea,with a magnificent view of the peaceful Pacific and iu full view of tho Santa Catilena Is lands over 00 miles distant. With a ther mometer 80° in the Shado, fruits, flowers, and the checker-board fields of newly peep ing grain—backgrounded by the vast or ange grovos—is enough to rouse tho en thusiasm of an old time Pennsylvanian and prompt his glowing accounts thereon and his travels and experiences in this land of sunshine. Tho beautiful mouutaiu scenery just above us, its summits reach ing up among tho clouds to a heigtith of 7000 feet and the scarred and seamed out lines of these mighty mountains —guard this city and valley from the northern cold and present a picture of awe-inspiring grandeur and sublimity. The luxuriance of plants and flowers and the great variety of foliage in this vicinity, yet in its infan cy is perfectly marvelous. With Monrovia's boastful orango grove— lie annexed immediately east—the (annus Duarte orange ranches —whose fruits have won them repeated laurels, and at two suocessiveJState Citrous Fairs have received first prizes on their oranges—being best quality, size and color. In and about Monrovia there are many places of interest, one worthy of especial mention being the home place of E. J.
