The Delegates elected to the last Ko publican Convention are hereby requested to meet at the Opera House in the city of Harrisbnrg on Wednesday, Jan. 3d, »t 1- o'clock, noon, of said day, for the purpv.se of placing in nomination a candidate fur Congress-man-at-large te fill th« vacancy ooeaaioned by the death of the Hon. "Wm. Lilly. HOBACI B. PACKKB. Chairman. Attest JBBB B. RBX, Sec Y. BTOBI*B of Hon. John Cessna are now in order. An amusing incident occurred at the Btate Convention of 1885. A. Wilson Norris had just nominated Col. Quay for SUte Treasurer in a speech that, has rarely been equaled. Cessna arose to nominate Longnecker, of Bedford, and alluded to him as a lawyer who had gone to the front rank in a county where they had good lawyers. This pointed allusion to himself oaused a laugh, bnt Uncle John was equal to the occasion and remarked: "Excu r e my modesty, gentlemen—lf it would strike in it would kill me." The Hawaiian Message. It has been very plain for nearly a month past that President Cleveland's obnoxious I policy of restoring the rotton throne of the shameless Liliuokalani a as a complete and ignominious failure. It has been repudi ated by the American people and has col lapsed in Hawaii. > T e*er belore in this generation has any measure of any Admin istration been so odious and unpopular. The only question left was how the Presi dent would seek to extract himself from his dismal dilemma with the least humilia tion. His message sent to Congress is a desperate attempt, not to save his policy which is hopelessly crushed, but to retrieve its tattered character in the public estima tion. The message adds very little light to what iu already known. The only fea ture of new interest are the instructions to Minister "Willis and the indications of the proposed method of restoring the monar chy, Minister Willis was accredited to President Dole. He presented his creden tials with the most friendly and gracious speech. At the same moment he was un der instructions to conceal his mission from the Government to which be was sent but to inform the pretender Queen at the earliest possible 'hour that she was to be restored provided she would grant am nesty to hor opponents. The Provisional Government was not to receive any intim ation until every arrangement had been made with the Queen. The most impor tant despatch of Mr. Willis is suppressed. We are not allowed to see his report of the aitnation as he found it. But the President states that the Queen did not assent to the proviso, and thus that his plan was frus trated. If the Provisional Government re fuse to yield, Mr, Willis was to report; but it is given out that because of the hitch with the Queen the subject was never presented to it at all, and we know its an swer, not through the Minister or the Pres ident, bnt only by the ringing message of both the Government and the people of Hawaii that they wonld never submit to the re-establishment of the offensive mon archy, This is the story as the President gives it, but it excites the suspicion that there is something left untold. Why should the Queen hesitate to grant amnesty if she could be restored? Why should she not be willing to forgive it she obtained the prize? Could there be any other rational explana tion than that she knew she oonld not hold her thrown? Did she not also answer that she would not accept the throne nnless the United States would guarantee to sustain itt Why is the despatch of Mr. Willis of Novemder 16 suppressed? Is it because it reveals these things? And do not the facts thus suggested completely answer the President's whole argument that the revolution rested on America intervention? There is internal evidence to sustain this view. Mr. Gresham's telegram of Decem ber 3 instructs Mr. Willis that if the Qaeen asks whether the United Status will main tain her on the throne he is to answer that the President cannot use force without the authority of Congress. Why was that in struction given at that late day unless the question bad been raised? The Adminis tration had heaid from the country. There was a universal protest. Congress was just meeting. The President was to be called to account. ADd so the instruction that no force was to be used was sent off. But sent at that time it convicts the mon archy and it does not save the President— Prest. CHICAGO is just now experiencing the reactionary effects ot tbe Fair. For three years the great exhibition drew thousands upon thousands of workers to that city, besides the nsnally large number who aspire to live by their wits witbont work ing. Now that tbe fair has ceased, upon the beela of tbe bard times, it has been estimated that there are in Chicago 117,000 unemployed persons. A special meeting of the Illinois Conference of Charities and Corrections was held on Saturday last, at wbiob it was decided that it wasnecessaiy to raise a charity fond of $1,000,000. Shall Thia Bill Pass? The Tariff Destruction bill is a most as tonishing assault upon the industries of this country. Under free wool the great and growing sheep-raising industry would be ruined completely. This would affect the Pacific and Rocky Mountain States, including Pennsylvania Under tbe free coal sobedults tbe ontpnt of tbe bituminous mines must be decreased That means less wages arid less time. Under the oct in iron and >te-l tho great mills of Pennsylvania would be f-.rced, many of them, to close indefinitely. What is lo become of the employes—the skilled laborers? Under the reduction the carpet mills mnst face havoc and chaos. It is a most alarming state of affairs. What shall he done with this mischievous kill? Can the Republicans in Congress allow it to pass? Can any Democrat from Pennsylvania and other States, where bread and butter and living wages are dependent upon pro taction, vote to sustain tbe Ways and Means Committee's raid upon the nation? —Philadelphia Inquirer. THK conviction of Boss McKane, tbe political autocrat of Coney Island, is a matter of congratulation to all good citi zens, but tbe sentence of thirty days im prisonment and tbe paltry tine of $2 50. is • punishment that hardly fits the crime. McKane's bold defiance of the law to car ry out his political schemes, and his re fasal to recognise tbe injunctions of Judge Barnard, were grave offenses against the most honored institutions of the land, and merited a sentence much more severe. .

A scientific man will listen respectfully to a new theory, because there are many unsolved problems in the universe. But he holds the theory in abeyance until he sees how it works. If it settles a few vex ed questions he will say it is likely to be a true theory; if it settles a large proportion of these questions be will be inclined to adopt it; it it satisfactorily disposes of all the perplexities which he has heretofore encountered he will whistle his old theory j down the.wind and accept the new one without hesitation. His rule is that what produces the best results must needs be true, and when a new theory has been successfully put to that practical test he has no prejudice against an acknowledgment of its claims. Let us give an illustration which is fur nisbed by astronomy. Up to the beginning of the seventeenth century the planetary orbits were supposed to be circles —that is to say, the path around the fun in which all the members of our solar system moved, from Mercury to Xeptune was thought to be circular. There were some difficulties, however, which the circles failed to solve, I and these increased until astronomers were in despair. When Kepler come he declared that the oribts were not circles, but eclipses. Per haps no proposition ever created more as tonishment. It was daring to the edge of rashness, and for some time was held at arm's length. Later on, though., it was discovered that Kepler's theory disposed of all the difficulties which bad a;tended the motion of circular orbits. Experiments were made with it by the score, but it never failed to vindicate itself It worked, it produced results, and from that hour to this it has never been blurred by a doubt. The rule is a good one to apply to society, to civilisation and to religion as well as to astronomy. When we hear of Christianity as a new moral and spiritual theory its beauty and come.iness attract the intellect and move the heart. But we can't fairly judge either of its worth or its truth until we find out what kind of a community, what kind of men and women it can make. Mere arguments are seldom conclusive, for in a debate the brighter or more strate gic mind takes the lead; but when instead of arguments you have facts and can say to the world, "Christianity has done this or that, it has caused the people to create these or those institutions, political or charitable," then you demonstrate its worth or its wortblessness. If it can do the best work then it proves itself true,but ifit fails to do this we are like the astron omers in the time of Copernicus, who were not satisfied with the planetary circle and waited patiently for some new teacher, some Kepler and his ellipse. If we contrast Christianity with Moham medanism or Brahminism, regarding them all as theories of life, the weight of argu ment would be in favor of Christianity, for taken as a whole Christ's teachings are pe culiary unworldly and uplifting But when we place modern Europe by the side of Arabia or India, regarding them as ele ments of bam-in progress, as exponents of the best that can be done by thre« conspic uous forms of religion, argument becomes dumb and the matter is decided by re- suits. In such a competition Christianity has nothing to fear. Whether it be considered as human or divine is just now a matter of secondary importance. We look simply at the prerogatives which men enjoy under it, at the kiDd of ambition whith spurs men to action, at the moral tone of society at large, at the institutions which are the logical consequence of belief in Christ, ut the literature in which the people delight and at the sympathy tor those who are un tortnnate which prevails. Brush tour theological cricds aside and look at Christianity as a dynamic force; measure its influence in the career of any ono who has been consecrated by its spirit; note its encouragement of public and pri vate virtue, its instances on a high stand ard ol honor, its injunction to provide for the helpless and care for the needy, its promise or pledge that when we leave the body we shall take up our residence in "a hou>e not made with hands Then com pare these peculiarities with the general teaching of any other religious system on tho planet, and you will be compelled to admit that in the production of a noble lile Christianity leads all the rest. It is not strange, therefore, that this higher thought was ushered in by an over tore in which angels predicted peace on earth and good will to men. NorueoJ we wonder if He who bore the sacred message from heaven healed the sick or raised the dead by a word ol command. The Person who could project Himself into the life ol eighteen centuries and give shape to more than fifty generations would find an easy task to master the mysteries of disease and death. Wo do well, therefore, to set apart one day in the year thai we may celebrate with songs of praise and family reunions the ad vent of One who brought such glad tidii.gs of great joy.

Washington Notes At the hearing before the Ways and Means Committee, Tuesday, Congressman Dalzell was the only Republican wlio suc ceeded iu having tho Wilson bill amende'd in committee, and he goi in two amend ments, and those quite important. Alter hearing bis argument tin the aluminum question, the duty was raised, as be sug gested, from 15 per cent, ad valorem to 25 In the metal schedule ho succeeded in bay ing the daty on drill rods and steel needles increased from 25 to 35 per cent, ad valor em. This change affects the Kidd Steel Company, of Sbarpsburg, who are engaged in the latter branch of the steel industry. On Monday President Cleveland sent his special message to Congress regarding tho affairs of Hawaii, and in both houses the message and the accompanying reports til Blount and Willis antl the instructions to them were listened to .vith the closest in terest. All that is new in Mr. Cleveland's mes sage is found in the concluding para graphs From these it appears that tho President, iu the iunocuico of his l.eart, instructed Mr Wiilis t"tell Queen Liliou kalani that he would nid in her re.-tora lion provided sho would promise to let by gones I>e bygont s This message deliver ed, Mr. Willis was next to tell the provi sional government that it was "expected to promptly relinquish to the Queen her constitutional authority." In ca-e the Queen agreed to tho. conditions, but if the provisional government refused to surren der, Mr Willis was lo be"gOvernedby pre vious instructions," whatever they were. The Queen told the President to "go to," and now Mr. Cleveland relegates tho en tire matter to Congress, aud assures it that he will bo gratified to co-operate in any plan that will pull hiui out of the hole he is in. That the Queen's refusal arises from an indisposition to "deal gently with the ernug," few deem worthy of serious con sideration The general belief is that sho knows she could not maintain her authori ty a single day, unless backed by United States lorces, aud this support Mr. Cleve land canutit promise her. On To-. «day President Cleveland astoa ished tho Democrats of both Houses by nominating Wayne McVeigh of Pennsyl vania to be Amhusrador to Italy. Major Walker ot Erie, was nominated for U. S. Marshal of Western Pennsylvania. Petrolia Items. The school children held an entertain ment in the Opera House last Friday and Saturday eveniDgs U was well patronized byJthe people, and cleared some fifty dol lars to purchase a Library for the school. The children are enjoying the snow storm a? there is tin school this week. Be tween it and the Christmas tree they have Latdly time to eat. T!.r school teachfeis are attending Ihe Institute Lt Butler this week. Esq Brady is d iwn with tho grip. Mrs. Hughes who hai been sick for some time is improving. X. The Teacher*' Institute. The teacher* ol this county assembled in Annual Convention or Institute last Monday, for the thirty-ninth time-accord ing to the programme. The majority of them came in on the morning trains; some droye in, and as the wneeling was not good that morning, a few walked. We know of one teacher who improved his un derstanding that morning by a ten mile walk, and he arrived in Butler looking as fresh and rosy as usual. Two hundred and eighty-six teachers had their names enrolled that day. The woods of Butler county are full of good teachers, and they all know enough to at tend a goad Institute—Onward and up ward is their motto —Excelsior. That afternoon Aaron Keiber,Esq.,made a plunsing address of welcome to the teach ers and Augustus Black made a talented reply in which he advocated the cause of Temperance. Prof. March led in singing "America," with the audience standing; a recess was taken; and then the regular work of the Institute began Slate Superintendant Schaeffer and Prof. Maltby are doing the practical talking to the teachers, and they are both very pleas iug and interesting instructors; while Dr. Eetler is devoting himself to the mind and soul in a series ol psychical or psycholog ical aldresses which can be absorbed only by the clearest of minds. Teachers who wish to appreciate the Dr's addresses should make sure of not impairing their digeorion, by over eating or late hours while in Butler or they may find them selves afflicted with the phychical blind ness or deafness noted in the dictionary. Of the teachers —Howard Painter, H. S. Gilbert, H.J. Lensner, Jennie Scott, W. B. Campbell, Loyal Hall and J A. Gibson have read or spoken during the week and we beard some of their efforts spoken of very favorably. The evening entertainments have also been satisfactory, and altogether the In stitute has been a valuable and enjoyable oae for the teachers, and creditable to the County and City Superintendants. THE DIRECTORS MEETING. A large number of school directors ot the county were present in the large Court room Wednesday afternoon. S. P. Bowser, the President of the Asso ciation, called them to order, made a short address of welcome, and spoke of the du ties of the office. Dr. Shaffer spoke of the daties of direc tors, the importance of making the term as long as possible; and he spoke very de terminedly against the practice ot holding elections "in school bouses —a practice which prevails in this State but which is prohibited in Ohio aud other States, Ira McJunkin spoke on text books and thinks there is danger in going too tast in the matter. Rev. Breaden spoke of the qualifications and duties of directors. He believes in comfortable school houses; proper books and good teachers; the directors should be patriotic, progressive and big souled men. and tbe teachers should be of gooa moral character; government tails iu tne bauds ot the ignorant and "we must educate or perish." G. D. Swain thought the children should be made to feel their responsibility to the Statu and government. S. F. Bowser was re-elected President; Elliott Koi)b. Vice President, and W. P. Jamison, Sec'y. The Poor Man's Tariff- The necessaries of life, says the Demo cratic Party, are too high. The poor mail cannot afford to pay the prices asked, therefore the duties Bust be reduced ti at he may get what he needs cheaper. Tie result has been that the Democratic Wxys and Means Committee has prepared a tar ff schedule to meet the poor man's needs. We liud accordingly that the duty on dia monds has been reduced twenty-fivo per cent, while they can also under the new tariff import all the marble required to build their palaces at least twenty-five cents per cubic foot loss than under the present tariff, lint this is not all. The duties on cbarn pagi.e and other wines are also to be lower ed, and in order that day laborers may UrinK it in good style the price ot cut glass goblets, wine glasses and decanters is to be lowi red. But even this is not all. W hen the poor man wants to go and hear Patti sing he is to have the privilege of buying his opera glasses at least thirty per cent, lower under the Wilson bill than he could under the IfcKinley bill. The duty on Havana cigar-* will also bo reduced *i 50 per pound, so that he may enjoy his Perfectos at more rea.-ouable prices Then, too, when tie desires to present some church with a stained glass window or two, he will be enabled to do so at a figure at le*bt ten per cent, under the pre. i'iit cost. Ue will also be enabled to buV bis pig imn aud steel rails from three to five dollars a ton less than at present, w liieh means a great saving to him. Tbi-re will »lso be material reductions in lace cm tains, laces of other kinds and embroid eries of other kinds, which the working man's wives and daughters may want to purchase. Silks, velvets, plushes and all the other finery which the poor men are a<-cnst'.:med to put on their wives' backs will lie procurable at materially lower rates under the Wilson bill. Even gold ieaf, silver leaf and locomotives will be made much cheaper to accommodate him. Ic short, a hundred things will be cheapened to meet his needs Anyone can see how this proposed tariff will tavor the poor man. Even wages will be much cheaper, to make them accord more nearly with those ol Europe. After all this, who will dare assert that the new tariff will not be in the interests of the wage earners— ihe poor men. —Lancaster -V cto Era. An Excellent Candidate. The death of General Lilly has cant upon th« Republicans of Pennsylvania the task of leading off in the fight against the Dem o ratio tariff-smashers at Washington. This will he the first Sta o to vote for a Congressman after the report of the Wilson bill, and that vote should be cast with a lull sense of our responsibility to the Re publicans of the whole land. We owe it to the party that onr candidate and our vote should be at once an exponent of Found Republicanism and an unmistakable pledge of Pennsylvania's devotion to the party principles. For these reasons we endorse with great ratisfuction the suggestion that Galusha A. Grow, of Susquehanna county, be select ed to Gil the seat vacated by General Lil ly '« death. The ex Speaker is now an old man, bat we understand be is still active M.d vigorous in mind and body; and ot the robust character of his Republicanism no II .in needs an assurance. His fame as a political leader is wide-spread, and his nomination would be a notice to tho whole cointry that Pennsylvania Republicans stand sqnarcly lor sound currency and for tho effective protection of American indus tries and interests. Wellsboro Agitator. Resolutions of Respect. WHKRKAS, It has pleased our Heavenly Fathe.. according to His wisdom, to take our ceigtibor,friend and director of our Fire Insurance Company, Wm.

Hasinger Frank and John O Hara and Joe Nesbit, all of Indiana, Pa., went out to the woods to kill a few dozen rabbits one day last week They got along pretty well until they struck the farm ot Mr George Row, a mile or two outside of town. Here the dogs along with the hunters, ia atead of attending strictly to business, made a raid on Mr. Row's sheep succeeded, before being chased off. in kill ing a couple of the finest in the fljck Mr Row heard the racket and got to the field in time to be in at the death of tne sheep. The hunters, after the dogs were raken off the sheep, left on short notice; but Mr Kow is a good runner *nd overtook one of them and proposed a basis of settlement, which was that as the hunters would pay $3 75 each all would be torgiven The hoys concluded that the best thing to do was to pay the bill, wnich they did. They aver that the next time they go hunting they will go without dogs, as the other way is a trifle too expensive. There is every indication that the disease known as epiiontic or influenza, now pre vails in this vicinity says the Indiana, i'a.. Messenger. Numbers of horses have re centlj died in the county, and veterinary surgeons are kept busy treating the disease, which seems to be of a peculiarly malig naut character. Dr. Miller advises the greatest care of horses both before and atter being attacked. They should be kept warmly stabled and blanketed in chilly, raw weather; carefully and thoroughly groomed, led with clean hay and grain and the bowels kept in regular condition. Upon the first symptoms of the disease — running at the nose and trembling rigors or chills —prompt medical treatment should be at once commenced. Win. Jones and J. A. Davidson were arrested in Pittsburg, Sunday, and identi fied as the men who robbed the station itgent at Uroveton, They are believed to lie the men wno murdered youug Farrester of Worthiugton. On Monday they admit ted their guilt as to robbing the railroad station but denied all knowledge of Far rester's death. A Heaver woman set a tightly lidded can of water on the stove the other day. When she went to remove it, carrying at the same time a lighted lamp, the can explod ed, tbe fragments striking the lamp uid breaking it.

After her husband had gone to his stables Mrs. tla-er told her four children, who were at oreakfast, that she was going to feed the chickens. A moment later tile crack of « revolver attracted attention, aua the life iess body ot the woman was fouml swing iug from tbe rafter ot an outbuilding. The I.ullut had entered tho right temple and death had been instantaneous. A 16-year old lad named Harry Straw burn, ot Lawrence county, went out hunt iug lately, and not returning at supper time, his family became uneasy, and a searching party was organized to look for him. About 10 o'clock that, night they found his gun leaning against a hollow log in a neighboring woods, and shortly alter his feet were seen protruding form the log An ax was procured, the log was split opt-n aud the boy taken home almost dead. He had wounded a rabbit. It ran into the log and he crawled in alter it, and caught it by the leg When he aitempted to get out he found he was so tightly wedged in tuat ho could not do bo. He soon became uncun.ious and would have died had it not been for the searching party.

OBITUARY NOTES Ex-Congressman John Cessna died at his home in Bedlord on Wednesday night ol last week, alter an illness of about three months, of diabetes insipidus, in his 73rd year. The death of the Hon. John Cessna re i moyes Irom life one the most distinguish ed men of onr State. He died at Bed ford, Pa , his home on the 13ih of this month in the 73d year of his age. For al most a half a century Mr Cessua had been a very active »nd controlling lautor in the politics ol Pennsylvania. In the Legisla ' lure for several >ears and twice the Speak er of the House; twice elected to Congress; p twice the Chairman of the Republican ; State Committee: many times a Delegate i to State and National Conventions, he was ; regarded as one of the brightest aud ablest of all our public men, but withal he was an honest and candid mar, pure in life and ' pure in motive. It is in this respect that the memory of John Cessna should be most 3 cherished and remembered by the people 1 of Pennsylvania. He achieved great fame for bis knowledge of Parliamentary law and certainly he was one of the most apt, quick and able legislators our State has had for many years, but is as a man and a - friend we pay this tribute to his memory, and it is as such that all who knew him will ever remember him.
