Babcock Rep. Boutelle, Senator Quay, Ex Sen ator Tracy, John Dalzell, Gov. Grosvenor, Ex Senator Spooncr, and H. Clay Evans. The next Penn. delegation to Congress will consist of 27 Rep ublicans and 3 Democrats. In the Blair-Bedford district Hicks was elected. In the Crawford- Erie district Sturtfvant beat Sib ley by 500. In the contest for Sheriff of Philadelphia county —the con test that added one column to our ticket and came near adding two —Crow was elected over Ashbridge by 20,000. CONGRESS The next Congress will stand about two to one Republican, and in the Senate the Republicans will probably have a majority over the combined Democrats and Populists. Bitter For Altgeld. The Republican state central commit tee of Illinois issued the following: "To the Citizens of Illinois: "The Republican state central com mittee congratulate you on your action at the polls to-day, which places the western empire state at tha head of the list of the honest and law abiding com monwealths in the union. The election of Gov. Tanner by a pluraltiy equal to the wonderful strength of the idol of protection, is a tribute lo his worth and a declaration that the ptcple of Illinois know he will give them a good adminio tration. Wc possibly return a solid dele gation to the lower house of congress to support the I'rcsident elect in a policy which will benefit the whole country, and secure a legislature which wi!l send to the senate a Republican in place of Gen lolin M. l'almer. The verdict will be received with joy by the entire Nation because the defeat of Al'geld ami his heresy of antagonism to the court was no» less important than the rebuke to the free silver heresy. Illinois stands proudly before the civilized world as leading the advance guard in the batt'e for the great principles for which the Republican party fights. "C. P.

Up to Monday of this week our com missioners had received no word re garding the tax in school bonds, but the following from the Pittsburg I>is patcll of butt Friday, indicates that a move in being made in that direction: "The State officials at Harrisburg hnve made a move on the lionds issued by the various sub-school districts of the State. They propose to collect a Stat - tax on all the school bonds issued in Pennsylvania. County Solicitor N. S. William-, has just received a letter froin the Attorney' #eneral notifying him to instruct the County Commissioners to list all school t bond:. for taxation. Similar noti< es has been «ent to the proper officers of all the countie, in the State. Another move is also being made on the other sid". It is claimed that school districts have no authority to pay iaxi . on their own bonds ami that school bond* should b- exempt or else the holders will have to pay the tax "whether th• .e is a contract to the contrary or not. New blanks issued from Hurri . <urg for the tax payers to make a return of per urinal property were received by the County Commissioners a few I'ays ago. They contain a new clause that iias never appeared in the direction heretofore given. It i. that the t xpiycr must make a return of any bonds he may hold issued by any vhool district of Pennsyl vania. Heretofore no reference ha . been made to a return of Pennsylvania school bond . As a consequence, very few of the hoi era of bunds who live in Pennsylvania ; have made a report of bonds they held, J and paid no ta* oil them. A few who , did repott them were taxed without any I comment being made, but the majority 1 escaped. Clerk 11. T. Rowley, of the Coinmis | (doners office, made inquiries at Harris j leirx regarding the new instructions, and ' was informed that under the new law a I tax must be paid on interest bearing 1 fcliool bonds, persons living outside of iof Pennsylvania, however, cannot l»e j compelled to pay a tax here on bonds ( they may hold. j The main pt.rpose >f the State authori ties, however, is to keep do er tab on the school districts that issue bond with a clan < providing that the district is'.u ing them will pay all taxes on them. A question lias been raised on thin, how ever, that will likely result In a test suit and may caure all school bonds to be declared exempt from State taxation. Thk remains of the late George Du- Maurier were cremated, in compliance with directions left by him. This fact has directed intention to the increasing use «f this process for disposing of the body. Sensibly considered, it is no more objectionable than inhumation. Sooner or later the body must return to air and earth. It is merely a question whether the wormi. .ball eat us or whether we nliall undergo the same process by the quicker agency of fire. Viewed from a sanitary point, incineration lias every ad vantage over burial in the earth. The contamination of water supplies by de composing bodies is a rccoginized fact. The number in favor of creaiuation slow ly increase . The late Kate Pield directed her remains to be cremated. Julia Mar lowe Tuber has made provision in her will for cremation. Among tho'e who have declared in favor of the fire process are Klla Wheeler Wilcox, Marshall P. Wilder, I)r. 1). S.

A notable case has jnst been decided by the Supreme C' urt of Illinois, where two young bankers must serve a term in the penitentiary because the bank which they inherited from their father was in solvent.
