POLITICAL.
The Post says that the -'Democrats
Won" in the Democratic Convention of
Allegheny Co. last week. The conven
tion endorsed Robb, a Republican for
Judge, and there promises to be a
"warm time"' in Allegheny Co., this
Fall.
Summers M. Jack, of Indiana was
nominated for Congress by the Twen
ty-first district Republican conference
on Wednesday of last week on the 43d
ballot. At the forenoon session eight
ballots were taken, but these proved
mere skirmishes. Only one ballot was
necessary in the afternoon. W hen the
roll was called Westmoreland, first on
the list, cast three votes for Robbins:
then Clearfield broke away from the
Westmorelander and voted three for
Jack. Indiana fallowed suit, giving
the Indiana man nine votes to three for
Robbins.
At the Democratic county convention
held in New Castle last week Jessie J.
Dean, an old Republican, was placed on
the Democratic ticket for the Legisla
ture.
At Altoona one of the Democratic
nominees for the Legislature withdrew,
and the convention substituted a man
named by the Wanamaker Republi
cans.

New York Voice.
The doctor said he would be at his
office all next day and also Tuesday,
when it would be his pleasure to accept
and acknowledge service of summons.

OUR BOYS IN CAMP.
Ce. E, 15th Regiment, Fort
Washington, Md.
SEPT. 5, 1898.
The 15th Regiment expects to receive
its August pay Tuesday, and to start
for Camp Meade, Middletown, Pa.,
Thursday. Onr good things seem to be
coming all in a bunch. Maj. Crawford
announced at dress parade Friday even
ing that we would move in a few days,
and then later in the evening orders
came to move Thursday. Rumors are
called "bags" here and the "latest bag
is that we will maieh from camp to
Washington inHyC&vymarching orderin
stead of the boat. This brings
the progolnof blisters and sore should
bae is that we will IK*
■"Blustered out at Middletown and that
recruiting officers will be there to en
list those who wish to continue in the
service into the regular army. This
Strikes us as being a good arrangement.
It will give those warlike spirits who
are so anxious to go to Cuba after Spain
has surrendered a chance to get there.
Then they can drill and do guard duty
and the mean little police and fatigue
jobs for three long happy years. They
can fill some "little god's" water bar
rels, cut his grass, clean his walks, and
chop Lis kindling wood to their hearts'
content. Strenge it is that some who
expressed the greatest dislike for the
aboved named chores very loudly ex
pressed themselves in favor of doing
garrison duty for the full term of our
enlistments. How do they make two
snch expressions agree?
The court martial proceedings for
writing letters for publication were
not pushed in either case. No charges
were preferred within ten dr.ys after
arrest and the cases thus went by de
fault. Of course the writers are deeply
penitent for partly expressing them
selves openly about their superiors!
There are several names on Co. E's
sick roll at present, most of them for
malaria, but none of the cases are at all
serious. Walter McCormick, who ha.?
been sick, will start for Butler within
the next few days. Will Sutton and
Fred Roessing went Saturday. Rob.
Adama and Ed. Livingstone went last
Thursday.
Privates Green, Ritter, Watson, Beat
tv and C. E. Smith have returned from
their visits home. Howard Marshall of
Butler, came in. with Smith yesterday
and experienced a camp Sunday.
Armstrong, of Pittsburg, and June
Sutton spent a few days with ns last
week. They found it very pleasant to
stretch out on our downy pine boards and
be lulled to sleep by our mosquito at
tendants. Those who return from visits
home say they sleep more sonndly on
the tent floors than in the soft beds they
nsed a long time ago.
Sunday morning Mr. Howe conduct
ed church services in the giove. In the
afternoon the Battery boys, assisted by
Kid Williams of Butler's '97 club, play
ed a ball game with Co. A The score
stood 9t09 at the end of the ninth in
ning and the game ended in a dispute
in the tenth. "Kid" struck ten men
out during the last four innings.

Schley at Han Juan.
The transport Seneca, carrying Rear
Admiral W. S. Schley and Brig. Gen.
W. W. Gordon, of the Porto Rico mili
tary commission, arrived at San Juan,
Porto Rico Monday night. Next morn
ing a boat from the New Orleans took

an enthusiastic reception on board the
New Oreleans.
The Seneca brought also the postal
commission, 3D nurses and six contract
surgeons. The Seneca went to Ponce.

Unnecessary. About 4 o'clock Gen.
Brooke arrived from Rio Piedraa, and
the three commissioners, all of whom
are ranked by Capt. Gen. Macias, made
a call upon him.
It is reported that the Spanish com
missioners expect considerable compen
sation for the Spanish property to bo
relinquished.

Britain's Flag Over Khartoum
London. September 5.
The War Office received this evening
the following dispatch, dated atOmdnr
man yesterday, from the Sirdar, Gen.
Sir Herbert Kitchener:
This morning the British and Egyp
tian flags were hoisted with due cere
mony upon the walls of the Saraya (the
palace) in Khartoum.
"All the British wounded have left
for Abadia in barges towed by steam
ers. I saw them before leaving. They
were all doing well and were comfort
able.
The calvary sent in pursuit of the
Khalifa were compelled to abandon the
attempt, owing to the exhaustion of the
horses, but I have ordered camel squads
to continue the pursuit.
IN Switzerland they have commenced
making phonographic clocks and
watches which, it appears, leave any
thing heretofore accomplished far in
the shade. By merely pressing the but
ton of the new timepiece, it pronounces
the hour distinctly. The alarms call to
the sleeper: "It s six o'clock; get up.
There are some which even add the
words: "Now don't go to sleep again.
The form can be changed to suit the
buyer and make the warning more or
less emphatic. This application of the
phonographic principle is due to a
French watch maker settled in Geneva.
He introduces into clocks and watches
little slabs of valcanized rubber, on
which the desired words are traced in
grooves corresponding to the hours and
fractions of hours.

A Genius in Advertising.
"When I was a youngster, say of 21,"
remarked the veteran journalist of a
western city to a Washington "Star re
porter. "I was the editor of a countrv
paper in a town of 5,000 people, and
having liyed for a year in New York I
had an idea that I was really the only
person in town who knew anything. I
had a pretty hard time making things
come my way, but youth and enter-
nrise are hard to down, and I kept at it.
There was one firm in town, Smith
Brothers, which was the strongest and
most conservative there, and I knew an
advertisement from them would be the
making of me, but they were very slow
in letting me have it. However, I per
sisted until at last I had it in my
clutches, and I grasp it as a drowning
man grasps at a life preserver, Ibe
senior partner, who was a most aus
tere and particular old chap, and a dea
con into the bargain, was anxious to
impiess nie with the fact that the\
were doing a great deal for me, and I
must return value received. All of
which I agreed to do, and then the old
gentleman surprised me by teiling nie
he would give me the copy and leave it
to my new-fangled notions, as he called
them, to make up an ad. that would
show the Smith Brothers to be as pro
gressive and ready to meet the modern
ideas as well as any other merchants in
town. This was more than I conld
have asked for if they had begged me
to do so. and 1 went out of the place al
most shouting. When I reached my
office I read the copy over again to find
its strong points of display. It was as
follows, far I never can forget it:
•Smith Brothers, the well known deal
ers in groceries, are pleased to make the
announcement that they are in receipt
of the biggest stock of canned goods
ever seen here, and they will be told at
prices hitherto unknown Some adver
tisers may be liars, bnt Smith Brothers
are happy in knowing that they have
a reputation for veracity which is
worth more to them than gold.
"That was good, plait) stuff, with not
much \jf a margin visible for the play of
my versatile fancy, but I was expected
to do something that would attract at
tention. for the old gentleman had been
especially strong on that point. He was
tired of the plainly severe, he said, and
wanted somthing that wofild not fail to
stir things up. I sat up more than half
the night with that copy, and when
morning came I had it all in shape to
fill a column, the amount of space he
wanted it to occupy, Hti Mr} ffle, when
he gave me the copy, that if he didn t
get around to see the proof, just to let
it go and take the chances, which I did
when he didn't ,ij)Msr, and when the
paper came out, there, IU ill," biggest
and blackest letters I conld set up. was
this advertisement for a full column on
the first page*

but Smith Brothers are happy

"Well, when the Smith Brothers saw
that ad. fairly shouting to them and at
them and rtbosf them, they were the
maddest men you eve. »aw ( and they
were only restrained by their religion
from shooting me on the spot. How
ever, ihay s!?ed me in spite of all my
defense of the attr«utivv?,qualities of the
display, and I would have gone «.•< tic

that before the tim* ~f hearing the suit
the ad. had actually given liiliith
Brothers a boom that almost frighten

and though they never repeated the ad.
and always made me submit matter be
fore it was printed, we became great
friends, and each of 11s did much for
the other in financial and other ways. "

The popular idea that Porto Rico is a

pounds, but am so weak that I eanhard

A Pleasant Surprise.
At an early hour, Saturday August
27th a most fitting day. the friends and
relatives ot' Mr. Peter Ifft began to gath
er at his house in Franklin township.
Although much surprised Mr Ifft
soon recognized it to be the sixtieth an
nuversary of his birth and the fifty-fifth
anniversary of the birth of his better
half Mrs. Ifft. After a large crowd had
assembled and a warm greeting had been
extended to all by Mr. Ifft and family
a large table was ladened with that
which is necessary for the sustenance
of life. The people having gathered
around the table Rev. E. C. Shu
maker gave thanks to Almighty God
for the preservation of our lives and the
continuation of his goodness toward us.
after which all joined in the repast and
the pangs of hunger were soon satisfied.
Everyone had begun to enjoy them
selves in a sociable way when they were
called to order by W. B. Currie, Mr. I.
R. Brannan acting as chairman, they
then listened to a few well rendered ad
dresses those to be most mentioned be
ing delivered by Willis A. McCall and
Rev. E. C. Shniuaker, all speakinghigh
lv of Mr. Ifft and family as citizens and
of the benefits derived from such meet
ings in the way of cultivating socialism
and patriotism". Some delightful music
consisting of familiar hymns and na
tional airs was furnished hy a choir of
young folks.
When the exercises were ended the
men joined in an exciting game of ball
the principal features of which were the
twirling of the sphere by Rev. Shuina
ker, the heavy hitting of Mike Fair,
and the base running of .Tames Wilson.
After the ball game was ended all re
turned home thinking that the day had

farms and the building of better roads
was tl|p destruction of the machine,
which ho declared to I/O opppsed to im

Under twenty distinct captions the
speaker enumerated what he called the
machine allies. Until within four or
five years ago he would not have be
lieved its great, but he hail
gathered the facts for presei.tit'i' i' i"
an effort to give the state better govern
merit. He predicted the downfall of
the ujiicljine; told his hearers
the power to destroy lay
within their power; advanc
ed arguments showing the machine to
be inimical to the interests of good gov
ernment, and said that in a period of
twenty years sa,oo<U)<)o o~ thy »>tajey
money had been squandered; money
that would have relieved the common
people of a part of their burden of tax

the building of the best kind of roads.

i 'oliiiifiicait t rniunal legislation, j
In the contention which has arisen
ovt-r the extradition of Mrs. Ilotkin. the
alleged poisoner of two women in Dela
ware. the delinquency of the legislation
for criminal correction in this country ,
stands revealed. The case against the j
California woman seems to be com
pletely established. The circumstantial
evidence against her is overwhelming i
; But the chances are that she will escape I
punishment, and even avoid trial, but
invoking in her behalf a legal techni- |
cality.
It seems that the rule of American j
| jurisprudence, with reference to the j
| extradition of accused criminals from I
I one state to another, is limited within
' close lines. That is to say. in order to |
i bring an accused person within extra I
1 di table conditions, it must be shown
that such person was within the state
| making the claim, committed the crime
i while there and surreptitiously departed
| a fugitive from justice. As in this case,
the criminal agent was transmitted by
mail and the accused was not in the
state in which the poisoning occurred at
the time it occurred, it is held that she
is not amenable to the extradition laws,
and if that be true, she cannot be
brought ro trial, conviction or punish
ment.
'I he principles of law which give the
accused the benefit of every doubt and
holds the prisoner innocent until proved
guilt}- are no doubt just and wise. But
there ought to be some guarantee that
criminals will be brought tn justice and
punishment, and a way provided to
bring to trial those who are palpably
guilty. The criminal codes in all the
states are defective, but this delin
quency in the extradition laws is the
most glaring thus far brought into
public notice.—Pittsburg News.
THE success of the Trans-Mississippi
and International Exposition, at Oma
ha. is no longer prospective. Since
July 1 nearly 1.000,000 people have pas
sed through its gates to enjoy this
splendid creation of Western thrift and
enterprise. Second only to the World's
Fair in the multitude and excellence of
its exhibits, it rivals it in harmony of
architectural conception and scenic de
velopment. The promoters are certain
ly justified in their belief that the suc
cess of the enterprise gives promise of
a broader prosperity for the great West.

years.
The departure from this earth of a
soul so pure seems to require that the
living should pay a tribute of public re
spect to her memory. To those who
knew her. and knew her best, it was as
if death's call had but relieved a spirit
already so purified as to wing its flight
straightway into the arms of her blessed
Savior. Well is it in this earthly vale
of tears that the bereaved are vouchsaf
ed by kindlv Providence a glimpse into
the mysterious beyond a look into the
eternal beauties behind the gates ajar
when weeping eyes, in God's own faith,
may behold the loved and lost caught
up at Heaven's verv portals and carried
thence into the everlasting joys prepar
ed for those who have truly loved and
served the Divine Master. It softens
hardness of heart; it sweetens bitterness
of spirit: it refreshens weariness of life;
it sustains weakness of faith; it bright
ens dimness of hope, and it awakens
sleepfulness of charity. Truly hath it
been said it is not all of life to live —it
is not all of death to die. For the life
and the death of the righteous exercise
a majestic power over the souls of those
who witness them, and it endows them
with a wealth of riches compared with
which the dross of earth is of no ac
count.
There are many in Butler to whom
the tidings of her death brought a
shock of sorrow; and there were others
in Butler who. doubtless ere this, have
greeted her in the spirit land. These
all were loving cotemporaries; and
they all remember how. long ago
when Judge McClure and his family
would spend a portion of the summer
there, sweet ties of friendship were knit
which only strengthened with the on
rolling years, until one by one the
friends of other days are being called
thitherward. Those who are still left
may drop a silent tear from ageing eyes
as they think of the golden sunshine
and the blue bending skies when in
youth these loves were formed.
To those who were intertwined with
her by family ties this death means
crushing sorrow. Thanks be to God,
that in His merciful providence He per
mits her dear watchful spirit to steal
away when the shadows of the evening
came on, and to draw so near that one's
hand may reach out and almost touch
it. This holy presence stays the misery
of such sorrow: it bridges over the
awful chasm between the living and
the dead; it mellows the heart, and in
spires it with charity, and endows it
with hope- and filld it with abiding
faith that somehow when the cares ot
earth shall have been laid aside for
good, and when its trials and temp
tations shall have been finally over
ridden through God's sweet mercy
sought and gained at the instigation of
the memory of this dear departed soul,
there will be a full reunion beyond
the everlasting gates where time shall
be a forbidden guest.
