JOHN L. JONES 9. - —— HAKKISBUITG. The famous Bird Book' case afford ed much amusement for the grave Jus tices of the Supreme Court in Harris burg. Monday. Both sides interjected much humor into the argument by their remarks on certain features of the document. Attorney General El kin represented the Commonwealth and ex- Attorney General Hensel and ex-Speak er Walton appeared for ex-State Print er Bnsch. Mr Elkin told the court how the book had been padded by ex State Economic Zoologist Warren from a pamphlet of 128 pages, with two illustrations, at a cost to the State of $488.24. to a docu ment of oyer 600 pages at a cost of 606.85. He showed that the Superin tendent of Printing had never seen the copy furnished by Dr. Warren for the pubUcation. and that he never furnish ed any order for the procuring of the numerous plates, which alone cost *•>■>- 337 39. Mr. Hensel exposed the loose manner ' in which the State printing is conduct ed, and proved that a written order for the work had l>een given by ex-Superin tendent of Public Printing Robinson. He said that the superintendent very seldom takes the time to examine the copy or documents furnished him by the departments. If this contention does nothing else it may lead to a reform in the State print ing. The work is supposed to be done under the direction of a superintendent at a salary of |2,000 a year, with a clerk who is paid SI,OOO. Captain Thomas G. Sample, of Allegheny, is the superin tendent, and it is doubtful if he spends more than three days a month at his office. The work is left to his clerk aud the State Printer, who docs the printing and binding by contract and does practi cally as he pleases. Governor and Mrs. Stone entertained the Judges of the Supreme Court at din ner Tuesday evening at the Executive Mansion. The large dining room was beautifully decorated with choice flow ers and plants from the Capitol Park Conservatory. This was the Govern or's first dinner to the court, and the last at the mansion at which Chief J ns tice Sterrett will attend in his official capacity He will retire from the bench next January, and he is now holding his final court in the Middle dis trict. The Court heard arguments that day in a number of cases in order that ' it might clear the calendar as quickly as Z' possible and get away from Harrisbnrg. Coveis were laid at the dinner for 23. In the Supreme Court party were Chief Justice Sterrett, Associate Justices Breen, McCullon, Mitchell, Dean and Fell; Prothonotary William Pearson, of Harrisbnrg; Reporter William C. Kress, of Lock Haven, and Assistant Reporter Edward P. Allinson, of Philadelphia. There were also present Secretary Griest, Attorney General Elkin, Dep uty Secretary of the Commonwealth Beitler, Deputy Attorney General Fleitz, Private Secretary Gerwig, Judge John B. McPherson, of the United States District Court, Philadel phia; Judges Simonton and Weiss, of Harrisburg; Peter A. B. Widener, of Philadelphia; Lyman D. Gilbert aud. Congressman Olmstead, of Harrisburg; W. P. Potter, of Pittsburg, and Dr I). Percy Hickling, of Washington. On Wednesday informations were made before Alderman Maurer against certain persons charged with conspir acy. perjury and corrupt solicitation in connection with the contest for United States Senator and the consideration of the McCarrell jury bill in the recent Legislature. The informations were prepared by Charles H. Bergner, pri vate counsel for the House Prosecuting committee, and are based on the testi mony taken before the Legislative committee and its rejwrts to the House of Representatives. THE great Peace Conference at The Hague is studying over the propositions submitted by the Czar of Russia. Middle tow 11. A little child belonging to Dale liarn hart, of Greece City, died on last Fri day and was buried in Zion Cemetery on Sunday. The usual annual memorial services were held at Concord 011 Tuesday a. m. and at Zion church in the afternoon. The veterans assembled at the Grange Hall in Middletown and marched in a body to Concord Cemetery aud after decorating the graves of the fallen heroes who slnmber there; repaired to the church where a vast concourse had assembled to hear and to take part in the lurther ceremonies of the day. After the rendition of an appropriate , patrotic song, Rev. Alter invoked the divine blessing. Pres. Lincoln's ad dress at Gettysburg was re;ui by Cor poral Black, Prof. Harper sang • 'Some body's darling" and the orator of the day, John W. Coulter, of Butler, was introduced to the andience who in an able manner spoke of the origin of me morial day and of the Kreat principles involved in its proper observance, the lessons to be learned therefrom, the cost in blood and treasure, of the rebel lion to our union, and concluded by a graphic comparison and illustration of the gTeat and wonderful resources of our country and of the necessity of patriotic action on the part of all the people. A selection by the choir and a song from Prof Harj>er completed the exercises of the forenoon. The veterans then proceeded to Zion Cemetery where the graves of the soldiers buried there were visited and properly decorated. Prof. W. P. Day, of Peachville. made the memorial address to the crowd gathered at Zion church. Taken as a whole the exercises of the day were pleasant, profitable and entertaining. The exercises of the day culminated in the evening at Concord church where the members of the G A R attended in a body to witness the entertainment given by the young people j„ j,<>nor 0 f the occasion. The District S. S. Convention met in Concord church last week with a good attendance and full force of workers present. A prominent feature of the occasion was the address of Rev. Wor rell, of Butler, in the evening. The session was highly enjoyed by all pres ent and no doubt many useful lessons were learned that will be reduced to practice in future work, Commencement \\ eek.

Composed 1 y Misses Estelle Heydrick, Myrtle Younkins. and Jessie Cornelius. ] From the H" S halls we're wending. Where we've worked so hard and long. And we join with voices blending In one glad and joyful song. Three long years we've toiled together. Through bright and glcomdays: Bnt our ties we now must sever. As we go our sep'rate ways. We have reached the goal we strove for Our weary race is run; Yet our striving is not over For the battle's just begun. When the storms of life o'ertake 11s. And the thorns obscure the flowers. When life's pleasures all forsake us We'll recall those happy hours Though life's burden bears upon us Weighing down the mind and heart. Though obstructions lie before us May our courage ne'r depart Standing firm amidst the conflict. That, at last the battle o'er. We shall all be laureled victors. And rejoice forever-more. Change in Civil Service Itules. A dispatch from Washington, dated Monday, said. • The real friends of the President,and true civil service reform exponents give distinct expression of their disappoint ment over the yielding to the clamor of practical politicians and office-seekers, betrayed by the official signing of the new civil service order today. It will }>e several days before the Civil Service Commissioners themselves can figure out from the complex modifications just how far the re.-toration to the collection of spoils has gone. It is said that 5,000 places alone are affected, but the dragnet provision in regard to transfers, and to restorations after displacement when the force is re duced furnishes a new loophole for in troducing friends into the service with out regard to competency. Some bitter comments are heard on the generalizing language employed in alleging reasons for abandoning the barriers that had been set up. Civil service upholders argue that whereas it was conceded that fiduciary positions should be exempted, the amendments include places styled as such, which are not known to the law which affixes their salaries. For instance, there is no law for private secretaries to United States Attorneys, but the order exempts some clerk who will be unofficially given this title Commissioner Proctor, of the Civil Service Commission was not snpplied with a copy of the order until 1 p. m. He regards large portions of it as un satisfactory He says that the President last June received some recommenda tions aa to d. sired amendments in the rules, but no attention was given, and since the Commission h,is never been consulted. The order was promulgated without any notice to the Commission, which must execute it and be controlled by its relaxed provisions. N1; K; 111;< ni 11< »oi > notks.

A terrible storm paeecd over south western Pennsylvania. Monday after noon —wrecking houses and killing people in Pitt-burg and vicinity, and doing damage in Leechburg, Connel lsulle, Uniontown and other places. A sensation was created in the Pres byterian church of Grove City, last Sunday, by Joseph Gordon, a prominent member of the cnnrch and a teacher in the Snnda> school, who jumped to his feet in the middle of a sermon by the pastor, Rev. Dr. W. J. McConkey, and made a speech opposing the views pre sented by Dr. McConkey. The pastor in his sermon argued that it was an im possibility for the ordinary man to live without sinning. When the minister began preaching Gordon became rest less, and finally, when the sermon was about half over, he jumped to his feet, saying. "Brother, just one moment. Any one who would preach like that has never been sanctified or redeemed, and should fall at the foot of the cross and call' Unclean, unclean. '' Gordon then continued to upbraid the pastor for his utterances. Some of the church elders arose and started toward Gordon, who subsided, however, before they reached hiiu. Dr. McConkey then said: "You people all know this brother, if" I have not been preaching salvation aj:d the goipel of Jesus Christ, 1 beg your pardon and hope you will all pray for me." He tneo finished his sermon. In the afternoon Gordon attended a meet ing of the Salvation army in the park, where he made an address, in which he attacked the local ministers, saying many of the doctrines they taught were the result of ignorance, and advising the people to pay 110 attention to their teachings, as they lacked sanctification. In his attacks both in the church and in the park Gordon was supported by two or three women. Sarvcr Station. Mrs. Valley and Miss Pearl Hessel gesser were visiting Mrs. Philip Drauo. on Tuesday.

During the civil war Mr J. J Hib | bier, now a resident of Springfield. | Mo., was living in Hubbard. O. At that time silver money was very scarce, ' as many an old veteran will remember, and Mr. llibbler one day had a half dol lar stamped, "J. J. Hibbler, Hubbard, Ohio," just for a pocket piece. It was dated 1*53. A fter carrying it for some time he lost it and the fact worried him not a little. Somehow he always had a presentment that he would again see that halt' dollar. Mr. Hibbler came lo Missouri years ago, but still he often thought of his lost pocket piece, and as years flew by he was more anxious than ever to gain possession of it. and the other day he did. He was in a restaurant, eating his dinner, when Mr. Charles Schneider came in He told Mr. Hibbler that there was a half dollar at his store with his name and Hubbard. Ohio, stamped ' on it. Of course Hibbler knew at once just what half dollar Schneider meant, and without finishing his dinner he hurried to the store, where Mr. Schneider willingly exchanged it for one of Uncle Sam's half dollars that was not a pocket piece. Mr. Schneider does not know who gave him the money, as he did not notice it at the time. —Kansas City Journal. The Land ol" "Pretty Soon." I know a land where the streets are paved With the things wb.i<-h we meant to achieve. It is walled with the money we meant to have saved; And the pleasures for which we grieve.

He was a man of more than ordinary intelligence and a good citizen. OBITUARY. Controller Henry I. Gourley of Pitts burg, who died last Saturday, spent his boyhood in the vicinity of Bakerstown. His father died and he was placed with ; a farmer of Pine township named Logan. : There he was raised as a farmer. He j worked hard and studied at night; the school terms were short and the teach ers poor. After 12 years on the Logan farm Mr. Gourley felt that he had dis charged his obligations to his foster parents and he determined to strike out for himself. He earned *2O by splitting rails and with this attended Wither spoon institute, at Bntler. for one term. After the school term closed he went back to the farmer and worked harder than ever, determined that he would secure an education. ; 1831 ''''the' 1899 mm Giuiiiii Hie ONLY Agriniliural INDISPENSABLE TO ALL COUNTRY RESIDENTS WHO WISH TO KEEP UP WITH THE TIMES.
