THE ADAMS FIASCO.
The enforced retirement of Josiah R.
Adams of Philadelphia from the Repub
lican sUte ticket, as the candidate of
the party for Superior Jndge,on account
of the exposure of his connection with
some swindling investment companies,
is one of those unfortunate political in
cidents that the least said about, under
the circumstances, the better.
The only funny part of the affair was
the action of Frank Torrance, the Alle
gheny politician in whose interest
the original specifications for our Poor
Honse were written, rushing down to
Philadelphia and trying to have the
State Committee substitute the name of
John M. Greer for that of Adams—as
though that would have bettered the
matter.
Wiser counsels, however, prevailed,
and John I. Mitchell of Wellsboro, an
honest man and independent Republi
can was selected for the place —and the
personal of our state ticket is now un
objectional and worthy of support.
Mr. Mitchell's political career has
been a rather remarkable one. He has
always been independent in his words
and actions; has served in the Legisla
ture, in Congress and in the U. S. Sen
ate, and is now President Judge of Ti
oga county, and this is the second time
the crowd have gone to
"him when their actions made trouble
for the party.
County Chairman Wife and candi
dates McGarvey, Gillespie, McCollough.
Rankin and Turner drove to Porters
ville Thursday, thence southward
through Harmony and Zelienople to
Ogle, thence to Evans City and back to
Butler Saturday evening. At the dif
ferent stopping places they held meet
ings with the township and borough
committees. Monday reinforced by
Messrs Hoon and Adams they started
on a tour of the northern part of the
county. Reports from all points jnstify
the prediction of a complete Republican
victory. _
TOBACCO growers and manufacturers
are demanding a Constitutional amend
ment creating a colonial system of
government for Cuba, Porto Rico and
the Philippines. At present a heavy
tarriff on tobacco imports from these
islands nets Uncle Sam $76,000,000 per
year. If they are taken in ns territories
or states, they will have the right of
free commerce with the rest of the
United States, this reyenue will be lost
and our tobacco men clai m they will be
ruined.
WAR IN AFRICA.
On Thursday it was reported that the
Boers had assaulted Mafeking and had
been repulsed and that the „British had
Inred them over some dynamite mines,
and killed 1500 of them. This report
was not believed and was not confirm
ed. The British have established a
press censorship.
On Friday it was reported that Vry
burg on the west border had surrender
ed to the Boers, and a cavalry engag
ment was reported at Ladysmith on the
East border; also that the Boers had at
tacked Glencoe Camp on the East bord
er and had been defeated with heavy
loss.
COn Saturday a victory for the British
was reported from Glencoe. The British
artillery silenced that of the Boers an
Smith's bill and then the English regi
ments charged the hill and captured it,
with the loss of !>2 officers and men kill
ed, and 151 wounded—the loss in officers
being especially heavy. The Boers re
treated leaving their dead and wounded
behind and a squadron of Hussars who
followed them were missing, and it was
feared they had been drawn into a trap.
President Kruger ordered the complete
evacuation of Johannesburg, the centre
of the gold mining district,and it was be
tieved he intended destroying the town.
Two American newspaper men were re
ported captured by the Boers
On Sunday another victory for the
English was reported at Elandsluagte,
and the Boers were said to be shelling
Dnndee.
On Monday the Boers were reiKjrted
to be attacking both Glencoe and Dun
dee, they outnumbered the English and
had forced them back, and the situation
was said to be serious for the British.
On Tuesday the British General Yule
abandoned Glencoe and Dundee,and re
treating southward, joined his forces to
those of Gen. White at Ladysinith On
the western border both Mafeking anil
Kimberly were surrounded by the
Boers.
Yesterday it was belieyed in England
that there had been a battle and that
the news was being held back.
AT the session of the British Parlia
ment last Friday, ten million pounds
were voted to carry on the war in
Afr _-a. There was opposition, how
ever, and William Redmond, Parnellite,
contrasted the attitude of Great Britiau
toward Venezuela with her attitude to
ward the Transvaal. ,- In the former
case." he said, "the United States an
nounced that Great Britain would have
to arbitrate, and the British lion went
to sleep. There has been no arbitration
with the Transvaal, because the Trans
vaal has no neighbor like the United
States. "
OFF Sandy Hook, last Friday, the
Columbia again beat the Shamrock over
a thirty mile course, by minutes, in
a strong gale, and the ' cup' that the
old America won in the English Chan
nel forty-eight years ago will stay here.
THE U. S. transport "Senator" ar
rived at San Francisco, Sunday, with
an lowa regiment from Manila. Another
vessel that sailed from the same port
about the same time encounted a ty
phoon, and there were some fears as to
the safety of the "Senator. "

Goklcn Wedding in LaiM-aslcr
Township.
On Oct. 10th INiM), occurred the gold
en wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Henry
Rice of Lancaster twp.. at their beauti
ful home, about a mile north of Mid
dle Lancaster. The day was of the tin
est and everything was most favorable.
About 10 o'clock thirty five of the
friends and neighbors assembled at one
time, and as it was truly on unexpected
party it was indeed a surprise to Mr.
and Mrs. Rice.
Mrs. Rice felt rather bad to be sur
prised on such an occasion, hut soon
cheered up and became most merry.
Friends and neighbors kept arriving
until two hundred hail assembled At
about 13:30 a most sumptous dinner was
served sufficient for ail aud abundance
to spare.
Nothing occurred to cause any ova
tion of any kind, the young folks amus
ed themselves with different games and
the men pitched quoits for their amuse
ment. At 3p.m. they were called to
gether by W. 1. Scott who made a
speech in which he introduced B. M.
Heckert of Whitestown, who made the
speech of the day in behalf of Mr. and
Mrs. Rice. Mr Heckert, in his good
humored way and pleasant manner,
made an excellent speech, not lengthy,
yet it covered a great deal of ground as
he spoke to the point, at the close of
which he was loudly applauded.
Then came an old fashioned serenade
by the ladies, after which a short speech
was made by Mrn JMM MM Hr . and
three rousing cheers for the serenaders.
Then some excellent music was render
ed by Miss Bella Met/, and Mr. lleckeit,
assisted by the young folks; then Mrs
John Rice led the ladies to the barn
where they had an old fashioned husk
ing bee and it was very amusing to see
the ladies sheck the corn.
At about 4:30 the folks began to dis
perse and all went home feeling they
never had spent a more pleasant day.
Last, but not least, came the ball of
the evening, which was an excellent
feature, about sixty of the lads and las
sies tripped the light fantastic to their
hearts content.
Mr. and Mrs. Rice are in excellent
health, they are very hospitable people
and the poor and needy baveneyerlteen
turned away from their door. And for
people of their age yea could not meet
more pleasant neople. Nine children
bless their family circle, all of whoui
are living, and we wish Mr. and Mrs.
Rice a more pleasant future even than
their past lias been.
