We have the mildest winter that I have seen since 1 am here. We had snow twice to whiten the ground and then sleet and snow, but we are having fine weather now." Mr. Driggs of the Congressional Committee, investigating the hazing at West Point characterized the abase of the fourth class men or plebes there as, atrocious, base, detestable, disgrace ful, dishonorable, disreputable, hein ous ignominious, ill famed, nefar ious, odious, outrageoils scandalous, shameful, shameless, villamons and wicked. This was pretty good, but either the dictionary of synonyms available at West Point is imperfect or Mr. Driggs memory was not equal to the occasion. As an alphabetical arrangement of ad jectives, the following is proposed as an amendment abominable, atrocious, base, degraded, detestable disgraceful, disgusting, dishonorable, disreputable, execrable, flagitious, flagrant, hateful, heinous, horrible, ignoble, ignominious, infa mons, iniquitous, ill famed, impious, loathsome, low minded, mean, mon strous nef'irious notorious, odious, outrageous, repulsive, scandalous, shameful, shameless, vile villainous, violent, wanton, wicked, worthless. While this is not an exhaustive list it conies nearer to covering the ground than Mr. Driggs effort l ire at Itcnfrcw. A bout 7 a. 111. Tuesday, the residence of l>r. John V.

Catherine Deiinling. a little daughter of Theodore Deiinling. of 332 W North St , while returning from Sunday school Sunday afternoon, was run down by a team of horses driven by Plumber Trimblin. The accident happened just in front of the German Lutheran church. Her large lionnet prevented the child from seeing the approaching team. The buggy wheels passed over her body and she was bruised and cut about the head, and her hand was crush ed by the wheels. Two boys broke through the ice on the North Hope dam. Tuesdey. and came near drowning. The water in that dam is twelve feet deep. One of the boys had no great trouble getting out. and Clyde Gravatt rescued the other with a pole, the ice breaking under him continually. Mrs. Airnen Crafty, of S. McKean St.. fell on a slippery pavement and broke a bone in one of her hands C. B. McFarland slipped and fell on the ice last Friday morning, had his hand dressed at Branchton, and came on to Butler. Speaking of Newspapers. With a news gathering service sweep ing the world down to the last second, and with an editorial page the product of judg* ment, ability, force, discrimina tion and real humor, The Pittsburg Times is conspicious as a daily news paper that is good reading always It is safe to assert that there are more clippings of news events worth preserv ing and of general information made from The Times than from any other paper published in Pittsburg Like a good home, it is tidy, clean, comfortable, and with everything of the best one finds within its pages information, in struction, comfort and pleasure as he may desire. That it conducts no type founders' vaudeville of freak headliness makes it the pride of the printers' craft. It is not above republishing from the humble country papers and with what ever it uses it invaribly gives full credit. •'The Wooden Indian", quaint in his philosophy, has tomahawked to death many a tired, unhappy feeling. The serial story, if the best, is told in install ments neither too close together nor too far apart. The editorials are written with sincerity, directness of expression, and reliability of information that make the page the daily text book of many a person in life's school of facts. Giving other people the right of individual opinion it is never a scold nor a nagger. The Times, first and above all, is reli able. Its telegraphic service covers civilization. Its local news is crisp and honest. Its financial and market re jK>rts are accurate. The sporting world is covered in an attractive way. The social field is carefully and intelligently cultivated. Six cents a week. FLORIDA T\v o Week's Tour via Pennsylva nia ltialroad.
