CURRENT EVENTS. In scientific circles the most talked of invention or discovery, at present, is that of the ' Hewitt Interrnpter," which is declared by practical,scientific men to solve all the difficulties of wire less t-elegraphy, thus making that sys tem a complete, commercial success, and a menace to the great companies built up on the wire system. "It is difficult," says the Inquirer, "to explain to the ordinary person the workings of any part of this system. Fundamentally, the service depends on the excitement by electricity of so-call ed Hertzian waves, which spread in all directions, theoretically to infinity, but practically for at least three thousand miles, with sufficient force to affect in struments specially prepared to repeat the wave signals, much as the electrical disturbances in a telephone cause simi lar disturbances at the other end of the wire and reproduce speech. The great difficulty has been that the receiving in struments have depended on a mechan ical arrangement which works slowly and often faultily. The Hewitt inven tion is simple and effective- The re production does not depend largely on mechanical arrangement, but is—well, it is whatever the Hertzian waves are, and no man is able to define it. The suggestion has been made that Hertzian waves are broken atoms car ried by the ether, and this accounts for the fact that the X-rays permeate much solid matter and that radium rays go through three feet of steel. These broken atoms are so small that they are estimated to weigh one four quad rillionth of a gram each. This seems like nonsense, but it is the result of the latest study of the subject. The im portant feature at present is that a method has been discovered whereby these mysterious waves are made to serve the purposes of man in a commer cial way. Wireless telegraphy is yet in a crude state of development, but it has progressed far more in the few years it has been studied than did or dinary telegraphy in a similar period. The idea that man had reached the end of commercial invention is exploded. We seem to be on the verge of discover ies which will make previous ones seem crude and useless by comparison. Rail-less railroads, and flying machines that will fly may be expected next and with such tremendous possibilities be fore us why should we worry over such trifles as Quay joining the Democrats, a South American blockade, or a pros pective War in Europe. The present Congress expires by lim itation, next Wednesday, and this (Wednesday) morning it looks as though the discreditable blockade in the Senate is to be maintained to the end, no mat ter if the President has to call an extra session, to pass upon the treaties and the appropriation bills. The Democrats of the Senate rejected the compromise proposition on the statehood bill, yesterday, and the matter remained as it has stood for weeks. The option for the purchase of the Panama Canal expires next Tuesday, and unless the treaty with Colombia is ratified before that date a tangle might ensue which could readily become of in ternational importance and even of danger New Form of Ballot. It is reported from Harrisburg that the Republican State Executive Com mittee will be assembled by Chairman Quay at an early day for the purpose of passing finally on the ballot bill pre pared by a subcommittee, and which will be presented to the Legislature and pressed to passage. Ex-Senator William Hertzler of Juniata county, chairman of the sub committee, has given a partial outline of what his committee has agreed upon, provisions of the proposed law to govern the make up of the official ballot in this state in the future, the object being the removal of some of the objections that have been raised to the present Baker ballot. "This bill," says Mr. Hertzler, pro vides for straight party voting by the use of a separate column to the left of the groups of candidates whose names appear under the title of the office for which they are running, the same as in the Australian ballot. This column for straight party voting contains, one under the other, the names of all parties who have candidates to be voted for arranged so that the party having received the greatest number of votes at the preceding state election shall come first, the others ranking ac cording to their relative strength. And in case of political parties not represent ed on the ballot in the last state elec tion the order of arrangement shall be continued, alphabetically, according to the party name or appelation. At the right of each of the party designations there is a square and an X-ruaj k in any of these squares will be equivalent to a vote for every candidate of the party so designated. "Those desiring to vote a mixed ticket are given eyery opportunity to do so by the simplest method possible. The me chanical construction of the ballot is simple, compact and easily understood, and it will be about one third the size of the Baker ballot blanket sheet. By placing the party designations in verti cal order after the name of any can didate) receiving the nomination of more than one party the multiplication of party columns is eliminated. Also by this method of grouping the party des ignations in numerical order after a condidate's name with a square to the right of each party designation enables each party to ascertain the exact number of votes cast by such party, or parties, for any candidate receiving more than one party nomination. "Two lines in bold-faced typo will be across the top of the ballot. The first paragraph will .explain how the voter who so desires may vote a straight party ticket; the second paragraph tells how a voter can vote a mixed ticket. 'Following the Australian grouping of the names of candidates nominated by parties are blank spaces for the in sertion of names, written or by sticker of candidates who have not receiyed a party nomination." EIGHT million bushels of potatoes were imported last year. Think of it. At 75 cents a bushel that would mean $6,000,000 that our own farmers and truck gardeners should have had. POLITICAL. The vote on Recorder was the largest ever cast in Pittsburg—s(s,6oo; and Hays" majority over Haymaker was 7,371. Recorders elect Hays and Wymai* of Pittsburg and Allegheny, and several other politicians of the two cities of the Biglow faction were in consultation at Cambridge Springs, last week and this, over the division of the spoils. When it is learned that there are be tween three and four hundred jobs pay ing more than S9OO a year in Pittsburg alone the total reaching well over half a million, and these outside the police, fire and white wings branches, and the Controller's office, some conception may lie had of the motive behind the stress of the late campaign in those cities. City jobs 3ays the Dispatch are general ly regarded a good deal in the light of the famous declaration that "public of fice is a private snap." The pay is above the average for the work performed, the hours are short, the work light and th 3 opportunity for attending ball games unequaled in any other occupation. HARRISBURG. On Tuesday, Senator Forchtof Union county said that he was authorized to quote Senators Quay and Penrose and Insurance Commissioner Durham as be ing unqualifiedly in favor of the ballot reform bill prepared by the sub-com mittee of the Republican State Commit tee. The importance of this statement lies in the committal of Commissioner Durham to the passage of a new ballot bill. Rep. Malcolm McConnell of Law rence county, lias introduced a bill pro viding for the election in each county ef the state of an excise commission of three members, to govern and control the gfanting of liquor licenses, and it has caused considerable discussion, not only among members of the judiciary and bar throughout the state, but among the laymen. Opinions for and and against the measure are freely ex pressed. It is urged on the one side that the commission would be absolute in poli tics, and that with careful distribution of the liquor licenses conld dictate, not only the members of the state legisla ture, but delegates to all county con ventions of the several political parties. It is also argued that the plan is to make more political jobs, though the bill provides for an appeal to the superior and supreme courts, just the same as appeal from the quarter sessions now lies, which would serve as a check upon the gross use of political power by an excise commission. Banks throughout Pennsylvania are up in arms against a snake bill intro duced recently in the Legislature to have all of the State sinking fund de posited in one bank in Philadelphia. It is said that the fund now amounts to about $15,000,000 or $20,000,000 and that the bill is intended to favor one clique of politicians instead of allowing the money to be distributed throughout the State as at present. The bill raising the salaries of county Judges to $6,000 a year, city Judges to $8,500. Superior to $9,000 and Supreme to SIO,OOO, passed the House, finally, Tuesday WASHINGTON NOTES. On Thursday last Senator Quay join ed hands with the filibusters against the ratification of the Panama canal bill, claiming that he did so, not because he is opposed to the building of the canal, but because he was wilfully deceived by some of the Republican leaders who called the conference of Republican Senators Tuesday afternoon. He said that they told him that unless the trea ty was ratified before March 4th the option of the Panama Canal Companj would lapse and that the United States could not again be in the same favora ble position for purchasing the proper ty. They told him the company would ask $60,000,000 when they well knew the President that very day had wired the Panama companv that its proposi tion was accepted and that by such ac ceptance there was no need for hurry in ratifying the treaty. Upon these representations he was in duced, he claims, to consent to laying the statehood bill aside temporarily, so as to permit the executive sessions nec essary to wear out the opposition of 1 Senator Morgan of Alabama to the Canal bill. On Friday the Senate was tied up in one of the worst legislative tangles in its history. Programs, schedules and cau cus arrangements were knocked sky high, and nobody seemed to have a clear idea of what might happen. At 5;30 that afternoon, after being in executive session from 11 a. m., the senate took a recess until 11 o'clock next day. No attempt was made to force a night session, as the leaders wanted time to try to bring order out of chaose. On Saturday an effort to compromise the matter failed. The Senate, last week, adopted a reso lution calling npon the President, with the usual reservation, to furnish so:iie information regarding the island of Pines, which lies to tlie south of Cuba. It wants to know what government is conducting the affairs of the island; what was said about its political status and disposition when the military occu pation was brought to an end and the administration of President Palma in stalled ; and what, if anything, is being done to protect the property and per sonal interests of the citizens of the United States who have invested their money and settled there.

Wants to buy the Orphan's Home The board of managers of the St. Paul's Orphan'.- Home of the Reformed ; church of the United States met last Monday in the Hotel Boyer. Pittsburg, j to cosider the sale of the home property situated in Entler. A syndicate of But ; ler men. headed by Otto Limlterg. has made an offer to the board of managers to purchase the property for $75,000. It was this proposition that the Ixiard met to consider. The house is located on a 20-acre tract of ground on a hill overlooking Butler, and has a tine colonial style lionse of 35 rooms with a chapel and school build ing. The site is one of the most beauti ful around Butier, and adjoins the Lim berg estate, and it is the wish of the Butler syndicate to cut it up into build ing lots." The property was formerly the home of Gen. McCall, of the United States army, and was purchased from him about 35 years ago by a party of Pittsburg men and presi-nted by them to the Pittsburg synod of the Reformed church to be used as a home for the orphan children of the church. A great many children have been sent to the home from Pittsburg.aud at the present time there are about 100 little ones at the home. Great Crowd at Cambridge. Cambridge Springs, the mecca of Pittsburcrers, looked like a convention town last Saturday. A great crowd of Biglow politicians were there: also 800 Knights of Columbus with their wives or sweethearts, and all the hotels were full. Recorder-elect William B. Hays had been in consultation with County Re corder .T. Denny O'Neil and County Con troller R. J. Cunningham, at the Rider, and the three will decide upon a method of equitably distributing the jobs be tween city and county. They had ex pected to finish their plans in peace, but on Saturday the vanguard of a great army of workers reached Cambridge Springs and more were expected on every train. The Recorder-elect and county offcials were caught off their guard and the conferences were brought to an abrupt close, while the dispensers of fat berths greeted their over-enthn siastic friends and supporters. Local Institute at Prospect. The local Teachers' Institute at Pros pect was thoroughly enjoyed by the large crowd that filled the I. O. O F. hall.

Campbell farm near Greece City which will be drilled to the Speechley. A Rood deal of interest is manifested in regard to the probable outcome of this venture.

Charley was a good boy and was highly respected by all our people. He was about 23 years of age at the time of his death. SILF.X. A Tale of Life. What is my ambition? The morning sun is bright, My heart and hope alike leap high, And life is all delight. What is my ainfcition? The sun stands high at noon, I must achieve some purpose, I can't commence too soon What is my ambition? The sun is evening red, The day is past and life is done, Ambition—it is dead. E. H. NEGLEY. My Love. My love has eyes of richest blue, And in their depths I see Myself reflected, and I know That in her heart I be As truly set; just as I am, Without one fault concealed, And any virtue that I have, All, all for her revealed. My love has lips so ruby red, So set like Cupid's bow That streams of love from their rich depths Continually doth flow. And back of these are pearly teeth, And back of these a throat, Where dwells ecstatic melody In sweet seraphic note. But better than her bonny e'en And lips that do enthrall, My love'B a mind for all tnankiDd, A heart aglow for all. There dwells the generous thought that can O'erlook the faults in me. There wells the song that speaks her thought Of love for all that be. And would you ask me why she's fair And loved by all who know'/ Look to her heart, and there you'll see That selfsame love aglow. For all the love that's showered on her. And all the balm for pain, Is her own love she gives away Reflected back again. E. H. NEGMCY. Binding of Books Is our occupation.
