WASHINGTON NOTES.
MR. WILLIAMS, the new Democratic
leader in Congress, made no headway
last Thursday in his speech against the
Republican party. He attempted to at
tack the "stand pat" policy and asked
on what the Republicans stood. The
answer, as reported, was "for a flush,''
and the reply was: "Then it mutt be a
bob-tail." We think there is here either
a case of wrong reporting or a misunder
standing of the fundamental principles
of the national game of poker. We
have had recourse to a hand-book on
the subject and find that it must have
been said by the Republicans that they
"stood pat on a flush," as one cannot
stand pat and draw a card, as would
have been the case had it been a "bob.
tall," aa Mr. Williams expressed it.
After careful consideration of the
authorities, we are disposed lo stand by
the contention that the Republican
•party stands pat on a flush —a royal
which seems to be the highest hand
that can be held in a game of poker
and consists of the ace, king, queen,
jack and ten of any one suit.—lnquirer.
A bill has been introduced n the
House making an appropriation to pur
chase the grove of big trees in Calaveras
county, California, and it should pass
as these trees are the greatest wonders
of the natural world. Tbey are believ*
ed to be older than the presence of man
on this continent, and are the most ma-
jeotic plants that the globe contains. It
woald be a national disgrace to let them
be measured in foot values of lumber
for they cau never be renewed or re
placed by future growths. Thousands
of years were required for their devel
opment
THE rules ol social etiquette appear
to be rather strenuous in Washington.
Mrs. Hay gave a brilliant state dinner
at a time when her husband lay ill in
bed and the explanation for her singu
lar course lies in the fact that it would
be contrary to etiquette for any mem
ber of the cabinet to give a dinner un
til one has first been given by the Secre
tary of State, ranking member of the
President's official family.
SENATOR QUAY'S bill on the forma
tion of a State from Oklahoma and the
Indian Territory attracts a good deal of
attention in the press. But the main
thing about the bill is its illustration of
the cheerful ease with which asserted
promises can be redeemed by introduc
ing bills which there is no intention of
passing. Captions critics may affect to
see, in the story that the provision of
the bill for an Indian Senator was in
redemption of a promise made to tbe
Indiana, an indication that Senator
Quay regards a promise made to bis
adopted tribe as more binding than the
promises of reform which he has made
to the people of Pennsylvania. Bnt in
that they do the Senator injustice. Ho
has always been willing to redeem his
' reform pledges to the extent of having
bills introduced. Indeed, if memory
seryes, he had some reform bills intro
duced in the Legislature, and cheer
fully claimed fulfillment of the pledges
while the bills slumbered to the end in
committee. —Dispatch.
The bill relative to the adulteration
and misbranding of food which, under
the leadership of Mr. Hepburn, passed
the House last week, complements val
uable legislation on the same subject
which was secured last winter. The
earlier enactment, forming a feature
of the Agricultrial Appropriation bill,
applied only to imports, while the later
one deals with domestic productions
which are impure, unwholsome or false
ly labelled. Both measures protect the
honest packer, dairyman and wine
grower, and shield the consumer from
imposition, not to say injury. Common
justice dictates the adoption of safe
guards against frauds and poisons at
home as well as those coming here from
foreign countries.
CONDITIONS in the far-East remain
problematical with a preponderance of
probality in favor of peace. England
seems ready to help Japan in case of
war with Russia, and the French
foreign minister has declared that even
in that case France must remain
nentral, as the Franco-Russian alliauce
was not predicated on such a question
as that tow pending. Such'' has been
the general understanding, and it is a
ftct that tte Russo-French note of
M*rch 10, ltOi, which followed the
publication of the Anglo-Japanese con
vention. contained no binding pledges
in this respect.
Epidemic Conditions.
The typhoid situation is a continual
snrprise. It ran along for several days
of the past week with no new cases, but
on Tuesday of this week four were re
ported. Three or four hundred people
are yet sick, and seventy nurses are yet
on the pay roll. The committes yet
have plenty to do, and will not finish
their work for wieks.
The daily attendance at the schools is
now about 1900, or within 400 of nor
mal.
Late contributions to the funds are,
citizens of Wfcitestown $35; Clarion
f39; Emlenton |57; Altoona $2%.
Facts About Korea.
Corel or Korea, as some American
geographers prefer to spell it, is a conn
try covering about .SO,OOO square miles
of territory, which makes it about the
same size as the State of Kansas. It
lies between the Yellow and Japan
Seas, and has been governed as an inde
pendent kingdom, although acknowl-,
edging some authority to the Chinese
Empire. Since the war between Japan
and China, the influence of the Japanese
in the country has become very strong.
The population is estimated at from
8,000,000 to 10,000,000, and the present
ruler 19 King Heni Yi, whose power is
regarded as absolute.
The country is quite monntainons,
but well watered, and the 6onthern and
eastern portions very fertile. Rice,
wheat, corn, tobacco, millet, rye, cot
ton, hemp, ginseng and the common
varieties of fruits are raised. The
Koreans belong to the Mongolian race,
and appear to be closely related to both
the Japanese and the Chinese. They
have a tongue of their own. but have
adop'ed the Chinese language for their
literature, official business and social
intercourse. Tneir religion is that
founded by Confncins, mixed with var
ious elements of ancient superstitions.
The houses in Korea are bnilt of wood
and only one story in height. The
people are unacquainted with beds or
chairs.
A special report of the Department cf
Commerce states that the commerce of
Korea amounts to about $15,000,000 per
year. The greater portion of this is
with Japan. There are eight ports
open to foreign trade, which are classed
as "treaty ports." The first treaty with
the United States was made in 1882.
The "treaty ports" are Chemulpo.
Fusan, Wnnsan, Seoul (the capital),
Chinampo, Mokpo, Songchin, Masanpo
and Knnsan. The actual trade through
non-treaty ports, however, is much
greater than that through the treaty
ports— probably fully double.
American products, both manufactur
ed and otherwise, are popular in Korea,
but the very large proportion reach that
country through China and Japan, and
the direct trade of the United States
with Korea is extremely small. It is
only within a comparatively short time
that the direct trade of the United
States with Korea was of sufficient im
portance to justify a separate record.
The imports are chiefly cotton and
woolen goods, metals, kerosene, silk,
and machinery for the use of the rail
ways and those engaged in their con
struction. The chief exports are rice >
beans, hides, ginseng and copper. The
currency chiefly consists of copper cash
atd nickel coins, gold and silver coins
being out of circulation. The trade of
Korea with Japan is growing more rap
idly than With any other coustry, the
importation of cotton goods from Japan
amounting to from two to three million
yen annually. Cotton goods are the
largest article in the value of imputa
tions into Korea, amounting to between
she and seven million yen annually
Silk goods amount to about one and a
half million yen per annum.
According to the government report,
copper, iron and coal are abundant in
Korea and gold and silver mines are be
ing successfully operated, an American
company having charge of and operat
ing a gold mine at the treaty port of
Wunsan under a concession granted in
18'J5. Concessions have also been grant
ed to Russian, German, Japanese and
French subject?. Railways,telegraphs,
telephones and a postal system have
been recently introduced into Korta. A
railway from the seaport of Chemulpo
to Seoul, the capital, a distance o e 20
miles, was built by American contrac
tors, and has reduce! the time between
the seaport and capital from eight
hours to one and three-quarter hours.
The Seoul Electric Company, organized
chiefly by Americans and with Ameri
can capital, has built and operated an
electrical railway near Seoul, which is
much used by the natives. This elec
trical plant is said to be the largest
single electrical plant in Asia. The
machinery is imported from the United
States, and the consulting engineer, a
Japanese, is a graduate of the Massa
chusetts Institute of Technology.
Korea has a stinding army of 17,000
men, who have been trained in the
modern ait of warfare after European
models. Tbe royal guard is armed with
Berdan rifles. The army will not cut
much of a figure in the impending war,
but so far Korea appears to be ratlif-r
indifferent and seems to favor neitbt r
Japan nor Russia.—Derrick.
Flood Notes.
The Allegheny river reached fiord
stage la«t Friday afternoon, with 25
feet of water in tho channel at Frceport
and 27 that night at the bridge in Pitts-
Dnrg.
Satnrday afternoon the 30-foot mark
was reached at Pittsburg, with the wa
ter reachihg across from Penn Ave. in
Pittsburg to Lacock St. in Allegheny.
The loss to the river interests in the
two cities is estimated at $200,000.
At Sharpsville, Mercer county, Satur
day. a number of men were standing
on an old bridge watching the flood in
the Sbenango. when a span of tho
bridge was washed away, and four of
the crowd were irowned. The loss in
and about Sharon was estimated &t
$300,000.
In the Pittsburg district one stenmer,
one barge, and 40 coal lioats were car
ried away, fifty industrial plants along
the three rivers had to close down for
from one to three days, and the damage
to tbe railroads by flood and washouts
will reach a hnndred thousand.
An ice gorge on the creek between
Renfrew and Reibold, flooded the track
last Friday, and the B. & O. trains
used the West Penn tracks.
A land slide at Muddycreek delayed
the Bessemer trains Friday.
Saturday morning a cave-in at Bak
erstown tunnel, and the flood* on l«>tli
roads shut out all mail from the city to
Butler till noon. The B. It. & P.
trains ran over the Bessemer tracks to
East Pittsburg, that day.
Floods were reported in the eastern
part of this state also in New Jersey.
New York. Ohio, West Virginia, Main
land and Indiana.
Following the thaw and flood came
zero weather, which increased the dis
tress of those who had to move to the
upper stories of their houses.
Four steamers burned in the river.
Sunday. One of them, thu Elizabeth,
passed under the o!d Union bridge, at
the noint, and set lire to it, but tbw
flames were extinguished.
Tlu; flood left the rivers at coal boat
stage and Sunday and Monday were
bnsy days on the Monon. netting the
fleets ready for the trip south-
One third of the housis in Wlnnlipfc'
were surrounded by water, and tbfl
channel mark was 44 feet

When yon take into consideration
that the happinees of a lifetime is at
stake when you marry that marriage
is not for a day. a week, a month or a
year, it behooves you to look well and
carefully, especially when there are so
many examples of "marrying in haste
and repenting at leisure."
The men who fall quick victims to
the fever called love are wont to recover
from it with equal rapidity. The right
kind of a man seldom makes np his
mind regarding marriage until after he
has deliberated over the matter long
and earnestly, studying carefully the
girl who would have it in her power to
make or mar his whole alter life were
she his wife.
Mixed Politics.
Political conditions in this town and
count}* are bidly mixed at present, but
listen to this "analysis of the fight" in
Pittsburg, as given by the Dispatch,
last Sunday.
"The Republicans have a ticket in
every ward, The Citizens have in -!4
wards, the Orphans in 20 and the Dem
ocrats in 3.
The Republicans are supporting the
Orphans ticket in five wards.
In seven wards the Citizens and Re
publicans are together.
In three wards the Democrats and
Republicans are backing the same tic*.
! et.
The Citizens and Democrats have
fused in 21 wards.
The Democrats are working for the
Orphans in three wards.
There is one Democratic Republican
ticket.
One Orphans-Citizen ticket.
In one ward the Republicans. Demo
crats and Orphans are suggesting the
same ticket In another the Republi
cans. Citizens and Democrats are unit
ed against the Orphans
In three wards the Citizens Demo
crats and Orphans are fighting the Re
publicans.
An "understanding ex'sts" between
Republican and Citizen leaders. They
are to fight the Orphans first and their
own battles afterwards."
And six more similar specifications.
Who do yon think you would vote for
if yon lived in Pittsburg?
The Cheswick Horror.
The Allegheny Coal Co's mine, near
Cbeßwiek station on the West Penn.
was the scene of an explosion, last Mon
day morning, which killed nearly all
the miners, (estimated at 200) in it.
The mine was as perfect as engineer
ing skill could make it; the shaft, 12x14,
was 924 feet deep: the mine was well
ventilated, had fans going, and had
been inspected and pronounced free of
gas half an honrbefore the miners went
into it, and yet within one hour an ex
plosion occurred that wrecked the
mine, the shaft, the heavy iron girders
of the hoisting apparatus and tipple and
blew a mule from the bottom of tlve
shaft to the top and 200 feet into the
air.
Air was forced into the mine, and a
party of rescuers went down and into
it. only to find piles of dead bodies, wa
ter flowing into the mine and a fire rag
inP> , - .
Shoitly after midnight Tuesday night
the cage which had been frozen fast to
the side of the shaft cama to the sur
face with a miner in it. asking that
stretchers be sent into the mine. Soon
nfterward Inspector and
three other inspectors came to the sur
face. Inspector Callaghan said in re
gard to the rescue work: "We explor
ed Nos. 1,2 and 3 entries of the mine
for a distance of 1,200 feet and every
where we found dead bodies and hu
man flesh. Some of the bodies were
badly burned and discolored, while
others were in a fairly good condition.
Most of the miner# were killed by the
explosion, while the othere perished
from the effects of the afterdamp. We
found much gas and afterdamp in en
tries Nos. 3 and 4.
"We have made plans for the re
moval of 15 bodies that have been
placed near the shaft. The debris has
been cleared away from the bottom of
the shaft, and after the 15 bodies have
been taken to the surface and the brok
en cais and wreckage have been clear
ed from other parts of the mine we will
be able to remove the dead from all
parts of the mine. I do not see any
reason why all the bodies should not be
removed by this evening, and the idea
that there will be found any living
miners is absurd."
Mayor Ha)?, of Pittsburg, seat the
$3,000 balance due the Butler Relief
Fund to tbe Cheswick people, and the
Butler Committee approved of it nt a
meeting Tuesday evening.
Ki«-niioi* fMailt Closed
Tbe Eleanor Iron & Steel Company
mills in North Irwin were closed by the
Sheriff of Westmoreland Co., lastSatur
day, with a notice that the sale would
take place on Saturday, January 30.
Parties to tbe action are tbe Liberty
National Bank of Pittsburg on a judg
ment of &}B,OOO, and tbe Butler Land &
Improvement Company on a claim of
$10,500.
The company is composed mostly of
Pittsburg men, with John Robensteen
of the East End, President. The pimt
was established about two years ago.
About six months ago the mill was all
but dismantled, and the officials gave it
out that they were going to move to
Butler, where a million dollar company
would be organized.
This project fell through, and the of
ficers returned to Irwin with a reorgan
ization scheme ai-d changed tbe name
to the Eleanor Steel Company. It was
given out that the plant would be re
constructed Ir.vin people purchased
preferred stock. Stockholders allege
that in the purchase of tbe shares they
were misled.

Butler Co. Teachers' Institute.
The Bntler Conuty Teachers' Institute
will be held iu the Court House. Bntler,
February 8-12, l'JOt. The postpone
ment rendered necessary ly the fevtr
epidemic in Bntler has not interfered in
nnv way with the arrangements for the
day sessions, and one of the strongest
braces of instructors the county has
ever enjoyed will be on hand. County
Superintendent Painter, who is rapidly
recovering his normal health.is especial
ly desirous that there shall be a full at
tendance of the teachers of the county
at the sessions of this meeting. Under
the school laws it is maudatory that all
schools he closed during Institute week,
and 110 teacher can receive compensa
tion for teaching during that week.
Moreover, no teacher haviDg in mind
professional duties and professional ad
vancement will absent herself or him
self from this means of improvement.
There is no ground for fear or timid:-
tv in coming to Bntler at this time. The
sanitary conditions of the town were
probably never better. Under the su
! pervision of the state board of health
i there has been such a cleaning up ns
| the town has never known before,

; been watched and guarded. The high
est authority exists for this statement.

STATE BOARD OF HEALTH,
Butler. Pa.. Jan. 27. 1004.
SUPT. JOHN A. GIBSON,
Dear Sir:-In reply to your inquiry
as to any possible danger which may
exist to visitors to your town contract
ing typhoid fever, I beg to say that I
do not believe any such danger exists at
the present tim°, and that persons in:iy
visit Bntler in perfect safety.
The causes which contributed to the
evistence of typhoid fever have been
entirely eliminated, and the great care
which has been exercised in the treat
ment of those who have been ill pre
cludes the possibility of the disease be
ing contracted from any public sonrce.
Vonrs very truly
WILLIAM K. BATT.
Quarantine Officer at Large.
This statement is issued tinder direc
tion from Snpt. Painter, who expects to
be present at the sessions of the Insti
tute and who anticipates that the loyal
teachers of the county will do likewise.
