Some new announcements were add ed to tbe list of candidates for the County Primaries. Read the list each week. The Punxsutawney Spirt was face tious last week, and got off this: "There isn't a gTeat deal being said on the subject of a suitable candidate for Governor or the Commonwealth. Congreesman Haff and Acheaon have both been mentioned favorably, and it is conceded that the candidate should "come ont of tbe West," but everybody appears to be afraid to guess who will be selected as "the spontaneous choice of the people." Washington JS" otes. Rep. Haft's bill giving Jacob Trout man of Bntler, a pension of $32 per month passed the House, Saturday. On Monday of this week the U. 8. Su preme Court made a decision sustaining Judge Groaacnp'a injunction against the Beef Trust, and also President Roose velt's position on tbe matter. Judge Grosscup's remarks on the de cision are interesting; be said; "Tbe decision establishes tbe right of tbe government to prevent combina tions among tbe manufacturers of meats. It fortifies the Sherman act. It Is a long stop in the direction of effectu al government supervision. But to my mind, tbe real significance of tbe de cision is much deeper and far-reaching even this. It effectually clears the decks for what I believe will be tbe next really great national movement— as tbe restriction, and finally tbe aboli tion, of slavery was tbe last great fun damental movement—the organization and supervision, by tbe nation itself of tbe great corporations of tbe future, a movement whose chief object will be not so much to control prices, or merely to curb power, ss to bring corporate ownership within the reach and reason able confidence of tbe people at large, and thus to re-peopleize and republican ize again tbe indnstrial ownership of tbe country." After a fnll day of discussion and con sideration, Monday, the House commit tee on interstate and foreign commerce authorized a favorable report on a bill that is designed to meet tbe suggestions contained in tbe President's message to Congress and confer upon the inter state commerce commission tbe power to fix rates, and thus do away to a large extent, at lesst, with the pernicious system of rebating. PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT made a note worthy speech at tbe banquet of tbe Union League Club in Philadelphia, Monday evening. Replying to tbe corporation critics who have been de crying or denouncing bis domestic policy as an assault upon vested inter ests. He did not mince his words. He tells them plainly and emphatically that their antagonism to measures in tbe interest of the nation as a whole is ill-advised and mistaken; that while the possessors of tbe poWer which comes from vast wealth mast be permitted their fall legal rights they must not misuse that power to the pablic injury. To prevent that and to protect them also from the rapacity of their fellows he insists that there must be the higher power of tbe Government to safeguard the rights of tbe whole country. This Government, he reminds them, does not recognize classes. Poor and rich alike are entitled to and will be assured their fullest rights, but no more. AT Portland, Oregon, Tuesday, the Federal grand jory returned three in dictments in connection with tbe in vestigation into the land frauds. Tbe Brat is against United States Senator John H. Mitchell, Congressman Binger Harrman, 8. A. D. Puter, Horace C. McKinley. Emma L. Watson, Daniel W. Tarpley, Elbert K. Brown, Nellie Blown, his wife, Harry A. Young, Frank H. Walgamot, Clark E. Loomis and Salmon B. Ormsby. They are charged with having comspired Feb. 1, 1003, to defraud tbe United States government of public landa by prepar ing and signing affidavits as to the oc cupation and settlement of these lands. Senator Mitchell ia specifically charged With having at Washington, D. C, March 8. lAOSJ, unlawfully prepared an affidavit for Emma L. Watson to sign, in which Mrs. Watson untruthfully awore she was a bona fide settler in a portion tn 2to H o'clock. In the reading room will bo found a number of helpful Ixjoks such as "The Man from Glengarry " "The Prospector," "Chinese Character istics," "The Gist of Japan ' and many others. Remember that tbe meeting hour has been changed from 4to 3 o'clock. All men are Invited. Harmony Items. A mass meeting of almost 200. com posed of the best citizens and ladies of Harmony. Zelienople and Jackson twp., was held in the English Lutheran church. Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock, called by the ministers of the two towns for the purpose of expressing their dis approval of the steps being taken at Harrisburg to change modify or re peal the Sunday Law of 1794. Rev. J. A. Kribbs, director of the Orphans' Home at Zelienople was chosen chair man and J. E. Kocber, secretarv. Hon. John Dindinger and Rev. Hugh Leith. pastor of the Presbyterian church, were selected to go to Ilarrisburg with a memorial expressing the sense of the meeting, in fact the sentiment of the vicinity, and wait upon onr representa tives and tbe proper legislative commit tee. A committee was named to frame resolutions upholding the Sunday Law of 1794. and condemning actions that may be taken to change this law in any manner in the sense of greater liberali tv. The memorial that will be taken to Harrisburg by the two men selected will request no change in this law, the 1794 law being liberal enough. Mrs. Jacob Shaffer died at the home Moses G. Bentle, Rochester. Pa., Satur day. Mrs. Shaffer was aged, the second wife of Sir. Shaffer, formerly of Har mony, who died some years ago Funeral services were held in the Grace Reformed church at Harmony, Monday afternoon.

Another well has been located on the same farm. Roumania —American drillers in Ron mania are looked upon as very superior individuals and in older to maintain their dignity are compelled! to wear silk hats and dress suits when not working There are only two classes known in tbe country—the rich and the poor. Such a thing as a Democratic s-pirit is un known and the drillers in order to main tain their authority and inspire the res pect of their subordinates must be able tc appear in their "glad rags" every day. They live in grand style and the com pany that employs them pays the tolls. Freak Oil Well —Queen Bros, brought in a well on the G. E. George farm, in Brady's Bend twp , Armstrong county last week, in which a vein, or strata of natural refined, or white oil, was tapped. The drill found 12 feet of excellent pro ducing sand, and the well filled up 500 feet with the fluid, which could not be exhausted by the bailer. Thig is the second well ever drilled in which natural refined oil was struck, the Somerville well on an adjoining farm by this strike, being the first. For a number of years after the Somerville well was drilled in the product WHS sold to neighboring farmers and others right from the tank and used in lamps as an illuminant with out any further refining process. Tbe oil is as clear as the best commercially refined; burns with as clear a flame, and makes as good a light. Of late vears the product of the Somerville well has been bottled up and sold as a hair oil by a company organized for that purpose. While the Somerville well never exced ed a barrel a day, the Queen well is es timated to make up to 25 barrels. Jefferson County—The Citizens Fuel company of Punxsutawnev, which waH organized last July and which was later incorporated with the Mahoning gas and Heat company, gave an option on its property to the T. W. Phillips Gas Co. of Butler, on Tuesday. Tbe Citizens Fuel company has leases covering about 7,000 acres in that coun tv on which there is now in operation 15 wells.

BaU«r, Pa., December 10, 1904. ' MONOTONY MADNESS. A rate That !• Often the Portion of Llvlithou? Keeper*. Tecple who read books—and all do In this day- will recall Kipling's story of the lonely lightkeeper who became mad from the monotony of his situa tion, says the Indianapolis Sentinel. While the story was fiction, it never theless was in accordance with many actual occurrences. A correspondent submitted the question to the light house board and found that, while there had been no snch cases as that of Kipling's character. Dowse, there had been many which showed the madden ing effect of monotony and isolation upon the human mind. The madness of the lighthouse is much like that of the desert, for they are traceable to a like cause. In the desert there is monotony of silence; at lea there is monotony of sound. One Is ns bad as the other since both derive their entire pain from mental effect It is a fearful disease, not yet fully un derstood, though many noted alienists have made a study of it This government maintains 1,500 lighthouses, and about 100 of them are isolated, and communication with the outside world may be interrupted some times for months. If a man is taken from the ordinary walks of life, where he mingles with his fellow man, and sent to a light house where no human face is seen ex cept that of the ever present assistant and no sound is heard save the roaring of the wind and wave, he has been transferred from normal to most ab normal conditions. In n remarkably short time keeper and assistant have talked out. Then they begin to wear on each other, and soon they fall to quarreling. Some times melancholia attacks one of them, and unless he is speedily relieved his mental balance is disturbed. When the disturbance becomes extreme it takes either a homicidal or suicidal turn, and the unfortunate has to be watched closely and sometimes con fined to keep him from doing violence to himself or others. It Is well known that the Minot ledge light Is noted for the number of men who have gone crazy in it and for that reason is an object of Interest to stu dents of mental diseases. It Is. as ev erybody knows, a piece of engineering of the very highest order, being In that respect second only to the famous Ed dystone light. More than a year was consumed In getting a foundation for It, and so high are the tides and so terrific the storms that the entrance to the light is more than forty feet nbove the water. Then, one above the other, come the five rooms occupied by the keepers and used for storage purposea, then the watch room and finally the lantern. The tower, being circular and space greatly in deuiaud, naturally every thing Is made to conform, ao that no room shall be lost. Even the beds on which the men sleep ara curved. Ev erything Is round. The government has done the best It could to make life there as bearable as possible, and keeps five men stationed there, so that they may go ashore as often as the chance Is afforded without detriment to the service.—Brooklyn Eagle. Fml Swlmralnit Flah. For long distance swimming the shark may be said to hold the record, as he can outstrip the swiftest ship# apparently without effort, swimming and playing around them and ever on the lookout for prey. Any human being falling overboard in shark fre quented waters has very little chance of escape, so rapid is the action of the shark, the monster of the deep. The dolphin, another fast awlmnilng flsli, a near relative of the toothed whales, la credited with a speed of considerably over twenty miles an hour. For short distances the salmon can outstrip ev ery other fish, aecompltohlng Its twen ty-flve miles an hour with ease. The Spanish mackerel la one of the fastest of food fishes and cuts the water llko a yacht. Predatory fishes are generally the fastest swimmers. A fast tlsli looks trim and pointed, with Its head conical In shape and Its tins fitting close to Its body like a knife blade Into Its handle. Fish, on the other hand, with large heads, bigger than their bodies, anil with short, stubby tina, are built for slow motion. How a -Hull Tlilef Wna Hlneovereil.
