WASHINGTON NOTES.
The general debate on the Hepburn
lrill, in the Senate, will close to morrow,
by agreement , and the debate in the
amendments begin. Senator Tillman
tried to have May 9th tixed for the
final vote, bat Morgan of Alabama ob
jected, and the time can only be fired
by unanimous consent.
Speaker Cannon has expressed his be
lief that Congress will not adjourn
an til well on in June, and fortifies it by
excellent reasoning why it should not.
Since passing the Philippine tariff bill,
the statehood bill and the Hepburn rate
bill the Honse has labored more or less
diligently over the appropriation bills,
which are now well in hand, but have
not been pafsed in the Senate. Mr.
Cannon does not expect that the Senate
will make any progress in considering
them until the rate bill is disposed of
bnt he sounds an emphatic warning that
Senatorial haste in acting npon them
then will not bo followed bv the House
The speaker is familiar with the Sena
torial custom of slashing and amending
appropriation bills on the order of the
army appropriation bill, whi' h was cut
$7,000 from the House figures by the
Senate and then increased $2,500,000 by
Senate amendments.
Champ Clark thinks that the Presi
dent is too busy a man to be charged
with selecting the members of the
Board of Education for the schools of
the District of Columbia.
"It's too much to ask of a man_who
is making 300,000 appointments a year,
bringing tho crowned heads Of the world
to a realization of the folly of making
war, delivering speeches about the man
with the muck rake and advising the
women of the country about purely
domestic affairs that he appoint the
members of the Board of Education of
this district or any other part of the
habitable globe,' said Clark in opposing
a section in a bill pertaining to the
affairs of Washington.
That one little speech knocked out
the amendment and one was inserted
placing the duty of making the appoint
ments upon the shoulders of the
Supreme Court of the District of Col
ombia.
The Senate Committee on Privileges
•nd Elections is splitting hair*' over
the Smoot cate, and adjourned until to
morrow. Monday's telegram says:
"The qnestion of importance is whether
the proper proceedings are to move to
expel the Utah senator, which would
require a two-thirds vote, or to exclude
him from membership in the Senate,
which would require only a majority
• vote."
Senator Bailey is reported as "going
to make a determined fight to give the
Senate a chance to vote on the free
alcohol bill, which the Standard Oil and
some minor interests are strongly sus
pected of intending to smother in tho
finance committee of the Senate, where
it went, when it came from the House,
which passed it by a very large
majority.'
POLITICAL.
Senator Penrose is said to be persist
ing in his determination to nominate
Jnatice Stewart for Governor, the idea
being to prevent a light on his nominees
for State Senate. Justice Elkin is also
said to lie with Penrose, on account of
his opposition to both Watres and
Acheson. Penrose was in Pittsburg,
Saturday, still talking Stewert, and try
ing to patch up his own fences.
GEN. KUROKI of the Japanese army
is a mystery. He disappeared immedi
ataly after the war, and no honor has
been publicly bestowed upon him Now
it is rumored that he is the former
English General, Sir Hector McDonald,
who was supposed to have committed
snicide in Paris, three years ago. After
the Boer campaign he was given a high
command in India, and then in 1903
came the report that he had suddenly
left Hindustan "on private business."
On this business he reached Paris, and
there read in a newspaper that he was
to stand a court-martial on "grave
charges." Then came the report that
immediately on reading this paragraph
he went to his room and shot himself.
At first it was decided that the general
was to be buried in Paris, but a new
Borprise appeared in the person of his
widow, of whose existence the war of
fice did not know. By the express wish
of Lady Macdonald the body—or, as
rumor says now, the coffin —was sent to
London and unceremoniously huddled
away to Scotland in a baggage van
The body, or the coffin, was quietly al
most secretly, buried in a pjiblic ceme
tery at half-past fi in the morning. The
coffin was not opened from the time it
left tho Paris hotel.
EVERY dog has hia day and every
cat her night. No longer is the cat a
despised creature at which to throw
boot-jacks and cass words. Cat raising
has become a money-making business
and one in which women are particular
ly successful. Miss Laura Gold Hop
kins of Now York says she is making
lots of money raising pussies. Sho gets
from SIOO to S2OO each for Persian cats
and from $lO to S2O each for tho or- J
dinary backyard variety. She began
with one cat about four years ago and
now she declares her "cattery" is worth
several thousand dollars. However,
she says there is not much money in
the common feline—society has the fad
as usual, it is willing to pay high for
what it wants. So Persians have the
call—that is, for pets. But the poor,
neglected midnight serenaders are not
scorned as once they were. No. They
are eagerly sought. Some butchers
openly and above board are advertising
••at meat. Honest. P H.- Bnt it is
meat for the cats to eat.
AT Mt. Caraiel, in the anthracite coal
regions. Monday, the striking miners
and foreigners attacked the state
troops, and were fired npon. Three
foreigners were killed and some in
jured.
ALREADY the talk of organizing an
earthquake insurance company in Now
York is talked of. It would seem to be
a good time to write the policies after
the earthquake is over, if they can be i
wound np before the next destructive
MM comae.
San * rancisc.i.
"An engineer states that the area de
vastated by fire in San Francisco ap
proximates 10,000 acres, or about 15
:«inare miles. There are few cities in
the world where so mnch valnable prop
erty was contained in an equal territory.
Within this 15 square miles were 100
hanks, some of the finest buildings in
the world, thousands of mercantile and
manufacturing establishments and more
than 230,000 inhabitants, besides 40,000
transients.
"Notwithstanding the enormous and
widespread destruction the homes of
150,000 people are still standing and
practically uninjured. There still re
main the great ship yards at the Potre
ro. the Pacific mail docks, the stock
yards at Soutli San Francisco, the docks
and manufactories along the water
front from Mission creek to Hunters
Point, the mint, thfc postoffice and a
retail district on Filmore and Devisa
dero streets.—Oakland, Cala., Tribune.
THE time required for a journey
round the earth by a man walking day
and night, without resting would be
428 days; an express train, 40 days;
sound, at medium temperature,
hours; light, a little over one-tenth of a
second, and electricity, passing through
a copper wire, a little under one-tenth
of a secon .1
THE news that the Pennsylvania
Compan- has decided to place orders
for 20.000 steel cars for 1907 delivery,
an investment of over $20,000,000, be
speaks the confidence which this great
corporation holds in the unabated and.
in fact, increasing continuance of pros
perity. It is the more significant, fol
lowing this year's orders for 50,000 cars,
that preparations should be made thus
early for the anticipated business of
next spring.
MAY DAY passed off quietly all over
the civilized world, excepting in Paris,
where the mobs were scattered by
cavalry, and seventy thousand soldiers
nnd police guarded the public buildings
against the anarchists.
Oil ami t.'as Notes.
The Market—Remains at 81.C4.
Jefferson twp. —The West Sunbury
Oil Co. will complete a 4th-sand well on
the Jno. C. Caldwell, this well.
Oakland twp. —Geibel No. 2 on the
Heck farm is showing for a 10 barrel
well in the 3d, and will lie drilled to the
4th.
Donegal twp—E. S. McCollouah
bought Wm. Faull's interest in six
leases for about $4,000.
Concord—James Thompson and Plum
C. Bell have a SDeecbley well on the
James Patton. It was a duster in the
4th, but they have some oil in the
Speechley.
Coylesville—Paul Mcßride sold his
interest in the Togo 0 : 1 Co., last week,
to Mat Yost and Frank Hinchberger for
SIO,OOO. Monks & Co. have located on
the Kramer; Rabbitt & Co. on the Jas.
Mcßride, and Flick & Co. on the Hy
Mcßride. H S. Hinchberger sold his
one-eighth interest in the 20-acre lease
on tbe C. Steighner to Frank Hinch
berger for SB,OOO.
"Wells completed and new produc
tion in April were very nearly the same
as for March, but in new work the
Pennsylvania oil fields show a decided
increase. A rise of six cents a barrel in
the market has stimulated developments
perceptibly in the older sections of the
region and will be felt in a larger de
gree the coming month. But, while
producers miv increase the number of
their wells, there is nothing in sight
that indicates an increase in the pro
duction of high grade oil. Similar con
ditions prevail in the Trenton rock oil
fields, where the decline in the produc
tion has been quite marked." —Derrick.
Big Sale—The Fisher Oil Company
has sold to the Pure Oil Coirpany all of
its producins properties, located in
Greene county, Pennsylvania, Marion,
Wetzel, Monongahola and Tyler coun
ties, West Virginia, and in Monroe,
Washingten and Belmont counties, in
Southeastern Ohio. The leaseholds con
sist of about 20,000 acres in the counties
named, on which are 300 producing
wells with an aggregate net production
of 1,000 barrels a day. The considera
tion was $1,000,000.
California—The oil fields of Southern
California suffered severely by the late
earthquake. One man writes; "In
some wells the casing, tubing and rods
have been broken off. In others it has
loosened the casing and let in the water.
The earthquake shook up the tanks in
this vicinity in great shape. Most of
them have a capacity of 3,000 barrels
each. Some have no tops, and the
earthquake splashed out half of the con
tents of these."
A Woclflins Anniversary.
Possibly some of your readers might
be interested in the knowledge that the
forty-first anniversary of the marriage
of Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Campbell of
Cherry twp. occurred on Wednesday,
April 25th, which day was celebrated
by the ingathering of many of their
relatives and friends, who rejoiced with
them in their having passed so many
years together. The day was spent
much as such days are usually spent,
viz:—in talking, ball playing, eating,
speecb-inaking, etc, all of which tend
to make a day both enjoyable and
profitable to busy men and women.
The first speech was made by Rev.
Fenstermacher which, although very
good and to the point, was cut a -little
short at one end by his having to be at
home in time to plant his onions that
evening. This gentleman is evidently
methodical in his work and does not
believe in putting off until tomorrow
what he can do today.
The nevt speaker was Rev Bradshaw.
He certainly had no onions to plant that
evening as he gave us a well rounded
out speech, full of jokes and good
points; however he evidently bejieves
that the marriage knot may through
time become so worn as to render it un
safe and acting on the belief he called
np Mr. and Mrs. Campbell and remar
ried them on the spot.
Another, who spoke, was Mr. Camp
bell himself. He, as usual, spoke in
terestingly—for a few minutes.
They were also the recipients of some
valuable gifts in the shape of furniture,
etc., presented by their children.
Old Father Time has laid his hand
very gently on this couple and consider
ing the two facts, viz: that Mr. Camp
bell is a veteran of the Civil War, also
that he has bten married forty-one
years, it is remarkable bow few signs
of ago are visible.
These people have the love and r«-
spoct of the entire community, and we
express a hope that they may pass
many more such anniverjaries in their
pleasant and comfortable homo. These
meetings are a joy to us all, they are
among the brlgfet spots in our lives,
the oasis of life's desert.
FRIEND.
Bud Boy at Cliiitonville.
The arrest of Albert Haas of Clinton
ville, Tuesday, and his subsequent con
fession clears up the mystery of the au
thorship of letters and public notices
that have been appearing in that vil
lage for several weeks.
The letters were sent to a well-known
young woman and contained slanderous
statements. When she ignored the let
ters, public notices equally objectlona
blc began appearing on trees in the
town. Finally one was posted on the
door of a church. It called upon the
congregation to investigate the young
lady's conduct, and was signed "A
Member."
Detectives fastened thb crime <*•
young Haa«, who comes from one of
the best known families in the village, j
and he made a confesuion. Haas also
says he attempted to burn the residence
of E. P. McElroy in Clintonville. and ,
started a forest fire that resulted in the 1
destruction of 85 acres of valuable 1
timber land, lie has been lodged in
jail at Franklin to await trial for .
arson and malidons mischief. J

He was born in Winfield township, but
raised in Penn township. He came to
Butler when a young man, and his first
venture was in the newspaper business,
being connected with- a paper called
•The Ameri3an." He was engaged in
various other enterprises and when the
oil was discovered he went to the upper
fields and while there was interested in
what was known as "Jacob's well",
near Bruin. But when oil was found
on Thorn creek he operated his own
farm there with much success.
Mr. Kennedy was well read in many
of the sciences, on which be conld talk
with interest, particularly that of
geology. He was noted for his general
intelligence and learning.
He leaves behind his widow, nee Ma
liarg, and two grand-children, Clarence
Kennedy of Butler, and Mrs Edith
Pride of Springfield, 111.
The funeral will occur tomorrow,
Friday at 10 o'clock a m. Interment

Kuhns, Gilmore and Bridenbaugh. The
step was decided upon at a conference
of the attending physicians and Dr.
Nicholson, of Franklin, on Monday.
The operation in itself was entirely suc
cessful. but on account of the advanced
age of the patient his recovery is con
sidered doubtful Mr. Black's many
friends will be sorry to learn that this
step has been necessary, and all hope
that his life may be spared.—Em len ton
