W e the (4)ed Tewidara of Tioga ('o.
in (*unveil lion, assembled at Knoxville,
on the 1:4 11 day of Sept. 1869, looking
to the Supreme Ruler of the Universe
for strength and support in our efforts
to suppress intemperance, do otfer the
following Resolutions: Ist. cri kat the
use-and sale of intoxicating drinks as a
beverage, ever has been, and,ever will
prove a g rea t eurso to manlci id.
2. That we seek in this reform nuive
un lo build Op society on the true
basis of social and moral puthy, and as
by the con fession of all philanthrophists,
that the use of intoxicating drinks as a
beverage, has been the one great Camie
of misery, crime and poverty. There.-
we mall for its suppression by law.
That as this manner of treating a
public viee always has been, and al
ways will be adopted : thus gambling
W:IS denounced as hurtful to morals and
by law suppressed ; lotteries were ad- ,
judged and prohibited ; dueling con
dem iled and forbidden; slavery arraign
ed and extirpated. And for these rea
sons, we call upon ,all who have the
good of humanity al heart, to boldly
strike at this evil.
.1. That WO denounce as an evil, not
to he tolerated in an enlightened com
munity, the present license law, which
compels a Judge to grant tt license to
commit an aet that will increase crime
in any community at least three fold,
ami.whereas, the present law requires
Lite granting of said license to men Of
good moral character Only, thus deMor
alizing good men, if indeed such meti
would ask for so degrading a privilege,
when in justice, if - L it is to be sold at zoi,
it should be done without the sanction
of law, thus making the vending of iL
a disreputable-business.
That we earnestly call upon all
professing Christians, and upon all men
who earnestly desire to better the Con
dition of humanity, and especially the
clergy, to speiLk oht against this giant
evil, and thus help to mould public
opinion.
U. That we colder it, the duty of
the Pastors (a the 'ilitterent (Churches in
o ur county to preach at lete.t, one ser
mon in tittc . ll month, upon the subject,
of tem perapce, and we most eordially
invite theM so to do.
That we believe the power of pre
venting the crime or intemperance and
of reforming the young, lies in a great
measure wit lithe in Iluence of the Ldies,
and we Inge upon them as they hope
for happiness for themsefves and future
generations, the escreise of their influ
ence.
8. That we also call, 2111 d wilt Colltin
no to call upon all political parties to
nominate, not only temperance men,
but prohibitionists to fill thoseyoral
•
offices in this Commonwealth.
9. That we consider it a violation *of
tl►e principles of this Order for any
member to patronize any Druggist who
trines in any way, with the Druggist's
License Law, iii the sale of Alcoholic
liquors, it' the articles wanted can be
obtained elsewhere in their town.

A Syracuse iSaper relates the following
as an ineitleilt happdning - tho
.otheii
night at the Empire Hotel in 'that
city :
_ .
`Help! help! fin sutlbeafing! Get
me out! Quick ! quick! or I shall die.'
1. 4 3 ueh were the words uttered in sep
ulchral tones, that resounded through
the apartments of the Empire House,
after the boarders had retired to their
beds,. for the night.—Of course they
struck terror to the soul of the sympa
thetievinmates' and aroused their dor
mant energies to instant investigation
as to the source from whence thesounds
proceeded. Men soon rushed to the
windows and Undressed women ir to the
halls. Bells were rang, and se vants
and guests joined in the search.
Help! help ! 'rear down the. hOuso
Get me out,' continued the same mys
terious voice.
JOB AND CARD TYPE
AND FAST PRESSES,
THE MAN IN THE CHIMNEY:
Who aro you ?"Where are you?'
What shall we do?' 'Where can we
find yon?' were the interrogatories ut
tered by the bewildered searchers in as
many different l parts of 'the house.
' Here in the Plihnney ! choking, suf
focating, hcadThremdst down the chim
ney. 1)o get me out,'
. From room to room, and hall to hall
the philanthropist rushed, calling to
the unfortunate to be patient and they
would extricate him as soon as possible.
A dozen stove pipes were removed, and
mouths applied to the smoke holes, in
quiring the whereabouts of the helpless
being, - who could not, be expected to
hold out long in such a dangerous posi
tion. But still the yoke was from a

said a third, and am ay they rushed to ,
the staircase and soon the male ►nem
hers of the crowd were on the reef of
the Empire, inquiring at the tops of the'
several chimneys.
Where are you ." ti►►lidly; inquired
one of the females i n rlrslxttille,
tionsly venturing near the chimney
hole in her room.
Down here close by these won►eu,'
returned the voice.
The inquirer rushed down stairs, her
steps hastened by the piteous appeals
of the sufferer fin• help.
He is not here,' said one. -
lie must be toward the next room'
said another.
Why don't they get him out?' ut
ered a delicate voice, whose owner had
lot dared to venture out of her room
wfore. •
' It is a man?'
' It. is a woman
Who is it?'
WhaL is ir." passed in quick suc
cession from one to another, and gen
eral alarm and consternation prevailed,
amid which the bewildered woman
heard some say—
' It is Milo Rust's host!'g
amAying, dying, dying!' - faintly
muttered the inyt,,rious voice, and the
death rattle was heard, as though the - .
poor victim was about to give up the.
ghost.
Courage man I we will have you
out.llere, take hold of this rope,' anti
searchers on the house -top let, down u
~e s rope, protureu mr tilt t xu Z ,voc.
All was new in a state of excitement
unsurpassed. The auXiMl3 searches
heeded not the cold night Nilnd. Their
work was one of mercy, and like true
hearted men, they were determined that
no cliert, should be spared to rescue a
humtin being fr(on such an awful fate
if possible. •

'voice. Lower and lower down went
the rope.
_More fope, a little more, more, more
yet,' and the hearts of the rescuers
leaped for joy, while all gathered closer,
awl prepared to lend their ener g ies for
'a long pull, a strong pull, and pull
altogether.' •
A little more rope,' implored the
sufferer, but alas! the whole length of
the rope had been let down. A few
minutes, however, sufficed to procure
another, whieh alter :,plieing, was let
down till the voree responded, 'Enough
There, no,w pull.'
Cautiously, and with palpitating
hearts, the : , earelters edintnetteed rais
ing the robe—yards and yards of the
fibrous manticauttire were raised, but,
there was no Weight at the end.
' What is the matter? He is not on !'
remarked the director of I Ile ceremonies.
Ho must be dead, and let go,', was
the reply.
Hello!' yelled some one down the
chimney.
Ifelfo!' was rot urned from the low
est depths.
I'm out! Who,is sold came, also,
accompanied with a loud laugh.
The searchers could not believe their
ears,-mid - some one reinarked—'We've
lien hoaxed— regularly sold.'
4111 pawls at once gave up the search
whiehi had continued nearly an hour,
and made their %I - ay down stairs, when
they discovered that a waggklt fellow
in one of the I res on the first floor,
had caused the reaL 'commotion' the
Empire through, by poking his head
into his stove and talking tip the chim
ney until he got tired, and lahottglit it
Lime to go to hod. A more succes l ctful
hoax has coldoni been played up 'p a
household.
