We gave the court proceedings last woek, our contemporaries give them this week, or two weeks late. For news when fresh, have your name placed on the REPUBLICAN subscription book. The ignoring of so many bills by the Grand Jury this session is only in evidence that Justices of the Peace arc too liberal in their com mittals. This should be an index to those officers. Secy.

The delicacy as to mentioning the age of women is no piece of modern sensitiveness. In the old Testa* rnent, though great numbers of women are mentioned, there is but one—Sarah, Abraham's wife—whose age is recorded. At a campmeeting recently held iu the upper portion of York county a card was tacked on a post near the entrance gate : "No cursing or swearing will be allowed within ten feet of the stand, by order of the committee." A prudent man always looks through liis pocket at least halt a dozen times before handing his eoat to his wife to have a button sewed on, and even then he is filled with a nameless dread till the job is completed. The tight is on iu Ohio. The battle has opened in earnest between the champions of American ideas. American progress and American in dependence and the advocates of the starvation wages platform that menaces every toiler in the laud with poverty and degradation. The N. Y. Life and Mutual In surance Cos have given notice to those who have made of them bond and mortgage loans that the rate ol interest will hereafter be six per cent. That looks like putting an extra squeeze on a man when he is caught in a tight place. Upon breaking open an egg laid by one of her hens a few mornings ago, Mrs. Clemuel McHenry found a second egg inside the first. It was about the size ol a large red cherry, had a perfect hard shell, with yolk and white, the same as the regular lien-fruit except as to >ize.— Benton - I rffits. Well, it seems everybody is going to the World's Fair except the editor. He could go too, it delinquent subscribers would only pay up, but we guess that never will be.

Mr. and Mrs. Farris who spent the summer at Laporte and guests of the Mountain House, left for Milton last week, where they wiii spend the winter. Mr. and Mrs. Farris have enjoyed tho summer seasons at Laporte for the past sever al years. They admire the beauties of Laporte during the heated season of the year. They are always wel coine visitors. It is reported that not long since a prominent farmer residing near Cauibra, went to tho field and be gan plowing on a Sunday morning. One of his neighbors noticing him hard at work, went out aud in formed hi in that it was Sunday, whereupon he lost no time in un hitching his team and returning to the barn. He, no doubt, will pay closer attention to his almanac in the future. Electricity for oooking purposes is among the exhibits at the World's Fair, and those who have examined into the method are loud in their praise of it. Meats are prepared in a few minutes on tho electric stove and all that is necessary, where the electric stove is in use, is to turn a button and llio cook has a stove heated quicker than by any other method —no ashes, no smoke, no gas and no dirt. No journalist has yet been found with sufficient courage to print the remarks of a man who fell over a whoel-barrow, or ran down a rock ing chair while scudding about in the dark after the paregoric bottle with which to dose the squallin baby. On such occasions he is generally too full for utterance, anil his remarks savor too much ot in coherency to permit their publica Lion. It is to be hoped that John Gotie the Celestia frenchman, will get law enough pretty soon. It lias onh been in tho neighborhood ol six months, or so, that lie knew there was such a thing as law, but lie has made double use of it since that time. In all of his cases brought how ever he has been required to pay all costs of prosecution except one where the costs were divided. Thi was on Saturday when lie sued Baker for trespass. Railroad cars can now be clectii cally lighted, says an exchange. Tin car axle is tbe source of power, and. by use of friction cones, uniform speed of dynamo and consequently of light, is maintained. Besides the dynamo, there are storage batteries to be used when the speed of the car lulls below seven miles an hour. The weight of dynamo and battery is 1,000 pounds. There arc twenty - five eight-candlc lamps in the car. Electricians and railroad men art greatly interested in this invention. Slew Mullous. The Williamsport A' North Branch R. 15., have placed in the hands of Mr. A. Little of Eagles Mere, the work of building the stations for Laportc, Satterlield, Ringdale and Nordinont.

A hotel keeper at Elmira recently presented bar bills against several employes ot the D L. & W. rail road, whereupon the said employes were promptly' discharged.

The land caso of Long & Liggett vs. the Lohi'ih Vally railroad to determine tho location ot valuable coal lands along the line of the Beech Creek railroad and which oc cupied the attention of the Centre county court all of last week was given to thcj iry Friday. A verdict was rendered in favor of the Le high Valley. The history of this case goes back to the year 1885, when Clinton Lloyd, Esq., then of Williamsport, but now of Washing ton, brought suit against the Le high Valley Coal Co., to recover the possession of lands located in Snow Shoe township, Centre county, com prising four tracts of about 2,000 acres in all.— J'Jx. On Tuesday lust Uic work of tearing down llie Court House was begun by a force of men under the supervision of the County Com missioners. This building which was erected about the year 1851 or 2, and which had been .used for court purposes until condemned by a competent architect, lias been found to he inn very bad condition. The brick ol which the building is composed is of i very inferior quality, beiug so soft that they can easily be crumbled under foot. The dangerous condi tion of said building, has, in a measure, been known for years, and teps were early taken to prevent i'.s collapsing by having a number »112 iron rods placed through it. Bui this step was not successful, and after two successive grand juries having recommended the construc tion of a new building for court purposes together with the approval of the court, which was requisite, the commissioners promptly pro ceeded to carry into effect the above recommendation. Though but six lays have been spent working at it the work has progressed very rapidly, having torn down the up per story and part of ttie second tnd removed the debris. What ever is of any value is care fully saved, but it will not be pos sible for the county to realize very much from this material. It is to be hoped that the sue censors of Messrs. Meliride, Cheney and Scanliu, tho present board ol commissioners, will show tho same degree of promptness in completing all work that may be unfinished up on their advent into office, and there by merit the thanks of the citizens of this county as the above named gentlemen have done. A CITIZEN. L iporte. Pa., Oct. 2, ls'.Ki. LAI'OUTB, Oct. 3, 1893. Years ago at the organization of Sullivan county, and the selection of this as the county seat, all sorts of stoiies were told I Liporte.

The superintendent of public in struction received a communication Wedcesday from a prominent citi zen of Tunkbannock, says the Wilkesbarre /, eadcr , informing hint lliat in Root llollow, a thriv ini» lumber camp about five mileb from that place, "there arc no school board in the camp because there arc not enough persons who can read or write to form one. '1 hero is 110 school there to attend and a community is being allowed to come up within a half hour's drive of Tunkbannock, the count) seat of Wyoming county, without proper instruction as to the ex istence of a God or Savior and of the requirements of good citizen ship, and, of course, good morals." Dr. Schaefler says this is one of the most deplorable state of aflairs he lias ever heard of and ho has in structed the superintendent ol schools of Wyoming county to in vestigate the matter and report to him promptly.
