The people 1 of Sullivan county, will be proud of our new court justice building, when it is completed, too. The REPUBLICAN can give a com- j ■plete and official table of the result of election. elsewLere. The RE- J IPUBLICAN is always first to give the ( news of the county. Subscribe. The farmers are busy husking «orn. They report the crop not up to the average. The prolonged rain in May, and the drought in mid sum mer did muoh damage to the corn as < well as other farm crops. A breakage occured about tbe machinery of the Laporte tannery, oil Monday. Supt. Flynn hopes, however, to make it good this week, hence the tannery will not be shut down but a few days in consequence. A wash-board factory and a mine*, roller factory will be established at Soneatown, in the very new future. We congratulate our neighbor town in securing these industries. May they add many more to the list. A new kindling wood factory is talk, ed of at Lopez. We understand that the parties concerned have selected the site upon which they will build the enterprise. Lopez is the only manufacturing town in the county. With wheat selling at 54 cents per bushel, our baker should reduce the price of bread in proportion. The price remains the Bame as a year ago, three loaves for 25 cents. This is entirely too much and our people should bolt on the price. Through the oolumns of an ex change s scientist is trying to get up a scare that kissing is unhealthy. As long as there is a man and woman left on this mundane sphere tbis de sirable custom will prevail, no matter what the result may be. How about this Professor ? On Saturday November 17th, at 10 o'olook a. m., an administrator's sale of tbe estate of Cyrus B. Miller, late of Davidson twp., will take place upon the premises of Dr. J. H, Roth rock, in the village of Sonestown. There is a long list of personal prop erty to be disposed of, consisting of horses, harness, wagons, farming Vtentlli and farm products, Ths RKPUBMOA* did mnch to accomplish tlio result of Tuesday, and wo feci very much elated over the out come. Our Onshore oon temporaries made wild guesses on the reault of the state ticket in the county. Tho lie view said 360 Democratic and the Gazette 2f>o. The correct figures are 51, which is the smallest Democratic majority ever given at a general election in Sullivan county. The boys are joining us, you had better came too. # Lycoming county in tho Republi can column. She gives Hastings 327 majority and elects two Repub lican Members—Collins by a ma jority of 926 and King by 387. Rut ter of the Mail and the Dem. nomi nee is elected over Kilbourn the Rep. nominee. Butter's majority is 381. Leonard the Hop. nominee for Congress is elected. Cocuran the Dcm. nominee for Senator is elected. Our people will no doubt be pleas ed with the appearance of our new court room. It certainly is a pleas ant and a handsome room. The ceiling was completod this week and the workmanship of the same is com plimented very highly by all who visit the new structure. The mould ing along the out edges of the ceiling and over the judge's desk is very artistically done and attracts the eye on entering the room. Messrs. Levi Whitman and J. W. Blint, both of Williamsport, were the contrac tors of this work and have proven themselves experienced and first class workmen. Only Women Voted. SAN BEUK VRDRJJO, Gal. Nov. 5. The first eleetiou ever held in this county at which women only cast a ballot for candidates for county and state officers has been held in South ern California, and French, the Pro hibition candidate for Governor, is probably elected. The movement originated in San Bernardino two months ago. •'For God and Home and Native Land." was the motto everywhere in sight about the polling booths. About 20,000 votes were polled, al most all the ballots being scratched, although the Prohibitionists and Populists received many more votes than the old line parties. To prepare their ballots in two cases, it required forty minutes. The best time made by any female voter was twelve and a half minutes. Several disturbances occured at the polls because some ladies demanded the right to delve in the ballot boxes and fish out a ticket which had been voted to make desired corrections. When the judges demurred to this there were some exciting scenes and an interchange of harsh words. The count of the ballots is not yet com plete. The women will work to morrow for tickets successful in their own election. Teachers* LOMI Institutes.

The County Commissioners have very wisely, set out a number of nice shade trccß in the yard of the county jail. They have also replaced some in the Court House yard.—Danville American. Our County Commissioners should follow the example of our neighbor officials. FollowiLg a course of events in a friendly scuffle at the barber shop, last Monday evening, Thomas Ma baffey jr. had his head forced through a pane of glass, inflicting an ugly incision on the crown of his cranium. One ot the large window panes in the front was broken in a similar manner a few evenings previous. The shop makes a most jolly wigwam for the "indians." Auother Traveling Swindler. An exchange warns people against an insurance agent who is going over the country swindling policy holders. His method is to find out in what company certain parties are insured and goto them with the statement that the company which issues their policy has suspended and that he has been employed to assist in adjust ing their affairs. He will take great pleasure in transferring their policy to a good reliable company, aud in order to do this requires his victim to sign n slip of paper supposed to be a transfer, but in a short time it turns out to be a $35 note. While playing upon a moving one horse lumber wagon, loaded with potatoes, Master Feddie Vincent, of Dushore, met with a painful accident by falling to the ground and before the wagon counld be stopped, one wheel had passed over his right arm, breaking it below the elbow. Fred die's pain was excruciating before a doctor could be reached to properly locate the fractured member. There are quite a number of small boys in our town who participate most too freely in jumpping on wagons pass ing through the streets, carelessly unmindful of the sceriousness which might result in so doing. May Sue the Valley. A New York special to the Phila delphia Press says? It is under stood that -Mrs. Chas. Cummings, who was born Mary Packer and is the youngest daughter of the late Judge Asa Packer, has retained legal counsel to look after her interests in the Lehigh Valley railroad company. Mrs. Cummings is the last surviv ing child of her father, and under his will she is entitled to an income esti mated at more than half a million dollars annually. Some years ago she gave up her rights to the sum and agreed to accept $200,000 per year from her father's exccutois in lieu of her claims on the estate. This was done because the sum named was sufficient, in Mrs. Cum mings' opinion, for requirements. She has no children and only a life interest In the estate. For many years Mrs. Cummings has been dissatisfied with the man agement of the Lehigh Valley Co. and affairs have now reached a point at which she feels it incumbent to take steps to look after, and if neces sary, protect her large interests in the property. China lor Peace. PEKIN, Nov. s.—lt is reported that China is disposed to conclude a peace with Japan on the basis of a guarantee of the independence of Corea and the payment of an indem nity, the amount to be fixed by the powers. China has invited the rep resentatives of the powem to inter vene to secure peace, it is aUo said. It is stated that Viceroy Li Hung Chang, Instead of taking command of the First Chinese Army, as it was said he had been ordered to do, has been transferred from Tien Tain to Pekin. The telegraph line to Port Arthu was out yesterday, probably at the narrow isthmus between Port Adams and Talien-Wan, indicating that the Japanese are within a day's march of the Talien-Wan forts. Orders have been issued rescind ing the projected dispatch of large supplies of rice for the army to New Chwang. This is due to the fact that the Board of War has abandon ed all hope of staying the progress of the Japanese Army in Manchuria. Many Chinese merchant vessels have been placed under the German flag. The doings of the Ringsters of the Democratic party of Sullivan county, are most gratifying to us, and it is evident that they are the right men in the right place. Mt F.NNK ACT IN MULTt. Marriage Uwww »•» lUO*'®* lalll OfUkrr, InM. Attorney Willinm lleardon, la criminal court at Pittsburg on Tues day raised u point of law which amounts to a legal sensation, lie was defending Thomas McQuirk, charged with perjury for falsely swearing to the age of the womon he married, and Mr Reardon moved to quash the inditement on the giound that there was no BuchoSence under tlio law, as the marriage license was not in force and no license was re quired to be takeu out by parties who desired to he married. This laused Judge Magee to re mark: "Why, Mr. Reardon, you surely don't make such a statement in earnest/" "I do, your honor, and I can prove it. The marriage license act was passed in 1885, and was amend ed in 1893. By that amendment, on and after October 1, 1895, parties desiring to be married in this State must take out a license.' The acts of 1885 and 1893 were sent for aud read to the court. Judge Magee said that if the act was correctly printed Mr. Reardon was right and the present marriage license law would not be in force un til 1895. By agreement of counsel a certified cop}' of the act was sent for and the trial proceeded. The point is a new one and if sus tained will make Pennsylvania a regular Gretna Green, as any one can then be married in this State without a license. A telegram from Ilarrisburg states that owing to an error in the tran scribing of the supplement of 1893, to the marriage license act of 1885, the supplement does not go into effect until October Ist, 1895. li. was clearly the intention of the author of the bill that it should take ef«ct October Ist, 1893, but the tran scribing clerk made the mistake of writing "five" for"three," and the result is the delay of two years in the operation of the supplement. The error was discovered shortly after the Legislature adjourned, but it was then too late to rectify the mistake. The original bill on file at the State Department fixes October 1, 1895, as the date upon which the supplement shall go into effect. niphtherla's Sew Foe WASHINGTON, Oct. 25—The new treatment 0y inoculation for dipth. eria and croup as practiced in France is the subject of a special report to the Department of State by United States Consul C. W. Chancellor, at Havre. He savs that by this meth od of treatment only one out of four diphtheritic patient succumbs, where as the figure is double for other methods of treatment heretofore employed. Consequently the Consul who is a Baltimore physician of re pute, says that it would seem very desirable that tho anti-diptheritic serum should be introduced and Gome into general use at the earliest period practicable in America, where many thousand children and numer ous physician, students and nurses die annually from diphtheria and croup. The Consul gives in detail a biß> tory of the development of the treati ment by Dr. Pasteur and his assist ant, Dr. Roux, who has been experi menting with it for five years, keep, it secret until they had satisfied themselves of its cfilcancy and had selected the animal (t.he horse) best adapted to transform the diphtheric poison into an anti-toxine. A trial of the new treatment at one of the largest children's hospitals of Paris resulting in reducing the death rate from diphtheria from 51.70 per cent, to 24.33 percent. In addition it is stated that children are vaccinated with the serum in close contact with diphtheritic pati ents, Movements are on foot in different localities to establish auxil. iary statitions. The peculiar stone found at Beech Lake is on exhibition at Ferberßros. In a number of places on it the figures "1683" are distinctly tr .ced and the whole surface is covered with writing which has become so worn that it is illegible. A portion of one line reads "has gone onto" but the name and place cannot be made out. In another place "O'Mares I must die" is plainly carved. The stone is filled with shells and fossil iferous tracings. What a romatic story might be woven from It.— Wayne Independent. We are told that Mr. Streby, edi tor of the Dushore Gazette, got angry at some Democratic politicians on election day and did not goto the polls and cast his ballot. Mr. Streby and Mr. Cleveland are on a level in this respect. We did feel, however, that George mould take more inter est in Mr. Buckalew than this, but we were confident that Grover was not a bit anxious about Hill. | A Prohibitionist of Laporte voted the state Prohi. ticket nod for Far- I rell for Assembly and for Dunham forjudge.
