In commenting upon the contest tot state treasurer, tbe editor of the HollV days burg Register says: | "Hon J. Lee Plummer, tbe Republi can candidate for state treasurer, baa the ability to All that office with credit. This fact cannot be success fully contradicted; besides, he is kiiown by the people with whom he has lived all bis life to be perfectly honest and reliable and a man of the strictest integrity. While not a Pro hibitionist. he is a man of the strictest' temperance habits. These are facta which canuot be controverted. He was regularly nominated in a Republican state convention, composed of dele gates who were chosen by the RepublU cans of the various counties of the state. "There was every opportunity for any man In tbe state to contest thai nomination with him. He was nomi nated fairly as th* will be through the votes of Republi cans Why should we aid them In their work?" A Word to 9tate Republicans. "The Republican party is not re sponsible for the misuse that has been made of It In Philadelphia," says the editor of th« Juniata Herald. "The truth is that it deserves credit for cor recting the wrongs that have t>eea com mitted by some of its faithieaa mem bers The corruption that has existed In Philadelphia is wholly of a local character and the party in the state haa no connection with or relation to it. Why should the party elaewher* eufler on account of it? Why should state candidates be defeated because of what has occurred in a single city? If the slns of a few were to be vlatted upon th« party when could it ever be suc cessful? The Republican ticket Is eom- ! posed of honest men, was fairly aoml nated and Is entitled to the support of every member of the party. Be sure to vote for it."

Very funny U la, from the humen point of view, to wltnese the love-mak in* of a couple of owls on a moonlight night, as thfy alt to fat liar on the cop ing of an old wall, or on the horisontal limb of some giant of the forest. Perch ed oh the same bough, or the same wall or ruin, the lady owl, though usually much bigger and stronger than her mate looks the picture of demure coy ness, if a little •excited inwardly, llk« a girl ait her first ball. But the male owl, says the Pall Mall Magazine, la very much in earnest; for 'a moment or two be remains quite still, then be putts out all hla feathers, bows, and utters a softened scream, followed by a modified hiss that is full .. of tender meaning, and then he nudges ' her with his wing; she opens her big eyes very wide, and gives him a side long glance that may be a hint, for, horrible to relate, from the depths of . bis interior he instantly brings up a half-digested mouse; and, although she is full of similar rodents and stag beetles as she can comfortably hold, she opens her mouth and aeeepts the fragrant gift wtth a murmur of satis faction that speaks volumes of love and thanks. Then, when the dainty morsel has been disposed of, they ca ress each other tenderly for a moment or two, and then sit closely pressed to each other's eride while the process of assimilation is perfected, after which they simultaneously flit away into the moonlight on noiseless wing in search of further prey. Not only do the owls guard each other with a devotion that la rarely met with among more favored creatures, they positively idolise their ill-favored offspring, for whose sake they willing ly risk not only liberty, but life. A young owl is not an attraatlve looking object from our point of view, but in its father's and mother's eyes it is per fection. and the way they wait on it, cuddle and caress it, feed it and keep been a huge interest iu observing the ways of these little imps, who were generally struck spell bound nt the night of the white men. Mr. TJoyd, writing in Chambers's ■ Journal, says he was twenty days walking through the great forest in j habited by the pigmies, a forets so | tlark tlmt in many places it was im possible to read, even at uooqday. The pigmies were fairly intelligent, and peacefully disposed, although their arrows were tipped with deadly poi son. They had a frightened appear ance. and covered their faces, Wee shy children, when spoken to. The forest was alive with elephants, leopards, wild pigs, buffaloes, and antelopes. After leaving the forest Mr. Lloyd came to one place Where he took the opportunity of screwing together the bicycle which he had brought with him. A spin on the machine brought out thousands of men, women, and children from their villages, and they danced and yelled with delight at see ing. as they expressed it, a European riding a snake- Whtttier Color Blind. "Mr. Whltfier greatly surprised me L>y confessing that be was quite color blind." says the Bookman. "He ex emplified bis condition by saying that tr I came to Amesburj I should be 1 scandalised by one of hiß carpets. It ' appeared that he was never permitted ! by the guardian goddess of his hearth j togo 'shopping' for himself, but that ' once, being In Boston, and needing a I carpet, he had ventured togo to a store ' and buy what he had thought to be a i very nice, quiet article, precisely suited i to ndorn a Quaker home. When it ar * rived at Amesbury there, was a univer j sal shout of horror, for what had ; struck Mr. Whittler as a particularly j soft combination of browns and grays ! proved, to normal eyes, to be a loud j pattern of bright red roses on a field ;of the crudest cabbage green.
