We have been patiently, tbongb
quietly watching tbo actions of tbolcould accomplish qnito as much f r
democracy in this campaign, and the! hita by simply votiug. for him nod
thing having como to a bead wo
think it about time to apply tho lan
cet Tbey have, to all intents and
purposes, settled on the election of
a democratic prothonotary and cleik
of courts in Soydor coonty. It is
not a ba J idea to centre their forces
on this one point which tbey seem
ao rery anxioos to carry, and it is
well worth their efforts, as it is not
only the most influential office poliU
ically, but a!jo the best paying one
in tbo gift of the pooplo of the
county.
It is not a little amnsing.howovor,
to read the plaintivo wails and tbo
child like pahver nsn1 against the
republican candidate. Tbey call biai
a man ' whoso riches are on every
side &.a " Do tbey consider it a dis
grace to bo wealthy ? If so why
was the present democratic candi
date nominated only after the posi
tive refusal cf one of the. strongest
and AtaHhiest msn in tho democrat
io party in this coonty ? Agiin, tbo
wail : "Why support him who did
not fight violently in battla array!"
This embodies bvl rramtsa? an t
VVOrso soniimont." If the writer of
this wish-wash is so anxious to elect
the soldier dement, how docs it
come that his party went in body
and son! to effect tbo defoat of oue
of tbo most worthy soldier's Snyder
county over produced, giving the
Beat of associate judge of this coun
ty, to a man who nover 6 molt pow
der f Besides our man was ouly
eleven years old when our country
called its mon to arms.
Far bo it from ua to say ono dis
rospectful word of the democratic
candidate for prothonotary. Ho
was a soldier and was woundod. Our
country recognized bis services and for tho ministry ; and, being in ia
pensioned him. He is a democrat !Ji'rttlt circumstauces, asked tuo aid
and holds tbe office of pont-mastcr'0' lLe cLurch io tho Prf"tion f'f
in his town. Our man bud the ben
fits of tho post-oflico in this placo
and lost it because ho was a repub
lican. Wo could not all be soldiors,
but we all strive to got rich,
Mr. Wittonmyer brt9 as clean a
personal aud political rocord as any
man in the county nono excepted.
Ila has been oue of our most consis
tent republicans, never shirked duty
and when weighed was never found
wauting. If tho demooratio party
can Bay tbe snmo of tboir man, tbey
can certainly be proud of him, but
it is neither manly or honorable to
plsy the baby by pleading poverty,
and ws do not believe him the kind
if a man to desire Bach an issue.
We therefore call upon tbe repub
lican voters of Soyder eonnty to be
on their guard. Tbe intent of the
deraoeratio party of Snyder county
ia to elect their prothonotary at all
baxards, and if it can be done by
trading and bickering they will do
U. Be aare that yon have tbe right
ibt4 IIm 4th of Not amber, and
liuw v
trinff a iboussna discotC" ito the tunnel
rmm their last ca&d.
It is natural that tbo Pennsylva
nia Democrats should try to tow
dissent ion In t ho 'ranks of tlio Hi
publicm. tliU fill sinco tint is I heir
only clmnco of of succors. At 8 mo
former opnch Ihcj would not buvo
dreamed of v'ctory in a state which
gave a Republican majority of uighty
tbousnud only n your n;jo, Lot
now changes nre great and sudden
and they do not despair. Tbo vote
will be light, nnd this in itself in
highly favorable to them. If they
cun divide the Republicans, they
thluk, not nnnnturally, that tuoy
may possibly win. It was by such
means that they succeeded in elect
ing Governor I'ntlison.
Uij for Innately fr their plans the
situation is thoroughly uudorstood
by the Republic tn. N question
of principlo is involved in tbo cue
of the funds of the State. If their
custodisn is honest and onderstaudi
bin btmiuoas be will attend to it with
ont regard to political preference.
The Republican party cannot be
"regonorited," or "'lifted to a higher
plane," or improved in any of tbo
ways of which so much iff heard,
by electing a Democrat to the impor
tant but non -political office which
forma tbo solo bone of contention
(Ionoo thoro is no logical ground
for the support of any independent
movement, except as a nakod pieoo
of assistance to the Democratic or
ganization. A few of Mr, Day's Philadelphia
friends tnav oniov such a move
L,ent all to tbemsnlves. but thev
saving nothing about it. It is true
that such a modest prooooding
would not advertiso their business
establishments, not bring their
names iutopriut, au 1 therefore they
may show commercial wisdom by
making as much noise as possible.
Outside of their own town their
measure is takon and they are not
splitting any ears but their own.
The Lutheran Synod of Contral
Ponusylvauia met at Rebersburg,
Centre conuty, September 30, and
continued uutil October 1 Hut. 3.
K. Miller, of Sugar Valley, was
chosen Prosidont, Rev. C. L. Mo
Conuell, of Teagertown, Secretary,
and Hev. V. II. Diven, reelected
Treasurer. A summary of the pro
ceedings indicate a good degreo of
progress in the churches The con
tributions to benevolence were
$1,290, showing an increase per
member of 2 J por cent. The in
crease of membership nag abont 300.
The Synod received seven ministors
from otber Syuodu. Mr. Romig, a
student of theology at .So'insgrovo,
after passiug a very creditable ex
amination, waa licensed to preach
tbo Oospel.
. The "'onion's Homo and Foreign
Missionary society of tho Synod ro
ported twenty auxiliary s- c etios,
five of which were organized during
the past year ; ulao that the society
contributed j30 toward the buuov-
olent operations of tbo church.
The Orphans' Homo at I.oysville,
Terry county, showed an encourag
ing report. The institution is do
ing a good work in caring for the
orphans.
1 be demand for more men for the
Gospel Ministry, claimod tho ear
nest attention of the Synod. Tbe
Educational Hoard bad four young
mon npon its fundi) during the pat
year, ono of them entered tbo min
istry. Tbo remaining three were
continued, aud far new applicant
presented themselves as can li Ktos
their studies, Tho great question
cf tbo Lutheran church is tbo uiin-,
isteriul supply, and the indications
are for a favorable answer from tho
churches.
A woman in Syracuse, ambitions
to show how long sbo could live
without eating, stuck to it until Bbe
died and conferred upon tbo world
tbo wonderful kuowlodgo that it
took fifty-nine days to starvo to
death. Just how much tbe knowl
odgo is going to benefit tho world,
or bow tbe interests of soionoo, or
good morals, does not yet appear,
and probably will not, untill tbo
oranks who are to hold au inquest
over her remains and publish un
meaning theses on what tbey find,
havo finished their work. If only tbe
fools who try such experiments wero
not supplemented by so toauy other
fools to make reports about their
folly, there would be fewer such exs
bibitipae. There is no immediate
probability of tbe fool-killer's mis
sion being elosod just yet.

pliia ou Tuesd iy inorniug. Whoo
the eclipsed monstroities bad been
introduced to Miss Josephine Myrtle
'Jorbin they were informed that she
hailed from Clnltanoigi, Tenn.,
and is sixteen yoaan old. The most
wonderful fact io connection with
this fronk of nature is that tbo fir)
has two distioct sets of limbs and
portions of two distinct stomachs.
In fact, above tbo waist she is onej
below, two distinct persons. Major

Mrs. Drnpe, of Utica, New York,
or near there, bad a husband who
was not an agroeablo companion,
and growing tired of the altercations
that were constantly breaking ont
between tbem, took np an axe one
day, wbilo ho was grnmblingly sit
ting nt the table eating, and witb it
split bis bead opeu. She then call
od upon her children to help, orved
him up into small pieces for easy
handling, and proceeded to burn
the pieces on tbe kitchen hearth, bo
tween tbo performance of borhouso
hold duties. This continued a day
or two, until tbo absonce of the man
from bis usual resorts, nnd tbe
denso smoke rising from tbe chim
ney attracted attention aud lod to a
discovery of what was going ou
Suo was tired, convictod and boih
tenced to bo bung. Now, it is said
that a good deal of sympathy is
growing up for her, becauso it has
been a long time since a woman has
received such a sentonce in contral
Now York, and her husband was
such a disagreeable man. It was
unfortunate, uo doubt, that her hns
band was such an unpleasant com
panion, but that is hardly a reason
for vtastiug much sympathy on her;
though bad it boen her bnsbond
who did tbe killing and she the vio
tim, it ii probable bis cell woold
have been kept Blocked with flowers
from the fair hands of sympathiz
ing women. All that is necessary
these days to make a hero of the
mnrderer is that bis crime shall
have enough cf ghastly and horrible
in it, or of tbo cowardly and croel
to make it notable. Mrs. Druse,
though, being a woman, will hardly
bo called on to bold leaves with the
admit iring flower-bearers of bor own
sex. Tho sympathy in thin case
will bo temperate and find its nttor

Nino acres of rock comprising the
famous Flood Rock Island, in New
York harbor, were shattered into
fragments nt 15 minutes pabt 11
o'clock on Saturday morning last,
by tho explosion of 300,000 louods
of dynamite and racknrock. After
tho oxplosion no traco of tho ret f
could bo found. Miss Mary Newton,
daughter of chief engineer, Qen.
John Now ton, touched tbo electric
b.itton which sot off tbe battery and
caused the explosion. Tbe shock
was folt at great distances, but in
tho vicinity of the explosion was
comparatively liht.
It is reported that lloswoll P
Flower, who declined the democrat
ic nomination for Lieutenant Gover
nor of Now Yoik, has sent bis check
for $15,000 to the chairman of tho
iJeraoctutio State Committee. Ho
wishes to keep himself solid with
bis party by sending that amonnt,
but refused to remain on tbo ticket
and bo defeated, besides boiug de

Tbo reduction of tbe prioe of
beer from five cents a glass to three
cents by some 150 saloons in Cin cinnati,
and the prospect that tbe
