The Woman's Benevolent Society will hold its last meeting of the season in the Thomas Beaver Free Library Building this afternoon, con veiling at i :U0 o'clock. EXPERT EXAM INES GULICK Dr. George I. McLeod, of Philadel pliia, a member of tlio State board of lunacy and one of the leading experts oil insanity in tho State, was in this city Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday to examine Double Murderer John Gulick. Dr. McLeod was sent lieie by the State board of pardons, to which body the prisoner's attorneys have appealed to have tho sentence of death tevoked and the prisoner seut to an asylum for the insane for life. Insanity being the only defence at tho trial it was also the main point set out in the petition to escape the gallows. Dr. Adams of the Danville insane asylum, testified during the trial that after several close examinations of the prisoner he was thoroughly satisfied he was a vic tim of a phase of insanity known as paranoia. Experts for the common wealth contradicted him. In justice to both the prisoner and the common wealth the pardon board decided to send Dr McLeod here. Dr. McLeod, after consulting At torneys .T. Simpson Kline and George B. Reimensnyder, the legal represent atives of Gulick. also District Attor ney Cnmmings Tuesday afternoon saw the prisoner in the county jail. He was with him about an hour, but found him very reticent. Gulick re plied readily to all questions that could l>e answered by yes or no, but could not be drawn into an extended conversation on any subject. The ex pert made a second visit to the jail Wednesday morning, at which time he continued Ins examinations When ti Dr. McLeod declined to talk about tlw matter, other than to say tl.at he found Hue prison* r both times ! in a very reticent mood.

March 4.—Tho statement published yesterday to the effect that the minors' representatives and the operators' lawyers would bo summoned to meet the Strike Commis sion at Washington on Thursday to discuss the question of weighing coal, was confirmed by Hon. Carroll D. Wright, recorder of tho Anthracite Coal Strike Commission, who said the conference would take place at 10:30 Thursday morning. It is stated that in tho coarse of their review of the testimony the commissioners discov ered several points upon which they desire further enlightenment.

All, or most ot the theatregoing public are familiar with the incidents surrounding tho arrest,trial and death of tho celebrated Piddle brothers in Freedom Lightly Esteemed. Two young fellows from Mt. Car mel, who started out to "rough it"to the soft coal regions, catne to grief in this, city Tuesday. They were brought to tho office of Justice-of-the-Peace Bare during tho afternoon by a special officer of the P. & R. railroad, who had arrested them, according to his story, while endeavoring to force an entrance in to a box car on Christian's siding just above town. The defendants, who represented themselves as brothers, gave their names as Thomas and John Kuskie, aged respectively 20 and IS years. They have no parents but live with an uncle in Mt. Carmel. Becoming tired of life in tho anthracite field, they decided to try their fortunes in the soft coal regions. It was for the pur pose of securing snug quarters free ride that the young fellows were trying to get into the box car. The charge brought was "Forcibly entering a box car and trespassing on railroad property". There was a good bit about tho young fellows that seemed to commend them to clemency and Justice Bare proposed that the usual fine be rem itted if tho boys would pay tho costs, which amounted to one dollar each, and immediately start on their way homo by the nearest route. The officer agreed to this, but the defendants, al though each had several dollars in his pocket, could not think of parting with thoir coin in this way and they demurred. They hesitated too long, however and tho Justice in order to facilitate matters committed the young follows to the borough lock-up with the hope that after a short experience behind tho bars they would bo only too glad to purchase their freedom, which was offered so cheap. Thomas and John Kuskie, tho two Mt. Carmel boys, arrested Tuesday for illegal car riding,who went to tho lock-up rather than pay tho costs, one dollar each, were yesterday removed to the county jail, whore they will be obliged to servo twenty days, accord ing to the act of May 24, 1878. Yesterday morning they were given an opportunity of reconsidering their choice. The young fellows are of Pol ish extraction and although between them they had some six dollars in cash it did not coincide with their idaes of economy to spend a single cent of it that might be saved, even though it were to secure their free dom, aud they decided togo to j;iil for twenty days aud live at rhe ex pense of Montour County. They will probably rogret their choice before the twenty days have expired. Death of Walter D. Williams. Walter I).

Dead Body Found in Creek. The dead body of Peter Roberts aged j 1.53 years, of Midvalley, was found ly i ing in Sliaiuokin creek, on the out skirts of Mt. Carnnd, by a party of I boys Sunday morning. When they first saw the body they supposed it was an old strike clligy and were not going to pay any attention to it. One of the boys, however, was more curious than the others and approached tho object, which was partly submerged in the water, and was surprised to find that it was really the body of a man. The alarmjwas quickly given and the body was taken to Mt. Carmel, where it was J identified. Roberts left his homo at Midvalloy ■ last Friday and was last seen alive at Mt Carmel on Saturday evening. Ho was then approaching the Market street bridge, presumably on his way to his home. The supposition is that he fell oil the bridge into the creek, and was swept away by the current,the stream being very much swollen by tho recent rains and thaws. The body was found several hundred yards below the bridge. Roberts was a well-known miner and leaves a widow and a large family. Funeral Friday. Mrs. Elliott R.

Fifteen students of Cornell univer sity have alreidv died with tvhnid fever, and a large number are now ser iously ill at their homes, while tho scourge is equally as bad among the citizens of Ithaca. Philadelphia is lit tle better,and the deaths from typhoid in tho Quaker city for a number of years is startling to outsiders, hut so used to it have Philadelphiaus become that no very special efforts are being made to secure the pure water supply that should obtain. In these eulight ened days, an epidemic of typhoid is not an accident hut a crime. The cause of the disease is so well known and tho means of protection against it so simple, that a community which allows itself to be invaded, and typ hoid to become epidemic within its limits is a subject of condemnation rather than of pity. In the case of Ithaca, occupying a healthful and salubrious situation, tho trouble arose through the mouoplv of the water sup ply by a private corporation. Investiga tion traces the contamination to a camp of laborers employed by the wat er company in building a dam. Other sources of pollution have boon discov ered, such as pig-pens and barnyards draining into the stream from which much of the water was taken. But the most suspicious feature is that of tho laborers' camp. It is stated that sev eral of tho faculty at Cornell univer sity, located at Ithaca, which gets water from tho same source as the citv, have a pecuniary interest in tho water company. And yet, with all their special sanitary knowledge available for the protection of the community, there has been a lack of tho simple precautions which would have insured safety. If, at tho first outbreak of the disease,directions had been sent out to boil all the water be fore using, there would have been no epidemic. More Riots. Disturbances of strikers are not nearly as grave as an individual disorder of the system. Overwork, loss of sleep, nervous tension will bo followed by utter collapse, unless a reliable remedy is immediately employed.

THE DOG WAS MAD The excitement in South Danville and Riverside over an outbreak among the dogs which was thought to be hydrophobia was by 110 means a scare involving a trifling cause, as at least one of the dogs is pronounced mad on 110 less an authority than that of State Veterinarian Pearson. A dog exhibiting symptoms of rabies passed through Riverside some six weeks ago. Several dogs were sup posed to have been bitten. One of tliq first to exhibit signs of infection was a pet dog belonging to Amos Wolfarth, who lives on a farm just below Riv erside. The dog was permitted to sleep in tho house and the first attack came on at night. Mr. Wolfarth arose to put the dog out. Not suspecting the true nature of tho dog's ailment he ap proached quite close to the animal with the result that he was slightly bitten in the hand. The dog upon being ejected ran amuck and is known to have bitten several other dogs. At Kipp's Run he was shot. The head of Mr. Wolfarth's dog was sent to State Veterinarian Pi ar son for a bacteriological test to deter mine whether or not the dog had been afflicted with rabies. A report was received a few days ago which stated that the flog had hydrophobia. This very conclusively settles the question whether or not there was anv hydrophobia among the dogs on flic other side of the river and establishes the necessity of taking every precau tion possible. These precautions should not he confined to South Danville and Riverside, bnt fake in this city as well, where the danger i« as great as any where. A wholesale quarantine of dog will probably be ordered in a few day- Mr. Wolfarth who was bitten will pin- e himself under treatment in the Fa-t --enr Institute at NeW York. !f is said (bat tint more than 'io per cent > 1 per sons bitten by rabid doge get hldrep hobla, while a till larger percentile of dogs supposed to l»' mad are no' all I leted \\ Itli ||M( I at <ll M Wolfarth, however, will lak' 110 ri»l,* Tragedy Atetlnd, "Justin the nick of l lute our liitle hoy wus saved writes Mr- W Walk in > of Pleasant City, Ohio Pneumonia had played sad havoc with hint Nit 111 l< 111 1111 l (Mllgh wet ill hesil'.

Standard Rules on Reading System. The American standard railway rul for operating railways were put 111 eil cot on the Readng-Jersey Central lines 011 Sunday and reports Monday from the operating officers of both com panies were to the effect that train men and all others governed by the rules had so far displayed an admir able knowledge of tho new system. The rules vary but little from those formerly in vogue on these lines, the principal changes being in the train orders and train dispatching. In an ticipation of the adoption of these rules the operating officials have de- Toted considerable time during tin past several months in schooling and examining those who would be gov erned by them. A Remarkable Case. One of the most remarkable cases of a cold, deep-seated 011 the lungs, causing pneumonia, is that of Mrs Gertrude E. Fenner, Marion, lud., who was entirely cured by the use of One Minute Cough Cure. She says:"The coughing and straining so weakened me that I run down in weight from 14H to 92 pounds.

We have bad enough balm in the air tho past few days to suggest symptoms of the spring fever as well as to in spire the hope that winter is about to vanish. This hope is likely to be dash ed. It can't be possible that tho groundhog has consented to chop off any of his time, nor is it likely that spring will actually begin so far in advauco of her opening as scheduled in the advances. It is still several days until March 21, the date of tho vernal equinox, and there is still time for winter to produce some disagreeable meteorological surprise and yet make way for an early spring.

Ohio Farmer: Each recurring season when straw berries are ripe everybody wbo has a j patch of ground wants to plant a bed J light away. Scores of times we are tisked the questions: "When is the best time to set them out? Can't I set out Ip bed now and have fruit next year?" i Svhen we tell the questioners that the best way Is to set out the bed in the I spring and that they will get no fruit till the following season, their ardor cools. Ilope is deferred too long.

Two years ago we became one of thg first to experiment with a real blowei f<>r tilling the silo, says an Ohio Farmer concsjNindejit, and then we "blowed things up." Not only the fodder.but the Tan nearly went with it on two oc-ca Biotis. We did lots of cutting. Last year we got a more nearly perfected machine and a ten horsejiower traction engine, with which we tilled eight silos, still having a share of breakage and delay, yet still in hope of ultimate suc cess. The manufacturers would ask what we eall real success. We demand a cutter and elevator that will take bun dles of fourteen foot corn on its travel ing feed and deposit the ti:ii lied prod uct in the silo at the rate of fifteen tons (o the hour without from < ne to three feeders skinning their bands and crip pling their backs to force big ears into choked rolls or straighten and pack the bundles even and thin on feed chain. \\ hen one tou of fodder is devoured in two minutes, it looks as if our demands were being met, but we ask how long this pace will continue. For several years we have used the corn binder, one at the loading and unloading and one at the feeding. Our force last year consisted of four team sters, one man with harvester, three pickups and two or three at the box. The past two seasons we have had no one in the silo. The fodder comes through tlie pneumatic tube with such vengeance that a little devising of boards at the top deflects it nearly evenly over the bottom of the silo. Don't leave this to care for Itself or you are likelv to have a mass of mold id en si la gu where the Juice and mash ed stalks fall. Have a good way to get to the pipe and fix such a stop as will Scatter the feed without mushing it up or occasioning the juices to drop. Another Important "don't" is not to cut too green The new man at the work can't wait, but must be ai his en silage. As a consequence he has a lit tle creek of hard cider running from bis silo, molding and smelling suspi ciously like some of the slum quarters in a city. On the other hand, don't leave cutting too late. If half th.- fo liage loses its color and the --tall, linns yellow, you may lie assured that ijo much cellulose is going Into the - lo Some Ant'ioiit flatter.
