MfflLT HMD President Delighted With Reports From Chairman Penrose. PENNSYLVANIA WILL BE TRUE Ho U Told That the Keystone State Will Roll Up a Big Majority Next Month For Republicanism and Pros porlty. I Special Correspondence.] Philadelphia. Oct. 13. President Roosevelt's interest in the election in Pennsylvania next month was signifi cantly manifested in a talk with Sena tor Penrose, who was among the visi tors at the White House last week. The president made no secret of his feeling of gratitude toward the Repub licans of the Keystone state for the conspicuous part taken by their dele gates to tho last Republican national convention In bringing about his nomi nation for the vice presidency, despite the opposition of Senator Hanna and others, who were at that time very potential in the councils of the Repub lican national committee. Since the responsibilities of the presidency have devolved upon Roose velt there are no two men to whose judgment and advice on public affairs be gives greater consideration than Senators Quay and Penrose. CHAT WITH THE PRESIDENT. Senator Penrose's visit to Washing ton last week was not in relation to politics, but to close up several mat ters before the departments. His call on the president was merely a social visit, but the political situation was Incidentally discussed. The president wag keenly interested in the reports given him by Senator Penrose regard ing the outlook for a large Republican majority in Pennsylvania on November I next. Senator Penrose informed him ikat throughout the state the young itepublleans have taken hold of cam paign work as they have never done before, and this condition Is generally attributed to the belief that the larger the Republican vote in Pennsylvania this year the greater emphasis will be given to the fact that Pennsylvania is a Roosevelt state, and proposes to lead the Roosevelt column in the aiming national campaign. The action of the last two Republi can state conventions in declaring for the nomination of Roosevelt for presi dent and the adoption of resolutions expressing the same sentiment by the Pennsylvania State League of Clubs have nil been mo. t pleasing to the president, and when he learned from Senator Penrose the determination of the party workers to roll up an im mense Republican majority next month, with a view to affecting public sentiment throughout the country, he w«jj more than delighted. PITTSBURG FOR CONVENTION. Senator Penrose, as chairman of the Republican state committee, has decided to heartily co-operate with the leaders of the movement to have the ? ueit national Republican convention fceld in Pittsburg. He thinks every Pennsylvanian should exert himself to help along this agitation "It would be particularly fitting." ■kid Chairman Penms' that, with Rooaevtdt as the candidate anil a con tinuance ot the protective tariff the malu issue in the coming campaign, that the candidate should be named and the platform formulated in Pitts burg, the birthplace of the Republican party and the centre ol industrial prosperity of the nation There could be no more appropriate meeting place tban Pittsburg for the national con ventlon next year when w« will cele lirat* the 60th anniversary of the or ganization of the Republican party "With the delegates coming from till parts of the country, what an oh Ject lesson In the cause of protection would be presented in Pittsburg and the valleys of the Allegheny and the Monongahela'' "In no section of the country can there be given a better exemplification •112 the desirability of a continual)' •• of the policy of a protective tariff than In Plttuburg and vicinity The smok. and th« flames from the blasts ami the tone ovens of Pennsylvania should be enough to convince the most rail: il of the so called tariff revision ot the middle west that there must h au tinkering with the tariff to di business conditions and deprive ,\i ; van labor of employment, J>• t time when prosperity abound- MI Industrial enterprises.

"Is this the equinoctial storm?" was tho question asked by many Dan ville people on Saturday What is called the "liue storm" has no partic ular date. The biggest storm of the Fall season, which follows up I lie At lantic, coming before, about or alter tho equinox —September 22 —JS des ignated tho "equinoctial storm." Scientist tell us that tin equinoctial storm is a myth, that there is no more reason why a storm should be caused by the sun crossing the equator than by tho solar crossing of auv other geographical line. Yet the storm an nually comes "about this time," and the popular intelligence will always believe that its appearance is a reg ular eveut according to natural law- What is called meteorology is a termed science, but out weather ser vice is little better than guess wmk most of the time, anil hot as good guess work as that ot the farmer who is weatlierwise, or the old sailor who can forecast a- far as the government observer, or faither. The Washington forecaster promised us lair md cold weather (or Friday and Friday night. He told us of the coming of a Red River Valley disturbance, followed by a cool wave. We got the storm, which followed the lakes and dip) d down farther south than was expected, and struck an "unexpected" storm from the Atlantic, which has put the hike storm to shame as a little sprinkle. The weather niau couldn't get in communication with Old Neptune, and therefore not aware that a terrific storm was brewing and lashing in fury somewhere north ot tie West Indies or east of the Bermudas and destined to reach our coast and give the North Atlantic states the greatest wind and rain storm of years. It is the coast storms which do the most damage to our big Eastern cities, and our shipping A couple of months ago the weather bereau gave warn ings of a terrible hurricane on its way from the Gulf up the coast, and ship ping waited a couple ot cl »ys, and cities in dread, but the storm did not come. About three weeks ago a big storm came from the Atlantic unan nounced by the weather bureau, and scores ot fishing smacks, and vessels were wrecked and great damage was done along the coast from Cape May to Cape Cod. This was called the "equinoctial storm" by people, who insist on such a storm being caused by Sol crossing the imaginary line, then came other storms called equinoctial, but the tempest of last week was tlie king of them all.

Wilcox of Williamsport who have returned home from a two weeks' fish ing trip off the coast of Virginia, were tlie victims of the recent storm that swept the Atlantic coast leaving un told destruction in its wake. The gentlemen fortunately did not endure any great hardships hut their experi onct s are worthy ol mention. The party were quartered on Hog Island off the coast of Virginia, about a.'!. r > miles south of Baltimore. Thurs day, the day the storm begun, the paity were out on the broad water in a frail Hi-foot craft,piloted by a negro inhabitant of the island, who earns a livelihood in this manner. The fish were not biting and along about '2 o'clock in the afternoon when they were about five miles from shore, the dark heavy clouds began to gather and the sea got so choppy that the water beat against the boat like a battering ram. The pilot who bad seen such things before suddenly told them to pull in their lines as there was a "north easter" coming and that it looked as if thero was going to be trouble. The return to shore Aas made with post haste but not any too soon, for while the pilot was seeing to the boat the storm broke forth in all its fury. The rain fell in torrents and the wind blew eighty miles an hour. After much difficulty the ineii man aged to reach tlioir quarters whore they wore housed up until Sunday, as the storm continued that length of time and the island was almost com pletely covered with water all the time with the exception of the going out of the tide. The destruction on the island and along the coast, they say, was inestimable. A big schooner driven out of its way to New York landed at the island with the crew tied to the ma-ts and the captain to the wheel. The party caught lots of fish, they say, anil they are to bo shipped home by freight. TO OURE A GOLD IN ONE DAY. Take Laxative Bromo OninTabine lets.

FISH NETS SEIZED IN SUSQUEHANNA The Department of Fisheries discov ered an interesting fact in the seizure of some nets last week. Warden Mai loy was sent to investigate some viola- j lions of the law on the Susquehanna ; river, near Nencopeck and Berwick. He found a number of wing walls all in more or less working condition.but oulv one basket, as the others wore worked with set uets, devices that are entirely prohibited by law. He seiz ed thirteen nets witli meshes so small that nothing larger than a diminutive minnow could get through. He had been warned that it was dangerous to tackle the fishing apparatus up there, as the fishermen are a lawless set. and so when he seized a boat that had evidently been used to fish on one of the dams he was not astonished when ho heard unearthly yells from tho shore commanding him to bring the boat back. The command was further en forced by a double barrel shot-gun in the hands of tho owner of the voice, who also had a vest full of loaded shells. The warden rowed to the shore, when tho man said that he owned the boat, but had nothing to do with the fish traps. That heretofore deputy sheriffs had raided the dams, bat as the eel taking season was just before election the deputies only kick ed out a few stones that were easily replaced, aud never disturbed the nets. The warden, however, retained tho nets and sent them down to the department at Harrisburg. On examination at the department, it was found that the nets were made to catch anything that swims, and in some of them were found dead jouug stiad, about four inches long. This was an exceedingly interesting fact iu several ways. First, it showed that it was possible, owing to the excep tionally high water last spring, for shad to ascend the North Branch of the Susquehanna, getting over the dams at Clark's Ferry and Sunbury. There is at present a large number of petitions coming to the department asking for the construction of fishways over the dams mentioned that the shad may have free access to the upper waters of the river, and there is no doubt that they are very desirable. Bat the second thing shown by the shad in the nets is that the conten tion of the old Fish Commission for several years that .eel,baskets and nets are destructive to food fish is sustain ed folly. If the nets on the upper Susquehanna river, where there could only possibly be very few shad, have been killing the little food fisli, how much more destructive mast the bask ets and other devices be in the lower river, where the fish are getting more abundant through the stocking of the stream. This matter is one for the people who wish to get the shad up the river to consider. The shad is one of the most delicate of fishes. If only one scale is knooked off a little shad it will cause its death. In the river where those nets were seized the wing walls are so close together that they about cover the wnole stream and nothing can got down. That only two licenses have been taken out for legal fish baskets in Luzerne county and none in Columbia county shows the lawless character of th-.i fishermen up thero, and the poor chance the shad will have, if they are to have fish ways, unless the people who want shad build up a sentiment in favor of enforcing the laws for the protection of the fish. Toe Borough of Ashland has several lawsuits for heavy damage pending, all on account of tlio smallpox epidemic Mrs. Boruieisler has sued the borough for $25,000 damages for the death of her husband in the post hospital and Mrs. Thomas Clark, who was a patient in the same hospital has also brought suit tor a like amount because she lost her eyesight from improper care and treatment by the physioiati and nuises in charge. As a reminder to parents aud guard ians it cannot bo too often repeated that the school law requires the reg ular attendance of all children be tween the age of 8 and 16 years unless excused on account of sickness; pro vided, however,that children between the ages of 13 and It! years may be ex cused from attendance if regularly employed at useful labor and able to read and write English intelligently, There is still considerable boat in old Sol's rays. A GOOD THING GIVE IT A PUSH. LIVONA CAMP, PA, APRIL 21, 1902. MOYER BROS. DKAR SIR 1 think that every man that has a leant of horses or any stock, ought to have a bottle of Moyer's White Liniment in the stable or his bouse. I had a horse that stepped in a hole with his front foot, coming down the mountain with a trail of props, and fell forward and strained his shoulder blade. That it swelled so fast that we could hardly get the collar off, and in two hours his neck was swollen to all the skin would hold. We used your White Liniment freely,and in a few days he was to work again, and does not show any signs of lameness. It worked like magic. Respectfully Yours, J. A.
