eternally )-p«tored tln* Ox and gave

"Wi ilon t know whether thl* Ox I*

Thomase* "Anyhow, we'll *rratoh

and scratched him for fair, which made

Tht-n tht-rp was the Fiste Pup and
hin Fellow Flute*—a whole litter o!
Fistes "We don't care how slow the
Ox goes," said the Fistes: "the slow
er the merrier for us. All we want is
to behind him and bite his Tail."
Whereupon the Fistei (napped con
tinually at the Tail of the Ox, which
nave the Ox a mighty iiiourufuluess.'.
Finally the Ox, pestered constantly
with the Fleas and the Felines and
the Fistes, got to looking sickly. He
stopped and lay down on his job, and
there was no more going forward for
him.
KEY TO THE SITUATION : The
town is the Ox. The Fleas and the
Felines and the Fistes are those citi
zens who criticise every progressive
movement and do everything they can
uTtheir petty ways to make the Ox
quit pulling in the right direction.
MORAL: Give the Ox a chance to
pull."Everybody holler, "Git up!"
Speed on the Ocean.
The Lnsitania, the mammoth new
steams-nip of the Cnnard line, easily
made a new record for the passage
from Queenstown to New York, l>y
covering the ditsance in five days and
fifty-four minutes,at an average speed
of 23.01 knots an hour. It was a re
markable performance on a maiden
voyage. Later, when the machinery
has lost its stift'nes and her engineers
feel safe in letting her out, the steam
er will do better, for she can travel
twenty-five knots an hour. Hushing
through the water at a speed of 23.01
knots an hour she was going as fast as
a railroad train at nearly twenty-six
and one-half miles an hour.every hour
of the twenty-four. It was a wonder
ful performance, but it can be beaten
whenever the owners shall decide to
beat it.
Not many years ago a five day boaj
was a dream,a hoiie, something among
the impossibilities. Yet the time of
tlie western passage has been cut down
swiftly. More than one day has been
gained in eight years, which shows
remarkable, almost phenomenal, pro
gress in shipbuilding and Jin the mak
ing of marine engiues. Eight years
ago to the month the Umbria, of the
Canard line, broke the record and
steamed into New York six days, one
hour and fifty minutes after leaving
Queenstown. Two years later and in
the same mouth the Teutonic, of the
Wiiite Star line put away forever the
figure six and made the passage in live
days, nineteen hours and five minutes.
It lias taken seven years to dispose of
the niuateen hours, but it has been
done. Indeed it has been more than
done; for the vessel that can steam
across in five days aud fifty-four min
utes on her maiden voyage can do it
in less than five days in subsequent
voyages,aud send the figure five to join
the obsolete six.
In another eight years, and perhaps
less, five days will not satisfy the
traveling public's demand for speed,
and the ocean will be crossed in four
days. It must not be concluded that
the limit of marine construction has
been reached. No ultimate of any
thingjias heen reached. The wonders
of today are but the curiosities ot to
morrow; for science aud invention are
only in their infancy. As these de
velop and progress the building of the
fast-flying ships becomes easier.
Where yesterday science groped in
blind alleys, there are broad high
ways. The mysteries of last year are
the ordinary things of today. In an
other ecade a four-dav voyage from
Queenstown to New York will be long.
On Sunday night, near Richland,
Lebanon county, Harry Haak aged 15
years and George Becker aged 17, sous
of prominent residents in the neigh
borhood, attempted to board a freight
train going west when an excursion
train came dashing along eastward
and struck them both,killing them in
stantly.
When the corner stone of old St.
Paul's Reformed church at Mahanoy
City was opened on Sunday it was
found to he empty except one hook.
When it was laid, forty-three years
ago considerable coin and other valu
ables were placed in it. When the
theft was committed is a mystery.
Robert Hartzell, of Allentown, w ho
pleaded guilty to twenty-three charges
of theft and arson, was on Monday
sentenced to twenty years' imprison
ment on four cases. On the three cases
sentence was sus]«nded, as the court
might have imposed an imprisonment
of two hundred years, but did not
want to sentence the prisoner for the
length of three long lives.

'l*e subject was the principal topic
of discussion at every gathering ol
veterans.
War Veterana Take Action.
I*he temper of the great body of
soldiers of the Keystone state was for
cibly expressed at a meeting held In
Philadelphia, when the following reso
lution was adopted amid an outburst
of applause:
"The War Veterans' Club of
Philadelphia resolves that In John
O. Sheatz, the candidate of the Re
publican party for state treasurer,
we have a true friend, and one who
Is ever ready and willing to serve
the veteran, his widow and or
phan
"We cordially indorse him for
the Important office for which he
has been nominated, knowing that
If elected he will fill the position
with honor and credit to himself
and a benefit to the people. He Is
an honorable and capable man,
with a stainless reputation, and
we call upon our comrades
throughout the state to use their
Influence and all honorable meana
to secure his election and make
his majority, as we believe it will
be. overwhelming."
General St. Clair A. Mulholland, U.
B. pension agent, made a speech, in
which he called upon his comrades to
do their utmost to disabuse the minds
of those old soldiers who had already
been Influenced by the Democratic
campaign literature and to enlighten
them concerning Mr. Sheatz's attitude
toward the pension bill.
General Mulholland explained that
Democrats in Williamsport are circu
lating a pamphlet in which Mr. Sheatz
Is malignantly blamed for the failure
of the passage of the pension bill.
Raid the general: "There was never
a movement more blameworthy: never
a movement more blind; never one
more. 1 jpight even eay more blas
phemous. than that on the part of cer
tain Democrats to defeat John O.
Sheatz.
"Mr. Sheatz is the friend. If they
but know it.of every veteran In Penn
sylvania. That man who blames him
for the governor's veto of the pension
bill is politically blind. Those of u»
who can see know that he had no hand
in the matter," and we are indorsing
him hero believing him to be for us,
heart and soul, all the time."
General Latta Speaks Out.
General James W. Latta also spoke,
and he used no uncertain terms in re
ferring to those who are opposed to
the election of Mr. Sheatz.
"It Is a singular thing to me," said
the general, "that while practically
everybody in this state is heartily In
favor of John O. Sheats for the treas
urership, a few old Democrats, sol
diers. the very men who should stand
by him to the bitter end, are against
him. And not only are they arrayed
against him, but they are malignant
and defamatory In their opposition. He
will be elected, of course, but I char
acterize it as a singular state of affairs,
and It Is the work of disgruntled Dem
ocrats."
Dr. Henry Bullen spoke, saying that
the man who fails to vote for Mr.
Sheatz stands in his own light.
Sheatz Stands On flecord.
Candidate Sheatz is eager that his
record in regard to the soldiers' pen
sion bill shall be fully investigated.
"I am glad for every one to know all
the facts regarding the passage of the
soldiers' pension bill and of the action
of the committee on appropriations, of
which I was chairman," said Mr.
Sheatz. "There are three men, mem
bers of the Grand Army, who are do
Ing their utmost to mislead their mora
confiding associates by using th«
names of their comrades in circulars
of an entirely different nature for
which their consent was given, and in
fact the name of an honored Grand
Army man which was naad aa praad
tent on one of tbeaa circulars not cmly
■ever attended such a meeting, but
when h* found that bla name was be
ing used to give strength to sueh glar
ing misstatements, immediately aanl
word that bis name should net be used
for such purpoaas.
Not a Party to Trickery.
"The few men who are making th«
statement that the original amount
named In the bill, which was <I,OOO,
000, would have been sufficient, are
making wrong statements, and the*
know It and do not deceive those who
have taken the time to look Into the
facts. We did everything possible to
keep the amount down to tV- lowest

uous thought becomes so dominant
that the effect of the dread becomes as
harmful as that of the unfulfilled re
ality would have been. Yet more ser
ious is the deprivation of aid from
others brought about by the transfer
ence of impression."
The fact is, worry becomes a habit,
and grows ou a person if lie or she al
lows it. It cau be overcome if a per
son so wills. It is not an incurable
trouble. If one recognizes the folly of
regret with appreciation of the fact
that worry is never over actual, but
always over imaginary ills, and is un
necessary as it is unwise and ineffi
cient. a long step will be taken to
wards the definite elimination of the
chief bane of mankind.
T eansvlvHciE Industries.
The reports presented through Chief
John L. Hockey, of the bureau of in
dustrial statistics,this year, while they
may lie astounding as to the extent of
t IH ir figures, are most gratifying to
every Pennsylvania!!, because of rlie
very immensity of the business the
groups of figures represent.
It has fallen to the lot of Chief
Rockey to j res;ut in hie first report a
summary of business which explains
the pre-eminence of Pennsylvania in
the manufacturing world. Far aud
away iu the lead in the matter of pro
duction of iron and steel,the Keystone
State is also the chief among the coal
mining commonwealths aud forging
to the front with amazing rapidity iu
the manufacture of that great con
struction material of the future—ce
ment.
No less gratifying is'the snowing
made in textiles aud silks, the growth
of these two lines of labor, which em
ploys thousands of women as well ns
men, being a circumstauco iu which
every son of Pennsylvania should take
| pride.
The general summary of the bureau
of industrial statistics for the year
1906 shows that 3,007 industries had
capital invested in them to extent of
$1)152,842,453; that the* value of their
production was $1,680. 168,053, and that
the total wages of their 754,988 em
ployes was *403,954,313. Returns from
litis textile establishments show that
they gave employment to 66,377 per
sons during the year, that their wages
amounted to $29,368,863; that <he
value of the production was $125,058, -
603, and that the daily wages of the
employes was $1.99. The 165 silk
mills in operation ill Pennsylvania
last year gave employment to 28,963
persons produced an output valued at
$'>0,456,442. and paiil out in wages SB,-
801,951. There are in Pennsylvania
twenty-two plants engaged in the
, miuufaoture of cement, according to
i this report. In 1906 these plants gave
employment to 10,178 persons whose
i earnings aggregated $5,161,569.

Family Reunions Are Wholesome.
Referring to the many family re
unions which are being held through
out the State, the Punxsutawney Spirit
says: "Family reunions are not only
very pleasant functions for those who
participate in them but are wholesome
to the commuuity and the state, be
cause they tend to stimulate family
pride and incidentally to promote good
1 citizenship. To glory in the noble
qualities of ancestors is to iuoite post
erity to emulate those qualities. Praise
of the dead eucourages the living to
seek to merit praise. All families that
have enough members to make an in
teresting reunion should meet annual
ly and tell all the fine things they
know about their ancestors, carefully
observing the injunction, 'Speak only
1 good of the dead' "

Hunters slll>u I<l remember that game
killed in this State may be had in jiob
session ouly during the open Benson
lor rucli game and for 15 days there
after. This i* the law-
No deer, milled grouse, commonly
called pheasant, nr ijuail. killed with
iu the State can be bought or sold at
any time. No ruffled grouse killed
outside State can be sold within
this State,except during the open sea
sou for these birds and for 30 days
thereafter. No wild turkey, or wood
cock killed either within or without
this State can be bought or sold at
any time. All other game can be
bought and sold in season.
The startling, the English sparrow
kingfisher, crow, raven, Cooper hawk,
sharp skinned hawk,great duck-hawk,
pigeon hawk, great horned owl,barred
owl, red or pine squirrel, raccoon,pos
sum, woodchuck or groundhog, fox,
wildcat, weasel, miuk and skunk, are
not protected and may be killed at any
time.
It is well that hunters should re
' member that the birds mentioned
above, in preceeding paragraph are
the only unprotected birds in this
State. All other birds mentioned above
! are considered game birds ami can
! only be killed during the open season
for them. All other birds, uot men
j tioned above are considered either in
-1 sectivorous carnivorous, or song birds
and cannot be killed at auy time.
The following is the bounty law of
this State. For each wildcat four dol
lars, for each fox two dollars and for
; each weasel or mink one dollar.
Special attention is called •to the
fact, that all guns, boats,and shooting
paraphernalia used in violating the
law, are declared forfeited, unless
I penalty and costs imposed be paid.
Shade Trees.
' To be sure the blight, insect pests,
the various scale, worms and caterpil
lars that infest shade as well as fruit
: trees, are not an encouragement to
tree planting, but the investigation
aud the methods which the state aud
national governments are making to
subdue or eradicate the pests lead to
the hope that with little effort on the
part of owners of trees we shall soon
have relief from the devastation now
i goiug on. There is nothing that adds
more to the value aud the appearance
j of a lot or farm than well grown trees,
aud as it will soon be time for Aut
, umn planting—the best season of the
year in the opinion of many for such
work— it is well to direct the atten
tion of farmers or owners of property
along country'highways, to an act of
the assembly of 187 V, which was men
tioned some months ago in The Morn
ing News aud which provides : Per
! sons planting trees on road sides to be
nllowed credit on road tax. Any per
son liable to road'tax, who shall trans-
J plant t ) the side of the public high
way on his own premises any fruit,
t shade or forest trees of suitable size
! shall be allowed by the supervisor of
j roads where roads run through or
| adjoin cultivated fields in abatement
; of his road tax one dollar for every
four trees set in; but no row {of elms
j shall be placed nearer than seventy
i feet, no row of maple or other forest
trees nearer than fifty feet, except
locust, which may be set thirty feet
apart: and no allowance as before
! mentioned shall be made unless such
| trees have been set out other year pre-
I vious for the demand of such abat
j ment tax, and are living and well
' protected from animals at the time of
such demand. If any trees shall die
: the same may be replaced under the
above conditions and the same amount
| will be allowed. The amount of cred
| it for planting trees is limited to
twenty-five per cent,, of the whole
1 amount of the road tax. This is a sub
{ ject that should receive the attention
|of every farmer not only throughout
| this county, but throughout the com-
I monwealth. It is a matter of pleasure
' for all persons who have occasion to
use our public highways and to the
farmers who take advantage of the
law it is also a source of profit.

wood pavement alnne ha* not deterior
ated and shows scarcely any sign of
the six years' hard usage to which it
has been subjected. On this evidence
the Baltimore authorities adopted
wood for the rest of the
street when re paved.
The "Taxpayer Magazine," of New-
York, recites these facts in an article
on wood paving. The unfortunate ex
perience which nearly all American
cities had with pavements of green,
untreated wood, which were laid
down, so extensively thirty years ago,
is not forgotten. It created a deep
prejudice against that form of paving.
In many European cities the wooden
block pavements were not discarded,
but improved and are still in use, giv
ing entire satisfaction. In New York
City they are being relaid in iutelli- ,
gent, scientific fashion. Baltimore is ;
convinced by its experience of their i
efficiency, and it looks as if the wood
en blocks were to have a new vogue.
When properly treated, block rave- j
ments do not, like their piedecessors,
become odorous and soggy. They wil j
outlast asphalt and maintain a smooth
surface. The creosote with which the
wood is charged is antiseptic in its
nature aud renders refuse upon it j
sanitary. The rosin keeps out water :
and prevents decay. It is, moreover, a
smooth, quiet pavement. Its initial
virtues all concede. Th staying qual- I
ities which treatment and the careful I
laying of the blocks give it as the
Baltimore experiment proved, are j
bound to rentore it to general favor.
High School Boys in Trouble.
A sensation, involving several promi
nent members of the 1907 graduating \
class of Shamokin high school, was 1
' sprung last evening when the young !
j men were hauled before Superintend- j
i ent Howerth and a number of school
directors, charged with the misuse of |
school fuuds eutrusted to their care.
The young men are accused of keep
ing tlie money which was collected for
The Review, a monthly paper issued
by the school. The exact amount
which found its way into their hands
is uot definitely known, but it is rea
| souablv sure that it exceeds SIOO.OO.
For two weeks or more stories of the
alleged misappropriation of the col
lections have been floating about town
but the charges, specific enough tor
street talk, did not tal;e tangible form
until a few days ago, when it was de
j cided to bring the matter to the atten
tion of the school authorities and have
the stories sifted to ascertain if possi
ble whether or uot there is any found
ation in them.
The meeting was closed to all ex
cept ' those interested," aud what oc
curred has not yet been made public.

Although it)noli impaired by tlie
heavy rainfall Hip oil put on tlm road
last week yielded good results and on
that portion of the highway there was
not mcrh dust. This section was
sprinkled anew- yesterday along with
auother section of the highway of
about e<|ual length. It in gratifying
that the effects oil the doable Motion
can now be studied under more favor
able circumstanced.
The oil experiment is by no means
unattended by expense. The oil, which
is a special product for sprinkling,
cost* the township considerably over
£IOO per barrel. A well-informed citi
zen of Valley township last eveniug
was authority for the statement that
it would require at least ISO barrels of
oil to sprinkle the entire stretch of
highway between the Valley township
line and the hotel at Mausdale. This
makes it quite plain that the cost
would be in a manner prohibitive
should it become necessary to sprinkle
the road with oil more than once dur
: ing a season.
On Monday morning Mrs. James
Landram, of Fiudleyville, Washing
ton county, was awakened by cries and
found an infant almost six weeks old,
on her doorstep, wrapped in a blanket
to which was pinned a note request
ing her to care for the baby as its
mother was destitute and had decided
to commit suicide. The child has been
taken to the county children's home.
