That old ling lienr, the Borough Justice

Vroald be a great relief to our people, aa well

Wtrtt finally settled.
Thk lowest temperature ever recorded was
on Daoember 30, 1871, and was experienced
by Professor Cloioclion. lie was at Wercho

decrees below zero. The name la enough to
frighten almost anybody! witnont tlio degree
Of low temperature.
Dowx in New Jersey a week or so ago a
fire was put out with wine, and now a
Chicago fire haa been extinguished with
milk. In Dakota fires are again being made
With ooru. These new uses of food and
drink iudicate an abundance of wealth that
Romeltew or other ought to be turned into
prosperity.
The wheelmen say that there will be very
little change in the make of wheels this
year and that the prices will be the same.
The big exhibition at Chicago last week
brought out very little that was new. The
obalnless bicycle will be seen, but very few
will be on the market. Itiders are anxious
to see the new cbainless machine, and it will
no doubt be a great favorite next year when
the big manufacturers put it on the market.
Pbhsidbnt-elkct McKinlky haa insured
hia life for 150,000. He had to do it in self
protection. Over a score of agents have beon
after him almost constantly ever since the
election. It is said that Mark Hanna se
cured the coveted application for a Cleveland
agent who was a frioud of his, and that the
company which wrote the insurance was the
same one that paid heavy policies on the
lives of Presidents Garfield and Arthur.
The dissatisfaction that exist in the ranks
of the local Democracy, because of the un
popularity of the candidates and the ques
tionable manner in which they secured their
nomination, has becomo so apparent that
the "bosses" of that party hau resurrected
that old familiar chestnut, und place the
blame on the couforiee system of making
nominations. There is no question but this
antiquated system is tho causo of much bick
ering and divUious, nevertheless the people
will see that the Democratic candidates le
main private citizens a little, while longer.
Oue criticism upon the attempt being mado
ta further burden the taxpayers of Schuyl
kill county by tho creation of the office of
county detective, was favorably commonted
upon last evening. The Hazloton Plain
Speaker, published lu a county haviug a
county detoctivo, vory truthfully says:
"While private detectives are scouring the
upper end of the county in search of ths jail
breakers who conspired with Shaffer for a
jail delivory, tbe question ari&es, whore, ii
tho county detective who is paid by tbe
people for that service? It is a public
shamo that he h allowed to enjoy such a
sinecure. The ollicu should be abolished."
Much comment has recently arisen among
fashionabl people regarding the unusual and
even phoaomenal size of this new generation
of womon. In eight out of ten cases these
young girls are a full head and shoulders
taller than their mammas. Five feet eight
or nine inchos is no longer regarded as an
unusual height for a debutante, and this
stature is supplemented, as a rule, by broad,
Bhapely shoulders, a firm round waltt, with
harmonious proportions of arms, hips and
bust. Tho new woman from a merely
physical standpoint is not only fair to look
upon, but promises well, with her clear eyos,
rosy skin and steady nerves as a wholesome
mother of the coming race. Is this Improved
condition due to the tendency to more out
door exercise ? It is worthy of study.
The business men of Shenandoah recognize
tho merits of the Hbbald as an advertising
medium ; in fact, there Is no other channel
through which to reach the masses. It is a
welcome visitor to the homes, ior, the reason
that filthy and obscene litetuturo finds no
place In its columns. It is only necessary to
draw tho attention of prospective advertisers
to the large audiences that have filled tho
theatre during the present week. The
management of the comfiBiiy very wUely
takes advantage of the IIksalu's large and
Increasing circulation, and as a result they
reach tbe theatre-goers of Shenandoah. It is
just as necessary fer managers of theatre to
use tho columns of a paper that Is read by
tho masses as it is for the merchant. See I
Tjie New York Sun pays the following
compliment to the new Senator from Penn
sylvanias "The greatest piece of good fortuno
which has eeine to Harvard University now
for many years is Mr. Boies Penrose, of
Pennsylvania, recently elected Senator of
the United State. The Harvard man has
never been noted for the aggressive power
that makes success, as mush as have the
graduates of colleges where the intellectual
atmosphere is harsher and the rub of tbe
world more appreciable. During the unfort
unate Mugwump era the prevailing tone of
Harvard, as expressed by Its President and
other representatives, has been calculated to
make public life repulsive and to emasculate
all that might be effective for usefulness in it.
Mr. Penrose, who bos been a conspicuous tar
get fur Mugwump abuse, is the newest of the
few evidences that under tbe present aus
pices Harvard training is uo insuperable
barrier to public distinction outside of
Massachusetts. He is an honor to tbe uni
versity, which oaunot fail to be of bigb
material value to it."
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company, says

Fill a bottle or common water glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four hours; a
sediment or settling Indicates a diseased con
dition of tho kidneys. When urine stains
linen It is uosltive evidence of kidney
trouble. Too frequont desire to uriuate or
pain in the back, is also convincing proof
tlutt the kidneys and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge so often
expressed, that Dr, Kilmer's Swnrup-Root,
the great kidney remedy, fulfills ovory wish
lu relieving pain In tho baok, kidneys, liver,
bladder and every part of the urinary pas
sagos. It corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding paiu in iiassiug it, or bad effect fol
lowing use of liquor, wine or beer, aud over
comes that unpleasant necessity of being
compelled to get up many times during the
uight to urinate. Tho mild and tho ex

realized. It stands the highest for its wonder

The reason why Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets are to successful In curing tudigestion
and stomach trouble and the reason why it
never disappoints those who need It and use
it is because nothing is claimed for it exoept
what It wilt actually perform. It Is not a
cure-all and no snch claims are made for it.
It is prepared for tbe sole purpose of curing
Dyspepsia and tho various forms of indiges
tion. There is scarcely a patent medicine made
but what Is claimed to cure Dyspepsia as 'well
as a hundred other troubles. When as a
matter of fact a remedy to cure Dyspepsia
must lie prepared especially for that and
nothing else; and among all tbe remedies,
patent nostrums, bitters, etc, so extensively
advertised you will find that Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets is the only ono advertised as a
cure for Dyspepsia and nothing else. The
remedy la prepared by the Stusrt Co., of
Marshall, Mich., and for sale by all druggists
at 00 cents per package, and if you cuffer
from any form . of stomach derangement or
indigestion a trial will not disappoint you.

St. Louis, Feb. 5. The United States
court of appeals lias rendered a decis
ion affirming the Judgment of the lower
court In the case of the heirs of A. G.
Mitchell, a resident of Memphis, who
was killed by falling from a train while
returning home from St. Louis. Be
fore starting for home Mitoholl took
out 2,000 acoldent insmance, dis
tributed among seven companies. The
large amount of Insurance Mitchell
carried, and the circumstances of his
death, which occurred so soon after
taking the polloles, caused the Insur
ance companies to contest payment.
After one mistrial the beneficiaries of
the policies obtained a judgment for
the full amount which has Just been
affirmed. The beneficiaries of the poli
cies are Mitchell's sister and her
daughter, Miss Henri Chiles, of Mem

The man who awaken 1
, from a deep sleep, just
In time to ward off tti
otow o n assassin,
who, knife in han't,
Is preparing to
drive it into his
heart, ha b ii
a nanow escape.
There are thou
sands of grateful
men who have
aroused them
selves from the
lethargy of recklessness and neglect, just in
time to ward off the deadly assault of that
oreau enemv ot man Kind consumption.
The weapon with which these men hr.ve
succeiifully combated this grim destroyer
has been Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery. It Is the only known nu-diclne
that will prevent and cure couiuinntlon.
Taken in time, it will alwaywaid off this
foadly disease, and tvan after the devastat
ing germs have attacked the lung, it will
cure 98 per cent, of all cases. It acts di
rectly on the lungs, building up new,
healthy tissues and driving out all disease
germs. It corrects all stomach and diges
tive troubles, Invigorates the liver and
makes the appetite keen and hearty. It is
the great blood-maker, flesh - builder and
nerve tonic. There is nothing elae "juBt
as good " and the druggist who says so is
untrustworthy.
' I was a sufferer for fire or six years front Indi
gestion, sore stomach, and constknt headaches,"
writes n. Holmes, oi uanney, vpanannurg
Co.. a. C. " I tried several of our best nhvnlciam
anu rounu no permanent reuei. By me pentua
siun of Mr. J. R. Tolleson, a friend of mine, I
commenced on the sstli September, 189s, to use
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and ' Pel
lets 'which gave me relief In a few days. Since
then I have used five bottles of ' Golden Medical
Discovery' aud fire vials of Pellets.' When I
commenced using the medicines I could not
sleep, had a restless uneasy feeling all the time,
and my skin was yellow aud dry. I weighed
only 148 pounds. I now weigh 170 pounds, nave
a good color, aud rest well at nignt. I have a
good appetite, can est anything I wish. For
two years, while under treatment by a physidan,
I ate nothing but Graham bread.'
lu reference to the above letter, J. R. Tolleson,
P. O. Box 173, GiiiTney, Spartanburg Co., 8. C.
writes: " The above Mr. H. P. Holmes. Is a srootl
christian gentleman, and one whose word will
go a long way with those who know him. I use
and sell Dr. Pierce's medicines, aud I recom
mended them to Mr. Holmes."

Here nature basks in the sunshine of her own
beauty; 'and hero she has established hor

and pleasant way of crossing tho continent,
inaugurated a series of annual tours to Cali
fornia, running a through train of Pullman
palace cars from New York to tbe Pacific

these tours demonstrates tbe wisdom of tho
movement.

phia, aud Pittsburg, January 27, February
21, nnd March 27.
Tho first tour will ruu direct to San Diego

to disclose ths name of this person,'
but he Is described as small, dark and
about 60 years of age, and It is alleg
ed that he controlled Immense Inter
ests In New Hampshire. t
Richardson is large, smoth shaven
and of clerical aspect. His wife Is a I
medium sized, handsome woman of
about 3B. The man they are alleged 1
to have In their keplng was, It is as- ,
serted, constantly under the Influence '
of a powerful drug administered by
the Rlohardsons, who, while his will
power was broken by the drug, caused
him to sign checks for large sums of
money which they cashed. An agent of
the millionaire came here about two
weeks ago to And him. The police say
this agent saw the Rlchardsons, but
they had their victim well bidden and
told the agent that they did not know
anything about him.
The trio disappeared a few hours
before the detectives finally decided
to swoop down upon the house. The
detectives are divided in their opinion
as to where the mysterious trio have
gone. Some think they have gone to
England and otherB that they are still
hiding somewhere about Montreal, but
all fear that the Rlohardsons may do
sway with their victim.
