How to Treat n Wound,
Three useful tilings to liavo in
farmer's house as a provision iu case of
wounds not sufficiently serious to neces
sitate the calling in of tho medical at
tendant are a spool of adhesive plaster,
some iodoform gauze and a package of
oarbolated absorbent cotton. Cleanse and
dry as nearly as may bo the cut surface
with a wart of the cotton, using moder
ate pressure and elevating tho part if
necessary to check the flow of blood. Do
not apply any water. Bring the cut sur-
faco together as accurate as possible and
retain theni there with as few and as
narrow strips of the plaster ns will suf
fice, cutting them of a good length.
Then cover tho wound with a dozen or
so thicknesses of the iodoform gauze.
which should extend an inch beyond the
wound. Over the gauze apply a lllwral
layer of the absorbent cotton, allowing
it to extend beyond the gauze. The cot-
I ton may be kept in place by n blindage
JK)l cheesecloth, or a part of rt leg of n
staking may be drawn over it. Moder
ate pressure, if evenly distributed, is
helpful. The pressure of a string Is hurt
ful. Keep the part moderately elevated
and take care that there is no constrio
tion of the limb above the wound by a

"The Art tiuthoii.tTig tbo appointment of

pn-wil finally."
This was In the report of the morning c
lin of the State Senate. An attempt WM
made to verify the statement that tbo hill
had passed flu. illy, hut nothing further c.iulil
be learned. This is Senntur lat h's hill,
which figured so nntorloas'y a few dtys ago
In connection with Senator t'oylo'i bill to
have the county solicitor elected hy the
people instead of appointed hy the county
eonimislotitr. Itn ill le nmctnlRrcd that

been made hy the tw.i Senators to sceiire the

Instead of the commissioners, ehnll nppoint
warden and matron of the rmndy jail and
both hills are calculated to cnrinil the In
fluence and appointive power of the com
mindoners. The fliwl passage oi this bill In
the Senate shows one of two conditions.
Either Seuator Coyle did not break with
Senator Losch after be found that the comity
commissioners would not accept his offer to
fight both bills if he could name an official la
their cilice, or the Major was strong enough
by himself to get his measure through. The
bill now goes to the House and there its fate
will he doubtful. Even if it should pass the
House, tbo Governor's signature will be
needed to make it a law.
The county solicitor bill Is still In the
Henate. What It fate will lie cannot It con
jectured as it is nut known whether the two
Senators are koeping faith with each other in
their nnhnly alliance. Coyle has asserted in
bis Mahanoy City paper that lie will make
the bill a la w, but everything he prop'iesies
does not always come true.

The bnreau of mines bill was presented in
the House, at Harrisbiirg, by Mr. Mansfield
on January 85. It provides that the bureau
shall le established in the Department of In
ternal Affairs and is to have supervision
of the execution of the mining laws and
the publication of the mine inspectors' an
nual reports. The Chief of tho Bureau
shall be appointed by the Governor upen
the recommendation of the Secretary of
Internal Affairs for four years. He will
receive a salary of $2,000 and must he a
competent mining engineer of at least ten
years' experience. The chief must devote
all his time to the duties of the office and
see tbst the mining laws are faithfully
executed and is invested with the name
power and authority as the mine inspectors
to enter and Inspect any mine iu the state
and the machinery and works thereof.
Should ho receive Information by petition
signed by ten or more miners of neglect of
duty or incompetence of any mine inspector
he shall investigate and shall plaee the mat
ter before court for further Investigation if
he is satisfied that tho charges are based ou
good grounds. Tho Secretary of Internal
Affairs is erapowoied to appoint an assistant
chief at a salary of $1,800 per annum and a
stenographer and typewriter at n salary of
$1,300. This measure is different from tho
Coylo hill, in that It creates less ofllces and
has tho approval of the Governor and mine
inspectors.

Ilrlef Nkctrh of YV. II. Audrrns, l'rlste
Secretary to Senntor Penrose.
Schuylkill county visiters to tho United
States Senate, during 'lie Itiniisural cere
monies, were greatly pleiscd to And that
lion. Holes Penrose, the new 1'nltcd States
Senator from this stnte, had fclertcd W. R.
Andrews as his private sc. rctnry. He Is well
and favorably known by every political
leader or promlnt nee in the st.itc, slid for
many yenrs 1ms becu editor of the Mcadvllle
Trlbuuc ltejiiililh nn. the t I'inch lieinhllean
paper of tlmt noil urn of the vtite.
Mr. Andrews served in the Nineteenth
Army Corps during the War of the Kebslltoh
and is a member of (-'argenut Pel fie r Past
881, (. A. R , Department of Pennsylvania,
and his appointment has naturally been
gratefully received by the veteran who
snpported Mr. Penrose.
It is, however, in tho work of the Repub
lican organisation of Pennsylvania that Mr.
Andrews Is best known, lie has never been
an applicant for nor held salaried political
office of any kind. Be was one of the
strongest supporters of Sonntor Qnay hi the
celebrated chairmanship struggle of 1898,
ami at the close of that contest was offered
and accepted the position of secretary of the
Republican State Committee. He was re
appointed by Senator Quay last year and
bold the same position at present under
Chairman Elkln. In the last campaign he
was recognised ns one of the most valuable
aids of the organisation.
Nowhere in the Mate 1ms Mr. Andrews a
stronger hold upon the party voters than in
Schuylkill county, and tho Herald joins
them in congratulating Senator Penrose
upon his choice of such an efficient and pop
ular confidential assistant.

LINOOLN'8 BOYHOOD.
A riaymato Who Saved Hlin From Booth
by Drowning.
The oblld's life during the time the
family lived In Kentucky Hp nnrs to have
been entirely uneventful. lie helped his
mother after he was 8 years old In tho
Simple household duties, wont to tho dis
trict sch'Kil and played with tho children
of the noitthbnrhood. The only ono of
jiiiiiu! Lincoln's playmates nowlhlnptls
tin old man, nearly 100 yours old, named
Amlin (lnlli her, whose mind is bright
nnd dear, n!id w ho never tin s of tolling
of the days Lincoln and he "were little
tikes nnd plnyul together." This old man,
who yet lives in the log house in which he
linn always lived, a few mllos from the old
Lincoln place, tells entertaining stories
nbout the pn-ident's boyhood.
Mr. fliiUnher snys that they wore togeth
er more than the other boys In school, that
he lieonme fond of his little friend, and ho
bcllevod tlint Alie thought a groat deal of
him.
In spooking of various events of minor
Importance in thoir boyhood days Mr. Gol
laher remarked, "I once saved Lincoln's
life." TTpon liolng urged to tell of tho oo
onrrcnoc he thus related It: "Wo had been
going to school together oue year, but the
next year we lir.d no school because there
were bo few scholars to attend, there be
ing only about 80 in the sohool the year bo
fore. Consequently Abe and I had not
much to do, but as we did not go to school
Hnd our mothers were strict with us we
iHd not get to seo each other very often.
One Sunday morning my mother waked
me up early, saying she was going to see
Mrs. Lincoln, and that I could go along.
Glad of the olianco, I was soon dressed and
ready to go. After my mother and I got
there Abe ami I played all through the
day. While wo were wandering up and
down the little stream called Knob creek
Abo said: 'Bight up there,' pointing to
the east, 'we saw a covey of partridges yes
terday. Let's go over ami get some of
them.' The stream was swollon nnd wo
too wide for us to jump across. Finally
wo saw n narrow footing, nnd wo con
cluded to try it It was narrow, but Abe
said, 'Let's coon It,'
"I want first and readied the other side
all right. Abowent nbout half waynoross,
when ho got soared and bogan trembling.
I hollered to him, 'Bou't look dawn nor
up, nor sideways, but look right nt me
and hold on tight' But he fell off into the
creek, and as the water wan about seven or
eight feet deep, and I could not swim, and
neither could Abo, I knew It would do no
good for mo to go in after him. So I got n
stick a long water sprout and hold ltout
to Ulm. lie came up, grabbing with both
bunds, and I put the stick into his hands.
He ohmg to It, nnd I pulled him out on
the bank, almost dead. I got him by tho
arms ana snook mm well ana then rolled
hlin on the ground, when the water pour
ed out of his mouth. He was all right vory
soon, wo promised each other that -we
would never toll anybody about It, and
never did for years. I never told any one
of It until after Lincoln was killed."
