Editor Parker's ono aim appears to be to
cater to the wishes of his readers. The

Thkri Is an apparent effort ou the part of
certain Democrats in this county to re
organize the party aud exclude those who
supported Palnierandlluckner. To anybody
who has read recent political history aright
the claim of the Bryanltes to represent the
true Democracy, heart and soul, boots and
breeches, must have seemed absurd. The
absurdity is heightened by time. As theso
March days go by and lengthen, tho pre
tensions of the Ilryaultee diminish. I)e
in oc racy may still stand for heresy, foolish
ness, dishonesty aud all other evils, but it
does not stand for Bryan. Of course, the
Utter says otherwise, but Bryau will say

There have been several efforts made by
property owners and others to organiio a
home tire insurance company iu Shenandoah,
hut lor some reason or other these efforts
have failed. Shamokin and Ashland both
have such a company, and have not ouly
greatly reduced the rates charged by stock
companies, but are insuring properties and
goods at half the rates formerly charged.
Now Mt. Carmel has inaugurated a move
ment for the formation of a home company,
aud a number of business men aud prujwrty
owners have effected a temporary orgaui
tiou for the purpose of securing the subscrip

law, for the obtalnlug of a state charter.
The amount required is $200,000. There are
inauy benefits that would accrue to the town
from such an Institution.
In overruling the motion to quash the bills
against Lawyer Wiutersteeu and Clifton
Kuorr, indicted for conspiracy against the
family of ex-Bepreseutative Waller, at
Blooinsburg, Judge Metager's decisiou is of
much interest to the legal profession in
general. The principal grouud laid in the
motion to quash is that upon the preliminary
hearing before Justice Clark, the defuudaut
was nut given au opportunity to be heard in
his uwu behalf. It was claimed that (hit was
a violation of the act of 1887. Judge Neta-
ger doiidos that the hearing of the de
fendants' wituesses ill a preliminary bcriug
is matter of discretion ou the pait of the
Magistrate, who bos ouly to satisfy himself
of the piubable guilt of the accused, then re
quire bail or commit for trial. This disposes
of the technicalities iu the case, aud the de
fendants will now be required to plead to the
Indictment, inri the case may be tried at a
special term of court to be held in May.

Georgetown, Del., March 15. James
M. Gordy Is under arrest here charged
with killing the woman whose dead
body was found in Broadklln creek
last week. It is believed that he had
recently married the woman, and
murdered her to get possession of her
money. She was Mrs. Mary Lewis, a
widow, of New York, The prisoner,
who Is about 30 years old, has followed
farming for a living, and is supposed
to be worth considerable money. He
is an ignorant man, however.
The excitement was considerably In
creased yesterday by the discovery of
additional evidences that seem to point
conclusively to Qordy's guilt. The
room occupied by him on his farm was
searched, and between the mattress
was found a hand satchel, a curling
Iron, a hammer and a woman's glove.
The latter corresponded to the one
found on the dead woman, and the
satchel was Identified by those who
saw the woman on the train with
Gordy as similar to the one she car
ried. The rings found on Gordy are
believed to be the ones that tho woman
is said to have showed in New York.

Washington, March IB. The Fifty
fifth congress met In extraordinary
session at noon today In pursuance of
President McKrnley's proclamation.
The work before It the passage of a
tariff bill Is pretty well cut out In
advance, but tig Indications are that
It will be a Ittrmv session, and its
length and acop are as yet mere mat
ters of speculation. The present secre
tary of state, Mr. Sherman, remarked
several years ago on a memorable oc
casion In the aenate that the presi
dent, like Alladin, could rub the lamp
and cause the genii to appear, but that
once they had appeared they were mas
ters of their own destinies. So that
congress, once in session, may go much
further or not So far as the president
may wish.
The first bminess In order in the
house after the formal opening was the
election of officers of the Fifty-fifth
congress, and, tn accordance with the
action of the Republican caucus on,
Saturday night, all the old officers were
re-elected, as follows: Thomas B. Heed,
speaker; Rev. Henry M. Couden, chap
lain; Alexander McDowell, clerk; Ben
jamin F. Russell, sergeant-at-arms;
W. J. Glenn, doorkeeper; Joseph C. Mc
Blroy, postmaater. The complimentary
vote of the Democrats was cast for
John Vf. Balls, .of Texas.
So far bf the house Is concerned, the
present determination of the leaders Is
to direct the energies of the lower
KILSOJt Mi. I I 1 Ji!
branch to the accomplishment of the
task before ft with all expedition, and
throw tha -rfSKiensibllity for any com
plications WxttBtt may arise out of de
lays In tho 49tenate upon that body.
This was tnse manliest by Speaker
Iteed's spssjatfeyt the lie-publican cau
cus, when IVsiapoke of the necessity of
bringing tlisyJKWk of the session to a
speedy clos .Whether the leaders
will emphasise any inaction by the
senate when the bill reaches that body
by a. program of three day recesses re
mains to be seen, but It seems likely
that the speaker will, at least for the
present, refrain from appointing any
but the actual committees necessary
for the transaction of the business in
hand.
Thlfk will prove an effective bar to
the passage of miscellaneous or general
bills, as the rules of the house are such
that all legislation must come through
the agencies of the committees. But
even this Is not absolutely necessary,
as the committee on rules can bo in
voked to furnish special orders. And
It Is by means of special orders that
the apropriatlon bills which failed to
receive Mr. Cleveland's approval are
to be put through at the extraordinary
session. Consideration In committee
would involve great delay, and result
besides In almost Interminable debate
In the house, as It Is the peculiar char
acteristic of a new house to use every
opportunity to talk. Mr. Cannon, the
chairman of the appropriations com
mittee, says that the hills as they went
to Mr. Cleveland are all right, and he
favors their repassage under special
rules, without the formality of again
putting them through the regular chan
nels. This will be the plan followed,
and all the time before the actual de
bate on the tariff begins will be de
voted to the appropriation bills.
The new tariff bill, upon which Re
publican members of the ways and
means committee have been working
laboriously fbr three months, was for
mally Introduced today. It will be
printed and submitted to the Demo
cratic minority, and receive formal
consideration by the full committee. It
.la not expected that this will require
more than three or four days at most,
although tha Democrats will probably
protest vigorously against such expe
dition. At any rate, the hoime leaders
hope to enter upon the consideration
of the bill In the house before the end
of the week. Some of them have fixed
Thursday as the day on which the de
bate would probably commence. Al
though the limits of the debate have
not yet been decided upon, the prevail
ing opinion Is that It will not last over
ten days. Night sessions will, of course,
be held throughout the period allowed
for debate. Unless some unexpected
hitch occurs the new tariff bill may be
sent to the senate a wefk from next
(Saturday, or a fortnight after the ses
sion opens.

days ago, lives In one room In an old
house Just beyond the city limits. Mrs
Bergunder said, In telling her story:
"Lately we became so poor that my
children and myself were frequently
forced to go without food for two days
at a time, so that my huBband might
eat. Towards the last he continually
begged for food. On the day he died
he whispered a piteous appeal to me
for something to eat. His last words
almost were requests for food."

of Chamborlain's Cough Eomcdy, both the

London, March 1B.-The Dally Chron
icle announces that a formal ultima
tum has been delivered to Greece de
claring that a blockade of Cree and
of certain Greek ports, not yet named,
Will iMtgln on Wednesday. Some of the
powers have decided that unless
Greco yields or If she declares war on
Turkey measures still more severe will
be employed to the point of utterly
destroying Oreeo as a nation.
The Chronicle's Athens oorrMpon

he had with Commodore Ttelnerk, who
quotes from numerous documents to
disprove the charge of perfidy broughl
against him. Commodore Relneck de
nies that he withheld any warning 01
message tf the powers from the In
surgents, and declares that the allega
tions to that effect have been made In
order to shield the admirals from the
ridicule with which they have covered
themselves.
GrrcCtt'rt Kngllsh Sympathisers.
London, March IB. Between 30,000
and 40,000 people crowded the ap
proaches to Trafalgar Square yester
day afternoon to express sympathy
with Greece and Crete and, according
to the posters announcing the meeting,
to "assist diplomatists to make up their
minds." The Greek colors were worn
by a majority of those present, and
many Greek Hags were displayed. The
resolutions were similar to those at
Hyde Park meeting. The meeting ap
pointed Its chairman and the various
speakers as a deputation to present
the resolutions to Lord Salisbury. The
adoption of the resolutions was greeted
with loud cheering, mingled with hoot
Ings for Lord Salisbury, who, the pro
grain of the meeting declared, was still
determined upon war, In spite of the
wish of the people of Great llrltaln.

To War Against "Itfnir Plutocracy."
Chicago, March 15. Unemployed men
and women to the number of several
hundred held a meeting last evening
at which they launched a "declaration
of Independence" against "king plu
tocracy" in Chicago, and adopted reso
lutions against paying rent, except at
the option of the tenant; Indorsed the
repeal of laws for the collection of debt,
and formed the Unemployed Work
men's league. Speeches wore made on
the subject of finding work for the un
employed, and the potato and bean
patch plans of the Salvation army and
others were disapproved. The call for
the meeting stated that there are, per
haps, 100,000 unemployed men and wo

FREE CURE FOR MEN.
A Michigan Kan Offers to Send His Dis
covery Free.
Claims to Be a Benefactor to Weakened
Mankind.
Tiiero is always moro or less suspicion
attached to anything that is offered free but
sometimes a man so ovoruows witb generosity
that he cannot rest until his discovery is
known to the world, in order that bis fellow
men may profit by what ho has discovered.
It is upon this principal that a resident of
Kalamazoo, Mich., desires to send freo to
mankind a prescription which will cure them
of any form of nervous debility ; relloves
mem ot an tue uouut and uncertainty wnicu
such men are peculiarly llablo to and restores
the organs to natural slzo and vigor. As it
costs nothing to try tho experiment it would
seem thit any man, suffering with tho
nervous irouuios mat usually altacK men
who never stopped to realize what might bo
the final result, ought to bo deeply interested
in a remedy which will restore them to
health, strength aud vigor, without which
they continue to live an existence of untold
misery. As tho remedy iu question was tho
result of many years research as to what
combination would be peculiarly effective in
restoring to men the strength tlioy need, it
would seem that all men suffering with any
form of nervous weakness ouclit to write for
such a remedy nt once. A request to II. C.
Olds, Box 1712, Kalamazoo, Mich., stating
that you are not sending for tho prescription
out of idle curiosity, hut that you wish to
mako use of tno medicine by giving It a trial,
will be answerod nromntlv and without
evidence as to whoro information camo from.
I he prescription is sent froo and although
same may wonder how Mr. Olds can afford to
give away his discovery, thero is no doubt
about tho offer being genuine. Cut this out
and send to Mr. Olds so that he may know
now you cumo to wiito turn. iimus-tbc
