Gentry, the con victed murderer of Actress Undue York, have forwarded to tlio hoard of Pat dons ut llarrisburg the alleged leasons why Gentry should be either pardoned or have his death seuteace commuted to imprisonment for life. The reasons in support of the claim for clemency aro "because tbo verdict wat ajiaiust the law and tbo evidenco; because ol thu inability of tbo defendant to procure important witnesses frum a foreign jurisdic tion, and because of after-discovered testi mony relative to the condition of Gentry' mind at the time of the commission of the otl'ense." I-'kom the nature of tlio evidence submitted to the Legislative committee appointed to investigate the n ported destitution among tbe coal miners of the bituminous regiou, it is evident that at least this particular investi gation was needed and should be productive of much good to those employed in the mine in tlio vicinity of Pittsburg. At the last hearing a doien miners weraexamiued. They testified that unless theypurcbased goods from tbe company utoret tbey would be given the hanlost work in tbe mines orclso dis charged. The average pay of a miner in the Pittsburg district was found to bo about one dollar per day. Tbo committee will meet again Monday to examine coal operators. Tiik Philadelphia Press is authority for the statement, through its Washington corres pondent, that at a confticiice between Sena tors Quay and Penrose and a number of tiiei. Pennsylvania lieutenants', a scheme was ad vaneed for tbe adoption of a rnlo giving the two United Stales senators full control in tho appointment of all presidential post masters. It has bten the custom in the past for members of Congress to have absolute control of the appointment of nil postmaster in their respective districts, and it goes without saying that many of the Con gressmen will oppose this scheme of clipping them of their prerogative. It is hinted, how ever, that the majority have willingly con sented iu order to avoid the great responsi bility and thankless tk of filling these posi tions. Tiik County Controller of Lusurne couutyf by u recent decision, will deprive the Count Treasurer of about f 1,500 a year, which hi predecessors have obtained from the lliiuoi licenses.

This was iu additiou to their salary. Con troller Lloyd contends that tbo Treasurer is not eutitled to this extra compensator, as there was no law Justifying uioi lo collect it. lie thought as the county was pot to con siderable extra trouble iu collecting the total amount, aud was responsible for its safe keep ing until paid out, and tbeu paying it out later to tlie cities, boroughs aud townships, that the county should receive I lie above couipeuaitioii tu defray the extra expense and labor, and has beeu pursuing this policy lately. THE SCHEME FAILS AT LAST.

Especially are they liable to bo at tacked and completely disabled by that most annoying and painful ailment Rheumatism. Men in all walks of life are subject at any time to be seized with this disease, and besides the great bodily pain, there Is almost unbearable mental anguish at the thought of hav ing' one's strength and vigor gradually supplanted by a condition of utter & ,LL rSi Rheumatism, the strongest men be come the weakest) and the most useful are robbed of their usefulness. Mr. J. A. LeScttr has lived In At lanta, Ga., for years, and some of the prettiest residences and most substan tial business blocks of that city are monuments to Ills skill as an architect and builder. Mr. J. A. L-kSbur. But like many other busy men, Mr. LeScur was overtaken by Rheumatism and soon his strength gave way to a condition of helplessness. This 'dread disease produces more agony, he says, than can well be described. "For years I have suffered with Sciatic Rheumatism and often felt as If a small piece of my spine had been taken out, also as if a fragment of bombshell had passed through my left hip. When I would sit down, I could not straighten up for several minutes, and then only at the expense of great pain. I could get absolutely no relief, though many remedies were tried. Someone recommended S. S. S. and I was almost in despair when I began its use. In three days, however, I vas so greatly relieved that I felt very little inconvenience from the rheuma tism. The disease grew less painful as I continued the S. H. fa., and very soon disappeared entirely. S. S. S. also proved to be a fine tonic, as I now have more appetite, and feel better than ever before, In my life. I cannot say too much in praise of S. S. S." Rheumatism is a condition of the blood which has always baffled the doctors, and it is a peculiarity that those who once have it are sure to al ways be subject to its attacks from time to time. The reason of this Is that the doctors are only able to give temporary relief, but cannot rid the system of the disease permanently. S. S. S. totiarnntecd purely vegclahle) is the only real blood remedy for real blood troubles, such as Rheumatism, Scrofula, Cancer, Eczema, Catarrh, Tetter, Contagious Blood Poison, etc. When S. S. S. once forces a disease from the system it never returns. Our valuable books will be mailed free to any address. Swift Specific Co., At lanta, Georgia. CoUibrntimr .leflVrsoii'H lllrtliday.

The election of councllmen and members' of the county board of free holders resulted In slight Democratic gains.
