Sc ill ylkill county hits several superannuated politicians wlio im agine they still have a following. St iictlkill county will bo repre sonteil at the Bryan one-dollar dinner, in the person of William Wilhelm, the personal representative of the sliver oracle in this county. TlIK '"insurgents" at Harrisburg, if v?e are to believe their press agents, have had Senator Quay defeated daily, but the "old man's" faithful supporters in the lpjrlslature continue to line up in solid phalanx. The "antis" are throwing high balls at a ridiculous rate. Thk county seat, we are told, is to have another Republican daily paper, making throe in all. There are so many factions in the party in that town that they all feel like having a personal organ. If a man wants to be permanently eliminated from poli tics as a personal factor the best thing he can do is to buy a newspaper. Then he can blow his own horn. It is said speakeasies continue to flourish in West Mahanoy township, while the men who obey the law uud contribute to the support of the township are deprived of all rights. Something is radically wrong when the Girard Estate Trustees refuse to allow a licensed dealer to sell on their properties, and yet close their eyes to the nefarious practice carried on by the innumerable speakeasies in that township. District Attorney John R. Jones, of Lackawanna county, has prepared a bill, which Hon. P. E. Timlin will introduce in the legislature this ses sion. It provides for the payment of costs by the county in criminal cases where bail has been forfeited. As the law now stands there is no provision for costs tvhen a defendant absconds, unless the bondsman is proceeded against It happens every term of criminal court that several witnesses who testified before the alderman and grand jury in the preceding stages of the case cannot get a cent for all their trouble because the defendant does not appear for trial when the case is called. A decision that will have a wide spread effect has just been handed down bv the McKean county court, and there will be much uneasiness until there is a final decision by the higher court Some of the boroughs have taken advantage of the act of April 10, 1875, which enables boroughs throughout the state to levy a special light and water tax, the purpose of the levy being the erectio.n of electric light works, etc. It will be interest ing to the people of these boroughs to know that the opinion of Judge Mor- rison, of McKean county, decides that the act of 1875, under which said taxe were collected, is unconstitu tional. This will no doubt cause much uneasiness among the bonds men and holders of judgment against the boroughs that have udopted the act. This act, however, does not apply to Shenandoah, as the special water tax in this town is made under the Act of 1851. Plant a Tree. Superintendent Brooks, of the public sohools, has selected April 7, the first of the two Arbor Days named by Governor Stone, for the planting of trees by the schogl children. Although the opportunities for planting trees are not so great for children in Shenandoah us they are for those in the country distriots, at least one tree can be planted in every school yard and the occasion can be made one for instructing the children in the importance of preserving the forests and of fostering the growth of trees whenever possible. And not only may trees te planted, but vines, shrubs and plants of all kinds ; for by these means the chil dren will be brought close to nature and be better able to understand the ''various languages" which she speaks. No opportunity ought to be lost by the teachers in the sohools to lead the children into these nature studies, and particularly should some special form of observance be adopted for the Arbor Day which Superintendent Brooks has named.

This Is the day Mr. Olnte Is alleged to have refuse 1 an offer of $1,000 to move to reconsider the bill. Mr. Itolm. of Allegheny, said that the day the oriclnal iiivitlgntlng committee was appointed lie was asked by Itcprc sentntlve Smith, of Cameron, to request Mr. Voorliees, of Philadelphia, n mem ber of the committee, not to ask him too many questions, but to let him tell what he wanted. Mr. Smith said if th committee did not allow lilm to tell lilt story In his own way he might Involve some cood friend of Robb and himself. Representative' Joseph W. Smith, of Clinton, was asked If a paper had been submitted to him pledging him to vote for a Republican for United States sen ntor. Mr. Smith explained that before his election Herbert flleason, of North Bend, asked him to sign a paper prom ising to support the Republican caucus nominee for senator If n Deniocrnt could not be elected. The witness refused to sign the paper and destroyed it. Mr. Youngston, of Westmoreland, tea tificd thnt Editor Uerry, of the Latrob.' Clipper, and a man named Ooyle, of Ligonier. called at his boarding house one night nfter 12 o'clock, and said to the witness that he wns a poor man. with a wife and children, and that it "would be worth his while" to go to the Commonwealth hotel. Mr. 'ioutig son told the visitors thnt If they did not leave ho would summon the police. Ties witness said no direct offer was mnde to him by his visitors, and thought that they were in Harrisburg in the interest of the candidacy of Colonel Oeorge 1". Huff, of Oreensburg, for United States senator. Representative Norton testified that on the morning of Feb. 8 Robert Evnns, of Philadelphia, asked him to vote for the MoCitrrell bill, said there was $1,00(1 In it if he would do so, and offered to go with him Immediately and get the money. Norton refused the alleged of fer and left Evnns with the explanation that he would not support the bill under any conditions. Evans afterward went to Norton and asked him to say nothing about the alleged offer. Representative Engler, of Lycoming, told Norton that Michael J. Costello, of Philadelphia, called at his home nnd offered him $500 to support the McCarrcll bill. Mr. Skinner, of Fulton, said Repre sentative Dumbauld, of Fayette, told him that he overheard Mr. Van Aralken berg tell the representative of a Pitts burg newspaper, after a certnin senator had voted for the McCarrell bill, "to give him the devil."

Mo about -l o'clock yesterday afternoon and immedi ately sank with all on board except Can- tain George Cnrvell and one of the crew. The steamer left Cairo with 10 passen gers nboard bound for Memphis. At Caruthersvllie, Mo., she lauded and took aboard 15 more passengers. She made the next landing at Tyler, Mo., and nt 4 o'clock yesterday after noon backed into midstream from Tyler to proceed on her journey. Tho steamer had just reached the middle of the river when she suddenly stopped nnd lurched as if she hnd struck a sung. The next moment the boat parted in the middle, a volume of steam nnd debris nrose and the detonation of nn explosion thundered over the water. The steamer was manned by the fol lowing crew: Captain, George Carvel"; first clerk, L. K. Booker: second clerk, Gus Mitchell; third clerk. Sam Lewis; pilots, Sid Smith and L.

It comes on so slowly yet surely that it is often firmly seated before we are aware of it. The name of this disease which may be divided into three distinct stages is, First, Kidney trouble, indicated by pain in the back, rheumatism, lumbago, frequent desire to urinate often with a burning sensation, tbe flow of urine being copious or scant with stroug odor. If allowed to advance, this reaches the Second st tge, or Bladder trouble, with heavy pain in tbe abdomen low down between the navel and the water passage, increasing de sire to urinate, with scalding sensation in pasiing, small quantities being passed with difficulty, sometimes necessary to draw it with instruments. If uric acid or gravel has formed, it will prove dangerous if neglected. The Third staee is Uright's Disease. There is comfort in knowing that Dr, Kilmer, the great kidney and bladder specialist, has discovered a Remedy famous for its marvelous cures of the most distressing cases and known as Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root. Jt is sold by all druggists.
