No general of eltlier undent or modern times ever equaled Agtiin aldo's record for abtindoningcapUals. On September 9 next, people will date their letters not all people, but a largo number 9-0-99. How long 'will it be before a similar collocation of numbers occurs, and how often will it occur in the 20th century? Perhaps 1-1-01 might be accepted, and 2 2 28, meaniug Candlemas day, 1932, would certainly be so. It will be a long time however before we reach the darkey's favorite figures of 4-1144. Hear Admiral, Watson has sailed for Manila to succeed to the command as soon as Dewey is Teady to come home, the administration hoping he will come to receive the welcome of the people. It will be a great wel come, and already dinners are pro jected and oli-ue-joyfuls of every kind. The Admiral has given a quali fied promise to attend the National Encampment of the Grand Army, to be held in the fall in Philadelphia. This will give Schuylkill people a convenient opportunity to see and give him the glad hand. It is announced in political quart ers that Mrs. John Roynolds has been decided upon as the successor to her late husband, as postmaster at Mahn noy Plane. There was quite a con test for this office, William Middleton, one of the most prominent and in fluential Republicans of that place being a candidate and having the support of the party workers. Sen ator Penrose, since the retirement of Mr. Brunim, has the selection of postmasters in this county, and he makes his selections upon the recom mendation of the party leaders. It appears, from what is considered re liable authority, that Hon, Elins Davis, in company with Major Finney and John J, Coyle, called upon the Senator and secured the appointment of Mrs. Reynolds. And now the un successful candidates are kicking'. - Those Christian Scientists. Not much is to be expected, says the New York Times, from tho efforts now making' to bring to richly de- served punishment the "Christian Scientists" who recently allowed a woman to perish miserably there from a disease which medical science, if it cannot always cure, can certainly alleviate. As the law stands, or, rather, as the law is interpreted nnd applied by Judges and jurymen, the phrases "religious liberty" and "free dom of opinion" almost invariably form an adequate defense, in cases like this one a defense, not of liberty or religion, but of ignorance and fanaticism in all their gradations and combinations. In the present instance the relatives of the dead woman will say with a sort of truth that they "meunt well," and as weakness of mind is a misfor tune rather than a crime, or even a misdemeanor, they are practically sn re to escape all legal penalties for their homicidal neglect. The position of the active instrument of squalid delusion is somewhat different and not quite so safe. No reasonable being can question the fact that the "healer" was en gaged in unlawful practice as a phy- alcian. She will deny the adminlstra tion of any medicine, however, and as the impression that such ndminis tration is the whole, or at least the only important part, of a doctor's work still lingers in the majority of minds, she too, will in all probability receive what the Eddyites sulfa "vln dlcation." Still it is eminently wise to begin oourt proceedings against everybody involved in the miserable and humiliating episode. "The "healer's" utter failure in a comparatively easy cage and with all the circumstances exactly, as sue would desire, will be widely adver tised and dlsoussed. This will educate that portion of the public among whom the "Christian Scientists" find their most facile and profitable dupes.
