Both tho gold and silvor ehouters, after mature deliberation, are partly convinced that "Boss" Guffey gavo them each a gold brick.

"Wren a capitalization of $4,000,000 and gome of the most enterprising business men in New England back of it, the Great Northern Paper Com pany will have two of the largest paper mills in the world turning out daily 350 tons of paper by the 1st of July.

PROFESSOR Fesskndkn, of the "Western TJniversityof Pennsylvania, an eleotrical expert, has perfected a telescope and eyeglass of colored glass which -will reveal the white flash made by the firing of smokeless powder. The flash is invisible at day to the nuked eye, nnd for this reason many lives were uselessly lost in the Spanish war locating the Spaniards, who used smokeless powder. The government may buy the invention. Senator Penrose has the dis tribution of all the census super visors, about two thousand enumera tors, or local census takers, in this state, and fifty clerkships in the Washington bureau. This is more patronage than any one man bas ever had at hlB disposal in Pennsylvania, br any other state, for that matter. The Republican members of the House from this state are each al lowed six olerks in "Washington, and the Democratic members will' '.have to be satisfied with two minor clerkships. That women have no sense of humor has been repeated until it has become an accepted fact, which even women themselves take without a grain of salt. An English writer, ' however, has entered the lists on be half of tho sex, and proclaims all kinds of amiable things, as if he had just discovered them. He says, for instance, that the feminine sense of humor is much more subtle and ex tensive than the masculine quality, and that compared to George Eliot's manifestations tho humor of Dickens is but farcical exaggeration and bur lesque. The report tht times are better than they wero and that this town Is enjoying the greatest prosperity in Its history Is true to some extent. -Tamanua Recorder. The above is taken from the "only Democratic paper in the county," and recognized as ono of ,the few calam ity howlers. Tho editor, however, re- fuses to give the Republican adminis tration proper credit for tho "Im proved condition of the masses ;" but one year ago, when depression in business was noted, this inconsistent silvor advocate charged the McKInley administration with all the evils known to man. If the Republican party was responsible for the poor times, it should be given credit for the acknowledged improvement in bus! ness circles now.

Mr. Louts Frodorio Austin, in pro posing Mark Twain's health, said; "What most appeals to mon and wo men in his own calling and what will ever cause his name to be associated with Sir Walter Scott's In similar cir cumstances, is his noble courage In misfortune and tho undaunted toll that now enables him again to lift tho colors of victory."
