F. Wright Is entitled by reason of
his appointment by Gov. Stuart.
The demurrer was submitted to
Attorney General Todd at his camp
In Maine before being Hied. It sets
forth that Secretary McAfee "by

plaint" demurs to tho whole of tho

thnn two monthB preceding the gen
eral election of 1910, It is averred.

Kiioy mid His Family at the Gap.
Delaware Water Gap resorts have
been entertaining very prominent
people this season. The Kittatinny
seems to have the larger share of
this class of business. The excellent
appointments of the house are feat
ures that prove attractive to guests.
Hon. P. C. Knox, secretary of "Unto,
and Congressman Dalzell were re
cent visitors there, and the secre
tary's wife, Mrs. P. C. Knox, end P.
C. Knox, Jr., and wife arrived at
the Kittatinny Sunday of last week
and remained until Monday after
noon, when they left for Massachu
setts to Join the secretary, who Is
the guest of President Taft at the
latter's summer home In Beverly.

with the Water Gap region. The
young man, It will be remembered,
was mnrrled while attending Yale
and It was feared It would cause a
family break, but there was a recon
ciliation between the father and
son, If It can really be said there
was a break, and now all are happy.

LAST WEEK IX SEPTEMBER.
Selected for This Year's Annual
Tri-County Fair.
The third annual fair of the Tri
County Fair association will be held
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday, Sept. 2G-29. A large pro
gram of events Is being arranged.
There will be racing the last three
days of the fair, pulling matches, a
ball game and numerous other di
versions In addition to the display
of stock, farming utensils, etc.,
which it is expected will be larger
this year than ever before.
Work is now in progress on the
premium book, which will probably
be ready for mailing about Sept. 1.
Liberal premiums will be offered
prize winners for all kinds of stock,
farm products, fancy work, cul
inary products, and farming Imple
ments. The directors are deter
mined not only to make the coming
fair the best In the history of the as
sociation, but to place It at once
on a par with any country fair in the
state.
People Aroused to Value of Game
Birds.
"The fact that there are more
game birds in Pennsylvania today
than there have been for many
years," said Secretary Kalbfus of
tho state gamo commission "Is not
due to the efforts of the game com
mission alone but to the awakened
Interest of the people of the com
monwealth In the birds. They are
now realizing that the birds are the
best friends of the farmers and that
to protect them benelits the state
at large.
"I will speak at the Delaware
Water Gap hotel upon tho birds of
this state. There Is no meeting
there of sportsmen or of any asso
ciation, but I have simply been ask
ed to address the people of the ho
tel. This Is an ldlcatlon of the
awakened Interest In the birds of tho
state. Frequently 1 am asked to
nddress gatherings of people who
have no Interest In birds but do not
belong to any association which has
for its object the care and protec
tion of our winged friends."
Hidden Streams.
Reference has been made frequent
ly within tho past few years to tho
progress of scientific investigation
concerning subterranean streams and
rivers. It Is a subject of constantly
growing Importance In connection
with tho Irrigation of desert, or par
tially desert, regions. The manner
In which streams which once tlowed
on tho surface of tho earth havo
burled themselves from sight In
placca whero calcareous rocks abound
Is well Illustrated by tho subterranean
waters of the valley of Jehoshaphat,
near Jerusalem. As Mons. P. Salllor
points out, tho exploration of tbeso
hidden streams In a region covered
with places sacred to three religions
Christian, Jewish and Mohamme
dan Is confronted by peculiar diffi
culties. But enough has been dis
covered to make H certain that be
neath this dry and barren-looking
district flows on abundance ot water,
and some of the fountains famous In
Scripture story owe their existence to
this subterranean source.
ANNIVKItSAKY OF WHECK.
John Klnslla and M. F. Frit. Only
Survivors of Accident.
On Aug. 13, 1S88, on tho Erie,
occurred tho great railroad wreck
at Shohola, when engineer John
Klnslla was pinned under his en
gine nnd disfigured for life. He
wns taken to Port Jervis on a
stretcher, and It did not seem possi
ble for him to recover, so bndly in
jured wns he. But he did, nnd for
a number of yenrs he continued to
pull the throttle over tho Delnwnro
division. Mr. Klnslla's llreman,
Alexander Newmnn, wns killed.
Of the Erie men from Port Jervis
who were in that horrible wreck of
22 years ago only Mr. Klnslla of
that city nnd Engineer M. F. Fritz
of Honesdnle, now on trains 28 and
143, survive.
A heavy fall of rain cnused some
rocks to slide on the track and de
rail two trains.
Monti ose Youths Try Strike Break
er's Life.
When charges of rioting against
two men were nol prossed In court
at New London, Conn., It became
known thnt these two participants
in the outbreak of strikebreakers,
brought there by tho Central Ver
mont recently, are members of prom
inent Pennsylvania families.
They arc Samuel M. Allen, a law
student nnd son of District Attorney
Allen of Montrose, and Edward
Almes, a clerk, whose uncle, W. E.
Burdlck, a prominent attorney, was
in court.
ABOUT TOMATO STALK BOItEKS,
.Alow AVeod Early In Summer
.Months and September, Says
Surface.
A justice of the peace In Juniata
forwarded to State Zoologist H. A.
Surface a tomato stalk which, he
said, had been attacked by a pesl
new In his section and one that
is causing much damage.
Professor Surface gave the fol
lowing information, which will be
found useful to all who are growing
tomatoes:
"The insect which you sent to us
in the stalk of tomato Is known as
the stalk borer. This bores through
the plant, and, as you say, soon de
stroys It. I have many reports of
this pest each year boring In the
stalks of tomatoes and various other
plants, as well as sometimes corn.
"As this borer lives mostly in the
stalks of large weeds, it Is very im
portant that the large weeds be
mowed during the early part of each
of the months of July, August and
September, so as to destroy these
borers before reaching maturity.
This, together with the pulling and
burning of infested plants, and the
burning of vines of tomatoes and
potatoes, as soon as the crop Is
gathered will do as much as anything
toward helping you to keep It in
subjection, and in preventing much
more serious damage from It anoth
er year.
'This is one of the destructive
pests of potatoes, having recently
Increased considerably in this state,
but if the stems of potatoes and to
matoes are sprayed well with either
Paris green or arsenate of lead, this
should kill the larvae before they
enter the stalks and just after they
hatch from the egg on exactly the
same principle as the Codling moth
is killed by the arsenical poisons on
the apple by hitting It when start
ing to eat Its way through the
fruit."
Pure air both Indoors and out
doors Is absolutely essential to
health and longevity. Never allow
yourself to remain In a poisoned
or vitiated atmosphere.

FOOD COMMISSIONER BUSY.
Hns Hnil ililli Cases Under Several
Acts Since Jan. 1.
Dairy and Food Commissioner
Foust stntes that since Jan. 1 there
have been 332 cases terminated un
der the severnf food nets, 188 under
the oleomargarine act, 21 for the
lllegnl sale of Ice cream, 3 for the
sale of milk containing formalde
hyde, 19 for the snle of milks nnd
cream otherwise ndulterated, 20 for
tho sale of rotten eggs and 81 other
cases under the general and other
speclnl food laws.
The total receipts of the olilce, In
cluding lines nnd oleomnrgarlne
licenses from Jan. 1 to Aug. 1, were
$90,853.32. The results of the
work for the yenr thus far hnvo
shown n very marked Improvement
In tho purity nnd In the labelling
of food products, especially is the
condition of the mnrket milk ns to
preservatives greatly Improved, so
that today the use of preservatives
Is extremely rare. Likewise the pop
drinks, which until recently were
largely sweetened with saccharin,
are now rarely found to contain
that coal tar preparation.
It Is notable, however, that In
Philadelphia particularly there has
been considerable sale of "rots ,&nd
spots" by dealers In eggs and rath
er frequent use of coal tar dyes to
color cakes. In Ice cream the chief
point of failure to conform with
the state law has been due to a
deficiency in butter-fat.
Human Life For August.
The remarkable story of Miles
Polndexter, the standard bearer of
insurgency from the far West, who
has become a national figure In his
first term in Congress, Is one of
the leading articles in Human Life
for August.
"Shall There be a Monopoly of
the Air?" Is a question that far
seeing men are beginning to ask,
realizing that it is likely before long
to overtop all others In world-wide
Interest and Importance. Hiram
Moe Greene handles this subject In
masterly fashion, and offers an
original and practical solution.
Roosevelt's battles in the political
arena at the outset of his career,
always as the fearless champion of
the common good, are of profound
Interest as told In Alfred Henry
Lewis's great serial, "The Story of
Roosevelt," in this issue.
The second in the series on great
American captains of industry ap
pears in this number, and the story
of Heinz, the "condiment King,"
is an Arabian Nights wonder tale of
a man who has reared an industry
of truly astounding proportions from
the humblest of beginnings.
The great free West recruits Its
reform leaders from all ranks, but
the story of Roady Kenehan, black
smith and state auditor of Colo
rado, is certainly one of the most
unique ever written.
The love of pictures is as old as
the race Itself, and there Is a wealth
of them in this issue. Crisp, scin
tillating editorials on people In the
limelight and numerous thumbnail
sketches of the great and near
great complete this excellent num
ber. Human Life Publishing company.
