BEACH LAKE.
Beach Lake, March 17.
I have not got the smallpox nor
been exposed to It and have been vac
cinated so that I dared to send The
Citizen a few items without endan
gering any one. I want to say that
there has been no deaths and 1 hear
of no one sick with that disease in
our midst. It is generally under
stood that Mr. and Mrs. 'H. D. Wood
have had the smallpox and Mr. Wood
has been very sick but am glad to be
able to say they are improving. If
any ono else has had it it has been
so very light that it is hard to believe
they have been sick with that terrible
disease. Our town is, generally
speaking, in a good healthy condi
tion. Mrs. Henry Bradney is sick with
neuralgia of the stomach which is
the extent of the sick list.
The roads are in a bad condition.
It is thought by the old people they
aro worse than they over knew them
to bo before.
Most of our farmers have cot to go
to Honesdale today to sign the milk
contract. ,
'Mr, Cannon calls the attention, of
tho public to the fact that all "per
formances of Republican Houses
pale when placed in contrast with
what tho Democratic House of tho
Sixty-second Congress' has accom
plished in emptying the Treasury
and piling up obligations against rev
enues to be derived by direct taxation
and from revenue of free trade tariff
laws to which tho new Administra
tion stands and committed and
solemnly pledged."
Mr. Cannon scents a Treasury defi
cit ahead, basing his view upon the
promise of revenue reduction,
oupled with the extravagance which
he charges as a new Democratic falling.
St Louis. A storm which spread
over the entire Middle West, the
Rocky Mountain region, the South nnd
'the Southwest caused loss of life and
great property damage.
Late reports indicate that nearly a
hundred persons were killed, scores
.seriously injured, and millions of dol
lars' worth of property destroyed, in
tho terrific electrical tornado which
swept Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama,
Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas and
Texas.
Ninety deaths have been reported,
and the total loss of life probably will
be increased when communication is
restored in remoto sections devas
tated by tho cyclone. The damage to
property cannot be estimated, but will
have to be computed in millions.
Twenty-nine persons are reported to
have perished in Georgia and the prop
erty loss in that State is roughly es
timated at 91,000,000. Calhoun, Gordon
county, Ga., and its vicinity bore the
brunt of the storm in that State, and
eleven persons are reported to have
been killed there. The other fatalities
In Georgia were nine at Tucker, four
at Eaglesville, three at Clarkson, and
' two at Columbus.
Every message from the towns and
cities of the storm-ridden zone brought
its quota of disaster. Men, women and
children were overwhelmed in their
homes. In thq streets or in the fields
where they had taken shelter. Cloud'
bursts drove plunging torrents through
the hurricane belt. A wind of terrific
velocity uprooted trees, blew down
telegraph and telephone poles, turn
bled big and llttlo buildings, and even
blew railroad cars from the tracks,
Tho latest reports from Tennessee
have increased the death toll in that
Btate to twenty-six persons. Six per
ished in Middloton, four at South Ber
lin, three at Huron, two each at Cul
leoka and Lexington, and one each at
Leosburg, Rally Hill and Bryant Sta
tion. The loss of life in Alabama Is
estimated at thirteen. Five negroes
were killed near New Decatur, three
persons perished at Calera, and two
each at Hoyles Bluff, Gayesville and
Duko.
A conservative estimate places the
number of dead In the lower Middle
West, Southwest and South at 50, with
not fewer than 200 Injured and a prop
erty loss of $3,000,000 or more.
Four persons were killed and 12 in
jured as the result of a blizzard in
Nobraska, which caused two wrecks.
A St. Paul engineer saved a train
load of passengers in Minnesota. He
feared a washout, and ran slowly as
he approached a bridge. His engine
plunged through tho bridge. His fire
man was killed and he was fatally
hurt.
At Gothamburg, Nobraska, a passen
ger train crashed into the rear of a j
iPullman sleeper, throwing it and the
coach ahead into the ditch. Four per
sons were killed and 10 others are
seriously Injured. Three wero fatally
hurt.
After two days of the hardest gales
ever known in the Ozark Mountain
district, the apple belt of Missouri, the
temperature fell to 22 above zero, and
tho wind died down. Tho freeze Is
not believed to have done much dam
age to fruit.
One person was killed at Jackson
ville, 111. In Peoria, Woodford, Taze
well, Morgan, Cass, Menard, Jersey
and Greene counties, in Illinois, the
wind created great havoc. A church
steeple at Spring Hill, 111., blown over
while meeting was in progress, caused
a panic.
Hundreds wore rendored homeless
in the eastern part of Wisconsin and
hundreds of lives were endangered.
The damage Is estimated at JB00.000.
At Fond du Lac the business nnd
residence BectionB experienced the
worst flood in ten years, tho causes
being ice Jams. The water works
plant is flooded and newspaper press
rooms are out of commission.

self, saying she had come to see if
she and her husband could stay all
night. Mr. and Mrs. Ridd being kind
hearted were not disposed to send
them on at so late an hour at night,
so the horse was stabled and they
were made comfortable for tho night.
The next morning they went on their
way, saying they wero going to De
posit. They were of the tramp class
and Mr. and Mrs. Ridd do not care
to repeat their experience.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by local appneauuns, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There Is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitu
tional remedies. Deafness is caus
ed by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube Is Inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or im
perfect hearing, and when It is en
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by Catarrh, which
Is nothing but an inflamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of Deafness (caus
ed by catarrh) that cannot be cured
by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for
circulars, free.

Illinois Ex-Member Denounces Ap
proprintions Mndo by tho Sixty
Second Congress.
WnshlnEton. March 15. The an
nual defence of tho work of the ma
inritv nf the House of Representa
tives by the ciiairman oi ino uomuui.
tee on Appropriations, coupled with
the annual attack of the senior mln-
nrltv member of that commiuee
charging gross extravagance against
tho party in power, was made public
to-day. Tne two siaiemema lanu iuo
form of "Leave to print" speeches,
thn lnnner one from Representative
Joseph G. Cannon of Illinois for tho
opposition and the shorter and terser
ono from unairman jonn j. rineoi-
ald of New York for tho derence.
Mr. 'Fitzgerald points witn price
to tho fact that "It is a matter of
considerable satisfaction that the
total appropriations, including mo
two bills which did not become laws,
attained only the sum of ?i,uy,-
647, a60 and did not reacu or pass we
sum of .$1,100,000,000."
Representative cannon views wuu
alarm the fact that the Democratic
appropriation bill has been so stuffed
in overy direction, including a $40,-
000,000 public building Din, as to
surpass by more than $76,000,000
any previous annual aggregate in the
history of American legislation; this
too in the race or an economy jneuBu
in the Democratic platform.
Mr. Fitzgerald says: " The increase
In the total appropriation Is duo to
mnnv pnuKna. The continued growth
and development oi tne country uuu
the increased activity or many ser
viron nf tho Fdderal Government and
the constant pressure to divert to the
Ffirtoral Treasury burdens which
properly belong elsewhere are rac
tors which tend more or less legiti
mately to Increase the cost of the
Federal Government.
Even the figures given by Mr. Fitz
gerald, however,, show that the ap
propriations for the fiscal year 1913
14 exceed by more than $70,000,000
the extreme limit of expenditure
reached by any Administration lie

fiscal year 1910 appropriated a shade
SHORT TALK OX TEMPERANCE.
How Our W. C. T. U. Topic For De
cember, 1012, was Used by One
Union.
Our topic for December is "Need'
of Temperance Work at Holiday
Time."
Holiday time is a time when the
home coming of the absent members
of families makes it a time of fes
tivities. Many, when preparing food
for a festive meal, deem it necessary
to use brandy or wine in their con
coctlon which when eaten to any
extent creates an appetite for strong
drink hard to conquer or renews tho
appetite in a reformed drinker.
An Ohio woman who was plan
ning to serve wine with other deli
cacies at a reception, was asked by
a friend, "Do you think it is right to
serve fermented wine to your
guests?" "Certainly," she replied!
they serve it in our church, and -u
it Is right in the church, it Is right ik
the home." Here we have in" a- nut
shell the educational influence of'a
church that uses alcoholic wine at
the Lord's table.
Tho young man may also say con
sistently, "If it is right to take fer
mented wine at my church altar, it
Is right for me to take It elsewhere.
It is useless to reply "It is consecrat
ed wine." No prayer or blessing
over a dangerous and unholy thing
can make It pure or-sare; no religi
ous ceremony can sanctify what' Gbd
Himself has pronounced unholy and
unclean. Wo read Ills law given- to
Aaron, the priest, in Lev. 10, 9 and
10th verses "Do not drink wine
nor strong drink, thou nor thy sons
with thee, when ye go Into the taber
nacle of the congregation lest ye die.
It shall be a statue forever through
out your generation that ye muy put
difference between holy and' unholy
and between clean and uncluan."
iFor years the W. C. T. U. has
been endeavoring Its utmost, through
its department of Unfermented Wine
at the Sacrament, to banish the foe
of tho human race from every church
In Christendom. It has succeeded,
in great part, but the German LAith-
eran, Episcopal, Catholic- and a few
others still resist our appeals and
continue Its use. We believe that the
apostle Paul, were he on earth in
1912, would say to them, "If wine
make my brother to offend, I will
drink no more wine while the world
standeth."
Christ did not in any gospel com
mand his diciples to use wine at the
Lord's Supper, but always "the fruit
of the vine" which Is unchanged, un
fermented grape juice, a health-glv-'
lng temperance drink, neither unholy
:nor unclean.
At ono of our local moetlngs re
cently a young lady when asked to
sign the pledge and Join our union
replied, that she "did not want to
sign tho pledge because when wine
was served nt social gatherings where
she was, she hated to refuse, and If
bound by a pledge, would not reel
right to partake of it. 1 was glad
she honored the pledge ana wisnea
for ability to tell her my views of the
danger in indulging in wine ana
breathed a prayer for her safety.
'Following an old time custom
many think it necessary ro pieage
their friendship in wine, hence the
need of temperance work at holiday
time.
No wine I'll take
For friendship's sake,
Away with such a plea,
No friend of mine
Would give me wine
To wreck nnd ruin mo.
