blocked both trades for several
hours. Trains Six, Seven and 48

Deterioration of corn on a large
scale has occurred this month in the
great corn-producing states of the
Southwest Kansas, Nebraska, Mis
souri, and Oklahoma. .Last year
these States yielded 735,000,000
bushels, or nearly one-fourth of the
country's crop, under a normal pre
cipitation. Thus far into the season
rainfall has been reported as no
more than 72 per cent, or normal.
The huckleberry crop on the
Shawangunk mountains and also in

tents on the mountain near the Port
Jervis-Greenville state road and it
is said the berries are taken to Ellen
ville by automobile.

The Davis bill providing for vot
ing machines to be used at elections
in Pennsylvania was vetoed by Gov.
Tener. The bill was much debated
in tho recent session and It was' An
ally arranged that counties could
have machines at their option. The
governor says: "This bill is objec
tionable for the reason that If such
Innovation is to become part of the
election laws it should bo general
in its scope and not made optional
with tho various county commission
ers throughout tho state. Such a
provision, In my Judgment, would
utterly destroy tho uniformity of
voting which Is essential."
Supreme Court Justice Goff de
cided recently that there Is such an
offence as disorderly conduct, and
dismissed a writ of habeas corpus
sued out by Sidney Cohen, who had
been sentenced to the workhouse for
this transgression by a City Magis
trate. In his petition asking to be
released Cohen declared that the
Magistrate who sentenced him was
without Jurisdiction because there is
no such offence under tho statutes
now In force. The court decided
that the laws give ample authority
for committing persons charged with
disorderly conduct "because It is be
yond human Ingenuity in tho Eng
lish language to specify and par
ticularize all the acts of reckless or
vicious men In a populous city that
may tend to be a breach of the
peace." The court also held that
there Is no appeal from a commit
ment for disorderly conduct, because
in enacting the law the Legislature
has seen fit to withhold the right of
appeal.

over three months, Milton Johnson
died at his home in Justus Tuesday.

Tho death of John A. Relth,
Pottsville's heaviest man, Tuesday,
aged CI, involved unusual funeral

and the casket to hold his body was
so large that it was Impossible to
take the corpse Into St. John the
Baptist church, of which Relth was
a- member, neither was it possible to
take it out of either the doors or
windows of his home, so a part of
of the house was torn out for this
purpose. Because of his huge size
Relth has been unable to work for
the past 12 years.
The Pennsylvania legislature has

than two years. Applicants for this
pension must havo been a resident
of Pennsylvania at the time of en
listment and for a year prior to this
application. Persons must apply to
tho Attorney General and pensions
will be paid quarterly beginning next

ture of the Governor.
The bill giving Luzerne county
an additional law judge has been
signed by Governor Tener, who Im
mediately after signing It appointed
Hon. Benjamin R. Jones, judge to
serve till tho first Monday of next
January. The principal reason that
Luzerne got another judge is because
of frequent deadlocks among the four
judges that were. They have been
deadlocked for eighteen months or
moro on the appointment of a prison
board. Judgo Jones served part of a
year four years ago by appoint
ment of tho governor to All the va
cancy caused by tho death of Judge
Lynch.

HAY GOOD IX WAYNE COUNTY
A heavy crop of hay was cut on the
Hubbard farm this week.
On Judgo Searlo's farm, at Slko4
timothy stood five feet six inches tall.
Other sections in Wayne county
the hay crop is reported good.
In New York state the crop is far
below the average. Dispatches from
Broome and other New York state
counties state that the crop will be
low In quality and quantity over
most of tho eastern hay sections.
The western hay crop Is reported
to bo good.
The hay grown In the eastern sec
tion of Wayne county is better than
at first expected. It is thick and tall
grpwth. The moro money spent on
the meadows for fertilizer the larg
er the crop. Wayne county farmers
can no longer expect to reap large
and abundant crops without fertiliza
tion. The old meadows run out If
they are not renewed.
DIRECT ELECTIONS IS
SOURCE OF WORRY
Fcnr States Will Fn to Provide
Funds for Selecting Senators lle-
foro Election.
Complications are predicted as
certain to arise over the installation
of the direct election method for
the selection of United States Sena
tors. Most of the trouble is expect
ed to result from the failure of State
Legislatures to provide promptly, ap
propriate methods for carrying out
the recent amendment to the con
stitution for tho direct senatorial
election.
Leaders of the Senate majority
are more anxious about the situation
than the Republicans. Should' two
or more vacancies on the Democratic
side of the chamber occur the narrow
margin of power In the body would
be gone.
There are thirty-two senatorial
terms which will expire on March
1915. Some of the States affected
already have provided a method of
popular election of Senators, but a
great number of them have not, and
vacancies caused by death or resigna
tion may call at any time for a popu
lar election.
Democratic members of the Com
mittee" on Privileges and Elections
have considered the advisability of
having a national law prescribing a
method applying to all States alike.
To do this Congress would exercise
its power under the constitution to
revise State regulation as to the
time and manner of selecting Sena
tors, a step which never has ap
pealed to Southern Senators. No
sooner had the suggestion of Feder
al Legislation been made than they
entered a protest and the idea has
been abandoned. ,
The Legislature, 'of Georgia, re
cently enacted legislation in regard
to the placing of the names of Sena
tors on the ballots and has elected
the first Senator by this method.
The Florida Legislature decided it
already had sufficient laws for this
purpose. The Texas Legislature has
been called to meet in a special ses
sion to consider, among other things
the passing of laws for election ma
chinery in accordance with the
amendment.
The Governor of Maryland has de
cided he is empowered under exist
ing laws to Issue a writ of election
to fill the unexpired term of the late
Senator Rayner. Senator Jackson
is now serving by designation of the
Governor. Such constitutional law
yers of the Senate as Senator Root
and Sutherland are said to enter
tain doubt as to the power of the
Governor to Issue the writ, and the
appearance of a new Senator from
Maryland to take the oath of office
may mark the initial fight in the
Senate over the Senatorial election
machinery.
The situation is complicated by the
amendment further limiting the Gov
ernor's power to fill vacancies in the
Senate. In the past a Governor has
filled vacancies occurring when the
legislature was not in session.
Hereafter a Governor may not fill
a vacancy unless the legislature of
his State has empowered him to make
temporary appointments until the
people may fill the vacancies by elec
tion as the legislature may direct.
The Democratic Congressional
Committee has had the matter called
to its attention, and it may take
steps to urge the States to pass leg
islation as quickly as possible.
It will see to It that all the States
that elect Senators for the terms be
ginning in 1915 act before that
time. Should vacancies occur during
the pendency of the tariff act. In
States where suitable machinery Is
not now provided, It Is understood
the committee would at once urge
the convening of the State legisla
tures to authorize the Governors to
appoint and to provide for tho plac
ing of candidates for Senator on the
ballots in future elections.
PROVIDE MOTHER PENSIONS.
Allegheny County Commissioners Ap
propriate $13,000 Under New Law.
Tho commissioners of Allegheny
county, Pa., have appropriated 13,000
for tho payment of pensions to moth

by tbo last legislature must name n
board of trustees, by whoso direction
the money, together with . Allegheny
county's proportion of tho. $100,000 ap
propriated by tho state, will bo ex
pended. Only tho mothers of children depend
ent because of the death or desertion
of their fathers lire eligible to pensions.

"Might you know a feller by tho
name Cohen, Maybe?" Harris Fish
beln asked his partner, Jacob Blintz.
"A question!" Blintz replied, "I
know a million fellers by the namo
Cohen anyway six."
"I mean Cohen which is going as
partners together oiit Potash & Perl
mutter," Harris Fishbeln explained,
"a feller by the name Cohen which
used to was in the show business."
"Do you mean George M. Cohen,
which used to was in the show busi
ness corner of Forty-third street and
Broadway?" Blintz asked.
"That's tho feller," Fishbeln de
clared. "Couldn't them two boys find some
schlemiel In the cloak and suit trade
to go as partners together mit?"
Blintz commented.
"What- do you mean somo
schlemiel in the cloak and suit
trade?" Fishbeln retorted. "How
do you know this feller, George M.
Cohen, Is schlemiel?"
"Listen, Harris," Blintz began.
"Any feller which is got to go out
from the theayter business Into the
garment business because he could
not make out In the theayter business
at all, understand me, must got to
be a schlemiel."
"In what way must he got to bo a
schlemiel?" Fishbeln asked.
"Because, If a feller is in the
theayter business, Harris, where
none of his competitors open up
their places until anyhow 8 o'clock
in the evening, y'understand, and
he don't know enough to open at 7
o'clock, we would say, for example,
and in that way cop out a whole lot
of his competitors' trade, y'under
stand, then such a feller must got
to be a schlemiel. Ain't it?"
"Maybe you are right," Fishbeln
said, "but this here George M. Co
hen had misfortune also, Jake. He
is got working for him a couple of
years ago a feller by the name Wall
ingford, and such a loafer as that
feller was you wouldn't believe at
all. I bet you he ganvers pretty
nearm the whole business away from
Cohen."
"And do you think Cohen would
be any better off mit Potash & Perl
mutter?" Blintz asked. "You could
take it from 'me, Harris ( this here
George M. Cohen is going from fry
ing pan Into another, that's all."
At this juncture there entered
Max Gelb, salesman for the Ham
suckett Mills.
"Well, boys, did you hear about
Potash & Perlmutter?"
"Nu, what about "em?" said Ja
cob Blintz,. who belleved in letting
the other fellow tell all he knew
first.
"Why, A. H. Woods, the theatri
cal producer, has had a play writ
ten about them," Gelb said, "and
It's to open at the George M. Cohen
Theatre on August 1G."
"A play about them!" Blintz ex
claimed, glaring at his partner.
"That's what I said," Gelb con
tinued. "Alexander Carr Is going to
be In it and Barney Bernard, Louise
Dresser and Ellta Proctor Otis and
Lee Kohlmar and Joseph Kilgour
and a whole lot of other first class
actors. I'll send you boys up a
couple of tickets."
"Much obliged, Max," Barney re
plied, "but we couldn't buy another
yard of piece -goods not if you was
to send us up the whole theayter
Itself. We ain't got no more spaco
In our stockroom for a reel of thread .
even."
Half an hour later Blintz turned
to his partner with a satirical grin.
"Do you got any moro unconfirm
ed rumors up your sleeve, Harris?"
ho asked. "Might Sammet Brothers
Is going as partners together mit
GattI Charosus, maybe?"
