The Republican Congressional Con
ference of tho twenty-first district, com
posed of Indiana, Westmorland, Arm
strong, and Jefferson counties, met at
Saltsburgh yesterday to nominate a
Congressman for tho district. Tho can
didates are Capt.Nesbit, of Indiana Co.,
Hon. O. F. Huff. Westmorland Co.;
Daniel Heiner. of Armstrong Co.: W.C.
Bond, Jefferson Co. As we go to press
we nre unable to give the results of the
conference. There is no doubt but what
there will be an interesting time among
the conferees.
"If you cannot always lo contented
you can at least lx cheerful." The lxst
way to put off trouble, cure and dis
couragement is to put on a smiling face
and greet everyone pleasantly, then seek
the companionship of those who aro
congenial. Have you ever thought how
far a smile will go towards straighten
ing the crooked pathways of life? Like
rippling waters it will wear smooth the
rough places, even as "a soft answer
turnoth away wrath." It is a blessed
contagion and it means added happiness
and more joy in living.
Time is a great answerer of questions.
The question of the spring-tide seed
sowing is answered in the harvest of
autumn; and many a question of this
life will be answered only In the life to
come. Why trouble yourself over the
questions which cannot be answered
now? Already thoy are in process of
being answered, but the answer is not
yet complete. Wait until the harvest
bows beneath its weight of fruit and
grain, and you will soe the completed
answer written before your eyes in
russet and purple and gold.
Bitumlnious coal smoke is not an
unmitigated evil, as it has sometimes
been declared. The death rate of Lon
don, the largest city in the world, has
always been unaccountably low. The
scientific men of Great Britain reached
the conclusion that this is owing to the
destruction of the disease germs by the
hundreds of tons of sulphur dally
thrown into the air by the combustion
of the thousands of tons of coal con
sumed in thatcity. The sulphur causes
the fog, and the fog aids in the germ
destruction. This theory finds very
general accceptance. Lock Haven Ex-prtus.
"I believe in getting the most out of
life possible," is not an unfroquent
remark in this nineteenth century.
Usually this la said in a purely selfish
sense. The one who gets the most out
of life is the one who puts the most in.
The proportion of unselfish devotion to
right living and to the happiness of
others which wo put Into life measures
our share In return. "With what
measure ye meet it shall be measured
unto you again." Those who expect
something for nothing are every day
being disapiiointod. If we make our
lives useful, helpful and noble, we will
receive sympathy i love, and trust.
What earthly possessions .are nioro
precious than these.
The meanest trait In humau character
is a disposition to disparage your neigh
bor, to scandal thom and try to make
thein odious in the eyes of others. He
who maliciously Bets about to defame
another is by that very act doing some
thing that should render him more con
temptible in the eyes of his fellow than
anything ho can say of those whose char
acter he wishes to blacken. If you feel
a personal dislike to any one you should
novor speak of him, for you are sure to
spoak with venom on your tongue, and
iqstoad of injuring the party spoken of
vou simply defile yourself. None of us
are iierfout. We have all done things
o which we ought to be ashamed, and
there would be mighty few people hit
with stones if only tho sinless would
throw then Reputation is the most
sacred thing a man has. It is of more
value than life Itself, and the scandal
inonyer.who seeks to destroy it,deserves
hanging as richly as the murderer.

The Senatorial conference for the
Indluna-Jofforson district, mot at
Marlon Center last week, and as no
nomination was made tho conference
adjourned to moot at Brookvlllo on tho
SHitl Inst. Tho candidates are Capt. J.
O.Mitohell.of Jefferson county.and CM.
Watson, Esq., of Indiana county. Indi
ana is, and always has been, Inclined to
be selfish senntorially, and has never
conceded anything to Jefferson county
willfully. Mr. Watson Is snrely farslgh
ted enough to seo that this Is the time
for Indiana to act wisely and that the
nomination be given to C'Bpt. Mitchell.
There Is hardly any doubt but what
this will lie the outcomo of tho confer
ence nt Brook vll In Snturdny.
Hummer vacations are now in order,
Theiti niv various places to go for a few
days of recreation. The Clarion Assem
bly is now presenting a good program
daily to all who attend. Chautauqua,
where so many from this section go
every year. Is one of tho most delight
ful places to spend your days of rest
during the warm season that can lie
found Besides the other hundreds of
attractions are the steam boat rides
that you can Indulge in daily, except
Sunday. Tho Chautauqua Steam Boat
Co. have excellent steamers that run
from Jamestown to Mayvlllo and return,
a distance of forty miles. A season
ticket, for July and August can lie
bought for tho trilling sum of two dol
lars and fifty cents, good on all steamers.
Tho lxnits are furnished nicely, brass
bands frequently render music for tho
passengers, while a cool and Invigorat
ing breeze Is an ever present Incentive
to aid in bringing rest nnd pence.
Chautauqua must he visited to bo appreciated.
The following extract from a charge
to a jury recently by Judge White, may
bo of iniM)rtance to tho people of this
section: "Tho oflleo of a constable is
ancient. his duties important and powers
large: his general duties Is to keep tho
peace, and tor this purpose he may
arrest, Imprison, break open doors nnd
tho like: a constable may justify an
arrest for a reasonable cause or suspicion
alone; put tho prisoner in Jail and tho
jailor must receive him. The power and
authority of a policeman has been mado
kindred to that of a constable. A con
stable or a policeman cannot 1x3 arbi
trary and tyrannical; he cannot go into
a house just because ho is constable or
policeman; he cannot arrest a man on
tho street just because ho is such an
officer. There must appear to his mind
at the time public necessity for it. Not
withstanding tho theory that every
man's house Is his castle, if bedlam is
going on in there, or a disturbance is
going on in tho house and the pollw
man sees It, he has a right to go in, and
break the door and get in; but ho must
act with discretion."
There is a bug with a name as long as
a snake that abides among the black
berries, writes Robert J.Bunlotte in his
inimitable department In the July
L(?iVit' Home Journal. He does not eat
them. He just haunts the patches
whore city boarders are staying, and
makes it his business to rise early in the
morning and crawl over the largest and
finest and ripest berries. When you eat
a blackberry that has been glorified by
a visit from this bug, you just lio right
down in the briai-s and ask to die. You
do not want to live a minute longer.
Not with that taste In your mouth. If
I understand rightly what a bramble Is,
tho blackberry, in a state of nature, is
the brambliest thing that ever brain
bled. A human being, clothed am In
his right mind, who goes in at one side
of a wild blackberry patch and comes
out at the other is movod with wonder
at the comixmsatlons of nature. For
every one of a thousand scratches on his
perishing frame he has a ready-made
bandage hanging loosely from his rai
ment. How men can Ixiholi such
things and yet vote the other ticket Is
a mystery to everybody else. If you
will run your hand, or better your
sleeve, lightly down a blackberry cane,
from top to root, you will olsorve that
all the briars hook upward, to catch
everything that comes down. Then If
you will run up tho other way, you will
observe that all tho briars hook down
ward, in order to cateh everything m It
comos up.
An Unfortunate AHercation
1'unXHUtuwney News.
One day last week w)me differences
arose between Dr. Shields, of this place,
and Dr. John Grubo, of Clayvlllo. Hot
words ensued and it is said that Dr.
Shlolds took Dr. Grubo by the collar
and In turn Dr. Grubo struck Dr.
Shields and blackened his eye. Noth
ing more happened to show hot blood
until the next day at a ball game at
Clayvlllo when Joseph Shields, son of
tho doctor's, wont up behind Dr. Grube
and struck him on the head with a
boavy cane knocking him- down and
cutting his head severely. Dr. Grube
was pretty badly injured and was
taken home and medical aid called In.
Joseph Shields was taken in charge by
the Clay villa authorities and lined for
disturbing the peace, The doctor has
almost recovered from tho shock and It
Is thought that he will soon fully
recover, Jos. Shields is under ball and
it is probable that the facts in the case
will be fully brought out before a
jurist who will have to decide the case.

hapiK'iied at theelectric light plant that
extinguished every arc light in town.
The atmosphere was heavily charged
with electricity and it apM-ars some of
