Theluw provides for tho election to ba held on the first Tues day after tho first Monday in November. This year November begin on Tuesday, henco the election will porno on tho eighth! Tho voters of Jefferson county will have tho privilege at tho February election to say whether there shall be a poor farm established in tho county or hot. Other counties have poor farms and, while tho poor are just as well, If not better, cured for, it lsquito a saving to the tax-payers of tho county. A New Jersey man accused of bigamy pleaded in extenuation that the second victim of his matrimonial proclivities lured him to tho altar with particularly succulent apple pto, after tasting which he was powerless to resist her. This la merely a variation of the old Adam dodge "Tho woman tempted me and I did eat." Coffee is to bo cheaper. This is to be one of tho results of tho war. Nearly one-half of the world's coffee crop comes to the United States. We consume, al most twelve pounds por annum for every one of our population, and spend on an average nearly $90,000,000 a year for coffee. Two-thirds of the world' Hiipply of coffee comes from Brazil, which places an export duty of 11 per cent upon the fragrant berry. Tho fin est coffee in the world Is grown In Porto Rico, Cuba and the Phllllpines and un der the stimulation of American enter prise these countries will, within a few years, be able to supply tho world with coffee. What this means to tho coffee consumer he can clearly understand. It is a curious fact that red-headed people are far less apt to become bald than those whose hirstute covering is of another hud. The average crop nn the head of a red haired person Is said to be 30,000 hairs. Ordinary dark hair is far finer, and over three dark hairs take up the space of one red ono; 105,000 are about the average. But fair-haired people are still hotter off; 140,000 to 160,000 are quite a common number of hairs on tho scalp of a fair haired man or woman. A curious cal culation has been made to the effect that the hairs on the head of a fair haired person, If they could be plaited together, would sustain a weight of something like eighty tons, equaling that of 500 people. Medical Record. United States Senator M. S. Quay, his son, Richard R. Quay, and Charles H. McKoe, of Pittsburg, law partner of Lieut. Gov. Walter Lyon, appeared be fore Magistrate Jermon, in Central station court in Philadelphia, Wednes day, to answer to the charge of conspir acy in tho alleged mis-uso of public moneys In connection with John S. Hop kins, former cashier of the Peoples bank, of Philadelphia, who committed suicide soon after the failure of the bank in March last. After a hearing looting throe hours' Senator Quay and his son and Mr. McKee wore bound over for appearance at the next term of court. Dail was fixod at 95,000 In each case. David H. Lane, a Philadelphia political leader, went on the bond. The case now goes on the list for trial at the .term of oourt beginning in November. The Kittannlng Republican advises the farmer to take a week off and go piontclng with his family or neighbors. The liepublicun says: "The farmer Is the only man who does not take a vaca tion In the true sense of the word. Be has his cows to attend to and bis bogs to feed, and this or that crop to look after, and while be may not work at his hardest gait every day In the year, he ' bus these things on bis mind. He gets to thinking after be has kopt this up year after your, that the world can not get along unless be is on hand every morning, and this satisfies him and con vinces hhn that a week away is among the, impossibilities.'

Soino students seem to think they have no part in tho work of this col umn and nro Inclined to thrust, tbo whole burden upon the editors. This enterprise was not. undertaken that two or three might profit by It, but for the benefit of tho whole High School Sub JuniorH, Juniors and Seniors. Now give tho editors your support. Writing for Ihls column affords ex cellent practice, for sometime In lifo we will have to tuko some purl, in work of this kind. Our Literary Society affords opportunity for us to become ublo to present our Ideas before our fellow men, and to overcomo stage fright, which nearly everyone experiences In his first attempt to talk before nn audience. Hy taking pin t continually In our society wo are soon able to nvold this unneces sary embarrassment. Hut by writing we are benefited in u different way. When a student writes for n paper ho feels that ull eyes will be upon his work and ho naturally tries to do his best. Then thorn Is great satisfaction in see ing one's own literary effort in print. There Is nothing that will give self respect to a young mnn or woman more than literary training. Therefore, stu dents, write and make your debut In tho liternry world. Tho public will not criticise. All who have acquired tho ability to write made their beginning one day anil they know with what anx iety they submitted their first produc tion to the press. Who can tell but that some day ono of tho High School students will become famous by some great oration on a leading problem of his day, or the School turn out a great author or poet like Irving, Cooper, Dickons, Longfellow or Bryant. Think, students, what you may real ize by grasping this opportunity to develop the dormant powers of your minds. Do not bo discouraged If your first attempt is not as flowery and pleas ing In diction as your favorite author. Remombor you do not know what his or her first attempt may have boon. Tho only way to become successful Is to try again and again. Let us all join In ono mighty effort to do the most possi ble for ourselves, the editors and the H. S. column. LOCAL. It seems that some of the Sub-Juniors are destined to be astronomers. They are continually gazing around the room. Information Wanted We would like to know, in the time of the Salem witchcraft whether the witches were committed to murder or to the scaffold. Rather queer, Isn't It, that the world "would go around as usual" if some of the Juniors were not In It? There was a meeting of tho board of directors on Monday evening, Oct 3, 1898. Tho boui-d appointed a commit tee to examine and make a report of the condition of tho " lower rooms, the report to bo given on Friday, Oct. 7. Tbe purpose of this meoting was to decide whether they will have an additional school room or not. The lower rooms are crowded very much and the addition of a new school and toucher would be a great relief. It has been said that the Seniors are not as green as they are cabbage looking. The Subs, are very studious, especial ly during the recitation period. Too bad, yea, moreover, too bad that the Juniors do not have sufficient time to dispose of the business of the class without fighting. The Seniors have had tho bluos for three yours (light blue and dark bluo). Harry Herpol is In Pittsburg this week. Chas. C. Hammond spent Saturday in DuBols. Dr. Foust was a distinguished visitor of the upper rooms Friday and during the afternoon paid his respects to the High School. One of the '00's is learning to ride a "bike" and in consequence Is having many trials and tribulations.

Ponce, Porto Rico, Sept. 22, 1R8. On board tho transport Ohdam. Deah Parents: We arrived In tbo harbor of Ponce this morning, all well and feeling good. After leaving Mld dletown we took the cars and tho next morning arrived In Jersey City. After about ono hour stay we took the ferry boat and crossed over to Brooklyn and stayed there until 11 o'clock Wednesday night and then we started on our jour ney to Porto Rico. Well, the first thing that hapcncd worthy of mention was on Saturday morning, tho 18th. At about 8 o'clock It started to rain and the sea began to roll nnd every minute Increased tho fury of tho storm until It reached t,he point where we expected every minute would be our Inst. It was something awful, tho waves were like mountains and we were all very anxious for It to culm. The ship crew suld It was tbo worst storm that they cvcrexcrionced. They ordered everybody down and had everything shut up. I never want to bo in another storm at sea. Wo were ull sea sick tho first day out but soon got over It. Well, we sillied to Sun Juan and got there on tho 21st. Our boat signalled fur a pilot, which came out after a de lay of about ono hour, nnd he Inform ed us that, we could not. land, (us that was our Intention) because ho suld tho war was not over. They would not us much as tuko tho mail off, so we left for this port. At San Juan we could plainly see where Sampson bombarded the fort. Ho kntcked the ono end all to pieces. Our ship only lay about onn mllti from tho fort and I think it must have been tempting for tho Spunlsh gunners. Wo are now waiting in the hnrbor until the cargo is unloaded before we can be taken off, which I think will be tomorrow. I like the looks of the conn try and think it will bo all right to live In. Our ship Is surrounded by small boats; some with fruit, some with bread and others ready to take anybody off that wants to go to shore. Herb, Jay and I bought some bread of one of the bouts and had It for dinner. It was all right as it was tho first we had had since leaving Brooklyn. The other two battalions of the 10th are In camp about thirty miles from here so wo will have a little journey to make as soon as we land. It Is mining bore now and as this is the rainy season It rains every day. Well, us I hnvo no more time, I will write ngatn as soon as wo get In camp. This will go back on the same ship we came on, Obdam. Hand this to Editor Stephenson when you read It and I will write to him often when I got to camp. We are all busy getting things ashore. Walter D. Williams, Ponco, Porto Rico. Co. L, loth Reg., P. V. I. Wise and Otherwise. Few people know what not to say. An ignoramus is a spontaneous agnos tic. Glittering generalities do not illumi nate the Path of Success. A woman conveys most of hor mean ing between the sentences. Wo never know how little we value a thing, until the bill comes In. An old man usually has a lot of Bonne, but Is often so cross that be can't use it. A penny saved Is a penny earned; for it is a good deal of work to save a penny. Many a man who thinks he Is think ing Is merely digesting yesterday's newspaper. Satire is like a mustard plaster we don't feel the sting until It is applied to ourselves. So far, the doctors havo persuaded people to have everything else out out bt their tongues. It Isn't so well to know so much as to have what little you do know sharpened down to a fine point. Procrastination is the thiol of time, and Industry is the only policeman that can catch up with him. Every time you advise a man and tell him he is running up against a stone wull he thinks it Is a bluff. When a woman looks at a man he never knows whether she is admiring him, or thinking how plain he Is. Truth crushed to earth will rise aguin; but, in the meantime, there is usually time to get out several war ex tras. God made the country, man mude the town; the train service between the two is supposed to be a device of the devil's. Muny folks dislike to be told that they are looking in perfect health, for the reason that it is a condition which admits absolutely of no sympathy. Pittsburg Daily New. The latest product of scientific pro pagation Is the odorless onion. Just bow an onion can be odorless and still remain an onion is not explained. To most people the odor is all there is of an onion, and that is enough. Tbe elimination of the characteristic feature of a vegetable of such long and Btrong standing in natural history ought to be reckoned among the proudest achieve ments of man. But an onion deprived of that delicious twang aud the pene trating scent which goes with it can hardly be an onion. The palate which loves onions will not recognize it; call ing av whitened, innocuous, insipid, plated bulb an Anion will not make it o tie. Ex. Reduced Rates to Pittsburg.
