The cessation of tho war and the

Fifty or sixty thousand troops will bo
Bent to Cuba, Secretary Altfer nays.
They will not be concentrated any more
than is necessary. After all the regi
ments needed for Cuban service have
been desinnt"d about .10,000 troops will
be left in camps. Tho camp at Lexing
ton, Camp Meade In Pennsylvania, and
Camp Black In New York, are to bo
abandoned and only tho southern camps
will be maintained for winter quarters
of the remaining troops.
A number of our exchanges are
spreading the nows that a Slavonic coal
miner was murdorod near this place
one night last week by highway rob
bers. 'Tis false, brethren. Don't charge
our town with more crimes and deviltry
than Is really committed here, for the
peal facts are enough. Tho Slav still
lives and bait no intention of dying from
the wounds received. The murder
story was furnished tho Pittsburg Time
by a correspondent from this place.
Under the new game law the hunting
season did not open until last Saturday.
This makes it entirely too late for good
hunting for game of any kind excepting
doer. Small game, such as squirrels
and pheasants, while somewhat plenti
ful from September until the middle of
October, are srarco about this season of
the year, neither is the weather as fine
(or roaming the woods for game. It is
very probable thut an effort will be
made by sportsmen during the next
session of tho Legislature to have the
present date of the law changed to a
month earlier.
Pennsylvania has made a good begin
ning toward tho system of forest reser
vation, approved by the last legislature.
Since June the Forest Commissioner,
acting under the provisions of the Act
of March 30, 161)7, bas purchased for
the State over 39,000 acres at Treas
uror's sales of unseated lands, at a price
not exceeding taxes and costs. These
lands are located as follows: Clinton
county, 14,089 acres; Clearfield Co. 15,'
000; Lycoming Co. 1,526; Monroe Co,
1,244; Pike Co. 7,400. In addition there
is as much more land In immediate
prospect of purchase on very reasonable
terms. As yet no attempt has been
made to secure lands tn this section of
the State.
People Ignorant and Uncivilised Can't
Speak English Fruit in Abundance.
The following letter was written at
'once, Porto Hlco, September 30th, by
Walter D. Williams to his parents, and
through their kind permission we pub
lish the letter:
Well, we have landed on the Island at
ast. We came ashore on last Sunday,
af tor spending II days on board ship.
We were all glad to got ashore as It
as very uncomfortable on the ship.
After landing we had to make a
march of about 4 miles to our present
amp and ns I ho weather was awful hot
that day it wes hard on us.
From what I have seen of the Island I
think that I will liko it. Our camp Is
located In a beautiful valley and we
ave a big supply of water but as It is
the same water that the city of Ponco
uses it is not very good. We have a
good spring of water to wash our
othes and bathe in, which Is countod
big thing In camp.
Tho city Is very different from our
American cities. The streets are nar
row and the buildings are nearly all of
stone and brick and have a high stone
all around them. Very few of them
are higher than ono story, and I don't
think that thero are two dozen houses
the city that have chimneys on,
hilfl glass windows aro hardly known
to them.
The people Bre a very Ignorant class
and are far from being civilized; there
arc a good many half breeds among
them and there Is hardly one of them
that can speak English, so I think by
the time we get home that we will be
able to speak Spanish.
Fruit is very plentiful hero, such as
bananas, oranges, cocoanuts and several
other kinds, but as we are not used to
the climate we have to be careful and
not eat to much fruit. It Is raining
ere to-day, but that is nothing new
for this country as the rainy season is
not over yet and It rains every day.
It is reported that we are going to
start in a day or two to join our regi
ment, which It about 30 miles inland,
and then we go to San Juan, which will
make our march about 80 miles.
The Reynoldsvllle boys are all well.
I will have to close as it is time for
tho mall to go out and I want this let
ter to go by the next boat.
Respectfully Yours,
Walter D. Williams,
Ponce. Porto Rico.

The indications are that County
Superintendent R. B. Toitrlck will
have a clear field for re-election next
spring. This is as it should be. Mr.
Teitriok has proven himself the right
man in the right place, and he should by
all means be continued In office so long
an be consents to serve. Jefferson was
one of the counties which received
apeoial commendation from the state
superintendent for its advancement last
year. Tills, together with the effeots
of the school training upon the children,
is ample evidence thut great progress
Is being mode in school facilities within
our county. Brockwoyvllle Record.
Prof. Tel trick was The Star's choioe
for County Superintendent three years
ago and we have had no reason to regret
it.
The year 181)8 has boon one of oxoop
tloiiul and abounding prosperity for the
Pnstottioe Department of the United
States. Tho postal revenues have In'
creased at a greater rate than ever be
fore, says the New York Sun. It is ex
peoted that the total income of the de
partmunt will exceed (100,000,000; it
has never previously been higher than
182,000,000 in one year. It is, moreover
expected thut the postal revenues for
tho year will exceed by fully j,00O,0OO
the expenditures of the department.
There has not been a profit from the
revenues of the Poetotlloe Department
iu any fUoal your since 1883, when the
revenue exceeded the expenditure by
about 13.000,000; but tho policy of the
government U out to make a profit from
poRtoHioe operations but to apply the
Increased revenues to Improvements in
t' a service, to an enlargement of its
' ',frto rtitiction of rates.

Consumption, Coughs and Colds. He
declares that gold is of little value in
comparison with this marvelous cure;
would have it, oven if it cost a hundred
dollars a bottle. Asthma, Bronchitis
and all throat and lung affections are
positively cured by Dr. King's New
Discovery for Consumption. Trial bob
ties free at H. A. Stoke's Drug Store.
