FEW editors can point to a political career like that of Editor Ruuch's, of the Maucli Chunk Democrat. Fifty two years ago he started as an active participant in campaigns, and never missed one since then. At that time he was a red-hot Harrison (Benny's grandfather) man, but he afterwards saw the error of his ways and had the supreme pleasure of assisting to defeat the grandson of the man he helped to elect. ABOUT the only consolation our Re publican brethren has these days is constructing cabinets for Grover, then devoting a column or two of critiscism to their work. They might spend their time more profitably in apolo gizing to their readers for the million or two of campaign lies they put in circulation the past few months, hut Republicans will take nothing hack, except the eleven Northern states that broke away from their jurisdiction two weeks ago, and they can't have them. LOCAL newspaper are often accused of bins in regard to giving notices, of mentioning the coming and going of some and omitting others. The fault is with the people not with the editor. He is always willing, and even anx ious, to tell everything that occurs, if he can find out. If you have visitors let us know who they are and where they came from. If anything hap pens in your vicinity, let us know about it; if there is a party at your house, furnish us with an account of it; if you get married, let us know; if you know anything that would be of interest to the public, send it this way. You will find us as ready to no tice one as another, patrons or other wise, friend or foe. Our object is to give all the news. THE Philadelphia Press is certain the new county question will come before the legislature at its next ses sion, inasmuch as Kline was elected on that issue. This prophecy will no doubt hold good. With the aid of a portion of Lackawanna county, Hazle tonians had their ,wish gratified in electing a senator, and they will work hard to bring about the consumma tion of the scheme. Freeland and Poster, however, may be relied npon to roll up another such majority against it as they did on the recent legislative vote. The TRIBUNE stated over a year ago there would be no plain sailing for the new county, and the set-back one of its advocates re ceived on election day is merely the beginning of the fight against a divi sion of the county. Hazletonians have found that the people of the North Side cannot be used to boost their little fads. UNEASY lies the head that wears a crown applies forcibly to Hon. W. H. Hines. His election to congress is all well enough if it did not carry with it the right and privilege to dis pense the patronage that comes through the Cleveland administration. There's where the pinch comes in. In nearly every city, borough and township of Luzerne there are from five to twenty applicants for post offices all of whom certainly cannot be supplied. Now the task of picking out who should be the lucky person age is a very delicate one and no mat ter what care is exercised there will be heartburnings and personal disap pointments. Others, however, have gone through the same boat and wrecked their chances for the future in doing so and Congressman Hines must also do the same. But it would be much nicer if the issue did not have to be met. — Newsdealer. THE K. of L. Journal, in an able article last Thursday, arrived at the conclusion that the Republican party, so far as national politics are concern ed, will never be heard of again, although it may be able to keep up a sort of a guerilla warfare in different localities for a few years. It also states ihat the reign of the Democrats will bo short-lived, unless its leaders begin a strong fight against the evils under which the people are resting. This fight must not only be against the tariff, but, to keep the people on its side, the party will have to deal radically with the currency, land and transportation questions. The voters have stated in no uncertain manner that they want reform all around,'and any dilly-dallying with their wishes will result in Democracy's overthrow in four years from now. If the in coming party, the Journal says, does not do its duty the People's party will assuredly be given the next chanco. When Baby wag sick, wo gavo her Castoria.'

FAMILY WARS THAT HAVE CON TINUED FOR GENERATIONS. Coiiiliets in Kentucky Which Involved Whole Counties—They Are Rapidly Dy ing Out Ilcfore Civilixation'ti Advance. Records of Some Families. Relics of antiquity are always highly prized, and it is doubtless for that rea son that we cherish an interest in the few family feuds that linger 011 in civi lization's track as reminders of the bar barism of our distant forefathers. They are unique now and worthy of the newspaper reader's especial attention, because of their rarity, though there was a time when they were o common that except where the station of the par ticipants was high, as in the case of the Marmiou-Douglas row, or where there was some frill of romance attached, as in the Montague-Capulet quarrel, the gossiping chroniclers of the day made 110 more mention of them than a news papers nowadays does of a plain mur der. That time was in the good days of old when knights were bold, and a baron differed from a bandit only in the ex tent of his stealings from the people. So far as they have existed in the United States they have been most prevalent in the mountains of Kentucky. The lurid glory of the Kentucky feud has departed. The last echoes of the old quarrels are dying away in the haunts of the survivors, and a new order of things has come in eastern Kentucky, so long scourged by these bloody and brutal vendettas. The crack of the Winchester is still heard, and fights con tinue more numerous than prayer meet ings. There may be occasional out breaks for years to come, but the day of the full grown feud has vanished. The unsympathetic law and the un congenial touch of civilization, with its railroads, and its land syndicates, and its town builders have dispelled the old conditions that nurtured the feud. The old leaders are dead, or in prison, or living in peace. Craig Tolliver is dead. Boone Logan and the Youngs are prac ticing law. Andy Johnson is a capital ist. The Yellow Creekers have become land speculators or gone west. Wils Jennings and the Hatfields are in the penitentiary. Joe Eversole has been killed. A saw log dispatched Jerry Lit tle. "General" Sowders is a quiet citi zen, and his old enemy, Alvis Turner, is slain. Ten years ago Governor Knott treated the feudsmen of Rowan county as bel ligerent nations, and invited the leaders down to Louisville to make a treaty of peace under his benign auspices. To day the most powerful leader in any mountain quarrel is held to answer be fore the Clark county circuit court for his crimes, like any other ordinary law breaker. The contrast represents the changed attitude of the people toward the feud. There have been almost innumerable feuds in Kentucky, but those which last ed longest, involved the greatest num ber of people and claimed most victims, becoming remarkable as anomalous out breaks of crime for this period of civi lization, were eight in number. They were the Turner-Sizemore feud, in Knott county; the Strong and the Little feuds, in Breathitt county; the Martin-Tolliver war, in Rowan county; the Turner-Sow ders feud, in Bell county; the Turner- Howard quarrel, in Hardin county; the Hatfield-McCoy feud, on the West Vir ginia border, in Pike county, and the French-Eversole war, in Perry county. There was no foolishness about any of these affairs. They were not the simple primitive forays of Bitter Creek terrors. They were regular wars involving alto gether many hundreds of men, and with a death roll counting well up into the hundreds. They terrorized entire coun ties, put a stop to all business but that of killing, drove scores of people per manently from their homes, held the civil power at bay and required frequent calls upon the military strength of the state in order that courts might be held at all. They have cost the state several hundred thousands of dollars, and have put an almost ineffaceable blot upon its reputation. When the lawless spirit in the Ken tucky mountains had its beginning and how would be difficult to say. Thou sands of square miles of mountain re gion; with no settlements larger than mere hamlets; with the nearest railroad sometimes more than a hundred miles away; with almost no communication with the outside world, and with a pop ulation shut in by rugged mountains to its own devices, offered a favorable soil for the germination of petty quarrels, which soon grew into ugly feuds. Large family connections are the rule in the mountains, where the boys and girls marry in their teens, and when a feuds man called his clan to battle they started up, like the men of Rlioderick Dhu, from every bush and stump. There were no cares of business to distract attention from the quarrels. Most of the people are farmers, who need to work but little on their hilly patches to raise the little that they require, leaving them abun dant leisure for the serious business of fighting. Feuds probably existed before the war, but we have heard little of them if they did. The familiarity with scenes of bloodshed which many thousand moun taineers acquired while serving against the rebellion—for the section was over whelmingly Union in sentiment—doubt less had much to do with the subsequent fuller development of the feud into something unique in its line. They made good soldiers, but they didn't know when to quit fighting. From sire to son the passion for tumult and bloodshed has been transmitted, and some of the most dangerous outlaws in the mountains have been boys under twenty, while most of the leaders in the greatest of the feuds have been under thirty years of age.—St. Louis Globe-Democrat. Within three years the United States have bought from the Indians about 30,01)0,000 acres of land, yet there re mains about live Uuies that area. BUILDING SPIDERS' WEBS. Method of Tw o Pet Inserts Tlmt Did Not Mind Being Observed. As the webs which IUV spiders—Lucy and Eliza—spun were several times broken or mutilated during the year, either by accident or the gardener, we had plenty of chances for seeing how they proceeded in making them. The lines were in both cases stretched be tween a white rose bush that climbed up one side of the window and a purple clematis that occupied and draped the opposite mullion. But Lucy and Eliza didn't live in the webs—those were only their snares or traps for their prey. Each of them had in addition a private home or apartment of her own under shelter of a rose leaf at some distance from the treacherous geometrical structure. The house itself consisted merely of a silken cell, built out from the rose leaf, and connected with the snare by a single stout cord of very solid construction. On this cord the spider kept one foot—l had almost said one hand—constantly fixed. She poised it lightly by its claws, and whenever an insect got entangled in the web a subtle electric message, so to speak, seemed to run along the line to the ever watchful carnivore. In one short second Lucy or Eliza, as the case might be, had darted out upon her quarry and was tackling it might and main, according to the particular way its size and strength rendered then and there advisable. In building their webs, as in many other small points, Lucy and Eliza showed from the first no inconsiderable personal differences. Lucy began her's by spinning a long line from her spin nerets,and letting the wind carry it wher ever it would; while Eliza, more archi tectural in character, preferred to take her lines personally from point to point, and see herself to their proper fastening. In either case, however, the first thing done was to stretch some eight or ten stout threads from place to place on the outside of the future web, to act as points d'appui for the remainder ef the structure. To these outer threads, which the spiders strengthened so as to bear a considerable strain by doubling and trebling them, other thinner single threads were then carried radially at ir regular distances, like the spokes of a wheel, from a point in the center, where they were all made fast and connected together. As soon as this radiating framework or scaffolding was finished, like the woof on a loom, the industrious craftswoman started in the middle and began the task of putting in the crosspieces or weft which were to complete and bind to gether the circular pattern. These she wove round and round in a continuous spiral, setting ont at the center and keeping on in ever widening circlets, till she arrived at last at the exterior or foundation threads. liow she fastened these crosspieces to the ray lines I could never quite make out, though I then fol lowed the work closely from inside through the pane of glass with a laty scopic lens; for, strange to say, the j spiders were not in the least disturbed by being watched at their work, and never took the slightest notice of any thing that went on at the other side of the window. My impression is, however, that she gummed them together, letting them harden into one us they dried, for the thread itself is always semiliquid when first exuded.—Grant Allen in Longman's Magazine. The Hone. At all times the rose has enjoyed pe culiar favor as a sacred flower. Moham medan tradition says that when Saladin captured Jerusalem he refused to enter the shrine of the temple which had been converted into a church by the Crusaders till the walla had been thoroughly cleansed and purified with rosewater. A similar story is told of the Church of St. Sophia, at Constantinople, when trans formed from a Christian place of wor ship to a Mohammedan mosque, Tho origin of the rose, according to Moslem tradition, is that the blood of the prophet sprang into new life in this glorious crimson flower. To this day, when a Turk sees a rose lying on the ground, he will raise it tenderly, kiss it reverently and deposit the frail blossom in some place of safety. The followers of Zoroaster have a the ory that prior to the existence of sin in the world the roso was a thornless flow er. In the east it is a tradition to this day that the burning bush in which the angel of the Lord appeared to Moses was a rosebush, while in tho Roman Catholic church the rose still retains no little element of the sacred character which it would appear to have enjoyed in all religions.—New York News. Kidnaping in Australia. The Sydney Truth tells of doings in western Australia which seem very like the "blackbirding" that has been going on among the Gilbert islands lately—:# o term means the taking away of natives in shiploads to work in foreign lands under a system which is practically slavery. Truth calls the western Aus tralian squatters "modern slavers." It says that when the squatter wants labor era he shuts his eyes to government reg ulations and simply goes out "muster ing." He raids a native camp, and "by the aid of a conniving magistrate, who may himself want to go mustering next week, entangles the natives into a form of agreement purporting to be a twelve months' engagement." Desertions promptly follow, and rear rest as promptly follows desertion. "It is a common sight to see a gang of blacks, chained by the necks, being escorted from one prison to another by black po licemen as deserters." It is alleged that this system of kidnaping is in full oper ation in western Australia. That llrought Him Kouml. A miser was at his last gasp. "He is unconscious," said his wife. "We will see," said the doctor. "Go at once to the chemists for this elixir; it only costs a hundred francs." "Too dearl" groaned the dying man.— Croix. AGE OF THE EARTH. I A FASCINATING STUDY THAT IS ELU CIDATING A GREAT MYSTERY. The Science of Geology Shows That the I Age of the World Varies Between 73,- I 000,000 Uiul 0H0,000,000 Years—How These Computations Are Made. At the recent meeting of the British I association a discourse was delivered by j the president, Sir Archibald Gerkie, on i one of the most interesting problems in I modern science—the age of the world. | Gver a century has elapsed since James Hutton wrote his "Theory of the Earth," which was the first attempt to formulate a chronology of creation in accordance with the discoveries of science; since then knowledge has made vast strides, and his followers have access to a mass of information which he did not possess. Playfair and Kelvin improved upon his work, and now Gerkie and the school to which he belongs have gone beyond them. Geologists have ascertained that the rate at which erosion takes place can be measured; by applying their scale to the sedimentary rocks they have formed a hypothesis as to the time which has elapsed since erosion began. To put the proposition in similar language, the sur face of the globe is constantly wearing away under the influence of water and wind. The portions which are worn off are carried down to the sea or into hol lows, where they are deposited and form sedimentary rocks. If we can ascertain how long it takes to form a sedimentary rock we can figure out when the progress of wearing away and redepositing began. Sir Archibald states that 011 a reason able computation the stratified rocks at tain an average thickness of 100,000 feet. The material of which they consist was all washed down from high planes, de posited and left to stratify. By Abe in spection of river hanks it is found that in places the surface of the laud which has been carried down as sediment in rivers has been reduced at the rate of a foot in 730 years, while in other places, where the land was more stubborn or less flexible, it has taken 0,800 years to lower the surface 0110 foot. The deposit must be equal to the denudation. Thus we find that while some of the sedimen tary rocks have grown a foot in 730 years others have taken 0,800 years to rise that height. Thus the period of time that was required to build up 100,- 000 feet of sedimentary rock has varied according to locality from 73,000,000 years to 080,000,000 years. It follows' that the active work of creation lasted for a cycle intermediate between these two figures. The cycle varied with end less succession of periods of disturbance by volcanic force and glacial action, and the frequent submersion of dry land, alternating with the emerging of continents out of the seas. These may have retarded the growth of sedimen tary rocks, hut they cannot have accel erated it. A study of fossils teaches the steady uniformity with which the work of creation proceeded. Since man began to observe there has been no change in the forms of animal and vegetable life. A few species have disappeared—not one new species has been evolved. Not only do we find the fauna and flora of ancient Egypt as depicted on monuments which are probably 8,000 or 10,000 years old identical with those which are found in that country today, but shells which in habited our seas before the ice age and grew in an ocean whose bed overlay the Rocky mountains are precisely the same species that are found in the Bay of Monterey and the waters of the Chesa peake. It is evident that there has been no essential change in the conditions of life since these animals and these vege tables were first created, yet how vast the shortest period which we can assign to the gap that divides us from that re mote epoch! Little by little the geologist is lifting the veil which covers the prehistoric record of our planet. The era which preceded the age of civilized man, with its vast rivers carrying down diluvial floods to the ocean, and the bursting forth of mountain ranges from contrac tions of the earth's crust has been painted to the life. But no one has exercised his pencil on that preceding age, when the forests made way for clumps of stunted birch and willow, incessant snowfalls covered the plains, glaciers crept down from the north, and gradually a vast sheet of ice half a mile thick drove man kind, with the mammoth and the rein deer, to those fortunate regions which, like California, escaped the agony of the last ice age. Nor have we any distinct perception of that subsequent age when the ice melted or receded to the pole, or dense tropical jungle grew up in the morasses it had left, swamps steaming with trop ical heat swarmed with uncouth ba trachian and reptile life, trees of mon strous growth shed their shade over shiny pools and black ooze, and in the distance long mountain ranges whose fontanel had not yet closed, poured a never ceasing flood of lava down their sides.

A party of guests from a well known New Hampshire hotel deserted the piaz zas and wandered down into the mead ows to view the splendors of a mountain sunset. In the party were Miss B , a fasci nating girl of sweet and twenty, her mother and Professor K , an old so journer and authority on all points of interest in the vicinity. "I should love to climb Mount Tecum seh. Have you ever tried it, professor?" inquired Miss B . "Yes," replied the oracle of West O ; "it's a tough tramp—over five miles to the summit." "Oh, mamma," exclaimed Miss B enthusiastically. Mount Tecuinseh is over five miles high I"—Kate Fields Washington. 1 1 CURE THAT i Cold ; 1 ' 1 | AND STOP THAT 11 i Cough, ii >N. H.
