FREELAND, NOVEMBER 24, 1892.
THE railway companies of the coun
try are looking forward to 1893 as
the most prosperous year that they
will have for some time, as the im
mense traffic from ever portion of the
United States to the Chicago fair will
help them all, no matter where locat
ed. Meetings have already been held
by the leading lines to consider what
the rates shall be from different
points, but no figures have yet been
agreed upon. It is impossible to es
timate the number of people who
will attend the fair.
THE Philadelphia Press has opened
its batteries on Matt Quay, and gives
notice that it will fight him in his de
sire to be returned to the senate. It
says there is far more opposition to
him than is suspected, and intimates
that a little work among the members
of the legislature will result in his
defeat, The great battle the Press
waged against Cameron two years ago
gives it courage to tackle Quay, and,
for the sake of the state's reputation,
Democrats should aid in the move
ment against his re-election.
ALL the honors that victorious
Democracy can bestow have been
showered upon William F. Harrity
since election day, but these things
have not yet brought on that malady,
usually termed "swelled head," so
common with successful leaders. His
emphatic declaration that he does not
want his name mentioned in connec
tion with a cabinet or any other office
is good proof that the viciory he did
so much in winning has only increased
his natural modesty. Harrity, how
ever, will be remembered before his
gray hairs appear.
WHEN Garfield was president he I
placed the limit of the pension expen
ditures at $35,000,000. Grant con
sidered that $30,000,000 was more
than sufficient, but what would these
two soldiers say today, were they
alive, at the prospect of paying out
$275,000,000 for pensions in 1893?
That is the estimate placed for next
year by government officials, who cal
culate for the future upon the present
loose method by which money is
awarded. A prompt and thorough
revision of the pension list is neces
sary. It is filled with thousands of
names of men who never saw the
smoke of a battle, and no one should
be more anxious in assisting this re
form than the real veterans of the
war.
JUST like the strike here five years
ago the Homestead affair collapsed all
of a sudden, and the men vied with
one another in their eagerness to get
to the Carnegie offices to ask for
work. This is the end of nine of
every ten strikes that take place. It
makes but little difference how just
the demands of the men may be, or
what principle is involved in the con
test, public sympathy soon dies out
and an unconditional surrender fol
lows. Strikes do some good in prov
ing to workingmen that they must
look for some other remedy to allevi
ate their burdens, and if they can set
the masses thinking the time and
money spent in them is 'no means
lost. But to strike in the hope of
bettering their condition or gaining
any permanent advantage over their
employers—that is fallacious.
Co-operative Vacations.
Those who live on the seashore need j
for their recreation a little journey to j
the mountains or into the interior plains
of the country. The one in the interior
needs, on the contrary, the moist salt sea
air. The people who toil the hardest
and most steadily are the ones really
best entitled to outings. They are the
ones most benefited by the change.
The happy period has come in our his
tory when such vacs*.one, such changes
and outing trips are within reach of the
poor. The girl who earns only a few
dollars a week may have her vacation.
The way to manage it is through co
operation. If a number of girls or
young workingmen would begin now
and lay by each a small sum weekly for
the vacation trip, by the time summer
came the money would be ready. A
very small amount would be enough.
There are cottages by the seashore and
in the mountains, plain little honses,
where the rent is cheap. The furniture
might be only of the temporary kind
used in camping. Young men might
hire a cook. Girls can always do theii
own cooking. There will be plenty of
time.
The appetite is so good (luring vaca
tion trips that nobody is fussy about
eating. A cottage rented for the season
by an association of vacation seekers
could be occupied in turn by installments
of the members, each installment having
it a week, then giving place to the next.
Between now and next summer charm
ing spots can be found, the cottage 01
tent rented, the parties made up and the
money saved. A vast amount of pleas
ure can be got out of small means where
£hero are intelligence and pluck.
THE GREAT MONEY CONFERENCE.
It Urging Its Sessions at Brussels—Sen
ator Levi Chairman.
BRUSSELS, NOV. 23.—The international
monetary conference was opened at 3 p.
□i. by the Belgian premier, M. Beernaert, in
the marble hall of the Palais ties Academies.
M. Beernaert was warmly received by the
American and French delegates, but evoked
fewer signs of approval from the delegates
of Austria, Germany and England. At the
close of his address Senator Montefiore
1 Levi was elected chairman of the conference
and Edwin H. Terrell, United States min
ister to Belgium, was elected vice chairman.
Fenator Levi made no pretense of sympathy
with the goldbugs, and described the pres-
I pnt condition of the world's money as pecul-
I Inr for its unprecedented instability,
j There is no doubt that the English, Ger
man and Austrian delegates will follow a
dog-in-the-manger policy. So far as can
be ascertained none of them has come with i
the idea of making a serious proposal for j
the rehabilitation of silver, and they will ;
assume a purely negative attitude toward
any such proposal coming from the United
States or France. In both Austria and
Germany the allusions of the press to the
conference are almost without exception
to the effect that it represents the efforts of
the silver producing states in America to
enhance their product at the expense of the
rest of the world.
It is very apparent that the Austrian,
German and English delegates will be
the leaders of every effort to render futile
any work attempted by the United States
or members of the IjUtin union
MRS. AUGUST BELMONT DEAD.
She Was the Noted Turfman's Widow
and Commodore Perry's Niece.
NEW YORK, NOV. 21.—Mrs. August Bel
mont, widow of the financier and turfman,
died Sunday at her home, 109 Fifth avenue.
Mrs. Belmont was the daughter of Com
modore Matthew Calbraith Perry and a
member of one of the old historical families
of America. Her grandfather was Chris
topher Raymond Perry, who served in the
navy during the revolutionary war. Chris
topher Perry married in 1784, and the male
members of his family have served in the
navy with distinction.
The two most notable were Commodore
Oliver Hazard Perry, the hero of Lake
Erie, who was Mrs. Belmont's uncle, and
Commodore Matthew Perry, her father.
John I. Davenport's Expenses.
WASHINGTON, NOV. 23. —Secretary Charles
Foster has received the open letter ad
dressed to him by Congressman A. P.
Fitch regarding the payment of moneys to
John I. Davenport, chief supervisor of
New York, for fees and marshals' expenses.
The secretary would not indicate whether
he would withhold payment of Mr. Dav
enport's accounts, as was requested by Mr.
Fitch. _________
President Sturges Co-respondent.
NEW YORK, NOV. 23.— Edward .1. Wool
sey has obtained an order requiring Fannie
S. Woolsey to show cause why the judg
ment for divorce which she obtained against
him should not be set aside. Woolsey al
leges that his wife has been intimate with
Frank A. Sturges, president of the New
York stock exchange, and Edward Perdel
ford.
Extensive Fire at Olean.
OLEAN, N. Y., NOV. 23. —Fire destroyed
the Blake Opera house block, a four story
brick and two two story blocks adjoining
on Union street, in the heart of the busi
ness section of the city. The first floors
were occupied by Andrews & Conkling's
furniture store, Blake 6c Wilkinson's hard
ware store and a bakery. Loss, $<30,000.
The Panama Canal Scandal.
PARIS, NOV. 23.—The chamber seems un
able to choose the commission of thirty
three to investigate the affairs of the Pana
ma Canal company. The deputies decline
to serve. M. Ribot's declaration that the
Colombian government has not yet con
sented to prolong the canal company's con
cession has excited general comment.
Four Bullets in a Burglar.
BROOKLYN, NOV. 23.—Mrs. William G.
Ford, of Bensonhurst, helped her husband
to capture a burglar in their home on
Twenty-second avenue, and then dressed
the wounds of the housebreaker after Mr.
Ford had put four bullets into hira. The
burglar gave his name as John Buckley
Edmunds on tlie Coal Deal.
CHICAGO, Nov. 23.—Ex-Senator George F.
Edmunds, who is now in this city, believes
that the Reading coal combine is amenable
to the Sherman antitrust law and its
product liable to seizure by the govern
ment, while the principals are liable to ar
rest and imprisonment.
Grosvenor AMRHIIH Carnegie.
WASHINGTON, NOV. 23. Congressman
elect Grosvenor, of Ohio, is in town. Gen
eral Grosvenor, who is a close friend and
adviser of Governor McKinley, brands Mr
Carnegie as "a bandy legged Scotchman,
who would go down to history as the arch
sneak of this age."

To Examine the Alleged Miracle Window*
Tfie Canton (Minn.) church window
miracle, which has for several months
been the cause of much excitement in
Minnesota and northwestern religious
circ les, is to be decided upon by a thor
ough scientific examination by Bishop
J. B. Cotter, of Winona, within whose
jurisdiction the so called miracle exists.
Several weeks ago the inhabitants of
the little village of Canton, near Lanes
boro, were startled by the announce
ment that a portrait had by divine
means been imprinted in a window of
the Catholic church there, of which j
Father Jones is pastor. The news spread,
and thousands visited the village daily
on foot and in carriages. At first the
apparition appeared to consist of a
young and comely woman with an in
fant in arms, aijd at times a dim halo
was discernible about her head. The
story then took the form that this was
a portrait of the Virgin Mary and
Christ, and the crowds of visitors in
creased tenfold. Paralytic cripples and
other afflicted persons came in droves,
and after a glimpse of the picture
threw away their crutches, exclaiming
Mi at they were cured.
The matter finally attracted such
widespread attention that Bishop Cotter
visited the church in company with
Father Cojne, of Lanesboro, and Father
Perrin, of Brownville. The window,
which is in the north gable of the
church, was removed, and the bishop per
sonally brought it to Winona, where he
will give it a thorough examination in
company with other prominent Catholic
clergymen. The bishop is of the opin
ion that the glass, which shows a slight
discoloration, was once a church win
dow, and that an adjacent building al
lowed the light to strike it at an angle
which rendered the figures visible.—
Chicago Tribune.
Lent by the Vatican.
The exhibition opened in honor oi
Christopher Columbus at Madrid has
just received two of its most interesting
exhibits, and the lender has been the
Vatican. They are geographical maps
of very early date and of extreme rarity.
One drawn in the lifetime of Alexander
VI shows the chart of the world as it
was believed to exist at the commence
ment of the Sixteenth century. A line,
the drawing of which is traditionally
ascribed to Alexander himself, defines
the limits of the Spanish possessions in
America, and separates them from those
of Portugal.
The second map—less ancient than
the first—has a greater historical value,
as the precise dato is not left to con
jecture. An inscription in Spanisli an
nounces that it is the handiwork of the
cosmographer of the king of Spain, who
prepared it by command of the king at
Seville in the year 1520, and under it is
the rather naive announcement, not that
it is a map of the world, but a map of
so much of the world as had been dis
covered,up to that date.
These documents are the more inter
esting as their authenticity and pedigree
are above all doubt. They come from
the famous museum originally founded
by Cardinal Borgia when he was prefect
of the propaganda. No European insti
tution is so rich in ethnographic treas
ures, which have poured into it from all
parts of the Christian world in answn
to eloquent and pressing appeals.
Volapuk Up to Date.
Volapuk, the new tongue which was
to bind all articulate creation together
in the bond of a common language, has
been hut little heard of for some time
past. In Belgium, however, the Vola
pukists are showing signs of life. A
conference of Volapukists, as they arc
called, is being held at Brussels, and ac
cording to all accounts much enthusiasm
is being displayed for Pastor Schleyer
and his system.
The Volapukists profess to be indiffer
ent to the ridicule with which they have
been assailed. Their pet notion is des
tined to triumph and they can afford to
wait. If the present generation does not
reap the full benefit of their labors, suc
ceeding generations will do so. Such
has been the tenor of their discourses.
But in the meantime, if their figures are
to he trusted, tliey have made solid prog
ress. It is only twelve years since Vola
puk was first promulgated to a world
which is slow to adopt new ideas, and
already by its means 3,000,000 of people
—English, French, German, Russian,
Italian and Belgian—are able to con
verse with each other on that common
ground.
Not only is this so, hut we are told
that thirty newspapers altogether are
published in Volapuk in different parts
of the world; that courses of lectures on
the new language are held at the uni
versities of Munich and Turin, and that
the Russian press censors are hound to
be acquainted with it to qualify them
selves for their posts.—London News.
The Place to Grow Ilumtna..
The country most extensively culti
vated for the growth of bananas, and
which for the past three months has so
distinguished itself by the unusual
quality and lino development of its prod
ucts, is situated in the Republic of
Colombo, Bocas del Toro being now the
shipping center and principal attraction
for planters and merchants engaged in
the industry.
There are at the present time, taken
at a rough estimate, no less than 18,000
acres of land devoted entirely to the cul
tivation of bananas, from which can be
shipped weekly 30,000 bunches, all aver
aging 350 bananas to each bunch. These
are termed "whole bunches"—besides
which about 25,000 bunches of a smaller
size, averaging 200 bananas each (which
are termed halves) Btill remain uncut,
and at the expiration of another week
attain their full size, when they also are
ready for shipment.
At the lapse of the same length of
time perhaps twice the quantity of
hunches are ready to he cut, and so on
from week to week, month to month,
and year to year. New plantations are
continually starting up, taking ten
months from the time the "suckers," or
plants, are first pnt into the ground to
the time they commence to yield.
THANKSGIVING PREPARATIONS.
As the woods along November's hills age gently
through the liuzo
Which veils the Indian summer in the fading
autumn days,
And the good year lingers softly, ere his locks
are crowned with gray.
To hear the harvest blessings of a nation by
the way.
There's an air of invitation in the woods aud
fields and skies
To get ready for Thanksgiving and its famous
pumpkin pies.
The president and governor have issued each
lwis call
J'o the people of this prosperous land to honor,
one and all,
The season when the barns are full, the grana-
ries well stored.
When the farmers and the city folk all count
a fattened horde,
And the housewife, town and country, with
Thanksgiving in her eyes.
Begins to think of turkey and old fashioned
pumpkin pies.
If it bo true that there are some who think
they've naught to bless.
Who eat of sorrow's crust aud feel no cause for
thankfulness.
Whose purse is never filled at all, whose board
is always bare-
Why, there must bo a sympathy for them, too,
In the air,
And thankful twice will be those hearts where
pity's fountains rise
And flow to help poor neighbors to Thanksgiv
ing pumpkin pies.
The quail is calling lithely through the even
ing calm and still.
And the long roll of the pheasant's drum beats
faintly o'er the hill;
The cheerful cider mill creaks out its own
melodious notes
And the chorus of Thanksgiving swells from
multitudes of throats;
Which it's why it's just as well for those who
are good as well as wise
To think of folks who otherwise won't have
their pumpkin pies.
—J. P. 11. in Eliuira Telegram.
TliuukKgiving Mince I'les.
The mincemeat for the Thanksgiving
pies will have been prepared some time
ago. The pies themselves may be baked a
week before the eventful day if need be.
Our grandmothers had a theory that a
mince pie to be prime should Ik? baked sev
eral days before it is eaten, and freezing
was not thought to impair its flavor in the
least. Pumpkin also may be stewed and
canned so as to be in readiness for the deep,
luscious pies whenever they are needed.
To make a pie which shall rival that to
which the Quaker poet has paid tribute
you may first line a deep pie plate with a
rich crust, having a broad rim of crust at
the edge.
Now mix together one and one-half cup
fuls of stewed pumpkin that has been
pressed through a colander or sieve, oue
half cupful of sugar, a salt spoonful each
of ginger and cinnamon, half a teaspoonful
of salt, half a teaspoonful of vanilla, two
eggs beaten light and a little more than a
cupful of rich milk. Bake in a quick
oven. Line a plate in the same manner
for the cranberry tart and All with stewed
berries from which the skins have been
strained. Decorate with twisted strips
and small disks and crescents of pastry, as
our grandmothers used to do. An old fash
ioned cranberry tart is seldom seen in
these days, und will be something of a
curiosity to the children.—Chicago News.
The Puritan Tlianskgiving.
Popular as Thanksgiving day now is
throughout the length and breadth of this
land, it is in New England that it still con
tinues to be what it lias been for morethuu
two centuries—the greatest and most ea
gerly anticipated holiday of the entire year.
The old Puritans and their descendants,
who so long frowned severely upon Christ
mas—which indeed many of the latter still
continue to do, refusing to it any recogni
tion whatever—found an excellent substi
tute for its cheerful hilarity, peace and
good will in Thanksgiving day.
For at least a week before the important
occasion all was activity in an old fash
ioned, rural New England household. A
bushel or more of the best wheat was sent
to the mill to be converted into flour.
Great rounds of beef were chopped up into
mincemeat. Cartloads of yellow pump
kins, with an abundance of milk, spices,
gingqr, molasses and sugar were made up
into pumpkin pies. An abundance of
turkeys, chickens and geese were killed
and made ready for roasting. A pair of
immense plum puddings were baked in
the largest sized earthen pots, with Indian
puddings and custard puddings to match,
while there was baking of pound cake,
plum cake and sponge cuke from morning
till night.—BuiTalo Express.
Family Reunions.
Thanksgiving day dawns upon the world
with an atmosphere of its own. Old Sol
lias memories of Thanksgiving times when
the family reunions were held at the old
homestead in the country. Snow was on
the ground in those days. That happened
before the Snow King and New England
had a falling out. In those good old times
the grown people and the children, ever so
many children there were, climbed into
the old "bob" sleigh among the buffalo
robes, and were driven miles and miles
over the snow covered country to the music
of the sleigh bells. Some of the grand
parents of today were the children then,
and they all remember it. There were
great log fires burning in the fireplaces of
the old homestead, and such a dinner as
was only exceeded by the welcome they re
ceived. That was Thanksgiving in the
good old times.—New York Recorder.
Recognized by the Catholic Church
On Nov. 27, 1884, at Baltimore, the Cath
olics of America, through their represent
atives iu the third plenary council in Bal
timore, for the first time officially recog
nized the Thanksgiving proclamation of
the president and provided for the recog
nition and observance of the day in all
churches of the land for all years to come.
In 1886 a movement was quietly made to
change the date of Thanksgiving day to
Oct. 12, the anniversary of the discovery of
America by Columbus. Ten out of twelve
governors were in favor of the change, but
eventually there was no change made.

Library for a MaKsacliunrtts Town.
Erasmus Haston has offered to give to
the town of North Brookfleld $20,000
outright for a public library building,
or SOO,OOO for the same purpose, provided
the town will pay interest on the latter
sum at the rate of 8 per cent, a year
during his life and that of his wife. It
was a totally unexpected gift and is
highly gratifying to the people of the
town. Most of the people seem to favor
the acceptance of the latter offer, but a
meeting will soon be called to let the
voters decide. Erasmus Haston, the
donor, is a native of Belchertown, born
in 1812.
He was a farmer's boy, and worked
his way along until by industry aud
economy he accumulated a fortune. He
went to North Brookfleld early in life
and for a long time worked at shoe
making, afterward at farming, hut for
the last few years has not been actively
employed at anything. Quiet and mod
est, he has never sought public notice or
public office, but his honorable and up
right dealings with his fellow citizens
have always been recognized.—Spring

tVholei,ule lleer Killing In the Northwest.
Parties who have been out hunting in
the country between the headwaters of
i tile forks of the Santiam bring back ac-
I counts of a wholesale destruction of deer
in that region by Indians. Bands of
Warm Spring and Klickitat Indians, j
numbering from 150 to 200, get permis
sion about July 1 to come over into the |
Willamette valley to pick hops and leave
their reservations. They come in over
the Santiam wagon road and make a
camp at Indian prairie, and then organ- 1
ize a grand roundup of deer. They sur- j
round a vast tract of country on their
ponies, which they ride through a coun
try that a white man can hardly get
through on foot, and drive the deer to
ward a common center, and slaughter j
them by hundreds, killing bucks, fawns
and does indiscriminately, drying the
choice parts of the meat for winter sup
plies, It is stated that in the region
about the headwaters of the various
forks of the Santiam, Indians have this
season slaughtered over 1,000 deer. I
