UPPER LEHIGH NOTES.
John Charney, one of our Hungarian
residents, has a queer conception of tin
law. While at Freeland last Friday lu
called at Lazorak's bottling works, and
during his inspection of the establish
ment managed to get several bottles of
beer in Ills pockets. As ho was leaving
the stolen bottles were noticed by An
drew Zelonak, who drives for Lazorek.
He gave Charney a chase, but before
capturing him the Upper Lehigh man
fell and cut his head. He contended
that Zelenak was responsible for his in
juries and had him arrested. The jus
tice failed to see the case in the same
light as Charney, and at the lu-arlng
tin; driver was discharged. John came
home a wiser man than when he left,
having learned that the country Is not
so frco nor the law so crooked as he
thought.

FREELAND, PA., JULY 15, 1895.
When Im a Veto Complete?
From the Philadelphia Times.
The fact that Governor Hastings, after
having tiled vetoes of three bills with the
seretary of the commonwealth, recalled
the bills and signed them, lias given rise j
to very general discussion as to whether j
those bills are laws, or whether tin; veto
when filed was his final action on each j
measure.. One of these bills makes an |
appropriation of #200,000 to tho normal i
schools of the state and is therefore very J
important. Tho other two are not of j
such importance as to provoke action to I
test the validity of the veto.
The fifteenth section of the fourth ar- j
ticle of the constitution provides that ;
bills presented to the governor within j
ten days of the final adjournment of the I
legislature, shall become laws without |
his approval "unless he shall file the 1
same with his objections in the oflice of
the secretary of the commonwealth, and
give notice thereof by public proclania- j
tion, within thirty days after such ad- ,
jourument."
On Saturday last the governor prepar
ed a veto of all the hill appropriating •
*2iio.ooo to the normal schools, filed it !
with the secretary of the commonwealth,
and the deputy secretary proclaimed the '
filing of the veto from the s'ops of the
capitol at noon of that date, thus com
plying with all the requirements of the
constitution. On Monday of this week
he withdrew his veto and approved tin
bill.
As this bill involves a very large appro
priation, and as the representatives of a
number of other institutions have been
grieviously disappointed by the veto of
their appropriations, it ismorethau prob
able that measures will be taken to con- i
test the validity of normal school hills. ;
Unless judicial proceedings shall be in
stituted, the state, treasurer and account
ing officers of the state can only obey
the law as it is; for they have 110 judicial
powers and cannot question the validity
of a statue.
If the facts are as generally stated, j
and as yet they are not disputed as far
as we have heard, that the governor
vetoed the normal school appropriation ;
on Saturday, filed liis veto and publicly
proclaimed the same from the steps of
the capitol on that day, it would seen
clear that tho veto was complete and
that tin- courts could enjoin tiie linan- j
ciai officers from the payment of the 1
appropriation
A veto given after the adjournment of
the legislature thus filed, and proclaimed,
complies with every requirement of the j
constitution, and would appear to have
the precise effect of the governor sending
it to the legislature. A veto transmit
ted by the governor to the legislature I
certainly could not be recalled after it
had become a part of the records of the ;
body.
Another question as to tho validity of
a law lias arisen in the hill providing for ;
the appointment of game commissioners I
in this state, it originally appropriated
money to pay the expenses of the com
mission, but the granger clement of tin
house defeated it, and the hi 11 passed
with tho appropriation eliminated. Tin
senate restored the appropriation, and
in the conference committee an agree- :
ment was reached by which #1,500 was
appropriated for the expenses, but the !
house defeated the con ferenco report.
Notwithstanding this failure to pass, it
was certified to the governor and has :
been signed by him.
Regardless of the fact that tho bill
was defeated in the legislature, it is now j
to every extent and purpose the law of ,
the state. No official charged with its ;
execution can question its validity, and
it is doubtful whether even the courts
would declare it invalid.
It lias been suggested that our long
presidential campaigns be reduced to a j
shorter period of political maneuvering,
and that, instead of calling the conven
tions in .June as generally of recent |
years, we should defer the nominations 1
until September—which would still af
ford from four to eight weeks for an ac- j
tive, earnest and vigorous campaign. I
This suggestion is surely wortli respect- j
ful consideration; for it lias many points !
in its favor. In the first place, as one j
of our contemporaries has declared, it
would reduce the expenses of the cam- |
paign, and consequently the opportuni
ties for political plunder; but its most
desirable feature, i> that it would relieve
us of the long-drawn-out and tedious !
strain of a June to November campaign.
It would be another evidence that we
Americans can do things quickly and
thoroughly, yet at the same time intelli
gently.—l'hildcl jthui ltccord.

IT STICKS TO SENATOR OOOKRELL.
(low u Defeat Proved a Blessing In Dis
guise and Laid the Foundations of Ills
Fortunes—Senator Cockrell's Views of
War Tactics.
[Copyright, 1805.]
"There are some people who affect to
sneer at luck," says Champ Clark, the fa
mous congressman from Missouri. "All
such should stroll over to the senate end of
the capitol some day and hold close com
munion for awhile with General Francis
Marion Cockrell, senior and perpetual sen
ator from Missouri, and discover what ho
thinks of it. lie knows or ought to know,
for of all the men who walk the streets of
Washington lie is tho luckiest. Twenty
four years u senator, with almost a cer
tainty of lidding down a curulo chair for
a quarter of a century more, if ho lives
that long, his lines have indeed been cast
in pleasant places, and his browsing has
been remarkably good in green pastures.
If Cockrell does network himself to death
—a thing by no means improbable—
Thomas 11. Denton, with his unequaled
HON. CIIAMP CLAIIK.
record of 30 years in tho senate of the
United States—or as ho pompously ex
pressed it 'six Roman lustrums'—won't bo
a marker to him.
"Luck! In 1871 ho wanted to be gov
ernor of Missouri and came very near hav
ing his heart's desire gratified in that ro
gard. Ike lacked only one-sixth of ono
vote of securing tho nomination, which
was equivalent to an election. Perhaps
that is tho closest shave on record for a
great office. The. history of tho governor
ship of Missouri is the queerest and most
inexplicable chapter in tho annals of Amer
ican politics. It is worthy of thoprofound
est consideration of tho whole school of
philosophers. In every other state in the
Union tho governorship is used as a step
ping stono to higher proferment—to tho
United States senate, tho cabinet, tho fed
eral supremo bench, foreign ministerships,
eihbassadorships, the vice presidency and
even the presidency itself. Rut in Missou
ri, by immemorial custom, tho governor
ship is considered as tho top round in tho
ladder, tho jumping off place, the ultima
Thulo. Missouri has had governors great
and small, governors good, bad and indif
ferent, but their fato is the same. Ovor
tho doors of tho stately gubernatorial man
sion at Jefferson City there ought to lie
inscribed this sentiment from Dante's 'ln
ferno:' 'AH hope abandon, yo who enter
J here.'
"Only ono governor lias really survived
it, and that was Trusten Polk in antebel
lum times, lie would not run for govern
or until all the party leaders had agreed
to make him United States senator, which
j they did. JIo pulled the party through,
and they kept their promise to him. 110
served as governor only 31 days. Tho his
tory of the governorship of Missouri has
always reminded mo of that tale in the
book of Job, where tho man of Uz and his
friends were feasting and a messenger
broke in upon their merriment with tho
growsome intelligence that there had boon
a great storm in which all tho sons of Job
and their retainers had boon killed, and ho
alono was left to tell tho tale.
"At any rate, Cockroll wanted to bo
governor and was balked in his ambition
by only a fraction of a vote, but a miss is
as good as a mile, so wo are informed by
some ancient proverb maker. He ought to
thank Cod every night for that lucky es
cape. Had ho succeeded he would in all
probability have had before him two years
in tho governor's ofllco and after that ob
livion. His defeat was a blessing in dis
guise and laid tho foundations of his for
tunes. It is passing strango what small
and seemingly trivial things determine tho
destinies of men and even of nations.
"By the accident of being the last man
! to embark on a steamboat after the affair
at Belmont, General Grant was started on
i the road to Appomattox and the White
House. By flaying Sir Robert Peel on tho
right when he announced his free trade
policy in the house of commons, Benjamin
Disraeli took the first step in that marvel
ous career which dazzled the world and
i which ended in the premiership and an
earldom. Becauso his uncontrollable
horse ran away and carried him straight
into the enemies' lines in some obscure
■ battle in south Asia, enabling him to cap
lure tho commanding general, Arthur
Vellesloy subsequently added Waterloo to
tho long lino of English victories, became
tho Iron I)ukoand sleeps among thostoriod
great in Westminster abbey. By reason of
tho fact that Ids pistol failed to fire on the
occasions when ho attempted suicide young
Robert Clivo concluded that God intended
him for great things and lived to creato
the British empire in India, to become a
peer of the realm and to write bis name in
characters of blood high upon tho roll of
English speaking captains.
"But to return to General Cockrcll.
During tiie campaign for the nomination
ho repeatedly declared that if Hardin, Col
man or anybody else defeated him no voice
would be lifted louder and no hut thrown
higher than his for his successful competi
tor. So when Charles 11. Hardin was
nominated and Cockrcll was culled on fc/r
a speech ho good naturedly referred to his
promise, and then and there, as the in
dictments say, threw his big white slouch
hut to tho lofty ceiling of the convention
hall and gavo a lusty rebel yell wldch
Itarted tho catfish in the Missouri rivor.
I'hat performance made him senator, and
ho state over had a bettor ono.
"It is said tho great King Cyrus knew
tho uuino of every soldier iu his vast AT
mles. Cockrt'll never forgets eitlior the
name or tho face of any person to whom ho
has been Introduced. This faculty is sim
ply invaluable to a public man and has
been of incalculable benefit to tho distin
guished Missouri sonator.
"Luck! Goto! Suppose General Cock
rell had defeated Hardin? Tho chances
are a thousand to one that he never would
have had the opportunity to prevent innu
merable raids upon tho federal treasury,
thereby saving untold millions to tho peo
ple. Ho ought to hunt up the delegato who
cast that fractional vote against him and
dress him in purple and fine linen tho rem
nant of his days.
"Some people say—among others that
eminent publicist, orator and journalist,
Henry Watterson —that Stonewall Jackson
was tho one Puritan soldier of our civil
war. They speak without knowledge.
Stonewall was a Puritan indeed, worthy
to have charged with mighty Oliver at
Noseby, Marston Moor and Dunbar, shout
ing, 'God with us!' but so was Francis
Marion Cockrell. Ho fought and prayed
and prayed and fought, and it remains to
this day a mooted question whether ho
fought moro than ho prayed or prayed
more than he fought. If Jackson was tho
superintendent of a Sunday school at Lex
ington, Vn., Cockrell was engaged in tho
same way at Warrensburg, Mo. He started
in as a private in April, 18(31; ho surren
dered as a major general during tho very
last days of tho war. Ho was a volunteer
without military training} and that fact
ox necessitate deprived him of any part icu
lar favor in the Confederate war depart
ment, where the delusion prevailed that
no man could bo a great soldier unless ho
had graduated from West Point, which de
lusion seems to have prevailed also in tho
federal war office. Nevertheless events ap
pear to indicnto that, even with this han
dicap, had the war lasted four years longer
General Cockrell would liavo risen to the
highest command.
"Ho fought. That mode his soldiers lovo
him, and that is ono thing which makes
tho people of Missouri lovo him. Ho is
just about as popular with tho ex-Union
soldiers among his constituents as with
those who followed tho stars and bars.
"General Cockrell, being a voluntoer,
evolved some original theories on war
which are calculated to stun tho typical
martinets. For Instance, after tho first
battle in which he fought, green as ho was
in things martial, ho would nover permit
an army engineer to select Ids lino of bat
tle for Idm. lie said that as tlio duty of
defending tho line devolved on him ho
knew better than any engineer what was a
defensible lino and what was not. This
may liavo seemed presumptuous in a raw
recruit, but his military history furnishes
his justification.
"Another thing that he sticks to to this
day, and which will give tho souls of tho
professionals a rude shock, is that, tho most
ollectivo weapon with which infantry can
be armed is a double barreled shotgun. Ho
claims that it will discount all tho new
fangled riflqs ever inado. His logic runs as
follows, and to a civilian appears absolute
ly convincing: 'One wounded man on tho
battlefield is ever so much moro trouble
than so inahy dead men. Tho double bar
reled shotgun is unequaled as a producer
of wounded men; therefore it is the best
thing to arm troops with.'
"Asa clincher ho states that In a certain
battle in which ho was engaged when he
was a colonel two companies of his regi
ment were armed with double barreled
shotguns, the other eight with Enfield
rlfies. and that when the lighting was over
thero were more dead and wounded men in
front of tho two companies with shotguns
than in front of the eight urmcd with
rifles. If seeing is believing, then any ra
tional being not under 'the tyranny of
preconceived opinions' ought to be con
vinced by General Cockrcll's reasoning."

llotanical Freaks.
Imitative forms in botany aro not at all
rare, but somo of thorn are most unique in
form and markings. Striking Imitative
forms and uncommon resemblances are by
no means rare among vegetables. In somo
! cases these curiosities belong to regular
families of vegetables, and tho seeds there
| from will reproduce like wonders. In the
l majority of cases, however, they are acci
dental freaks. Avlceuna relates the Htory
of a Jew who had a mandrake root which
I had a human head and the body and legs
of a barnyard fowl. In 1(328 a turnip was
| pulled from a garden in tho village of
; NVeidan, Germany, which had a human
face on a bulb near the top of the ground.
It also had shoulders, body and arms, but
the remainder forked into numerous roots
having no rosemblanco to human or any
other kind of legs. In 183)2] Mr. John A.
lloguoof Holcomb, this state, sent Tho Re
| public a radish which was in tho exact
shape of a human hand, and a similar ono
was found by Charles Monroe of Colum
j bus, Ga., the same year.
Tho "maelto velenito," a species of
South American tomato, always grows flvo

blance to the human hand. In tho same
country a species of squash, called "melo

strangers are willing to swear that they
can "hear the thing grunt."—St. Louis

Tale of a Coat.
Hero is the story of tho travels of a coat.
Tho garment is a mackintosh of a bright
sand color. It was bought several months
ago, and at the time tho money paid for it
was a considerable sum to the young clerk
who owned it. It wore dirty, however,
after a few months, and ho had it cleaned,
and the tailor added to it cuffs and a col
lar of bright blue velvet. Soon afterward
ho sat down to a game of poker. He lost
his money and sold the coat on credit to a
fellow clerk for #4. Tlio latter grew hard
up a few weeks later and sold the coat to
tho office boy for #I.BO cash and an I. O.
U. for #4.20. He spent the #I.BO and still
owed #4 for the coat. Ono night ho played
poker with tho original owner and won
#2.45. Then he owed #1.55 for the mack
intosh. The office boy still owed him #4.20.
Tho latter did not appear for work ono
bright morning, and a few days later it
was rumored that he had gono to Philadel
phia with tho coat. Now tho clerk who
owned it secondhand is trying to figure
up whethor he is a gainer or a loser.—Syr
acuse Post.
The Negligee Shirt.
"The evolution of the ncgligco shirt,"
says the Philadelphia Record, "is a re
markable bit of history. Years ago thoy
indeed deserved their name. When first in
troduced, thoy were designed solely for out
ing purposes and were made of flannel.
The only way in which they could be put
on or taken off was by lacing and unlac
ing a sort of shoestring affair down tho
front. Then buttons were substituted,
and finally they were made of calico, chev
iot and madras instead of flannel. With
each step in tho lino of ornamentation they
deteriorated in comfort, until now the so
•ailed negligee shirt is really loss comfort
•blo and moro stiff looking thau the ordi
nary white ono."
TEN-MINUTE EXERCISES.
If Taken Fvery I>y They Make Women
Look Truly Renutlfal.
Everything in a woman's life should
be done temperately, especially the
wearing of corsets. This eternal lec
turing upon the evils of corset-wearing
is all folly; to condemn tight lacing is
another thing, but the loose, wide
made corset is to be commended.
Of course all exercise should be taken
with the waist perfectly free, and when
vigorous out-of-door sports are indulged
in no stay should be worn; but when in
the street or at home or at social func
tions the corset worn sensibly is a ne
cessity of all women who claim any de
gree of that intangible something called
style.
The rules for health and beauty are
really very simple. Rise a half-hour
before breakfast, open the window,
whavever the weather or season, and
SUPPLING TIIE WAIST.
go briskly through the ordinary calis
thenic exercises with the arms rind legs
and body for ten minutes—no longer,
for the half-hour of vigorous exercise
which some advocate is trying to the
nerves and taxes a woman's strength
altogether too much; even five minutes
may be found sufficient day after day.
The motions should be made evenly,
firmly and with sufficient rapidity to
get up a pleasant warmth.
The lungs should be filled through
the nose with fresh air from the win
dow and emptied through the mouth
with a quick ejection. This should be
clone four or five times. Then the po
sition should be taken for the exercises
—legs together, hands on the hips and
chin held up. Then a rotation of tho
body as in the first illustration. This
tends to make the waist slim and mo
bile, and the muscles may be felt al
ternately stretching and relaxing un
der the hands as the motion is de
scribed.
The second sketch illustrates the
exercise for widening the chest, in
creasing its bust and strengthening and
knitting the spinal muscles generally.
The other exercises to be taken are
made according to the well-known rou
tine, hands from shoulder up, ten times,
then down, then from the shoulder
straight out in front the same number
of times. All these should be done
briskly.
After the exercise a cold sponge bath
should be taken, accompanied by vigor
ous rubbing, and every other week a
cupful of common salt should be
thrown into the water each day, and
when this is used it must be remem
bered that soap cannot be used, as the
two d<s not agree.
After dressing slowly a breakfast
should be eaten of fresh fruit, grain
foods and eggs or chops, according to
one's taste.
At night, just before retiring, the
same exercise should be gone through
and a sponge wet with alcohol rubbed
over the body; bathing the feet in
warm, almost hot, water is soothing
and healthy also, as it helps one to
sleep soundly and sweetly.
To give a woman an erect and beauti
ful figure there is no surer way than to

itand with the hands on the hips as
often as possible, with the abdomen in
and the chest thrown well out. When
one is at home it is easy to stand in this
way for several minutes at a time or to
walk about the house so. It works
like magic, too, for giving one a flue
carriage.
It is perhaps unnecessary to add that
all the walking in the open air one can
possibly do, uuless it is in the hot sun,
serves to add to one's health and
beauty, and a woman should be out of
doors all that she possibly can, as noth
ing brings the bloom into her checks
so quickly or so beautifully as God's
pure air and sunshine.—Marie Jourcan,
in Chicago lleeord.
Krop All Food Covered.
Every article of food should be kept
covered until it appears on the table.
Milk and butter should be kept in air
tight covered vessels. They take up
every odor flying in the air, ami aro
positively harmful to the stomach after
standing uncovered for an hour or two.
Not only odors, but the animalcule
that fill the air are attracted to milk
and butter. Uncovered jelly is a men
ace to family health, yet in two-thirds
of the pantries in the city will be found
half-used dishes of jelly standing un
covered.—Good Housekeeping.
A Now Fe in lii| ne Industry.
Several young women in London have
started a novel and sensible dressmak
ing establishment. They take last sea
son's dresses and make them over in the
prevailing fashion. No entirely new
dresses are made, and the charges are
reasonable. They should succeed, for
the world is full of nice people who do
not often buy a completely new dress,
and to those who sometimes have
dresses given them by their richer sis
ters such a place would prove a decided
benefit.— Queen.
