FREELAND, PA.. JANUARY 25, 1897.
California has developed a new gold
field in the Mojave desert California
beautifully observes the eternal fitness
sf things by growing wheat on her
arable lands and locating her gold
niinoe only where thoy will not be in
the way of agriculture.
Much of the criticism of the Kansas
press upon Senator Peffer appears to
be based upon the fact that he was
earning only sl2 a week editing the
-Kansas Farmer prior to his election to
the Senate. He ought not to lw blamed
for that. Any man under those circum
stances is to be commended for getting
a now job if ho can.
An eminent Canadian who recently
visited in London declared that Groat
Britain will sooner of later have to
annex the United States as a means of
keeping the peace. If that Canadian
prophet and the fool killer ever meet
they will have to find something to ar
bitrate or there will be a sudden in
crease in the mortality rate.
Senator Allen expects his investigat
ing committee to take very nearly a
solid year in ascertaining "to what ex
tent. money was used in promoting the
nominations or In influencing the
choice of Presidential Electors" in the
late campaign. It is a large assign
ment, however, and will take a great
deal of time to cover it thoroughly.
Such a demand for American cotton
has sprung up iu Japan and China
that it pays to ship the product from
the cotton States all the way to San
Francisco by rail, and there put ir on
board vessels for its destination. If.
with this handicap, American cotton
can hold its own against the product of
Egypt and India in the Oriental mar
ket, it must be of superior quality in
deed.
Figruea are impressive things, es
pecially wlion they are on the right
side. The statement that the exports
of this country for October and No
vember amounted to $222,000,000.
which would make tho total for the
year, if kept up at the same rate, sl.-
380,000,000, is magnificent, and the in
formation that the exports for Novem
ber alone show a balance of $0 ( J,038.-
SBS over the imports is very gratifying.
This is a great country and It does
business on a largo scale.
Kansas is preparing to send a train
load of provisions to the destitute of
Oh lea go and Now York. At the same
time Kansas Is raising a protest
against the ''dumping" of New York
pauper children upon hor soil, n prac
tice which, she says, has gone beyond
the limits of both charity and forbear
ance. Kansas has a surplus of corn
and New York of pauper children, and.
as each pays the freight on its pro
duct. ir would seem most economical
for Kansas to keep its corn ai home to
feed the children sent to it. but there
are other considerations which have
doubtless convinced the Sunflower
State in taking the action it has.
It would not be surprising if our j
Government should hare trouble in re-1
viring reciprocity relations with other i
countries, after the cavalier mauuor in |
which the former agreements for that
purpose were broken off by Congress. {
but so many advantages can be shown
to accrue to both sides in these ar
rangements that it is probable most, if
not all, of the countries with whom it I
is desirable to establish them will con- j
sent to do so, especially if the proposal j
to make the treaties terminable only I
after two years' notice, and then by j
mutual consent, shall he incorporated
in thoni. Reciprocity with the South j
American States is especially ilesir- j
aide and can probably be established j
by fair and liberal Scaling with them. J
As to Kleptomania.
Speaking of tlic claim that klepto
mania is a "nervoiw disease," which,
Vary curiouoly, according to legal And
madical practice, seeum to attack only
wealthy people, the I/ondon Chronicle
says: "Our prison records are fuH of
cases of people whose offenses are clear
ly dua to mere aberration, but who havs
wo such consideration from her majes
ty's judge* or from t.he home secretary
a* Mrs. Castle Jias received. We hare
before ue the story of a poor man who,
at 60, began to steal looking-glasses.
He stole no tiling but Jooklng-glusse*,
and he stole them continuously. lie
spent several years in prison for ep
srate offenses of thU character, and
finally died in prison at the uge of 05.
Of course, this man's caoe wn not con
sidered a* Mrs. Castle's was considered
—that is, in relation to the prisoner's
mind as well as with reference to the
actual offense."
The city fathers of Louisville, Ivy.,
hav# some well-defined notions a* re
gards the proper means of maintaining
a cleanly cJty. An ordinance has been
introduced providing that if any por
son filial 1 apit or expectorate or cast,
throw or deposit upon any public aide
walk for pedestrians, or in or upon any
corridor, vestibule or stairway, or in
any public room or in any public build
ing, in the city of Louisville, uuy spittle,
tobacco juice, refuse tobacco, sputum
of any emanation of secretion of the
bead, throat, lungs or mouth, he shall
l>e guilty of a misdemeanor and shall
be fined not less than one dollar nor
mora than five dollars for each offense.
Such an ordinance should be in force
in every town aiud city in the land.
A football game at Osgood, Ind., the
other day was broken up by the sudden
appearance upon the field of a number
of skunks. Tho first half of the game
was ended, when some boys just out
side of the line, in the edge of the wood,
drove a puck of skunks out of a hollow
log. They ran through tho field in all
directions, two of them getting mixed
up with boys in a ecrimmage. The
players weakened in their work, and
finally were forced to give up the game.
Several hundred spectators were pres
ent, a large number of whom were vie
iiinaof the skunks. Now we know what
skuuks are good for.
Mrs. Daataria B. Andre, of New Lon
don, Conn., who is now in her seventy
eighth year, was one of a party who
went out after mackerel in the sound
tho other day. Mi's. Andre did not go us
n spectator, but took un active part in
the fishing operations, and she suc
ceeded in landing 32 line fish, which
was more than any other member of the
party secured. Mrs. Andre is, probably,
the oldest New London lady who ha*
ventured out on such an expedition this
year, but she la still hale and hearty,
and bids fair to be able to catoh fish for
years to come.
There are some mammoith rattlers in
Texas, Judging from the report that
it took two 48-pound Backs of men!
to stuff the skin of a rattlesnake killed
by Thomas Her tag, of Laurel, recently.
It was ten feet two and three-quarter
inches long and had 18 rattles. A ten
foot snake with only 18 rattles and ca
pacity for 90 pounds of meal in it*
hide? Well, somewhat of a snake, sure
ly. The snake editor who gave that,
story out is onto his job.
Helen lvcllnr, tho deaf, dumb and
blind girl student at the RedclilTe col
lege, has added to her other accomplish
ments that of riding a bicycle. This
remarkable girl was seen the other day
seated on the hind scat of a tandem,
riding with a friend on Massachusetts
avenue, Cambridge, near the college.
The friend guide* the machine, while
Miffs Kellar does her share of the pro
pelling. She rides gracefully and evi
dently highly enjoys it.
H minted with the idea that he had
oisly a short time to live, Stephen Lang
ford, a wealthy miser of White Ilall,
near Richmond, Ky., sent for his
nephew, W. A. Langford, and made him
n present of $5,000 in cash and a fine
liluc grass farm, his idea being to avoid
possible litigation after his death. Some
time ago the old gentleman had his
coffin made and a tombstone prepared,
and now says lie is ready for the deatli
angel's summons.
A Lebanon (Ind.) woman weighing
550 pounds eloped the other day with
100 pounds of hired man, but it is liard
ly probable that he followed the tra
ditional method of sliding down the
rainwater spout with the fair heroine
in his arms. As the lone fisherman
uould ejaculate: "Now wouldn't that
pull your cork under!"
At Rome City, Ind., n Pittsburgh frav
liiug man became acquainted with a
girl on Monday, wired her an offer of
marriage on the following Wednesday,
was accepted by return dispatch, and
the marriage took place on Thursday.
Quick work, but will it last? ...
A HERO.
He rover bucked the center
On tho gory, ghastly field;
lie never grasped a bully's throat
And choked him till he "squealed;"
He never entered a balloon
To navigate the ulr;
Me never shot a tiger or
Explored a leopard's lair.
He never plunged Into the flood
To save a drowning maid;
He never climbed a snow-clad peak
Or faced a flashing blade;
lie never rescued from the flames
A gasping little child;
He never saved a thousand lives
From an engine running wild.
He never faced the cannon's mouth,
Oh heard grim war's alarm;
He never closed his eyes and rushed
Unheedlngly to harm;
He never clasped a maiden fair
. And held her foes at bay;
He never risked his life to stop
A frightful runaway.
But, though the skies be dark above
And fortune seems to frown-
Though everything appears to have
Combined to keep him down-
He plods along his weary way
With hope still In his breast;
He never murmurs, but la Just
Content to do his best.
—Cleveland Leader.
A CURIOUS COUPLE.
The village of II is one of the
quaintest little places imaginable. It
is so small, and so out of the way, thai
you would never find it, except by ac
cident. Indeed, it stands apart iu some
fields, absolutely concealed in a hol
low, and is only approached ou one
side by a footpath (which iu the winter
is usually under water), on another by
a cart track of the rudest and roughest
description. When you do arrive there,
the first object to strike you is the
church.
There is something pleasing, some
thing grateful to the eye in this gray,
plain, disproportioned little structure.
It seems to lit into its surroundings
admirably; the farmyard, the cottages,
the brook flowing just below (they
call it "the river" there, where every
thing is on so reduced a scale), the ever
present geese and sheep and cattle,
and the perfect seclusion of surround
ing pastures. Nothing but green which
ever way you look. No houses (except
the quaint little cluster round the
church), 110 distant view; everything
shut in by tho slopes which skill the
valley; a complete environment of
everlasting fields.
I have seen many churchyards. This
one, lying begirt 011 all sides by the
farm homestead, tiny,indifferently kept,
shaded by ma 113' cypresses and weeping
ash, where scarcely once a year, per
haps, is tho slumbering soil disturbed
for a new grave, and where everything
spciiks of dreamy restfulncss, this
churchyard of It is the spot in which
I myself would soonest choose to lie.
One 1 knew who now reposes there—
a former rector; the kindest, heartiest,
tenderest, most beloved of pastors.
Those who have since died in It
have all wished to be laid near him.
And now around him sleeps a. little
cluster of his horny-handed friends. A
happy family. The whole churchyard
is peaceful. But in that especial corner
the peacefulness seems always most
profound.
It was this rector's nephew and suc
cessor—for II has been a family liv
ing any time this two centuries past —
to whom I am indebted for the follow
ing story. He often strolled out with
me when I went to paint, and, while
smoking innumerable pipes, told me
many interesting local yarns. This one,
however, the facts of which bod late
ly come under his own experience, quite
overtopped all the others in striking
ness and peculiarity. Here it is, sub
stantially in my informant's words:
"You sco that cottage over there?"
he suid, pointing to a dismantled hovel
in the corner of the field where 1 had
pitched iny canvas.
I nodded.
"A most remarkable history is at
tached to it," he went on. "Not a
legend, but a fact. Of this, 1 can as
sure you, because I myself had a hand
in finding it out. Itcenters round a cer
tain couple who lived there —the most
extraordinary old folk that 1 ever came
across. 1 should like you to have seen
them. I think you would have admitted
them to be the ugliest pair in Eng
land, as they certainly were the most
close and unfriendly. During the 16
years that they lived in that cottage,
they never once asked a neighbor in
side."
"Umph! Hermits, indeed," I ob
served.
"Absolute hermits. There was, how
ever, some slight excuse for their es
chewing all outside compjuiy. Each su f
fcred from a severe physical infirmity.
The woman was nearly stone deaf; the
man was dumb. When, they first cnunc
here —18 years ago now, I think—m,\
untcio, who, as you know, was then rec
tor, tried to find out what lie could
about them. He only learned a little,
and that little was nothing out of the
way. It transpired that the man was
an ex-sailorof tho royal navy, who had
lost his speech after a severe attack of
yellow fever in tho West Indies. lie
was now entitled to a pension, which
he drew half yearly, and which my
uncle only knew about by the fact that
the old fellow had to come to him peri
odically to get his papers signed. Tho
woman was his sister, so she gave the
neighbors to understand, and so also
might have been inferred from a certain
family likeness which was noticeable
beftween them. She was a most ill-fti
vored hag; shrivelled, unkempt, and
dirty beyond description. Although
she then (must have been nearer 70 than
CO, her long, touzled hair was still as
black us a coal, und hung in hideous
Untidiness about lifrr hawk-like face,
widch, with its dark eyes, and its hooked
proboscis,wasmost uncommonly forbid
ding. The jioar people all pronounced
her n witch; and, for that reason, gave
,her a wide berth. Probably the womau
purposely encouraged the idea. For
her great aim and object was, evidently,
to be left alone.
'Although heir brothers pension,
| h mounting 'to about Is. lid a dny, was
J rimple to keep two old folks decantly,
j and even comfortably, in that cheapest
j of neighborhoods, these two always
| gave the impression of being half
starved, and 1 do not. believe that either
of them purchased a new article of
clothing the whole time they lived in
H From this people bega.n to infer
t hat they were misers, and as time went
on many things happened to strengthen
the inference. All along they had dis
covered the greatest anxiety and ap
prehension when anyone tried to gain
access to their hovel. Indeed, my uncle
hns often told me that the expression of
Ihe old peoples face.q "When he called
there, and one or other of them peered
round the chained door at 'him, was
really quite comical In its suspicious
trepidation; and the older they grew,
the mora pronounced did their precau
tions to prevent outsiders entering be
lome.
"At first they had sometimes ventured
to lock up their house and moke an ex
cursion together into F (lie
named the adjoining market town,
which I will not further particularize.)
"But by and by they gave up such reck
lessness entirely, and whenever one of
them went out, the other always re
mained on guard at home. The precau
tion was quite necessary. All the poor
in the neighborhood were by this Bane
fully convinced that there was some
thing 'unked' about them; and no one
in 11 , or for miles round, would
have willingly crossed their threshold,
even if the door had been left open.
But these old misers were altogether
100 suspicious to reason, and seemed
to live in an ever-increasing fear of
having their privacy invaded.
"My uncle (us he himself told me
shortly before bis death) was greatly
exercised about his two strange par
ishioners. Many rectors would have
considered themselves absolved of a.ll
obligations toward people who not
merely never attended church, but re
fused even to admit their clergyman
into their house when he called. But
that was not my uncle's way. Every
poor man who lived in his parish lie
held to be under his pastoral protection,
and he felt himself bound to look after
his interests. In regard to these two
old misers, however, it was difficult to
know what was the kindest course. To
let them live 011 in their present, half
starved condition, and in that fearfully
insanitary hovel, undisturbed, seemed
no real kindness. And yet he was loath
to set the parish or the sanitary officer
upon their track. He held very strong
ly to the opinion that an Englishman's
house—even if it be nothing better than
a pig sty—is his castle; and, in his heart,
by 110 means approved of the wide com
pulsory power then lately given to the
local authorities.
"Besides, after all, what could such
authorities do? Compel them 1o evacu
ate their miserable shanty, 110 doubt.
Hut the old people would then simply
change their local habitation, not their
mode of life. And as regards sturving
themselves, not all the boards of guard
ians in Somerset could make people eat
who did not choose to do so. It was pos
sible, indeed, that they might be
medically found of unsound mind; and,
tn that case, they could be removed to
the workhouse infirmary or the county
Of.ylum. But even supposing that feasi
ble, it was a course from wbich my un
cle shrank. And the outcome of it nil
was that he let things remain in statu
quo.
"When 1 succeeded him here, I went
to call, now and then, on the old peo
ple; meeting, however, with the some
treatment that my uncle had always
experienced. Sometimes, they would
not open the door at all; at others, they
did so with the chain up, and conversed
with me through a narrow aperture. 111
reply to my inquiries whether I could do
anything, or give them any assistance,
I always had a negative returned: until
at last 1 gave up trying to make head
way in so hopeless a direction, and left
the two hermits pretty much to them
selves.
"The man came to nie regularly every
half year to get his pension papers
signed; and I took advantage of these
opportunities to give him some friendly
advice, and to remonstrate with liini
011 his folly in starving himself and
wearing such inadequate clothing in
the coldest weather. At first I had mode
him a present of some old coats, trousers
and flannel shirts. But I soon gave up
that, for he never wore them; and 1
formed the impression that he had prob
ably converted them into cash. In
fact, I asked him one day what he had
done with them all. lie only looked cun
ning, nffected stupidity, and made some
unintelligible signs. Despite his dumb
ness, he could make me understand
things very well when he liked—es
pecially anything connected with his
pension papers. It was only when he
did not wish to make himself under
stood that his signs had 110 meaning in
them.
"In this matter of coming to have his
his papers signed, he was, as I have&nid,
always absolutely punctual. 011 March
£5 and September 29 he appeared a!
the rectory as regularly as clockwork,
taking me on the way to F , where
lie had to present his papers at the
post office. I always looked for him
on the morning of those days, and al
ways took tho precaution to have my
study windows wide open. The old
man and water had long been mutual
strangers, and the atmosphere which
attended liini was, to say the least,
rather oppressive. When he was gone;
1 added io my disinfectant precau
tions with a strong pipe; and I can as
sure von that the foulest pipe in my rack
had to be called into requisition. A
sort of homoeopathy, you see. How
over, this is by the way.
"He was always, ns 1 have said,
punctual in coming. And when one
Michaelmas day—it was just two years
ago now—came and went without his
putting in an appearance, I at o-nce
remarked it as n very noticeable cir
cumstance. The next day I expecteTl
Mm—with opened windows— and the
next, and the next; but he did not turn
up. At length, after waiting a week,
1 felt sure that he must be ill, and went
over to the shanty to inquire.
"I hammered at the door. Nobody
answered. I hammered louder and
louder, with the same result. In the
end, as a last resort, I tried it. To my
surprise, it was unfastened. I pushed
it open and went in.
"I cannot tell you what my feelings
were as I entered that miserable sty.
A more dismal, forlorn, and withal
filthy hovel has surely never been in
habited by human beings. There was
scarcely any furniture. The walls were
black and covered with cobwebs, and
simply alive with creeping insects; and
the lloor—well, I won't attempt to de
scribe it. I think you could cut the at
mosphere with u knife, so thick and
foul it was; and fetid, oh, insufferably
fetid. It nearly poisoned me, and my
first impulse was to beat u hasty re
treat into the open. Ilut a low moan
from the corner attracted me. 1 looked;
and there 1 saw a sight at once loath
fronie and pitiable.
"Crouching aguinst the wull, upon the
dump and moldy floor, was a figure cov
ered with au old sack. 1 went nearer.
At first I could not see which of the
two it was. But, on looking more closely,
I made it out to be the old woman. She
was almost naked, except for the cov
ering of the sack; and one of her yel
low arms, which lay exposed, looked
unspeakably lean and shrheled and
weird. I also noted another point. The
tangled black hair, wbich had always
struck me so about her, was now be-
Iruycd iks not being her own. It was u
wig; half on and half off ut that mo
ment, giving her a fearfully grotesque
appearance, und clearly revealing her
bald pate, scantily fringed with a few
wld spa of gray hair, beneath.
"'What is the matter? Are you ill?'
I asked, bending down, and speaking
in a loud, clear voice; for I knew her
to be almost stone deaf.
"She stared at me with dazed, sus
picious eyes, and said nothing; only
moaning again.
"'Arc you ill?' I repeated.
"Another moan.
" 'Where is your brother?' I shouted.
'Has lie left.you alone?'
"Sho looked hard at me. I could see
in her restless black eyes that this time
sho had caught the purport of iny ques
tion.
" 'Bu'other Tom?' she muttered.
" 'Yes!' I loured. 'Where is he?'
"She looked at me very cunningly.
Her eyes seemed to woke up and sparkle
with aji almost unnatural brightness.
" 'Don't you know?' she gasped.
"I shook my head.
"'Well, you shall hear,' she went on.
'l'm just going the same way myself,
and it's no nse keeping secrets any
longer. lie's dead.'
" 'Dead!' I excluimed, supposing that
heir wits were wandering, for 1 had
seen him at his hovel door less than a
fortnight since. 'When did he die?'
"She gave a low chuckle.
" 'Fifteen year ago.'
"Now, of course, I saiw that she was
raving. Heir hawk-like eyes, fixed on
my face in a most forbidding leer, at
once read my thoughts.
" 'No, I ain't mad. It's the truth. He
died 15 year ago, and 1 buried him my
self under yonder hearthstone. Bet
them to dig it up, and you'll find his
bones.*
"As she spake, the. hug clutched 1113
sleeve and half raised herself by a su
preme effort-. IIr face wore a fiendish
ly exultant grin. Her whole expression
was grotesque, and repulsive. She
leered into my face with a look that 1
can never forget.
"'Yes, yes,' she said. 'All true—all
true. I hid it, and no one knew. And,'
with u hideous chuckle, 'l've dror'd
pension myself for 15year!' "
"And were hear brother's bones found
there?" I asked the rector, in the course
of <1 subsequent conversation on the
subject.
"Yes. He bud been buried scarcely
a couple of feet below the surface. And
in n. hole in tho chimney we found the
fndscr's savings—more thun J.'51)0 in
gold and notes. It was paid over to the
government, in return for the 15 yours*
pension out of wthieh they had been
ch exited."
"It was a wonder that 110 one found
out the woman's dual personality."
"It was, indeed. But uo one dreamed
of suspecting. And the woman must
have worked it very cunningly. The dif
fere nee in her look with and without
the black wig was quite remarkable.
Then her brother's dumbness was a
feature ill her favor—llo chance of be
Ing found out by the voice. Of course,
to anyone who had the smallest sus
picion, tho whole thing would soon have
revealed iteclf as plain as a. pikestaff.
But no suspicion existing, I do not think
that. the real explanation was likely to
cross anyone's mind, and, as a matter
of fn-ct, it never did."—London Truth.
lint* nn! Veils.
In millinery toques are daily gaining
in favor, and also the white felt liats
with a black ribbon simply, or with the
addition of a few cock's feathers, up
right or drooping. The square and
"jam pot" crowns are vying with the
round, and the boat-shape with the
lailor. For bridesmaids the whole felt,
so-called picture lints, with long os J
trich feathers, will be among the most
popular. The fashion, coming to in
from the French, of tilting the wide
brimmed bats over She eyes and turn
ing them up very much at the back,
with flowers, suits many faces well, but
not all. The veils worn with these hats
are long and loosely gathered up,nearly

ivseif however all run down with Dys
epsia. I doctored and doctored, but I
rrew worse. I suffered misery night and
ay, for fully two years. My c'ase was

FAVORITE REMEDY

had a moment's discomfort since. To
day there isn't a healthier man and my I
appetito is grand."
