FREELAND, FERRUARY 1. 1897.
Give the Measure Fair l'lay.
From the Ha/.leton Sentinel.
When the county seat newspapers
attack the new county project and dis
tort facts or make use of flimsy state
ments there is some excuse in the. fact
that they are influenced by petty or
selfish motives, hut when a great papei
like the Philadelphia Pre** resorts to
that sort of thing it is not surprising
that readers pause and (picstion tin
purpose. It cannot be that the Pre**
employs writers who are ignorant of
subjects treated editorally. When sue!,
statements are made seriously, as was
the case the other day, the questioi
arises, why does the Pre** risk putting
itself in a ridiculous position in order t<
combat a just claim—the erection of ;t
new county out of this isolated com
m unity?
For instance, the Press suggests that
criminal court he hold here, and in tha
way meet the ends of justice and tin
claims of inconvenience. Now whib
this suggestion sounds well enough, how
would it work is a question not dillicult
to answer. It is entirely out of reason
How could prisoners he transported
from Wilkcsbarre to Ila/.loton? Wouh:
we build special cars, iron hound, hat
red and manned? What would we d
for a court house? *jWould we build ;
jail of our own? Would we erect a coin
house and supply a corps of officials am
attaches?
It is equivalent to granting that :i
new county 'is indispensable, When ii
is understood that this district fur
nishes one-half of the criminal and civil
cases coming before the Luzerne courts,
it is just as fair to ask for a transfei
of tliejcounty seals, and give Wilkes
barre the-odd days which the court can
spare.
It would he entirely impracticable to
hohLcourt here us suggested. It is ab
surd to think so, and when such advanc
ed journals as the Pre** contemplate ii
seriously, one is prompted to wonder
where sensible men arc drifting to.
There may be counties where court ses
sions are divided, but the conditions are
no comparison with those obtaining here,
it must be remembered that this is the
third largest county in the state, and its
business and importance are relatively
great.
The claim that the proposed act is un
constitutional is equally dishonest and
unfair. It is only necessary to point t<
Lackawanna county to linda substan
tation of the justice of the bill. The
measure is precisely the same. The
contentions were similar in that case
However, the supreme court decided
that It was constitutional. In the con
troller hill the conditions were further
endorsed by the supremo court. Such
facts should not'be overlooked by either
the Press or the governor, who has ex
pressed a doubt though he did not con
demn entirely on this score. Attorney
General McCormick understands this,
it was brought forcibly to his attention
by Judge* Harding at the hearing last
year in ilarrisburg. The situation to
him was then very embarrassing, but it
was not pushed to extremes by friends
of the bill.
The points in favor of a division are
indisputable. The fact of the matter
is. Wilkcsbarre will yet be begging for
the change if the present agitators are
not successful. They were the lirst, to
ask for a change of this kind. Rut as
soon as the lower end people took it
up, the prcversc nature was asserted and
developed opposition. Such is the ease
today, it is earnestly hoped that the
Philadelphia Press will appreciate the
situation and give the measure the bone
lit of its influences—or if not this, deal
with the matter in a spirit of fairness j
at least.

HARRISBURG LETTER.
1 | ilarrisburg, Pa.. January :.'s. 1897.
Due of the sensations in the legisla
ture was the resignation of Senator
Boies Penrose. The reason lie resigns
at this time is that lie is assured that
there will be a special session of con
gress and in order to save a special
election for his successor, ho resigns
now. so that a new man can be elected
at the February election. Israel W.
Durham, the Quay leader, is likely to be
Mr. Penrose's successor. To give a
complete, list of the bills introduced
would take several columns of this
paper. I will try from week to week to
, give you a fair account of the hills that
i are the most important and likely to
pass.
In the senate these were presented:
An act authorizing the transfer of liquor
license during vacation: an act to vali
date the Indebtedness of any borough;
in act to prevent fraud in the sale of
trans-oceanic passage receipts, orders or
tickets and for other purposes; an act
amending the state board of health act.
This act increases the salary of the
secretary to #:*,ooo per year, and em
powers the hoard from time to time to
engage suitable persons to render special
sanitary service.
In the house Representative Seyfert,
of Lancaster, offered a bill prohibiting
foot ball and lixes a penalty of not less
than .JlO nor more than slot): Mr. Ham
mond, of Westmoreland, asks Tor the
minimum school term to be seven
months; Mr. Smith, of Bedford, in a bill,
requires the payment of ? per cent in
terest oil state deposits.
Senator I'oyle. of Schuylkill, is after
the Pullman Car Company and similar
corporations. 11 • has a bill ready for
presentation which will set a license fee
of 8100 on each buffet and dining car in
which liquor is sold while passing
through the state. As it is now these
corporations pay nothing. They main
tain a bar in the strict sense of the
word. This bill will be vigorously op
posed. and it is doubtful if Senator Coy le
can muster strength enough to have it
passed.
Another bill, which will he hacked by
the united trolley corporations of the
state, will ask for a law which will de
prive poor people from bringing suits
against these corporations, in case of
accidents. Tim bill will require the
plaintiff to Ale a bond suflicicnt to cover
the possible cost likely to be incurred in
the prosecution of such eases, so as to
indemnify the commonwealth against
'ossos should the case fail.
Representative Heagy. of Dauphin,
presented a hill appropriating s.'ioc.oou
for a new penitentiary to be located at
r near Ilarrisburg. The institution is
to bo known as the "middle" penitenti
ary. Representative Hosack. of Alle
gheny, asks for a law on bicycle paths
floug the public roads to he maintained
by the county. Mr. Carson, of Frank
lin, in an act, prohibits policemen or
constables from accepting any fee other
than their salary except as public re
ward and mileage. Dr. Martin wants
minors prohibited from visiting saloons
or ten pin alleys. Another represents- ,
live wants February 12 (Lincoln's birth
day). made a legal holiday. An act lias ;
been presented in the senate forbidding 1
the publication of the names of persons,
charged with the commission of crime,
until convicted.
The Pennsylvania State Editorial As
sociation held an important and largely
it tended session in this city. In the
evening a public mooting was held in
the hall of the house, at which Colonel
\. K. McClure, of Philadelphia, was the
principal speaker. He very plainly
showed the defects in the present act.
and illustrated how the editors and pub- i
lisliors were unjustly treated under the
existing law. The principal feature of
the amendment proposed is to make the
author of a libel responsible and not the
newspaper publisher.
While this Quay reform legislature is ;
at work it might remedy some of the j
evils existing for many years in the ;
shape of exorbitant salaries paid for j
subordinate positions in the legislature.

pages have been added to the list in the
house and in all forty persons have been
made clerks to committees and given
other good paying positions in the house
and senate, whose names were not made
public. They will get their pay just the

Take a Check and Get it Cuslied.
A ta 11 anil handsome nut 11, with a
lulot voice and pleasant smile, en
lercd the Bergen Street Police Sta
tion. in Brooklyn, with Detective For
ney, of the New York force. Ho
i seemed pleased to meet Captain Camp
bell, and his brown eyes seemed full
f laughter as he walked up to the I
desk and gave his name and address ;
I just .is JI prisoner might. In fact, this
j well-dressed man was a prisoner, and
; utie over whose capture the police are j
jubilant. Years ago lie was known in j
New York as "Big Ed" Rice, the bosom 1
friend of "Red" Leary and the com- j
('anion of the daring and gentlemanly !
i i'iminals who made the metropolis !
; 1 heir headquarters. His name, he
-ays, is Edward C. Rice.
The charge against Rice is forgery. 1
lie was standing 011 the corner of Park !
place and I'latbush avenue on the af- ;
l r 1110011 of September 12. George Man
ning. a little fellow in Piuckerback
er's, who lives at No. 719 Butler street
passed him. Rice called the boy,
"Will you do me a favor?" be asked.
"What is it?" said George.
Rice drew a check from his pocket, j
ii was drawn on the Sprague National j
Bank, of Brooklyn, and made payable !
to James Chambers, of No. 215 Lin
coln place. The amount was $21.50,
and the signature a forgery of the firm ;
name of Webber & Quinu, coal deal
ers.
Rice told the boy to take the check
in George Stuhbmau, a butcher, at No.
210 Flat bush avenue, and get the
money for it. He would wait on the
corner, he said.
The butcher, knowing Mr. Chambers |
as a customer, cashed the check with
out hesitation. The young messenger,
as soon as the money was delivered to
him. decided to take it to Chambers'
house. He gave it to Mrs. Chambers,
who was surprised to receive it. She 1
gave it to her husband, who returned |
it to the butcher. The police of the I
Bergen Street Station were notified j
and a warrant was obtained for Rice's j
arrest.
Rice is now fifty-eight years old. lie
lives, be told the police, at No. 108
East Sixty-eighth street, New York. |
In ex-Superintendent Ryrnes's book on j
the noted eriininals of the country, he !
is described as being a handsome, j
stout man, magnificently put together, j
wßli brown hair and beard. lie is the ;
soul of politeness, and, according to !
Byrnes, is a clever general thief, I
"stall" and coniiilence man, who has j
served twenty years in prison. He ,
"'iee travelled from the Atlantic to the
Pacific, leaving behind him an unbro
ken trail of sorrowing hotel proprie
tors. His manners were those of a
gentleman of wealth and leisure.
llurvurd'tt Gems.
Many gems in the Miueralogical Mu-
Heuiii of Harvard University are tempt- i
ing to the light-lingered profession—!
particularly the great Garland dia- j
nioiid, says an exchange. This is a
magnificent yellow stone from the
Kiniberley mines in South Africa, and '
is a natural crystal in the form of a
perfect octahedron, the finest crystal ■
of this form in the world. It cost $lO,- j
000. Then there arc tourmalines in
every shade and form of that hand- !
some American gem, some of which,
when cut as brilliants of two or three
c rat . would s< 11 for S3O or S4O, In
various cases are all the other sorts of
precious stones, huge crystals and
masses of topaz, pieces of opal live j

of Ihe exhibition room, contains a col- j
lection the great value of which a !
jl-'iiiiico will indicate. It Is tilled with J
gold ami silver; gold in nuggets, in

i ' HERE IS A NEW AND DREAD DISEASE.
It is Spread by Sick Parrots and Closely
Resembles Tuberculosis.
Psittacosis is the name of a newly
e discovered disease which the pliysi
k, ciaus of New York will be asked to in
t vestlgate. 111 consequence of this in
vestigation, pets of the wealthy and
, the comforters of the declining years
of elderly maidens will suffer, for psit
tacosis has been traced directly to the
r parrot. From parrots this disease has
been communicated to men, and among
men it is rapidly spreading. Psitta
; cosis has heretofore been mistaken for
3 consumption, but French scientists
, have shown that it is more to be
dreaded than tuberculosis. For this
9 reason the attention of pathologists and j
, all progressive men of medicine is be
• ing directed to the newly discovered
• disease.
To Dr. Xovard, the French scientist,
belongs the credit for finding the dif
, fei'once between psittacosis and tuber
culosis. Dr. Xovard has been pursu
-1 ing his investigations in Andral Hos
pital. which is in the ltue des Tour-
I nellc, in Paris. This famous old insti
tution, which was originally a uion
j arch 3% and was taken by the populace
I during the revolution and converted
into a hospital, is in a locality which
j is given over largely to stores for the
sale of domestic pets of every deserip
; tion. For the past five years Dr. No
va rd noticed that numberless owners
and employes of these stores were
brought to Andral Hospital, seemingly
suffering from consumption. In every
case the patient seemed to have been
afflicted suddenly. Great robust men
and women were stricken without
warning, and while after the disease
was once fairly started it ran its course
! ex act I 3* like luberculosis, Dr. Xovard
finally came to believe that it was not
( consumption. It was in s3 f niptoms
j which were regarded as being of minor
significance that Dr. Novard thought
he detected a difference in the cases
1 of the majority of Andral Hospital pa
tients and other people suffering from
consumption.
The disease was originally contracted
by people, it was found, by the handl
ing of unhealthy parrots. Sometimes
the food the sick parrots had picked
over got under the finger nails. The
germs could thus be carried about for
days if the parrot keeper was not par
ticular about his toilet. Psittacosis, It
was found, could be communicated
only to human beings from parrots. It
would not spread among other ani
mals.
There have been numerous cases in
New York in recent years where per
sons who have been bitten or scratched
by parrots have died within a few
days, supposedly from blood poisoning.
1 It bus been psittacosis and not blood
poisoning that lias caused death. There
are dozens of cases of this kind on re
cord.
Among the most notable cases which
have come under in 3' own personal ob
servation was that of Mrs. Charles
Osgood, who died at the Stuyvesnut
House, after she had been bitten on
the lip by her parrot. Her face soon
puffed out to frightful proportions. She
died in fearful agony within thirty
hours after she had been bitten.—New
York Journal.
Art of l*utlnit.
The Bishop of Manchester, In an nd
j dress to young men, advised them to
learn the hardest lesson In the world,
I the art of being patient. He said, "I)o
j your duty, and leave suecess to take
care of Itself, and then you will see
the wisdom of the old proverb, 'Every
thing comes to the man that eau wait.'
You kuow, for instance, how hard it is
Ito learn a difficult subject. All the
ideas are unfamiliar, all the words are
unfamiliar. We go on laboring, and
seem to make no way. Now that ilis
heartens nine students out f ten—the
nine out of ten that will always he ob
scure people—but the tenth man goes
ou. He works harder and harder, he
lets his mind play around the subject,
he lets the ideas of that subject soak
iuto his brain, he is determined that
, nothing can possibly resist effort, and
one flue day a great Hood of light
| comes iu—he suddenly sees all about
it; his work is easy, his work is de
lightful. Everybody snys of him,
1 'What an amazing amount of ability
1 that young man has!' N'o it was not
i ability—it was patient perseverance,
The man had learned to labor and to
j wait."

Here Is a novelty which the Winter
i bicycle girl is sure to welcome with
joy. It is a combination bloomer and
legging, and for ueatuess, convenience
, and warmth it lias no equal. This
j bloomer-legging lias but recently been
; invented and patented by a New Y'ork
; manufacturer.
j The new invention is especially
adapted for women who object to the
i regular bloomer or other ordinary
blfucnted garment. The principal ob
jection to the old bloomer was Its lack
of neatness. It Is true that some wo
meu looked well In I hem, but the gen
eral opinion was that, a* a rule, they
were a failure and about as attractive

The bloomer-legging is a distinct
style. A skirt is to be worn over the
bloomer to the knee, hut below the
knee the legging part ends la a sort of
gaiter, covering the stocking and shoe,
and serves the double purpose of pro
tection froui eold and dampness. Tile
upper part is not bulky, and tile lower
part tits the leg snugly from the knee
down. The garment resembles a pair
