FREELAND, PA.. FEBRUARY 4. 1897.
Starvation in the Cities.
Statements put forth a few weeks 1
ago, says tho Pittisburg Post , that there
would be great destitution and suffering
in Chicago this winter, are confirmed by
actual conditions now existing in that
city. Death by exposure and starva
tion are reported. The number of the
unemployed, even among the skilled
workmen, is unprecedently large.
"Bread riots" are spoken of as probable.
The conditions in some parts of the city
are said to be apalling. The Chicago
people arc liberal and are adopting or- j
ganlzed measures to meet the distress in j
the most effective way. There is much
suffering in all nothern cities, Intenslfi- I
ed by the extreme cold weather.
The picture presented in the Post of j
the want and privation in Pittsburg is ;
scarcely credible. The police author!- 1
ties report many thousands of people in i '
that part of the city on the verge of
starvation, It is probably an exag- j J
geratcd statement that "half the people 1
of the Southside are starving," as re
ported by the police inspector of that
district, but still it is to be remembered
that the police have the best opportuni
ties of learning the facts as they exist, j
The applications for reiiof come from
honest and hard-working people who
would be the last to ask relief unless
forced to do so by the spur of extreme
necessity. It would be well to extend
the scope of our organized charities and
prepare for what may be times of 1
extreme need, with many thousands 1
calling for public aid.
The New York Tribune say that at no ;
time within the memory of the present !
generation lias the number of unem
ployed been so great in New York as
this winter, and never before has the
strain on public and private charity
been so severe. It speaks of "broad
cloth destitution." and says that it is
not merely tho laboring class who are
suffering, but large numbers of others,
who may be described as professional
men, the clerks, the salesmen, the ar- !
chitects, and the literary men.
Speaking of the vast amount of sym
pathy devoted to the Sing Sing convicts,
who have been deprived of the oppor
tunity of working, and are therefore in
danger of insanity, the Tribune says: <
"it may be questioned whether the first j (
duty of the people of Now York is not .
toward those of their more honest aud
honorable fellow-citizens whose enforced ■
idleness. due*to their inability to find j
employment, is driving them to the :
verge of insanity—an insanity caused |
not so much by the brooding over their
own unhappy lot as by the spectacle of
their wives and little ones literally starv- I
ing before their eyes."
Remarkable Oiler of a Great Newspaper.
The Philadelphia Press , in accordance :
with its policy of always keeping abreast
of the times, announces a departure
which is certain to attract widespread
attention by reason of its novelty and to
bring happiness to thousands, it is tho
establishment of a premium department
through which men and women, boys ,
and girls, schools, churches, clubs and j
societies can get, free of cost, tho tilings j
they have been wanting for years, but |
have been unable to buy. The range of !
gifts which the Press proposes to give
free to those who will make a little effort,
fs so great that it embraces almost every
thing, useful aud ornamental, which
anybody can wish for. The project even
includes the payment hy the Press of the i
expenses of a course iu any college or j
university for any number of ambitious j
young men and women. The whole j
plan is described in the Press Premium
List, which can be obtained free from •
any agent for the Press or will be sent j
by mail to any person who will send two j
two-cent stamps to the Philadelphia :
office of the paper.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, February 1, 1867.
Although it was considered a mutter
of doubt, the Republican managers
had hopes that some of the Silver Re
publican senators might be persuaded to
vote with their old party when the new
tariff bill comes up for action at the
extra session of congress. They no
longer indulge such hopes. They know
that not only will the Silver Republicans
not vote for the tariff bill, but that they
will vote against it if their votes can
defeat it. This has been fully determin
ed upon siuce the Republicans resorted
to such extraordinary tactics to defeat
Senator Dubois, of Idaho, as a punish
ment for having followed his convictions
and the wishes of his constituents by
having supported Bryan and silver in
the late campaign.
Although it is the policy of the Re
publican leaders iu both house aud senate
to keep the Cuba question in the back
ground, there are some men who refuse
to be gagged. One of these is Represen
tative Hardy, of Indiana, who got the
tloor to speak on the agricultural appro
priation bill, and proceeded to make a
red hot live minute speech for Cuba,
which he would have continued had not
his request for unanimous consent for
an extension of time been refused. He
made a direct attack upon the adminis
tration, and those senators and repre
sentatives who. lie said, were dining
with the Spanish minister too often t(
be able to hear the appeals of tho people
struggling for liberty.
If there is anything in tho old super
stition. McKinley's ears must have been
burning ever since it was announced
that lie had chosen Lyman J. Gage, ot
Chicago, a man who voted for Cleveland,
signed the petition upon which Governor
Altgeld pardoned the Chicago anarchists,
and who has for years been known as al
most a free trader iu his tariff views, foi
iiis secretary of the treasury. It is a
great effort for tho Republicans in con
gross to keep from expressing public!}
the disgust they feel for this break ot
McKinley's, but in view of the official
pie that McKinley will soon begin to dis
tribute, they are making the effort.
Senator Allen took occasion to reply
to the various rumors saying that he
would vote for the Republican tariff bill,
by saying: ' I have said that I believe
the proposed tariff measure of the Re
publicans ought to be permitted to pass,
if it has sufficient votes, after a reason
able debate. This does not mean, how
ever, that I will vote for the Republican
tariff bill. On the contrary, I shall vote
against it." In other words, Senator
Allen occupies the same position towards
the tariff hill that Senator Jones aud
other prominent Democrats do—that no
(filibustering shall be indulged in to
prevent its coming to a vote.
According to Republican gossip, one
of the surest ways to get an aspirant for
cabinet honors turned down by McKin
ley. is to get him endorsed by Senator
Chandler. It is said that McKinley
dreads nothing so much as that he ma\
by accident do something that Chandler
wants him to do, or appoint somebod;
whom Chandler wants appointed.
After all that had been said and done
about the intention of the Republicans
of the house ways and means committee
to give us a new and thoroughly conser
vative tariff bill, they are proceeding to
give us the same old McKinley bill, hav
ing already adopted several entire Mc-
Kinley schedules.
The arbitration treaty lias been amend
ed and favorably reported to the senate,
although every silver man on the com
mittee voted against it. S. j

Feb. 27, 1836. His grandfather served in
the Revolutionary war and is said to have
been a descendant of William the Conquer
or. When 11 years of age, both ids paronts
died. For the next seven years he worked
on a farm, earning money to defray his
expenses at the Richfield (O.) academy
during the winters. Subsequently he
GENERAL RUSSELL A. ALGER,
taught school aud iu March, 1857, enter
ed a law oillec in Akron. Two years later
ho was admitted to the bar. He entered
the law oitlce of Otis A: Coffinbury in
Cleveland, hut abandoned the practice of
law the following autumn on account of
failing health and moved to Grand Rap
ids, where lie engaged in the lum
ber business and where in 1861 he was
married to Annette H. Henry.
In 1861 Alger unlisted In the Second
Miohlgan cavalry and was made captain
of Company C. Ho was wounded in the
battle of Bonneville, Miss. Owing to ids
part in this engagement he was promoted
to the rank of major. In 1862 lie became
lieutenant colonel of the Sixth Michigan
cavalry and iu 1868 was made colonel of
the Fifth Michigan cavalry, his regiment
being in Custer's famous brigade. In 1864
his health induced him to retire from the
service. He was breveted brigadier and
major general "for gallant and meritori
ous service" and was on private service in
1863-4, receiving orders personally from
President Lincoln.
In 1865 he moved to Detroit, where lie
has since been extensively engaged in the
lumber and pine laud business. Ho was a
member of the firm of Moore A: Alger and
became the head ol' the firm R. A. Alger
A: Co., the most extensive pine timber op
erators in the west. Subsequently the firm
was merged into that of Alger, Smith &
Co., which owns and operates extensive
tracts and mills in Michigan and in tho
Canadian Georgian bay region.
General Alger was elected governor of
Michigan in 1884, receiving a plurality of
3,650 votes over Begole, fusionist. In 1888
he was one of the leading candidates for the
noiuinution by t he Republican convention
for the presidency. Great acrimony was
engendered between the Alger workers
and those working for Senator Sherman.

BEETLE'S EYES A LENS.
Reproduce the Head of a Man Hun
dreds of Times.
Remarkable Experiment# Which Settle a
Scientific Dippnte—X Raj Proved
to Be No Important Aid
to Visualization.
Dr. G. F. Allen, of Aurora, 111., has ac
complished the marvelous feat of tak
ing a photograph through a lens com
posed of a beetle's eye. A separate out
line of the image at which the camera
was directed was seen on every one of
Ihe hundreds of facets which are part
itnd parcel of the eye of the insect so
familiar to us all.
This is the first instance where any
thing of t.he sort has been accomplished.
Heretofore there has been ay quuntity
of theory, but a great lack of practice.
Now it is shown in that most convincing
of forms, a photograph. It all came
about through a curious statement
made ut a meeting of the British
Scientific association, at which Prof.
\V. M. Stine, of the Armour institute,
called attention to a very curious and j
interesting lantern slide in his posses
sion. During a discussion of the prop
crties of the Roentgen rays a leading j
scientist suggested that as certain in
sects had eyes seemingly unadapted to
see by ordinary sunlight-, they might
visualize by means of the X rays.
It was held by a number of the ;
savants in attendance at the nssoeiation ;
meeting that the X ray could hardly lie
termed an incentive to visualization. So
warm did the discussion become that it
was finally decided to make a genuine
lest with the eye of a chosen insect.
Dr. Allen, of Aurora, says the Chica
go Times-Herald, chose the eyes of a
beetle to demonstrate to the satisfac
tion of every one that the X ray was
no aid to visualization whatever. The
result of his experiment proves con
clusively that he was right, and that
the eminent gentlemen who favored the
X ray theory were as far from the truth
as was Preacher Jasper when he in
sisted "the sun do move."
It- is a curious study that this photo
graph lays open to the laymen of
science. The beetle has a curious pro
jecting eye, very similar to the sort one
sometimes sees in man himself. The
SILHOUETTE IN EVERY FACET.
pye is large and round, or almost so.
It is not a perfect .sphere, but is slight ly
convex in shape. The accompanying
picture show* really one-half of the eye
of the beetle. Such insects have eyes
called compound, formed not of one
lens, but of several hundred, set side
by side like cells in a honeycomb.
It ia impossible to conceive, from the
picture priuted, an al>olutely correct
idea of the wonderful clearness with
which the different facets of the leetle's
eye cause to be placed upon the plate
he image which they reflect. Although
I ihe image is shown a hundred or more
times, in every instance it is clear and
perfect. Very fine and delicate are the
lines, to be sure, and the features are
only distinguishable cleurly by the aid
of a microscope, but nothiug is omitted,
and the wonderful handiwork of na
ture has never been more clearly shown
than when this eye with artificial stim
ulus carries out the part for which it
was created.
It so happens that in this instance a
silhouette was used instead of the or
dinary photograph. It will lieolieerved
that this is exactly what the accom
panying illustration shows. Other and
similar experiments, however, have
demonstrated the truth of the state
ment us to the accurate reproduction of
every lineuwent of the human face. To
gain, an adequate idea of exactly what
a photograph through the multiple
fuoets of a beetle's eye accomplishes,
look carefully into the eye of some
person who is close to and looking
steadfastly at you. You will see re
fleeted in the eye of the other your own
fuce, clear and distinct, with not a
vestige of a line missing. Now this is
just what happens when the beetle
looks at you, only your eyes are reflect
ed several hundred times.
This Is what the photograph taken
by Dr. Allen shows. It is one of the
most remarkable combinations of dif
ferent branches of science that the
world has yet seen.
A Maori Girl's Pluck j l r Ht.
The Dunedin correspondent of tlie
Melbourne Argus tells the story of a
plucky rescue by a Maori girl aged lf>.
She was crossing ljake Tn.npo in a
canoe with three children, aged two,
three and twelve years. "When fully
half a mile from shore u squall capsized
the canoe, mid the girl and tJie three
children were soon struggling in the
water. The girl did not lose her head,
| but picked up the children one by one
and placed them 011 the bottom of the
canoe. She then divested herself of her
wet skirts, and, taking a rope attached
| to the bow of. the canoe in her teeth,
towed the canoe and children safely to
the shore in the face of the flying surf.
