FREELAND, SEPTEMBER 5, 1898.
Information to Tax Collectors.
Tho county commissioners have decid
ed that all tax collectors in the count)
who have failed or neglected to settle up
their tax duplicate for 1897 in full will
not be given the privilege of collecting
taxes in their respective districts on
tiie tax duplicate of 1898. This action
on tho part of the commissioners is
intended to afford protection to the tax
payers of the county and also to
bondsmen who are responsible for the
settlement of uncollected taxes. -It is
certainly fair to the bondsmen, because
lu any case where the full amount of
last year's taxes on the duplicate of any
collector remains unpaid if ho should be
allowed to collect on tho duplicate for
1898 new bondsmen would ho necessary.
Thus all tax collectors who have not
already made their returns in full for
last year's taxes had better lose no time
about doing so, as the commissioners
will take no chances by letting delin
quents have the tax duplicate for 1898.
Another matter that may he important
information to local school boards and
tax collectors has been decided by the
commissioners. Under a special act of
tho legislature passed in 1891 school
boards in boroughs and townships were
permitted to levy and collect dog tax.
This was a special act applicable to
Luzerne and several other large counties,
in 1893 a general law was passed making
it the duty of county commissioners to
levy all dog taxes, but this act could not
he complied with until the legislature of
1897 passod a law repealing tho special
act of 1891 referred to. Therefore, the
commissioners will now govern them
selves in accordance with the act of 1893
and have levied a uniform rate of taxes
on dugs which must bo returned direct
to the county treasury —instead of being
levied and collected as heretofore I y
local school boards in tho various town
ships and boroughs throughout the
county.

His recipe in substance is: Get the

get bold of its tail and pull back as hard ;

It is told in Kansas City that a woman
of un excursion party which was booked
for ly.j hours' stop there delayed the
departure of the excursion train an

Albuquerque, nil because she stopped

Food experts in the depart ment of ag
riculture at Washington assert that,
pound for pound, peanuts have a food
value greater than beefsteak, and that
ten cents' worth of peanuts furnishes
more actual nutriment than ten cents'
worth of almost anything else. This
may be true, but it* is not everybody
who can get away with ten cents' worth
of peanuts at a time. In fact, that
many peanuts will 'ast some persons a
lifetime.
At I3urllngaine, Kun., a woman who

door a tramp appeared there. lie
turned and lied, calling to her not to
shoot.

THE SHORT LIFE OF A GUN.
Number of Times It May tie Tired and
(be Enormous Cost of It.
"Tho life of a gun Is ono of the
most unsatisfactory things about It,"
remarked an ordnaneo officer In dis
cussing the war question with a Wash
ington Star reporter, "and though a
number of experiments have been
made in connection therewith, there
is no absolute certainty as to results.
A general rule has been arrived at
which is thought to be on tho safe
side of the matter, and that is tbat
the modern steel gun should not be
fired more than 100 times. After that,
it matters not what the emergency
i may be, it Is safer to dismantle the
gun and send it back to the shop than
to risk firing it, for tho explosion of
a gun is a decidedly and extensively
dangerous occurrence to all in its im
mediate locality. The firing of a gun
causes the steel to crystalize and
thereby become us brittle as a file. So
far as has yet been discovered, there
is no remedy for it. It is not exactly
a total loss after tho gun has become
dead, for the steel can bo used for
thousands of things in the way of
bolts, braces and the like for new
work and for repairs. As is generally
known, a modern gun is ao expensive
affair, running from $75,000 way up.
It Is equally expensive to keep it In
operation, tho cost for each cartridge
sent from It being over SI,OOO, which
does not include the putting of the
gun on its emplacement or taking It
down, nor the thousands of dollars
necessarily expended in paying salar
ies and subsistence of the officers and
men who operate it. This crystaliza
tion of the metal is one of the mys
teries of the science of ordnance.
The gun could be revivified to some
extent by heating it to n white heat
ami allowing it to cool off slowly, but
tho treatment Is not exactly satisfac
tory or even approximately certain as
to results. It has been said of us, as
ot' other nations, that if we kept every
gnu we own in actual firing operation
for even twenty-four hours the pow- |
dor and shell bill would bankrupt us, I
uud there is some truth lu it. This :
crystalizntion of the metal is not con- I
fined to guns, however. The same
thing occurs in the Journals or axles
used on the railroad ears. It is foi
that reason that careful railroads put
, on new axles every five or six years.
In Europe there are laws upou tho
subject, thought It is custom with us. I
In Germany it Is unlawful to use an |
axle ou passenger cars more than I
four years, though the limitation on I
freight cars is not so rigid. As with 1
the oft-fired gun, the steel in the
Journal b -omes so brittle by the cry*
! tnlization in consequence of its use
that it is liable to snap iuto a dozen
i pieces any time ufter its life is ended."
Oldest Observatory.
The oldest observatory in the world
is in China. Centuries and centuries
j before Europeans constructed astro
nomical instruments of metal this ob
servatory had metal instruments
of the highest value, and they were
known to be hundreds of years old in
1279.
The instruments in the Chinese
observatory are marvelous works of
art and their beauty and boldness of
design could not be duplicated today.
The observatory itself stands higher
than the city wall, and Is square In
i shape, the beautiful astronomical In
struments standing on platforms with
no shelter, true to the Chinese idea of
doing things by contraries. Entrance
to the observatory from the front gate
leads to a hall of rare proportions.
Then comes a yard surrounded on
three sides by one-storied buildings
and shaded by enormous trees. Here :
are two massive and valuable bronze
instruments, exposed for centuries, but
without a flaw or sign of wear.
In the Chinese observatory Is a huge
celestial globe, seven feet six inches
in diameter, having the planets and
principal constellations shown by rais
ed stars in yellow bronze and fixed In
their proper places on the chocolate
brown body of the globe. There are 1
eight instruments in all in the obser- j
vatory, each worthy of special study.

ID (Tec t of MUMIC on llnlr.
An English statistician has recently
been engaged in an original task, that
of studying the influence of music on
the hair. The investigator establishes,
in the first place, that the proportion
of bald persons is 11 per cent, for the
liberal professions in general, with the
exception of physicians, who appear to
hold tho record for baldness, which is
30 per cent. Musical composers do
not form an exception to the rule and
baldness is as frequent among them
as in tho other professions. The cor
net-a-plston and the French horn act
with surprising surety and rapidity; but
the trombone is the depilatory instru
ment par excellence. It will clear the
hair from one's head In five years. This
19 what the author calls "baldness of
tho fanfares," which rages with special
violence among logimental bands.
STUDYING- ABROAD.
THE GREAT DIFFICULTIES AMERICAN
ARTISTS MUST OVERCOME.
Mlm At till lo Claire hay* That If American
Girls Would Devote Themselves to Home
Teachers the ltesult Would he Far More
to Their I'ersonitl Good and Happiness.
Miss Attalie Claire has, since her
last appearance with Lillian Russell,
devoted four years to study In Italy
and Paris.
She has much to say of continental
methods, and particularly of musical
study In the French capital. Mlsb
Claire does not hesitate to express her
self with a frankness which Is con
vincing as it Is refreshing. She Is
particularly opposed to tho studying
of American girls abroad. She does
not consider that they meet with any
thing like proper consideration or en
couragement.
"It would seem," sgld Miss Claire,
"as though professors and students
were alike leagued against her. When
an American girl unwisely chooses to
exhibit her voice before the glaring
lights of foreign public opinion It is not
criticised on Its own merits, but upon
the personal attractiveness and other
charms of Its owner. The voice is
forced to undergo an Inevitable com
parison with those of singers of the
past and present. It Is stoned, hack
ed and besmudged, and finally rele
gated to blttor obscurity, unless, per
chance, she has powerful friends with
an unllmttod amount of both wealth
and Influence. The teachers make
study a torture instead of a pleasure.
They have a cast-iron set of rules,
from which they allow no devlution.
I "You must not go out at night. You
must not dance. It dries your voice
and weakens your vocal cords. You
must not speak in the open air after
j singing. It gives you sore throat.
You must not eat certain fruits ot
vegetables. It makes you hoarse.
You tuust walk long and frequently to
keep up your strength. You must re
nounce all your friends In order to
have time to work.
"Finally," continued Miss Claire,
"you must hope against hope, because
you must work against people who are
ahead of you through their especial
talent for the basest of Intrigues—with
j utter lack of refinement, with nothing
holy or reverent In their purposes,
with but one single idea in their souls
—to be seen. Art to them Is nothing;
publicity everything. The one is sim
ply a moans to the end. American
girl students In last year's coats and
j hats, their countenances pale and
pinched with want, their eyes and Hps
sharpened with expectancy, throng
j the studios and haunt the offices of tho
' impresarios. American pluck Is pro
verbial In Paris musical circles.
| "It Is needless for me to remind you
of the experiences of either Sibyl San
derson or Marie Van Zandt. Their
bitter trials turned the light of public
ity upon the detestable power of the
French claque and hatred of forelgn
! ers. But where these shining exam
ples have finally conquered all opposi
tion there are 9,099 American girls
who every year are forced to retire
! beaten, discouraged aud world-weary.
Right here In Boston this was brought
home to you the other day, where a
young lady of family well-known and
honored, had fruitlessly thrown away
12 years of her life In pursuing the
musical will-of-the-wisp of Parisian
musical study. Small wonder that
she attempted suicide crossing the At
lantic.
"If American girls would but devote
to home teachers and home study a
tltlie of the energy and ambition with
i which they pursue their musical life
abroad, the result would be not only
far more to their own personal good
and happiness, but It would build up
In this country a class of students and
singers better voiced, and of purer
lives than what are found abroad."
Proper Way to Murli Linen.
Tho " monogram hieroglyphics"
which puzzled housekeepers arc no
louger fashionable In linen marking,
the simple Roman letters, embroidered
plainly, having taken their place. Plain
script Is also In good taste, and the
work Is done In a simple satin stitch
on both table cloths and napkins. Bed
clothes should have the name simply
! and clearly written in Indelible Ink,
though towels arc sometimes embroid
ered with the owner's luitluls.
It has been universally decided by
women of good taste that the proper
plaeo to mark table linen la to em
broider It with the Initials of the house
Just below the hem and In the centre
! of the "breadth," the size of the initial
j to be one inch for tablecloths and half
an Inch for napkins,
j Carving cloths and corn and hot po
tato napkins have the initials of the
! hostess sometimes wrought out below
; the hem or fringe, but it Is considered
| better form to have them In dainty
j puttcrns that will be characteristic
enough without the marking.
! It Is certainly In had taste to make a
display of one's Initials or monogram;
even silver should he unobtrusive In
Its lettering,
i The best marking for the linen closet
[ Is to keep it in good order.
A Delicious Ik'vernKo.
| Raspberry-vinegar Is a delicious

bowl; pour on them a quart of good,
i strong vinegar—let them stand twen
j ty-four hours, strain them through a

I the same manner —and then on a third
quart. When this last is prepared,
inake it very sweet with pounied loaf
I sugar, then bottle.
A TORNADO IN SYRACUSE.
Nearly All of tlio statn Fair Buildings
Are Wrecked.
Syracuse, Sept. I.—Tl.e proprietors
of an amusement resort on the shores
of Onondago l.ake saw what they de
scribe as "u wall of water twenty feet
high" advancing rapidly up the lake
shortly after noon to-day. A few min
utes afterward they were rushing into
their cellars for safety, while popcorn
booths, benches, with everything not
nailed down and many things that
were, went sailing through the air.
In a few minutes the storm struck,
and In less than half an hour it did
awful execution. Its velocity was ter
rific. It ripped up trees and unroofed
buildings as if they were straws and
paper. The roof of the Alhambra rink,
where the -Democratic State Conven
tion is to be held, was rolled up like
a scroll and whipped off into the street.
Nearly all the buildings at the New
York State Fair ground were wrecked,
partially or completely, and exhibits
which were being put in place for the
fair next week were scattered to the
winds. Almost by a miracle, the art
gallery, which was unroofed, did not
collapse, and many thousand dollars'
worth of valuable paintings by leading
New York artists were saved.
lMno Creek Ulcffiiiff!*.
Vancouver, Sept 1 —Cnpt. franc,
the la6t man to arrive from Pine Creek,
the latest gold strike, says:
"Although they are the richest dig
gings outside the Klondike in Ameri
ca, the reports are exaggerated. The
whole creek is now staked, and Sur
prise Lake, apparently as rich, which
is above Pine Creek, is being rapidly
taken up. One man named Duval is
cleaning up $8 to the pan. Although
Pine Creek gold is very line and starts
at the grass, it will not run over from
10 to 50 cents to the pan. At this
ruto a man and his pkirtner can make
$25 a day."

THE CLUB AND SALON.
ARE THE WOMEN OF TO-DAY TAKING
TOO MUCH INTEREST IN THEM f
Mrs. Amolia Gere Mason Thinks American
Women, With Their Splendid Initiative
and Boundless Aspirations, Are Assam*
inff Too Much Responsibility.
In the Century there is an article on
"Club and Salon," by Mrs. Amelia Gore
Mason, author of "Women of the
French Salon." Mrs. Mason says:
Of women's clubs there is literally
no end, and they are yet In their vig
orous youth. We have literary clubs,
and art clubs, and musical clubs; clubs
for science, and clubs for philan
thropy; parliamentary clubs, and suf
frage clubs, and anti-suffrage clubs—
clubs of every variety and every grade,
from the luncheon club, with its dilet
tante menu, and the more pretentious
chartered club, that aims at mastering
a scheme of the world, to the simple
worldng-girls' club, which is content
with something loss; and all In the
sacred name of culture. They multi
ply, federate, hold conventions, organ
ize congresses, and really form a vast
educational system that is fast chang
ing old ideals and opening possibili
ties of which no prophetic eye can soe
the end. That they have marvelously
raised the average standard of intelli
gence cannot be questioned, nor that
they have brought out a large number
of able and interesting women who
have generously taken upon them
selves not only their own share of the
work of the world, but a great deal
mo re.
I Ono oan hardly overrate the value of
an Institution which has given light
I and an upward Impulse to so many
j lives, and changed the complexion of
\ society so distinctly for the better.
! Hut it may be worth while to ask if
the women of to-day, with their splen
did initiative and boundless asplra
| tions, are not going a little too fast,
| getting entangled in too much machin
| ery, losing their individuality in
masses, assuming more responsibility
| than they can well carry. Why is it
; that lines too deop for harmonious
thought are so early writing thern
: selves on the strong, tense, mobile, und
delicate faces of American women?
Why is it that the pure Joy of life
seems to be lost in the restless and
insatiable passion for multitudes, so
often thinly disguised as love for
knowledge, which Is not seldom little
more than the shell and husk of
i things?
Is the pursuit of culture degenerating
Into a pursuit of clubs, and are we
] taking for ourselves new taskmasters
more pitiless than the old? "The
j emancipation of woman is fast becom
j Ing her slavery," said one who was
caught in the whirl of the social ma
! chlnory and could find no point of re-
I pose. We pride ourselves on our lib
! erty; but the true value of liberty is
to leave people free from a pressure
that prevents their fullest growth.
[ What do we gain if we simply ex
-1 change one tyranny for another?
! Apart from the fact that the finest
flowers of culture do not spring from
a soil that is constantly turned, any
more than they do from a soil that is
not turned at all, it is a question of
human limitations, of living so as to
I continue to live, of growing so as to
I continue to grow. Nor is it simply a
matter of individuals. Societies, too,
exhaust themselves; and those which
1 reach an exaggerated growth in a day
j are apt to perish in a day. It is not
| the first time in the history of the
I world that there has been a brilliant
reign of intelligence among women,
though perhaps there was never one so
I widely spread as now. Why have they
ended in more or less violent reac
tions? We may not be able to answer
the question satisfactorily, but It gives
us food for reflection.
Iter Secret sfunul.
Nervous housewives whose husbands
frequently bring home company to din
ner without preliminary warning often
worry In their secret hearts for fear
there may not be food enough to sup
ply the unexpected guests. A matron
living In one of the prottiest suburban
residences in West Philadelphia, whose
husband persists In bringing home
guests at the most inopportune times,
has hit upon a happy expedient to
meet possible emergencies.
In passing any dishes at the table of
which there may be a limited supply
tho hostess makes a point to mention
the enigmatical letters "F. H. 13." in
such a manner as not to attract the
attention of the guests around the
board. Immediately the members of the
family are aware of the circumstances
and discreetly partake very lightly, if
at all, of the viands in question. The
secret of the three letters was solved
by a quick-witted guest a few days ago,
and the hostess afterward laughingly
confessed her little scheme. "F. H. 13."
In this Instance stands for "family
hold back."
■lubber Plant*.
Every week sponge your rubber
plant with tobacco Juice. Take a plug
of tobacco, pour water over It, and
when the water becomes deeply color
ed wipe the leaves off with a sponge
dipped In the Juice. This will give
them a wax-like appearance and Is
good for the plant. Every two or
three weeks dig about the roots of the
plant and pour in a teaspoonful of
castor oil.
Dining Hunm Teiniierntnre,
Never let the temperature of the din
ing room rise above sixty-five degrees;
sixty degrees is not too low. If the
lights und the number of people In the
room raise it after the meal has be
gun, lower the windows slightly from
Ihe top.
