A petition signed by the leading clergymen of Philadelphia will be pro sentod to the legislature, asking that body to refuse to seat Theodore B. Stulb. who was elected to the house of repre sentatives from that city, or, if lie can not be refused a seat, to request him to resign. Stulb was at one time a coin missioner of Philadelphia and latei the health ofiicer. From the latter position he resigned last summer at th request of Governor Hastings after it hat) been proven in court that he was finan cially interested In a notorious house kept by one Agnes King (which fact was kept out of the columns of every daily paper in that city at the time of the trial). vStulb was taken up by the Republicans last fall and elected to the legislature. Inasmuch as one-half of Stulb's Phila delphia colleagues are as deeply steeped in filth as himself, the petition of the ministers will receive scant courtesy when it appears. It is men like Stulb who know how to roll up the treuiend ous "majorities" which Philadelphia can furnish at will, and that is of more importance to the Republicans of Penn sylvania than the moral character of our state legislators. At this time of the year the annual statistical reports of the births, deaths, marriages, interments, etc., that have taken place in neighboring boroughs during 1898 are appearing in the local papers of these places. An accurate record of these events becomes quite valuable in after years, and the council should immediately provide for the systematic gathering and preservation of all such information. In most other towns the reports are furnished to the Hoards of Health by ministers,. physi cians, sextons, etc., under compulsion, and when sent in promptly very little work is entailed in making out an annual report which in a short while becomes a valuable historical document. It is a matter worthy of notice that the division of Americans on the ques tion of expansion vs. anti-expansion finds those who favor an alliance with Great Britain on the side of expansion. What connection the two questions inay have has not yet been disclosed, but a connection there is. unless appearances are deceiving. Expansion on the lines followed by the government across the Atlantic is an ideal which every good American should turn from in horror, its record of blood-letting, plundering, corruption and robbery, in the early and in some instances in the present days of its colonial policy, is not the proper model for the United States. There is no doubt but that Freeland, as in former years, will make partisan nominations for the several offices to be filled at the coming election. It is therefore the duty of every citizen to at tend the primaries of the party with which ho is affiliated and help to select men vrho will (ill our local positions with credit to themselves and the town. With worthy men on all tickets the people will have cause to rejoice which ever way the votes are cast. There is a future for Freeland if energetic and prog ressive men are given charge of the borough affairs during the next few years. Commencing today the Harrisburg letters of C. G. Nis9loy to the TRIM NE are resumed. These weekly reports of the doings of the legislature were popu lar with our readers during the last ses sion, and Mr. Nlssley, who is a thorough newspaper man, may be depended upon to give the same satisfaction during the present deliberations of our law-makers.

One b.v one the lamps lit up in the streets, and the gloom gathered in the garret in which Jack Chatteris sat painting Presently that gentleman threw down, brushes and palette with a sigh. | "Thank goodness, that's six finish j ed! I'll run down to old ltroadbean I before he shuts tip shop. Then 1 can buy a new pair of boots for to-mor- j row." lie laughed rather bitterly and strode across to the window to look out upon J the chimneypots of Camden Town. j The prospect was not exhilarating, hut it exercised a weird fascination! upon Jack Chatteris as he stood at tin ! window of his garret and rattled two halfpennies against a latchkey that was a week behind in its rent. A gleam of gold shone in the western sky behind the forest of chimneypots.' "That is the gold of her hair," thought Jack. ~ A very dirty chimney stack writhed hideously in the foreground. "That's me," thought Jack sadly.; "and she's as far away from me as the' sunset." And, after all. "she" was only as far away as Park lane. .Tack was painting her portrait, which, when finished, was to he sub mitted to the hanging committee of the Royal A cad em 3'. "If they don't hang me I shall have to hang myself," Jack used to think in his more desponding moments. Her father was a soap-boiling mil lionaire. Jack was the son of a pot-boiling artist. Therein lay the cause of his despondency, for in painting the lod.v's portrait upon his canvas he had like wise painted it upon his heart, and. to make matters worse, the canvas was! nearly finished. "I can't go on painting in high lights and putting them out again for many more weeks," he mused sadly, "and the old lady is already beginning t.i, suspect me of working with a dryi brush." This surmise was more correct than, even Jack himself dared to think. I Lady Silvertown did suspect the young 1 artist of a secret hankering after her fair daughter. Moreover, she had not-1 leed a certain wistful look in her daughter's eyes of late. "Never mind about the portrait be-| lug finished. John. It's fashionable to leave 'em smudgy nowadays," Lady Silvertown had remarked to her bus hand. "Pay the young man his money i and let him go. I believe our May's getting soft on him, and I'm sure he's in love with her." "Bosh! mother," Sir John had re plied. "May knows better. She only looks pensive-like because she's having her portrait painted." Jack Chatteris knew nothing of thlsi conversation as he stood gazing out at' j the twinkling lamps below, but his heart grew heavy within him as he | thought of the near completion of his! picture. How could he speak of low to the daughter of Sir John Silvertown, millionaire. "The fat's in the lire," said Jack to himself, unconsciously quoting a fav orite but much condensed phrase of Sir John's. Then, nailing his pot-boilers together,l lie sallied forth to sell them to Broad bean, the dealer at starvation prices. The next day came the final Hitting. He was ushered into Lady Silvertown's morning-room. Hardly had the servant left the room when the door opened and Miss Silver town herself approached him. Miss Silvertown was pule, hut out wardly composed. "I—l wish, Mr. Chatteris," she began with a slight catch in her throat, "to thank you for the pains and care you have bestowed upon my portrait, and I hope you will accept this as a memory of those pleasant hours." She slipped a small paint box into ids hand No words passed between them, but each understood the thoughts that pos sessed the other's mind. At length Jack spoke. "Is it possible," said he, half in in terrogation. Miss Silvertown nodded, then came a sob. This was too much for Jack. He took her unresisting in his arms. "Forgive me, dear. I have been a wicked fool to fall in love with 3*ou." You must rorget me!" Miss Silvertown shook her head. "I can't—l—l won't!" she sobbed. "1 told mamma so this morning!" Mr. Chatter!s whistled under his breath. "The ohl dragon!" he murmured. "Mamma is not a dragon," corrected Miss Silvertown. "She is quite right, but but "Of course," replied Jack, whose soul of a sudden became uplifted with a mighty joy: "but I'll work like a nigger —l'll become a royal academician— I'll " "That's Just .what I told mamma," interposed Miss Silvertown, with a divine smile. At this moment there came a sound of footsteps in the passage. In a sec ond Miss Silvertown's handkerchief I was in her pocket, while the voice of Jack Chatteris was raised in favorable criticism of the most hopeless of spur ious old masters. Lady Silvertown entered the room "cleared for action" as Jack afterward l aptly summed up her appearance. Armed with the knowledge that, "ills' May loved hiui, lie grew weary and de clined battle. "Er— MiM Silvertown tells me that she has a slight headache to-day, and would rather not give we her last sit ting." j The stress he laid on the word "last" disarmed Lady Silvertown's suspicions, and he took his leave, to make his way home to Camden Town, walking on | air. Arrived at his garret his heart sank within him. Camden Town seemed a j long way from I'ark lane. In thinking over the future he thought of the past; of his father, who i had died some years since, an unsue- I cessful, eccentric, struggling artist; of i his mother, who, his father told him, I died soon after he was born. One memory awoke another, till in ■ his mind he identified his mother with I a picture that used to lean with its 1 face against the wall of his father's I studio. He remembered how ou his sixth birthday he had turned this canvas j around to the light, revealing the face ■of a beautiful woman wonderfully painted by a master hand. The eyes had seeuird to look out of the canvas at him with a loving gaze, and he remembered well how he had kissed the full, smilling lips, crying "Mother!" to the painted represeuta- I tion. He remembered how ais father, hear ing his cry, had rushed into the studio, and lor the first and last time had laid hands upon him in anger, seizing liim by the shoulders and throwing him vio lently across the room, so that lio struck his head against the easel with a blow that stunned him. lie recalled his awakening sensations —how he found his father hanging over his bed, with a white, scared face, wringing his hands and crying. "1 have killed him! I have killed my boy!" "Poor old governor. Para afraid 1 was a bit off his head," murmured Jack, as he pondered over these old memories. "1 wonder what he did with that picture?" Then came a memory of a glimpse through a half-opened door as he lay in bed, sick and dazed from the blow. I lis father liad the picture on the easel and had painted quickly over it. Jack rose and strode over to a pile of old sketches that lay against the wall. One of these ho selected without hes itation. and. taking his palette knife, scraped carefully. There was a picture below the rough landscape! Stimulated by this discovery, Jack went eagerly to work, and in the course of a few hours he removed the upper painting entirely. "By Millais!" lie gasped, as tlie fam iliar initial of the master appeared in the corner. He gazed long and lovingly at the face. He knew by its likeness to hint sell' that this was his mother, this beautiful woman. Hastily wrapping up the picture, ho carried it off' to Mr. Broadbean. to seek his advice as to the completion of its cleaning. Mr. Broadbean was in bis shop. Ho greeted Jack with a friendly nod. "I want you to look at a picture for me .Mr. Broadbean." "Chuck up!" replied Mr. Broadbeau, affably. Jack cut the striug and threw back the paper. "It's the missing Millais!" ejaculated Mr. Broadbean, starting back. "Excuse me," replied Jack, politely; j "it is a Millais." I "Why, I've been on the lookout for that picture these twenty years! So j has every picture dealer in England," answered Mr. Broadbean. "And you i say it is your father?" "William Chatteris, landscape paint | or." Mr. Broadbean raised* his glasses with a shaking hand. He looked at the picture, then at Jack. "A wonderful likeness," he murmur ed. "You say that your father was William Chatteris, the landscape paint er?" he added aloud. I "Yes." "Is your mother still alive?" "She died when I was a baby." "Are you certain that this is her por ! trait?" ! "Quite." Mr. Broadbean leaned his face in his i bands for some seconds; then be spoke, j "See here, Mr. Chatteris." he said, "t do not wish to pry into any of you fum- I ily affairs, hut I will tell you the his tory of this portrait, it was painted thirty years ago by Millais. The lady is the duchess of Wessex, uud is still—" j "Alive?" gasped .lack. "Yes; still alive. The duke of Wes sex. it is said, was an exceedingly ec centric and jealous man, and the mar riage was an unhappy one. After a violent quarrel lie (disappeared, to gether with his infant son and this por trait of his wife. The police have had the case in hand for years, and every picture dealer in the world has been J told to look out for the 'missing Mil lais.' as it is called in the profession. If that lady is your mother site will probably call on me in ten minutes to look at that there Constable. If you are her son I hope your grace will break It to her as gently as possible that you are the duke of Wessex." "Hold on. Mr. Chatteris, for heaven's sake! Here she is!" An elderly lady was deseending from a carriage which had just drawn up at too door. •lack stood rooted to the ground. She was a beautiful lady, with the eyes of tlie picture and wonderful white curls. An ohseqiiinouß footman flung open the door of the shop. Mr. Broadbean stealthily slipped over to the door and bolted it. Then he let fall the blind, much to the footman's amazement, and slipped off on tiptoe into the cellar, where he commenced to tear up a ten-guinea proof engraving into small pieces—Just to ease liis feel ings. as lie afterward said. The old lady advanced toward -Tack. She did not see the picture, but saw Jack. "My boy!" "Mother!" Mr. Broadbean, down In the cellar heard the cry and promptly punched Ills fist through the eye of a doubtful Rubens. Otherwise, ho declares, he would have died of heart, failure. No one was more surprised than Sir John Silvertown, who, by the way, has never paid Jack for his portrait of th'i duchess of Wessex, which, again by the ay, was rejected at the academy. UNHEALTHY BED CLOTHES. Rendered Deadly by Device! of the Man ufacturer to Increaee Weight. Science! Thy name is adulteration. Another terror has been added to exist ence by the revelation made by an English trade paper of the processes by which certain manufacturers "fill" the sheets and blankets with which they flood the market. We are told that af ter a piece of waste sheeting has been woven the cloth is passed over a trough containing a solution of zinc, sulphate of magnesia (commonly known as Ep som salts) and water. This is called a sprinkler. A revolving brush plays a spray of these noxious ingredients upon the cloth, with the result that a fifty-pound piece after the operation weighs seven and one-half pounds more than when it left the loom. As the goods are sold by the pound the object is evident. But what about the pur chaser? A piece cuts up into ten pairß of sheets. Each pair, therefore, con tains three-quarters of a pound of moisture-attracting material. The re sults are appalling. As soon as a wet day comes the sheets become damp and the luckless wight who sleeps be tween them is apt to contract a chill that may send him to the bourne whence no traveler returns. Even if suspicions are aroused and he boldly casts aside the sheets and wraps him self in the blankets it may avail him nothing. For the blanket makers have learned the trick, and the same ill-re sults may ensue. Next we shall hear that the counterpane makers are equal ly astute, and the timid sleeper may be driven to provide himself with thewool en sleeping bags that suggest travels in the furthest north. The only advantage of these "filled" or heavily "sized" sheets and blankets is that they are death to insects. But if they kill the sleeper as well as the pulex irritants—to say nothing of the cimexlectularius —what boots it? The Pennnee Stone. In India, three miles from Kiliegor, is the famous penance stone.

Nothing could more strikingly illus trate the importance of small things than the large role which is now at tributed to the mosquito in the etiology of some of the most serious and wide spread diseases to which the human race is subject. It is truly said that what prevents the successful coloniza tion of many tropical countries, and what throws the greatest obstacle in the way of civilization and of good government in vast regions of central Africa, is not climate, not distance from home, and not unfriendliness on the part of the natives. The obstacle is malaria, and now we find that the prevalence of malaria, so far as man is concerned, depends on the mosquito, and that this pestilent little insect, in addition to irritating and annoying, is the means by which the poison of ma laria i 3 propagated and distributed. For years back botanists have known the important part played by birds in the scattering of seed, and of insects in the distribution of the pollen of plants; and it seems not unlikely that pathol ogists will have to recognize in a much larger degree than has till lately been done, the large part taken by the sub ordinate forms of life by which we are surrounded —our cattle, our horses, our dogs and cats, our flies, our mos ' quitoes, and perhaps even our fleas— in distributing disease from man to man, and, as is stated in regard to the mosquUp and malaria, in deciding whether the extension of our empire over great areas of the globe's surface shall be possible or not.

I Indeed, I consider it almost a mlradle that I turned out as well as I did. It was at the close of the Civil war when I cut this wicked yet laughable prank, which I shall never forget. I was not more than ten years old j when the town of B gave a grand festival in honor of the returned pa- 1 triots who had fought so valiantly and successfully for our country's cause. Every woman in the country busied ' heself to make the reunion one of gay ety. Oh, the good things the farmers' 1 wives prepared and carried to the old town hall, where the festival was held. They were arranged on benches in the basement as though to taunt the hungry looking boys on the outside. For, much to our anger, and disap pointment, all were admitted, free of charge, but boys—poor, neglected boys. There we were to the number of a dozen or more peeping cautious ly through one of the basement windows, which fortunately was ' minus a pane of glass. It was en tirely too tempting for us to see the j several cakes standing next to tho broken window exposed to full view and within our grasp. Cake was a lux- 1 ury in most of our homes, and now that an opportunity so rare presented | itself we were not slow to take advan- | tage of it. We crowded about the window and each cne proceeded to help himself. While we were inus engaged there I came stealthily behind us our town [ marshal. If ever there was a kind- I hearted soul it was he. Itroll and good natured and ever ready to forgive, while there was, notwiths anding, a certain seuse of authority about his person that made the bovs honor as well as fear him. He was nearly upon us, however, before we discovered him, but upon seeing him began running as though for our live*! To my fright and dlspalr, I was leaptored and fell a victim to the punishment the con- | stable desired to inflict upon me. "I'll put ye where you'll not git no more rakes fur awhile," he said sharp ly, as he shoved me into an old stor- [ age room of the hall and slamming ' the door he walked heavily away. I Finding myself alone, 1 began to ax- ; plore my prißon. The room was dark j upon first entering it—so dark I was obliged to walk with my hands ex tended before me and with slow and uncertain step lest I stumble and fall. I had not gone far, however, when I suddenly came to a halt. My obstruc tion was nothing more than a board supported upon barrels. Running my hand along its surface I discovered— what! Or was I dreaming? The board was ladended with the good things for the festival! There were cakes of all description, pies of evey kind, cookies, cold meats, fruit, and, in fact, most everything boys like. Before 1 could fully realize my good fortune, I had begun sampling them each in their turn. Oh, how delicious they were! The pumpkin pies tasted better (per haps because they were stolen) than any I had ever ate before; and the doughnuts were even better than the ones my grandmother used to make on Thanksgiving. It was shameful, the way I mutil ated the lovely pies and cakes, for find ing neither knife or fork, I used my fingers to the best advantage, without pity for the now innocent ladies who had labored so faithfully in preparing the feast. I must have looked comical, standing there, my mouth and hands full, glancing hurriedly at the door, and acting altogether like a hungry little waif stealing his dinner. Realizing the constable would soon discover his mistake and release me, I began filling my pockets, with re newed enegy, for I wanted the boys as well as myself to have a share of the feast. f Meanwhile,the marshal hadcliuekled triumphantly to himself, and started strolling about the grounds, in search of more boys. But none were in sight, for profiting by my capture,they had fled away. So the constable walked about smoking his pipe. Then he walked into the room where the ladies were serving dinner and remark ed to a group standing near him, with an indifferent gesture of his hand, "I've got one o' them boys that was stealln' through the winder in yonder rooom." "Oh! oh!" shrieked the ladies in despair, while they wrung their hands with wild lamentations. "Take him out, quick! The provisions! Don't you know? The provisions! We've got all the provisions in there! Oh, dear! Oh what shall we do? What a shame!" The constable hurried to the room containing me, and opening the door (luckily I bad heard him coming), he said in droll tone, while there was a half-dogged, half-amused look upon his face, "I guess you kin come out now, if you'll promise to be a good boy after this." He eyed my pockets sus piciously as I passed out,but said noth ing. I found my comrades and we had a feast from the contents of my pockets. < ( The story became well-known in our little town and though my Sunday school teacher severely reprimanded me, and the women who suffered the loss pronounced me a thief, I became a great favorite with the old soldiers, who thought my stolen feast a good Joke. Although my story has no mor al worth the telling and presents a bad, rather than a good example, hero is a moral which will probably apply to the marshal. It is, "Captor, be careful where you put your prisoner." Few Paupers In Japan. The paupers in Japan number fewer than 10,000 out of a population of 38,- 000,000.
