FREELAND, PA., FEBRUARY 13,1899. j
Dr. Rothrock's Head to Drop.
Reports from liarrisburg include Dr.
J. T. Rothrock, forestry commissioner
of the state, among the hundreds of
office holders who are slated for re- j
moval by Governor Stone to make j
places for Quayltes. In the eyes of the ,
spoilsman no position should be held by ■
any but one who has helped the victor
to win. The creed of this class of !
politicians is so narrow that they cannot
comprehend the fact that some people
are peculiarly fitted to perform certain
work. Their limited vision permits j
them to see only the dollars attached to
the position, and forthwith they clamor
for the position. When the power to
remove and appoint is in the hands of a
graduate from the spoils class, tho
clamor does not continue long until it is
satisfied.
In the case of Dr. Rothrock these
facts are brought out with a vividness
that is truly discreditable to the state.
Tho office of forestry commissioner Is
perhaps tho most non-political in the
country. The patronage of the office is
nothing, and the occupant can neither
help nor injure one party or another,
outside of his influence as a private
citizen. Yet, if reports be true, a
change in tho office is about to be an
nounced.
It is not alleged that I)r. Rothrock is
incapable, that he has failed to adminis
ter bis duties in a proper manner or
that even his Republicanism is question
able.
All that can be said against him is
that he has devoted the education of
his life, all his time and all his influence
and prestige to procure legislation that
might advance the cause of forestry,
and to teach the people of his state the
great, necessity of protecting trees and
plants. He has not spent his time
strengthening the political fences of
this or that faction of the Republican |
party, like many of his fellow office i
holders, and because he lias failed to
commit this offense while in the pay of j
the state the Quayites demand his of- i
flcial head as a warning to all others i
that the man who fails to pay homage
to Quay forfeits the right to hold offici
in Pennsylvania.
Until a short time ago little or no
attention was given to the work of the
department over which Dr. Rothrock
presides. The matter of forestry pro
tection, Arbor day observances and
the like were considered of interest to
only those who were directly interested
In timber cultivation. People did not
realize that their water supplies and a
hundred other matters of daily life were
intimately connected with forestry pre
servation. I)r. Ilothrock has educated
Pennsylvanians to their duty, or at least
has made such wonderful progress in
that direction, that his removal at this
time, in the midst of his self-sacrificing
and good work, would be an irreparable
loss to the state.
But if his removal will hasten the
voters in deciding that the time is here
to overthrow a system that places merit
below political power, it will not be
without its compensations.
A judges' retirement bill has been
introduced in the house at liarrisburg.
Tho measure provides that when any
law judge, after having attained the
age of seventy years, and having held
his commission for at least twenty
years consecutively, or, if not continu
ously in tho same court, having faith
fully served as a judge altogether thirty
years, shall, before the expiration of his
torm resign, he shall thereafter in con
sideration of such resignation and retire
ment, receive in equal quarterly instal
ments an amount of money equal to
two-thirds of the annual salary payable
to him at tho time of such resignation.
The plans for raiding the treasury are
just getting properly started.

BY J. L. HARBOUR.
The widow Darby, fair, plump, and
looking far younger than her 4~> years,
had ridden into town with .fared Kent
because her horse had lamed himself
that morning, and .Tared "happened to
be going in." and had asked the widow
to ride with him.
.fared was what some of the people of
the neighborhood called a "regular bora
old baeli.' He flouted and scorned
womankind most of the fifty years of
his life, and had openly set forth ids
conviction that men were "better off
without 'em than with 'em," particular
ly when it come to "marrying of 'em.''
He had held to this conviction so long
and had proclaimed it so boldly and so
constantly that all of the match-makers
in the rural neighborhood in which lie
lived had. given him up a hopeless ease
beyond the pale of their schemes for
making a benedict of him.
.fared was not. like most avowed
women haters, a crabbed, cross-grained
sneeringly, cynical man, which made
his celibacy all the more unpardonable
in the eyes of the match-makers.
"He'd make a real good husband if
i.o'd try," they said. "Then he has the
nicest farm in the neighborhood, with
one of the best houses on ii and money
out at interest, although he's not a bit
mean and stingy. He'll do his full
share always for a neighbor in distress.
It isn't because he's too stingy to sup
port her that .fared doesn't get him a
wife."
It was a clear, crisp morning in
February when .Tared rode to the vill
age with the widow Darby seated be- j
side him in his neat little cutter. The I
sleighing was tine and the air keen
and exhilarating. It gave the widow's j
plump cheeks a beautiful crimson glow I
and made her black eyes sparkle. She
was in high spirits and her laugh rang
out frequently as merry and rippling as
the laugh of a child.
Hut then the widow Darby was pro
verbially cheery. She had suffered
keenly the loss of her husband and
both of her children, but time had soft
ened her grief, and she was too wise
to spend her life in gloom and grief
over the loss of those who were beyond
all care and sorrow.
She had a comfortable little home
and a few acres of land adjoining
Tared Kent's. She had known Jared
nil of her life, but not ouce had she
thought of him as a possible successor
t.) Joel Darby.
".Tared will never marry anyone," she
had said. "He isn't of a marrying dis
position. Some men are that way. It's
nil they lack to make 'em what God in
tended they should be. My husband
! and I used to talk .Tared over a good
i deal, and we did our full share to get
| him settled for life with a good wife.
; We used to invite lots of nice girls,
young and elderly both, to our house
and then have Jared come over to tea
and to play croquet with them. He'd
be nice and pleasant and all that, hut
he never came any ways near falling
into any of the traps we set for him.
We thought onee that he did take a
kind of a shine to a nice; sweet real
good looking girl of about HO named
Janet Dcano from over Shelby way.
who was visiting us. She'd of made
him an awful good wife, and I sung
her praises all the time, but nothing
j came of it."
It's an elegant morning, isn't itV"
said Jared, as he and the widow flew
along over the hills and through long
lanes in which the snow was drifted
almost 10 the top of the fences.
' "Oh. it's lovely!" replied the widow,
t "1 like snow."
"So do I. You got much to do in j
town?"
"No; I'll be through with all of my
errands in an hour. I can let some
thing go if you don't want to stay in
town that long."
"Oh, that'll be none too long for inc.
Where shall 1 meet you?"
"I'll be at Smith & Hanseom's dry
goods store, any time you sav."
"We'll call it 11 o'clock, then." j
It was three minutes after 11 when
Jared drove up to the appointed place
of meeting. The widow had stepped
into the sleigh and be was tucking the
robes in around her when she said:
"There, Jared. I'm just like other
women; I've forgotten something."
"What is it?"
"I forgot to go around to the post
office. I know that there's nothing
there for me, because one of the Stone
boys brought my mail out last night,
and there's no mail trains until noon;
but poor old Jane Carr came over just
before I left and wanted ine to he sure
and see if there was a letter for her.
Iler daughter is very sick out west,
and she hasn't had a letter for a week,
and she's half wild. I couldn't hear to
tell her I'd forgotten to go to the
j office."
! "I'll drive 'round that way," said
•Fared. "It won't be three blocks out of
the way."
Two or three boys stood idling in
front of the postofflce and .Tared said
to one of them he chanced to know:
"Say. Jimmies run into tlie office and
see If there's any letter for Mrs. Jane
1 f, atr. You needn't ask for me. for I've
een around and got my mail."
"You might look in box 184," said
I Irs. Darby, "Mebbe there's a drop
otter me."
The boy came out a moment latei
with a very large square white en
velope in one lmnd and a small blue en
velope in the other. lie grinned as hf
handed them to Mrs. Darby. Shi
glanced at the blue envelope and said
joyfully:
"O here's a letter for Jane, and It's
from her daughter, I know by the post
mark. How glad Jane will be!—well,
I declare;"
She burst into a merry laugh as she
looked at the big white, embossed en
velope. The boy had told the truth
when he had gone back to his com
rades and said with a titter:
"She's got a valentine!"
"Who in the land ever sent me that
thing?" said Mrs. Darby, holding the
envelope out at arm's length. "I didn't
•veil know it was Valentine's Day. If
it isn't the greatest idea that 1 should
get a valentine."
"I don't know why you shouldn't,"
said J a red.
"Oh, because I—but I guess some
child sent it."
"Maybe not."
"No one else could have had so
little gumption!" said the widow with
another laugh. "Maybe there's one
of these comic valentines inside of it
some ridiculous thing about a widow
likely."
"Why don't you open It and see?"
"1 will."
She burst into another laugh as she
drew forth a dainty creation of lace
paper, tinsel and bright colored em
bossed pictures.
"How perfectly ridiculous!" she said '
I
"AN HOUR LATER THEY STOPPED AT
JANE CARU'S GATE."
"The idea of any one being ninny
enough to send an old woman like me
a thing like that!"
"You're not an oil woman."
"I'm forty-five!"
"Well, I'm older than that, and I
don't call myself an old man. Many
women around here would be glad to
get a valentine like that if the sender
really meant it."
"Yes, and if you were the sender."
"Ini not vain enough to think that
and not foolish enough to say it if I
did think it."
"No, I don't think that you are, .Tared.
But I wonder who could have sent me
this. The writing on the envelope is
evidently disguised, and—O, here is
something inside! Let's see what it
says.
" 'O wilt thou be my valentine
Forever and forever aye,
And wilt thou take this heart of mine,
And give me thine to-day?' "
There was another verse hut before
she had read it, the widow Darby cried
out: "Jared Kent, that's your hand
writing and you need not try to deny
it!"
"I'm not trying to deny It. You'll
Und my name signed in full to the next
verse on the other page." This was
the next verse:
"If 'yes' my answer is to be,
My heart with joy will fill.
If 'no,' I yet shall he your friend
And I shall love you still."
They had reached the outskirts of
the town. Jared brought the horse to
a stand-still, and said:
"Is it yes or no, Lucy.?"
She looked at him with shining eyes,
and laughing face for a moment. Then
she laid one of her mittened hands
on the sleeve of the great fur coat he
wore, and said:
"I think it is yes, .Tared."
He turned his horse's head toward
the town.
"Where are you going?" she asked.
"Back to the minister's. It's Valen
tine's Day, you know, and if you are
to be my valentine. I want you to-day."
An hour later they stopped at Jane
Carr's gate. She came skurryiug out
; for her letter with her apron over her
head. "I brought you a letter. Jane,
and I got a valentine," said Lucy, hold
ing up the big. white envelope.
"I got one also," said .Tared, as he put
an arm around his wife and kissed
her.
APROPOS.
Between i sips of coffee
I paused a Lot to say.
"You've surely not forgotten
That 'tis St. Valentine's Day?
"You used, when you were courting.
To sentimental grow,
And send me at this season
i Some gift quite apropos.
"If blue by eliance my hall gown,
A box would come from you
Forget-me-nots containing.
And a valentine in blue.
I "If sweet you said my lips were,
Like gold my curling locks,
You sent a golden jewel
And sweets in costly box.
"But sentiment by wedlock,
Is dulled—or soon or late;
N'o valentine finds Cupid
For wives appropriate."
As day wore on, forgotten
These words of sad regret,
The door bell rang. I answered,
i A messenger I met.
An envelope with Cupids
I And roses all enlaced!
I opened it, and, trembling,
The pages scanned in haste.
| "To silks and laee—one hundred."
"To squash, to fish, to ham—
I Payment received—and so forth "
"I've done my best. Yours, Sam."
Putting Hl* Pont in It.
I Miss Oldgal—My uncle has given me
i a handsome valentine every year since
I was a little girl. So sweetly scnti*
[ mental of him, don*t you think so?
Young Pokelong—Ynhs, and very
liberal, too. Thirty or forty valentines
at four or five dollars apiece
1 Miss Oldyal Slr-r-r-r-r-r!
A VALENTINE.
Oh, what have I t > offer, dear,
What gift or gr-eting fine,
This golden day of all the year,
Of good St. Valei tine?
Have you not all that life can lend
Full many a friend, and true?
What is the gift, I can send
To you?
But tills I send to you apart.
Via St. Valentine,
All willingly a loving heart—
This woman hear* of mine.
Oh, hold it safely, without fern,
Be sure that it Is true,
And does the gift bring joy most dear
To you?

They knew she was dying—the faded
little woman in the faded little bed
room. She had clung to life as long
as she couid, hoping for nu answer to
that wistful prayer in her eyes. But
the struggle was almost over now; the
wistful eyes were growing dim.
"See! I've got something for ye,
Liddy!" The little circle of spinster re
latives and kindly neighbors parted,
and good Uncle Silas Peterson came
wheezing to the bedside, the snow still
clinging to his rough overcoat. He
carried a letter in his hand—a coarse
and dirty envelope addressed in the
:*rude, sprawling penmanship of a man
whom neither life nor education had
ripened or refined.
"It's from Orson—Orson, you know,"
Uncle Silas added, bending over the
couch and addressing the dying worn
in with the tender directness onjfcises
io eliildreu—and death. '
'Orson?" A smile flashed over the
ashen face, and the woman lifted a
feeble hand for the letter. She kissed
it and tucked it under the thin shawl
that some loving hand had wrapped
>ver lier shoulders.
"Shan't 1 open It for ye, Liddy?" j
asked one of the women.
The dying eyes said "No."
"She thinks it's a valentine from her
husband," whispered one of the neigh
bors. 'To-day is Valentine Day, you
know. Last year I remember her tell
ing me how she wished Orson would
send her a valentine—just some little
thing to show her that he loved her
the way lie did when they were first
married."
"Most likely it's a note sayin' he'll
stay over night and see the races on
flic ice, to-morrow," was the guarded
reply.
The dying woman folded her shawl
tightly around the precious letter. A
look of perfect peace lighted her face.
"He does love me," she whispered,
"just as he used to!"
Uncle Silas turned away to wipe the
mist from his spectacles. There was a
little fluttering sign from the bed.
, "Liddy" had gone home.
| When they drew the old shawl from
| her shoulders, there, tight pfessed
against her heart by both thin, blue
veined hands, was Orson's crumpled,
! dirty letter. They were scarcely able
to take it away from her slender, cling
ing fingers.
j "Shall ye open it?" asked Miss Pen
niman. The women looked furtively
at one another, their curiosity struggl
ing with their reverence.
"No," said Miss Daggett, at last.
"It's hers—sacred. No matter what it
say*. She died thinkin' it was a val
entine. Let's burn it up, so uobody
will ever know."
The ashes of the unread letter flut
tered white about the stove for a few
minutes, and then wlrled up the chim
ney, as a gust of February wind roared
over the house. And the little, worn
out. heart-hungry woman lay smiling,
as death had found her.

He being witty, ever bright,
Bethought him to surprise his love,
And said he'd send no trifle light
With scrapof verse and painted dove.
Nay, nay: he'd quite another scheme,
He said, with sly, mysterious laugh;
And then he sent unto the maid
His latest photograph.
It gave the maidon no surprise;
She thought the little joke was
prime—
The token that he thought more wise
Than painted dove and halting rhyme;
And, taking paper, pen and ink,

And thanked him very kindly for
the comic valentine.

It was the deathnote of his passion.
rWAS SHEER LUCK.
When the great pink diamond of
Guznee reached Europe it created
widespread interes" and took immedi
ate rank with the historical stones of
the world. It was compared with the
finest gems in the royal and imperial
regalia, savants wrote learned disqui
sitions upon its beauties, and the mnga
zines and uewsp: pers spoke of its
value in away that made one's mouth
water.
Among others whose envy was
aroused by the descriptions of the
stone was a Mr. Lamoroek. a gentle
man who had passed under many
aliases in his career and who had only |
recently been released from Portland.
As he rend of the great diamond
his eyes sparkled at the thought of
its worth. There it was—ssoo,ooo--
nnd you could put it in your waistcoat
pocket.
The ex-convict, as he over
the subject, knew the task was not an
easy one.
Without more ado he wrote a short
note to Congleton & Co. the celebrated
diamond merchant of Hatton Garden,
asking them if they would care to buy
some old fancy jewels, and received
a reply expressing their willingness to
inspect them. After studiously exam
ining the caligrapi.y of their letter with
a magnifying lens he set himself to
practicing a number of curves and
flourishes on a sheet of paper. An
hour's work seemed to satisfy him,
and he then indited the following
epistle:
"Hntton Garden. Jan. 4, ISOG.
"Messrs Konsfield Brothers.
"Dear Sirs: As a client of ours de
sires to inspect your pink diamond
known as The Light of Guznee,' with
a view to purchase, we should feel
obliged if you would send it to us.
Our Mr. Lamoroek will call upon you
a few hours after you receive this
letter, and will bear n note vouching
for his identity. We shall be happy
to undertake all risk and responsibil
ity for the stone from the time it is
intrusted to the custody of our repre
sentative, and we beg to remain yours
faithfully. "Congleton & Co."
When this production of his pen and
brain had been carefully scrutinized,
|he composed another short letter,
which stated that the bearer was Mr.
Lamoroek. the representative of Cong
leton & Co.. He then went out and
bought half a dozen cigars, four of
which he steamed open and unrolled,
j Smearing the interior portion over
with a dark, treacly liquid, be rolled
them up again with expert Angers
and put them into his case,
j The first letter he had written be
sent by registered post, going down to
Bristol by the same train that took
the mail. But on his arrival there be
waited for three hours so as to allow of
, it being delivered before calling. He
I then went to their office and presented
his credentials, the genuineness of
which were not for a moment suspect
: ed.
The Bristol firm thought It safe that
the Rtone should be under the custody
of their own representative, and de
termined that one of their partners
yotire Harry Bonsfield. ac
company Lamoroek up to London, tak
lug it with him.
They had just seated themselves
comfortably and the train was already
In motion, when an elderly gentleman
with a jovial red face and black bushy
whiskers opened the door and bundled
himself in.
After the lapse of a quarter of an
hour he had talked their reserve away,
and proved himself so amusing a com
panion that iney all became quite
friendly, and Lamoroek, who had
grown suddenly amiable, pressed the
others into accepting a cigar apiece.
The Jolly-faced intruder was not to
be outdone in hospitality. lie opened
his hand-bag and with a merry wink
produced a flask of curacoa, which the
intense cold made particularly accept
able to them all.
Lamoroek, indeed, found the liquor
so delicious that he took two glasses.
Before they got half through their
cigars he noticed with suspicion that
the conversation began to slacken, and
that his companions showed a disposi
tion to go to sleep.
Bonsfield was the first to succumb to
somnolence, and Lamoroek even began
to feel sleepy himself.
The intruder also began to look as if
he would soon follow Bonsficld's ex
ample. He vainly tried to look wide
awake, but his lids would droop heavi
ly, his heaci would sink down upon
his chin and lie would then pull him
self together by a supreme effort and
try to sit up straight.
When the train arrived at Swindon
Junction the guard discovered them all
asleep, and .after trying in vain to
rouse them up, the conviction dawned
upon him that it was a case of foul
play. The three patients were taken
out and removed to the hospital, ar
rangements being made by the police
that on their recovery all three should
be detained in custody pending inves
tigation.s
Harry .Bonsfield easily established
his identity, and was set at liberty,
but the information that the police
obtained about his companions, the
revolvers they found in both their
overcoats, two telltale cigars and two
equally damning cigar stumps, the
remnants of curacoa in the flask and
a very suspicious false beard, all these
Incidents led to their arrest, trial and
subsequent conviction.
Scotland yard keeps the flask as a
curiosity, for it has two compartments
from which the contents can be drawn
at the will of the owner by a slight
pressure on a secret spring. Both
compartments contained curacoa; but
what was left of one sample was
found to be drugged while the other
was pure.
The jovial gentleman, like Lam
oroek. had had his imagination lived
by the accounts that the newspapers
gave of the great pink diamond. He
had wormed it put of a clerk in Messrs
Bonsfleld's office that the junior part
ner was taking it up to town, and he
thought that the opportunity for which
he had waited so long hail at length
arrived.
When the whole facts were revealed
in the police court, the natural aston
ishment of Lamoroek and the jolly
gentleman was past description. It
beat even that of Harry Bonsfield. All
the three actors in this scene are now
firmly convinced that one of the In
calculable elements controlling man's
destiny is sheer luck.

If you want to be -well, see to it that your Kidneys and Blood are in a
healthy condition. It is au easy matter to learn what state your Kidneys are in.
Place some of your urine in a bottle or tumbler, and leave it stand one day and
night. A sediment at the bottom shows that you have a dangerous Kidney
disease. Pains in the small of the back indicate the same thing. So does a
desire to pass water often, particularly at night, and a scalding pain in urinating
