Great Tact Required In Crowds Which Bring All Classes Together. The behavior of people in crowds would make an interesting study of itself. In an ordinary crowd the ma jority are apt to be unacquainted with any formal etiquette, and the rest seem to forget all they ever knew; only those who are possessed of na tural politeness and unfailing good na ture are saved from becoming savages under such circumsthces. Of course it is unpleasant for people or refined nature to be brought into very close contact with the ruder populace, and it very frequently happens that the very ones who have had most training in courtesy are the most disagreeable \tfhen in the midst of a crowd. The nerves pf the common people are less easily disturbed, and the physical dis comforts common to crowds are not greater than tliey are accustomed to in ordinary daily life. Unless you can be sure of bearing yourself with courtesy and good humor, you should avoid crowds for your own sake as well as out of consideration for others. If. from choice or necessity, you flock with birds that arc not all of your own fine feather, your aim should be to respect the rights of others without relinquishing your own. You are not a door mat. to allow yourself to be trampled upon without remonstrance; nor yet a cur, to snarl and snap at those who, perhaps, through no fault of their own, encroach upon you too closely. Even in the highest circles people are apt to lose their heads, to say nothing of their lieu its. when massed in large numbers, as witness the frays that are reported to take place among the fair "gentlewomen" who attend the queen's drawing room. The congregation of St. Patrick's church at Audenriod has decided to build a handsome edifice at McAdoo. The Audenriod church had to be aban doned owing to the settling of tho ground ou which it was built. WITH THE LAW-MAKERS. NOTES AND COMMENTS FROM THE PENNSYLVANIA CAPITAL. All Hope of Electing u United States Senator at Thin Session of the LKlH lature Has lleen Given Up—Some of the Bills Which Have Been Signed. Harrisburg, Pa., April 14, 1890. Pennsylvania's general assembly has not yet agreed upon a scheme that will produce sufficient revenue to cover the deficiency of nearly four millions dollars in the state treasury, complete the eapi tol building and meet the ordinary ■ expenses of the state government for the next two fiscal years. The common wealth is practically bankrupt, and unless the present legislature provides the means by which the state revenues will he increased, the private charities, hospitals and universities will receive no aid from the state. Governor Stone has served notice on the legislators that he wants the de ficiency wiped out, and that he will not sign away a single cent in excess of the estimated state revenues for the next two years. The appropriation bills for private charities are held hack by the house committee until the rev enue hills have gone to the executive. Chairman Ilosack, of the ways and means committee, says that before the session ends the legislature will have passed hills providing for sufficient revenue for the state's ordinary ex penses, charities, schools and all other objects including the nearly four million deficit and the completion of thecapitol building. Quito a number of bills have reached the governor. So far ahont twenty-five measures have received his approval, and NONE 11AVK BEEN VETOED. The seven months' school term hill re ceived his approval, and also the follow ing: To validate deeds and acknowledg ments of certain justices of the peace holding office do facto and not do jure. To establish a board for the exam ination of accountants and providing for granting certificates. To enable city, borough, township and other tax collectors to collect taxes for the payment of which they have become personally liable. The act relating to the annexation of land by boroughs; the act providing that constables' foes shall be paid by counties; the act requiring amendments to pamphlet laws to be printed in differ ent type. The bills requiring written notice to be served upon county commissioners of the time and place of holding any view, review or re-review for a public road; repealing certain local road laws; providing for maintenance of good order at agricultural fairs. In addition to signing the above bills Governor Stone AFFIXED IIIH SIGNATURE to these resolutions: Authorizing the appointment of eight members and five senators to represent the legislature at the unveiling of the Grant monument in Fairinount park, Philadelphia, on April 27, without any cost to the state; authorizing the appointment of two senators and three members to confer with similar committee* from other states with a view of amcndfng the federal constitution to bring about the election of president, vice president and United States senators by a direct vote of the people; instructing the capitol building commission to furnish in the state house a suitable reception room for lady visitors; presenting to Lieuten ant Colonel James E. Harnett, of %ho Tenth Pennsylvania, the desk and chair used by him as deputy secretary of the commonwealth. There are yet a number of bills in the executive's hands for his disposal. Among the lot is the measure increasing the number of employes about the legis lature. THE SENATORIAL SITUATION remains the same and notwithstanding the rumors it is not likely that any agreement will be reached by the war ring element in the Republican party. It is now pretty certain that Quay will not withdraw from tho contest and otherwise an election cannot bu made. The session lias only about a week to run and all factions are as firm as ever The independent Republicans, although united, changed their vote daily during tho week to as many candidates whom they previously supported with scattered votes. The other Republicans and Democrats continued to vote for Quay and Jenks. The bribery investigating committee, which was to have made its report to the house the later part of tho week, lias been granted further time. The committee secured considerable evidence during its session last week. Repre sentative Wilson, of Westmoreland county, testified that lie was offered $5,000 to change his vote from Huff to Quay. Senator Mitchell lias introduced a bill in the senate which provides for the inspection of uieat and creating the office of meat, inspector in each county where there is a storage warehouse for the storage of meat, and all meat killed FREELAND, PA., MONDAY, APRIL 17, 1599. outside of tho state shall be inspected, and if found diseased shall be condemned. A petition lias been in circulation during the past few days by tho friends of Senator Snyder, of Chester county, for signatures to insure his election as president pro tein of tho senate until the beginning of the next term. Nlssley. Burgerin .Sign* Orders. From the Sbciiuudoah Herald. A legal opinion of inucb interest to boroughs throughout the state lias just been submitted to the town council of Sbamokin, by the borough solicitor, relative to the question whether the chief burgess or president of council has the power to sign orders and warrants passed by council. There lias been a contention oyer the matter in that town for some months, and orders have been hold up pending a decision in the matter. The solicitor, after quoting the law defining the duties of a chief burgess and referring to other laws pertaining to the subject at issue, and a decision by the courts and a resolution adopted by the Sbamokin council giving the power to the burgess, gave it as liis opinion that the duty devolved upon the burgess. He was asked to define the powers of the president, and in reply read the law, which plainly and only states that it is his duty to preside at meetings. This opinion is important, inasmuch as the president of councils in -all bor oughs In tills county sign orders and resolutions adopted by these bodies, and the burgess only exercises tiie veto powfer In reference to adoption of ordi nances and resolutions. DumugeM Burred l>y Negligence. People who drive over highways and walk the streets should bear in mind that where there is contributory negli gence to an accident, there can bo no recovery from the public authorities or owners of defective property. A de cision of the supreme court, to whom a Luzerne county caso was appealed, so decides. On tho night of February 32,1897, Ed ward Bailey was killed by being precipi tated over an embankment in Trout Run Narrows, this county. It was raining, the night was dark, and the road was well known to bo in a danger ous condition. Ho was in a buggy, lead ing two horses that followed behind. The halter straps of the horses were fastened about Bailey's body, and when the animals fell over tho precipice he was dragged with them to Iris death. Action for damages was instituted by his relatives against the township, and a verdict for $2,000 was given the plain tiffs. In an appeal, however, the supreme court ruled that Bailey had negligently contributed to his death, and for that reason no damages could bo recovered. Centrul'H Grievance!! .Settled. The secret session held by the Brotherhood men at Mauch Chunk, whereby the men complained of unjust discrimination and grievances on the Central has had its usual effect. W. \V. Wentz, superintendent of the Lehigh and Susquehanna divisions, had, so it was alleged, behaved in an arbitrary and unjust manner to the men. The trouble hinged, too, upon an arbitrary rule. Tho railroad men were obliged to commit the rules of the road to memory, and tills was a big bone of contention. The company has promised tho men redress and will abolish what was con sidered unjust and unfair. A strike was narrowly averted. It, Is generally understood the men got all they asked for, and things will go smoothly in the future on the Lehigh and Susquehanna divisions. Collegium! I'lay Gooil Bull. Villanovu college base ball club went up against the National leugue Phillies, on Thursday. Tho latter won by a score of 11 to 5. The college boys were contended by tho citv papers for the fine showing made against the leaguers. The local players of Villanova club made tho following records: Boner, 2b, two runs, two hits, one put out and two assists. Broderiek, ss, two put outs and three assists. McFadden, p, one put out, two assists and one error. Tho Phillies had ten hits off McFadden. Villanova had twelve. "Barney'"struck out one man, gave twelve liases on balls and hit one man. Tho game was the first played this year by the collegians and was awaited with interest by their local admirers.

Orchid Tea. Of course, every one is aware that under the name of "tea" we often drink a beverage which lias no acquaint a nee with oe real leaf. Rut there are several "teas" which are not fraudul ent manufactures, though they are not made of the leaves. In Mauritius, for instance, they make tea of the leaves of an orchid. In Peru thev d'-'uk mate, a tea mauo from a nat v? species of holly. The Abyssiniaus make a tea from the leaves of the entlia edulis, which lias such stimulating qualities that cVcu a leaf or two of it chewed has all the reviving effects of "the cup that cheers," and thus Is most valuable to travelers. The Tasiiiauiaus are said to he the happy possessors of no less than a hundred substitutes for tea; while the Tonkinese have teas of tlieir own made of berries, leaves, woods and bark of trees. In Sumatra coffee leaves are infused in the tea pot. and the result is said to be an excellent beverage. Denomination. The Philadelphia Record tells of an old Pennsylvania fanner who recently came into possession of a check for S2OO. It caused ldm a great deal of anxiety, and for a long time he could not muster up courage to have it cash ed. Finally on a trip to town, ho sum moned up nerve enough, and. strolling into tiie bank, presented the check. The teller glanced at it hastily, ami then, after the fashion of his kind, brusquely asked: "What denomina tion V" "Lutheran, gol durn it! Rut what's that got tew do with it V" as brusquely replied the old farmer, to tin* great astonishment of the hank official. It required several minutes' explanation before the teller could get tie old man to understand his ques tion. ami then the latter look ids j money and departed, with sundry 1 growls derogatory to banks in gcuerui.
