Accept a Portfolio.

Bill
No In ttio Senate Johnson'
Indecent Speech Mills Wants a
Mlnlflter to Cnla Money nark
lint Does Not Tnlk.
Washington, Jan. 11th, Senator
Sherman will probably settle the
question of whether he is to bo
Secretary of State in the comma
administration, during the present
week, as he will, by special invita
tion, have a personnl conference
with Presidont-eloct McKinley at
Canton. Mr. Sherman's personnl
inclinations are not towards the
Cabinet, but he is prepared to do his
duty as a good Republican and ft pa
triotic citizen, and if it be the wish
of President McKinley and of the
Ohio Republicans, who have given
him such great political honors in
the past that he should accept a
cabinet portfolio, he will not aliow
his personal inclinations to stand in
the way. That he would make a
good Secretary of State is as certain
as that lie has made a good Sonator
and a good Secretary of the Trea
sury, and while his colleagues
would miss his experience and wis
dom in the Senate, the knowledge
that President McKinley and the
country would have the boneflt of
them would go far towards consoling
them for the loss.
Having heard what the parties
directly, interested had to say about
the new tariff bill, the Republicans
of the House Ways and Moans Com
uiittoe will this weok begin the
actual construction of tho bill. The
Democratic members of tho commit
tee had the privilege of attending the
hearings, and some of them availed
themselves of it, but the construction
of the bill will only bo participated
in by the Republican members
Chairman Dingloy has pointed out
the difference in this task and the
construction of tho McKinley bill in
1890, and it should not bo lost sight
of by those who are interested in
seeing the arduous task successfully
performed. In 1800 the Treasury
had a surplus which was growing
larger all the time, and the tariff
bill was intended to protect Amori
can products and manufactures, and
at the same time, to reduce the re
ceipts of the government. Now,
again reforring to Chairman Ding.
ley's words, the new tariff bill must
protest American products and
manufactures, and at tho same time
add from 150,000,000 to $75,000,000
a year to the Government rocoipts,
in ordor to provide for the deficit
made by the insufficiency of revenue
produced by the Democratic tariff
bill, which Mr. Cloveland denounced
as an outrage and refused to sign,
and which he now declares to bo a
good thing, notwithstanding all the
trouble it has brought to tho ooun
try.
The Loud bill depriving sample
copies of newspapers and books of
the right to bo sent through the
mail at pound rates was passed by
the House, and has now gone to the
Senate, whore its prospect of being
acted upon is far from bright. It
will bo fought hard and tima is got.

to-day disposed of by tho House, in

attack upon Mr. W. R. Hearst, pro

nor and the New York Journal, is
much regretted by all who heard it
Some of the language of Mr. John

it could not be printed in newspapers
which go through the mail without
a violation of law such language

It remained for Sonator Mills to
introduce a humorous pliaso to the
Cuban question. His resolution
upon which he made a speech to-day
in his usual style ho works harder
than a black-smith when he makes

ought to be free and declaring that
this Country recognizes its independ

act in harmony with Congress, pro.

United States Minister to Cuba and
appropriates $10,000 to pa his salary
and expenses. The idea of appoint
ing a minister to a country which as
yet has neither government, accord
ing to the common American com
ception of government, nor a capital
is regarded as about the choicest tid

OUR MUDDY STREETS.
Our Priuclple Streets are in a Deplorable
Condition They Should He Paved.
The business streets of our village
are in their accustomed disreputa
ble condition. Pike streot.the main
business street, was a long broad
mud puddle a few days ago and now
it is about as rough and hubby as
possible. Men have beon occupied
in shovelling the mud from the cross
walks so that they might be passable.
Ours is a great system We hire
men to cart dirt upon the streets in
the spring then we have sprinklers
to make mud of the dust in the sum
mer.. In the autumn we employ
men to scrape the mud out of the
gutters and remove it and in the
winter and muddy season we have
the whole force of street laborers at
work vainly endeavoring to keep
the cross-walks clean. Did you
ever hoar of anything more ridicu
lous ?
We were in Middlotown yesterday
and we could not help noticing how
cloan and dry were the principle
business streets of that city.
It costs considerable to pave
streets, but the benefit is permanent
and highly satisfactory.
The abovo clipjied from a Port
Jervis papor is so apropos of our
system in Milford that it might well
have been written on our stroots,
only, we never have men here em
ployed by the Borough to cloan off
the crossings. One set of council
men put down crossings and then
cover them up with gravel, which
is soon mud, and it is made or stay
on the other side.

A PORT JERVIS MYSTERY.
Mar Be a Murder or a Suicide If the For
mer Then Bobbery Was the Motive.
Port Jervis, last Friday, was
aroused to find that a murder had
been committed during the night
before just on her borders. Will
iam Spoidle a young man who
formerly worked for Mr. Laux near
Trl States had been over in Mata
moras on Thursday arranging for
his wedding which was to have
taken place next day. Ho loft the
house of his affianced early in the
evening and was afterwards seen
and talked to by several in Port Jer
vis. Evidently he started East on the
railroad track possibly to go to the
house of his former employer, and
the next morning at an early hour
his body was found by a tramp,
lying between the track and river.
The tramp gave an alarm and the
body was subsequently removed to
an undertaking establishment and
an autopsy performed. This dis
closed that Speidle had died of
strangulation, a pofket handerchiof
being found stuffed down his throat
His pockets had also been turned
showing that the body hod been
robbed. Speidle was an industri
ous, sober young man and probably
had in the opinion of his assailants
quite a sum of money in his posses
sion. His watch and ring had been
left with his Intended bride. The
tramp who discovered the body
claimed to be a printer from Buck's
county this state, He was arrestol
examined and subsequently dis
charged as there seemed to be no
evidence incriminating him and his
story of his whereabouts and man
ner of finding the dead body was
coherent and apparently truthful.
The spot where the discovery was
made seems to be a tramp rendezvous
and the theory is that the murder
was committed by one or more of
thesa vagabonds.
The suicide theory is also advanced
from tho fact that a bottle contain
ing chloroform, purchased the pre
vious evening, at Soirees pharmacy,
was found near Speidle's body. The
physicians however adhere to the
idea of strangulation, but the Coro
ner who has empannellod a jury
thinks the case suicide. A tramp
has been arrested at Rutherford.

the matter and he has been commit
ted to await investigation.

tality Glowingly Describ ed.
Pickerel Fishing, Getting Lost and Danc
ing Vividly Described A Sportsmnn's
Entertaining Acconnt of his
Pleasures Notes of tbe Events.
(Special Correspondence to t he Press.)
On Friday last, about 6 o'clock a.
m., a party of three left Dintrmans
with the intention of spending a few
days pickerel fishing at Porter's
Lake.
The journey was accomplished
without event and in .good time,
considering the condition of the
road. On arrival there was found
to be no less than a dozen would-be-fishermen
already in possession,
among them being a party of seven
from Bushkill, who has arrived the
day previous.
Most of the " good places " were
of course occupied, but, not to be
discouraged by such trifles, our tilts
were set out and fishing commenced
in dead earnest until we heard that
a shooting match was to be held
that afternoon and that a prize of a
plump turkey was offered to the
man making the best shot. Then, of
course, all interest in fishing ceased
for tho time being, and the atten
tion of the entire party was occupied
in borrowing guns and cartridges.
One of our friends from Dingmans
happened to bo lucky enough to
capture tho feathered prize. The
next thing in tho programmo was a
dance which was to be held that
evening at tho hotel. One of the
party remarked : " Why where are
all the people coming from ?"
Well, if yo-.. cr want to attend a
dance whero t ro is lots of people
and lots of i m, Porter's Lake is
just the place ! go to. It was really
surprising win ,:o all tho people
came from considering how sparcely
the country is settled in that vicin
ity, but it matters not where they
are from, thoy were there just
tho sarao, and a jolly good
crowd they wore. Between twenty
and twenty-fivladics, more than
twice as numy gontlomen. consti
tuted the party.
As most of the participants lived
at a considerable distance, and did
not arrive until rather late, the
dancing did not commence until
about 9 o'clock, but when the vio
linist took his seat and began to
play, thore was a general rush for
the ball room.
The only scarce articles about the
place were shoes, and they were so
scarce that some of the party were
compelled to dance in thoir rubbe r
boots, notwithstanding the fact that
several gentlemen who did not
dance, whore kind enough to loan
their shoes to those who did.
Everything moved along nicely,
the ball room was continually
crowded, and everybody seemed to
be enjoying themselves. At 12
o'clock an oyster supper was served
to the entire party by our genial
host, Frank Van Why, after which
the dancing was again resumed, and
continued until tho " wee sma
hours.
The next morning there soemed to
be a general indisposition to early
rising. Strange ! but thore is a
rumor cfloat that on the evening
previous, some of the party had at
tended a dance in tho vicinity of
Dingmans, so had had very little
sleep for two days and were there,
foro, naturally tired.
Saturday was a fine day for
fishing, and the luck seemed to be
with us. The Dingmans party
bagged 24 of the finest pickerel that
were ever caught through the ice
They averaged over two pounds each,
among them was one that tipped the
scales at exactly five pounds.
In the afterinxm, two of the party
thought they would walk to Brain
mill dam, and try their luck there,
so they gathered together a few
tilts, some baits and an axo, and
started through tho woods to make
a short cut for tho road. After
walking around through tho brush
for more than an hour, thoy began
to think that tho road was farther
from tholuke than they had antici
pated, when suddenly they came to
an open space and discovered that
they were at the upper end of the
lake, less than a quarter of a mile
from whore th'ty had started. ' The
man who piloted that expedition, is
open for all engagements as guido.to
hunting parties, wishing to go any.
whero in Porter township, as. he
has travelled all through that sec
t,m of the county many times, and
thorofore could not possibly lose his
woy.
Our friends from Bushkill are go
ing to have a song patented, which
one of thoir party composed while
fishing on the lake. The chorus of
tho song, portrays in glowing col
ors, the advantagos.and pleasures, of
fishing through the ice
Porter's Lake has now, what it
has long stood in need of, that is, a
good landlord, who knows how to
treat his guosts.and who takes into
consideration the fact, that the
bracing air in that vicinity, has the
ability of stimulating a prodigous
appetite, even in one who is under
ordinary circumstances, a small
eater, therefore, we have no hesita
tion whatever, in recommending the
place, not only as a good place to
fish, (and catch fish,) but also as a
place where it is entirely unneces
sary to have a magnifying glass in
order to find sufficient food to sus
tain the wants of a hungry fisher
man. The accommodations are exoel
lent,the entire house has been newly
furnished throughout, with good
roomy, comfortable beds and every
thing that could add to the comfort
and pleasure of those who go there
is to be found.
In closing we again repeat, that
Porter's Lake is the best place we
know of, for a few davs' recreation
to cak-h lots of fish, get plenty to
eat, and have a good time, what
more could anybody wish for ?
