BETTERING THE GRADES.
Work on the new road to avoid
the hills at the Bauer place in Ding
nian township is progressing fitioly
under the supervision of Honry
Canne. A number of mon and
teams have boon busy this week,
and it is now in a passable shape,
The part changed is about 700 feet
in length and the grado is 14 foot.
This veryjomniemlable enterprise
to begin the work of avoiding the
bad hills which are wholly unneces
sary and an be shunned or gradod
down with very little labor and ex
pense. If animals could expostu
late with their owners for being
compelled to lug heavy loads up
those hills the air in some sections
would be resonant with horse talk,
and thoir drivor could not say them
nay. The continuation of such
waste of horse flesh, exponse of
hauling because of reduced loads
and general inconvenience sooi
unwise and foolish and we hopo tho
example which has been sot on this
end of the road will extend its good
influence until a radical change is
effected. There is no noed for argu
ment in this matter, the good re
sults are too patent and everybody
acknowledges the fact, then why
not make a trifling sacrifice and all
pull together in accomplishing what
all concode ought to be done ?
TURKEY AND GREECE.
The Greeks appear to be disheart
ened and demoralized, and the un
speakable Turk with his great ad
vantage in numbers is crushing
back the armies of that patriotic lit
tle nation. The powers have not
intervened they probably foresaw
at the beginning what the result
would be, and after Turkey subdues
Greece and demands her reward,
they may conclude she is asking too
much, and embrace that as an op
portunity to carve her up, snapping
and snarling at each other in the
meantime as they gobble up the
morsels It will be more than a
wonder if in the end they do ;iot
come to blows, and very little sym
pathy would be wasted if they do.
If only Greece was strong enough to
dictate to them all America would
rejoice.
A Pike county patron of the Coal
Gazette writes thut "Hurt U in it,"
just as this journal has suid more
tluin once. There is a suggestion
that Pike will be heard from in the
near future, when the troubled
Democrats of this district assemble
to straighten out the tangled threads
of rotation, representation, nomina
tions and other local political and
liplnmatio matters. Carbon and
Monroe may yet find more than a
match in rocky Pike. Tho Pike
countian can bo a very stubborn
man, and his familiarity with the
war tactics of bears, catamounts,
copperheads, and rattlesnakes en
ables him to put up a very nasty
fight when he considers it time to
fight. Keep your optio on Pike,
Messieurs Democrats in tho other
counties of the district. Coal Ua
Kitte. The streams were litirnlly lined
with trout fishermen May 1st, the
day the season oiicned. Many fish
were caught but tho average was
small in size and numbers yet some
were well rewarded. Leo PoillUm
killed 12 pounds of fine fish in the
fnvnoon and several others brought
in smaller catches. The rain of
Sunday raised the streams and
ended the sport for the present.
The rise of water in tho river also
interfered with sliadflshing and
gave the toothsome and frisky alosa
brief respite before gracing
the
frying pan.
Memorial Day this year falls on
Sunday, and under the law its ob
servance would occur- the day be
fore. In other States the rale is the
day after. The veterans of the G.
A. R. have asked the Legislature to
make the same regulation in regard
to Pennsylvania so that the celebra
tion may be uniform. There seems
to be no reason why this patriotic
impulse should not be complied
with.
A joint meeting of the Commis
sioners of Monroe and Pike counties
was held at Marshall's Creek Tues
day of this week to determine the
question of building a new iron
bridge across the stream at Bush
kill. We understand that it was
docidod to rebuild and a joint meet
ing will bo held in the near future
to award the contract, due notice of
the letting of which will be given.

Thit Schultz Resolution Again.
In a recent issue of the Gazette,
"Piko again rehashes his tirade
against the commissioners for pass
ing "a resolution to pay all proper
costs and charges in the prosecu
tion ot the case as soon as same can
be logally done," and reiterates his
previous assertion that tho resolu
tion was only a delusion and a snare
intended for election purposes,
passed in bad faith simply to cover
the retreat of those officials. Ho
cites, after considerable in tho way
of reflection on the commissioners
as to their avidity to spend the
money of tho county in payment of
their own wasted time, two in
stances to prove his assertion
First, that a Lackiyvaxen constable
who had served summons ? (We
suppose he means subpoenas,) on
witnesses to appear before the
grand jury in this case, made out
his bill which was " legally at
tested," and he says " legally pon
dered over," he is careful not to say
that it was ever presented to the
commissioners, but he does say in
substance, "it has never been paid
We are informed by tho clerk to the
commissioners that this statement is
false in fact, as no such bill has ever
been before tho board.
Again "Piko" says witnesses were
brought here from Shohola in the
same case, " bills legally made out
attested and presonted to the 'check
drawers and a strong appeal made
for payment," and that the county
still owes these witnesses thoir fees
We have the same authority for
saying that this statement is false
in toto. No such bills have boon
presented. The real animus of the
article js disclosed, however, in the
next arraingment. "Piko" went to
New York with tho Sheriff as
deputy to aid in bringiug Schultz
nere, who natt written he was anxi
ous w oomo, ana wnen tlie bin was
prtiseuted ha figured in it not at
3.50 but at J4.00 per dieui for four
clays. Ibis the "check drawers
thought rather steep considering the
met ux ne never oouia earn more
then common wages at home, and
by the advice of their attorney they
ueennea to donate any such amount
for his junket. This is the real
"colored gent" in " 1'iko's " wood

OPPOSING CIVIL SEEVICE BILL.
Probabilities That the Mwwnrs Will

lngr lllllPrlnon Hefnrm Measures,
(Special Correspondence.)
Harrlsburg. May 4. Notwithstanding
the frequent recesses and Junkets of
the legislature, an effort will be made
to force final adjournment about the
middle of June. It is understood that
a resolution fixing June 1 as the date
of linal adjournment will be Introduced
this week in the house, and that the
senate will amend this resolution ex
tending the time until June 20. It In
probable that a compromise date will
be agreed upon, as the disposition of
work suffers In proportion to the rise
of temperature. Heretofore the mem
bers during the Ions; spring days have
sought the shelter of the trees In Cap
itol park duiiii prosy debates, but
the destruction of the capltol and the
removal to Grace church will make
it necessary for the members to stick
to their posts, notwithstanding the
heat and discomforts that they are sure
to suffer. The experience of other years
seems to have no effect In pushing the
work of the legislature during the win
ter months.
There has been a good deal of po
litical backing and tilling over the re
form bills, to which the Republican
party Is pledged. At the opening of the
session It was announced that these
bills would be hurried to final passage,
but three months had passed away
before any serious consideration was
given them. Those who are lined up
as opponents of Senator Quay charge
that he was responsible for the failure
to redeem the party's pledges. He
came to HarriBburg to confer with his
lieutenants In the senate and house,
and It was then given out, with more or
less Bhow of authority, that certain
of these bills would be abandoned be
cause It was Impossible to Induce the
Quay men In the legislature to vote
for them. Just when the antl-Quayltes
were about to take advantage of the
situation and force the bills through
a conference of all the Quay leaders
was called to consider what was best
to be done under the circumstances
and It has been decided to push the
bills to final passage as rapidly as pos
sible, and while concessions will be
necessary to meet the views of the
opponents of the radical reforms pro
posed it Is believed that the more Im
portant measures will pass In prac
tlcally their original form.
Opposing tho Civil Service Iff 11.
There Is much hostility among the
practical politicians towards the civil
service bill, and the prospect now is
that this measure will be so changed
as to be civil service In name only,
The political assessment bill will be
modified so as to not affect the giving
of contributions for legitimate cam
palgn expenses, but will make arbi
trary levying and collection of assess
ments a misdemeanor. As to the poll
tax bill, there Is no opposition, because
It will relieve party organizations of
the great burden of paying taxes dur
ing important campaigns.
Since his return from the Grant mon
ernor Hastings has heartily" endorse!!
the proposition to furnish the National
Ouard with a dress uniform. During
recent years the soldiers of Pennsyl
vanla have won applause over and over
again on account of their fine discipline
and practical efficiency In all that con
stltutes the good soldier. There has
been a disposition to compel on all oc
caslona the wearing of a service un
form, and the result has been dissatis
faction among the guardsmen. They
feel that they suffer by comparison
with troops of other states on dress
parade. During the Beaver admlnlstra
tlon the present governor was adju
tant general, and he was Instrumental
In having passed a bill appropriating
7B,000 for a dress uniform. Owing to
the failure of the revenue bill that year
It was necessary for Governor Beaver to
veto the bill, and nothing has since
been done officially In the way of sup
plying a uniform for ceremonial
caBlons.
The Question of State Revenues,
The question of revenue for the state
Is one that Is giving the financiers In
the legislature much serious concern,
Up to this time the only bill that has
been agreed upon, and which Is being
pushed along, is the Elkln bill, taxing
direct Inheritances over $5,000 at the
rate of 2 per cent. It Is estimated by
the friends of this measure that It will
bring Into the treasury about 12,000,000,
but Representative Ward Bliss, of Del
aware county, contends that It will not
produce more than $600,000. He Is the
author of several revenue blllB, among
them one to tax beer, and Insists that
the legislature will have to do some
thing more in the way of raising reve
nue before adjournment. There Is pro
nounced opposition to any suggestion
that beer be taxed, and there are those
who say that the objection is the result
of campaign deals with the liquor ele
ment. Whether that be true or not.
it is very evident that no liquor legls
latlon of any importance will get
through this session. Under present
conditions at the state treasury the de
ficiency of revenue is at least $2,000,000,
and many worthy charities In the state
will have to be cut oft without a shlll
Ing unless more revenue Is provided
for this purpose.
A resolution has passed the legls
lature calling upon the governor to
designate May 16 as a legal holiday,
and he haa agreed to do so. This Is
the day on which the Washington
monument In Philadelphia will be un
veiled with imposing ceremonies.
Mora attention has been given to
politics and to factional differences at
this session of the legislature than at
any previous Bitting for many years.
starting with a bitter contest over
the election of a United States sena-
ator, the bitterness of factions has In
creased rather than diminished, and
unless the pending harmony schemes
are successful the outlook for Republi
can disruption during the approaching
state campaign is first class. There
are hints that Senator Quay Is more
than willing to make terms with the
Pittsburg and Philadelphia leaders of
the opposition. It is intimated that
even now negotiations are pending
looking to a new deal in state politics.
l r ut of the Pool Selling Kill.
Among the bills which went down
during the last week was one legalizing
the sale of pools upon race tracks of
agricultural societies. It was strongly
supported by promlnet turfmen of the
stale, and at one time Its pausage look
ed promising, but Governor Hauling
threw out a hint that the bill would
fall under the veto ax if It ever reached
blin. This settled its fate.

years The Record has been a standing.
Joke In the legislature. Properly pub
lished It would be a useful public doc
ument, but as the proceeding are ncvei
placed upon the desks of the legislator
until they are stale The Record might
Just as well be published at the close
of the session, or not at all.
Mr. Woodruff, of Philadelphia, has
Introduced a bill allowing Judges ol
the United Btates circuit court to com
mit Juvenile criminals to reformatories.
It Is understood to have the sanction
of Attorney General McKenna and
Judge Butler, of the United States
district court at Philadelphia. There Is
considerable prison legislation -on the
calendars of both houses, and an effort
will be made to pass certain bills which
have for their purpose the relieving
of the overcrowded penal Institutions
of the state through a system of parole.
Some Important changes to the phar
macy law arc proposed in bills which
are now pending In the house. The
most Important change Is the ellml
nation of a proviso authorising physl
clans registered under the act of 1SS1
to carry on the drug business and prac
tlce pharmacy, though they may com
pound and sell their own prescriptions
and patent medicines.
The governor has approved the Farr
bill to protect the American flag from
nsult and degradation. This bill had
the support of all the patriotic societies
of the Btate. It provides that any per
son who shall wilfully and maliciously
damage or destroy any flag of flag
staff on any private or public build
Ing, or use the flag for advertising
any business or trade, shall be guilty
of a felony, and upon conviction shall
pay a fine not exceeding $500 or suffer
Imprisonment not exceeding six
months, or both.
Prison For Female Convicts.
One of the prison reform bills, pre
pared by Francis J. Torrence, of Alle
gheny, a member of the state board ol
charities, provides that female con
victs from all the counties in the state,
sentenced to endure punishment by Im
prisonment in the penitentiary, shall
hereafter be Imprisoned In the West
ern penitentiary.
Owing to the Illness of Speaker Boy-
er, who has been threatened with pneu
monia, at his home In Philadelphia,
the committee to Investigate the $50,-
000 Insurance scandal has not yet been
appointed. It Is suspected that this In
vestigation will be allowed to fade
from memory, but the charges are so
specific that It, is difficult to Bee how
they can be Ignored. The main charge
Is that $50,000 was demanded by a
coterie of persons to clear from the
calendars of ' the legislature bills ob
jectionable to big Insurance companies.
Governor Hastings has reappomten
Insurance Commissioner Lambert and
the senate has confirmed that popular
official for three years more, dating
from May 1. When Colonel Lambert
was appointed In 1896 he was commis
sioned for the unexpired term of
George B. Luper, so that he will have
served at the end of his new commis
sion over five years.
This week the program prepared by
Professor Warren Powers Laird, the
architectural adviser of trie capltol
building commission, will be In the
hands of all arcltects who desire to en
ter the open competition for plans for
the new capltol. This competition will
be conducted with the greatest care,
Bo that there shall be no favoritism
when the award of the prize Is made.
Six distinguished architects have been
der that the very best talent in the
country shall be represented. These
six architects will be paid from $500 to
$1,000 each for expenses.
Senator Grady, a member of the sen
ate committee which has been Investi
gating the municipal affairs of Phila
delphia, has declined to sign the report
of the committee. This report has been
revised and revised again, and is still
unsatisfactory to one or two of the
members. Senator Grady says the re
port Is too voluminous.
Mr. Hosack's charges of bribery
against oleomargarine dealers In Pitts
burg have not' been sustained by the
investigation, and the report will prob
ably exonerate Frank M. Moore, the
special agent at Pittsburg of the dairy
and food commissioner.
Opposition to Trolley Extension.
No session of the house was held on
Friday, and the reason given was that
owing to the number of special com
mittees traveling through the state
there might not be a quorum. It leaked
out that the real reason was a scheme
to prevent the Introduction of a reso
lution to give the Young bill to enable
trolley companies to branch out into
the country a special order. The courtt
having decided that the objection of
single owner of abutting property could
stop a trolley company from laying Its
tracks on a rural highway, this bill
is intended to enable the companiei
to go ahend and let those opposed ap
peal to the courts for appointment ot
viewers to fix damages.
Up to this week the number of bills
Introduced In the house was 978; house
bills reported from house committees.
642; senate bills reported from house
committees, 117; total bills reported In
the house, 653; house bills passed and
sent to the senate for concurrence, 121;
house bills passed finally, 22; senate
bills passed finally by the house, 14;
senate bills remaining In the house,
176.
Representative Jefferls, of Chester
county, has Introduced a bill In the
house to do away with hanging. It
provides that In all cases where a per
son Is found guilty of murder In the
firBt degree the Jury may qualify the
verdict by adding thereto "without
capital punishment," and whenever the
jury shall return a verdict as afore
said, the person shall be sentenced to
Imprisonment at hard labor for life.
A bill has passed finally malting
Feb. 13 (Lincoln's birthday) a legal

Hints to Farmers.
Cutworms Easily DKSTitovri). I
plowed 12 acres of corn In April, in
early May it was literally covered
over with webs which at first I took
to be spider, but on closer examina
tion proved to le cutworms. These
were destroyed by tho harrow and
drag.commencing at 10 o'clock when
ground was dry. Hot sun, with
dry ground and vigorous use of the
harrow to make a good dust, forms
a thorough remedy for cutworms
if used when they make their ap
pearance on the small webs. Goiiif;
to the west side of it a few mornimr.
lator I could soo it was partialis
webbed airiiiii, when tho former op
eration W; s repeated. There wen
very few t,f my nei rhbors who did
not replant their corn j some even
the third time, but I lost only a fen
plants. This remedy f ir cutworms
has never failed with me. David

To Pukvknt Potato Scab. Soak
the soed for 1 hours in 15 gallons
of water, to which is added 2 oz of
oorrosive Bublimate (a 'deadly poi
son) previously dissolved in hot
water in an earthen basin. If the
solution is stronger or the tubors
are left in it much longer, it may
kill the eyes. A loss dangerous sub
stance, indeed ono that is non pji
sonous and harmless, is formalin,
oz of which dissolved in 15 gallons
of water should soak the seed two
hours. Formalin is sold at drug
stores, but some of them charge a
fancy price. Formalin can be had
at 50 cents per 1-pound bottle of tho
Kny-Schoeror Co. of 17 Park Place,
Now York city, N. Y. In largor
quantities it will bo somewhat
choaper, thus making a very cheap
mixture. Either solution kills all
germs of scab on the sood potatoes
Wide Tikes. There is no ques
tion but that at certain times in the
year the use of wide tires would in
jure the roads less than, narrow
ones j but if wide tires are to bo
come our maintainors of good roads
it must be through thoir genoral
adoption, which we don't look -for
soon. Probably the only way to
imposition of heavy fines upon users
of narrow tires, and we doubt
whether the farmers themselves
would look with favor upon such
ooorcive moasuro, or whether it
oould be enforced.
An application of 300 pounds of
sulphur per acre, in the furrows
with the soed, had no effect what
ever iu preventing potato scab in in
fosted soil at tho Massachusetts sta
tion.
United States butter cows produce
an estimated annual average of 130
pounds butter per oow. This is not
innoh more than half the yield that
should bo produced, and what are
we going to do about it?
Fifty hens on the farm, properly
handled, will pay bettor the year
through thau 200 in the same place
or roost. Quality rather then
quantity should be the rule.
Cutting off largo limbs is best don e
by first sawing a little on the under
side, so tliat when the limbs fall it
will not split the wood nor peel the
bark down tho trunk. The limb
should be cut off close to tho trunk.
Now is a good t mo to trim.
A plat of ground on which a
brush heap has been burned is an
excellent place to start plants for
late cabbage, as the weeds are not
liable to bother much here and the
ashes, mixed with the soil, cause the
plants to grow vigorously and strong
ly, providing that they have room
for best development, the plants
standing about an inch and a half
apart.
Some folks would labor on a ra
vine where ye couldn't raise
nothin', b' gosh, but blisters on yo'r
hands. Grandpa Wilkius.
Some farmers think that money
alone should bo counted to deter
mine whether a thing pays or not.
This is a great mistake. Fruit pays
even it we do not sell a dollar's
worth. It keeps down doctor bills
in the family.
Every hen on the farm should
slour at least (1.50 a year. How is
she to do it? The secret is hatch
her early, so she can commence to
lay early. If she lays early she will
sit early the next spring. She can
thus hatch several broods in the sea
son, and these chicks the surplus
together with the winter eggs,
will easily bring the profit up to
1.50 or more, after all cost of feed
has been deducted.
