May 18.—Since the conclusion of the Boyle trials, Judge A. \V. Williams has received many letters of a threatening nature, although he has hitherto paid but little attention to them. IHPISE St HULL "The cases reported have all been mild, in fact the patients are reported as being up and around, apparently inconvenienced more by the restrictions placed upon them by the authorities than by the disease. Two new patients are reported this week, but whether from small pox or tion seems to be a question. "Of course, it i* just and proper to take all precautions in these matters, but there is no use making a useless scare out of it, and from all indications Eld red is just as free from any danger of the .disease as a town a score of miles away.

A bit; scare head on a Jamestown paper says: 'Small pox at Kldred Dance/ the Punxsutawney papers reported the whole town under quarantine, while Buffalo and neighboring papers gave the impression that this borough is infested with the disease and leads many to think that It is dangerous to stop in town.

Further, Mr. Clark stated the receipts of the street railway in Punxsutawney had fallen off considerably, but even at that they were nearly double the earnings of the Indthnn line. He gave as his reason that more money was in circulation in the Jefferson County town, and that the residents in Ihe rural districts patronized the road rather than using the horse and buggy.—Indiana Gazette.

By United Press. ST. PETERSBURG, May 18.-— Yielding to the insistent demand of a large part of the Russian public, the Czar today ordered the release from the Portress Peter and Paul of Admiral Nebogatoff and Gcnerda Stoessel, who were undergoing life imprisonment.STRIKE MAY BE GENERAL \la> Ite-ninc Maiden Name and Keniari >—Custody of Children I'art of Tlm«\ Mearitlme, Newlands has come In with the suggestion that n government tribunal be created to keep the people posted on all price's, manufacturing, wholesale and* retail. The question whether these apparently exorbitant profits are what the> seem promises to be 1ho subject ol much discussion hereafter. Senators Gore and M< Lnurin. iinimii; others, have already made vigorous defense of the retailers, declaring that they are being used by the trusts ;is a shield to ward off public condemnation and that, all expenses considi red. the profits of the little dealers are not excessive. Tillman had devoted considerable time to reasearch in the realm of cotfee, which is on the free list When it conies In it costs from 7 to 9 cents a pound, and when it has been roasted and passed to the consumer it has trebled In value. Smoot trailed In with the sad story of the razor. The manufacturer sells it at $ Jt. 9 r» a dozen, the wholesale dealer at $t» and the retailer at $- apiece, or $£4 a dozen. "Ladies' gloves, averred the Utah statesman, cost tie dealer $7.40 a dozen and are sold to feminine bargain hunters at p< • pair or -fi!4 a dozen. Tlem there is the history of the little pane of glass. Smoot had it looked np in New York. The pane costs the importer I cents, duty paid; the picture frame man charges 2"» cents. Flint next contributed the 100-plece French dinner set that costs the Importer, dut> paid, $10.NU and is sold to the guileless ultimate consumer in Washington for $30. Also the cut little Japanese tea set that comes in at a valuation of 4 1 cents, and is sold for $3.50. Along, then, came Sena'or Scott, glass manufacturer, of West Virginia, with his industrial exhibit. "This glass pitcher, fellow Senators." he said, "is sold by tie manufacturer at 1»0 cents a dozen. Tho retailer sells it at 10 to no cents for a single pitcher." Somebody with a mathematical mind figured that in changing hands the pitchers rose from 90 cents to $4.SO a dozen and that the tariff on glass pitchers was a fly-spt ck compared with tho huge profits of the dealers. Lodge then called attention to the fact that tea. which Is on the free list, jumped mysteriously from a cost price o* ifi cent* to the Jobber in New YoTl^ to 00 cents a pound when Mr. Householder doslres to take a little of it home to tlie family. The self-same tea is sold in Canada at 10 cents a pound, which ciphers out that the American consumer is stung 50 per cent worse than his Canadian brofher.The advocates of protected lumber were the discoverer* of that line of reasoning. They found that associations of retail lumber dealers in widely separated states sold lumber at prices fixed by schedules that were alike in every detail. It made no difference whether the Wholesale price of lumber rose or fell, the retail places were as immovable as Cibraltar. Tho point in this argument was that the amount of the duty made no difference to the consumer. The tariff was shallowed up in the profits of the middlemen, and the unfortunate consumer would pay the same under a high or low tariff. Hut low tariff, it was claimed, would put the manufacturer out of business. IThHihI I'rcsM CorrixponiJenci' WASH IN'C'I'i IX, 1) (•„ May IS.— A novel 1'eaMire .if lli.

By United Press. AKRON, O.. May 18.—A strictly "fireproof" building burned to the ground here today, with n loss of one million dollars. hotel wag owned by Cash Smothers, formerly of Stanton. Jefferson County, and Thomas Peach, who were joint proprietors. The loss will reach $1S,000, with $12,000 Insurance. It is understood that the hotel will be rebuilt nt once. Many people believe that the real Contnued on Pafe Two. Miss eKarns takes the part of a coy maiden who objects to being "kissed, and during the DuBois production It was not only in the play that way, but It was real on the part of Miss Kearns. Last night, while Redfoot was going through his mock efforts to kiss Serena she accidentally turned to courtesy to the audience and received a rousing smack right where It would do the most good. The crowd, realizing that a most dellclods accident had happened, applauded, the pair came back andl blushed through another encore, but got away with it artistically.This pair Irvin Blakeslcc, as Said Pasha, had the principal role, which he gave a fine reading, but on account of throat trouble was unable to sing effectually. In the acting parts of the more serious vein, James J. Mack, as the Rajah of India, had no rivals. Mr. Mack, in voice, figure, interpretation and conception of the part, is timber for bigger things than amateur theatricals, and the audience gave him a big hand for his splendid work. The fun features were in the hands of Walter P. O'Hern as Hadad, an adventurer, and Peter V. Daley as Nockey, his bodyguard. This pair of misfits, the former a giant and the latter a midget, by comparison, handed out the best line of amateur comedy ever heard in the Jefferson Theater, the climax being O'Hern's interpretation of an Italian organ grinder, with Daley imperson- ating the monkey. Messrs. Redfoot, O'Hern and Lancey. punsters had the audience on its risibilities all the while they were on the stage, and we can readily believe that they have had an offer to be taken into the professional rank. The artistic hit of the bill was a quintette, "Life is Always Sunshine," by Misses Kearns and Levine, and Ing Song" duet by Miss Kearns and There were seven recalls, hearty, rousing, veritable storms of applause after this number, and nobody knows how many more there would have been If the audience had not taken pity on O'Hern, who had to Improvise the words for four er -ore verses. Another decided hit was the "Kiss- Mr. Rodfoot. And by the way, this number had a hit of unexpected rop mance connected with It that came as a surprise to the singers and a delight to the audience. George H. 'Lancey, as Terrano, a Mexican nableman in search of his affinity, gave a finished pegormanco. A pleasing, but not powerful voice, he easily rises above the amateur class, both in singing and acting. Burt Redfoot, as Hassan Bey, an officer of the Turkish army, captivated the crowd, by singing well within the compass of his voice, which is at all times pleasing and always full of expresson, while he carried off the honors ifi one of the principal acting parts. the means of last night completing a tie of real affection between the people of DuBois and Punxsutawney. 1-ant year the young people of this place went up there anil sang'thelr way Into the affections of the people of the Clearfield County metropolis, ami last night situation was reversed. The union of hearts was witnessed by one of the largest and most enthusiastic audiences scon in (he Jefferson Theater this season. It was one of the best show audiences, as well, and hence the "Said Paha" cast may feel the more highly complimented for having completely captivated it. The first numbers, a fine male chorus of young men, dressed in tfte typical garb of the Turk. "Two Little Birdies", by Walter O'Hern and Peter Daley, "Our Pasha", a solo and chorus by George H. Lancey, as a Mexican nobleman, and soldiers, and "The Darling Hong", which served to introduce the "Ladies of the Harem", were only a foretaste, of what was to come, both from the audience and the cast. Miss Agnes Kcants, as Serena, the fpasha's daughter, not only sang charmingly, but acted her part with intelligence, grace and cleverness. Miss Etta Levine, as Alti, Queen of Altara, has a voice that charms and thrills, and wjjich she employs with the skill of a professional, while Miss Myrtle Bailey got a glad hand in every song number, notwithstanding the fact that her make-up, as the Rajah's sister entirely eliminated her personal charm.

May 18.—Since the conclusion of the Boyle trials, Judge A. \V. Williams has received many letters of a threatening nature, although he has hitherto paid but little attention to them. IHPISE St HULL "The cases reported have all been mild, in fact the patients are reported as being up and around, apparently inconvenienced more by the restrictions placed upon them by the authorities than by the disease. Two new patients are reported this week, but whether from small pox or tion seems to be a question. "Of course, it i* just and proper to take all precautions in these matters, but there is no use making a useless scare out of it, and from all indications Eld red is just as free from any danger of the .disease as a town a score of miles away. The time limit of 14 days is past since the 'hundreds of exposures' reported, but there are no Indications of alarm.> Exchanges could, in justice to the borough of 111- dred. correct their reports."

"The alarming reports concerning the small pox at Bullis Mills is being spread throughout the country by J press reports, making Kldred the afflicted district, and is serving to work injury to the town's welfare. A bit; scare head on a Jamestown paper says: 'Small pox at Kldred Dance/ the Punxsutawney papers reported the whole town under quarantine, while Buffalo and neighboring papers gave the impression that this borough is infested with the disease and leads many to think that It is dangerous to stop in town. Such reports are injurious to the town and are exaggerations.The Eagle* a newspaper published at Eldri d. Pa., has heard that Punxsutawney and Buffalo newspapers have been spreading reports to the effect that the McKean town has a smallpox epidemic. The Eagle complains thusly: Disappointment, of ciiurse, exists in some quarte rs at Mis cuts in appropriation: but nitv l of tho-o who suffered are frank in their expressions that that no course lay open to the governor but the one he pursued.

Asked about the workings of the. company In Indiana, Mr. Clark replied that they were not in a very flourishing condition at present, but that he looked for better times in th/ future. Further, Mr. Clark stated the receipts of the street railway in Punxsutawney had fallen off considerably, but even at that they were nearly double the earnings of the Indthnn line. He gave as his reason that more money was in circulation in the Jefferson County town, and that the residents in Ihe rural districts patronized the road rather than using the horse and buggy.—Indiana Gazette.
