BOSTON. Mass., April in.- A notable congress of technology was opened at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology today in connection with the celebration of the institute's semicentennial. The proceedings were opened this afternoon with an address by President Maclaurln, which was followed by several papers dealing with some of the important features of applied science today. CAPTURED MANY FOXES There ar now sixty-three rases listed for trial and it is believed that court will run well into the coming? week. The important cases on the docket arc few, but many of them will require the examination of a long lint of wltne-'scs.

It Is believed t-hat .vorry over the case hastened Mr. Kissel's end. NEW YORK, April 10.—Death today quashed the indictment against Uustave B. Kissel, banker, who together with Thomas B. Harned, of Philadelphia were arrested in July. 1909, charged with conspiracy in a deal whereby the Sugar trust gained control of tne Pennsylvania Sugar Refining company, which had been established to compete with the trust. jews tHE ram Hunters chasing polar bears ami walrus between the icebergs; the final death throes. The audience lived the chase over again and In fancy felt the chill winds that swept the polar seis.—Portland Telegram, Dec. 22, 1911. The pictures were the most wonderful ever seen in this city, depicting Arctic life as it exists today. —Atlantic City Press, March 13, 1911. The most realistic pictures of the far North ever seen in Washington. —Star., February 23, 1911. The following press comments should convince one that the pictures are something out of the ordinaryThe Oobbs motion pictures, which will be shown at the Jefferson theatre tonight, are said to be the finest in the country, both from an artistic and educational standpoint. As yet there has not a single candidate for any of tlie ollices listed, loomed into view. In council the term of William Kairman, of the second ward, expires; Irwin Simpson, of the sixth ward, goes out; \V. H. Heckendorn, of the first ward; Bell, of the fourth ward; McQuown, of the third ward, also complete their terms. Justice of the Peace Means' term expires in May, but under the amendment to the Constitution, his term is extended until after the November election. The election of tlie school directors depends entirely upon the fate of the new school code In the Senate. As It has passed the House, tile code provides that in cities of the third class, seven school directors shall be elected at large, regardless of election districts. I'nder this ruling every member of the school board would be succeeded by another, providing, of couree, that he was not a successful candidate for reelection. Should the school code fail In the Senate, or be amended so as to effect the clause regarding third class cities, A. \V. Calloway will be the only retiring member. At the November election the voters of Punxsuta wiiey will elect a burgess, a borough treasurer, one justice of the peace, six constables, live members of council and probably seven school directors. THE MOMMl WINNERS FAflMEflS SHOW INTEREST IH HOHTICIILTURE DEMONSTRATION As congress did not pass a law Increasing Its membership, the States cannot enact a congressional apportionment measure at this session - Indiana Gazette. The delay in apportionment lias been caused by the fact that the I'nited States census bureau has not until recently furnished all the population statistics of the States. These figures are now available. It is questionable, however, whether sufficient time yet remains for the consideration of the bill at this time. Representative James T. Henry, of Indiana county, is preparing a legislative apportionment bill, and will make an effort to have it passed. Indiana county will gain a member in the assembly by the apportionment of the State. worn COIHHEO dill W\ I. KESLAR Punxsutawney, R. K. I). 1. Editor Spirit: 1 notice that your Battle Hollow correspondent is posing as a humorist, and instead of devoting his attention to writing the news, is endeavoring to establish a reputation as a funny man by throwing dirty little slurs at his neighbors. In a recent issue he said that 1 would be a candidate for register and recorder on the "So-boho" ticket. The Socialist county convention nominated me for register and recorder. The Socialist party is a reputable organization in whose principles I believe, and is not j a legitimate subject for the joke-, smith. As a candidate I do not ob-j ject to fair and rational criticism,' but 1 do object to petty little slurs from a personal friend. I do not think that a correspondent who takes pains to try to offend the readers of your paper is a very valuable asset. 1 trust this will be the las' of his offences in this line. 11«* does not, it appears, have the courage, to sign his name, but 1 have no objection to giving mine in full. Not Appreciated. Ifattle Hollow Correspondent'* Jokes This is the largest number of foxes that lias been killed or captured in that vicinity for a number of years. The capture of so many of the animals will probably gave a large number of chickens and lambs.—Indiana Gazette. The Nimrods of South and West Mahoning townships captured quite a lot of .voting foxes last week. The Lewis brothers, of Smicksburg, caught six young ones and killed a grown fox. A man named llartman captured seven young foxes. Sherman Seanor, Carl Leslie and Wiliain Bloniger cautured nine young foxes and wounded a grown one. The nine foves captured by Mr. Seanor can be seen at his home, where he has them on exhibition. MilS. MMIf OKEEfE XRW YORK. April in.

MM Willi OBSERVANCE The winners were Mrs. C. W. Hughes, 100 Jenks avenue, first prize, a handsome coffee percolator; William Mottar, 114 Lane avenue, second prize, six pretty hand-painted cups and saucers; Rev. Clark, or Dunlap avenue, third prize, a delicious Wilson pound cake; Mrs. S. G. Rudolph, of Big Run, fourth prize, five packages of Monibak coffee. That Monibak coffee has made friends in Punxsutawney and vicinity was plainly shown by the crowds attending this demonstration.On Saturday evening at the close of the Monibak demonstration at Eberhart's grocery department, the prize winners were drawn. Much Interest was shown both days during the demonstration and hundreds were convinced of the merits of Monibak. "The very fact that things can bo so terrible for half of tho .lews of the world while some Jews have grown powerful and strong in America and England shows how powerless powerful Jews can be and how helpless Is the Jew in caring for his own." "The situation of Israel was never. , worse than it is today. Half the world's Jewry dwells in lands of persecution and as far as the Jew of continental Kurope is concerned there is the impotence of the weak, or. worse still, the indifference of the strong. fact." Doctor Wise again spoke bitterly of Russia's refusal to recognize passports of Jewish-Americans and declared that It "merely remains for us to have the courage to face Itussia and confirm in name the denunciation of the treaties which the conduit of Uussla has terminated In Italihi Wise Say* Situation in Isruel Was Never Worse Than Now.

Pennsylvania. Mr. Cox claims, is the ideal section for the growing of apples and peaches. The fruit of that variety grown here is more luscious than those grown In either California or Florida when given the proper attention.When the farmers come to realize the possibilities of Pennsylvania soil and climatic conditions for the growing of peaches and apples the Stale will soon be foremost among the fruit-growing states and the farmers will be accordingly prosperous. He cited one Instance of a farmer In the eastern part of the Stale who had one hundred and seventv-flve acres out In peaches and apples. From his crop of last year this eastern farmer realized $90,000. Mr. Cox pointed out the fact that easily one half of the peach and apple orchards of western Pennsylvania are in sodded ground. Tills re maintains is absolutely wrong as the orchard of plowed ground gives at least one-half better results. The young trees, he states, grow from two to three times as fact in plowed ground He further states that for best results a man must give as much attention in the wav of culture to Ills peach and apple orchard at to his corn field.

The following press comments should convince one that the pictures are something out of the ordinaryThe Oobbs motion pictures, which will be shown at the Jefferson theatre tonight, are said to be the finest in the country, both from an artistic and educational standpoint. As yet there has not a single candidate for any of tlie ollices listed, loomed into view. In council the term of William Kairman, of the second ward, expires; Irwin Simpson, of the sixth ward, goes out; \V. H. Heckendorn, of the first ward; Bell, of the fourth ward; McQuown, of the third ward, also complete their terms. Justice of the Peace Means' term expires in May, but under the amendment to the Constitution, his term is extended until after the November election. The election of tlie school directors depends entirely upon the fate of the new school code In the Senate. As It has passed the House, tile code provides that in cities of the third class, seven school directors shall be elected at large, regardless of election districts. I'nder this ruling every member of the school board would be succeeded by another, providing, of couree, that he was not a successful candidate for reelection. Should the school code fail In the Senate, or be amended so as to effect the clause regarding third class cities, A. \V. Calloway will be the only retiring member. At the November election the voters of Punxsuta wiiey will elect a burgess, a borough treasurer, one justice of the peace, six constables, live members of council and probably seven school directors. THE MOMMl WINNERS FAflMEflS SHOW INTEREST IH HOHTICIILTURE DEMONSTRATION As congress did not pass a law Increasing Its membership, the States cannot enact a congressional apportionment measure at this session - Indiana Gazette. The delay in apportionment lias been caused by the fact that the I'nited States census bureau has not until recently furnished all the population statistics of the States. These figures are now available. It is questionable, however, whether sufficient time yet remains for the consideration of the bill at this time. Representative James T. Henry, of Indiana county, is preparing a legislative apportionment bill, and will make an effort to have it passed.

Pennsylvania. Mr. Cox claims, is the ideal section for the growing of apples and peaches. The fruit of that variety grown here is more luscious than those grown In either California or Florida when given the proper attention.When the farmers come to realize the possibilities of Pennsylvania soil and climatic conditions for the growing of peaches and apples the Stale will soon be foremost among the fruit-growing states and the farmers will be accordingly prosperous. He cited one Instance of a farmer In the eastern part of the Stale who had one hundred and seventv-flve acres out In peaches and apples. From his crop of last year this eastern farmer realized $90,000. Mr. Cox pointed out the fact that easily one half of the peach and apple orchards of western Pennsylvania are in sodded ground. Tills re maintains is absolutely wrong as the orchard of plowed ground gives at least one-half better results. The young trees, he states, grow from two to three times as fact in plowed ground He further states that for best results a man must give as much attention in the wav of culture to Ills peach and apple orchard at to his corn field.
