EDITORIAL NOTES.
MT. PLEASANT, WESTMORELAND CO., PA., TUESDAY EVENING, MAY 17,1892. NO
IN parts of this country there is sulil to
he a custom of ridding a house of rats by
writing them a letter In which they are
advised to depart. Kindly disposed per-sons
trying this plan will use soft paper
as It can the easier be nibbled into a soft
nest by the Industrious rodent.
MR. FRICK TO THE FRONT
N THE STEEL AND IRON WORLD AS HE
HAS BEEN IN COKE.
THU Senatorial contest in this state be-tween
Quay and Dalzell lias dwindled
down to a mere question of majorities
for Matthew, who had something like
5,000 over the Allegheny Congressman
at Saturday’s Republican primary elec-tion
in Blair county.
ROBERT MCCLURE, the Pittsburg Law
and Order .Society’s agent, lias been ac-quitted
on the charge of perjury but,
having been presented with the costB, he
can hardly accept the verdict as express-ive
of the unanimous belief of the Jury
In Ills innocence.
HI.AINK’H popularity Is the greatest
stumbling block in the way of Harrison’s
renomlnatlon boom. James will have
to write n second letter soon declining
the honor or the Minneapolis conven-tion
will thrust it upon him.
IT don’t speak well for Democratic
ways over In ' Old Flatt” to have the
younger element of the uiiterrilled secret-ly
organize to purify that party. An ex-planation
from Col. Tom Hearight seems
In order.
REV. KUNZMANN takes sensible ground
In Ills talk on amusements before the
Lutheran Conference; lor, rarely can evil
be found In the temperate use of any-thing;
only the abuse is harmful.
IT took Mr. Frick something like
twenty years to rise Irom a country store
clerkship to his present commanding po-sition
in the business world, but no one
will say it was an easy task.
THE District company, as a mere mat
ter ef good business policy, ought to add
Greensburg to this telephone district.
Such a concession will double the pres-ent
number of subscribers.
BLAINE’S politeness cost him a tumble;
but, unless enrly strawberry festivals In
Washington are different from the com-mon
run, he Buffered more In purso than
person.
PLENTY of good common sense argu-ment
in favor of the farm for young
people can be found In “Uncle Dan
Pershing’s article In another column.
COUNCIL should not forget the street
light question. The town will be in
darkness with the roturn of cold weather.
And time continues to fly.
POSTMASTER JORDAN IS to be congratu-lated
upon the succeBB that has crowned
his timely efforts to improve Mt. Pleas-ant’s
mail facilities.
IT is not likely that Prince Russell
Harrison will ever bo accused of being
the son of a father.

A CONNELLSVILLE SENSATION.
A Consolidation of All tho Carnegie
Interests With a Capital of Forty
Millions that will bo Under Ilia
Sole Management.
t lias been announced that after July
1 all the Carpegie-Frick concerns would
be drawn together under one band in
one corporation, but a very faint impres-sion
of the size and potency of this com-bination
has been made public. It Is
the intention to form a limited partner-ship
under the Pennsylvania laws, which
will be called tbe Carnegie Steel Com-pany,
Limited, and in which will be
combined Carnegie Bros. A Co., Carnegie,
Phipps A Co., the Keystone Bridge Com-pany
and a number of smaller concerns
which are controlled by these larger ones,
together with all tbe ore, furnace and
transportation Interests connected with
tbe Carnegie plants.
Tbe capital of tbe new company will
not be less than $25,000,000 and it may
possibly reach $35,000,000. It is under
stood that Carnegie Bros. A Co. some
time ago had invested in plants tinder
heir control $22,500,000 of which $18,-
000,000 waH paid in, leaving a debt of
$4,500,000. It is understood that tbe
arnegio, l’hipps A Co. plants represent
$10,000,000 at least. In addition to this
there is the Allegheny Bessemer steel
plnnt, recently purchased at Duqnesne
and the wire rod mill at Beaver Falls,
bought from Mr. Hartman.
Only three of the chief officers of the
new company have been decided upon,
they being 11. C. Frick, Chairman; John
G. A, Leishman, Vice Chairman, ami
Henry M. Curry, Treasurer.
While tbe Keysti tie Bridge Works
will be made a department of the new
Carnegie Hteel Company, there Is no in
tentlon of including in that concern tho
great coke property controlled by the
company. The coke interests will he re
tained in their present shape under the
control of the II. C. Frick Coke Com-pany,
of which Mr. Frick is and will
continue to be the official and actual
chief officer. There are a great many
matters of detail which have not as yet
been decided upon, but which will be
arranged within the next ilO days, among
which will lie the selection of some men
as departmental chiefs, the consolidation
of offices and the notification of certain
employes that they are no longer re-quired.
Andrew Carnegie will continue to he
the largest single owner In these steel
and coke plants, but he will turn over
the management of the whole thing to
Mr. Frick, whose interest is second in
size to that of Mr. Carnegie. It is the
intention of Mr. Carnegie to devote the
remainder of liis career to spending his
his millions in artistic, social and other
directions. It is not unlikely that lie
will take an active part in political life
both in this country and in Great Britain.
By this it is meant that on theotherside
of the water lie will give aid and counsol
to the advanced Liberal politicians,
while in this country he may seek more
Bolid honors.
Mr. Henry Filipps, Mrs. Thomas M.
Carnegie and Mr. W. L. Abbott will con-tinue
as large stockholders in the new
company. The retirement of Messrs
Henry Phipps, John Walker nnd W. L.
Abbott from actual part in the manage
ment is understood to have been more or
less under pressure.
Mr. Frick, after numerous purchases
is understood to own more titan one
fourth of th e steel and iron Concerns and
about two-fifths of the coke property.
The coke property of the Carnegie Frick
combination is almost as valuable as its
iron and steel end. A sweeping estimate
of the aggregate value of the Connells-ville
coking coal land and plants in the
whole region is $40,000,000, and of this
the Carnegie Frick companies own or
control 70 percent., or$28,000,000. This
of course, is a liberal valuation. The
Frick Coke Company and its branches
have outstanding $11,000,000 of stocks
and bonds and it is understood that
Messrs. Carnegie and Frick have refused
$20,000,000 for this property. Titey own
and operate 11,000 of the 17,000 coke
ovens in the Connellsville region and
besides they own the Monastery coke
works, which are outside the region, the
large coke plant at Larimer, which ieop
erated on slack from the WeBtmoreiand
Coal Company, and a large plant with
abont 200 ovens on the Pittsburg, Vir-ginia
and Charleston railroad.
In addition to these Pittsbufg interests
in Iron, steel and coke, the Carnegies
own or control a large number of Besse-mer
and other kinds of iron ore mines
in the Lake Superior, Gogebic and other
ore regions, together with stock in rail-roads
and ore docks, lake steamer and
freight lines and much undeveloped coal
and ore land. It is estimated that the
Carnegie outfit can be safely valued at
from $50,000,000 to $00,000,00, ail of
which will be absolutely under the man-agement
of Mr. Frick.

THE GOOD OLD FARM
HIGH HIS BEEN THE BIRTHPLACE OF
THE NATION'S GREATEST MEN.
Closing Paragraphs Taken From D.
II. Pershing’s Papor Read Before
the Farmers' Institute at Con
nellsvilla-
The fiirtn has been the birth pi see of
lie most noted men of the past; it will
ontinue to beof thefntnre. John Fitch,
an early and noted inventor, also Oliver
vims, the inventor of tho first American
locomotive, were the eons of farmers; so,
too, was .Samuel Hlalor, the father of
American cotton manufacturing, Kli
Whitney, the inventor of the cotton gin,
Amos Whitmore, the inventor of the
-ard machine, Robert Fulton, whose
name is immortal as the inventor of the
first steamboat, were all raised and lived
on the farm.
Education alone does not make the
man or woman you must first build a
iioiiso before you move into it. A great
mind witli a weak body cannot accom
pliBli very much ; those who are strong
both in mind and body are the master
leaders of men and shape the destiny of
nations. The great business world is
continually calling for volunteers.
The faithful and determined effort, the
unyielding and inflexible purpose, the
indomitable will, always find a fruitful
field of labor. In tlie professions, in
every mart nnd avenue of trade, in every
line of industry, there is ever an i net eas-ing
demand for young men of energy,
ability and diameter.
No idlers are wanted—no Macawbers,
wailing for something to turn np, are In-quired
for. None but those who nre
ready and anxious to roll np theirsleaves
and put their shoulders to tho wheel
need even venture to apply. Leaders
we must have. They who now rule and
manage will soon pass away, and their
places must, be filled from the ranks of
the young men of to-day. And who
shall the lucky one be? There is no
royal road to success. He who would
win must work.
Then arise, young man, and look about
you. Quit the society ot the idler and
slum tin; haunts of the profligate. Edu
cate yourself for a life of usefulness,
choose to lie a farmer; do not be ashamed
of your occupation ; endeavor to do your
best, and rest not until yon become a
leader In that calling, and generations
yet unborn will rise up and call you
blessed.
IMPROVED MAIL FACILITIES.
New Vork nml I'lttnburg Ponchen Arrive
Now nt HtlO In the Morning.
Postmaster Jordan for some time pant
saw no reason why the mail from the
west for Mt. Pleasant, which is tied out
at Pittsburg about 3 a. in., should not ar-rive
here curlier than by the B. & O.
road at 10:20. lie went to Pittsburg
last week and laid the matter before the
superintendent of mails for that city and
then stated his wants to R. G. Jackson,
ot New York City, who is the superin
tendent of Iho railway mail service for
this district, which comprises the states
of New Y’ork, New Jersey, Pennsylvania
and parts of Maryland and Delaware,
and it didn’t take that clear sighted gen-tleman
long to see the need for the
change and make it.
Mr Jackson’s order went into effect
Friday morning last, and as a result
pouches from both New York and Pills
burg, the former having been thrown
off at Greensburg in time to catch the
Fairchance Express, arrived hero at 8:10
and their contents distributed and in the
banks and a good many of the business
houses before 9 o’clock, iiankers and
business men generally appreciate the
change and are complimenting Mr. Jor-dan
on his success.
UNION MEN DISCHARGED.
Tile Cnilltirlft Iron Cltllljinny Still Itrfna-ta
to Ilrco|(iilxe linliiir OrgAiilxndoiia.
The trouble at the Cambria Iron Works,
Johnstown, resulting from the company’s
determination not to have members from
any organization in its employ, which It
lias adhered to for the past six years,
ailII continues. The discharge of lire
trainmen, Tuesday, for belonging to a
union was followed up the next day by
the discharge of about 55 more men.
General Manager Price says that Ride
8, which strictly prohibits any employe
from belonging to any organization, will
he strictly enforced, and developments
would seem to ho proof that such would
lie the case. On the other hand the
leaders of the organizations think that
the company will he compelled to recog-nize
them. Tho arrival there of the
grand officers of llie lodges to Which the
discharged men belong is awaited witli
interest.
A prominent railroad man and a
Brotherhood official, in speaking of the
difficulty, said: “If Hie grand officers
ol the Brotherhood approve of the action
of tho local Brotherhood, and the com-pany
refuses to recognize them, a lug
strike will lie inaugurated. Of course,
no Interference will tie made witli the
operators of Hie millH, and they can em-ploy
new men without trouble, but on
Hie tiig railroad lines not a wheel ofacar
will he moved which is loaded with ma
terial to or from the Cambria mills.
Tins will compel a shut down, which is
hound to continue until the company
yields, ns the trainmen are so well or-ganized
that tiioir demands must he ac-ceded
to.”

The ladies of the Presbyterian church
will give an entertainment In the Grand
Opera House Thursday evening ol tills

Mr. E. E. Crltchlield, whose abilities
in that line are too well known to the
Mt. Pleasant public to need any mention,
lias had charge of the school while in
preparation and will appear as tho teach-er

classes in tbe good old way until tliedin-ner

Irlet Directors” cull in on an official visit

fearful gun ever before him. Miss
Blanche was of the same mind, and the

UNIONTOWN EXERCISED
Over (lie Finding of mi Infant.’* Body In
the Old Preabjrterlan Graveyard.
The discovery of an unknown coffin in
the old Presbyterian graveyard at Union-town,
Thursday, created a sensation.
The gardener was making his rounds in
the unused part of the cemetery, where
no funeral has occurred for years, and
found a newly burred coffin. It had been
placed in the ground so hastily that the
burial had been only partly accomplish-ed,
and one end of the coffin protruded.
The cemetery authorities at once notified
the Sanitary Committeeof the discovery,
saying no burial had been made there on
their authority.
Members of the committee, accom
panied by a policeman, visited the
graveyard that evening and opened the
coffin, which wae found to contain the
body of a pretty child, apparently about
2 months old. The body of the ba.be
had been in the ground but a short time.
The burial had evidently occurred at
midnight the night before, when the
cemetery watchers were absent. The
little stranger was handsomely dressed-
Marks on the neck and body induced the
searcliers to order a further investiga-tion
which the coroner made, but tbe
identity of the remains was not discov
ered.
Vomit' IJiiloiitown Drinocrnl! Secret Ijr
Organize to Purify (lie Party.
A number of the young Democrats of
Uniontown have organized a secret so-ciety
for the purpose of putting down
home rule. They arc opposed to the way
the Democratic party has been managed
for the past several years mid propose to
give their undivided efforts to revolu-tionizing
and purifying things political
from a Deinoeratio standpoint.
The first tiling to bo fought is the
slating of candidates by a tew ring poll
ticians. In this organization are many
of the best and most influeniial young
men of Hie town. James Martin, of
Uniontown, Is president, and the execu
live committee consists of about twenty
active young men. The move is said to
he a stunning blow to the old politicians
who fear much trouble is ahead of the
party. [

A Great Musical Event.
The May musical festival, which is to
be given in Uniontown May 24, 25 and

LUTHER’S FOLLOWERS
OLD IN INTERESTING TWO DAYS’ CON-FERENCE
AT GREENSBURG.
One Minister Condemns tho Modern
Danoe, but Sees no Harm in Card
and Base Ball Playing Where
There are no Stakes.
The Houtliern Conference of Hie Lulli-ernn
church met at Greensburg,Tuesday
last, ami continued in session until
Wednesday evening. Rev. A. L. Yount,
Greensburg, was elected president and
tlie next meeting will lie held at Union-town
in tlie fall.
One of tlie most Interesting topics dis-ussed
was, “Can a Teacher ot a Sunday
liool Class Consistently Play a Game
Cards or Dance?” The Rev. J. C.
Kunzmann, of the South Side, Pittsburg,
took a strong stand against the modern
dance and condemned it in measured
terms. He believed, however, that card
playing was not nearly so grievous an
offence as some brethren would picture
In this point lie was sustained bj
the Rev. A. D. Potts, of Pleasant Unity.
he Rev. Kunzmann believes that the
old iron clad idea that all is wrong tlmt
condemned should go. The shooting
of a billiard hall or the playing ofthe
good old national game of base ball, said
the reverend gentleman, was pleasant
pastime. There is no harm In the sport
so long as gambling is not indulged in.
The charges made by the Rev. J. A.

. A. Eiregan, of Connellsville, created
sensa’ion. They were that Mr. Flre-gan
was guilty of drinking intoxicating
liquors, and other actions unbecoming a

their publication should go on. He de-nounced
immoral literature UH degrading
the homes and bringing about vice and
crime.
A spirited discussion was had on tlie
establishment of a Board of Deaconesses
within the hounds of Conference. Nearly
ail the ministers favored the idea, and il
was decided that the matter be referred
to the next meeting of Conference. A
thesis on lay readers, prepared by the
Rev. D. M. Kemerer, of Pittsburg, was
read, and the secretary of Council was
instructed to report to Hynod that the
thesis is substantially the expression of
the Southern Conference. 'The motion
practically sanctioned laymen for active
work in the church. This will invest
the laymen with all the functions of the
ministry, including the sacrament of
baptism and excepting only the admin-istration
of the Holy Communion. The
laymen, however, will have to undego
an examination as to character, doctrine
and other qualifications.

The Republican CongreMtoiiRl Confer*
ence In This District Fall of Doubt,
The Pittsburg Commercial Gazette says:
In this year’s Republican Congression-al
conference in the Twenty-first district
Col. Huff, Westmoreland’s unanimous
choice, will haveoneofhis former con-testants
again pitted against him aDd
probably two. The sure one is D. H.
Heiner, ex district attorney of Arm
strong county, who is bis county’s choice
again, and the second is ex Congress-man
Craig, of Jefferson. The latter
county will nominate Friday, May 27,
and all signs point to the naming of
Craig. Two years ago Indiana’s candi-date
was T. D. Cunningham, cashier of
the First National bank of Blairsville,
and this year Captain J. S. Nesbit will
make the fight for that county.
The date for the conference will not
be fixed until after the Jefferson pnma
ries, hut the place of meeting is already
being talked of. Apollo, where the con
ference was held two years ago, wants it
again, while Saltsburg, which was the
meeting place in 1888, thinks her turn
comes this year.
It has been of late years the habit of
this district to give the Congressman to
the four counties in the district in turn
and a strong effort will be made this
year to retire Mr. Huff, although his
friends hope that the record he has
made as a first term Congressman will
secure his return. Craig, if nominated
having already served one term, will
scarcely carry with him the prestige of
Nesbit and Heiner, who are fresh candi-dates.
A combination between the conferees
of Indiana and Armstrong is predicted
on either Heiner or Nesbit, and in that
event Jefferson will hold the key to the
situation. If she joins the combination
against Iluff that will settle bis fate, but
if AVestmoreland wins over the Jefferson
delegation a hard and long fight will re-sult.
Another deadlock is not looked
for, however, as all four counties are
heartily sick of their experience two
years ago.

THIS START FOR A MERCHANT NAVY-Tha
Senate 1ms concurred In the House
bill iiclmittint; lo American registration
the two lnmnn Line steamers, the City
of Paris and the City of Now York. As
the bill had been Indorsed by the Seore
tan of the Navy hofore its Introduction
into the House it already has the sanc-tion
of the Executive, and there is no
doubt that tho President will hasten to
attach Ids formal signature and allow the
provisions of the hill to he carried out
probably before this reaches the reader’s
eye.
One of the first results will be the build*
lug of two 12,000 ton steamers In nil
American shipyard lo supplement the
two admitted lo registration. Senator
Frye, In Ids statoiuent advocating tho
passage of the bill, said that a similar line
of three swift steamers would bn estab-lished
between New York and Antwerp,
thus providing under American regis-tration
a fleet of seven of tho largest nncl
swiftest steamers In the world, all of
which will be available for government
service in ease of war.
For this beginning ol ngrent merchant
navy, ns an exchange well says, tho peo-ple
of the United Slates are to bo con-gratulated
and Congress Is to be com-mended.
Since tho war wo have been
developing our agricultural, railway and
mnnufnoturing interests at a marvelous
rate and pursuing a policy that Ims driv-en
American shipping from tho seas. It
la lime that American products and
American passengers were carried In
American vessels, and the same energy
and Ingenuity that Imve developed all
our other industrial Interests go ninaz-ingly
should bo able to accomplish this
latter task as well. The registration ol
the City ot Paris and tho City of New
York will do for a starter, but It Rhould
not be the end of our efforts to secure a
great American mercantile navy.
WYOMING’S HIGH STAND.
At tho recent Republican convention
in Wyoming two women were chosen as
alternative delegates to attend the Na-tional
Republican Convention at Minne-apolis.
Mrs. Thercssa Jenkins, ol Lara,
mie county, and Mrs. Cora O. Carlton,
of Vintah county, will have the high and
memorable honor of being the flrst indi-viduals
of their sex ever designated to
occupy a possible place among the coun-cilors
having the duty of framing a na-tional
platform and naming a Presiden-tial
candidate lor one of the two princi-pal
political parties.
Woman suffragists will doubtless ex-perience
some disappointment becaase
the widely circulated rumor that at least
oue of the actual and not merely contin-gent
delegates from the only woman suf-frage
Btate in the Union would bo a wo-man
was not verified, but, though tho
world moves, its progress takes time,
and enough has been done to mark a
very significant new departure along tho
lineB of female enfranchisement. More-over,
it is by no means out of the range
of human probablltlty that oue or both
of these alternative delegates may yet
find her services in demand by reason of
resignation, inability to attend or some
oilier cause oil the part of either or eacli
of the male principals. At auy rate, al-ternates
are entitled to places on ttio
floor ot the convention, and certainty no
man would be mean enough to hope that
the two ladles will not be present.
Wyomlng has taken a high stand ns it
is the first American state to place the
PresidcntUIJbnllot in tlie,hnnds of women,
but it will not bo the last.
THE POPE AND AMERICAN SCHOOLS.
Pope Leo has given another proof ol
his wisdom and progresiveness hy con-firming
the decision of the Propgauda in
favor of the plan advocated by Arch-bishop
Ireland In the matter of the Amer-ican
Catholic Bchools. The decision does
credit to the Propaganda as well as the
Pope, and It ought to remove out of the
way a difficulty which year after year
has been becoming more unpleasant.
In this country the Roman Catholics
have been divided on this school ques-tion
. Both parties have developed con -
siderable strength. One party has taken
the ground that religion is a necessary
part of daily education, that it ought to
be taught In the schools, that It can only
bo taught with safety by Roman Catholic
teachers, and that as such teaching was
not to be obtained in the public schools
it was a necessity that the Roman Cath-olics
should have schools of their own.
Many such schools have been provided,
and they uA^ierally maintained as
the^^^^^^^^^Pr0Vlded by Roman
liberal party,
Bishop Ireland is the recognized head,
looking at the whole question from a
more thoroughly American standpoint,
have pronounced In favor of the existing
public school system.
Cut of the general question aroseaspe
elal question—a question tho answering
ot which could not hut he fraught with
weal or woe to one ot our most specific
and most tloarly cherished American in-stitutions.
That class of Roman Catho-lics
who, not contented with the public
schools, desire schools of their own have
claimed state endowment. They were
citizens—they were taxpayers—and, ns
In thelrjudgmeut Roman Catholic schools
had become a necessity, they held that
their schools had an equal right to slate
support with the public schools.
Looking at the situation from the pure
ly Catholic standpoint, the plea seems
plausible enough. Looking at It Iron:
the American standpoint, such n plea
Involves the destruction ol the non sec-tarian
public school. If concessions
such ns demanded were made to the Ro
man Catholics, similar concessions could
not well he refused to the Protestant
Episcopalians, to the Presbyterians, to
the Methodists, the Baptists and the oth
ers; am),such concessions demanded and
made, tho denominational school would
take the plaeo of the national.
There Is, Indeed, hut small likelihood
that Die people of the United Slates will
ever he tempted to go so far astray ns to
destroy the ladder hy which they Imve
raised themselves to tlielr present proud
and enviable position. If we are wed
ded to anything as a people more than
to our national unity, It may he aaid
with safety that It Is to our public school
system, in view of these considerations
the wisdom of the Papal decision he
comes the more apparent.—New Port
Press.
WOMEN AS DOCTORS.
The world moves. Until a generation
ago a woman doctor was hardly known
within the circle of the regular medical
profession, and they wore looked upon
In every community ns charlatans or
cranks. The prejudice against them en
taring the medical profession was almost
universal, and strange ns it may seem,
the prejudice of women against tlielr own
sex In a profession,for which they should
he specially fitted and in which they are
specially needed, was even more pro-found
than the same prejudice among the
stonier sex. But steadily, although
slowly, public sentiment has advanced
lo accord to women tho obviously just
right of entering any of the professions,
and women now practice both law and
medicine in every section of the country.
The progress of tho age in advancing
women lo tlielr just rights in the battle
of life was impressively illustrated in the
Academy of Music during the past week,
when forty two young women appeared
upon the stage as graduates of the Worn
an’s Medical College of this city with
tlielr fairly won titles of Doctors ot Med-ciuo.
It is gratilylng to know that Ibis
college has been in existence for forty
years; hut it is only within the last score
of years that It has been able lo present
anything approaching a graduating class
respectable in numbers. Now women
practitioners nro not only known but re-spected
In almost every community, and
the success they have attained in the pro
fession more titan justifies the great bat-tle
that waR fought to will for them open
doors to distinction In the profession.
It will seem strango to tho readers of
history half a century hence to learn
that women were excluded from the pro-fessions
of the country until even after
the noon-tide of the llltli century, for
there is little reason to doubt that in
much less than a half century, women
physicians will fairly divide the medical
practice with their professional brethren,
and men physicians, in the many cases
in which every consideration of delicacy
should prefer a woman physician, will
be quite as uncommon as women were a
generation ago. The world moves.—
Philadelphia Times.
YANKEE INGENUITY.
The eternal principle that a man who
is master of his craft can always, in the
world’s economy, find a market for Ids
labor, is finely illustrated by the ease of
the Yankee sculptor of Klttery, Me. For
years this capable artist lias been noted
for *tlie skill and grace with which lie
turned out figureheads. But the demand
for figureheads has fallen off—the newer
coasters want yacht prows,not goddesses
and busts of Neptune. But the sculptor
did not desi.Hir, and utter a little think-ing,
went Dto tho business of supplying
the heathen with idols. He has now a
contract on hand for tho Central Asian
market which it will take him two years
to complete, and by that nine his orders
from Alabka, the Sandwich Islands and
Alnca will probably he listed for ten
years more to come. This is really busi-ness.
THIS Supreme Court of the state has
decided that the purchase of stocks on
margin is not necessarily gambling. If
the transaction contemplates a delivery
of the thing purchased, it is a legitimate
transaction ; it no actual transfer.is con-templated,
but the deal is simply a wager
on the rise or fall of prices, the operation
is a gambling one. The lamb’s fleece
will be taken In the good old way just
the same.
THE Russian war cloud is about to re-sume
the business of “looming up” at
the old stand. It seems to be the Czar’s
Idea that if big subjects can be got Into a
fight they may forget tlielr hunger.

Evil KffVcts ot the Ilendlng' Deni.
PltUburg Labor Tribune
So far the Reading combine has ad-vanced
the price of anthracite and re-duced
the output. Higher price for con-sumers,
less work for miners, and the
“combine” gobbles all the profits. Lees
work for the miners means more miners
idle and more competition for the work
that is to be done. It is destruction lo
tho foundation upon which fair wages
are based.

TIIK CAUSES THAT I.KAIl UP TO IT AND ITS
IMMEDIATE ItEBUl.TM.
However much wo may deplore the
effects of Intoxication and condemn the
saloon, still wo have net made ourai Ives
masters ef tho situation until we Imve
acquainted ourselves thoroughly with
the cause. The cause la In the appetite.
Wlint ilees a drinking man thirst for?
lie crave* for a stimulant. .Something
that will brace him up.
A man disappointed hy failure In bind
ness or in Ids love affairs Is depressed by
the failure ol Ids hopes, which acts Ini
mediately on Ids nerve center, which Is
located In the body just behind the stem-noli.
It gives to the whole system a re-laxed,
depressed, unstimulated feeling.
Alcohol Is composed mainly of hydrogen
and carbon. The carbon hardens and
braces the tissues, while the hydrogen
inflates, lightens up nod lifts up and
raises rapidly lo the head, and lo the top
of that where hope is located. Asa con-sequence
it is a direct and immediate
stimulant, ami the victim feels tlmt he
Ims been directly helped.
The first effect, helpful as It seems, la
only for a few hours at most. If the
slimulant was not renewed by a second
drink it would lie seen that all the buoy-ant
feeling would pass off In loss than
six hours. The hardening, compact fool-ing
It. gives to the tissues of tho body
does not vanish so readily, for a oontlnu
ntlon of drinking soon reaches a stand-still.
A system In a lax, fluttering condition
is by alcohol first steadied and then par-alyz'd.
Not stiffened hut simply braced
to a standstill. This is the intoxication
of the bodily tissues, and Is the solidify-ing
carbon. Tho diamond represents
pure carbon. Carbon Is added to Iron to
harden It Into steel. The ripened hard-ness
or woodllko appearance of a full
grown plant is the result of carbon added
to Its suit, young, milky fiber. Carbon
stops notion and is the greatest know!,
cohesive. It, is the solidifying, resisting
power in all explosives, while hydrogen
is its principal expanding, separating
power.
Habitual drinking of alcoholic liquors
so hardens the tissues and stops action
that gout, rheumatism and mental imho
ollity are the results. The buoyant lilt
ing up effect of tho hydrogen Is soon
gone. Hence we see that resorting to
drink for a slimulant is successful only
long enough to mislead the victim, for
its final effect Is a decided disadvantage.
It is tho most ingenious fraud known to
mankind— brilliant in Its promises arid
n most unlimited swindle In its fulfill
incur.
Mon drink to keep warm and drink to
keep cool, because of the double efleet ol
alcohol. When It enters the stomach it
dispels the heat or sends it outward; thus
the surface of the body Is immediately
warmed. The alcohol pushes the bent
before it as It spreads through the system
towards tho surface of the body, and
when the alcohol itself reaches the sur-face
of the body It has driven the heat
beyond it and thus leaves tho whole body
cold. Heat is the result of action, and
carbon stops tho action at each point as
fast ns It reaches It, and enough of It par-alyzes.
The man who is exhausted hy over-work
seeks this deceptive stimulant.
The man whose system is exhausted hy
-ickness, by lack of food or by trying to
live on adulterated food, each and all ot
them turn to this fraudulent support.
Sleeping In a loul or uuventllated apart
meet exhausts the system and creates
this craving for stimulants.
Wo are often told that if laboring peo-ple
worked less hours they would pat
ronize the grog shop more, but the re
verse is the truth. They patronize the
grog shop because they work too much
and are exhausted and seek a stimulant.
Overworked mothers produce children
who are exhausted from birth. They ex
haust their energy In work and are thus
deprived of the power to give snlllcien
energy to tlieir children. Such children
are literally born tired and they crave a
stimulant from iheir birth up. They are
easy victims to the drlr.k habit. The
children of exhausted mothers are the
genuine barroom loafers. In a majority
of cases the crime begins before the ol-ferider
is horn by overworking the
mother. The principal evils are ignor
anoe and ovorwork. The difficulty in
hand is the desire lor stimulant.
Alcohol is an arch deceiver.--Lawn.
THE DISASTER OF DRUNKENNESS
IT THREATENS TO OVERWHELM THE COt’N-TRT
WITH A FLOOD OF WOK.
So great is the disaster, from an eco-nomic
point of view, wrought by the
liquor traffic that Germany has instituted
a most exhaustive investigation. This
investigation has resulted in the declare
lion that the alcohol habit reduces the
available military strength of the empire
hy 15 per cent. The investigation was
conducted according to the highest stan-dard
of German thoroughness, conducted
in a couutry where public opinion is
strongly in favor of beer and wine drink
ing, and the results declared must be
considered as arrived at very conserva-tively.
Will our social relormers of the eco-nomic
schools in America pause oue mo-ment
and consider the terrible enemy
they have in the liquor traffic? The iu-dictment
against liquor can be made
more severe in America than in Ger-many.
The pens of poverty are not filled
alone from the humbler walks of life.
Those from the ranks of wealth and from
the great commoners come down borne
toward a terrible destiny until they find
themselves among the dependent poor.
One million people in these United
States are at work day and night to push
the terrible traffic.—Progressive Age.
We use Alcohol

HE REBUKED GENTLY.
Hut the 111K Store Clerk uas NtagRtred
Into Htleiice.
lie was such a weak and humble little
man ttiat when lie came into the grocery
store to make a complaint the clerk was
disposed to be haughty mid imperious.
"May I Inquire,” said lie in a still,
small voice, “if any gentleman here gold
my wife some butter yesterday?”
“I guess I’m the man,” responded a
big, brawny fellow with an inch or two
more chin on him than than a clerk
usually lias need of iu Ids business. .
“Ob, excuse me,” exclaimed the cus-tomer,
shrinkingly, “I meant no offense.
The butter is all right, but 1 wanted to
say that three colors of hair in one roll Is
somewhat incongruous. And I thought I
might add also a request Dial If you could
send up a brush and comb with the next
sale we would he ever so much obliged.
Of course, it was an oversight on your
part, and I am not complaining, you un-derstand—
not complaining, merely sug-gesting.”
The clerk’s face was a study.
“And,” went on the little man, “I
don’t think it is quite fair to put tacks
nt 15 cents a pound in butter at forty
cents, unless you make a discount for
difference in weight and price, or throw
In a claw-hammer so we can draw the
tacks upon putting the butter on the ta-ble.”
The clerk was gasping and the little
man was going right along.
“Referring again to the hair mentioned
previously,” lie said, “permit me to say
that I find no fault because of its quan-tity
or its length. The incongruity of
color was the only objection. In the old
times we read that Sampson bad long
hair and a great deal of it, and your but-ter,
in that respect, has rights my entire
family is bound to respect. Our only
regret is that you did not send it up in a
cage.”
By this time the clerk had fallen up
against the counter, but the little man
paid no heed.
“I might possibly,” lie continued
mildly and weakly, “touch upon its age,
but l have some reason to suspect that
this butter is made from milk, that the
milk came from a cow and that a cow is
a female, and 1 have been taught from
my youth up to abstain from any and nil
references to age In relation to female
kind, either remotely or contiguously.
Therefore 1 shall not animadvert upon
the subject, except to remark incident
ally that the phrase ‘feeble old age’ does
not in the remotest degree apply to this
case. 1 wish you’d send up to the house
a pound ot soda, four bars of soap,
package of starch, a bushel of apples and
twenty five pounds of sugar. My wife
asked me to leave the order, and she said
she’d come around herself and see about
the butter. Good morning,” and tiie
little man walked meekly out.

it isn’t worth one-half as much.
The fact that VA Horse Blankets
