McQlarky, owner rf a patent Accompanying Messrs McGlaskey After the history of the Invention, Its Buccei*fu:> conflict with other patent posts and Its experimental history hail been detailed, Mr. Mr- Olaskey stated his proposition a« follows:Miss Carrie Campbell Whs TfostcK* ill Flrnt .\sM«*i»if>!nK,<> of The Sea«o ii. ] "Last evenin0- the auspices of the P. O. 8. of A. Rev Charles H. Fltzwilliam, pastor of the First Baptist Church, .of Springville, N. Y. lectured to a large audience in the Baptist Church on "America's Call to Duty." The address was one of unusual strength and the speaker car rled his audience with him through the discourse. He took up the history of this country from the time of the first visit of Columbus to the Western Hemisphere and carried it, in a very interesting manner, up to the present time. He spoge veryhighly of the fine character of President Roosevelt and the manner in which he has taken up the fight against graft and caried It to such a succesful conckislon. All in all it was one of the best lectures heard here In a number of years and those who were in attendance not only spent a pleasant evening but they were given something to think about for several evenings to come. The following from this morning's DuBois Courier would indicate that Rev. C. H. Fltzwilliam, formerly pastor of the Baptist Church of this city, is a lecturer of some force: The post consists of a three flanged iel stake of any desired length and driven into the ground about three j*. About five inches below the rface it passes through the center a steel shield nine inches square, d automatically locks Itself. The st and flanges are made by machinr, a set of which costs about 000, and is capable of turning ouit t)Ut 3,600 shields a ad posts per day. •out ten men, whose wages will lge from $2.60 to 16.00 per day, s required for each machine. The proprietors of the patent im that the post can be manufaced for about half the cost of oden posts, and since they will t from three to four times as long the wooden post, and are absolutely proof, their economic desirability ms seems unassailable. "Whose dog killed the most groundlings nnd coons?" Aside from this, however, and along W'tth the query, "Who killed the lust panther in Jefferson, Indiana or Clearfield counties?" is hereby submitted another equally important Interrogatory : Here then is the solution of the problem that has been vexing the officials of the Punxsutawney and Pittsburg Groundhog Club. One hundred and thirteen groundhogs run to earth by one dog in one season is sufficient to cause a dearth in any community, and if 'the other dogs in that locality have records anything like the North canine, it behooves the C!'ub to hold the annual hunt elsewhere. that number of groundhogs and coons he has kept up his regular duties as a watch dog, and T can give yo#u the positive assurance 'that I have missed nothing from the farm." "Then, Mr. Editor, you should note the fact that in addhion to his services in running down and capturing "1 have a dog that has Abo Jenkinson's novice beaten a mile, when I it cornea to catching grondhogs and coons. My dog has a record of 113' groundhogs and 23 coons for one season, and it was not a good season for varmints at that. He is not rated as a hunting clog, being an ordinary Scotch coolie and Shepherd farm dog. The other day there was printed In The Spirit an article taken from the Patton Courier, in which the writer c tilmed to have the champion groundhog dog In all the country. The number of woodchucks said to have been caught during the four years the Cambria County canine was in the business was so formidable looking that we had begun to despair of locating any other dog to dispute the title. Our misgivings were not well founded, for yesterday's mail brought a communication from the owner of a dog whose master, Walter North, of McCalmont Township, accepts the challenge of the Pattonlte in language as follows: Recent discoveries have been made, however, which leaves no doubt as to what caused that dearth of groundhogs In the vicinity of Highland Park, and It will not now be necessary to bring the subject officially before the meeting. it was then intended that the matter was to have been brought up at the coming meeting of the clans which Is scheduled 'to take pliace In Punxsutawney on February* 2. The 250 or more deciples of Bre'r Groundhog who last fall attended the annual hunt which took place on Groundhog Knob In McCalmont Township, marveled at the scarcity of eligible woodehucks In that vicinity. Old hunters were puzzled as well, and That Is all. but It tells a utory that Is muro eloquent than could be expressed In a column of ileserlptlvo prose. -As he lay on his couch realizing that his days wore numbered, hla mind strayed back to the scenes of I his childhood; back to the farm In far away Maine where he wa.s born and where he spent his youth. He recalled particularly the boulder I which stood near the old homestead I and which was the center of his play I stone around which such pleasant I compelled their rellnqulAhement. I With voice shaken with emotion treated by the thoughts of tin* hay ! py. care tree day* of long ago, asked his son to place that boulder upon his grave. 11.• declared that ho could secure no monument so satisfying as that rough pile of stone around which such pleasunt memories were associated. The aor solemnly promised to comply with the dying request of the veteran practlcloner and when the aged man died, the son hastened to Maine in search of the stone. He found it just where his father had said it lay, and it was shipped west. Carved upi on its flinty sides is the word "Blais- I dell." then replied In the affirmative. The remarkable request and the filial compliance attracted wide attention. The older Rlalsdell amassed a competency and ranked high In medical circles. He was taken Itl i 1 "Yw weeks ago and his son was sum 1 not,, i from his home In Pennsyli When It was seen that the ,1 was near the »on asked the, father if there was not some last • > that he wished gratified. The Parent thought a few moments and In compliance with the dying request of his father. Dr. Walter S. Hlaisdell, Jr., of Punxsutawney. Pa. journeyed nil the way frRm Central Illinois to Augusta Maine after a huge boulder which lay on the old farm where the parent had spent the happy days of his boyhood. The great mass of red granite, relic of some glacial formation, was loaded on a flat car and shipped 1500 miles to McDonald county, ill., and placed upon the grave of the younger physician's father, l)r. W. S. Hlaisdell, Sr.. one of the best known practlcioners of Central Illinois for forty years. HI., to attend the funeral of his father, Dr. W. S. Hlaisdell, Sr. Hefore his death the father made a dying request of his son. the fulfillment of which Inspired the editor of the Ulooinington, 111 , Pantagrnph, to write a letter.to the Spirit which reads as follows; Dr. \\ . s. Hlaisdell, of this place, was recently called to Bloomlngton, TUSfRCULAR MEAT Butler Authorities Say 75 Per Cent. Of lleef in This Country Is Affected. WASHINGTON, Pa. — Claiming: damages* of $110,000 H. F. Valtonburg has commenced suit against Clinton Township for personal injuri ies alleged to have been sustained by being thrown from his wagon while driving along a dangerous stretch of I road. In the cast are such favorite players at Robert T. Haines. Thomas Burrough. Horner Barton, Melville Alexander. Wilton Taylor Carl H. Hemmen, R. E. Magnue, Robert Mclntyre, Francis Learned, E. R. Clifford. Roy LaRue, Albert Wood. Cecil Phelps. C. Carstalre, lvate Griffiths, Bertha Maxwell, Virginia Randolph, Alice Leal Pollock and others. "The Heart of Maryland" will be presented with new, picturesque scenic accompaniments, and the cast includes a notable company of players.All who have witnessed the performances of "The Heart of Maryland" have been fascinated with the beauty and romanticism of its lovee episodes, in which, as the central figure, Maryland Calvert, the heroine, is a luminous and typical example of American womanhood, ennobled by the purity of her love and her heroic daring to shield the man to | whom she had pledged her faith I from all danger at the risk of her won life. It is a terrible dangerous leap, that of Maryland Col vert, when she, In her desperation swings from the belfry in the old colonial church that she may clasp the clapper tnd prevent the ringing of the bell which Is to insure the capture and execution of her lover as a spy. No truer illustration or one more memorable has ever been given upon the dramatic stage of woman's dauntless courage when her lover has become the dominant passion of her soul. David Belasco's great drama, "The Heart of Maryland,' will be seen for the first time in this city at The Jefferson Theater, on Tuesday night. Dec. 31. The envarloment of "The Heart of Maryland* are those of war, and the motive Is woman's love and self-sacritlclng heroism for the preservation of the honor and life of her heart's idol. A stronger scheme In the combination of the passion of human nature could not have been made to give absorbing interest, romanticism of effect and beauty of coloring to a play, or to more effectually win and hold popular sympathy It combines within itself all the greater requisites which form the mosaic of details in language, story, characters and picturesque realism in scenic display • ">ike complete and insure absolute nnri lasting suecess to a drama of the present time. FIFTEEN YEARS A FUGITIVE FROM JUSTICE-CAUGHT The funeral services will take place from the late home of the deceased on Torrence Street Monday at two o'clock p. m. Rev. C. W.

Mr. Crlssman had not been In rugged health for a number of years and last spring he was confined to a sick room for several weeks. He finally rallied, however, and In the course of the summer his health returned so that he felt stronger than for many years, and his friends believed that he had laid the foundation for a long lease on life.
