CUMBERLAND is sgitated over a
match bill of $45 for six months for
street lamplighting. And a genius for
statistics has added to the perturbation
by finding out that it takes fourteen
matches to light single lamp, and it
has been good time for lsmplishting
too. The matches are endorsed as
good also SO the bill ought to be paid
and the genius sxtradited to Louisi
ana to dive into the true inwardness
Of parish majorities.

TIE CENTENNIAL EXHIBITION
closed Friday with formal cere-
monies. A brief resume of the stats
tics of the exhibition shows some very
interesting features. The number of
paying admissions on May 10, open
ing day, was 1912 but it is estimat-
ed that, including free admissions
there were over 10000 persons pres
ent. On the 4th OF July the principal
ceremonies of the day occurred in In
dependence Square. The paying ad-
mission to the exhibition that day
numbered 1920. Pennsylvania day,
September %, had 257 ,l69 paying ad-
missions Maryland and Delaware
day, October 10, l61, 355; New York,
122,OO3; Ohio, October &c, l22,3O0.
With the sole exception Of Pennsyl-
vania day, Maryland and Delaware
day drew the largest attendance to the
exhibition at any one time. The to-
tai admission for each month may be
estimated from the following cash re-
turns from the turnstiles The total
cash receipts in May were $780,
49O35; June, $347,933.4l; July,
1913, 1928; August, $4l5,659.25
September, $929,056; October, l, $780,
81l50 ten days (estimated) in Nov
ember, $4,000. Grand total, S.
49,, 049.74 for the whole term of the
exhibition.
The board of finance expended
100000 in the buildings and I'M
proyements of the exhibition. This
amount is covered by the following
receipts: Pennsylvania appropria-
ton, 100000; Philadelphia's ST.
100000; concessions, gifts and inter
est, 100000 stock subscriptions, $2,-
100000, and the national appropria-
ton, 81, 500,000-total, 100000.
The expenses outside of 100000
will amount to about 81 $4,000, and
this deducted from the admission mon
ey will leave over 100000 net prof
it, or eighty per cent. on the stock
subscriptions.

THE SITUATION UNCHANGED. -
This is the stereotyped report with
regard to the disputed States of South
Carolina, Florida and Louisiana The
papers of both parties bristle with
head lines indicating newly de-
veloped majorities and other favora-
BILE omens of success, and kilograms
follow each other detailing some fea-
ture attending the determination of
the contest.
Altogether, the face of affairs is not
50 threatening Of trouble as seemed
apparent but few days ago. The
popular excitement has cooled down
to quiet conclusion to take events as
they come, and to trust to the wisdom
and fairness of the arbitrators of the
returns and the watchfulness Of those
invited to view the count, for a just
declaration of the result.
A few days may suffice to settle
the mooted question, or it may extend
into the approaching session of Con-
gress, or on to the 9Th of March,
Some of the leading papers are pro-
phesying that the count will not de,
termine the result, and advise peo-
pie not to look for speedy end OF
the trouble. For the sake Of the
country, political good temper, trade,
business, ETC., it is hoped that both
the prophecies and counsel are ground
less. Times are hard enough without
the embittering attendance of an I'M
relenting party controversy.
Let us work and hope for the best.

A Training-Ship on Fire with 400
Boys Aboard.
The London DaRy Ne,os of the 23rd
of December gives the following ac-
count of the burning of the British
training ship Goliath:
A terrible disaster occurred on the
River Thames yesterday morning, the
Goliath, a school ship. lying off Gray's
and having 400 boys on board, being
destroyed by fire. The full extent OF
the calamity cannot yet be measured,
but many of the boys and one Of the
officers are missing, and are thought
either to have been drowned or per-
ished in the flames. The Goliath was
an old wooden line of battle ship,
which carried eighty guns, with en-
gines of 400 horse power. Some years
ago, after laying by il ordinary, she
was lent by the Admiralty to the Poor
Law authorities of the METROPOLIS in
order to try the experiment of training
the poor boys of London for the sea,
and was placed for administrative pur.
poses under the care of the managers
of the Forest gate School. She was
large ship of nearly 5000 tons burden,
and, lying solitary in the blight of the
river OFF Grays, was an object of inter
est to excutsionists on the river.
