IT is amazing on what slight
grounds some people base their ex-
pectations of what they hope will
turn out TO be true. The New York
tSUn, for instance makes the remark
that 1.-THE statement of so high an au-
thority as Col. Alexander Mcclure
that Republicans are generally COM
planning of the waste of the public
money in the entertainments given
Gen. Grant, is striking indication
that Grant is not so very popular i'm
his own party" Quoting Alexander
Mcclure as "high authority among
Republicans will flatter neither him
them. The Sun would not probably nor
do SO except for its expressed "hope to
see this tide of disapprobation swell"
1t thinks that if it did it might save
the Republican party and the country
the infiction upon them of Grant as
candidate. The Sun may with propri-
ETY., we think, retire from a contest i'm
which it stands little chance of ulti-
mate success, s,-that of opposing Grants
nomination. That seems to be almost
a foregone conclusion. He has proven
that he possesses hold upon the
popular heart never enjoyed by any
eX-President, perhaps, since the day of
Washington, and Irrespective of poll
tics, would bring with him in case of
his election sense of assumed political
peace and quietude, which is is posi-
ble for no other man, of any party, to
produce. His nomination would
unite and solidify the Republicans as
that of no other could, while thous-
ands of Democrats would not object
even by their votes to seeing him
again made President. The cry of
intended Ceserism, Imperialism and
that the election of Grant would be a
step toward tnrning the government
into monarchy is all foolishness.
There is already tendency in that di-
rection, however remote and carefully
concealed it may be among some of
the leaders of the Republican party
and we believe that while Grant
would remain in office he would frown
upon and oppose it to the utmost of
his personal and official influence. -

DEATH IN THE JAIL.-For several
weeks Sarah Grey, young woman of
seventeen or eighteen years of age,
the mother of n child about three
months old, has been confined in the
county Jail, and at the recent term of
court was convicted of fornication, but
the Judge taking pity upon her owing
to her helpless condition, ordered that
she be dismissed and sent to her home
in Knox township. This privilege
she did not take advantage of but re-
manned with the jailor, Mr.. l.. c.
Smith, helping to do the work of the
family. Last Sunday morning, at
about five o'clock, she raped at Mr..
Smiths door and asked to come in,
saying that her baby was dead. She
was admitted and Mr.. Smith sum
moned physician, but it was too late,
death having already taken place,
caused no doubt by strangulation, done
accidentally by the mother in her anX-
iety to make it comfortable. The
Sheritf provided coffin for the corpse
and it was decently inferred in the
old grave yard on Sunday evening. The
mother, we understand, Is an illiterate
creature has not a particle of education
and is the victim of some scoundrel
who should have languished in prison
in her stead, Hers is case that calls
for sympathy, but we are afraid that il
will be given in such particles as to be
entirely valueless, even protesting
christians wrapping themselves up in
self-righteousness so closely that char.
ity cannot find its way out to such
poor creatures as her, who is hardly
capable of proper appreciation of her
pitible condition. - Brookville Re
publican.

PETERSON'S MAGAZINE for January

ber it is: triumph Of art, literature
and fashion. The principal steel en-
craving, "a Message from the Sea"

panion, "The Runaway Pair" which
illustrates story by Frank Lee Bene-
dict, are alone worth the price of the
number. The double size, colored
steel fashion plate is unrivaled, and
will tascinate all the ladies. Then
there is large colored pattern, in Art
needlework, a really superb affair, and
such as would cost. at retail store,
fifty cents. We do not eXaggerate in
saying that the January number is a
perfect gem of lOveliness. The stories
are unusually good even for "Peter-
SON" Mrs. Ann ). Stephen begins Ii
powerfully written nOvelet, Lost y
which is in her very best vein. In
addition, there are stories by Mrs. +.

Dampen the Air Now.
lam. Agriculturist for JAM

We can badly too often suggest the
importance of providing ample mois-
ture in all rooms heated by stoves,
furnaces, steam pipes or hot water
pipes. There are sound scientific
reasons for this, as well as in the re-
suits of practical experience. AS
stated in "Short notes on Air" above,
every degree of heat added to the at
mosphere i'm room gives it a power of
absorbing and secreting moisture. The
air in room 20 10y 20 feet and 10 feet
high, at 800, holds, secrets, about II
pints of water. The same air heated
to 100, secrets upwards of two quarts
of water, and unless this is supplied,
it is hungry for more water, absorbs it
from every accessible source, from the
furniture, from our bodies, and es-
pecially from the breathing organs
the mouth, throat, and lungs leaving
them dry and husky. Therefore,
every time the air in the room is
changed by the admission of fresh,
cold air, and heated to 100, two quarts
of water should be evaporated into the
room. The strong objections some
have to warm-air heaters have arisen
mainly from this cause. In using
furnace heaters we always put into
the hot air chamber extra water-pans
besides any that are supplied by the
manufacturers, and take good care to
always have them filled with water.
In stove-heated rooms there should
usually be an evaporating surface of
water equal to one square foot for
every II feet square of flooring, and
more if the water is not on hot place
enough to keep it rapidly evaporating.
Plants in room are mainly destroyed,
or have a sicSly growth because the
warm air becomes too dry and sucks
out the very juices of the plants. The
"house plants''-"olive" or otherwise
suffer similarly. In warm room,
Il large towel frequently wet and
wrung so as not to drip, and hung
over chair back near the stove, will
make marked difference in the COM
Portable feeling and healthfulness of
the atmosphere.

a TERRIBLE FALL.-A young mar
ried man named George Richards,
residing in the "block- house." in
West Clearheld, near the lower bridge,
and who was employed as carpenter
at the new tannery buildings, met
with an unfortunate and rather seri
Gus mishap on Tuesday forenoon Of
last week. He was working at the
roof of one of the buildings when he
accidentally fell to the frozen ground
below, distance of about thirty feet,
alighting on his head and shoulders.
Both of his arms were severely irac-
tured and he was hurt internally,
having had several hemorrhages. He
was Immediately carried to his home,
where a physician gave his injuries
the necessary attention, and his re-
cOvery is probable, although the result
OF the accident cannot yet be deter
mined.-Clearfield Republican.

returned home about II O'Clock, re

sisted her to bed. The unfortunate
