The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1882-01-25


The Rev. Edward Palmer, Of Barn
WE'LL s. O., now in the ninety.third
year Of his age, being unable TO attend
the late meeting Of the synod Of South
Carolina, wrote a letter, in which he
said: "At my advanced age-just closing
up my ninety-third year, accompanied
by the usual infirmities and failings Of
protracted life--I am unable to &C.
complish all that an earlier period of
time would fit one to perform. 1t may
not be out of place, however, to state
that ever since my resignation of the
pastorate in 1876 I have been able to
preach once each Sabbath to the little
destitute church at Barnwell- home
of my only daughter-during summer
months, visiting, as 1 have usually
done, my two sons at New Osleans and
Mobile the winter season. begin
sensibly to feel the witherings of age,
and cannot hope, even if in6ulged with
prolonged life, to do much OF actual
labor. God has been very kind in

to do the little have done or attempted
to do, for which / desire TO feel pro.
foundly thankful. May that little have

tion easily answered. They make them.
Instruments weighing rs much as nifty
pounds have been made under the very
eyes Of the officers, and they we're none
the wiser for it. If man is employed
about iron-workiDg machinery, he will
find time to manufacture jacks, JIM
mics, levers, bars, keys, and other i'm.
plements. Very often these tools are
the finest specimens of workmanship,
and any artisan might be proud to own
them as his handiwork Complete
burglars kits have been manufactured
in the prison and smuggled outside to
do service in cracking" banks.
One generous-hearted convict pro-
posed to liberate half the prisoners in
the institution. He procured q piece
of gas pipe and made from il key to
fit the locks of the cell doors. He had
planned TO spring the lever Of his cell
with jimmy, thus releasing himseh,
and to unlock as many doors as he
could with the key before he was dis
covered. Then he anticipated leading
the men against the guards and fight
ing his way to liberty. The key was
found in the possession Of the ssnguine
prisoner before he had an opportunity
to use it. In the Office of the agent
and warden are two jimmies remarkable
for their fine construction. The handles,
which can be detached, are turned in
fanciful shape, and to any burglar the
tools would be rare prize. Desperate
means are not infrequently re-
sorted to in attempting escape.
Several times fire has broken
out in the prison, and has been found
to be the work OF convicts. There is q
fire brigade composed of picked men,
who are supposed to be Trustworthy,
but has been shown that they cannot
be relied upon. At nearly every Gre
inside the walls the prisoners have out
the hose and done everything in their
power to advance the flames, in the vain
hope that the whole institution would
burn down.
The most despised creature in the
prison is "squealer," as the convicts
term a prisoner who learns of plans to
escape and reveals them. If he is
known TO be tale-bearer he is net only
ostrscised by the others, but life is made
as miserable for him as possible.

The PostotIlce in America.

The postoffice existed in America
from its earliest settlement. At the be-
ginning it was merely a receptacle in
the coffee house. There letters that
arrived from abroad were deposited,
and then taken by those to whom they
were addressed, or delivered by neigh
bors. in the records of the general
court of Massachusetts for 1859, we find
that notice abe given that Richard
Fairbanks, his house in Boston, is the
place appointed for all letters which
are brought beyond the seas, or are TO
be sent thither, to be left with him; and
he is to take care that they are TO be
delivered or sent according TO the direc-
tions; and he is allowed for every letter
penny, and must answer all mis-
carriages through his own neglect in

The German Baptists, or Thinkers,
have 710 churches, 1865 ministers and
$4,000 communicates.
The labors of the Rev. DIR. Speer
among the Chinese in Chicago give
promise of good results.
In the last ten years the number of
churches of all persussions in Chicago
has increased from 156 to ais.
There are said to be ITO theological
seminaries in this country belonging to
the evangelical denominations.
The Baptist Examiner says that the
ebb and flow in (Baptist) pastorate is
incessant, though subject to no known
lew.
The total membership of the German
Reformed church in 1879 was 154,742;
in 1880, 161, ,002, an increase or gain of
$3.50, or nearly four per cent.
There are eiGhty-four students in the
Episcopal General Theological semi
nary in New York city, from twenty
FIVE dioceses and twenty colleges.
The Methodist Church Extension So
ciety received the past year $3.50, ,322,
an increase of upward of $27, ,000 The
number of churches aided by donations
during the year was 313.
In Nebraska the Presbyterians have
eighty-two missionaries, 124 churches

nearly twice as many missionaries.

Women Xantad.

Wyoming's want is women. We want
women here, partially to even up the
population and partially to marry. Our
Territory is suffering more now for
choice styles of young and middle-aged
women than for anything else. We
need them in all departments of in
dustry where women may be employed,
and also in our homes and by our fire.
sides. There are hundreds of lonely
men in Wyoming who are doing well
financially and who would willingly
rush into matrimony if there were mat
rimony enough to go around. 1t is the
saddest feature of our wide Western
country at present. The over-populated
East, where young man may pay for
ice cream or oysters for three girls st a
time, ought to contribute somc of its
wealth of girls to this desolate land,
where there is only one woman to five
or six men, and where life is o hollow
mockery.
We sometimes wish that nature had
designed us for hired girl instead of
an editor so that we could have been
independent. In this country ga hired
girl" is only another name for affluence
ana nnanc1al Stability.
Twenty-Five dollars per month and
board makes the poor cringing editor
green with envy. And yet there are
not enough girls in this country to do
half the work. A man lives ont half his
days and at last secures wife, only to
find that the latter part of his career
will be devoted to securing a servant
girl for her.
It's tough.
Life g too brief to be trifed away in
this manner. One friend of ours who
has been reared in luxury has been
without a girl for two months, and al
though he has offered all kinds of in
ducements, he has been compelled to
make the beds and do the chamber
work, while his wife did the washing
and cook the meals.
Let the man who never tried it, rise
at o'clock, dress five children in the
subdued light of early morning, then
cook his breakfast. eat it and go down
town for couple of months, and he will
allow the girl that will work for him
the use of his upright piano and take
her with him to the theater. Why, it
has arrived at such stage here in Lara
mie that when a man asks one of his
neighbors if he knows of servant girl
that he can get, the mob turns loose at
him and laughs at him till he wishes he
was dead.
1t is not an uncommon oce drrence
for girl to come West, work at regular
wages two or three years, and then, as
an heiress, marry bloated capitalist
and settle down.
1t is horrible fact that unless some.
thing is done to prevent the centraliza-
tion of capital among the servant girls
of Wyoming, revolution cannot be
avoided.
There is not man within the sound
of our voice that will not admit with
tears in his eyes and both suspender
buttons trembling and to tering to their
very foundation, that such is the case
boomerang.
