AT her fathers residence, in that place on
wednesday Of last week, in the twenty third
year of her age. The health of the decPase
had been gradually declining since the death
or her brother Robert. about year AGO but
unit recently strong hopes were entertained
of her recovery. A short time since she Wis
tied some friends in COnnellsville, her parents
cheriShing the hope that a change of climate
and scenery would be beneficial to her but
about week before her death she was
brought back to her home utterly prostratpd
and continued to grow weaker until at last
she calmly and peacefully passed away from
earth. During her long illness she displayed
a wonderful amount of patience and was re-
signed to her fate. She was a bright and at
tractive young lady, gifted with more than
ordinary intelligence, and was an ornament
to the social circle in which she moved and
adorned with her many virtues. The parents
OF the deceased have our hea rtfeIt sympathy
IN their great and irrepaTable bereavement

The absurd insinuaJion thrown out in some
quarters that the jury In the star route cases
tempered with on behalf OF the government, can
be very easily and effectually disposed OF by put
ting two or three short, plain questions. What
individual forming an integral part OF the govern
ment has or could have vital personal interest
In the conviction Of the defendants? BE- whom,
how, and by what authority could government be
represented In such an effort? Where and how
could the agent get the money with which to buy
up 1urymen? Apply these questions to the defense,
and see how quickly and entirely the nature Of
the case is changed,

The view taken by the Catholic church in regard
20 the question OF woman suffrage is doubtless
correctly II not authoritatvely expressed in late
editorial article In the Catholic Examiner. That
Journal says: "Women have nothing to gain from
mixing in politics, but they have much to lose.
Wherever stream OF pure water flows Into one
that's nrui1y, 1t may be noticed that the pure
water speedily becomes defled, while the other
continues as muddy before. Women who are
now pleading that the ballot shall be placed in
their hands in order that politics may be purified,
viii do well TO make a note OF this fact. Cleaning
the Augean stable OF politics is a work in which
we would prefer not to see our wives, mothers, or
sisters engaged"

OF all countries in the world the people OF France
are doubtless the most prosperous as a whole. A
recent call for loan OF twenty-five million francs
by the Panama Canal Company, resulted imam
0fer OF more than three times the sum required
long before the time named for closing the books
had expired. The notable feature OF the case was
the fact that the subscriptions nearly all in
small sums, and from shop-keepers, artisans, and
small farmers.

times covered with a rash resemb>
ling scarlet fever. This is part of
the disease and ought not to be mis-
taken for erysipelas nor treated by
iodine or other external application
for fear of the disease changing its
location to some internal organ, such
as lungs or brain, and perhaps Gauss
