THH Philadelphia Times is poking
ing a sharp stick into the ribs of the
Press, of the same city for publish
ing lottery advertisements.
GENERAL Crook has been gone long
enough to have caught the Indians
he went to catch, and to have been
caught himself by the red skins.
Which will it be? The Government
has a feeling of anxiety for Crook
THE Turkish government has mott
fed this government that the com
mercial treaty between the two gov

and after that date a tariff will be
imposed on all meat and lard, sent

A NEST of horsethieves has within
the past week been discovered at

THE Legislature adjourned on the
9Th, but the echoes of the farewell
speeches of the members had scarce
ly died out till they were summoned
in extra session by the Governor, so
that they may pass an apportionment
bill. They get so dollars a day for
extra session work.
The Ohio Republican State con-
rention last week met and nominal
ed state ticket. The resolutions
declare in favor of the maintenance
o. a tariff system that will provide Il
revenue for the government and at
the same time will protect American
producers and American labor
Az exchange, that is upto the times
with its observations, says: The sin
gle plank upon which the Democrats
are all agreed reads as follows: "Re-
solved, That the Democrats are in
favor Of turning all Republicans out
of Office and filing the vacancies with
Democrats" This is what they want
and would do if they had the power.
This will really be the great issue
made by them II the presidential
election
LAST Friday a ''snake feeder, or
H'dragon fly flew into a school house
in New York City. There were 2100
children in the building at their books.
The fly circled close to The heads of a
couple of1ittle girls, the girls scream
ed. that started others to scream, and
then came disorder, and that was
followed by a panic and pell nell
rush for the street. In the rush the
cry of FIRE was raised, the cry OF fire
got into the street, and that brought
q couple of thousand men and wom-
en- on q rush to the school house and
they trampled each other down like
crazy PEOPLE. 1t was a worse scare
than the pee-wees, and the boys gave
the Muddy Run people, in thisicounty
IT does not hurt Governor Butler,
that the old witch ridden college OF
Harvard refused to confer the degree
of L. L. D., on him, but it does the
management of the college an injury
that will be felt during the period OF
more than a generation. 1t has been
the habit to confer the degree on
each and every governor OF the Com
monwealth. There is nothing in the
confering Of the degree, it is an emp
ty courtesy, and in the refusal to
confer il ON the Governor, the man
agement showed how discourteous
they can be. They could consistent
ly have conferred it on a citizen OF
such varied mental requirement as
Governor Butler. They have con
fered time and again on citizens
that were empty pated compared with
Butler. When Harvard considered
the Goyernorship of the Common
wealth a position tit to confer a de-
gree on, it seemed like trifing act
to refuse it when Butler reached that
place in the state.
MEMBERS of the Legislature behav-
ed like a set of unruly boys, on the
day of adjournment They threw at
each other rulers, books, files of pa
pers, and shouted themselves hoarse.
Speaker Faunce called Mr.. Macl,in
to preside, Mackin was tormented as
if he had passed into the internal re-
gion. He took it good naturedly till
heavy mattress that the House
watchman slept on, was tumbled
down on him from the gallery over
the speakers chair. That act almost
took away his even temper, but that
did not satisfy the boisterous ones of
of the House, and member named
Center was sent into the gallery with
pitcher of water which he poured
down over Mackin's head. The act
enraged lIackin, lie rushed out and
caught Center and would have strang-
led him if friends had not taken him
away. Center Was locked in a room
so that Mackin could not get at him.
That performance settled the House.
and stirred the fighting blood of
Mackin, and it is feared that he will
ayenge himself on Center.
IT was counted that Governor Pat
tison would allow the members of the
