Keep tho Buildings Painted.
TeleglaDh

The manufacturers of paints keep almost
every description prepared ready for uso,
and in suitable cans to be transported,
with such brushes as may be needed for
domestic purposes. Some of the paints,
which would answer very we'll for outside
work, can be purchased at very moderate
prices. Hence there is no reason that
there should bs found among farm
dwellings and Outhouses SO many of them
going to decay for want Of little paint,
which the owner or his boys could
readily apply without difficulty, thus not
only adding to the general appearance of
the buildings, but greatly tending to their
preservation. In comparison with this the
cost OF the paint and labor is mere trife
and not worth counting. It is the wood
work on the buildings which suffers,
presenting most unsightly appearance,
and begins carly to decay. A good
coat of paint as often as may be needed
would preserve it for at least twice the
length of time that would be the case in
the absence of paiut. This fact is worth
serious consideration, as it will bo found
that, instead Of causing All expenditure OF
money that many must think is thrown
away, to look at the shabby appearance
of their buildings, it will provo an absolute
saving. It should be remembered that
money wisely spent in cases like this is
dOubly saved.

Gu TO THE PEOPLE.

Another Leading Democratic Journal for
Aajournment
Bellefonte watchman, Dem.
The Democrats House has offered all it
can or dare offer.
1t has, in order to fulfil the purposes for
which the extra session was called, gone
further than it should and offered more
compromises and concessions, than fair
ness to its own party admits of.
In fact it has gone to the verge of
treason to the Democracy in its efforts to
obey the mandates of the constitution, and
all without result.
The Stalwart Senate insolently refuses
to consider any offer-defiantly rejects all
concessions-a6solutsly and positively re-
fuses to do anything.
What then can the Democratic House
do?
To adjourn finally is to allow the con-
stitution to be over ridden and the rights
of the people to be denied it is to give
up the battle and say those who defy the
constitution and care naught for the
public veal are stronger than the people.
To continue in session is but to continue
the expense which the tax payers in the
end must pay, and which the very men
who refuse to do anything will pocket.
To US there seems but one way out.
Refer the whole question to the people
by adjourning until the voters con be
heard at the polls.
Let the House pass a resolution adjourn
ing until November or December, and 10
pay during the recess, and if the Senate
refnses to concur, let the governor pro
rogue both bodies until tho people can he
heard in this matter.
Let this question be put fairly before
the voters of the state in tho coming cam
paign, and we venture the assertion that
there will not be enough of Stalwartism
left, after the election, to make basis for
half dozen districts.

Likely TO Meet IN Lancaster Next Year.
The second days session Of the Grand
Lodge Knights of Pythias in Scranton
closed without much advancement in the
work for which it assembled. The morn
ing was devoted to the exemplification of
the discussion on the report of the COM
mittee on law. The debate continued
throughout the day without being dis
posed of, and will be renewed. A ballot
was taken on tho Office of Grand outer
guard, but failed and another will be
taken. 1t is probable that E. b. Emery
of Spring City. Chester county, will be
elected the sessions of the grand lodge
will probably be continued till Friday
evening, az it will he impossible to dispose
of its business before that time, and it
seems probable night sessions will be
necessary to carry them through by that
time. Lancaster will likely be chosen as
the place Of next meeting.

Active by score of to2. McCaffery
uDpired the game, though Griffith, who
was officially assigned to the game was
present but did not act on account of sick
ness. Manager Sullivan of the Anthracite
protested against the game being counted,
but after decision the association decided
that the game should count in favor of the
Active.
The game which was to have been
played on the 18th, but which the Anthra-
cite refused TO play on account of dissatis-
faction with the umpire was declared void,
and the two clubs were directed to settle
the dispute by playing another game at
Pottsville.
In secret session several other contested
games were decided. The Harrisburg
Quickstep of July 3Oth, in which the latter
club protested against tho Harrisburg club
playing Blakely, who had not ben re-
leased from the Athletics, was Or
dered to be played over. The two
disputed Harrisburg Brooklyn games were
allowed to stand IS already decided.
The Anthracite Brooklyn two to one
game in Brooklyn, was also
allowed to remain as decided. The
Trenton claimed a game from the
Quickstep on account OF the iatter's non
appearance on August 18th, but the game
was ordered to be played in the future.
Richard Pearce, of the Brooklyn, was
elected umpire to succeed Burt, Nc
