Laughter.

The world grows more tender-hearted as
it grows older. If we examine the sports
that have amused our ancestors we find
them more and more cruel as we trace them
backward in history. Even the gladiatorial
shows were not so cruel as some of the
butcheries of prisoners that amused the pre-
ceding generations. The bear baitings and
bull fights OF later age were less cruel
than the arena.
Prize tights that amused their grand
fathers disgust men of to-day. The world
got too soft hearted to laugh at a wounded
gladiator, afterward too gentle to enjoy the
writings of wounded bulls or bears or bad
gers. Refined people turned their backs
upon such cruelties. and they were only
patronized by the brutal and vulgar.
Shakspeares age was a cruel though
heroic one. as may be seen in his plays
written to amuse the people of his time, to
hold the mirror up to it to show it's form
and pressure. Shylock was made to be
laughed at. The part was originally played
by a low comedian in red wig-some
Francis Wilson or Nat. Goodwin of the for
gotten past. In that age the sufferings of
the Hebrews inspired mirth. The language
OF Shylock that we find so touching and
pathetic used to be considered laughter
provoking.
There is something cruel in laughter,
after all; somebody writhes while the rest
are merry. The wit and the butt go to-
gether. and the butt feels the keen thrust
none the less because his malicious enemy
smiles. If we turn our eyes inward upon
our laughter and it's sources. we find that
in most cases it is discovery of our own
superior or happier position. or else the dis
cOvery of the weakness. folly or failure of
some one else, which makes an agreeable
contrast for us. When we seriously think
of that. things do not seem so funny.
Funny, isn't it?--Texas Siftings.

This meeting was looked forward to with consid-
cradle interest it would be the ion of the

the previous meeting had been read and approved,
the roll was called and each member responded
with his quotation in accordance with the rule
adopted at the previous meeting allowing mem.

long as the quotation was in keeping with the OBJ.
Jects OF the q. l.. S. c. ct had also been requested
that each member write out his quotation and
hand it to the secretary which was very generally
responded to- The quotations were excellent
and this feature of our meetings showed marked
improvement. The regular order of business was
dispensed with, and the election of officers was
proceeded with. The old officers retired, and two
members of the circle were called fill the offices

Walter Mosteller of LaPorte twp,
who was arrested for larceny some
two months since and placed in the
county Jail awaiting trial at this
December term escaped from Jail on
the night of Nov. goth. His es-
cape was made through the door of
his cell by burning off the wood
work of the frame of the door and
filing off the iron through which the
bolt entered. He undoubtedly used
the stove poker for burning the
woodwork as it renamed in the
stove in the morning. For fling the
iron, it is the opinion of the public
that he used the main spring of a
watch made into file. He poison-
ed Warden Chase's dog as ne was
found to be very sick the following
morning. This we presume was
done to prevent him from barking
and arousing the inmates of the
house. A sheet of paper was found
on the table with cross bones, sculls
and coffins pictured, and with writ
ing to the effect that whoever pur.
sued him and overlook him would
meet with similar fate. This, how
ever, did not have the desired effect
of soaring our officials as they made
every effort to capture him ON Fri

That communication in the Du-
shore Gazette last week commenting
on the Prohi. election table of 1889
and 1890 as was given in the Re-
PUBLICAN in our issue of Nov. 18th.
signed Sullivan County Prohibition
ist," was amusing in the extreme.
The county Prohibition vote of 1889
was 1873 in 1890, II, Prohi. claims
that the large vote of 1899 was the
result OF promises made by those of
the old party who took part in their
"Forksville Convention" during that
year and that the IL votes of this
year, is on solid basis and, from this
fall off vote they will progress to
success.
1t was our wish to make this arti-
Gle short and had closed here, but
after reading Prohi's communica-
ton over the second time have con-
cluded to say 2 few words in refer
ence to that ''Forksville Convention"
of 1889. The facts of that event are
as follows: Their organization was
visited by members of both the old
parties and few of this class enter~
tanned the body by addresses &c.
Among those who spoke upon this
occasion were Ex-county Chairman of
the Democratic Standing Committee,
"A. l.. Grim Esq. In his long adj
dress he said that the Republican
party were lambs dressed IN wolves
clothing while the Democratic party
was the genuine article (wolves) }
Mr.. Grim's remarks were listened to
with marked attention and after he
had finished his sayings, was follow
ed by Il. A. Conklin who made a few
remarks after which it was Re
solce0 that all present regardless of
party principles who would agree to
vote the State Prohi. ticket at the
1889 election might have voice in
the Convention. This motion was
carried and then it was left to the
discretion of the voter as to wheth-
er he desired to accept of the invita-
tion or not. Mr.. Grim was the first
to volunteer and from him it went
the rounds. We were the last and
not wishing to be the only oppos-
ing vote in the Convention also vol
unteered to vote (JohDson) at the
Fall of 1889 election. This business
being completed a motion was made
as to whether it was advisable to
place in nomination a full county
Prohibition ticket. A vote was
taken and resulted in the negative
| and the convention adjourned.
Now DIR. Prohi. we have only
this to say in reference to that gath
ering, if there were any brains minus
there it was on your side of the
house and the more you stir it up
the more ridiculous it makes you ap-
pear.
This is all we shall say upon this
subject.

The borough council, as yet, have
taken no steps in the direction of
building new side walk to the new
school building. Indications point
very strong to the fact that the
children will be obliged to wade
through mud and snow to their
daily labors, this winter. With this
necessity left undone the enterprise
is just about half completed and the
school directors, half of whom sit in
the council chambers and make our
ordinances, are entitled to some cred
it while much has been left undone
which is deemed a necessity by the
majority of our people, for the pre-
serving OF the children's health.

Gently constructed across the river

the June food of 1889. This struct-

tole was charged, which was de-
trimental to the business interests of
Muncy, hence the people there urged
and have been successful in the
erection of'a new county bridge.
