There is strong feeling in the public
mind against the elevation of Bennett to
the bench, 1t arises first from his lack
OF experience in the trial of court cases,
and next from the fact that he is a
cousin of Judge Rice. Two blood rela-
tives sitting as Judges in the same court,
is something that the plain people do not
want. Vote for Lynch.-Ne'csdedler.

High Constable Houser would perform
his duty by walking along Broad Street
about II P. NJ. any night, and taking
charge of the cows which wander around
at will.-Speaker.
Hazleton is town which is going to
vote upon the question of being incor-
porated as third-class city. Its papers
try to have outsiders believe it is in
tensely metropolitan. But they occa-
sionally make slip like the above and
speak of the place as it is. Broad is its
principal street and cows wander upon it
at will every evening. And such town
wants city charter Well it ought to
have one. Perhaps it would induce the
people to discard their countri6ed airs
and compel the cows to seek other pas
lures than the grass of Broad Street
tStill, we wish our neighbor success in its
aspirations. Freeland will soon be with
syou. Annexation of the Points, South
D Heberton, Woodside and Birvanton in
w92. Incorporation in '93. That is the
oneeling over here, and Hazleton must
ncush forward if it wants to be the
city Of the Lehigh region.

IRBLAND'S MISGOVERNMENT.
Sometimes figures are more eloquent
than words. The new official census
of Great Britain shows that while
fifty years ago there were 9,195, ,124
souls in Ireland, there are now only
4, ,7O6, 161 souls-a loss of about three
and half millions of population in
that period, 100000 of which are cred
tied to the decade just passed. And
the most striking feature of this state
of facts is that the north of the island
is greater loser than other parts of
the island. In the last ten years the
number of abandoned homesteads and
dwellings in all Ireland has increased
IL per cent. The Irish land bill, if
there be any virtue in it, passed none
too soon. 1t will take much good gov.
ernment to replace in small part what
bad government has wantonly de-
stroyed. The evil done can never be
fully atoned for.

Great Are.

TARRYTowN, N. j., Feb t0.-Edward
Parke, the oldest living inmate Of the
Westchester aims house, died at the age
of l02 years yesterday. He was born a
East Chester, Westchester county. He
had been an inmate of the almshouse for
over thirty-six years. Park was son
OF wealthy family. He was given a
liberal education, and was graduate OF
an eastern college. When his father
died he was left considerable
money. He soon spent his
inheritance In iiotous living,
and, becoming a victim OF alcohol
ism, he was lowered to pauper. His
relatives and friends Stunned him, and
his incessant use OF liquor finally took
away his reason. He was sent to the
insane ward of the aims house TO be
treated. A year after he had entered
the institution he regalned his mind and
was discharged as cured Feeling his
degradation. he begged the superinten-
dent OF the institution To allow him To
remain, as he had no friends to whom he
could go who would give him help. He
remained around the institution, and
soon became fixture 10 the place. He
worked necessarily around the farm and
aims house up To within few years ago,
when old age enfeebled him. He was
given the comforts OF the institution.

OrTUAwA, Ia, Feb. l0.-~L. G. Purdy,
the American Express agent at Abba,
who alleged that New Years he was
bound and robbed OF $500, has been ar
rested for embezzlement and bound over
10 the courts. The complainant Is Geo.
MeBnrney, the artificial limb manufae-
turer OF Abba who claims that remit
tance of $3.50 sent through the American
Express last August failed TO reach him.
and that when Purdy was questioned
about II said he never received IL. Since
the alleged robbery an investigation OF
the books show that the package was re-
ceived, and Purdy admits 1t, saying the
money became misplaced la the safe. and
through negligence he forgot all about 1t
until reminded by the superintendent.
Purdy thinks the money was still In the
safe when II was robbed, and his wife
testitles 10 having seen package
marked $3.50 therein few days before
the robbery. The agent has acted very
strangely at times, and his loose trans
actions viii try to be accounted for on
the ground OF insanity.
