Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Net
Teton is to be removed. He may be per
mitted to resign, it is said, but the
chances are that his removal will be
recommended to the President by Secre-

said to have led the Secretary to decide
ON parting with his assistant.

SO complete were Senator Quay's
victories at the primaries in Armstrong,
Union and Snyder that Republicans in
other counties throughout the state
seem to have taken this as their cue, and
kept up the refrain ever since. County
after county has been declaring for the
junior senator's reelection.
So many fiattering Endorsements are
being passed, approving Quay's career as
soldier, a statesman and successful
party leader, that friends of John Dalzell
are already advising him to withdraw.
Some of the Dalzell boomers, in the face
of the most disheartening developments
in his canvass, however, insist upon his
remaining i'll the race, though privately
conceding that he has not ghost of
show to win.
The Ofhcial Figures.
The official figures from Armstrong
county give Senator Quay 1,746 major
ity over Dalzell. In view of the ac-
tivity of the corporations in Dalzells
behalf, the naturalization of hundreds
of Hungarians in order that they might
vote for the Pittsburger, at the dictation
of their employers, and the expenditure
of thousands of dollars in a desperate
effort to swell the Dalzell vote, Colonel
Quay's friends We're at one time fearful
that the county might be carried against
the Junior senator.
The farmers and old soldiers and in
dependent worRingmen generally, how
ever went to the polls and voted for
Colonel Quay almost to a man. They
thus gave stinging rebul1e to the inter
ference of corporate power in the councils
of the Republican party.
Pretty much the same methods were
resorted to in Dalzell's behalf in Union
and Snyder, but with the same result.
Senator Quay's majority in the popular
vote in Snyder was 1920.
| Lawrence county, where Colonel
Quay's old regiment was organized, has
since, by a popular vote, declared in nc
uncertain tone for the junior senator's
reelection.
Republicans of Luzerne, Clarion and
Clearfield also came to the front last
week with cordial, hearty and highly
fiattering commentators Of the Beaver
| statesman.

Luzerne DeoIares for Quay.

Luzerne Declares for Quay.
At the Luzerne county Republican
convention an indorseIn MT Of Senator
QUAY was passed amid great enthu-
sias1n. The resolutions, among other
things. declared "That the commanding
abilities of Senator Matthew Stanley
Quay in organizing and consummating
victory for the party in state and nation
have acquired for him an indestructlble
regard in the hearts of the Republicans
of this district"
While Republicans of the northeast
ern corner of the commonwealth were
recording their high appreciation OF
Senator QUAY, the west spoke out III a
no less unequivocal manner.
Clarion Republicans Speak Out.
Republicans of Clarion, in convention
assembled, eulogized the Junior senator
in almost every paragraph OF long
series of ringing resolutions.
The resolutions, among other things,
say ''that the cry Of 'bossism, as raised
by Democrats and their syinpathizers in
order to demoralize our party, and cause
dissension and disloyalty in our ranks,
should be disregarded, and will have no
effect on true Republicans. We hereby
fndorse and support those who have
rendered efficient service TO our party
in former contests, notable among
these, Hon NJ. 5. Quay, our present
United States senator, a leader worthy
of continued confidence and distin-
guished honor among Republicans. "
And further: "That in Hon M. S. Quay
we recognize an able statesman, an i'm
perial leader and loyal Republican; that
we indorse his course in the United
States senate, and declare him to be our
a1.afaa ffTs alaetfO11 tO that
honorable body"
ClearfieId Almost Unanimous.
= Clearfield county Republicans, joining
ia this spontaneous outburst OF enthusi
astio support of Senator Quay, met the
issue squarely in their convention on TIN
, same day. A disgruntled delegat'
l. sought to stem the tide by opposing tn
adoption of complimentary resolutions
but they were carried, with great cheer
ing, by the overwhelming vote of 81 to 3

Four DAYS on a RAFT.-The
schooner Amelia C.,which arrived .-at
Halifax, y. s, last Thursday
from Grand Banks, has on board
three men, the sole survivors
of the crew of the British bark
Hope. The Hope sailed from Nashs
Creek. \. B. August 10. bound for
Port Madoc, New South Wales. On
August -, when forty miles south of
Cape Race, she encounted a gale, dur
ing which she commenced to take
water, which, getting down on her lee
side, together with her heavy deck
load. threw her on her beam ends. An
effort was made to cut the decllload
adrift to right her, but while the mate
was cutting away the lashings the bark
suddenly turned completely Y over. The
crew all managed to get on the keel, but
were only there few minutes Wen IL
heavy sea dashed over tie upturned
vessel. CARRYING them all into the ocean.
A large number of deals from the deck
load were floating about, and on to
them the men scrambled. Three of the
men-boatswain Wm. Rees, and able
seaman Arthur Frank Joliife and John
Nicholas-managed to construct raft,
but others were not successful, and all
of them finally succumbed. The three
men named drifted about on their raft
for four days, during which they sight
ed vessels several times and made sig
nals, but it was not till the 25th that
the schooner Amelia c. saw and res
cued them. During the time the three
men were on the raft they suffered in
tensely, both from hunger and thirst,
and in order to keep their tongues
moist, Joliile cut the straps from his sea
boots into pieces, and these straps they
chewed. Just before being rescued,
they had about given up all hope, and
Nicholas had become so weak that he
could not cling to the raft himself, and
had to be held on by his comrades.

Both DUELLIsTs DEAD. The steam

details of desperate duel which oc-
Cured on board on her last trip. The
Sheffield left St Louis on Wednesday
week. When steaming up the Tennes-
see river Britton Johnson, of Eastport,
Tenn. and William Johnson, Of River
town. Ala, two roustabouts, became en-
gagged in a quarrel. Other members of
the crew interfcrred and trouble was
avoided temporarily. The two John
sons were not related and were bitter
enemies. Just before reaching New
Era, Tenn, on Saturday week, the
Johnsons met in the gangway on the
stern of the boat Both drew revolvers.
which they proceeded to use in q battle
that terminated in the death of both
men. VIII Tittrell, roustabout, and
the only witness of the shooting was
swinging in Il hammock just above the
gangwav. He tells the following story:
II saw the men when they came to-
gether They met over the hatchway
in the centre of the gangway, formed
by tiers of sacks of oats. Both men
drew their revolvers and shot at the
same time. Then they ran in and
clinched, keeping up rcd-hot exchange
of shots all the while When seven or
eight shots had been fired William
Johnson, looking like a maniac, his
clothing covered with blood. and his
eyes bulging out ofhis head, staggered
back, but, regaining his strength, he
rushed madly at his antagonist, Britton
Johnson, and, catching him around the
neck, he upturned his face and, plac-
ing his revolver close under his nose,
he pulled the trigger. His head was
almost blown OFF.
Terribly wounded as he was, Brit
ton staggered up against the sacks and
fired one more shot ut William, the
bullet taking effect in the head, pass
ing through his brain. Britton wheel
ed around and started to walk Oft, but
fell dead without uttering q word.
William also fell Later he was ap-
preached by his brother, who informed
him that Britton was dead. He raised
his head, smiled, turned over, and
died"

A young man in Bungo Province
slew his wife in order to secure her liver
with which to cure his mothers failing
eyesight. Some quack told him to try
chicken liver for his mothers blindness,
and when this failed suggested he get a
human liver, and declared the mother
must eat it raw. He determined to sac
riice his child and told his wife the
baby must die. She refused to permit
the sacrifice, but offered herselfinstead, d,

Then the husband cut out her liver, but
