LOthrop's Museum.

Lothrop's ever popular Providence
Museum contained two large audiences
yesterday afternoon and evening, who
witnessed Harveys five act drama entitled
"a Ring of Iron" The stock company at
the Museum is strong aud able one
and under the personal direction
of Mr.. III. Percy Meldon the
rendering of this play was especially good.
"A Ring Of Iron" is new here, but as the
parts are so well adapted TO the members
of the company, it was deemed wise to
have it produced. The play was nicely
staged, the scenery was good and the
acting of such merit that the
house will undoubtedly continue 20 draw
large audiences during the remainder of
the week. Miss Tucker and Mr.. Barrn-
ger are both well known. It may simply
be said that they played their parts with
their usual strength showing the result of
careful study. The rest of the company
bore up the reputation they had gained
very handsomely playing their parts nicely
and in an intelligent manner.

LAWS MADE BY MONOPOLY
MEMBERS.

Horses and cattle very often get
on the track of railroads, and are
oIttimes killed. In such an event
no damages can be had of the rail-
road company, but under law en-
acted by majority of Members OF
the Legislature, who are sent to
Harrisburg by railroad corporations,
the farmer or owner of the horse or
COW is made liable for any damage
that might result to the railroad
company on account of the animal
being on the track. This same rail
road Legislation has enacted another
law relieving the great railroad cor
poration from fencing in their tracks.
Should the farmer and the laboring
man of Sullivan county desire to
continue and strengthen this law,
vote for the Railroad candidate for
Member-M. J. Lull. Should you
conclude to better the condition OF
affairs, vote for ID. 7. Huckell. Mr..
H. is man in whom you can depend
will do what he thinks best for the
people and all tue money in the city
of Harrisburg could not change his
vote. The monopoly men would
not dare to approach Mr.. Huckell
for the purpose of buying his vote.
While on the other hand should Mr.
Lull be successful they would not
be under any obligations of calling
upon him as he goes there an en-
ployee Of the Reading railroad and
will serve in their interest. MIR. L..
would be unjust to his employees to
do other than this and when our
people are lead to believe different,
they are entertaining that which is
wide of the mark. 1t is this rail,
road clique of Members who have
broush lit about this obnoxious laws
against the farmer and laborers and
it does not seem possible that the
intelligent citizens of our county
will continue this sort of laws by
sending a man to Harrisburg known
to be in league with this gigantic

A Moon Sign Farmer.

There is farmer in Lehigh conn
ty whose work is entirely mapped
,ut with reference to the moon.
Fence posts are planted when the
moon ''points up" so they are kept
from sinking out of sight. The
roofs OF his buildings were put Oh
when the moon 'fpointed down" so
as to prevent the nails from pullir q
out of the shingles. Wheat is sown
in the fdark of the moon" TO hide
the seed from the birds and worms.
He invariably butchers his hogs
when the moon is iull, otherwise he
claims that the meat would shrivel
up in the pan. The quantity OF
rainfall, according to this moon-awed
farmer, can be accurately judged
for Il month when the new moon ap-
pears. If the horn points down
that means wet and when the cres.
ent lies on It's back, dry weather
will prevail.

WONDERS IN A WINDOW.
Minnesota Catholics Excited
Over q Strange ApparitiOn.

WINoNA, MINI. Sept. 30.-The
peculiar manifestations in window
of the village church, of Canton,
Mimi, which have been creating
considerable excitement among the
Catholics in that section, are to bc
scientifically examined by Bishor
Cotter. Several weeks ago the il
habitants of Canton were startle'
by the announcement that portrait
had by Divine means been imprint
ed on window of the Catholic
Church there. At first the appari-
tion appeared to consist Of woman
with an infant in arms, and at times
j, dim halo was discernible about her
head. The story then took th'
form that this was portrait Of the
Virgin Mary and Christ child, and
the crowds Of visitors increased ten
fold. Paralytic cripplcs and other
afflicted persons came IN droves,
and after glimpse of the pictures,
threw away their crutches, exclaim-
inc that they were cured.
The window, which is in the north
gable of the church, was removed,
and the Bishop brought it to
Winona, where he will give it a
thorough examination in company
with olher prominent Catholic
clergymen. Nineteen pairs of
crutches are nailed to the church
walls, the result of alleged cures
performed by the Virgin Mary,
whom the pilgrims firmly believe is
present and helps the sick who
come to the church.

tion of abandoning his former
domicil, and taking another as his
sole domicil.
These principles enable us now to
dispose of the first of the two classes
into which the stated case divides
these students, viz: "Those who
support themselves, or are assisted
pecuniarily by persons other than
their parents, are emancipated from
their fathers families; have left the
home of their parents and never in
tend to return and make it perm
anent abode" Having, as the case
states, come to Allentown for no
other purpose than to receive a col
leglate education, and intending TO
leave after graduating, they have
not lost their home domicil, and
could vote there on returning to it
though they should not re-enter
their fathers house.
Emancipation from their fathers
family and independent support, and
the leaving Of the home belonging
to their parents, have not forfeited
their own domicil. Their fathers
house is not necessarily their home,
but the place is where it is. Though
not in the bosom of that family, the
place of their residence is not lost
to them until they have voluntarily
changed it and found new home
Upon the terms of the stated case, it
cannot be said they have abandoned
their original home, and actually
obtained another. The second class
needs nc comments. They are
those students "who are supported
by their parents, visit their parents
home during vacation. and may or
may not return there after GRADUATE
ing" 1t is clear as to both classes
the college is not their home. They
are not members of the community
among whom they soiourn. They
have no common interest do not
intend to live with or cast their lot
among them. They have no proper
motive to interfere in their local af
fairs. On no proper principle of a
true residence should the student
vote to-day and fasten on the com-
munity officers whom the majority
do not desire, then graduate to-
morrow and be gone.
The great underlying principle OF
republic is, that men should be
permitted to govern themselves, but
not to constrain others. Yet this
would be the result of suct a shift
ng vote, which like the Parthian
arrow, pierces as he WHO casts it
tlees. There are vague notions of
liberty and personal rights, which
often impress the mind, and lead it
to incline against what may seem to
he a restraint. A man = man

is that which is regulated by laws
