and Weidman, handed down a decision in
the injunction suit of the Shenandoah Water
and Gas Company against the borough of
Shenandoah dissolving the injunction.
Judge Bechtel handed down a very
lengthy written opinion reviewing all points
in the case and setting forth the grounds
upon which the decision is given against the
water company. Judge Weidman also
handed down a Y written opinion, but it is a
brief one.
The opinions hold hat all papers and pro-
ceedings preliminary to the special election
held last June to increase the borough in
debtedntss were legal; that the election was
held in a legal manner, and it was proper to
hold it under the Baker ballot law.
The effect of the decision is that the Dor
ough Council may proceed to issue bonds foi
the water works and Quinn & Kerns, the
contractors, may proceed with their work.

Cell 36 is a fair illustration of the
furnishings of other cellrooms. In
this one there arc eleven photographs,
chromos, and steel engravings framed
and hanging on the walls. There are
fifteen books of various kinds, a slate,

hopeless disadvantage in this age of
free schools when everybody can read

indeed, it ever had any. The girl
bachelor of to-day is a well-poised,
independent, generally self-support-

in matrimony the chief end and aim
OF feminine existence and who finds
in The cOmpanionship of other women

many congenial spirits. Should she

A Remedy of General Utility.

1t is among the follics of which the manu-

guilty, to term their medicines "panaceas." or
to claim for them the quality of panaccas.
There is no such thing as q "panacea." which
means q remedy adapted to all diseases. This
absurdity has never been perpetrated by the
proprictors Of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.

Cost of Prisons.

The statement made by one of the Or
ators before the Prison Congress, that
the cost of keeping criminals in this
country amounts to $4OO,OOO,OOO annu-
ally, ought to set people thinking. That
is an enormous sum of money to be ex-
pended for any purpose. 1t would pro-
vide bread for million homes, it would
give substantial aid to all the charities
of the world, it would soften the burden
of taxation if it could be saved, it would
give mighty impetus to educational
work of moral reform if it could be
turned in that direction, or it would
create new industries which would give
