His Term Expires.

The term Of Commodore F. NJ. Ramsay
as chief of the naval bureau of navigation
will expire on the 18th prox., and the gen.
eral expectation among his brother officers
is that he will be reappointed. He will.
however. reach the grade of rear admiral
early in the spring by the retirement of
Admiral Benham, and will probably be
given an important sea command. There
is strong impression that Capt Robley
Evans, naval secretary Of the light house
board. will succeed Commodore Ramsay as
the chief Of the navigation bureau.

1t is a well-known fact that this is the
season of the year when most of those who
desire to unite themselves in the bonds of
matrimony avail themselves of the oppor-

A year ago today there were fifty licenses

fortunate ones who had decided to live the
rest of their lives in that happy state.
1t is to be hoped that none of these have
reason to regret of their action.

Thought He Was a Bear.

Mrs. Keeler, whose husband works IN
the lumber woods, came to Kettle Creek
the other day expecting him to meet her
at the store and carry sack of flour three
miles to their home near there, the road
leading through heavy woods. Mr.. Keller
failed to arrive, and toward dusk his wife
shouldered the -four and started of alone.
About half way home she saw what she
supposed TO be her husband standing In
the road waiting for her. Hurrying to him
to give him piece of her mind, ominous
growls warned her that she was about to
lecture big black bear. With shrek
she dropped her sack of flour and took to
her heels toward Kettle Creek. She had
run about half a mile when she discovered
what she thought was another bear coming
toward her. She stopped in the road and
filled the woods with shieks that were
heard plainly at Kettle Creek. But this
bear was her husband and when she recov-
cred herself sufficiently to recognize the
fact she struck him a blow with her fist
between the eyes that knocked him flat in
the road and then promptly tainted. Her
husband had quite time fetching her to
but when he had succeed and she explain
ed matters they went together home. The
bear was gone but he had scattered the
contents of the -four sack along the road
for 20 yards.

THE CITIZEN
Improvemen, in Prison Construction.

In prisons built according to the old sys-
tenn, chances of escape by digging or cut
ting through the prison walls, doors, floors
ceilings are available to the prisoners, but,
by constant improvements in such struc-
tures. escape has been rendered more and
more difficult, and yet escapes frequently
occur from the most modern prisons.
The latest improvement in prison con-
struction, appears to furnish as nearly ao-
solute security as it is possible to obtain,
the result being secured in very simple
wav. and by the use of low-priced mater
ial.
prison constructed according to this
system not only offers great resistance to
any operation that will tend to destroy or
iniure it or reuder it less secure, but it also
affords ready means of indicating any
tampering wit h the structure and also OF
giving an alarm in case of an attempt be-
ing made to break out of or into the pris-
on.
The cells built according to this plan are
made entiraly of iron or steel pipes which
intercommunicate so that water or any
other fluid may be kept under pressure IN
them. With this construction, should
there be the slightest punctuae or break,
the small leak would at once give notice
of the tampering with the pipes through
the consequent reduction of pressure,
which actuates an alarm; so that, before
the operations necessary to an entrance in
to or escape from the locked cell could be
| fairly begun, the officers of the prison
could be on hand to investigate the cause
of alarm. The walls, ceiling and floor OF
each cell are composed of pipes. The door
which is also composed of pipes, carsles
| communicating Herewith lock, the parts
| of which are made tubular. The staple
or keeper of the lock, through which the
locking bar passes, is also made tubular.
In front of each series of cells Is arranged
a cage, which is also of the same construc-
ton. The tubular system of each cell Is
connected by pipe with pressure gauges
and an electric alarm operated by pressure
gauges at the warden's Office. In some
cases a small longitudinal opening is left
for the introduction of food.
The locks upon the doors are arranged
to be operated by pressure, the bolts be-
ing pushed by fluid acting upon piston.
ANY retrograde movement of the piston
due to diminution of pressure, would be
| indicated at the warden's Office upon the
pressure guage, and any considerable
movement of this kind would result in CIV
ing an alarm upon the electric bell.

How to Obtain Long Life.

Take life easy. Nothing prolongs life
like a cheerful disposition.
Make haste slowly. The snail outran
the hare and won the race.
Avoid all worry. Care wrinkles the
brow and dries up the fountain of life.
Don't get angry Every burst ofpsssior
shortens life's span one inch.
Be moderate in all things and temperate
in your habits. Remember, "sleep is ma
ture's kind restorer," and if you would live
long, sleep long.
Above all take care of yourself. If you
are not feeling well there is something
wrong and nature needs to be stimulated
in her work. The best physicians in the
country recommend Klein's Silver Age
and Duquense Rye for such a purpose.
They are for sale by dealers generally al
$l50 and $l25 per quart respectively. Send
to Max Klein, 80 Federal Street, Alleghe-
ny, Pa, for complete catalogue and
price-list of all kinds of liquor, mailed
free.

What's a Farm Title.

The question, "Wtat does a man buy
when he purchases the title to farmf" has
often been asked, but not sat isfactorily de-
termined. From the latest decisions on
the subject it is plain that he buys the
ground, of course, and all the buildings
erected on it, whether these are mentioned
or not. He also buys all the fences, but
not material once used, then taken down
and laid aside, nor material purchased fo1
new fence unless these are specifically
m mentioned. He also buys all adjunctS
necessary to farm, except the implements
and machinery. For instance, if there is q
pile of bean poles cut and once used fol
the purpose, these go with the farm; bu'
if cut and never used, they are the seller
property unless specified as sold. Stand
ing trees or trees that have fallen or beer
blown down go with the ground, but if cut
down and made into cord wood, they be
come personal property, and to 60 with
the land must be specified in the sale.

The following from an exchange
should be read and remembered by every
body: "Be careful how you speak OF
woman's character. The purity of woman
is the salvation of the race, hope of future
greatness and the redemption OF man.
Wipe out her purity and man sinks below
the waves of despair, with no star to guide
his life into channel Of safety. Think,
then, before you speak, and remember as
any hog can root out the fairest flower, so
the vilest man has often ruined the pur-
est woman's character"
All the counting is done by the woman
in the Ukraine, Russia When woman
discovers a man she would like to marry,
she visits him at his house, and tries to
charm him If he does not like her, he
leaves her and lives elsewhere until she
deserts his home.
