SOCIETY OF LAPoRTE, PA.

The Triennial National Council
of Congregationalists, recently in
session at Minneapolis, adopted a
strong report on the subject of
Temperance, from which we quote
the following:
The great obstacle which con-
fronts US in every line of moral or
social progress is intemperance. If
we are striving to alleviate the con-
ditions of tue poor, we fad in
temperance the most prolific source
of poverty and it's worst aggrava-
ton. If we are seeking to less. n
crime, we find intemperance to lie
the instigator or abettor of more
than thirds of the crimes COM
mitted in our land. If we are
striving to purify our politics and
elevate our national life, we find the
open saloon to be the perennial
fountain of corruption and fraud.
The drink habit and traffic destroy

night to Monday morning; felt very
bad, and wanted to leave him with
all the goods; left horse at Ransom
and crossed the ferry; in coming
down the river we stopped in front
of Lanes and Blank went in and
asked for something to eat; Blank
came out excited; some one said he
looked like Charlie Wall; goods
were shipped in the name of Solo
mon Rosengrant; left him in New
York and he followed me; told him
to leave me alone; went to Newark,
then to Montreal, where we remain
ed until arrested"
The evidence in the Blank case is
very similar to the above only that
Blank reverses his testimony and
puts the blame on Rosenweig. 1t
is we'll that neither were sighted in
the verdicts. The public arc of the
opinion that the verdicts rendered
are just and right and but little
sympathy will follow them to the
gallows.

HE CAUGHT THE FISH.
BY His ThOughtfUlpess In I'M
proving q Novel Fish Net.

= =
Sullivan county, where wild land
may be bought at less than five dol
lars an acre and where many trout
streams are unpreserved, has an
extraordinary story of a Brooklyn
sportsman who found himself at the
edge of a trout hole literally swarm
ing with fish when he was unpro-
yided with tackle. He gave des-
pairing glance at the fish and was
about to pass on when most un-
sportsmanlike idea came into his
head, and the next moment he yield
ed to the temptation. The stream
was narrow and the sportsman was
broad, so taking off his trousers he
tied the legs into sacks, and going
to the narrowest part of the trout
hole down stream he weighed down
the waistband with stones and prop
ped wide the natural entrance to
the trousers with stout sticks. Then
wading into the stream above the
fish, he had the satisfaction of driv.
ing the whole shoal into the gaping
mouth cf his nctted garments. Ap
proaching cautiously he snatohed
the trousers from the water and
laid their writhing limbs upon the
bank. His conduct was most un-
sportsmanlike, but those who ate
the trout overlooked this little mat
ter of technique.-Es.

AS Mercury will be the reigning
planet of 1898, the indication is that
it will be dry and cold and less
fruitful on this account, such being
the forecast Of general conditions
during year when this planet rules.
Buds and blossoms will be injured
by cold and dry weather in April
and May, so that fruit will be in
danger of yielding small crops.
This is not an encouraging forecast,
nevertheless it is that of the highest
authority in such matters,

ALEXANDRIA.
ABOLITION OF An ON orylcr

ABOLITION OF AN OLD OFFICE
The ancient Office OF weigher and inspector
OF hay, having been one of the municipal Offices
OF Alexandria for nearly century, WAS abol-
ished at the last meeting Of the city council.
The hay scales were established here in l79s by
Mr.. Abraham Farr at his house on st. Asaph
street. where Mr.. Thomas Hoy's stove store now
stands. The wooden beams Of the hay scales
extended above the alley which now adjoins
the Columbia engine house. and the wagons
were driven upon a great wooden scale pan
that was lifted by weights at the other end
OF the beam inside the house. Afterward
platform scales were erected on ST. Asaph
street at the east end of the alley and hay
weighed there until after the war. Abraham
Farr continued weGher Of hay for many years
and was succeeded by John Shakes who, having
been at first deputy and then principal. weighed
all the hay which came to town from 1873 TO
lo6O, when at his death he succeeded by
the late +. NJ. Weldon. to whom the late
Richard Rudd succeeded. About 1879 the hay
scales were torn up and the effort TO re-erett
them in the market alley led to the suit of
Flemming against the city council in which a
temporary injunction that prevented the cree
ton OF them continued for some years
Aitcheson's coal scales at Fairfax and Duke
streets, and at Mr.. Rudds death Mr.. Aitche-
son was elected weigher and continued until
the abolition of the Office. which took place to-
day, when Mayor Strauss signed the ordinance
for that purpose.
THE IMPROVED FIRE DEPARTMENT.
The Alexandria fire department will hereafter
have seven paid firemen instead OF five as here
tofore, and the wardens in a few days will
select two drivers of hose carriages making
the paid force to consist of five drivers and two
engineers. The wardens will also purchase two
hose wagons at a cost of $50, two horses and
harness at a cost of $780, and an addition to
the pay roll of the fire department of $3.50 TO
cover expenses until June 1 will be made.
CORPORATION COURT.
The corporation court, Judge Norton. has
probated the will of the late Vim. Triplett and
continues open daily for routine business.
The mayor has signed the ordinance granting
to L. W. Spear and his associates the right to
use the streets Of Alexandria for a street rail-
way, and the bill is now a law.
The Denman Horse Shoe Company and the
Brightwood Hotel Company, both Of Washing
ton, have been chartered here.

Mr.. Isaac p. Noyes Explains the Mystery OF

Mr.. Isaac p. Moves talked about the weather

last night. He Commenced by reference to the
importance Of knowing the facts in any depart

Prior to 1870, he said, we had many facts in
the general physical department., but the facts
that relate to meteorology were still in the
dark until brought to light by the weather
map. Other countries had a weather map
few years prior to that of the United States,
but We had the advantage Of having q very ex-
tended territory (of about 5000 miles by 500
miles) oil under one government little
familiarity with the map will show us, he said,
the importance OF this feature, it being simply
impossible TO tudy 0eteorology within small
