REJECTED ADVISE.
The Conductors Efforts Set at
Naught by u Country Girl.

From the Indianapolis Journal.
A conductor on one of the roads
entering Indianapolis in giving his
varied experience said :
II remember one day that large
fine looking country girl got on my
train at Pana, ILL.,, ticketed to To-
ledo, Ohio. 1 noticed at once that
she was unfamiliar with travel, and
as our train arrived then in the old
depot, which was a very lonely
place at that hour Of night, and she
would have to wait until seven
o'clock for the train East, | thought
I would caution her before leaving
indianapolis to be careful about
making new aequaintances. When
we reached the city suburbs, in
passing through the car taking up
tickets | leaned over and in as gentle
and courteous a manner as 1 knew
how | said to her: Lady, your
train does not leave for Toledo un-
til seven o'clock it is now three
o'clock. When the train stops in
the depot go to the ladies' waiting
room and remain in there. You
will be perfectly safe there until
your train is ready to leave. Don't
listen to what any hack driver or
hotel runner may say to you
''She gave me a very sarcastic
look and snapped out
"My pap told me when started
not to talk to any man, and don't
like your looks a bit, anyway"

1t is President Cleveland now and
ex-President Harrison. The former
took the oath Of office at Washington
! at noon on Saturday and is to be
the chief executive of the country fol
another four years. The country
will not go to the dogs on that ac-
count. Cleveland will not live up to
the platform Of the Democratic party
adopted by the convention which
nominated him. If he did the
country would surely go to smash at
rapid rate. But Cleveland is not
likely to prove SO much Of tariff
smasher as some of the free traders
would like, and his administration is
apt to be one of considerable merit.
No one doubts but that Cleveland
means to do what is best for the
country, and now that he is again
President of the whole people every
one should try to help him as much
as possible. This advice is hardly
necessary, however, as he will
doubtless find plenty of people who
want to take all of the Offices and
help him run the government with
out advertising for proposals to fill
them. AS we view the matter he
should have all of the assistance he
requires if he can get it from the
Democrats; and Republican Office
holders should retire just as soon as
their terms expire and make room
for portion of the Democrats who
want their places. Cleveland has in
a measure indicated that he is not of
the opinion that Democrats are good
enough for some of the offices, but
this should not have any influence
with Republicans who may be asked
to continue in the Offices they now
hold after their terms expire. They
should be ready to step down and
out at the end of the time for which
they were commissioned and make
room for the Democrats who are
likely to be so anxiously waiting.

RosenweIg Again Lays plans for
Escape.

Rosenweig has not, it seems, yet
abandoned all hope Of escape from
jail The Tunkannock correspondent
of the Scranton Times, writing on
Monday, said:
Sheriff Knapp has deprived prisoner
Rosenweig of all reading matter save
the Bible. He made examination of
the sell the other day and found that
Resenweig had been digging out the
plaster at the foot of his bed and
making break for liberty. The
walls are of solid masonry and it
would require q force of inasons with
tools unmolested full week to dig
out there and even then they could
not displaoo the stone without blast
ing. lie might as well take another
tack. Rev. Mr. Burson was caller
at the Jail on Sunday and tried to
reconcile the doomed men to their
fate. He says that Blank seems to
be greatly worried In mind while
Rosenweig still thinks there is hope
ahead.

Destroy etl-Partly insured.

o'clock the Blk Run House, situated
about two miles above Central and
owned by j. w. Perry was discover
ed to be on fire. The flames had al
ready made such headway that, with

sible to eXtingush them. The house

help Of some neighbors about one
third of the furniture was saved. M
Perry and daughter were at home
when the fire was discovered. The
rest of the family had gone to

known. The loss is estimated at
$4,000 insured in the Hartford and
Firemens of Baltimore in the sum
of $1,000. This Hotel was q resort

Artificial Maple Sugar.

Decoctions or extracts OF the
wood or bark of trees are frequently
used for fiavoring syrups OF sugars.
Different extracts differ in taste.
The hickory tree it is said yields an
extract that will impart the flavor
of the maple, and Daily's method
of producing artificial maple syrup
or sugar is as follows: Make an
extract of hickory bark or wood by
allowing water to percolate through
the same. The bark or wood may
be ground, or sawdust theretrom
used. Hot water may be used, OF
the material boiled in water. The
strength of the extract may be in
creased by increase of the
quantity of the wood or bark.
70 one gallon Of hot or boiling su-
gar syrup add say three tablespoon
fuls of the hickory extract. 1t is
said the effect of the extract is to
produce a flavor that renders the
syrup indistinguishable from genuine
maple sugar. If the syrup is boiled
down, a sugar resembling maple
sugar in taste is produced.-Scienti.
