Second Crop of Fruit.

A cherry tree on the farm of j.
p. Rose, near Elkton was in full
bloom two weeks ago. Mr.. Rose
expected to have ripe cherries by
Christmas if we don't have frost.
1t is likely the frost came before
the cherries.
Mrs. Harriet Clarke of the second
district has ounce tree that has
born it's second crop this fall, the
ounces are perfect not a knot on
them, they were not as large as the
first crop but more perfect. Mrs.
Clarke also has peach tree that
bore the second crop this year.
The curculio were not present to
puncture the second crop, hence
the perfection of the fruit. Was
care taken to syringe the fruit trees
in the summer with an emulsion of
Paris green when the blossoms
begin to fall and the young fruit to
form and about two weeks later
fruit of all kinds would be perfect,
free of knots, scabs and worms.

Foot Ball.

The Tome Institute foot ball class
has challenged" the West Not
tingham team to play foot ball.
We presume the Institute should
be provided with its ambulance and
surgeon, as a very necessary part OF
the organization. Foot ball is a
very dangerous Olympic game.
The Greeks organized the gymnas-
tic branch of education as de-
veloper of muscle and form, on
scientific principles. Scientific
motion is regulated by time and
foot ball movements to be scientific
and educational should be directed
by music. The coming foot ball
professor will introduce music to
direct every movement, and the
present dog fight tussle be lost in
the graceful movements of the
dance. Foot ball in its present I'M
couth form is what the dance would
be without music; rough, ungainly,
barbaric.

Parties.

The Wing announced last week
the holding somewhere in the county
a third Prohibition Party meeting.
We never heard of but one prohibi
ton party. It's not large to besure
but it's all there. There are two
republican parties in the county,
the Stalwart and the Half breed,
and two democrat parties, the
Cleveland and the German parties,
but only one prohibition party.
The Cleveland party having the
most pie at present are fat and
saucy, while the German fellows
look lean and hungry like a hound
just in from a hunt. The Stalwarts
and Half breeds are stand off wait
ing parties without bone to fight
over. Next fall when the utensils
begin to rattle in the political
kitchen they'll begin to growl.

The Grange.

Cecil Grange on Saturday held the most
interesting meeting the order has held
for many months. A movement was
started looking to inaugurating measures
that would make the grange much more
profitable and entertaining to the mem
bers than in the past. There should be a
general attendance of members at the
next meeting, Nov. II when the move
ment started at the last meeting will
receive a more careful consideration
Every member should attend and be pre-
pared to take an active part in the meet
ing. A request by the grange that men,
bers should attend prepared to give their
best thought written or verbally to the
subjects under consideration it is hoped
will not be neglected.

The State Insane Asylum.

Senator Crothers called meeting
last week at Elkton to consult about
taking steps to secure the location
of the proposed State Insane Asylum
in the neighborhood of that town.
A resolution was passed inviting
the Committee charged with select
ing the site for the Asylum to visit
Elkton and view the many desirable
locations in this neighborhood.
The committee, which is com
posed of the Board of Public Works
and six others appointed by the
Governor, requires a tract of $50
acres, with a stream of running
water through it. The land to be
good arabic land with a good build
ing site upon it.

Charities.

A Charity Guild has been organic
ed in Elkton and has already got
together 800 garments to clothe the
shivering poor in the approaching
winter. Such guilds are common
in almost every town and city.
They should not be necessary, and
it should be part of the plan of
all such organizations to dedicate a
part of their time to the inVestiga
ton of the cause and prevention of
the want they have associated to
alleviate. Civilization is but in its
crude condition till this anomaly of
furnishing poverty is forestalled by
automatic preventives. 1t can be
accomplished and advanced thinkers
are working on the problem. Every
village guild should make the study
of this problem part of it's work.
The singletax people claim their
theory put into practice would
prove a complete remedy. Would
it? The socialists contend that their
system is the only possible proven
tive of the crying misery inflicted
ON humanity by the famine of
involuntary poverty. How many
among the members of those bleed
ing hearted charity associations
know anything about these pro-
posed methods for the prevention of
all poverty? Not one in fifty.
Whatever offers to make their
sorroWful task unnecessary should
engage their most earnest thought.

Death of Mrs. Stubs.

Mrs. Sarah B. Stubs, widow of DIR.
Slater B. Stubs died at her residence in
Philadelphia, Nov. 2, in the sixty-second
year of her age. Her remains were
brought to Rising Sun, her native place,
and where she resided during her married

Her husband, S. B Stubs resided at

and was one of the most enterprising
and public spirited citizens in this part
of the county. DR.. Stubs was twice
elected to the House of Delegates OF
Maryland Legislature, and was also after
wards elected school commissioner for the

The New Fad.

Elkton Council, No. %, Junior
Order United American Mechanics
raised an American flag over John
sons school house in Elk Neck Oh
Thursday, Nov. LIST, with appro-
pirate exercises. The presentation
speech was made by p. M. Groves,
and the flag was accepted by Clerk
of the County Commissioners G. I'll.
Smith.
This is one of the most fashion
able fads, and offers an opportunity
for presentation and accepting
speeches, which is a class of the
most graceful of Evolutionary efforts.
The spread eagle seems to have
abandoned the fourth of July orator,
and perched on the head of school
house flag presenter and receiver.
History repeats itself inmany forms.

A Prohibition Party Club.

In answer to a call published in
the JOURNAL last week for the pur-
pose of taking measures to form a
prohibition League, a number
gathered into the Office of Jos. S.
Pogue & Son on Saturday evening.
Mr.. G. Conner, who offioiated to
initiate measures, called the meet
ing to business order and asked
Rev. Mr.. Bryan to pray. After
prayer for the success of the meet
ing and its object, it developed that
the object of the call was to form a
Prohibition party club, and a con
stitution, bylaws and order of bus
mess furnished from headquarters
were produced-a cut and dried
arrangement for the formation of
a political party club, which it was
thought would be polite to change
the name of, printed "club," to
league; the name settled on was the
"Sixth District Prohibition League
of Rising Sum-
The conditions were fifty cents
membership fee and five cents
monthly dues, the League to meet
ON the third Monday evening of
every month, yearly meeting to
be held ON the third Monday of
September. There was an invita-
ton given to those present to step
up and sign the Constitution.
AT this point there was inquiry
for more light on the subject, The
call for the meeting was to take
measures for the formation of a
Prohibition League the purpose OF
which should be to advance the
cause of prohibition. The pro
ceedings so far had all been with
the view of promoting the interest
of the Prohibition party without
reference specially to the interest OF
prohibition, except so far as the
particular political party known as
the Prohibition party, should by its
methods determine and direct.
Some of the company who had
answered to the call for the meeting
differed in their views about the
best mode of promoting prohibi-
ton measures, and were in favor of
organizing a Prohibition League for
the advancement Of prohibition
without regard to the Prohibition
party or any other political party
and its special interest. Quite an
animated discussion sprang up ON
this point of difference, but the pro-
moters of the call it was finally ex
planned had made it for the purpose
of forming q straight out political
party club, in the interest of the
Prohibition party, without ''and or
buts," whether it was the best way
to promote the prohibition cause or
not. When pressed closely dn this
point the most radical for the club
methods said, well, they would
claim the privilege of scratching
their ticket if they thought prohi,
bition would be aided thereby, and
with this liberal construction of
party fealty, and the best interests
of prohibition in view, Mr.. Pogue
declared he had voted for Charley
Crothers. This seemed to restore
the good humor of the meeting and
all joined in hearty laugh. A
party club so liberal minded as that
no one could refuse joining and a
number at once subscribed to it,
and the said Charley" wouldn't
hesitate to join If requested on the
eve of election. A motion prevailed
to defer the election of officers till
the next meeting, which will be
after the election, and to give some
present Who couldn't make up their
minds further time tO consider

There is more Catarrh in this section OF
the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable. For great
many years doctors pronounced it local
disease, and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing 70 cure with
local treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be con-
stitutiona1 disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. ]. Cheney &
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitu-
tiona1 cure on the market. 1t is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops to a
teaspoonful. 1t acts directly on the

| The following communication was unavoid ably
omitted from last weeks issue, from lack of space
WEST NOTTINGHAM, Oct goth, 90.
MR.. EDITOR Il hear the School COM
missioners talk of taking the Monroe
school from us and moving it to Riggs
Corner, or better known as Magraw's
swamp If they had looked the district
over they could not have found worse
place to build schoolhouse, for in the
months of March and April the children
would have to be taken to and from
school in boats or on horseback, as at
the district They claim that by making
this change it will save building school
house at Co1ora Now, the fact is, we
need the Monroe schoolhouse just where
it now stands. We have plenty of pupils
to make as large a school as the house
will accommodate without any pupils COM
ing from Colora. There has never been
pupil attend the Monroe school from
Colora, most of the pupils that attend
the Monroe come from the neighborhood
of Harrisville and east and south of
Monroe. So if they move the Monroe to
the swamp it will be too far for pupils
north and east of Monroe to attend and
they will have to be sent to Rising Sun or
Oak Grove which would be nearer tor
Them Colora needs school house OF its
own and is entitled to it. Colora has now
a school which numbers fifty pupils and
only two of them belong to Monroe. Colora
has offered the Commissions the ground
free to build them a school house and that
is the place for it. We need the Monroe
lust where it stands, there is no better
location in the district nor place house
is more needed. 1t appears strange that
a school which has been the leading one
in the district for fifty-two years and
which has twice been enlarged to accom-
modate the number of pupils, should
within three years have become so poorly
attended that it must be abandoned.
Only four years ago Mitchell Hanna
taught at Monroe and had from fifty to
sixty enrolled. There are number IN
the neighborhood now who are not at
tending any school, which would fill the
old Monroe if they would attend. We
have been told that the reason the school
is not better attended is that the trustees
failed to change the teacher. This per
haps may be the trouble-I notice two OF
the trustees send their children to other
schools The School Commissioners
claim that there is not money enough to
keep so many school houses open; this
appears strange. I noticed in last weeks
Democrat one of its correspondents boast
ing of the amount of money the thirty
seven licensed hotels and saloons had put
into the county treasury, also that it had
enabled the County Commissioners to
build new bridges in the county. Itlooks
a little bad of county boasting of having
thirty places to deal out whlskey
and to close one of the best and most
needed schools in the county and thus
deprive our children the privilege of an
education. Keep up the saloons, build
all the bridges you want, but for heavens
sake protect our schools

local INDUSTRIAL NOTES.

Contractors say that the demand for
work this summer is not SO great among
laborers as it was last year.
An effort will be made this week at the
South works to break the record made for
the best previous week.
Work at the car shops OF the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western is picking up
and the employees are making nearly full
time.
The Scranton Axle works resumed oper-
ations yesterday after short period of
idleness, and the outlook for the fall and
winter is exceptionally bright
The "Tunnel mine of William Conneli
& Co., having been operated continuously
for the past thirty years, is still furnishing
coal. 1t supplies on an average forty cars
Of coal daily to the national coliery.
At 8 o'clock tomorrow afternoon the
manufacturers committee of the board Of
trade will meet at the rooms and confer
ence will be held between the committee
and gentleman whose purpose it is to
build carpet factory in this city if salts
factory conclusions can be reached. The
representative of the factory is at present
general manager OF one OF the largest car
pet manufactures in the United States
and is averse to allowing the use of his
name until something more definite is
done. If he concludes to locate IN Scran-
ton a plant costing at least Sl00, 900 will be
built, and Of that sum the gentleman him
self promises to take a large share of the
stock. The proposed factory, it is esti-
mated, would furnish employment to 100
hands in the beginning. There has been
no certain part Of the city selected as the
most probable site. Tomorrow afternoons
meeting may bring forth something of in
terest on the subject.
