ARE TO BE COMMENDED.

Commissioner Swank was called to
Wilkes.Barre last week on business
connected with his Office. 1t seems
that the Commissioners of Luzerne
County have been insisting upon col
lectlng taxes from several of the peo-
pie of this County, whose land lies
partly in the above named County.
The assessors and tax collectors had
been giving them considerable annoy
ance and the board in this County
concluded it was their duty to protect
them. The matter was settled in
accordance with the desire of this
board, and the above named citizens
will not be troubled in the future.
They are to be commended for this
act, as it shows that they are alive to
the interests of the taxpayers of this
County.

JUNIOR EPwORTR LEAGUE.

Last Sunday afternoon was the lit
tie folks day at the Methodist Church.
About a year ago Junior Epworth
League was organized with about
twenty boys and girls, and the event
was celebrated by songs, recitations,
&c. The important part of the pro-
gram however, was reserved for the
last, when their offering for the new
church, amounting to about seventeen
dollars, was taken. The amount was
large when we take into consideration
the fact that it was the result of Self
Denial Week. Undoubtedly this a
mount represented self denials on
their part, which their fathers and
mothers would not make. The offer
ing was received by the pastor.

ARR ESlED FOR FAST DRIVING.

For some time past the Commits
sioners have been troubled by certain
parties making race course of the
river bridge at Catawissa. AS repeat
ed cautions had failed to abate it, it
was decided that the interests of the
County demanded that the law be en-
forced. Saturday, Frank ]. Miller,
who resides in Catawissa township,
drove through it at a rapid gate, and
upon his return came back in the
same manner. He was stopped in
the bridge by workmen, who were
making repairs, and cautioned, but
paying no attention to their advice,
he started his horse on trot. He
was arrested Saturday afternoon and
taken before J. B. Knittle, Esq, who
after hearing the evidence imposed a
fine Of $40 and costs. The Commits
sioners do not desire to distress any
one, but this practice must stop.
The bridge is County property, and
in their official capacity they are
bound to see that it is properly used.
1t cost the County many thousand
dollars, alb the Commissioners will
be commended by the tax payers in
looking after their interests. They
are determined to put stop to this,
both on this bridge, and the one at
Bloomsburg, if it is necessary to make
an arrest every day. A party has
been appointed, whose duty it is to
watch these bridges, and any one
driving over them at rapid gait will
be prosecuted without respect to per
son. This thing must stop,

The sportsmen of all the principal

1.-the World Against Her,

"The World Against Her" made Rome
howl at the Academy last night. 1t Is
melo-drama of an exaggerated type, and
it caught the galleries like moiasses
catches flies.
Some clever things frightened the dis
NAL tragedy of it all-among them a
song by Lucie Villa, who is not little
bit of an actress, but who sang negro
ditty with pure accent, and almost per-
feet expression. Little Mable" does
a very pretty dance in Act Ii.
There are some catchy songs
and few rather clever specialties. But
the play itself is of the genuine william
till-pursued- type.
In the last scene where the villain and
the hero engage in mauling contest, the
galleries rose in body and shrieked,
'sGo it, Corbettl" ''Give it to him FitzP'
"Paste him on the earl" And the cur
tain went down with sentiment, villainy,
emotion, and the gallery all in full blast.

There may be in the distant future
some remedy as efficacious as Paine's
celery compound.
There is none such to-day.
The sick and ailing who are stretching
out their hands for help must take the
best that the scientific medical knowledge
of the world now affords.
The reasoning that has enabled Prof.
Edward E. Phelps, NJ. d., Ii. d., of
Dartmouth college to discover the re-
markabie formula of Paine's celery COM
pound is the result of the century's work
in medicine.
1t is by new and more thoughtful
grouping of diseases, from a careful
study of their causes, that Prof. Phelps
has been enabled to see the true relation
ship of all diseases of the blood and
nerves.
Neuralgia, sleeplessness, melancholia,
hysteria, headache and dyspepsia at once
referred themselves to tired, half fed
and therefore deranged nervous system
The cure lay in attending to the nutrl-
ton of the whole system. This system
of cure, simple and clear like most epoch
making ideas, was embodied in the
greatest tissue former, nerve restorer and
regulator yet known TO science-Palne's

that makes people well!

The Raleigh market is attracting at
tention from different quarters OF the

The Raleigh market is drawing Gus

extending tobacco region, and is now on
a firmer basis than ever before.

GROWERS PROCLAMATION.

From the Minneapolis Penny Press
That the administration should have
issued manifesto to the people prohib-
ting all citizens from aiding and abet-
ting the rebellion in Cuba, will be no
surprise to any one.
Cuba is dependency Of Spain. It is
struggling for independence The peo-
pie naturally desire and receive sympa-
thy from her "big American Cousin
She as naturally gets that sympathy; and
American sympathy often takes form in
other ways than mere professions or pro-
testations.
1t Is quite as natural to expect that a
Democratic administration would lump
on to any aid which might be granted
by the Yankees It Is always under
stood that when little fellows need help
like Cuba, or some Central American
Republic, or some South Sea Islander, no
help shall be granted; and if possible
aid shall be granted to help suppress his
rising republican notions.
When Great Britain raises her finger
it is always in order for a Democratic
administration to "doff its hat" and in
the deepest humility keep its hands off.
The rights and even the claims" of all
foreign powers must be respected at all
hazards. Hence this proclamation is
and has been in order for several days.

A FRENCH VIEW.

It will not excite much surprise that
we should recall today what there is
need of recalling from time to time
namely, the lamentable retrogression
caused by Prince Bismarck to western
civilization. Never had liberal theories
or the idea of solidarity between nations
and of the peaceful rivalry for the pursuit
of the common goods which make life
pleasanter for all men been more on the
road of progress than about the middle
of this century. It then seemed that
right was really about to reign over the
world. But there was a map who car
ried in his head an idea in all points
contrary to that which the nineteenth
century borrowed from the eighteenth
from the French revolution. He in
definitely postponed the victory of right.
He created state of territorial possess
ion against which thousands and thou
sands Of consciences will increasingly
protest. He condemned all peoples to
that armed watch which absorbs the best
of their riches and their blood.
History cannot be insensible to the
striking inconsistency between the ma
ture of the work accomplished by Prince
Bismarck and the time and circum-
stances in which this work was accom-
plished. In its impartiality It will in

THE KING SNAKES RESCUE

A boy In Missouri recently started
out one morning to cut small hickory
for an ak handle. Selling his Ratchet,
he climbed the hill and all went we'll
until just as the hickory was falling,
when the lad, who had been keeping a
sharp lookout, as he thought, saw huge
rattler almost at his feet The strokes
of his Ratchet had prevented his hearing
the warning rattle of the serpent, and it
was preparing to strike. With cry of
terror he sprang wildly down the slope,
stumbled and fell. Then there was a
crash from above and he was pinned to
the earth, with the tree resting across his
back in such manner that he could
not readily extricate himself.
The noise made had been sufficient to
arouse the ire of all the snakes within
hearing, and the lad saw them coming
from all directions, Kissing and rafting.
At the same time the snake close by was
evidently preparing to strike him full
anger its head flew back, but just as it
darted forward a long, slim, brown
spotted body shot across Hoover's face,
anu Ill q IA1SO was oPpCO al Ouuu LuC
yellow throat, safely behind the deadly
fangs.
The rattler had met his master, the
king snake. A short, sharp struggle en-
sued, and then the king snake leisurely
uncoiled and crawled away, leaving it's
huge adversary dead. AS for the re-
naming snakes, they had glided swiftly
into their holes, and the boy soon re-
leased himself from his perilous position.

AVERTED Ruin

Several years ago there was long dry
spell along about the time when corn
needs big drink every day. The price
OF the cereal kept mounting upward, and
at last reached point where a certain
bear trader who had sold large quaint
ties for future delivery before the adj
vance began was about at the end of his
rope. Margins had been called on him
several times, and another cent advance
meant ruin, because he could not secure
another dollar. The drought continued
but the bears were shifting the air every
minute with the hope that rain would
come. There were predictions of show
erS, but he actual water held back. This
bear trader knew that something must
be done or he would Ego broke before
the day was over.
Suddenly a happy inspiration seized
him. He quietly slipped out to the wash
room, and, avoiding the notice of any
one, sprinkled his old white felt hat with
water Rushing into the corn pit he
fiourished the sprinkled hat wildly over
his head and yelled: r4...+t
shes come, boys. It's beginning to
rain. Look at that hat!'
There was a tremendous rush to sell
corn. Everybody thought the drought
had been broken. and. there was no time
to question the evidence so suddenly
sprung. Corn broke a cent, and the
trader who knew how to make rain with
out any dynamite was saved from being
a ruined man.
