The " ISuLliuan Reuieao publishes
the following article in reference to
the recent Judicial contest in that
district.
Since the adjournment Of the con-
test court the way in which certain
prominent citizens voted last fall has
been openly proclaimed, and it is
said that the ballots Of men whose
votes were not challenged were open
ed up during the final court, their vote
ascertained and commented upon.
Just how much of this is true we are
in no position to know, but we do
know that the first part of the above
statement is correct. The secrecy of
the ballot is jealousy guarded by the
law, and if the learned exponents Of
the law allowed this secrecy to be
violated they are unworthy the posi-
tions they hold. If persons connected
with the court as attorneys or officers,
after coming into the possession of
the secret of the ballot, so far forget
themselves as to reveal the secret to
the world they are unworthy the future
confidence of the court. An offense
against decency has been committed,
or some one is doing considerable
lying. Are tine parties who committed
the offense above punishment by the
law for their misdemeanor ? This
thing should be investigated and some
one brought to justice, even if it
reaches within the sacreda precincts
of the bar of justice.

TO OHEOK FOREST FIRES.
Circulars Sent Out 10 Comfy Commissioners
Urging Them to Aid in Preventing Such
Destruction.

DR.. J. +. Rothrock, of the Forestry
Commission is now engaged fighting
the question of forest fires. He is
sending out three sets of circulars,
one to farmers and lumbermen, one
to County Commissioners and the
last to farmers. Forest fires are now
raging in the following counties to a
greater or less extent: Mlfflin, Hunt
ingdon, Centre, Cumberland, York,
Chester and Lycoming. One thousand
acres were burned last week on the
Welsh Mountain.
DIR. Rothrock says: Every fire
can be traced to one of three causes
-maliciousness, carelessness or igno-
rance. In the first case men very
infrequently set fire to their forest
property when they have gotten be-
hind on taxes and the land is taken
from them. In revenge they set fire
to the timber. Hunters often set fre
to the forests through very careless
ness, and boys start bonfires often
through utter ignorance OF the damage
which may ensue. -,
"Yet none of these reasons should
be legitimate excuses in the eyes OF
the law. The State alone loses $1,000,
900 annually through forest fires, and
no one at all in Pennsylvania, so ial
as my knowledge extends, is no"
under punishment for the offense."
DIR. Rothrock will leave for the
scenes of the fires as soon as possible
and he will investigate as thoroughly
as may be the origin and extent OF thu
fires.

Judge Mitchells Decision

A Justice of the Peace can not act
as agent or attorney for one of the
parties and afterward sit in judgment
over both in the same case. TO do
so is to become guilty of highly ag-
gravated misdemeanor indictable at
common law. So says Judge Mitchell
of Tioga county, il an opinion recent,
ly handed down in case brought
before him from Lawrepceville in
which the Justice wrote the defendant
two letters, the first informing him
that he held the claim for collection,
the second saying to him that he
was instructed to bring suit unless
the balance of the claim was paid at
once.

NINE ON ONE BICYCLE.

When the tandem was built a mum
Der of years ago, it was looked upon
as a remarkable development of the
bicycle, and the two riders skimming
along over the road attracted almost
as much attention as small circus
parade. The triplet, with seats for
three riders, but only two wheels.
next made its appearance and aston
ished the bycling world by its speed.
Both the tandem and the triplet were
used for pacing riders in contests
against time, and some expert finally
suggested that quadruplet or two
wheeled machine for four sturdy
cyclists would set faster pace than
had ever been seen on the track.
Many persons did not believe the
frame could be made strong enough
to support four heavy wheelmen, but
the machine was constructed and
proved great success as pacemak
ing device. 1t made its mile on a
straightaway course in minute az
seconds, a better performance by half
a second than Salvator's world famous
mile on the straight track at Mon
mouth Park, New Jersey. August
2Sth 1890.
1t was now quite generally believed
that the "quad" was the longes,
bicycle that could be built and operat.
ed successfully, but p. J. Berlo very
recently demonstrated that the opn.
ion was not we'll founded. He con
structed qulntuplet which carried
five riders, but had only the usual
number Of wheels. 1t proved a valu
able addition to the pacemaking ap
paratus, and encouraged by its success.
California inventor is building wha,
he calls nonaplet, which he expect:
will carry nine men and display un
precedented speed on a straightaway
course. The inventors name is AL
bert Thompson, and he is a resident
of San Francisco.
This machine will be a worlC
beater, says The Wheel. Nothing
can pace it, and even the Lightning

The Downfall of Bill Nye.

Bill Nye, the humorist, had an ex-
perience at Peterson, N. Y, last
week that he will hardly write
up for the Sunday papers. Nye
and his lecturing companion, Poole,
the lightning characturist, were engag
ed to give an entertainment in the
First Baptist Church, for which they
were to receive $a5o. The church
was crowded with the best people in
Peterson when Nye and Poole ap.
peared. Poole came on first and gave
great satisfaction, but when Nye came
on he was so drunk that he could
scarcely talk. His behavior and
language were so disgusting that many
of the audience left at once. After
the entertainment was over number
of young men who had been faxed
armed themselves with decayed eggs
and fruit and laid for the humorist at
the railroad station and soaked,
him well. He was a miserable object
when he finally got into his car, and
the other occupants of the car cleared
out and left him alone i'll his glory.
He was besmeared from head to foot
with spoiled eggs, but Immediately
sunk into drunken stupor and slept
till he reached New York. Mr. Poole
has announced that he will cancel all
engagements with Nye. Nye cut UP
the same sort Of a caper at Atlantic
City few nights before.
