Aunt Thankful Taylor, of Washington,
VT, is regarded by her neghbors as prodigy
Of learning. When she was ninety years old
she began to study Greek, and she is now
able to read the New Testament in that
tongue, while she has adorned the walls of
her rooms with Greek notices embodying
the wisdom of the ancients. She is also
familiar with Latin, the study of which she
began in her old age.-New York World.
Aunt Thankful is believed to be the
most venerable high school girl in the
country.
She is, indeed, like Lenore, "a rare
and radiant maiden"-most probably
because she set up a high school and
played alike the exalted role of teacher
and exercised the humber forte of
learner-all at her own expense.

Dangerous.

The fate of a young school girl in
Chicago who committed suicide be-
cause she failed to pass the graduating
examinations is a sad instance of the
excess to which scholastic ambition is
sometimes carried. Often the mental
strain of endeavoring to reach the
honor of a brilliant success is per-
manently disastrous, and wrecked
health, if the harm goes no further, is
too great price to pay for an hour of
triumph on the public platform. While
ambition is a praiseworthy virtue IN
itself, and deserves encouragement,
the youthful brain ST ould not be urged
to danger point of stimulation, and
its dangers to those incapable of such
strain with safety should be clearly
understood. Nor should the import
ance of obtaining closing honors be
exaggerated in the youthful mind

The appended card not only explains
its purpose, but it makes an appeal
which should meet prompt and
liberal response from all citizens:
CUMBERLAND, Mp, August 20, 1895.
AS you have doubtless seen from the news
paper accounts of the hearing before J Justice
Thompson of Joseph Henderson, that he left
wife and two children in Russia several
years ago. came to Cumberland, and, repre-
senting himself as a single man, went to
Atlantic City on the 2lst of July, and there
married Jane Kerr, resident of Frostburg.
On the 10th of August, the wife of Mander
son, whose real name is Wisotzkey, accom-
panied by her two children, came here, hay
ing located her husband through the Baron
Hirsch Fund Committee, of Baltimore, and
discovered that her husband had contracted
bigamous marriage.
The courts of this county have no juris-
diction over the offense, the marriage having
taken place in New Jersey, and, through cor
respondence, find that some means must be
secured to defray the expenses of the wit
nesses to Atlantic city to make the complaint
and testify in the case.
The county commissioners are not author
lied to set aside any portion of the public
funds for this purpose, and appeal to the
public to contribute to a prosecution insti-
tuted in the interest of one of its citizens who
has been wronged by henderson.
Rev. J. l.. Stern has interested himself in
this matter, but he must have the co-opera-
ton of the citizens of the county in order to
successfully carry on this prosecution. and a
liberal subscription to him by generous
public will effect that purpose.
Very respectfully,
DAVID w. SLOAN,
States Attorney for Allegany county.
What is captioned "The First Re-
Spouse" in the Cumberland Nems of
Thursday is accompanied by letter
from the donor:
CAMBRIDGE, Mn, August 81, 1885,.

DEAR SIR-ln response to the announce.
ment in to-day's issue of the Daily Ne,rs en-
close you small contribution to the fund
you are collecting in order to assist in secur-
ing the prosecution of Joseph Henderson for
the crime of bigamy.
Let me congratulate you upon the public
spirit manifested by the stand you have taken
in behalf of the good morals of the State, and
assure you that all good citizens commend
you in your effort to see this criminal brought
tojustice.
His prosecution is demanded not only for
the sake of the innocent victims of his crimes
but in the interest of social purity, and |
trust that an outraged public will generously
come to your assistance.
Yours very truly,
A. A. DoUB.

Will You Z?

John Smith wanted to sell liquor at
"Detmold grove, near Homecoming"
and clerk Luman gave notice through
a Cumberland newspaper that "all
remonstrances" must be filed on or be-
fore yesterday. The vital portion of
clerks notice was printed in italic,
showing that the law contemplates
that Mr.. Smiths neighbors shall speak,
or silence will be construed as equal
to consent.
This notice, however, ought to have
been printed in the Lonaconlng Recie,o.
If not, the JOURNAL asks the Recieo
to stifle its plant for so cents ton
long enough to explain why its own
advertising should be done in Cum
berland.
The ReoieD is urged to answer at
once, for the JOURNAL wants to ask
each of the fifty candidates for the
House of Delegates whether. if elect
ed, he will secure the repeal of law
which provides that home advertising
shall be done away from home
The JOURNAL is actuated by no
selfish motive in this matter, but by q
sense of fairness to the people in in
terest. 1t is not right for the law to
say, in effect, that Ignorance of the
law excuses no one" and then provide
that the people most interested shall
be ignorant of its provisions and bene-
fits by the publication of notices
designed for their information as far
from home as the business will
nominally permit.
Hence, withou: waiting for the Re
cieso to say the people of Detmold grove
had no right to read in it's columns
a notice designed exclusively for them.
the JOURNAL again asks of each of the
fifty candidates for the House of Dele
gates-will you do all in your power to
amend the liquor license law so as to
provide for the publication i'll each
case by the newspaper nearest to the
applicants place of business

r. H. Gordon, stampeded by the
democratic bolt to Lowndes, declined
the governors appointment to the
judgeship.
And now Ferdinand Williams has
gone to join Gordon.
1t is clear that the average private
business in Cumberland is much too
big. and the governor should punish
legal prosperity there by bestowing
his next appointment on some less
fortunate legal genius in Oakland.

No Other Way.

Said gentleman, whose good opin-
ion the JOURNAL loves to enjoy, yester-
day
have been looking to see where the JOUR
NAL stands on the issue of Gormanism, ETC.
The JOURNAL told him that it be-
lieved the democrats of MARYLAND
would have to do as the republicans of
Pennsylvania, Iowa and even Kansas
sometimes do-go outside to thrash
not the party, but the bosses.
At this distance from the day of
election, therefore, there seems no way
open to a resumption of popular rule
but for democrats to yield at least
passively to republican effort to de-
throne the uncrowned kings.

UNDER OUR beautiful Democratic adj
mlnistration the public debt is increas-
ing rapidly. There would be less
ground for criticism in this were it not
for the fact that part of the increase
has come from Mr.. Cleveland's foolish
bond purchases. From the sale of these
bonds the country has received no ben
eft. All that has been accomplished is
the storage Of little gold for short
time in the treasury. Gold would not
be Withdrawn and consequently there
would be no need for bond issues if the
secretary of the treasury would pay
out silver in redemption of greenbacks
and treasury notes. This would be in
accordance with the legal obligations of
the government aud at the same time it
could be done with entire safety to its
credit. The same course is pursued by
the Bank OF France, and what is done
there could, in a matter OF this sort, be
done here,

THERE Is HOPE for South Carolina.
A call has been issued by number OF
prominent Republicans for conven-
ton to reorganize the Repu blican party
in the state. This is encouraging, as
no state convention was held last year.
The purpose of the call is to give vitality
to the party in South Carolina and en-
able it to take an active part in the
election of delegates to the constitu-
tional convention. If the Republican
vote cast in the state were fairly and
honestly counted, South Carolina would
make a very respectable showing of
numbers of the dominant party, North
but the trouble is that where two Re-
publican votes are cast, one is thrown
ont and two Democratic fraudulent
votes are put into the ballot box to off
set the one that remains.

CRIMINAL EVEN rs.

We find in the Chicago Tribune some
interesting statistics concerning the
criminal events of the year 1894.
Counting suicides as crimes there were
1912 as com pared with 4, 436 in 1898,
showing an increase of 476. This is
about the average increase that has OBJ
tanned for a series OF years. and shows
that various causes OF suicide are grow
ing more and more active every year.
1t is shown that physicians are adopt
ing suicide as means Of exit in larger
numbers than ever before. As com
pared with other professions the mum
Der OF physicians is startling. The
agencies employed are curious. Here
tofore the pistol has been the favorite
weapon used. During the past year
poison became a favorite article with
which to end life's fever.
The record of murder has some start
ling phases. In 1898 there were 6,6I5
persons who died by violence. There
was an increase for series of the pre-
ceding years, but last year it jumped
from 6,615 to 9 500, an increase OF 5 1855.
AS murder cases are seldom fully re.
ported it is probable the total was over
10000. Lately the murders have been
of fendish character. They had ele-
ments of heartlessness which are new
to this country. 1t is difficult to ex
plain the cause. But, undou btedly
the laws delays, the laxity of justice
the corruption OF iuries, the cunning o
lawyers and the free use of the politica
pardoning power, by which criminal.
escape, have much to do with it. Tht
tramp system is means of debasemen
and men hardened in crime by aesoca
ton with others more heartless thar
themselves become as ferocious as wilC
beasts and delight in torture and bruta
acts.
In the face Of the 10000 murder!

there were but 1872 persons banged.
Thus 9,S6S escaped the extreme penalty
of the law. Ninety-one of these exc
cutions were in the southern states and
considerable number of these were
negroes.
There has been $25, 900, 900 charged to
the account of embezzlement during
the past year, and this includes public
and private funds stolen, nearly SO, O00,-
600 more than in 1898, and the largest
total ever before known. Gam bling
and fast living ara at the bottom of a
large share of the embezzlement opera
tions. The remedy is in the hands of
bank directors and others and should
be applied without hesitation.

A GOOD APPOINTMENT.

The press and the bar of the terri
tory will not be taken by surprise at
the announcement of F. J. Heney's
resignation as attorney general and its
prompt acceptance by the governor,
because it is known that he has not
been in harmony with the policy of the
administration.
His successor, Thos. D. Satterwhite
of Tucson, whose commission was
promptly forwarded, has been freely
commented upon as a most excellent
appointment. Judge Satterwhite brings
to this important office character, in
tegrity and the confidence of the courts
and bar of the territory.
Although comparatively young man
he is eminently qualified for the exalted
position. Being highminded gentle
man of studious habits, indefatiga BILE,
industrious and loyal nature he will be
valuable and important acquisition to
the administration.
