The balloon Albatross belonging to
the military in Berlin, made an as
cent last Friday in order to ascertain
what effect the intense cold would
have on the balloon and instruments.
The balloon sailed away over Span
dau, went over the Elbe. and, after q
voyage Of ten hours, came down to.
wards Tsp. M, near the Baltic. At L.
600 metres the wind was from the
southwest; at 1000 metres there was
a perfect calm, 80 that the balloon
stood quite still for an hour above the
village. 1t had therefore to descend
to catch another wind. The cold ut
the higher points was so intense that
the moist sand in the sacks was frozen
into compact stone. Naturally the
meat and other provisions were froz-
en- hard and not At to be used. The
two German and tne Austrian officers
who undertook the voyage suffered a
good deal.-London Daily News.

shippins EARLY Spring Lambs.

This is the harvest season of the
growers of hot house lambs. High
prices prevail for those which Just.
suit the market. Such must be Of
good weight-not less than thirty.fiye
pounds dressed-ln good condition,
well and properly dressed before ship
ping. The last Is extremely import
ant. The few shipments of live lambs
do not bring satisfactory prices, and
injure the sale of the others. The
manner Of dressing sometimes makes
more than one-half difference in the
price.
Any one intending to ship should
get full directions for properly dress-
ing and shipping before undertaking
it. The handlers Of these lambs viii
furnish these. Then it is well for a
beginner to try his hand on few

an Ohio man sent in q half dozen
alive. Only one Of them was large
enough to satisfy the market de-
mands. Dealers didn't want live ones,
SO the receiver was obliged to have
them killed. All but. one were so
small and thin that they sold for low
prices and the returns must have been

producer to lose like this through ig-
norance of the market demands. He

LEGISLATIVE TOPICS.

Harrisburg, March 1.-THE resolution
making a special order for the state Gus
todianship bill, in which Captain John e.
Delaney is interested, will come up for
action tomorrow night. If it Is intended to
make the bill apply to the contracts for
the coming year 1t will have to become a
law by, April l at the latest, and that can
be accomplished only by a special order
AS the bill is said to have been prepared
at the suggestion of Senator Quay in order
to unite under one head and to system
atize the work of furnishing supplies to
the various departments, similar to the
plan in operation at Washington, there
appears to be no doubt of the ultimate
success of the measure, in spite Of the OPP
position of the representatives of the So
called patriotic orders to Captain Delaney,
who is to be the custodian under the bill
The methods employed to fight Captain
Delaney are well Illustrated by the eXpe-
riepce of one of the prominent leaders on
the Republican side of the house. While
at his home recently he was waited on by
delegation from an Amerisan Protect
i've association lodge and asked to vote
against the Delaney bill The representa-
tive naturally asked the reason for the
opposition and was told that 1t was based
on patriotic grounds" Thereupon the
Republican leader proceeded 20 remind
his visitors of the services rendered by
Captain Delaney during the rebellion,
while he was still a mere boy, and the
American Protective association, cor
nered on the patriotic racket, are said to
have openly admitted that their oppos-
tlon was based entirely on the fact that
Captain Delaney was a Catholic. In con-
sequence of such tactics as this. u counter
feeling of sympathy is setting in, in favor
of Captain Delaney, and 1t Is believed that
the custodianship bill will go through a
humming, over the heads of the bigoted
opposition.

The Future of BimetaIlism.

1t is n fact of some local interest that
eX-Co.!ector Thomas V. Cooper has un-
rescrvedly acknowledged his CONVEX
sion to the monetary principles of
Senator Cameron, who wants the free
coinage of American silver upon a par
lty with gold. In other words, he has
become practical bimetallist as op-
posed to those who, protesting to favor
hmetallIsm In accordance with the last
national Republican platform, never
'theless act and argue upon a mono
metallic gold basis, now. and then
throwing u sop to the silverite contin-
gent within their party, in the form of
some vague alluslon to an "interna-
tional agreement"
We take it that the Philadelphia
Press, which sharply crlticizes Mr..
Cooper for simply getting in line with
the unmistakable drift of public opin-
ion, is one of those journals which be-
lieve that an international agree
ment" Is necessary to the determina-
tion of Americas financial policy. 1t
says: '"The Republicans of Pennsylva-
mia and of the country, who favor the
restoration of silver to its full monetary
role through the only safe method OF
international action, are the true bi-
metallists and seek the largest possible
use OF both gold and silver" 1t is char
acteristic of the low ebb Of the inde-
pendent spiritin America that, after we
have successfully, in our system of pro-
tective tariffs. .combatted and conquered

1t strikes us that when the American
Protective association opposes the en-
actment of SO economical u measure as
the state custodianship bill, upon the
ground that one of the possible ap-
pointees to that as yet uncreated Of

to about the lowest depths of ignorant

period of evil existence. Fortunately,

the pace.

The esteemed Montrose Republican
state any considerable number of par
ents and guardians fail to give their
children and wards all the benefits of
education they possibly can. Here
and there possibly there are a few who
are Indifferent to the welfare of the
children for whom they are responsible,
but the number is unquestionably very
limited, and is confined almost entirely
to few classes of the more ignorant
foreigners" The Republican must
know that according to reports to the
state superintendent of public instruc-
ton from 100000 to 10000 boys and
girls in Pennsylvania, between the ages
of and 10 years, are not attending
public school. Some go to parochial or
private schools; but without doubt the
great bulk are growing to manhood
and womanhood in condition of IL
literacy. The question, in a nutshell
is: rs it worth anything to the state
to have these illiterates educated?'
And if So how much?
The Scranton correspondent of the
Milton People-who is a preacher, we
believe, resident in Forest City-differs
in opinion from The Tribune, and EN-
phasizes that difference by calling the
editor of this paper vicious names. The
gentleman's staggering vulgarity has
so often been shown in his debates
with fellow clergymen that we view
it upon this occasion merely as some
thing he cannot help.
Very naturally, President Hartman,
of Philadelphias common council re-
ports that the heat and power plant vis-
tied by himself and associates while in
Scranton recently lis the most COM
plete and practical of all the plants
visited by them. Being a typical
Scranton institution, it could not be
less than the best.

The report that the president having
become dissatisfied with the manner in
which Mr. Harrity has discharged his
duties as federal pap-dispenser for

Congressman Wolverton or Chauncey
f.. Black reflects unexpected credit
upon Mr.. Cleveland's discernment
From a Republican standpoint, We
trust that it may not be true. While
the Democracy of Pennsylvania under
any leadership, is bound to be in a mi
nority, there is something in Mr., Har-
rlty's management which 50 invests
that minority with strong shrinking
powers as to cause Republicans to be
uncommonly grateful. We prefer Har-
rity to any other Democrat, not be-
cause of any merits of his own, but be-
cause of the ease with which he can be
whipped.

dangerous, but it might be trouble
some. It's action in a given contin-
cock-surely foretold az could Mr.. Har-
rty's. The latter gentleman, when
confronted by two or more emergen-
cies requiring nice judgment could with
entire security be depended upon to
make the worst possible choice. This
was illustrated, over and over again,
in his recent distribution of state and
national patronage. In what part of
the commonwealth did Harrity
strengthen his party by means of cor
rectly-placed appointments? Certainly
not in Scranton. The local appoint
ments for which he stands sponsor
may be irreproachable from the stand
point of social etiquette and jolly good
fellowship, but it would be an unde-
served perversion of the truth to say
that they have redounded to the
strengthening of the Democratic party
as fighting organization. Patronage,
from party standpoint, could hardly
have been less adroitly bestowed.
Nor is Scranton in this particular an
exceptional locality by any means.
There is scarcely community in the
state which does not reverberate with
the clashing of minority factions, an
gered at unfortunate selections for post
masters, internal revenue collectors or
deputies. The bulk of these selections
have been made from the "high-toned"
classes, which to the socialistic masses
Of the Democratic organization, self
called the rank and file," is little less
than party treason. Instead of pen
sioning off the heelers, the manipula-
tors and the obsolescent party hacks
the Cleveland administration in Penn
sylvania has been impolitic enough in
many instances to defer to the silk
stocking aristocrats who can read
write and cipher; and naturally Har-
rity gets the opprobrium therefor. 1t
is trifie late in the game for a new
deal, intended as counter irritant, to
be of much partisan value. But If it
shall be attempted it will at least be
interesting, entertaining and-imma-
terial.

the greater part OF the sixteen years dur
which he has been n member of the board
OF school control 1t Is but fair to say that
his administration of the Office has been
distinguished by continuous and dlsin-
terested effort for the good. of the public

man of broad mind, discriminating
against no teacher on account of race or
creed. making no promises which he did
not perform when 1t was in his power, and
spending much valuable time In the edu-
cational interests OF the city. The knowl-

the entire world, with its hostile tenet
of laissez faire, there should now be
this sudden anxiety to ask the world at
large to make a currency system for us.
The Press may believe that "interna-
tional action" is the only safe method
of restoring American silver to parity
with gold. but there is rapidly grow
ing sentiment, even among eastern Re
publicans, that if we were to stop
and Germany in this matter, and pro-
'ceed to solve the question in our own
name and by virtue of our own mani
fest superiority as self-sustaining and
self-contained people, we could soon
have things our own way touching
currency just as we now have them our
own way in the item of a protective
tariff system. We are not, as the Press
might suppose, the dependents but the
peers of European peoples. We can
work out our own destiny to our own
satisfaction, whether they like 1t or not.
The simplicity of this matter must be
the one great reason why so many peo-
pie do not get their proper bearings.
An International agreement will un-
doubtedly be very acceptable when 1t
comes. But while we are wearily wait
ing for it, why not clap a prohibitive
duty on foreign silver bullion, coin our
own silver at "a ratio to be agreed upon,
and let the whole thing go at that?
We can do without the investments OF
Europe much more easily than Europe
can do without our meats, and cereals
and cotton. The upshot of this would
be that while we need not go to Europe
for settlement of the coinage relations
between silver and gold, Europe would
soon have to come to us for that settle
ment, and America once more would set
