Our Clrcnit Judge.

Pierre Free Press:-The more the
people of the Sixth Judicial circuit
witness the conduct OF Judge l.. f.
Gaffy on the bench the more he, is ap-
proved. With such men as Judge
Gaffy dispensing justice the laws of
the land would be priced mad respect
ed to the utmost. The people of the
Sixth circuit could hunt the state
over and not find a better jurist.
They certainly would be 10th to see
him retire, though the salary of the
position is no inducement to retain
an,able attorney as Judge has made,
who could easily swell it to handsome
proportions in active practice.

But q Soul was Saved.

SanFrancisco Wasp:-The devil once
bargained for the soul of young
man. The devil agreed to furnish all
the money that the young man could
spend, and Is he did not spend it as
fast as it came his soul was to be for
feired. For several years the young
man managed to keep ahead OF the
game by the aid OF vine, women and
fast horses, but finally the fiend sent
him tremendous sum which it SEEM
ed utterly impossible to get rid Of,
when the young man as a last resort
started u newspaper. At the end of
three months the devil began to
growl, at the end of six months he
was savage and at the end OF the
year he owned up dead broke. The
paper went up, but soul was saved.

Huronite:-Make good gardens,
milk the COW, hunt the hens nests,
have cavles and lambs and pigs and
poultry ready for the market every
month. Raise feed crops. Keep
something to feed them to. Pay as
you go, and go along happy as n

Rockford Register:-Gold mono
metalism is celibacy; the free coinage
OF silver would be free love; bimetal-
ism is the happy and lawful union OF
the sexes in marriage; gold typifies
man; silver, woman; all the little
coins being heirs-the halves, the
quarters, the dimes. Gold has
strength, masterfulness, and COM
pels recognition; it leaves to silver,
its mate, the burden of caring for
the multiplicity of the wants of hui
mainly. Gold without silver is a
miserly old Shylock; silver without
gold, a woman of the street; the two
united and working in harmony pro-
mote happiness and prosperity.

Redfeld Journal:-Iou can take Il

people-yes, and Redfeld, toO-where
people enjoy tha good opinion of their
neighbors and!live together amicably,
and turn loose an evil minded lying
wench and you begin the work of de-
struction OF happiness, friendship
and homes, every place has a lying
wench. She generally is an ignorant
fool and lie faster than Nancy Hanks
can trot. She delights in breaking
up friendships and worming into one
or others favor. She can beat the
devil himself at deception. She walks
the streets of Redfield as in other cit
les. Her very breath is poison. She
has few friends and her company is
few. You know who she is without
printing her name. She is a lying
little wench aud wears her name in
her face.

hagen, Denmark, Nov. Is, 1926.
AT the age of IA he was entered as an

he was the pupil of the celebrated Jules

him, accepted the one by Moses Cum

! in business for himself, with his
brother Herman, as partner. Later
he conducted the business himself, and
in 1856 erected the store from which his
business is now conducted Many Of

and some of Scranton and other places
owe their first steps in the watchmak-
er's art to him.
In 1858 he became identified with a
movement to rebuild the old Cornell
telegraph line. In 1862, by permission
of Chief Engineer r. F. Lord, of the

he built the first line along the canal.
Later he extended the line along all
the Delaware and Hudson railroads.
He was made superintendent Of the
telegraph department of the Delaware
and Hudson Canal company. which po-
sition he held up to the time of his
death.
In 1882 he was interested in the Or
ganiZation of the Honesdale Bell Tele-
phone company, and with ]. Merri-
hew, Philadelphia; II. L. Storke, New
York; Richard O'Brien, Scranton, COM
posed the stockholders. He was made
superintendent. In 1888 the plant was
transferred to the Hudson River Tele-
phone company. He still retained the
office of superintendent.
Mr.. Petersen was a member of the
vestry of Grace church. He has been
Mason since 1854.
He was married to Charlotte A. C.
Roth, at Chaux de Fonde, Switzerland,
June II, 1851.
He is survived by two daughters,
Carrie S. A. Petersen and Mrs. G. w.

MIR. PULLMAN DISAPPEARS.

Witness Stand


tify at the Dcbs Trial-Eugcne on the
Witness Stand.
BY the United Press.
Chicago, Feb. cit was expected
that George NJ. Pullman would take the
stand at the opening of the Debs trial
this morning, but the marshal report
ed he could not find him, and that it
was his belief that the palace car presi-
dent was in his office part of the day
yesterday, but refused to allow the otii-
Ger to gain admission to his presence.
Later on, it is claimed, Mr.. Pullman
took a train to Florida
Eugene V. Debs was the principal
witness of the day. He told the story
of his life from the time when, at IA
years of age, he became fireman of
locomotive through the successive
stages until his election as president of
the American Railway union, at sal
ary of $4,000 year.
Mr.. Debs said the object Of the or
ganizaton of the American Railway
union was to unite warning factions of
railroad employees and make their
cause common one against the Gem
eral Managers association. This was
made necessary by the fact that the
large roads We're constantly swallow
ing up the smaller ones, and a move
ment was on foot to reduce wages.
When he first heard of the troubles at
Pullman Mr.. Debs sent Vice-President
Howard there and told him to avert the
threatened strike If possible. Judge
Grosscup himself took the witness in
hand and interrogated him concern
ing the condition of the Pullman EN-
ployes.
At the afternoon session Debs was
the only witness, and his testimony
was not concluded at the adjournment
of court. He related the proceedings
of the American Railway union conven-
tion in detail, and said that during the
| continuance of the strike he at no time
was guilty of any violation of the feder-
al law, nor did he at any time from the
| first meeting of the American Railway
union until the end of the strike, coun-
tenance any acts of violence or advise
anyone to violate the laws Of the ma
tion, the state laws or any city ordin-
ance. He emphatically stated that all
meetings his words We're to the effect
that under no circumstance must mail
trains be interfered with.
Before court adjourned Attorney
Gregory. for the defense, requested
Judge Grosscup to order an investiga-
| tion concerning the constable's inabil-
| ity to serve a subpoena on George NJ.

FOR APPOMATTOX PARK.
A MOvcmcment Is OH Foot to Secure the
Famous Battle Field for a National
Memorial Plot.
By the United Press


By the United Press.
Washington, Feb. 6.-Corporal James
Tanner yesterday issued general order
No. 4 to the Union Veteran Legion of
the Tnlted States as follows, and it will
be sent to the commanding officer of
every encampment as speedy as possi-
BILE, but it is hoped they will act with
out waiting to receive the order Off
cially:
The national commander desires to
call the attention of every encamp-
the fact that movement is now on
foot to have the government secure for
a national park the battlefield of Appo-
matox. This is project which should
receive the hearty cooperation of all
surviving veterans of both armies.
The ground on which Grant and Lee
met for the last time in opposition
the ground on which they terminated
the awful struggle of four years dura-
tion on terms magnanimous on the
one side, and honorable on both sides;
the ground on which their hitherto
warning legions laid aside forever their
character as enemies, and turned their
hopeful faces from the dark valley Of
internecine war, towards the shining
uplands of peace, may well be held
sacred by all future generations. This
ground should belong, in fact, as it does
in sentiment, to all the people, and it's
physical conformation be preserved as
near as possible as it was in the days
wheu it was the stage which command
ed the attention of the civilized world
and on which was set the mightiest
tragedy of centuries.
Believing this, the national COM
mander earnestly recommends that
each encampment of the Union Veteran
Legion express by resolution its views
upon the matter, and through the rep
resentative from it's district commune
cate the same to congress.
