BIG DAY AT THE EXPOSITION =,
A Day Given Up to Pennsylvania.

Last Thursday, November 14th,
was Pennsylvania Day at the expo
sition and the people of the Keystone
State broke the record of attendance,
not less than 5000 more people being
on the grounds than on any other day
the exposition has yet seen.
Governor Hastings and staff, the
Justices of the Supreme Court, the
Manufacturers club of Philadelphia,
and the Pittsburg Press cadets came
in on special trains early in the morn
ing. There were two hundred in the
Manufacturers club party. During
the afternoon, the Governor and his
staff were escorted to the exposition
by the Governors guards of Atlanta.
Speeches were delivered at Pennsyl-
vania's handsome building. Judge
Green, of the supreme court, presided.
Governor Hastings responded to
the address of Governor Atkinson.
His address made a fine impression
on the Southerners and he was loudly
and frequently applauded.
Governor Hastings was followed by
Mayor King, of Atlanta; Lieutenant
Governor Lyon, of Pennsylvania; H.
H. Cabannis, of Atlanta, and Judge
Williams, of Pennsylvania's supreme
bench. The Mexican band gave Sc
lectiOns between the speeches.
After the speaking, the Pennsylva-
mans were given luncheon at the
Piedmont club. Governor Atkinson
gave reception in the evening at
the executive mansion to Governor
Hastings of Pennsylvania; Governor
Greenhalge, of Massachusetts,, and
Governor Lippit, of Rhode Island.
There is no account in the de-
spatch of the representation from
Bloomsburg.

SHIPPING A VAST WHEEL.
Will Take Months to Carry II From
Philadelphia to Illinois.

What is said to be the biggest single
piece of machinery ever shipped
across the country is now on the way
from Philadelphia to Joliet, Ill. 1t is
an immense fly wheel weighing
ISo,ooo pounds, and was made by the
Southwark Foundry & Machine Com
pany, Of Philadelphia.
1t is intended for the Joliet Steel
Company. The gigantic wheel Is as
feet in diameter, and the face is four
feet broad. 1t will require shaft 80
inches in diameter to operate it.
The great wheel is being shipped
over the Philadelphia & Erie Railroad.
Owing to the enormous weight it was
found necessary to make use of two
specially constructed cars belonging
to the Baldwin Locomotive Works.
The wheel was in halves, a half to a
car, as it could not be transported as
whole.
Some idea of the immensity of this
piece of machinery may be obtained
by the fact that it required over two
weeks to bring it from Philadelphia
to Williamsport. 1t was shipped on
the 2sth of October and reached there
on the 10th of November. The
special cars were stopped several
times between there and Philadelphia.
Ten miles an hour is the limit OF
speed, and even with this slow travel
ing the journal boxes were constantly
heating, causing no end of trouble.
AT its present rate of travelling it
will require several months to get it
to Toilet.

+om the Aoitotor, Weu.eo%o, m.

In Elkland, Pennsylvania, small town
located on the Cowanesque River Railroad,
there lived for some years, prior to 1880, Mr..
Charles II. Heath, whose profession was
that of blacksmith. He had chosen for his
life companion Miss Genie Boyd and here
settled with his little family to earn living
by the side Of his already well-beaten anvil.
On January sth, in the year 1882, there was
born unto Mr.. and Mrs. Heath beautiful
baby girl, with health which promised to
add to the home one more joy. For this
daughter the parents chose the name Of
Clara B., and, indeed, she was q bright star
in that little circle. o..
A few years later, Mr.. Heath seeing a
better opportunity for earning his livelihood,
removed his family to Harrison Valley, .
town located on the same branch of railroad
near its terminus. Here for n while every
thing was bright and the future promised to
be one of comfort to them, but suddenly il
became fully apparent to the father and
mother that the radiant face Of their little
daughter was beginning to fade. This caused
them much anxiety, and physician was
consulted, but little, if anything, was done
to restore the vanishing beauty to their little
one. The father toiled on faithfully to pro-
vide for the dependents, but the sunlight
seemed to be fast fading from their home.
In March, 1892 thinking change in To-
cation might add vigor to Clara, they took
up their abode in a beautiful little town sit
uated between the mountains, known as
Little Marsh, Pa, and where nature itself
seemed to be physician superior to all
mankind. Here, for q time, the change of
air seemed to revive their daughter Clara,
but soon other weaknesses established them
selves in her body, which promised to take
her from their midst.
Physicians were summoned, but she con.
tinued to grow worse and it was very evil
dent that only few short days remained for
her on earth. The mother was distracted
upon realizing the situation of her loving
daughter, and 1t was while relating her con.
dition to neighbor, Mrs Southworth, in
derful results obtained by the use Of DR..
Williams Pink Pills for female weaknesses.
Everything else having failed to add one
glimmer of light to the life so fast fading
away, a fifty.cent box of Pink Pills was pro-
cured from the druggist, hoping that there
might be something in this new remedy.
Already Clara's complexion had grown to
be of that faded color so well.known TO all
similarly affected. Time rolled on and she
was stricken down more closely with nerv-
Gus prostration and again all hope seemed
to vanish. Still she continued the treat
ment Of DR.. Williams, and when the first
box was gone there seemed to be change
for the better. Her nerves had grown
stronger and other weaknesses seemed to
mend. "Where there is life there is hope"
and another box was purchased and taken
as prescribed. Clara continued to grow
stronger each day and there seemed to be
new life in the little home again. Father
and mother were both elated TO see the i'm
provement and once more have their
daughter join their family circle.

Mrs. Hannah Carey, an estimable lady
who resides at No. 56 High Street, Bradford,

liams' Pink Pills.
Mrs. Carey is sixty years Of age, but still
possesses much of the youthful appearance
of her younger days. She had never known
days illness until year ago, when she
showed signs of general breaking down of the
system. She grew emaciated, lost her appe.
tite and 1t was only by great effort that she
kept on her feet.
Several different kinds of medicine were
tried but her condition steadily grew worse

my condition" 4" said Mrs. Carey to a news.

Pills a trial. Some time before, my daugh-
ter, Mrs. P. Raher, who then resided at
Punxsutawney, Pa, had been marvelously

am satisfied that Pink Pills say ed me untold
suffering and probably saved my life. For
this reason i am always viii ling to recon-
mend them to all who suffer as did"
DIR. Williams Pink Pills are not looked
upon as a patent medicine, but rather as a
prescription. An analysis of tn cir properties
| shows that they contain, in a con densed form,
all the elements necessary to give new life and
richness to the blood and rest ore shattered
nerves. They are an unfailing specific for
such diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial
paralysis, st. Vitus' dance, sciati ca, neuralgia,
rheumatism, nervous headache, e., the after
effects of Ia grippe, palpitation of the heart,
pale and sallow compilations, and the tired
feeling resulting from nervous rostration, all
diseases resulting from vitiated humors in the
blood, such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc
They are also specific for tro ubles peculiar
to females, such as suppressions, irregularities
and all forms of weakness. They build up the
blood, and restore the glow of health to pale
and sallow cheeks. They are for sale by all
druggists, or may be had by mail from DR..

A Pure Baking Powder.

A baking powder that can be de-
pended upon to be free from lime and
alum is desideratum in these days
of adulterated food. So far as can be
judged from the official reports, the
"Royal" seems to be the only one yet
found by chemical analysis to be en-
tirely without one or the other of
these substances, and absolutely pure.
This, it is shown, results from the ex-
elusive use by its manufacturers of
cream of tartar specially refined and
prepared by patent processes which
totally removes the tartrate of lime
and other impurities. The cost of
this chemically pure cream of tartar
is much greater than any other, and
it is used in no baking powder except
the "Royal," the manufacturers of
which control the patents under which
it is refined.
DR.. Edward G.. Love, formerly an
alytical chemist for the U. S. Govern
ment, who made the analyses for the
New York State Board of Health in
their investigation of baking powders
and whose intimate knowledge of the
ingredients of all those sold in this
market enables him to speak author
itatively, says of the purity, whole
someness and superior quality of the
"Royal:"
81 find the Royal Baking Powder
composed of pure and wholesome in
gradients. 1t is cream of tartar
powder, and does not contain either
alum or phosphates or other injurious
substance"
Prof. Loves tests, and the recent
official tests by both the United States
and Canadian Governments, show the
Royal Baking Powder to be superior
to all others in strength and leavening
power. 1t is not only the most eco
nomical in use, but makes the purest,
finest favored and most wholesome
food.

Lord Dunravens insinuations that he

A Teachers Jurisdiction.

The jurisdiction and authority Of
the teacher over the pupil is neither
limited by the school house walls nor
the time the school is actually in
session. AS general rule in all mat.
tiers connected with the schools and
the matters and morals of the scholars
the teachers jurisdiction conjointly
with the parents commences when the
pupils leave the parental roof and
continues until their return from
school. The teacher, however, is not
responsible for the misconduct of pu-
pills on the way to and from school,
though he has a right to punish for
such misconduct, when brought to
his knowledge. This is the Penn.
sylvania decision on the subject.

If a stranger don't want his wealth
scattered around lin the mail boxes he
had better keep out of Bristol. This
is to her credit. When a stranger
is robbed in Bristol, her honest au.
thorities never rest until they corner
the thief and make him disgorge. And
another thing. Bristol never nurses
her booms too copiously and rapidly
and hence they grow""gradually and
vigorously. Moreover, Bristol has
welcomed "the bloomer" with open
arms and generous hospitality and is
offering every inducement to the shy
maiden to come forth on her wheeled
Pegasus. And moreover, Bristol is a
pleasant and progressi We town and not
the least Of its salient attractions and
adornments is the bright and breezy

A SIGN OF PROMISE.

1t is given out by Mr.. Spencer that it
is the purpose of the Southern Railway
system, Of which he is President, ito
secure, il possible, by a building up
process, an aggregate volume of traffic
necessary to meet its obligations to its
security holders" This is business
sense and business prudence, and old
fashioned common honesty. Creditors
OF railway corporations are just as
much entitled to their dues as the credi-
tors of individuals, and men who in
vest their money and time in railroad
ing should receive a compensation cor
responding with that of other capitalists
and laborers. the deglee of skill and
risk and the amount of investment be-
ing always taken in determining the
various grades Of this compensation.
The Southern system can and ought
to carry a local passenger from term
inal to terminal and between informed.
late points at as cheap a rate as it car
ries a through passenger I'VE its lines,
say from New York to New Orleans.
1t can and ought to haul local freight
at the same charge as through freight
with the cost of extra handling added.
the charge for the short haul should
be in proportion to the charge for the
long haul. II two day labor be worth
only two dollars one days labor on the
same job a not be worth one dollar
and a half.
Should these equities become the
body and spirit of the building up pro-
cess" Of the Southern Railway system,
of which Mr.. Spencer is the representa-
tive head, much will be accomplished
towards removing from the public
mind long standing prejudices against
the road and in convincing the people
that at least one corporation has a soul
and a decent regard for the opinion
and rights of the masses and that it
has no inordinate ambition to control
the secret springs of legislation exclu-
sively in its own interests. And when
