and my condition with that of year
 ago, when I was a tobacco saturated cigarette fiend.
 Many and many time d'd I try to quit smoking myself into eternity, but l could not put through a day without suffering extreme nervous torture, which would increase hour by hour till final ly, to save myself as it seemed from al-
 most flying to pieces, I had to Fight the little white pipe-stick and swallow the smoke.
 "One day I read in my paper. Don't Tobacco Spit and Smoke Your Life Away just what I was doing; it came to me like the warning of the man who
 waves the red flag of danger al the rail- road crossing, and said that -Bac tobacco slavery.
 q did not believe it. but like a drown ing man graSping at a straw, I com menced taking No-To-Bac. The effects were magical: it destroyed the nerve craving and desire fer ci- garettes. Two boxes, would you believe 1t :? made me well and strong. "I have gained mentally, physically in vgor and manhood, and with the brain free from the nicotine and a breath no
 longer befouled with tobacco smoke am so happy today to write No-To-Bac
 did it all year ago, so the cure is time tested and tried.not only in my own case,
 but several of my friends who have also
 been cured
 We have baby boy now.
 My wife and feel that all this happi- ness started from the time when I first used No-To-Bac and in evidence of our apprecia tion. and in order that the mem ory of the happiness may be perpetuated in living form. we want to name our
 baby boy after the man who wrote the line Don't Tobacco Spit and Smoke Your Life Away
 "NoTo-Bac is popular here and all our druggists sell 1t. Hardly a day passes but somebody asks me about No-To-Bac, so don't want you to hesitate to use these lines in any way that you think will make known to suffering humanity the happiness that there is in No-To-Bac for the many men with nicotinized brains and weakened resolutions, if they will
 only make up their minds to save the waste of vital power-to say nothing of the money-now going up into smoke and out into tobaco spit"

Ratlacation Parade.

No one but "Si," the assistant
editor of our Bryan cotemporary,
could so successfully and unblushing
ly engineer a ridiculous farce and be
proud of it, as that which appeared
on our streets last Friday evening,
as a presumable parade in honor of
his chiefs one. legged denomination
to Congress-. Isl" had so inflated
himself with enthusiasm that base
drum rested comfortably on his
windy protuberance, as with marti-
al air and military mien he headed
a procession of dozen boys between
the ages of 6 and IA years one of
whom carried transparency with
the legend CHARTS majority 90, 600"
more or less. The Congressman was
visited at his home by this inspiring
array of embryonic voters, that is
they may be voters some years
hence if Democratic parades pea
nuts collie and other things, do not
bring them to an untimely and
inglorious end. The childish jam
boree wound up in a back alley
around beer keg over which two
guzzling adults zealously presided.
The above are cold facts, and they
show the spontaneity and uproari-
Gus unanimity with which our citi-
zens attach themselves to the fast
fading glory of their highly respect
ed and worthy member from the
Eighth. The parade as a whole was
a fit subject to be soundly spanked
and put to bed after supper, and fit
tingly symbolized the dignified per-
formances of the coterle of political
gamesters who played Mr.. Hart as
a pawn on their dismantled chess
board

A Jerseyman in Limbo.

Brewster who resides just across
the river in Montague was arrested
here on Tuesday by Fish Warden
Van Gorden and his assistant, for
maintaining an eel weir in the Della
ware, and in default of bail was
locked up. There appears to be a
wonderful facination in obtaining
fish contrary to law. Whether the
statutes prohibiting weirs are
just, reasonable or equitable, is a
question which may be discussed
without harm, but that any one so
long as they are in force would be so
foolhardy as to take the chances of
heavy fine or Imprisonment de-
monstrates that some men are more
fish hungry than wise.

The Philadelphia Press editori-

Congressman a compliment in this
plain language. Few men less fit
to represent an intelligent constitu-
ency than Congressman Hart ever
got into the House from this great
State.

ton, in regard to the effort made by
citizens of Pike while he was repre-
sentative from this County, to COM
pei the rebuilding of the bridge at
Matamoras which had been avoided
by Jim Fisk's shrewd manipulation,
is still so rank an odor in the nostrils
of our people, that self acting clothes
pins are at a premium when ever
his name is mentioned, was a fitting
instrument to aid Monroe in admin
istering her dose to Pike in the
shape of a Hart.

nomination was made by acclama-

The conference then adjourned to
meet at the call Of Chairman Stap-

vention, the Monroe and Pike sup
porters gave three more loud cheers
for the Pike County Congressman.
The certificates of nomination of
the respective candidates were i'm
mediately forwarded by messengers
to Harrisburg to be filed with the
Secretary of the Commonwealth,
and it is learned that the one of Mr..
Hart was the first filed, and that in
addition to it nomination by nomi-
nation papers will be made, thus en-
suring him a place on the ticket
should a decision of the Courts as to
the regularity of his certificate be
adverse to its validity.

OBITUARY.
MRS. AMERrous D. FRIspIE.

MRS. AMERICUS ID. FRISBIE.
Eta, wife of Americus d. Frisbic,
of Greene died Thursday, Sept. "a
at her home in that township aged
about twenty nine years. She was
the eldest daughter of Silas ]. Dick
erson and is survived by her hus-
band and three children the eldest
being only five years and the young
est an infant. She was a most es-
timable woman, and her loss is not
only a sad bereavement to her de-
voted husband, but irreparable to
the little children left at such ten
der years without the loving care
and gentle guidance which only a
mothers hand and heart can be-
stow. The funeral took place at
Hemlock Grove Church ON Sunday,
conducted by the Rev. Boyce, and
the large concourse of people pre-
sent attested the respect and esteem
in which she was held, and also the
heart felt sorrow at her untimely
death.

UNANIMOUS FOR
KIRKPATRICK.
The Bx-Attorney General Nomi-
mated in the Eighth District.
REPUBLICANS CONFIDENT.
The Split Among the Democrats of the
District Makes the Nominees
Election a Certainty.

EAsToN, Sept 20. - The Republi-
can conference of the Eighth Con-
gressional District was held this af-
ternoon in this city, and unanim-
ously chose ex-Attorney General w.
S. Kirkpatrick as the nominee for
Congress. The conferrees present
were: Northampton, r. G. Stewart
and HI. d. Maxwell, Easton g. F,
Brown, South Bethlehem Baxter
B. Mcclure, East Allen; A. G..
Prince, Bethlehem Willis Howell,
Lower Mt. Bethel G. B. Camden,
Bangor, and j. w. Pascoe, South
Easton Carbon, DIR. g. Stewart
Kirby, Mauch Chunk N. M. Bal
liet, Lehighton L. L. Finley, Sum-
NIT Hill E. F. Seitz, Bowmans-
town Monroe, DR.. T. G. Walton,
Stroudsburg Pike, Ebenezer War
ner, Milford. There were a num-
Der of Republicans from Monroe and
Carbon, as well as Northampton,
present. Hon. Ebenezer Warner
was selected as chairman DIR. Wal
ton, of Stroudsburg, and DIR. Kirby,
of Mauch Chunk, were the secre-
taries.
Ex-District Attorney Stewart, of
Northampton, nominated Mr.. Kirk
patrick. He was sent for, and on
appearing before the conference was
notified of it's action. In a short
speech he expressed his thanks to
the conference. All the conferrees
expressed the belief that the out
look could not possibly be more fav-
orable to Judge Kirkpatrick's elec-
ton.
The Democrats of this district are
hopelessly divided and two candi-
dates have been nominated, Hon. j.
J. Hart, the present Congressman,
was backed by Monroe and Pike
counties, and Northampton and
Carbon selected another candidate
of their own. This division of the
muddled Bryanites makes the Eighth
District absolutely sure for Kirk
patrick.

Mr.. Mitchell For Associate Judge.

Hon. VIM. Mitchell, of Milford,
who was nominated by the Republi-
can convention without dissenting
voice calls attention in an other col
umn to his candidacy. That he
would adorn the position, by his
character and qualifications, are so
well known by the people as to need
no emphasis. His location is con-
venient and he can always be found
at his place of business when his SER
vices may be required. This fact
alone is strong argument why
those desiring to aid in the accom-
mOdation of the public should see
that he receives their support.

HERMAN PAUL SCHULTZ
Arrested in New York Charged
with Arson on Complaint
Of his Son.

The Man Who was Last Week Discharged
From Our Jan Now Accused of Muir
dering His wife-Account of the Ar
rest.
Yhe New York Herald of Wednes-
day Sontains a long and circumstan-
tial decount of the arrest of Schultz
who is charged by his nineteen
year-old son, Charles Edmund
Schultz with having been the in
stigator of several fires in his busi.
ness places in New York, and also
with great cruelty to his wife, threats
that he would kill her and the di-
rect accusation that he had done so.
Our readers will recall the story in
last weeks Press in which the
strange circumstance of Schultz be-
ing in the room with his wife when
she was shot at Wohlfarth' S House
in Shohola, and claiming not to have
heard the shot or known of her
death until he was aroused in the
morning, the failure of the coroner S
jury to find any suspicion against
him, and his discharge from Gus
tody, was told.
The Herald also repeats this in
part, and says the young man knew
nothing of these matters until his
father returned to New York last
Wednesday, when he learned of the
sudden and peculiar death of his
mother, and knowing the character
and instincts of his father from long
and bitter experience, he at once de-
cided that his father was guilty,
and, he says told him sd To this
the father responded with a threat
that frightened both himself and
younger brother so that they have
not dared to return home since, but
went to Shohola where he has since
been investigating the circumstances
surrounding the shooting.
In this he was aided by lawyer
of New York, who was at the house
when the affair occurred. Return
ing to New York the young man
made the complaint and procured
the arrest of his father on the
charge of arson.
He alleges that before his father
went to Shohola he called where the
boy works and asked for his wife's
address saying he had received
money from Germany and wished
to give her some to straighten mat
ters up. The address was refused,
but the father exhibited a roll of It's
sue paper saying it contained money
and this is supposed to be the
money which he alleges he gave to
his wife but which has not been
found.
The boy further says that before
his father went to Shohola he called
on Mrs. Macy, in Brooklyn, and
made this threat, " Mrs Macy, if
Liz don't come home with me, I'll
shoot her where she is. "
