Ireland will prove a boomerang, and
cause more loss than gain to McKin-
ley. The temper of good many of
the Western A. J. A. members is
such that they are very apt to resent
anything of advice from Catholic
source, and thus the letter of his
reverence may be a sort of Burchard
affair for which Gov. Mckinley will
owe him no thanks"
No matter how much money
Hanna's committee gets it wants more
and it has actually had the impudence
to open an Office in Washington, and
send circular letter to all govern
ment officials, asking them to call to
see the agent in charge of that Office,
and suggesting that if they do not
care to call the agent will call on
them at their residences. Yet this is
an administration elected by Demo
Gratis.

Pearls of Thought,

No wrong by wrong is righted.
"A thing of beauty is a JOY forever.
Do the duty which lies next to thee.
Evil falls on him who goes to seek
it.
In everything you do consider the
end.
They never fail who die in a great
cause.
Kind words are the music of the
world.
Energy and persistence conquer all
things.
Truth is the highest thing that man
can keep.
Every good action is in some way
we'll repaid.
Character lives in man, reputa-
tion outside of him.
Advice may be wrong but examples
prove themselves.
Without earnestness there is moth
ing to be done in life.
Believe nothing against another but
upon good authority.
Eat at your own table as you would
at the table of a king.
To be trusted is greater compii-
ment than to be loved.
Success, like other rare things, is
put up in small packages.
Hurry is the mark of weak mind;
dispatch; of a strong one.
True happiness, if understood, con-
sists alone IN doing good.
Life is not so short but that there
is always time for courtesy.
Experience is the best schoomas-
ter but the school fees are heavy.
Recollect that trifles make perfec-
tion, and that perfection is no trihe.

ONE ON AUNTIE.
An Amusing Little Story About q
story.

An Amusing Little Story About q
story.
There is certain young woman liv-
ing in Greater New York, says the
Evening Sun, who has a penchant for
telling stories. Not "fbs" nor tales
out of school" but cheerful little mar
ratives of kind to tighten the leaden
atmosphere of "woman's luncheon"
Itself. The young woman has thus
won quite a reputation 0or a goman)
as raconteur, and she has very
pretty and very choice collection OF
stories at her tongues end. 1t so hap
pens that this young woman also has
4 maiden aunt, an Individual who, H.
though estimable in every way does
not possess collection Of stories OF
any sort, and who, lacking apprecia-
tion in this line, does not wholly ap-
prove OF her nieces success. The
other evening the aunt, with others,
dined at the house of the niece. The
niece was In particularly lively mood,
and with so good an audience she pro-
ceeded to "get on some of her pet
anecdotes. The effect upon the audi
ence was all that could be desired, and
exhilarated by such a reception the
young woman began the prelimlnaries
to what she regarded as the flower OF
her fiction. Scarcely had she got be-
yond the opening sentence, however,
when the maiden aunt uttered depre-
eating "Oh" followed by CLARA, my
dear, you're surely not going to tell
that story" why not?' replied
CLARA, my dear" Its one OF the best
stories | ever heard" mot II it's the
story mean" said the maiden aunt.
IF you're going to tell the story that
think you are, it's-ahem--well, not
exactly nice, you know, and" do
you mean you think It's improper
asked CLARA, my dear" because I
differ with you. It's good story, and
what's more, It's perfectly tellable.
It's" Not If it's the story l think
1t is, my dear" said the maiden aunt
in her most more-in-anger-than in-sor-
row sort of tone. IT'S a mighty i'm
proper tale, and" "Oh, WE'LL" inter-
rupted the young woman, by this time
| thoroughly aroused "if you're going
| to condemn it like that, of course
don't care to tell it. / certainly shan't
| do so now, after what you've said Ii
was more than characteristic OF this
maiden aunt that the moment she had
accomplished what she set out to dc
she began to repent. Come, now
Clara, DEAR" she said, you mustn't
feel hurt at what | said. Very likely
it isn't the same story after all. Go on
and tell it, dear, and let me hear If II
is the one I'm thinking Of" But this
of course, the young woman refused tC
do, although the maiden aunt offered
many other persuasions of the same
sort. Things were quite murky for &
bit, when suddenly the small boy o.
the family cleared the atmosphere by
suggesting: II tell you what Lei
auntie tell her bad one an see if it:
I the same as Claras."

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way 10 cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inhamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inhamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever /:
nine cases out Of ten are caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case Of Deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for cir
culars; free.

A Satisfactory Explanation.

Some people are never at loss for
an answer, ana the colored valet who
got off the following is a good eXpon-
ent of that class. 1t seems he was a
lazy rascal, and his master one day re-
monstrated with him about his neglec,
of duty.
But, massa, rs not equal to de oc-
casion as | once wGz."
why, George, what on earth is the
matter with you now?"
''I's got a stitch in my side, sir, dat
trubbles me powerful lot, and rs not
able to do as much as l hab been
doin'."
"A stitch in your side? Oh, come,
George, that won't do. Where did you
get such thing as stitch in your
side?"

He Objected.

A worthy man who was very sensi-
tive and retiring, having lost his wife,
privately requested that he might be
remembered in the ministers morning
prayer from the pulpit, but asked that
his name might not be mentioned.
On Sunday morning the good minis
ter prayed most eloquently for "our
good brother upon whom the heavy
hand of sore afiiiction had so lately
fallen.
At this point an elderly man whom
the minister had married to a very
young wife during the week, arose
with bounce, and stamped down the
aisle, muttering loud enough to be
heard all over the chapel:
1T may be an afIliction, but I'm
blest If want to be prayed for in that
fashion,

Cigarettes Made Him Steal.

In the United States Court at Will
Transport, last week, when Louis
Droffner, aged twenty, who pleaded
guilty to having extracted money from
letters while clerk in the post Office
in that city, was called for sentence,
il was shown that the young man was
so excessively addicted to the cigar
ette habit that his intellect had been
shaken. His mother fell to the floor
unconscious when Judge Burlington
pronounced a sentence of imprison-
ment in the Western Penitentiary
upon the youth.

81 hear you're very good at arithme-

ly.
Sure" returned Bobby, without
looking up from his play.
well, if should tell you when your
papa and your mamma were born could
you tell me how old they are?" asked
the visitor.
Il could tell you how old papa is"
answered the boy,
And not how old your mother is?"
The boy shook his head.

with a woman's age" he said.-Chica-

why She Looks sad.

Jones-Do you see that woman going
into the dry goods store across the
way?
Brownies.
Jones-Fine looking, isn't she?
Brownies. should call her a very
pretty woman.
Jones-But when one sees her close
ly she appears to have sad express
sion. I've often wondered why 1t was.
She's probably one of those unfortu-
mates who have to work to support
shiftless husbands. I'd like mighty
well to know who she is.
Brown-She's my wife, and l think
her sad look is caused by the fact that
she can't come down town even to dc
a little shopping without being stared
out of countenance by certain dudes
who imagine that they are lady-killers.

A Farmer Hangs himself.
His Mind Had Become Unbalanced Over the
Damage Done to His Home by Storm.

William Klinger, a well-to-do
Shamokin farmer, committed suicide
by hanging himself to a rafter in his
barn Friday night. During the recent
storm in this section Ringers house
was badly damaged, and this so wor-
ried him that his mind is supposed to
have become unbalanced.

An important discovery was made
at the Draper collery at Shenandoah,

Orchard vein was struck and found
to be eight feet thick and only has
nine inches of refuse. The vein
pitches four hundred feet.
The Orchard vein has never been

OSlBORNE'S COMPLAINT.
His Cowboys at New River Must Be
 Voted.

A TOW is on hand and unless the board of supervisors can be induced or made to replace New River on the list as an election precinct, the Democratic party will lose nine votes.
 Neri Osborne, a right-hand bower and useful man of the Democratic county central committee, made sthe discovery yesterday morning that New River was not down on the official list of election precino;s. Neri was alarmed; in fact, he was indignant and straightway hied himself before the clerk of the board of supervisors and registered kick that the polling place must be replaced on the list or he would have writ of mandamus issued to force hhe board to comply.
 Now the question is: Why should MT. Osborne be so much wrought up over New River? It is easily ex- plained. In the vicinity of the place named MT. Osborne has herd of cat tie and a party of nine men is now en- gagged in rounding up the stock. These cattlemen, possibly, could be induced to vote the Democratic ticket and their votes are badly needed by Osborne's friends, Orme and Rosson. New River was cut off the list by the supervisors because there was nobody there to cast ballot; but evidently MT. Osborne's cowboys were forgotten.
