The first to resign would certainly be the Hon.

Appendicitis and Fruit.

The Clinton Democrat says ap-
pendicitis has become very CON-
mon affliction and the British Medical
Journal has entered upon a crusade
to destroy the popular notion that
tomatoes are productive of cancer and
the disease which has cost the lives Of
so many persons. Medical journals
SO frequently jump into series Of
explanations and hints about diet and
care of health that the readers become
disgusted in course of time with it. If
they were to take ap the subject Of
eating fruit and the great benefits to
be derived therefrom it would be of
vastly greater service and very much
more appreciated. The appendicitis
scare has caused about every other
person to be afraid to enjoy rasp-
berries, blackberries and grapes, or
for that matter any small fruits with
seeds, owing to their dread of the
disastrous lodgment of one OF the
numerous small seeds, causing the
disease which has proven fatal in so
many cases. Indeed, experience has
proved that such danger is so rare as
to be nihil. Every person should be
aware of this fact, so that they may
enjoy the fruit which is so abundant
at this season of the year. Our fore
fathers ate fruit and enjoyed them,
appendicitis being unknown at that
time.

A 100000 TOMB.
Silver King Clark Of Montana and His
Memorial 10 His Wife.

William A. Clark, who is known as
the silver king of Montana, and who
is reputed to be worth more than
$40, ,ooo,o 900, has accepted an archi-
tects plans for granite mausoleum
to be erected in Woodlawn cemetery
at a cost of about 100000 as a
memorial to his wife, who died about
two years ago in New York.
Mr.. Clark is man of great promi-
nence in the west, and is also well
known by capitalists of the east. He
owns at least IS silver mines in the
neighborhood of Butte, holds a con-
trolling interest in two railroads of
Arizona, is president of the Clark
bank of Butte City, and is proprietor
of the Butte Democratic newspaper.
He is also president of the United
Verbs Copper company.
Mr.. Clark is now 81 years old.
Thirty-four years ago he left Phila-
delphia, where he had spent his youth,
and at the head of mule train, with
a pick over his shoulder, went to
Montana. There he and his wife
opened country store and sold to
the miners the cheap necessaries of
life. Clark peddled goods to the
miners in wagon, going from camp
to camp. BY dint of hard labor and
perseverance he succeeded in saving
enough money to buy an undeveloped
copper mine. Before commencing
work in this, however, he started east
and studied mineralogy and chemistry
for one year in Columbia college. He
then returned west and began his
mining career, which has made him
perhaps the wealthiest man in
Montana.
Mr.. Clark has had political ambi-
tons, andin 1892 received the Demo
cratic caucus nomination for United
States senator, but Marcus DAILY Or

MRS. SAMUEL A. ADAMS.

The following notice appeared d in
the Aledo, Illinois, Democrat of Sep
tember Ist. The deceased will be
remembered by many OF the older
residents OF Bloomsburg.

Bloomsbury, Pa, in the year 1898,
being the daughter of Henry and
Eunice Weaver, and was one of a
family of seven children, but two of
whom are now living, Mrs. Eliza Huff
man and Miss Margaret Weaver The
dead are the brothers, John and
Joseph, and sisters Miss Catherine
Weaver and Mrs. Sarah McRoberts,
wife of Brice McRoberts, who died in
this city June I, 1894.
Deceased first came to this county
early in the sixties, her sister, Mrs.
McRoberts, then living in Pre-emp-
ton township. She taught school for
several years, meeting while here Mr..
Samuel A. Adams, who in the spring
of 1866 went to her home in Blooms.
burg, Pa, where the marriage con-
tract was solemnized March 6 of that
year. They Immediately took up
their residence on Mr.. Adams farm
in Richland Grove township, where
they resided for eighteen years, or un-
til their removal to Aledo in the
spring of 1884. During her residence
Of twelve years in this city Mrs.
Adams endeared herself to many of
our people. She united with the
Episcopal church in early life and al
ways displayed Christian character
and example. While on the farm she
was active in Sabbath school work,
and since coming to Aledo has been
especially active in works of charity,
being one Of the promoters and in
fluential members of the Ladies'
Benevolent Union.
Mrs. Adams died at her home in
this city Friday afternoon, Aug. 28,
1896, and the funeral services occurr-
ed from the house at 2 p. m. Sabbath,
conducted by Rev. w. S. Davis. The
attendance of friends was very large,
and in his desolation the husband has
the sympathy of all who knew the
family.

Tramps Attend a Wedding,

The experience of young married
couple in Hicksvilie, Ohio, a small
town reads more like the creation from
the brain of some of the writers in the
comic papers than a sober reality. G..
l.. Rider and Miss Hattie Newcomb,
living near Eicksville, were married
the other evening. The ceremony had
been performed and the guests were
just about to do justice to the we'd
ding supper when fifteen hungry and
villainous looking tramps put in an
appearance and held up the house as
completely as any stage robbers in the
far West could have done it. First,
the tramps yelled: GLANDS upW and
proceeded to search the guests for
money and valuables, and as none of
the guests had thought of coming
armed, they were completely at the
mercy of the tramps. Having obtain
ed all the guests belongings, the
tramps then proceeded to drive them
into a milk house, in front of which
they established a guard. They then
sat down and ate up the entire we'd
ding supper to the last crumb. Among
the other things taken from the we'd
ding party was the groom's coat, in
the pocket of which was the marriage
license, Three of the tramps were
afterward arrested.

The Planning Time.

The time to advertise is all the
time; but for mercantile advertising
purposes the time to arrange plans for
the fall and winter is the first part of
September Business is generally dull
at this time of the year, and no better
opportunity for considering this i'm
portant matter is likely to arise in any
line Of trade. 1t is the well-planned,
systematic advertising that tells; and
the money spent for advertising that
does not tell is more than wasted.

Others off it, and there are others who
relish it when it is in the liquid form.

THE oURFBw LAW,
Il has been Adopted in over 300 Cities
aud Towns.
Mae Proved Satisfactory in Almost Every
Case Where Enforced Let the B'oomspure
Council give tho Matter Their Consideration

Council give tho Matter Their Consideration.
In the days gone by in "merrie
England" the curfew tolled "the knell
Of parting day" and this custom has
given name to law which has had
marked popularity in towns west of
the Mississippi river. 1t is now in
operation in over three hundred cities
and towns, some of them Of the size
and importance of Omaha and To-
peka. The object of the law is to
prevent children not accompanied by
their parents or natural caretakers
from remaining on the streets after a
certain hour, usually 9 o'clock p. m.
The idea is gradually working its way
east AID will make its appearance
among the legislative bodies of some
of our towns during the coming winter.
1t needs no argument to show that it
is dangerous to the manners and
morals of children to permit them to
remain unattended on the streets late
at night. Wherever tried the plan
has met the unqualified approval Of
parents even those who originally OPP
posed it as an interference with their
parental rights. OF this feature the
LadieS Home Journal says: SIN each
case the excellence of the law has
become apparent, opposing parents
have conceded its wisdom, and even
children are said to be pleased with
it. 1t has placed in the hands of the
police a most effective weapon for
clearing the streets of hoodlums at
night, and in many cases where dis
order reigned at street corners, quiet
ness, law and order now prevail. So
well has the ordinance worked that
reports, gathered from not less than
forty towns where it is a law, show
that the fine or Imprisonment penalty
has not been inflicted in single case.
The first caution has served the pur-
pose. These reports show too that
the ordinance is not enforced in any
oppressive manner. In the case Of
evening winter or summer entertain
ments, which would keep the children
out later than the curfew hour, au-
thority is easily obtained and readily
granted by the mayor or town official
tor an extention of the time. Its
rigid enforcement is applied most
strictly to the hoodlum element, and
with this class the police claim they
have never been able to deal SO sue
cessfully."
There is not a town in this state in
which a curfew law would not be a
great blessing since in every one there
are crowds of unruly youths whose ac-
tions are annoying and whose example
lead astray many who would other
wise lead quiet and orderly lives.
Every reader can point out from his
own experience many whose frs,
steps down the way to wrong doing
and disaster began by running the
streets at night. Every consideration
of public order and public morals de-
mands that there be a reasonable
check upon the youthful rowdyism SO
conspicuous in every,town and village.
There is need for something and
nothing better has been suggested
than the curfew law.
