FROM ENGLAND.
'Round-the-Wor Traveller Talks
of the Danger of n General
Eur0n@aU War.

John AMMAN q wealthy retired London
business man. arrived in the city Monday
night being on 'roani-the-worid pleas
ure tour He was seen by Post-fntelli-
gencer reporter al the Rainier-Grand.
Though a man OF engaging manners and
pleasing address, Mr.. AMMAN. who is per-
haps g. years OF age. expressed much con-
Germ in consequence OF the warlike aspect
OF all Europe. He Is fastening home by
way OF New York. and though he did not
say so in so many words, IL was very evil
dent from his manner that he felt Ill at
ease because OF the lowering war clouds.
What / would like TO know" he OBJ
served. lis something more definite than

newspaper accounts regarding England 8
plans and purposes in the premises An
air OF mystery peryades the atmosphere.
which. II strikes me. is significant. How
interesting it would be 10 know just what
is happening in the British foreign office"
DO you think general European con-
fict is liable 10 grow out Of the war be-
tween Greece and Turkey2'
i should not like 10 predict SO. but IL
appears that the foundation has been laid
Tor a nFSt-ClaSs European war. IL Is DIFF
ferent from the situation in this big. broad
land. Many powerful nations are crowded
together. and each Is armed 70 the teeth.
A very little thing might precipitate
great war.
Russia and France stand banded to-
gefher, II not under q secret alliance by
an understanding which Is equivalent 10 II.
During December last Lord Salisbury very
broadly limited that such a copartnership
existed. Both these nations. and in all
probability Germany would doubtless be
found opposing England in case OF a gen.
eral war.
Already the unsettled state OF affairs Is
hurting European trade. This is especially
true of England. IL may be. also. that the
relations will meanwhile become so
strained as 10 rob the queens diamond
jubilee celebration Of the character Of an
International affair, as II is hoped SO 10
make IT,"
One thing In particular Mr.. Amman said
afforded grounds for grave apprehension.
ana that was the action. not long since. of
the British parliament in voting such an
enormous appropriation for battleships and
coast defense purposes.

demurred TO the answer.
Judge Shiras sustains the demurrer.
Larimore. he says, is bound by the laws
of the state OF Washington, under which
the assessment order was made. If II is
true that no necessity existed for making
it, he has his remedy through the courts
Of the same state. Concerning the claim
that the defendant was induced to pur-
chase the stock by misrepresentation, the
Judge calls attention TO the fact that no
effort has been made to set the trans
action aside. Larimore is therefore legal

Encouraging Reports.

The meetings of the Eastern Synod
OF the Reformed Church, at Milton
last week were largely attended, and
there were especially big audiences
present at those held in the interest
OF education, foreign missions. home
missions, Sunday schools and young
peoples societies.
The report on the minutes of classes
called forth much discussion. The
reports of the Sunday School Board
and the Board of Publication show
their affairs to be in good financial
condition, and the Sunday schools
greatly improved. The statistical re-
port shows an increase over last year
of eleven ministers, one congregation,

Election Ballots Stolen.

Judge of election Anthony Gala
CHER, Of Freeland, reported on Mon
day morning that the contents Of the
ballot box, containing the ballots for
the last spring election, had been
stolen from his residence. He had
no suspicion of the ballots and tally
sheets being missing until a member
Of the family found them in a parcel
in the coal house on Sunday morning
There was note wrapped around the
package which read ave borrowed
these from you about two weeks ago.
Keep quiet about it and you will be
rewarded" The above is Mr.. Gala
ghers version of the affair, but what
was he doing with the ballot box in
his house ? The law requires the de-
posting of the ballot boxes with the
nearest justice of the peace after the
vote has been counted, and it was
illegal and wrong for Judge of Elec-
tion Gallagher to have it in his pos
ession.-M Carmel Item.

Branching Out.

We are pleased to inform our read
ers of transaction that has just been
consummated between Gliding & Co.
tine clothier and Jones & Walter the
shoe dealer by which Gidding & Co.
will on January Ist, take possession
of the Jones & Walter store and stock
giving them the largest establish
ment in central Pennsylvania. We are
pleased to chronicle this event from
many standpoints; it shows us that
Gliding & Co. have confidence in the
growth and prosperity Of our town
and that their new venture will be a
success, that there is very little doubt
as their reputation as live and pro-
gressive merchants is we'll known. 1t
is their intention to break through the
two walls which adjoin one another
ard put in an archway-the improve
ments to be commenced after January
Ist. This popular firm will then come
before the public with the largest
store IN this section of the State and
one that our people can well be proud
of. The stock in the new department
will be, as in the other departments,
up to date in every particular and
surpassed by none in central Penn
