PENNSYLVANIA PROSPECTS.
Republicans Expect to Roll Up q Big
Majority.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 3O.-The
campaign was practically closed to-
night with mass meetings here and at
various points in the state. This is
an off year for Pennsylvania. The
only state officers to be voted for are
state treasurer and auditor general
There has not been a particularly
active canvas on the part of the two
leading parties, but the campaign has
been enlivened in a measure by the
active work of the independent Re-
publican and Prohibition candidates
for state treasurer Milliam r. Thomp-
son and Rev. Dr. S. c. Swallow, re-
spectively. Notwithstanding the dis
affection among the Republicans the
belief is general that Pennsylvania
will roll up a big Republican majority.
The Saint Paul globe., 1897-10-31

Silver Democrats have reaffirmed the Chicago
and SO defined the campaign to that extent.
Mr.. Shaw, for the Republicans, has discussed
little except finances. One section of the
Democratic party has tried to make state
issues take precedence Of the Chicago plat
form, but with little success, although state
issues, especially the present floating state
debt of $410000, have entered more or less
into the campaign.

Don't Whine.

To make yourself miserable by con-

move. A long face and whining voice
makes bad impression upon ones own

loves TO listen to murmurings and com

Intimate friends, and do that only occa-
sionally. When you have thus unbo-
somed yourself to one who sympathizes
with you, then try TO dismiss the matter
and dwell upon something pleasant and
cheerful. You have had many blessings
and mercies, and let the mind give
thought to these instead of to the occa-
.sional affections that come to you. A
cheerful spirit imparts good cheer to
others. A gloomy friend is a monoton-
gus guest, but bright companion ID

DANGERS OF ELoNDYKE.
The Secretary of the Interior Is
sues q farming.

WASHINGTON, Aug. l0.-Secretary
Bliss has taken oognizance of the rush
TO the KloIdyke gold fields and Alaska,
and has issued the following warning
to the general public:
"To Whom II May Concern:-In view
of information received at this depart
ment that 5000 persons with 1000 tons
Of baggage and freight are now waiting
at the entrance to White pass, In
Alaska, for the opportunity to cross the
mountains to the Yukon river, and that
many more are preparing to join them,
deem it proper to call attention OF all
who contemplate making that trip to
the exposure, priyation, suffering and
danger incident thereto at this adj
vanced period OF the season, even IL
they should succeed in crossing the
mountains. To reach Dawson City,
when over the pass, 700 miles of diff
cult navigation on the Yukon river,
without adequate means of transporta-
ton. will still be before them, and it is
doubtful if the journey can be COM
pleted before the river is closed by Ice.
II am moved to draw public notice
to these conditions by the gravity of the
possible consequences to people de-
tanned in the mountainous wilderness
during FIVE or six months of an Arctic
winter, where no relief can reach them
however great the need.

The Deutsche Zeitung, Mexico, pub
fishes some statistics showing that,
taken altogether, il is rather unhealthy
business to be president of Mexico.
Mexico has had IS rulers since 1921.
Four of these were executed, one poi
soned, four murdered, and seven killed
in battle.
The best briar root from which pipes
are made comes from the borders Of
France and Italy. In the mountainous
districts of those countries roots are
dug out which have grown for ages, and
are sometimes larger than a mans
body, weighing hundreds of pounds.
The wood thus obtained is remarkably
beautiful.
A chalk is composed Of fossils. Ifyou
take the tiniest bit and place it under
powerful microscope you will see an
infinite number of extremely diminu-
tive shells, and no spectacle on large
scale is more beautiful than the varied
forms Of these tiny homes of animal life
which are disclosed by powerful
glasses.
The most remarkable gold beetles in
the world are found in Central America.
The head and wing cases are brilliantly
polished with luster as Of gold itself.
To sight and touch they have all the
seeming of that metal. Oddly enough,
another species from the same region
has the appearance of being wrought in
solid silver, freshly FURNISHED. These
gold and silver beetles have market
value. They are worth from s25 to $50
each.
