AS TO NATIONAL ISSUES.
From the Philadolphi0 Inquirer.

From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
The Democrats Of PcnnSyN ania, 10
serve their own purposes. have refrained
from talking upon national issues; but the
fact that they have done so for the mere
sake Of misleading is no proof that these
issues arc not paramount. II only local
questions are at stake, then why did the
Democratic convention at Altoona refuse
10 accept Il candidate in the person of
Judge Gordon, who could not or would
not say that he had voted for Bryan?
why was II necessary to reject him and
name as q candidate a rank disciple of
William Jennings Bry who, in the ue,-
son of Mr.. jerks. stumped the west for
Organism in its most pronounced form
and why did they find it necessary, .ur-
thermoTe, to place in their platform the
plank which fully indorsed the platform
upon which Bryan stood?

From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Only twenty-cight changes are ncces-
sary TO give the house Of representatives
Ia the Democrats. In party strife such
as we have going through, the danger is
not confined solely to the governorship,
nut affects the party all along the line. Jn

danger that the great keystone state will

DAY OF SORROW AND JOY
Mr.. and Mrs. Monaghan Lose
Their Children-Found Again.
STRAYEDAWAYFROMH HOME
After an Absence OF Six or Seven Hours
the Tots Are Found Admiring
the Pretty Toys In shop
Windows.

Yesterday was a day Of Joy and sor-
row to Mr.. and Mrs. Hugh Monaghan.
who reside at s12 East Fourth street.
1t was a day of sorrow for these rea-
sons: Yesterday morning Mr.. and Mrs.
M~onaghan's little boy. Edward, aged 4
years, and his little sister, Ellen, aged
3, left h house about s o'clock. The
mother asked them where they were GO
ing and they answered tina they were
going out to play. The two little tots
went out. They were omforta bly,
dressed and the mother did not worry
about them until about 10 O'Clock. when
she o out of the door TO see
whether the little ones were still there.
She was surprised not to see them along
the street, but she thought they might
be playing with other children, and she
waited until the noon hour. 1t was then
that she began to worry. The little
ones had eaten their breakfast early
that morning n they surely must be
hungry.
One o'clock came and still they did
not return. 1t was hen that the mother
decided to advise the police of the disap-
pearance of her two little ones. She
~telephoned to the sherif's Office, to
whom she gave a description of the lit
tie ones. THE little girl wore red stock
ings," h said, and the little boy a
corduroy cap"
The mother also sent word to her hus-
band. He came right to the house and
began a search of the neighborhood,
but could n no trace of In children.
Seeing that her previous efforts had
been of no avail. Mrs. Monaghan dress
ed and went out to try and find them.
Then the day which had been fun Of
sorrow became n Of joy. The mother,
after having searched for two long
hours. had Just about given up the
search when. coming down Main street,
h found h two little ones walking
toward her. They were holding each
others hands. looking at the nice things
In the windows along the street. The
mother was overjoyed i'm finding them
and she asked them all sorts of ques-
tons.
The little one answered that they
had started out walking and had got
lost In the western part of the city.
They had walked all around town adj
miring the displays in the windows.
The children had had no dinner. but
they said they did not feel hungry.
Nevertheless, on reaching home with
their mother, they gave evidence that
they were hungry indeed.
The mother says that she will now
keep closer watch over them, as she
fears that the window displays for
Christmas may be very tempting TO the
little ones.
