into the spirit of the occasion and told
the men they need not obey Hobson's

Position In Society.

To all those who spend their time wondering how other people live we would suggest that an examination Of the plaintiffs petition in the case of Schneider versus Hosier, , Ohio St.
 98. might throw some light on the sub feet. It was suit under civil damage act, and the plaintiff alleged in her pe- tition that she was the wife of one Zimri Hosier, on whose good conduct,
 frugality and personal labor she was dependent for the support of herself and their seven minor children, for the proper culture and moral training of the latter, and, to good extent, foH her own position i'll society. The said Zimri Hosier when not intoxicated or laboring under tho effects of intoxica- tion, was an industrious laboring mau and regularly earned and received for his labor S1. 50 Q day. !" There's man agement for you, Seven children and a wife supported, the children properly cultured and morally trained and the wife's position in society maintained
 all on $I.50 a day. Perhaps there may have been extenuating circumstances in the intoxication of Zimri. Law Notes.

4 Bag Full of Breath.

The "pneumatophor, an Austrian invention for enabling miners, firemen, etc., to breathe when surrounded by after damp, smoke or noxious fumes of any kind, consists of an alright rubber bag containing steel bottle of pure oxygen at pressure of 100 liters and 8 metal protected glass bottle containing a 90 per cent solution of eaustic soda The oxygen can be admitted by hand screw into the bag and drawn into tno mouth through rubber tube, the noae being closed by clip. The turn of an other hand screw breaks the glass bottle, allowing the caustic soda to flow out and be absorbed by knitted network in the bag to absorb the carbonic acid exhaled, allowing tho oxygen to be re- breathed, the apparatus being capable of furnishing oxygen enough to last from 30 to 90 minutes, as has been at. tested by numerous exDerlments.

styles are entirely out of harmony. They may be used in conjunction with furniture of light weight and cheerful color or with bamboo and rattan pieces. Lacquered fur niture is particularly appropriate for the bedroom of young girl and combines most chazmingly with lowered or delft chintz or delicate tints of china silk.
 When one receives a box or parcel con- taining gift, if the giyer or any other person is pre sent at the time, it is polite to open the parcel at once If it contains bonbons or fruit, this should be offered to the company.

 The hair is worn high upon the head, the coil or puffs being placed upon the crown, so that It may receive the long pins which secure the hat or bonnet in place. The sides are bouffant, the locks being waved all over the head, and few shors curls are allowed to fall upon the forehead

 "Struwwelpeter J one of the pic lures, represents 8 little maiden, supine in bed, very ilI-and no wonder-with an immense cherry tree growing out of her mouth. This was the sad result ol swallowing the stones along with the fruit, in spite of all warnings. But we all know that truth is stranger than fiction, and the Petersburgskaya Gazeta of June 26 and July s, 1897, quotes the following complication of this saying from the foreign papers:
 'A 4 little girl 2 years of age, Amelia L., whose father worked at the sawmills in Belgard (Ain1 was at play the other day, when she managed to push the seed of 8 plane tree deep Into Ter eaF Shortly after she began to experience acute pains, and it was found that the seed had taken root in the waxy seore- tions of the ear and was growing apace. The father proceeded to cautiously up. root the intrusive plant, and the girl has now recovered.
 If this story is true, it is to be hoped that Miss Amelia L., now that her ear Is once moro free and in working order, will incline it to hearken to the exhorta- tions of her elders and will not go on planting plane trees in such obviously uneongenial soil. Notes and Queries

Sudden Disappearance Explained.

About a fortnight ago Mrs. David
Williams, of Plymouth, gave her son,
Arthur, a sum of money, instructing him
to go to Kingston and pay a bill she
owed at Wyoming seminary for his
tuition. The boy bade her good-by and
left, and that was the last the family
saw of him. Since that time they have
been searching in every direction for
him. but without success.
Tuesday morning young Arthur sud
denly made his appearance at the
parental residence, expressed contrtion
said that he had gotten over his desire
to see the world and is fully convinced
that "there's no place like home"
He said that on his arrival at Kings
ton he boarded a train and went to
Bloomsbury and from that place he
went to Philadelphia and New York.

Sheriff Will BE Tried.

A two weeks term of criminal court
was commenced at Wilkesbarre on Mon
day before Judge Bennett, District At
torney 7. r. Martin appearing for the
first time in his official capacity. 1t was
announced that the trial of James r.
Griner, for the murder of his stepdaugh-
ter, was postponed until next term.
1t was also announced that the trial
of Sheriff Martin and the eighty deputies
would be called next Tuesday, February
1. They are charged with murder and
felonious wounding in shooting and kill
ing twenty-five and wounding iifty-eight
striking miners at Lattimer on Septem-
Der 10 last
1t is expected that the trial will take
place, as the commonwealth is quite
ready. District Attorney Martin says he
understands the attorneys for the de-
fense will make an effort to get the case
continued.
Whether or not the sheriff and deputies
will all be tried together and on both
counts at once is not known, as the
commonwealth and the numerous law
yers of the defendants have not con-
suited in the matter. The presumption
is, however, that all will be tried to-
gether, and If possible on both counts,
in order to save the county expense.

district candidates were endorsed
The question of whether the conven-
tion should nominate school directors to
run over the entire borough was settled
by passing motion to not nominate
such candidates. The decree of the
of the court dividing the North ward
states that directors shall be elected by
wards and the delegates agreed to follow
the courts order. During the discussion
some of the delegates mentioned how
the Republicans came to name candi-
dates for the office. 1t was said they
did so upon information received from
Secretary Sweeney that the school board
will recognize only those elected by the
whole borough. Mr.. Sweeney was pres
ent and denied that he made the state
ments attributed to him at the Republ-
can convention. What he did say, he
claimed, was that in his opinion the
board would pursue the course men
toned above. He said he was still OF
this opinion, but disclaimed any author
ity to speak for other directors. The
motion to not nominate candidates for
this Office was carried without dissent
ing vote.
After appointing a committee of one
from each voting district, with authority
to fill any vacancy that may occur on
the ticket, the convention adjourned.

Joseph ID. Myers, candidate for audi
tor, gave notice on Tuesday evening
that he did not desire reelection. The

and named James Bohlin, of the First
