Old Settlers Reunion.

We han the pleasure last saturday
of spending a few hours at st, Paul
with the old settlers at their reunion.
There was quite good crowd there
and everything went OH smooth ana
nice.
Attorney General Boyle made an
elegant talk to the people to portion
of which we listened with a great
deal of interest.
Congressman Ridgely was in the
midst of an interesting address when
the time for our departure arrived.
We are glad we went and are only
sorry that we could not stay longer.
We saw many faces on the ground
that twenty odd years ago we're quite
familiar to us but which now. by the
changes of time, we could scarcely
recognize. We earnestly looked lor
many faces in the crowd that we did
not see AS we walked around among
the strange people we could but real
ize what sad havoc time makes In the
population of any community,
The winter of "A and 70 we spent
in Usage Mission. We noticed in the
crowd of Saturday few we then knew
as citizens there. Among them, Beh-
ney, Boyle. Vest, Jim Hutchings, Geo.
Smith, Annie Neighbors and we
thought of the many we did not see.
There used to be COgswells, Rock
wells, Maxwell. Cox, Warner, Wood,
Long, Fred Hutchings, Hall, Simons,
Stillwell, DR.. Brogan, Hill, OIton,
Cross, McMillin, Taylor. Barnes, Ken
nerley, Dunham, Rausch, Stoddard,
johnson, Nathan, Morris. Cullison,
and Smith, and many Others with
whom we were familiar that are now
gone from there, many of them dead,
MANY located in other places.
Although we enjoyed our visit sun
there was a feeling OF sadness and a
sense of inconsistencies as we passed
among the crowd. We had never be-
fore realized that a few short years
had made us such stranger where
we had been so much at home.
We met many old settlers from dit
ferent parts of the county; Alva
Clark, Cal Treadway and L. q h.
Greene of course were there. Erie sent
quite delegation.
Keifer, Allen, Roe and FdrreiIy
were there from Chanute.
We have promised ourselves anoth
er visit to st. Paul ere long.

The Fire.

About nine o'clock Friday night the
alarm of file was sounded. Every one
sprang to his feet and began to hustle
to find out where the fire was located.
A bright light was noticed in the eX-
IRENE south part of town ana away
the crowd rushed in that direction,
no one knowing what was burning.
Finally it was discovered that the
fire was located in Ed Parker'S barn.
The fire seemed to start in his hay
NOW and soon after il was discovered
it became apparent that there was no
hone of saving the building SO the
neighbors who we're present devoted
themselves TO saving the contents.
The horse and buggy were taken
out and some few other things as soon
As possible and all attention devoted
to keeping the fire from spreading
Outbuildings and fences were torn
away and water freely used on sur
rounding property and the fire was
not allowed to spread.
The fire company made great run
of a mile up hill and against the Wlnd.
The boys got on the ground in an IN
credible short time after the alarm
was sounded but could do nothing eX-
cept assist in protecting other proper
ty by the use Of buckets.
The fire was about a half mile
from the nearest hydrant and the boys
did not have hose sufficient TO reach.
The barn with all its contents OF
hay. grain and feed of all kinds were a
total loss. Ed estimates his loss at
32OO insurance 800.
Mrs Parker, Eds mother, was very
sick at the time Of the fire and II was
feared the excitement would make her
worse but she pulled through nicely

Took an Unfair Advantage.

Down in Clarion county, Pa, there
used to live a man named Major
Green, who had a half brother
named John Green. Each spent the
greater part of his life in thinking
up jokes to play off on the other,
and when John Green died the score
was thought to be about even.
A plain stone was erected over
Johns grave by his family, and on
it beneath his name and the dates of
his birth and death was carved this
simple inscription:
He lived a blamelessN life.
But after it had remained that
way for a week or two somebody
added, "Until the year before. he
died, when he learned to play the
accordion. -
Major Green passed to the great
beyond a few months later, and it is
generally thought by people who
knew them that he had the last
laugh on John when they met on
the other side. Cleveland Leader.

Educated Paupers.

An indication of the progress of
classical learning among the masses
was afforded few days since when
an inmate of an east end workhouse
called upon bookseller to ask
whether he had any knowledge of
mythology. In answer to question
as to why such an inquiry should be
made the pauper said: well, our
chaplain last Sunday spoke of the
mother of Achilles dipping him in
the river Lethe. Now, if my mem
DRY does not fail me, the chaplain
was wrong, for it was not the Lethe,
but the Styx, into which Achilles
was dipped, making all but the heel
of him invulnerable. The book
seller assured the pauper that he
was right and his spiritual instructor
wrong, and the former left the shop
highly delighted. London News.

Kearsarge.

There are two mountains in New
Hampshire bearing the name Kear-
sarge. One of these is in Warner, in
Merrimac county; the other near
North Conway. There is a fanciful
tradition that the Warner mountain
got its name from a hunter-Heze-
kiah Sargent, who is said to have
been the first man to discover it.
Sweetser doubts the existence Of any
such hunter and traced the name
back to 1926, period preceding the
alleged appearance of Mr.. Sargent
on the scene. G. V. Fox, assistant
secretary of the navy during the civ
il war and the best possible author
ity on the subject, wrote years ago,
"When we selected the name for the
Kearsarge, sloop of war, in which
the gallant Winslow sunk the Ala
bama, we had no thought whatever
of the Kearsarge in Merrimac coun-
ty. Boston Transcript.

The Dago.

In this country the Italian is the
typical "dago" because he is the
only familiar representative of the
dark skinned nations of Latin Eu-
rope. 1t is the Spaniard, however,
whose language furnished this slang
name for the men of the Mediter-
ranean countries who come to the
United States.
One of the most familiar names
borne by Spaniards is Diego" It
serves nearly as well as John in this
country as typical name for boy
or man. English sailors long ago
came to know Spaniards as "dagoes"
because "dago" was about as near
as they could handily come to
Diego. "-Cleveland Leader.

Poo In New York.

Near the boulevard, upon the site
of the house 206 Eighty fourth street
and the lot adjoining on the east,
stood until a few years ago alarge
old fashioned frame dwelling in
which Poe wrote that chapter of ac-
cumulated horrors, ''The Facts In
the Case of NJ Valdemar,'' one of
the best examples of fiction which
has the semblance of literal fact.
Here, too, according to metropolitan
belief, he composed the deathless
poem which gave him his highest
renown.
1t is noteworthy that, while sew
eral localities are now claiming the
honor of having been Poe's home
when he wrote 1.-THE Raven" DR..
Woods is producing specious reasons
for his belief that Poe did not write
it at all. The house stood high upon
the rocks in the midst of a pleasing
rural landscape and was occupied by
the parents of Commissioner Bren-

family boarded. His room was q

heights Of the Palisades, and here
his desk was so placed that his eyes
rested upon that inspiring view
whenever he lifted them from his
page This chamber was thereafter
called the Raven room, and the

neighbors that the great poem was
here composed is alleged to havs

"The wife of the president makes
and returns no visits The wife of
the vice president pays first visit
only to the wife of the president, :
writes Mary Nimmo Balentine in an
illustrated article on Women of the
United States Senate in The Wom-
ans Home Companion.
"The wives of senators make first
calls on the wife of the president,
the wife of the vice president, the
wives of the EN- bassadors, the ladies
of the supreme court and upon each
other in the order of the length of
service of their husbands in the sen
ate. The wife of the vice president
holds receptions on Wednesdays,
cabinet day, because her husband is
a member of the presidents cabinet,
while the day of receiving for SEN
ators' wives is Thursday, between
the hours of and in the afternoon.
These receptions begin after the 1st
of January and continue to be held
until Lent begins. Some ladies OBJ
serve the day for receiving all the
time congress is in session. The Gus
tomary preparations for holding an
afternoon reception are to station
one man at the drive to open and
shut carriage doors and call car
riages and another at the hall door
to admit callers and take cards.
The hostess receives the visitors
standing near the door of the en-
trance and is dressed in a high
necked gown, which may otherwise
be as elaborate as taste may dictate.
Visitors may be announced by name
to the hostess by an usher or may
speak their names themselves.
"Any person is at liberty to make
the visits at the homes of senators,
and all persons are cordially re-
ceived Those leaving cards expect
their visits to be returned. Resident
and nonresident Sightseers who cal.
without introduction of any sort
do not leave cards. A large proper
ton of the official folk owe first calls
