the main barn run east and west and

sixty by forty feet with sixteen-foot

AMERICAN DIPLOMATS.

The closing of the Peace Conference
calls forth for great encomiums upon
the American representatives. Their
erudition and their strength of charac-
ter are very favorably commented up
on Andrew White is praised for the
diplomatic skill he showed out of the
assembly, more than within it. The
actual victory which the American dele
gates won is hardly appreciated by
those who have not followed the re-
ports.
The Russian plan for limiting arma-
ment failed had in fact to be given up
all together. The main point of the
Americans was the proposal for the pro-
lection of private property at sea- When
this came up for discussion it was
found not to be in the scope of the in
structions given to the various dele
gates, or among the proposed subjects
There was nothing to do then but to
pass it on TO some future meeting. But
so cOgent and forcible We're the Amer
lean arguments that IN referring the
matter to the future each delegate gave

comes up again it starts with an UNI
animous opinion in it's favor. The Am
erican delegation could not pass its
proposal, but it could put it into such
shape that it would pass at the next
conference.
To reach this result, especially among
the members of a body who showed
considerable friction, and some of whom
were undoubtedly jealous of American
power and prestige, required diplomatic
skill of a very high order. The United
States possesses men of tact, who, be-
ing accustomed to deal with thousands
in political matters, readily understand
how to manage small assembly, 10 W

w. T. Stead says of the delegation IF
the old traditional policy of America
had been construed with such severity
as to forbid the presence of American
delegates at the International gather
ing, the world would have been a loser

HONOR TO THE DAY.


Tomorrow this community celebrates
its admission into the fold of the Great
Republic, and as year follows year, hal
lowed memories will cluster round a
day which has assured the liberties OF
this Island community AS long as we
remained an Independent waif upon the
historic tide we were menaced by dan
gers from within and from without.
Once we became portion of the United
States we entered upon period of alb
solute safety, We were freed from cares
which We're ever present to the thought
full among us
We are now part of the United States
We can take pride in the advancement
of that mighty nation. Before we might
have been the prey of any predat Dry
power, now we are part of one of the
mightiest powers on the face of the
globe, with a future whose scope it is
impossible to predict.
Every state and territory of the I'm
ion looks upon it's admission day with
pride and we can now take equal pride
with that brilliant galaxy To be able
to say "CYis Americans Sum" is a
far greater thing than ever it was to
say "Civis Romanus Sum-" in the old
days The American citizen is far the
supe Tor of the Roman citizen. We have
every reason to be proud of tomorrow,

All phases of life present surprises,
perhaps none is more striking than the
fact that the transport Indiana, now on

The storm which has been arising
around Otis head seems to become
more threatening from mail to mail.
The returning volunteers fairly exc
crate his name. With the return of
these troops many things will come to
the surface, which have, up to the pres
ent, remained hidden. There will be a
certain amount of eXaggeration and of
venom, but there must be very strong
substratum of truth. The Democrats
have seized upon Otis as something
through which the Administration can
be worried, and are shaking him up like
a rat. 1t is a thousand pities that poll
results of a campaign.

There seems to be a slight clue as to
who stole the $25 900 in gold from the
Alameda. When the transport left, two
men were under suspicion. 1t would be
a great satisfaction to the steamship
company If the theft could be traced,
as it would enable them to guard better
against any future evil intentions The
method by which the gold was extract
ed is still a mystery.

LOST IN THE SAND.
Many Precious Stones Have Been
Dropped by Bathers.

From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
The recent loss by a Chicago woman
of fashion of a valuable diamond ear.
ring upon the sands of Newport has
led to "reminiscences of other similar
losses. 1t has been computed that over
$2,OOOOO0 worth of jewels are lost every
season at American summer resorts.
The greater part Of these disappear at
the seaside, and it is believed that a
comparatively small part are actually
stolen. At the various summer resort
hotels at this time every bulletin board
Will be profusely placarded with notices
Offering all sorts of rewards for the
finding or return of missing Jewels
Last year the loss of jewels frequently
amounted to $4,000 in a single instance.
At some of the most fashionable re-
sorts, such as Newport or Bar Harbor.
the owners of very costly jewels fire.
quently take the pTeCaution of leaving
the gems in some safe deposit vault in
the city and sending all the way to
town for them every time they are
needed. That so much more jewelry
is lost proportionately in the summer
than during the winter is due to the
rather foolish display which is made
of such valuables on hotel piazzas, the
sands, and even in the ocean itself. The
bathers at the fashionable resorts
sometimes indulge in the caprice of ap-
Dearing in the water wearing several
thousand dollars worth of diamonds.
The chances of losing these trinkets
while exercising or lying about on the
beach are, of course very great The
loss of jewelry in this way is con-
stantly causing much unjust suspic-
ion. A wealthy woman at Narragan-
sett last summer reported the loss of
some $1,000 worth Of jewels to the hotel
proprietor and suggested that the hotel
employees might throw some light on
the subject. A careful investigation
failed to reveal the jewels, however
until early this summer, when the lady
herself on returning to the hotel found
them under n loose board in the floor
where she had herself placed them a
year ago for safekeeping and complete
ly forgotten them.

Tunkhannock. Sept. 24--A meeting

of establishing a canning factory here
was held at the court house here on
saturday afternoon. The Elmira peo-
pie who propose to erect the factory
In case 1t Is decided to go on with the
project were present and outlined their
methods of procedure. 1t is estimated
that the factory will cost about SO. 900.
OF this sum they will put in $1,000 and
they ask the people here to subscribe
the balance. The factory is to be
run by a board of directors elected
by the local stockholders, the farmers
being paid for their produce just what
1t brings in the market after being
canned, less one-half a cent per can
for the canning. They invited the
fullest investigation of the business
and suggested that some one be select
ed to visit some of the canneries
which are in operation to satisfy them
selves as to the likelihood of its being
a success.
