Winter In Calcutta.

(lrom the Chicago RecoTd)
The Madam the broad, fiat. grassy land
which stretches each side of the Red road
-Calcutta's Rotten Rows green enough
for an English lawn during the winter
season. Ii is dotted with countless long
horned cattle. horse riders. encampments
and cricket players. The Red road is filled
with long lines of carriages, their occu-
pants in the gayest of costumes. The thea
tres have opened and there is some decent
acting by Australian companies The few
English shops which occupy the two streets
of Calcutta, display their cold weather
stock, and at this season one may actually
get an article asked for instead of meet
ing with the apathetic haven't any" of the
hot weather Eurasan assistant The no
tells are overcrowded. rents are doubled.
even for the smallest ''roofroom," and
everything costs more than usual. At the
beginning of the cold weather the occu-
pants of hotel rooms, or even of flats, are
coolly informed that from date until
March the charges will be doubled"
Young men who have small and fixed in
comes and are paying 100 or 200 rupees a
month for room and board cannot suddenly
pay double. so they have to quit and find
room in some third class boarding house.
The Americans who come on flying cold
weather visits to Calcutta are in great
measure responsible for this state of at
fairs. They generally come with a fair
amount of money, and are in too great a
hurry to estimate the charges made. Hotel
proprietors are fully aware of this fact
and a common reply to the man who
complains of the shabbiness of doubling
rates for the cold weather when he boards
at the hotel ali the year round is: oh
very well, if you don't care to pay it /
can get more from any American visitor. -
Naturally after this alternative is pre-
scented the Calcutta resident does not look
with much favor on the American globe
trotter. The good old days when the
Anglo Indian had unlimited rupees, at an
exchange of nearly so cents, to compen
safe for his exile and the drawbacks of
| the climate and could look forward CON
| fdently to settling at home n hand
| some income seem very far off to the man
| who is trying to keep up appearances on
| 300 rupees a month. OF course, the pur-
chasing power of deprecated 3O-cent ru-
pee is in India just as great as the old
| ascent one. but 1t makes all the difference
when man wants to go home and has
to exchange into English money at this
] ruinous rate.

Mrs. Reaves had taken her when she
was as green as grass and had brought
her up as it were in the servants capaci-

childhood Mrs. Reaves found Katrina
crying softly to herself by the kitchen
window and she asked her in her mother

her all about it. She tod her how she
had left home. promising to wait for Au-
gust, who said he would come in two
years. "und here | am, Waiting" added
Katrina.
AS the days passed the mind Of the girl
became troubled. At dance she Ed met
Gottlieb Underestimate and he had taken
her home. After that he had called once
a week regularly. Mrs. Reaves grew iu-
terested in the case. and last night she
went up to Katrina's room to learn il any

Surprised Applicants.

Judge Mayer has been holding
license Court at Williamsport for
Judge Metzger, and points were made
by Attorney Ames, the late Prohibi-
ton candidate for President Judge of
Lycoming county, that especially con-
Germs those who become bondsmen for
liquor dealers. Mr.. Ames called atten-
ton to the act of 1898, in which it is
provided that anyone who goes on the
bonds of more than one applicant for
lisense is obliged to make affidavit set
forth that he is worth $4,000 over and
above any indebtedness he may owe
on his property; and if he is on the
bond of one applicant only then he
must swear that he is worth $4,000
over and above his indebtedness.
Another point raised was that these
bonds are lien on the real estate of
the bondsman until the expiration of
two years from their date. These are
matters that may surprise applicants
for licenses as we'll as bondsmen who
may have not been called upon to for
mally stand for all the statute de-
mands.

niZed the heroism ofArthur Mcpherson,
a bright lad of 16 years, at Tomb's Run.
The boy discovered big boulder on
the track and, after run offour miles,
succeeded in notifying party of sec
tionmen, who reached the place on q
handcar and removed the obstruction
before the arrival of an express train.
The boy was presented with purse of
$25 and scholarship in a business
college. Agitator.
Hon. G. w. Stone has concluded his
official duties at Washington and it
will be noted with pleasure by the
community in general that Warren is
to retain this distinguished citizen in
her midst. Mr.. Stone has determined
to devote a greater portion of his time
the practice of law. He has associated
with him his son, Ralph w. Stone, who,
although having spent greater portion
of his time in recent years away from
Warren, is we'll known and highly re-
garded here. He is graduate of
Georgetown University Law School,
which institution has conferred upon
him two degrees. He has been admitted
to all the courts in the District of Col
umbia and is a promising acquisition
to the bar of Warren county. The
office of the law firm is over the First

boring counties, in the Superior and

Obituary..

Again the death knell has sounded
over the waters of the Sinnemahoning
creek and another of Gods children
has fallen. Mrs. Eliza Bailey is no
more. She died April 8th, at IL noon,
1899. She was born Oct. 16, 1S41, and
was married Feb. IA, 1860 to Washing
ton Bailey. She was the mother of
five children of which three survive
her. Mrs. Bailey has been a christian
woman for a number of years, always
taking an active part in church work.
At the Gilmore school house, she has
filled the office as a stewart and Sun
day school superintendent for a num-
Der of years in the Methodist Episco-
pal church. She was good mother,
a good wife, a good neighbor and a
good christian, and we have no doubt
she has entered triumphantly into the
kingdom of God, thus swelling the
number of the Redeemer's host who
have come up out of great tribulations
and have their robes, and made them
white in the blood of the lamb.
The funeral services were held in the
Gilmore school house, Monday, April
10th, 1899, Rev. E. f. Muliiner, of
Cameron ofIiciated, assisted by Rev.
G. F. Weise, of Nelson Run. The
house was filed to over flowing with
relatives and friends who had come to
pay their last respect to one they loved
80 well. {2sg
