Judge Woodward on Tuesday
handed down an opinion in the case
Of J. H. Mahon against the County
Commissioners Of Luzerne county
for perpetual injunction to restrain
them from erecting the new court
house on the square at Wilkes
Barre. The Judge ventured the
hope that the Commissioners will,
without further litigation, place the
court house elsewhere than on the
square. He says in primitive times
it was customary to have the court
house built upon the public square,
but when all the business of pro-
gressive city is centered on the
same square, it is no longer the
place for the court house.

Gould Speak of the Don.

What is the truth about the
whole Philippine situation
What caused the war?
Who is to blame for the failure
of General Otis campaign
What should be the policy of the
United States towards the Flip
mos when the war ends Are they
fit for self-government, or must we
hold them as subject people?
There is one man to whom this
nation would listen with the pro-
foundest respect were he at liberty
TO speak fully in answer to these
questions. His Judgment would
be taken as decisive by nine-tenths
of his fellow countryinen.
That man is Admiral Dewey.
Were President Mckinley to free
the Admiral from all the customary
official restraints and formally in
vite him to address the nation with
entire frankness on this subject,
about which he knows more than
anybody else, the President would
do a timely and very wise thing
The censorship has withheld
facts which ought now to be put
INTO the possession of the American
people, who must in the end be the
:..a,s" to pass upon what has been
luas 1s ord to determine what shall
be done hereafter. - s,a.L

A novel continuous chain "
plan has been started by the Young
Mems Christian Association, Of
Wilkes Barre, to influence against
profanity. Printed slips have been
issued which read: Will the one
who receives this write one or more
copies and make this same request
to thus continue the chain. Then
upon the other side of the slip APP
pears these words -
Important-One Of the blackest
of all sins is that Of profanity.
Men curse God, and most always
thoughtlessly. But this will ex-
cuse no one. Will all who are adj
dicted to this terrible habit stop to
reason ? God in His infinite mercy
has spared you uEtil now, but you
will not doubt his power to cut you
off without warning. May you
learn to revere that holy name and
honor God, who is the author of
all Our blessings here, and from
whom we expect more in eternity"
The moral influence of this move
will probably be considerable, as
there are a few Of those addicted
to profanity who are not so through
force OF habit and unmindful that
at times it may jar upon the ears of
others.

How to Keep Flowers.

Harper's BaSar for the current
week gives some excellent ideas on
the preservation of cut flowers. Merely
putting the stems into water is appar-
emily not sufficient, and with a little
more care even the most perishable
blossoms may be preserved.
"All leaves should be removed from
the part of the flower stem that is to
lie underneath the water" says the
Basar, "otherwise these sodden leaves
decay and make the water offensivei
Every day the flowers must be care
fully lifted from the water, and the
eighth of an inch cut with sharp scis-
sors from the end of the stem. The
vase must then be emptied, washed
out, and reflled with fresh water"
