that direction.
THE annual influx of families who
move here to put their children in
school has taken place. A great part
of our population has been attracted
here by the excellent schools that we
have from the public schools to the
University. No town in the state is
so well prepared for education in all
of its branches as we are, thanks to
the foresight of our citizens and those
I who preceded them.
EVERYBODY is glad that Company
/ G, of Uniontown, is coming. There
are about one hundred men in this
! organization who will be here and
they will add no little to the pleas
ure of the day and will be draw
ing card that will bring great many
more people here. They voted unan-
imously to come and they will be
entertained in like whole souled
manner.
THIS is the season where everyone
who has the slightest feeling Of hav-
ing his pavements and premises clean
starts fire to burn up the falling
leaves. Sometimes the town is al
most hidden In dense sitting smoke
that makes life misery and cleanli-
ness is frequently almost burden.
A few of the fires have been started
4 and they will be kept burning by
those who have charge of this work
Z until after the leaves have ceased tt
fall for this season.

"Digests what you eat"
An Outrage Upon Long Suffering
People.

1t has generally been supposed that
the city clock was intended to mark
the time and let the people know
how swiftly it was flying. But it
seems that our clock does not mark
any time in heaven above or the
earth beneath. 1t gives neither solar
time, standard time, nor any other
time, but just gallOps along for a day
or two ahead and then behind all
time known. We think it about
time this comedy was closed and the
curtain rung down. Or else the peo-
pie, in their wrath, will rise up and
smite the gay old liar, and cause him
to retire from business permanently.
Give us a rest on such nuisance.

The Poster Show.

There was a large crowd out to
witness the poster Show" on Mon
day night, given in the interest of
the Y. M. G. a.
The entertainment was well con-
ceived and well staged, but the in
tervals between the tableaux, the
music, &C., were very tedious and
wearied the audience unnecessarily.
For the purpose in view it was a
decided success, and those engaged
in its preparation are to be congrat-
ulated.
We would suggest that, hereafter,
those in charge should arrange things
so that the presentations should be
rapidly made, in that the interest
should not be allowed to flag.
Barring the facts above stated,
every one was pleased with the de-
sign and execution of the tableaux.

follows: II was in most dreadful
condition. My skin was almost yell

surprise, the first bottle made a de-
cided improvement. / continued
their use for three weeks, and am
now well man. | know they saved
my life and robbed the grave OF

fail to try them. Only 90 cents per

Col. Jas. A. Scott Speaks.

Col. James Andrew Scott, candi-

with his party here, as he has fear
lessly advocated its cause whenever
called upon. He seems to be cutting
out the running for the other fellows.

Despite Contrary Reports, 1t Is As
Stunning Alarming Proportions.
Kingston. Jamaica, Sept. 16.-Ad-
vices from La Guayra, the port OF
Caracas, capital Of Venezuela, report
that the Venezuelan revolution under
the leadership Of General Cipriano
Castro is assuming overwhelming pro-
portions, in spite Of the wholesale irl-
prisonment Of political personages
known to be implicated in or who are
suspected of completely in the move
ment against the government, and who
have been unable to reach the insur-
gents lines. Tie government has
been endeavorins to prevent the news
from reaching the ports, but II was
understood at La Guayra that Presi-
dent Andrade would change the COM
position of his cabinet and proceed to
take command of the government
troops, which had sustained two Sc
we're defeats. losing quantities of nu-
nitions Of war. camp equipments and
prisoners, suggesting the desertion Of
the government troops and collision
upon the part of the government gen.
erals with the insurgent forces.
The populace Of Caracas and La
Guayra is apathetic, but the whole in
terror is reported to be rising behind
the banner Of the revolution.
The government of Venezuela has
one small steamer, carrying light guns,
for guarding the coast, which left La
Guayra Monday.

ScHLEY'S NEW COMMAND.
ADMIRAL to Be Placed in Charge OF II
so-th AtIor,tin Gtorlon.

ADMIRAL to Be Placed in Charge OF tho
South Atlantic Station.
Washington. Sept. 16.-Some time
ago Admiral Schley applied to the navy
department for sea service. At pres
ent he is head of the retiring board.
The navy department has row granted
the request, and has notified him to
hold himself in readiness to command
the South Atlantic station. The de-
partment is about to take steps to
rake the command commensurate
with his rank by increasing consider
ably the number Of vessels on the sta
ton. The Cincinnati probably will go
there. the Detroit is already on her
way to Join, and the Marblehead is
likely to be attached. Altogether there
will be five or six ships on the station
when the quota is filled.
1t IL said at the department that with
a threatened war in South Africa,
which is part of the station. and the
disturbed conditions in South and
Central America, the South Atlantic
command is likely to become an i'm
portant one IN the near future.
