MIR. KINGS SIX DEER.
He Had n Contract to Produce Them,
and He Did So, But Not rs
Expected.

The managers of Riverside Park, Me-,
think that Mitchell King is the most
crafty Frenchman in America. Last
February they hired Mitchell to get six
live deer for the park, agreeing to pay
him $500 if the animals were alive and
in good condition on May 5. Mitchell
took his time about the job. Late in
March he brought in one lean doe that
was hungry and apparently at the
point of death. After the middle of
April he caught another doe, which was
in good condition. Before he could go
out again the snow had melted in the
woods, and nobody could get near a
deer until after the lakes had opened.
The managers talked to Mitchell and
made many threats, but the French
man remained COOL
True to his agreement, Mitchell went
to the park with the managers on the
morning of May and walked out TO
the deer yard in which were the two
does, and with them were four spright-
ly fawns that had been born within a
week.
"iou hef re seek deer, hey?" said
Mitchell in triumph. "Now ai'll take re
money" The bill was paid without
protest, though the managers think
that Mitchell played mean trick on
them.

Trust Aggressions.

The people of the United States
are fast awakening to sense of the
enormity of the political guilt in
volved in trust criminality. They
know where lies the blame, and
will, if they be true to their dear
est interests, thrust from power the
political organization that has sur
rendered the industrial, trade and
transportation agencies of the coun-

War Cruel and Needless.

"The poor and helpless natives
OF the Philippine islands are an out
ragged people, and Our war with
them is a cruel and needless one,"
were the words spoken by Ex-Sec-
retary of State John Sherman dur
ing short wait at the Union sta
ton i'll Pittsburg the other day. He
WAS on his way from Washington to
Mansfield, O., his former home, to
spend the summer. He was almost
vindictive in speaking of the part
the United States has taken against
the Filipinos, and referred to it as
a wrong that probably can never be
righted. He said;
One cannot imagine a more de-
structive or unfortunat, war than
the present struggle with the ma
tives of the Philippines. We were
wrong from the beginning, and we
should have withdrawn Our forces
from those islands when Our war
with Spain was over, as would have
been becoming of so great a nation
as the United States. While friend
ly to the poor Filipinos, think
Aguinaldo is an upstart.
The Philippine question will
not be an issue in the national cam
paign of 1900. 1t will be settled
long before that time. The end is,
believe, already approaching, and
it will cease to be matter of enough
interest to figure at the polls.
In several towns of Pennsylvania
prominent citizens, including public
spirited ladies, have began cam
paign against profanity. 1t is
singular thing that while some
heathen nations are absolutely ig.
norant of the art OF profanity, one
can scarcely walk the streets of a
Christian city without having ones
ears offended by the vilest oaths.
The good people who are endeavor-
ing to effect reform in this partic-
ular deserves the sympathy and sup
port of every citizen who loves pure
speech.-Ex.
And there is not better field for
such crusade than right here in
Bloomsbury. There are here, as in
most towns, many grown men who
have indulged in the use of pro-
family for SO long that they swear
from habit without knowing it..
Young men and boys get into the
habit from hearing their fathers and
big brothers swear, and because
they think it is smart. And all these
walk along the streets or loaf on the
street corners, and pour out their
oaths in loud toned voices, regard
less Of the fact that ladies are with
in easy hearing We have often
thought that it seems useless to send
money to heather lands to convert
the savage tribes to christianity,
when there are so many men within
Our own borders who need christian
izing, and civilizing.
a few more sermons from the
pulpit on this subject would do the
community quite as much good as a
once-a-year spasmodic effort to quell
the liquor traffic. If loud profanity
upon the streets cannot be stopped
by preaching, it could be checked
by the application Of the law, and &
few examples would make men more
careful in the use of language. A
fine Of sixty two cents can be i'm
posed for every oath. A few sucl
fines would halt the profanity of tht
loud mouthed loafers whose bias
, lphemous and indecent language as
sails the ears of our wives, our sis
: ters, and our daughters, as the!

HOW PADDY COMMITS SUICIDE.
An Old Police Sergeant Makes Some
Observations on the Weather
and Its Effects

Good suicide weather." the grizzled
of the New York police stations OBJ
served, as he glanced out at the dull,
overwhelming clouds from which the
rain sifted down in a never ending
drizzle, says the Chicago Times Herald.
"A good day for suicides over here"
he continued, musingly. "If German
is going to kill himself he waits for just
'such day as this. Even if he don't
intend to kill himself three or four
days like this will soon drive him to it.
We'll be apt to have three or four cases
reported before roll call.
Nov, it's different with Frenchman.
When German feels blue it makes him
all the bluer if the weather's bad. But
a Frenchman, when he is crossed in love
or has gone broke, thinks the weather
is sympathizing with him If it rains
when he is feeling badly. When he
makes up his mind to commit suicide
he'll invariably carry out his intention
on sunshiny day. The worlds bright
ness seems only to mock him"
And what about the Irishman,
sergeant?" asked the new policeman.
Look here, young man." said the
sergeant, with just suggestion of
Limerick in his tone, "Irishmen don't
commit suicide. When an Irishman
gets broke and blue he don't kill HIM
self. Not much! He goes and beats
somebody, or gets beaten himself, OF
failing in both instances goes home and
beats his WIFE"

Decision in an Important Case.

Hon. c. A. Mayer has handed
down decision in an important case,
which came from Penn township,
Lycoming county. The effect Of
the decision Gusts five school di-
rectors Of that township for not full
filling their duties as school direct
ors, and appointing FIVE others to
fill the vacancies. These charges
are brought by residents of the
township, who were anxious to have
a school house in certain part of
the township, the petition for which
was turned down by the directors.

4 PROFESSIONAL "FLOGGER. ~
ale Is an EnGiishmnn and lie Says lie
Never Punished the same
Mnn Twice.

The writer was the other day intro
duced to n stalwart wardcr of one of
our great convict establishments, a by
no means unldndly looking man, who
for many years has been the official
wielder of the at-o'-nine-tails at the
prison where he serves, says Answers.
81 scarcely know how the new prison
bill will affect me, but have in the past
nogged some scores of men with the
cat, receiving an eNtra sum on my pay
of five shillings for each one operated
upon. never fogged one yet that
didn't deserve a good deal more than
he got; but, of course, this is my point
of view. OF perhaps GO men to whom |
have applied the cat-men ranging in
weight from eight to fifteen stone-I
have never known but one who bore the
punishment without yells, or, at least,
groans. a great deal depends upon the
man who wields the cat as to the extent
of the pain, and much also depends
upon whether the cat Is an old one, with
toughened thongs, or not.
THE undersized, dissipated city
street-corner thief suffers the most,
strong fellows who have done outside
work for years not being affected in
anything like the same degree. AS for
the behavior of the fogged, some of
them use awful imprecations, swear
ing, with awful oaths, how they will re-
venge themselves; more still yell unin-
tellgibly, like whipped children. The
doctor present largely regulates my
own efforts. have never had to fog
