Resolutions of Coincidence.

At a regular meeting of Sizerville
Tent, No. 103, X. o. T. NJ, the follow
ing resolutions were unanimously
adopted:
WHEREAS, 1t has pleased Almighty God to re
move from our midst our beloved brother, VIM
in the woods while working for his father, II. G.
Crawford therefore be it
ReSOlUed, That we sincerely mourn his un-
timely end and deplore the sad fate that has de-
prived us ofthe ecompanionship of a noble hearted
brother.
Resolved, That we extend to the bereaved fam-
lily our heartfelt sympathy in this hour of great
afliction and may they not be as those without
hope but ever bear in mind that for true consola-
ton they must look to God, who alone can heal
the broken hearted, and while they mourn the
loss of one so dear to them, we grieve for one
who has mingled with us almost nine years,
having joined with lis as q charter member i'll the
year 1891, and always been true to his obligations
to protect the widow and care for the orphan
To know him was to love him, his noble man
hood and great heart never failed to touch the
hearts Of those who knew him. Although taken
away early in life, his many: generous and
charitable acts viii live forever in the hearts of
those he left behind him.
ReSotCed, That while we bow in humble sub
mission to the Will of God, the Ruler of the uni
verse, we realize with much sorrow the death of
our departed brother.
RoSc iUed. That as a token of respect to our de-
ceased brother we drape our charter in mourning
upon our records and printed in our county
papers, and a copy of the same be sent to the
bereaved family.

Letter From Manila.

Warren J. Mead, who is in the Phil
ippines as a member of Company NJ
37th Regiment, writes to Michael Muir
ply, of this place. We quote the fol-
lowing: 81 think the war will soon be
over, The enemy are getting scatter
ed and are now harmless. They are
trying to get to the south line now.
1t may be there will be some hard
scrapping here yet, but it is doubtful
We get a chance for a few shots at the
out posts, but they don't bother us
much. We may move to San Peblo in
a week or two. If we do look out for
hard fight. 1t is walled city of
45, 900 inhabitants. besides the soldiers.
If the artillery and other heavy guns
get there it will be easy for US.

The Modern "Junius Letters"

Gan American Mother" will conceal
the identity Of one of the most prominent
women of the day in the authorship Of a
series OF frank articles about to begin in
The Ladies Home Journal. The articles
will deal with the vital questions entering
into modern American womanhood, and
the directness Of their character is in a
way revealed in the title Of the first article
"Have Women Robbed Men of Their
Religion 2" which the writer boldly
answers in the affirmative The series
will then 90 on and deal with the exact
conditions prevailing in girls colleges, re-
vealing an unusually keen insight, and
drawing some emphatic deductions which
will awaken unusual interest.

valuable citizens, Mr.. j. A. Fisher,

Hon. Warner Miller says: "In all
by business career times were never
better than they are now" We have
never had so complete and scientific a
system of Protection to American in
terests as we have now. That explains
in part why times are better now than
ever before. For the other part we
have never until now seen the complet-
ed effects of a Protective tariff. In the
past we have been struggling, by
means of protection to American in
dustries, to build up American enter
prises, to put them on their feet. To-
Gay, in many instances, says the Amer
lean Economist, this has been accom-
plished and the sole duty of the
Protective tariff in regard to these
enterprises is to preserve to them what
they have already achieved and to give
them chance to branch out, now that,
at last they stand on a firm basis.
Times are better than ever before, and
they are likely to remain so because
Protection is likely to continue to be
the policy of the country.

Saws the PHILADELPHIA Record. TT

Says the Philadelphia Record: The
saying was once trite that "the doors
of Castle Garden always swing inward,
never outward" The meaning of this
was that America Offered so many
advantages to residents that all people
wanted to come here, and none cared
to leave. For a somewhat similar
cause the doors of business houses
which advertise swing inward con-
stantly. The daily and weekly an
nouncements of such houses attract
customers to the mutual advantage OF
buyer and seller.
