lcse under Hofer? The Boer gets no
pay; no comforts and luxuries are pro-
vided for him by fashionable society:
he can look forward to no medals or

Boys OF 1o-a correspondent at the

The Transvaal franchise needed re-
fcrm; SO did that OF England, within
living memory. and in still greater
degree. But reform was not the object
OF Mr. Cecil Rhodes and his political
allies. What they wanted was to give
the ballot to people who they knew
would use it to vote away the independ-
ence OF the state. There is too much
truth in the saying that this is the Sec
ond Jameson raid. 1t makes me sad
to think into what hands my country
has fallen. Had Lord Salisbury kept
the matter in his own hands, as he
ought, for it was really foreign, not
colonial question, there would have
been no war
THE Beers had in the convention of
1881 as clear covenant for complete
internal government as words could ex-
press. That convention was not a
grant from sovereign, subject to with
drawal at his pleasure; it was a con-
tract between two parties, the cove
nants OF which each OF them was bound
to keep and submit in case OF dispute
as to their import to impartial arbitra-
ton.
Even in Italy, where I have been.
though the general feeling OF the nation
is very friendly to Great Britain, the
heart Of the people on this occasion is
with the little republic which is fighting
for its independence. So is the heart OF
the people everywhere, whatever the
diplomatic action OF the governments
may be-
I'VE are threatened with another dis
grace. This is in great measure strug-
gle between races, the Dutch and the
British, the British avowing their de-
termination to assert their ascendancv
III South Africa. Many of the Dutch
within the Cape Colony have naturally
and inevitably been drawn into showing
active sympathy with the upEolders OF
Dutch independence. For this they are
called traitors: formally they may be,
but morally they are not. Some OF the
viler sort Of the British at the Cape are
clamoring for traitors blood, and they
arc backed by the violent organs OF
their party in England. But ii Our gov
ernment should be SO lost to the die

give way to them, which l can hardly
think possible, the voice OF the nations,

the rest, would in this case surely be

BILL ARP'S LETTER.
Death Of Friends Makes the Philosopher
Sad.
Atlanta Constitution.

and then returned to DIR. Goetchius
and the many other friends who. have
gone before aud have left me almost
alone. How fondly our minds cling
TO the friends Of our youth-our
schoolmates and college mates-and
every now and then we hear of an
other who has dropp.d out Of line, and
like the barber in barber shop, old
Father Time whispers "next." My
dear old friend Jim Warren still lives
to greet me when I come and so does
Chess Howard and DR.. Alexander and
his brother and Evan Howell. Then
I recalled the grand and beautiful
words Of ingalls, spoken in his eulogy
on Senator Beck. ''The right to live
is, in human estimation, the most
sacred, the most inviolable, the most
inalienable. The joy Of living in such
a splendid and luminous day as this
is inconceivable. To exist is exulta-
tion. To live forever is our sublimest
hope. To know, to love, to achieve,
to triumph is recapture; aud yet we
are all under sentence Of death.
Without q trial or opportunity of de-
fense, with no knowledge Of the ac-
cusor or the nature and cause Of the
accusation; without being confronted
with the witnesses against us we have
been summoned to the bar Of life and
condemned to death. There is neither
exculpation nor appeal. The tender
mother cries passionately for mercy
for her first born, but there is no
clemency. The craven fellon sullenly
prays for moment in which &c &c
aneled, but there is no reprieve. The
soul helplessly beats its wings upon
the bars, shudders and disappears.
''But the death of good man is
not an inconsolable lamentation. It
is strain of triumph and he may ex-
claim with the Roman poet, Non ON
MS Morisr, and turning to the silent
and unknown future can rely with
just aud reasonable confidence upon
that most impressive assurance ever
delivered to the hunsn race, "Re
that believeth in me, though he were
dead, yet shall he live and whosoever
liveth and believeth in me shall never
die
Mr.. ingalls, might have added one
more shadow to his dark picture of
death by saying that he not only con-
demned us without trial or Witnesses
or an accuser, but the pitiless old ras-
cal would not even give the date Of
our execution nor the manner OF il.
We ara to die, that is certain, but
when or. how or where we know not.
Think Of DIR. Goetohius, dressed at 2
o'clock with pleasant anticipatione Of
Q rest at Tallulah, amid the sound Of
falling waters that soothe the soul,
but within an hour he was helpless,
lifeless corpse.
Senator ingalls, was gifted man
not word painter, but thought en-
graver. For years he was our enemy
and harbored prejudices against our
people, but after he had visited Texas
and studied the negro aud his race
traits, he returned home end declared
that he was unfit and unworthy Of
freedom or any political franchise.

New jersey has acquired universal
notoriety as region where the mos
quitoe reaches the highest stage of his
development, and where it is most &C.
tive in its warfare against man. There
is no doubt that there are great num-
bers of mosquitoes in various parts ef
the State, but it is doubted If they are
larger or more aggressive there than
elsewhere.
Even portiens os the Jersey high
lands are infested by the insects when
there seems no reason for their pres
ence, as there 10 no water or marsh
land in the neighborhoods where they
become prevalent. An explanation of
their presence is advanced in the fol-
lowing novel manner, which seems to
be correct: Every evening during the
summer months great numbers Of
trains are started inland from points
on the seacoast which are generally in
tested with mosquitoes. The cars
have often stood open all day, and
contain at night thousands Of mos
quitocs. These are carried to the in
land towns, where they breed in any
damp place they may find, or, if there
are no damp places, in rain barrels,
sewers and drains. Thus supply is
started that often renders the locality
extremely unpleasant.
The best and most practical method
to get rid of mosquitoes is question
that has presented itself to and per-
picked residents Of many places that
suffer from super-abundance Of the
pests during the summer months.
Kerosene is substance most deadly
TO mosquitoes, and in number Of To-
calities it has been used with coneid-
erable success. So great is it's exter-
minating power that when poured up
on the stagnant water of pool where
breeding is in progress one ounce to
fifteen square feet Of water is all that
is necessary to free the place from the
insects. But in regions abounding in
long stretches Of marsh land the use of
kerosene is expensive and impractical.
IL these cases drainage has often been
resorted to with gratifying results.
Dragon flies are the natural foes of
the mosquito. In regions where the
flies are most numerous there is con-
stant decrease in the mosquito census.
caused by the inroads the flies make
upon these insects. When the fact
first became known there was an i'm
mediate attempt on the part os persons
who lived in regions particularly fire.
quented by mosquitoes to formulate
some plan whereby dragon flies might
be domesticated and turned loose in
those places infested by the insects.
This plan, though lovely in theory,
lacked the requisite Of practicability.
Remedies for the bite Of the mos.
quito are quite numerous, q drop Of
diluted oarbolic acid on the afflicted
part being about as good as anything.
An open vessel partly filed with
kerosene and placed as near az possible
to the ceiling Of the sleeping apart.
ment before retiring will do much to
free the apartment from mosquitoes.

st. Oolumba's Fair and Festival.

The fair and festival conducted by
the ladies of st. Columba's Catholic
church in the Tabernacle on Market
street last week, proved to be a sue
cess. The weather on one or two
evenings was somewhat inclement,
which as might be expected, kept
many people away, who otherwise
would have attended. But notwith-
standing this unfortunate circumstance
the ladies feel that they have no reas-
on to complain, and they are very
thankful for the liberal patronage ex.
tended and for the interest manifest
ed. The CHANGING contests proved a
popular feature The gold watch was
won by Henry Casey of lion street;
the range by Daniel Linch of Third
street, while Miss Ella McFadden of
East street, secured the diamond ring.
There are two sets of furniture, which
are yet to be disposed Of The
whole amount realized from the sale
of chance was so insignificant com.
pared to the cost of the furniture that
they will be held over until the holi-
days. The clock contest between
Hotel Ent and the Exchange Hotel
was decided in favor of the former.
Music was furnished evenings by the
Junior Orchestra and the Bloomsbury
Band. Saturday evening Miss Natalie
Fouke rendered several beautiful
vocal selections. She was in good
voice and her singing was well re-
ceiYed.

HI Henry's New, Big City Minstrels.

Reference IS made to Hi Henry's
big city minstrel attraction OF fifty
performers, who will appear at The
Opera House next Tuesday night.
This organization seems to be stirring
up the amusement lovers all through
their travels, and reports are coming
ahead of their wonderful success and
great show. An exchange says: "The
first part showed nice stage setting,
the scene being Mexican palace.
The instrumental part was excellently
rendered and the chorus and singing
the best ever heard here in minstrel
shows in years. Some very effective
vocal solos, the elimination of bones
and tamboes and the methods of in
Producing the end men were notable
innovations in this part. The work
of the orchestra and band was effect
i've throught the evening. OF the
olio too much cannot be said in the
way of praise. The whistler was ex-
cellent, the clay modeller fine, and
the vocal sketch artists, Mitchell and
Marion, and the Couture Bros, aero
bats, the best seen at the Grand in
years. Hi Henry, judging by the gen.
eral opinion, has the best minstrel at
traction seen In this city in many
years."

at his home on Center Street last
Thursday evening by the advent of a
company OF his young friends, who
had come to celebrate his sixteenth
birthday anniversary. The party
gathered at the home of Miss Mary
Rawlings at eight o'clock and went
direct to the Riddle residence. So
complete was the surprise that Silas,
for while, was lost in wonder. With
a smile he took in the situation and
with his accustomed droll manner
made everybody welcome. Never has
there, been gathering Of young folks
with such unity of purpose to enjoy
the occasion to the fullest extent.
Repartee, wit and humor added TO
the evenings pleasure. Robert Glenn
entertained the assemblage with some
instrumental music. Nice re-
freshments were served. Not
only the party, but two beautiful
presents will tend 10 keep the
sixteenth anniversary a bright day
in Silas Riddles memory. Those
present were: Clare Gross, May

A Correction.
COMMITTEE.

1t was stated last week in this pa
per that Ex-Judge Krickbaum and
John G. McHenry had purchased the
Benton A,guS from the heirs Of the
late William H. Smith, and would
conduct that journal We saw the
statement in two papers-one outside
the county and one in-and heard of
it in another-a Wllliamsport paper
and took it for granted that it was
true. Mr.. McHenry informs us that
it is not true, and we cheerfully make
the correction.
Benton is naturally and properly
anxious to continue the publication
of newspaper in that pros porous
town, and if an individual purchaser
cannot be found, it is likely that a
stock company will be formed. Ii is
a good plant, and ought to be kept
alive.

For Increased Wages Ecfuscd.
other Requests Allowed.

HAXLETON. Pa. Sept. 26.--It was
learned last night that Sheriff Harvey Of
this Uuzcrne) county had tclcgraphcd to
Governor Stone asking that troops be
sent to this county on the ground that he
(thc sheriff. cannot guarantee the safety
Of persons or property during the night
marches of the strikers. The governor,
it is understood, is considering the mat
ter,
II was also learned that the shcrff's
request was backed up by seNAral telc-
grams from private citizens Of Haz,eton
who, il is said, are mine operators.
1t is believed that the sheriff is of the
opinion that the presence of troops will
prevent any further marching, thus less
ening the possibility of serious trouble.
Monday nights march of 300 men from
Cranberry, Tomhicken, Derringer and
Gowen probably FASTENED the action of
Sheriff Harvey in asking for state help.
The strikers met after midnight at
Cranberry, and when they reached Tom
hicken they were stopped by Sheriff Har.
vey and 30 armed deputies. who went to
that place on II special train, 1t was yet
dark. and the sheriff read the riot act tn
them by the light of lantern. The
tions and began missionary work in pre-.
venting mine workers from going to the
Potts mines at Tomhickcn, Gerringer
and Gowen. They were successful in
preventing Il large number of men from
going to work, and in consequence the
Derringer and Gowen mines were Grip
pied. The Tomhicken slope was only
slightly affected. Four of the marchers
wnra orraStnI ba rpa1 will d hrna oh ,f tho
peace and in the afternoon were taken
to South Wilkesbarre and committed
without bail. There was no conflict be.
tween the deputies and the strikers.
The most important development here
yesterday, outside of the request for sol
diers, was the answer of O.. b. Markle II
Co. to the demands presented by tho
firms employees ten days ago. The an
swer is not considered satisfactory by
many of the Markle employees, and what
action they will take at their meeting to-
day is not certain. There is much talk
among them in favor of strike. The
firm fatty refuses to grant the demand
of the men for . and 10 per cent ad-
vance. announces its willingness to pay
the men scmimonthly, agrees to arbitrate
the question of cheaper powder, refuses
the demands of the driver boys and en-.
gineers for more pay, promises to adjust
grievances relating to the carrying Of
men and tools down through the slope in
mine cars, offers the timbermen a new
scale for propping which is lower than
the rate asked for, agrees to build pow
der houses so that the men will not have
TO carry the explosive a great distance
and comedies the pillar robbing griev-
ance.
The MarlSle firm announced that at the
"request of the mine workers in it's em-
ploy work will be suspended today in or
der to give the men an opportunity to
consider the company's answer to their
demands made ten days ago"
