THE OPENING SERVICES.
The visiting clergy began arriving In
the city on Friday. All Friday night the
Bishop elect accompanied by members Of
the clergy of the diocese kept q vigil In
the cathedral. The services of the day be-
/ gan with the early celebration of the
| Holy Communion at seven o'clock, At
which large number Of the practitioners
OF the parish of st. Luke were present.
DEM Stills was the cslebrsnt and was as
sisted by the Rev. Mr.. Dsgen Of Augusta.
1t was soon after the conclusion OF this
ssrvics that the ohuorh began filling
| with those who desired to be present ct
morning proper which was to precede the
conservation prayer. At nine morning
prayer was said by Dean Stills, assisted BY
the Rev. Russell Woodman Of Rookland.
Morning prayer was said early In the
! forenoon In order that there might be an
interval during which those who were
able to attend only the conservation could
| find places in the church. During this
three quarters of an hour the people en-
tered the building In q steady stream and
during the last few minutes. ths ushers
were kept busy finding places for the late
arrivala 1t was congregation which
was eagerly sxpectant and yet restrained
any unseemly exhibition OF its curiosity.
It had gathered to witness one Of the
most imposing OF the osremouials Of the
| Church, imposing both in the beauty OF
the ritual employed and the solem nifty OF
the even. At just 10 80, the slow strains
Of the organ swept through the church
and the doors to the chapel opened. From
the entrance came the long procession OF
choristers, Bishops and priests, headed
by the cross bearer holding aloft the
golden symbol OF the Church. The GRIM
son consocation gowns and scholastic
hords of the Bishops Of the Canadian
| cnuroh made dashes OF color amid the
white and black Of the vestments worn
| by the other clergy. Slowly the proces-
sion made its way down the north aisle
to the transept and then turning into
the central aisle proceeded to the chaneel.

STATE TREASURER BEACON has COM
pleted the distribution of the school ap.
preparation tor the current fiscal year,
ending May 81 next. This is the first
time the school districts have been paid
before March | since the appropriation
was increased to S5,5OO,OOO. The State
fiscal officers estimate the State revenues
for 1900 at Sl2, l2l, 1850, or about $500, 900
less than the receipts of 1899. Mr.. Bea-
com says if business conditions continue
as good for five years as they have for the
present Is months the State will be able,
under the present revenue law, to meet
its obligations, but that even the present
conditions will not justify any increase of
appropriations. He believes il would be
a mistake to change the present system
of State taxation in Pennsylvania. The
large increase in the State revenues the
past year over the previous II months
have cnabl the State Treasurer to settle
promptly all the claims against the com.
monwealth.

Why Not Celebrate !

Western Pennsylvania can reckon on
being about 100 years of age. Eight of
the counties of this end of the State were
organized in 1900, and are therefore a
century old. No other year saw so many
new counties created as in 1900, and it is
singular that all of the ten counties Or
ganized in 1900 were western counties,
excepting Adams and Centre, says the
Pittsburg Times.
\Armstrong, Butler, Beaver, Crawford,
Erie, Mercer, Venango and Warren were
organized that year, and within the next
four years Indiana, Jefferson, Cambria
and Clearfield were added to the western
list. Clarion, Elk, Forest and Lawrence
are the only counties organized in the
western part of the state since 1904.
Greene, Somerset, Allegheny, Fayette,
Washington and Westmoreland are all
older, Westmoreland established in 1873,
being the pioneer among the counties of
this end of the State. 1t will be seen,
therefore, that the beginning OF the GEN.
tury witnessed the installation of the
principal SEATS ofjustice and county gov
ernment west of the Alloghenies, and
that organization has almost finished its
first century in the majority of the coun-
ties in the district.
Some of the counties are arranging Gel
ebrations, and some have already COM
memorated their century of existence.
Others are permitting the hundredth an
niversary to go past without any recog-
milton. But it would not be out of order
some time between this and the anniver-
sary of the date of the organization of the
last lot of western counties, which fell in
1894, to arr ange for some joint affair in
which the whole of Western Pennsylva-
mia might unite, for the creative period
of all b, a few Of the counties came so
near together that the effect was the crea-
tiOn of an empire rather than of county
organizations. Western Pennsylvania is
century old, which is sufficient grounds
for birthday rejoicing.

THE silver Democrats in the House are
greatly disgusted over Sibley's recent
stand for prosperity. The Pennsylvania
Statesman was a tower of strength in the
Democratic camp during the 1896 cam
paign, consequently his present turn
about is keenly felt by his erstwhile col
leagues. The other day in Congress he re-
ferred to the taunts and jibes constantly
directed at him from the Democratic side
because of his expansion speech. They
might, he said, call him a turncoat if it
made them feel any better, but he would
nevertheless turn his coat whenever the
inside looked better than the outside.
"Some of my Democratic friends" he
added, would do well at this time to
turn their coats inside out and thus cover
the rags and tatters in which they are
clothed"

IT is significant fact that nobody
thought it worth while to mention that
the gold reserve in the treasury in the
past few weeks was going downward, and
that it had dropped more than $40, ,OOO, 900
below its previous high water mark. 1t
is now on the increase again, but the
circumstance attracts no attention. The
reserve was so much higher even when
at its recent lowest, than it was until the
past year or two, and the certainty is so
strong that the gold standard bill will
pass and the Republican party remain in
control of the country that nobody trou-
bles himself to glance at treasury state
ments. All the gold which will be nee ded
to meet the governments requirements
will be in the treasury so long as the Re-
publican party remains in charge of the
government, and, happily, Republican
tenure of power for long time in the
future seems certain.

THEY are always making wonderful
medical discoveries in Paris. Lately
they have beeu running to serums, and
the very newest of these is one that will
cure the cocktail habit and cause a man
to suddenly cease to look upon the whis-
ky while it is red or any other old color.
Like many other serums it is taken from
the veins Of a horse, In the first place
the horse is trained to drink whisky and
to take pleasure in acquiring jags, then,
when he is well soaked and on the verge
Of delerium tremens the serum is taken
from him and injected into the veins of
the jolly old topper who suddenly finds
that he has lost all desire to stand in front
Of bar, and feels no inclination what
ever to rinse his insides with spirits. This
is going to be great fun for the horses
and is likely to postpone still farther the
horseless age; for it is going to take
great number Of horses to produce
enough serum TO go round and to bring
all of the devotes of the bottle down TO
