He TeIeGrnphed Up One Flight.

That New York is a big city which
the stranger seldom learns very well
was quite forcibly impressed upon a
certain well known Californian few
days ago. He visits New York twice a
year and has long since learned to find
his way about.
He was charging about in the busi-
ness district and suddenly remembered
that he wanted to telegraph to a friend
whose offices are at 195 Broadway.
The Californian dashed into the near
est telegraph office, wrote out his dis
patch and, covering it with the coin,
passed it through the wicket to the
receiver. The receiver smiled.
what is the matter?" demanded the
Californian.
"Why, this is 195 Broadway" said
the receiver, "and your man is UP just
one fight of stairs"
There was a confused period that
lasted about a second, and when the
Californian got his nerve back he calm
ly said: 81 know that. Let it go any
way. l guess | can telegraph across
the room or this counter If l want to
and have the money. We do that thing
out in California every day for a joke"
The receiver may have been bluffed,
but as receivers go they are hard TO
impress.-San Francisco Chronicle.

Trouble i'm q Lumber Camp.

4 warrant was sworn out before
Justice Austin, Friday morning, by O.
f. Ellison, of'Portage township, charg-
ing James Murphy, Frank Inglesby
and Ernest Brown with making threats
against the complainants life. The
facts as near as we can get them
are as follows:
Ellison is jobber in Harts lumber
camp near Sizerville, and the men
claimed Ellison was indebted to them
and would not pay their claims. They
therefore refused to work or vacate
the camp, and also threatened to do
bodily injury to Ellison if he came
near the camp. There were thirteen
in the camp and all were united in the
purpose to hold their ground against
all comers.
The warrant was handed to consta-
BILE Wilcox, and in company with
borough police, John O'Brian, he went
to the camp with the intentions of
bringing the three ring leaders to Aus
tin to answer the charge unless they
vacated the camp at once.
Officers Wilcox and O'Brien argued
and almost pleaded with the woods
men to leave their abode and thus
save all trouble, but they absolutely
refused. Constable Wilcox then pro-
duced the warrant and there was an
act in the play that was not expected.
! 1t proved to be the trump card, and
the thirteen woodsmen with bag and
baggage surrendered and were escort
ed about two miles down the road.
One man in camp was unable to walk
on account of injuries received in the
woods and to accommodate him Will
COX and O'Brien carried him two miles
on a stretcher to another abode.
Things have become righted in the
camp districts and everything is run
smoothly now. 1t is hoped there will
be no occasion for any more trouble
between employees and employer

Dear Doctor Mckinley: Four years

Among the Lumbermen.

Hemlock lumber has left its high fig
ures. Present quotations show reduc-
ton Of fifty cents to one dollar thou
sand feet.
c. d. Ewing, who is operating at
Lovett, Cambria county, is getting out
16, 900, 900 feet of hemlock and hardwood
timber for his employers.
Recently mammoth hemlock tree
was felled on Wolf Run tract, Corydon
township, opposite the village of Kinzua,
which measured by 5 feet at the stump
and was 116 feet long The butt log, IS
feet long, will produce 2, 500 feet of lum-
Der, 1000 feet being estimated for the
whole tree.
B. V. Wykoff, of Sinnamahoning,
has his lumber cam D on Hyner run On
the tract is 10000, 900 feet of timber,
which will require ten years to get it
out. Among the timber are pine, hem
lock, oak and chestnut trees. The trees
are being sawed into lumber, ties, logs
and prop timber.
Johnson & Weaver's camp is on the
right of Hyner run. Many men are
employed.
William III. Logue has taken a job
from Frank Fox in Big Run. He ex-
poets to clean the run this year.
The Linden Hall Lumber company
mas put up a new saw mill, which has a
capacity Of $4,000 feet day, The
seventeen mile road from Linden Hall
into the timber lands is completed.
Last year the company sawed 2,413,0 ,075
feet of lumber and 1O,O21, ,516 feet of
prop timber. Their output this year
will be greater Clinton Democrat.

BRIEF 1ENTION.

The following from an exchange is
something that the young men who are
short on ice cream money should show
TO their best girls: "Miss Marion Col
lier, of Jeansville, who came to Hazel
ton Tuesday evening to visit friends,
INDUCED freely in ice cream during the
evening. About midnight she became
violently i'll and died at O'Clock. 1t is
not positively known whether her
death was caused by poisoning or by
over-iEdulgence in ice cream"
In 1896 the popular vote for President
was: Mckinley, 7 ,105, ,959; Bryan, 6, ,454, =
943; Palmer, 2,S7O. This year the
silver Republicans will, pretty gener-
ally,vote for Bryan, and the Gold Dem.
ocrats will vote for Mckinley, or de-
cline to vote at all. Mr.. Bryan, of
course, will suffer much more decisive
defeat than in 1896, because Republican
victory has brought with it such uni
versal prosperity that it would be the
very frenzy of imbecility to risk a
change.
Here is a case that will, no doubt, be
followed up with interest by those who
travel on passes: "The stipulation on
the back of free passes absolving the
company issuing them from liability for
damage on account of injury to the
holder has been declared by the United
States Court of Appeals, in the case of
Whitney VS.. New York, New Haven
and Hartford Railroad Company, to be
against public policy and dunenforceable.
This ruling in regard to contracts will
doubtless be appealed to the Supreme
Court.
A delightful little party was that
given by Mrs. S. L. Stoddard last Fri
day evening, in honor of Miss Nora
Stauffer, one of her Sunday School
class, who it will be seen by this issue
of the PRESS has gone to her new home
in Millville, n. j. The class and other
friends of the young lady were invited,
and all enjoyed themselves immensely
until late hour. Refreshments were
served by the hostess. Miss Nora was
a general favorite among her associates
all of whom deeply regret loosing her
from their number.

Don't Lose Your Bank Book.

4 recent decision by the supreme
court is of interest to persons who
have money in saving banks. A de-
positor lost her book, which was
found by another woman, who took it
to the bank, and being able to answer
all the questions put to her succeeded
in drawing the money. The rightful
owner brought suit against the bank
and the court decides that the bank
has acted in good faith and that the
deposIuUla nave received abundant
warning in bylaw which states that
the bank must not be held responsible
for any money Paid in good faith to
the wrong person presenting bank
book.

is 1T RIGHT
For an Editor to Recommend Patent
MedicineS2

From Sylvan Valley News, Brevrad N. C.
1t may be a question whether the edi-
tor Of newspaper has the right to pub
licly recommend any Of the various pro-
prietory medicines which food the market,
vet as a preventive Of suffering we feel it
a duty to say good word for Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Rem
cdy. We have known and used thi-
medicine in our family for twenty years
and have always found it reliable In
many cases a dose of this remedy woun
save hours Of suffering while a physicad
is awaited We do not believe in de
pending implicitly on any medicine fore
cure but we do believe that il bottle Of
Chamberlain Diarrhoca Remedy we've
kept on hand and administered at the in
ccption Of an attack much suffering might
be avoided and in very many cases the
presence of physician would not be
required. At least this has been our ex-
perience during the past twenty years.

Buffalo Commercial, Wednesday.

Buffalo Commercial, Wednesday.
As expected, official announcement was
made to-day of the appointment Of Il. Y.
johnson, general freight agent of the
Western New York & Pennsylvania, to
be division freight agent of the Pennsyl-
vania railroad, with headquarters in Buff
falo. Mr. Johnson's territory will ex-
tend over the Buffalo, Rochester and
Chautauqua subdivisions.
The selection of Mr.. johnson is well
merited one
1t is understood that c. II. Seymour,
at present freight agent of the Northern
Central, will retain his title, position and
territory.
Il. 7. Bates general freight agent of
the Allegheny Valley, will be made di-
vison freight agent Of the River division.
The officials Of the Pennsylvania rail
road are highly pleased with the good
condition of the Western New York &
Pennsylvania and the Allegheny Valley.
On the recent trip both roads were found
to be in better condition than was ex-
pected, and il any changes are to be made
to the physical condition Of the roads it
will be some time before anything is
done.
In regard to the engineering force Of
these two companies, it was stated that
those officials are to be retained, although
the chief engineer Of the Western New
York q Pennsylvania is to have the po-
,ition Of real estate. So far nothing has
been done in regard to the chief engineer
of the Allegheny Valley. The auditors
Of both the Allegheny Valley and West
ern New York Il Pennsylvania will on
August l, lose their titles, as will also the
but they will be given other
positions.

p n. r. Great Work.

President A. J. Cassatt, of the Penn
sylvania Railroad, accompanied by his
wife and daughter, sailed for Europe
Yesterday on the American Line steam
ship ST. Paul. He will be gone until
about the middle of September. Mr..
Cassatt stated yesterday the trip was
purely for pleasure, and he expected to
derive considerable benefit from it.
Since the beginning of the year he has
been instrumental in effecting some of
the biggest railroad deals on record,
and the Pennsylvania is now considered
one of the two greatest railroads in the
world. Mr.. Cassatt has always been
known as a thorough railroad man, but
the foresight and acumen which he has
displayed since he has been in office
places him in rank by himself
All the deals that have been an
nounced have been accomplished, and
the officers of the company are now
putting on the finishing touches to the
last acquisition, the Western New York
g. Pennsylvania Railroad. In acquir-
ing this road the Pennsylvania has now
e direct line into what was once forbid
den territory-that of the New York
Central Now these two great roads,
as we'll as all the leading railroads in
the East, are working in harmony, and
cutting of rates and passenger fares are
things Of the past The Western roads
have not yet been brought into line,
but there is more of disposition shown
by them to maintain rates than hereto
fore. Business at the present time is
not as great as it was last year, and,
while the volume is less, the revenues
are greater, caused by the increase in
freightrates and the living up to the
tariff by all the great trunk lines.
Mr.. Cassatt has been ably assisted by
Fourth Vice President Samuel Rea, who
is not only civil engineer Of national
reputation but one of the bes financiers
and organizers in this county. To Mr..
Rea were intrusted the mary complex
matters in relation to tie different
deals. and he went about lis work in
such manner that no one knew any
thing of it until the deal vas consu
mated.
In acquiring the Western New York
& Pennsylvania it is though the Penn
sylvania will secure'a large amount o.
} business to Philadelphia IS we'll as tc
other cities of Pennsylvania All pre-
parations for taking this Rad and the
Allegheny Valley over onthe first O.
next month have been COMPLETED, ant
the change will occur without any fric

Reiented at the Minute.

General Gordon is still the idol
Of the Georgia eX-confederates, re-
lates the New York Commercial.
i or Il man VINO was i'll state ana
national politics so long he has
made surprisingly few enemies at
home. There were times, however,
when younger and more active men
sought to wrest his political honor
and influence from him, but gener-
ally with no success, even in the
smallest matters. 1t is related of
an old soldier of GAINESVILLE that
he was offended at Senator Gordon
on account of a pOstoflice appoint
ment and set himself to work to
defeat his return to the senate.
He got himself elected to the legis-
lature as an anti-GOrdon man. and
vowed vengeance on the general in
the Democratic caucus. He storm
ed and raved against his old COM
mander at all times and places, and
when it came to voting he marched
resolutely up the isle with an anti
Gordon ballot in his hands. There
on the platform sat the old general,
the scars of battle still disliguring
a face that had once been hand
some.
AS the Barnesvilie veteran ap-
preached the ballot box his heart
began to fail him when he caught
sight of Gordon. His frame shook
with emotion, but he tried to nerve
himself for the ordeal. Then turn
ing suddenly and facing the caucus
he cried out, as the tears streamed
down his bronzed cheeks:
cts no use, boys! / can't do
it! Here goes my vote for John B.
Gordon. 1t was all up with me,
boys. when | saw that there scar.
Forgive me Generalr
Gordon jumped down foom the
platform, threw both arms about
the old GAINESVILLE soldier, and led
the caucus in mighty cheer that
nearly lifted the roof.
