As one outcome of the financial fail

that the projected Licge exposition. as

Brussels in 1908. has been abandoned
1t is not likely that the financial disas'
ter of the Paris exposition Is due no
errors of manag agcmcnt or the unattract'
iveness of the buildings and exhibits sc
much as to the feeling of rcstlessness
and uncertainty everywhere prevailing
in Europe. The era of peace and inter
national good feeling which Prince Al
bert commemorated al the Crysta
Palace and which the Car advocated
at The Hague is apparently farthet

The Saturday Globe OF Utica, y. y,
says that it has no desire to go on rec

1t agrees with the opinion of the late
Coils i. Huntington, who argued that
very many young men waste In college
the most valuable part of their lives In
learning what other men have said ana
done instead of learning to say and do
for themselves. They come out of these

James II. Adams, for years a
well known baggage master on
the G. V. h. II. and later a con
ductor on the South. Penn. rail
road, died at his home in Cham
bersburg, last Friday morning.
The cause Of death was consump-
ton, from which he had been
suffering for some time. Mr.
Adams health became so poor a
number of months ago that he
was compelled to give up his
place on the railroad, which time
he had been confined to his home.
Mr.. Adams was one Of the best
known railroad men in this sec
tiOn of the state and there is
hardly person who has travelled
on the South Penn. railroad who
didn't know jim Adams, as he
was familiarly called. MIR. Adams
was born in Chambersburg and
was aged "a years, II months
and II days, For a number Of
months he was a resident of Rich
mond, his employment necessi-
tating his residence there for
that length of time. He was a
member of Corpus Christi Catho-
lie church, from which place his
funeral was conducted last Mon

PIONEER AMONG JOKES.

Some jokes are so old that the
chances are that they will never
age" says an old photographer,
"and repetition seems only to in
crease their value. Forty years
ago | went into gallery to learn
the art of photography. A pretty
girl came in to have her picture
taken. AS she posed before the
camera she remarked with a
smile to the operator: Look out,
I'm so homely | may break the
glass"
81 laughed immoderately at the
thought of rays from an ugly face
being so strong as to fracture
glass, but the operator never
smiled. When the girl went out
| asked the photographer why he
didn't laugh, as I thought the
joke was good.
81 did laugh at it thirty years
ago, " said he, when | first went
into the business, and my in
structor told me that he had
laughed also, when he first began
his work I've heard that joke
many times a day since.
Well, / went into Il photograph
gallery the other day, having
been out of the business for sev-
eral years. The first thing
heard in the operating room was
the same joke.
"How many times day do you
get that" / asked the operator.
"1ard to say" was his reply,
but at least five times"
"Now, there are 100000 photo

SUNDAY SCHOOL EXPANSION.

In these days of national eX-
pansion the Sunday school people
are well up to date. The Penn
sylvania State Sabbath School
association, 913 Grocer building,
Philadelphia, finds the Home De
partment expanding so rapidly
that one secretary, Rev. E. e.
Fales, is giving his time to that
department alone. What is the
Home department Of the Sunday
school? It is a remarkably sue
cessful effort to include parents,
invalids, those obliged to work on
Sunday and travellers in the plan
of Bible study by systematic
visitation and friendly help. This
is a great extension of the Bible
school. But there are others like
the Bible Union for Men and
Women now taught by such re-
markable men as Ex-Governor
Pattison, with five hundred in his
class; Associate Justice of the
Supreme Court David j. Brewer,
several hundred; Hon. John Wan
amaker, over two thousand; james
Mccormick, Esq, with three
hundred; and many others. And
another expansion is the beauti-
full Cradle roll, which gathers all
the babies and their mothers un-
der the sheltering care of the
school.

He keeps the parlors very neat;

sum any stamp has brought in

two-cent denomination, printed
in black on a pink ground and
without preforations. Postmas-

had to separate one stamp from

The stamp was purchased by a

WIDOWS INFANT BURNED TO
A CRISP AT DRY RUN.

On last Wednesday evening the
alarm was given in Dry Run,
Franklin county, that the house
of Mrs. Belle Delhi was on fire.
AT once the citizens hurried to
Mrs. Deihl's home to find that
the house was safe, but that a
worse catastrophe had taken
place. Mrs. Deihl's youngest
child was burned to a crisp. Mrs.
Delhi is a poor woman and q wild
ow and being out of fuel she went
to the house of q neighbor, some
two or three hundred yards dis
tant, to get an armful of wood to
do over night, leaving Mamie and
Roy, her next Oldest brother, in
the house. She had been gone
but Il short time when she heard
some one screaming and looking
back she saw it was Roy.
Retracing her steps quickly,
she entered the house and was
Mortified to see the awful specta-
Gle Of her little three-year-old
daughter completely enveloped
in flames Quickly she threw a
blanket around it's body, but she
was too late; the flames had done
their work. Every vestage of
clothes was burned from it's body
and The charred body was laid
upon the bed writhing in agony.
DR.. Shope was summoned who
came in a few minutes and all he
could do was to ease it's suffering
as far as possible. He at once
said recovery was impossible and
that at most Il few hours would
end its misery. The sad news
had quickly spread and within an
hour a large number of the sym
pathetic citizens of Dry Run, men
women and children, had called
to see the little sufferer, wholly
unrecognizable, but still living
and never had any who called wit
messed a sight so distressing.
Little Roy who is about five
years old gives the following ac-
count as to how it occurred: He
said the child was sitting in front
of the cook stove with q straw in
its hands, which it inserted
through the open CRATE and when
ablaze withdrew it, letting il fall
upon it's dress, which at once ig-
nited and burst into q blaze. The
mother with the three remaining
children are crazed with grief
and have the deepest sympathy
of the entire community.
