Tam Samson was gray haired vet
eran sportsman, who on one occasion,
when out moorfowl shooting and feel
ing the weight of years begin to press
upon him, expressed the belief that the
expedition was to be his last and de-
sired, in somewhat tragic style, that
he might die and be buried in the
moors,
Burns, hearing of this, Immediately
composed his famous elegy, in which
he related at length the exploits and
skill of his hero, ending each verse
with the plaintiye line, Tam Samson's
dead"
Some one having told Samson that
Burns had written a poem-"a gey
queer ane"- about him, he sent for the
poet and in something like wrath asked
him to read what he had written. On
hearing the recital of his exploits he
smiled Grlmly and seemed by no means
displeased But" he exclaimed, Pm
no dead yet, Robin. Wherefore should
We say that I'm dead?" Burns retired
for few minutes: then he returned
and recitpd to Tam the following verse,
which lie had composed In the inter-
val:

claimed, That's no bad, Robin; that'll
do" and the poet was received once

COLONY.

For tie first time in two years the little
English colony on the Island of Tristan
d'Acunha is to receive news of the out
side world.
The Penguin, a ship belonging to
Messrs. Dawson & Co, London, recently
took out a trading expedition to the
neighboring island, and will make a call
at Tristan with mails, parcels and such
articles of luxury as charitable people
felt inclined to send.
The island used ia be regularly visited
by her majesty's ships of war. But it's
position between Africa and South Amer
lea, As days steam from England-made
the journey a very expensive one, espeC-
tally now that steam alone is used on
cruisers. Sailing vessels, too, once made
it a place of call; but the increase of
steamships has robbed the island of this
means of communication. So it comes
about that only by a chance commercial
venture shall we be able to obtain It'd
ings of the little community.
Small as the population is, it has been
steadil growing. In 1917, when the Brit
ish garrison was withdrawn, Corporal
Glass, his wife and family, and two 9TH
err men We're the only inhabitants left be-
hind. In 1926 there We're seven men and
two women. Recruited from various
shipwrecks, these had increased in 1873 to

females considerably exceeded the males.
One of the things most NEEDED by the in
habitants is rat poison. The ordinary
English rodent was acclimated there ear
ly in the century, probably by following
his usual practice Of deserving a sinking
ship. Since then the tribe has thrive to
such an extent that the catts also Eng

list only on suffrance from the vermin.
Among the cargo Of the Penguin will be
four or five male p~ussies, and it Is hoped
that the feline species may be improved.

5O9:: Posey county, 2,49S; total II, SAB.
There are AZ counties north of the Ma
tional road, which runs through Rich
mond and Indianapolis, and yet these
counties had credited to them last year
but 1854 mules. This amount is neaarly
1000 less than the number of the long
cared brutes to be found in the six coun-
ties Of the First District. In the Sc coun-
ties Of the Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth.
Ninth, Tenth Eleventh, Twelfth and
Thirteenth Congressional Districts there
are but IA. 799 mules-almost 200 less than
in these eight counties of the pocket
district. In the one small county Of Pike
there are considerably more mules than
can be found in the two north tiers of In
HAN counties.
The climate has nothing to do with this
condition for the mules of the northern
part of the state are as healthful n Wig
orous as those in the southern part. But
it seems that the northern Indiana farm
err has a contempt for the animal which
has such an innocent face and so treach-
erous a pair of heels. In the north
bicycles, rubber-tired carriages and in
| terurban cars have combined to ostracize
the mule. In the south the case is differ
ent. There the mule is given an honor
able position with all kinds of travelling
outfits.

LIBERTY AND EQUALITY.

We believe that our republic is a freer
country thar a monarchy. and certainly
that a president lis less absurd than a
king, and such liberty as we have now
is safer under democratic forms. We
fondly figure the American who earns
his bread by the sweat of his brow and
votes with his party; but if he has not
the means of earning his livelihood he
can have little joys in his vote.
The poor man knows he has les sllberty
than the rich man. just as certainly as
he knows he has less money. Till a
man is independent he is not free. Inc
man who is in danger of want is not a
free man. and the country which does
not guard hin against the danger or
does not insure him the means OF lVel-
hood, is not a freee country. though It
may be the freeSt of the freer countries.
The violent unrest which we call labor
troubles is nothing more or les Sthan an
endeavor for the liberty which the work
, ing classes think they see the employing
cha possessed of. 1t seems TO pc =
question Of mere wages with them, but
ultimately it is a question OF more power.
more ease, more freedom.
| In good society we have a pollteness

pie who wish to get into society think
they will be better than those outside or

they get into polite society they find
there is an almost ideal state of affairs,
at least upon the surface.
Tn ideal of good society is equality.
You can have no pleasure in the man

pleading to be bought.
RUSSIAN LACE.
These Russian laces come in pretty bits
that require no cutting out but can be
selected as needed, in n size and in al
most any shape. True the lace is coarse
and the designs not varied, but on the
other hand there is a certain complex
pattern to them esh which makes it very
desirable as a trimming. The modistes
recommend it and are using 1t upon all
gowns, particularly tailor-made dresses
which require a finish Of lace at the yoke
or upon the hips.

DAY IN THE LIFE OF
A SUMMER GIRL
From the Time She Rises Until Mid
Night She Makes Many Changes
in Her Dresses,

Paris, June 1.--From mermaid to socl-
ETY. belle, thai is the daily transition OF
the summer girl of 1900. Softly dipping the
tips of her pretty white canvas SLIPPERS IN
the waters in the morning, she just as
merrily tiirts her pretty toes through the
mazes of the dance at night.
Such a summer was never seen in Pa
ris. Not even during the exposition OF
Eugenie's day, that wild revel which is
the favorite tireside tale of the ancient
grande danes OF Paris, was SO much run
and folly known!
Nor in those lays was there such a va
riety in gowns. The woman who wore an
evening dress at night had to conhne
herself to a house dress in the morning,
nor did she ever know the glories of a
golf, or bicycle, or outing costume. Even
her bathing was lone in great privacy
from the side of a small portable bath
house which was anchored in the surf.
In these forward days the Partisan
maiden. American fashion. sports on the
beach and displays herself and her pretty
suit to a select circle of beholders, deny
ing nothing to the ocean W~ayfarers on
the bay.
BATHING DRESSES.
Bathing dresses have been fashioned
this year largely from the mercerized
~cOttOns which look SO much like satin.
Brilliantine holds its own among bath
ing fabrics: and the various grades OF
flannel are all seen. The latest and most
popular, perhaps, is the new serge which
is called satin serge and which comes In
very light weight. 1t has a smooth face,
not glossy. yet not rough. n Is well
adapted to the water as it does not retain
dampness long.
Oriental silks are also much used, but
are lined with very thic k cloth to keep
them from clinging to the figure. The
finest. softest cotton cashmeres are used
for lining the Oriental silks; and the fab
ric thus obtained can be recommended In
every way as it is light, soft. pretty. and
by no means subject to that disagree.

ors and, as nom of them were rare or ex-
pensive, the bathing dress deserves to
rank with the most approved models of
the year. In selecting Roman blue re-
membe that is the brightest dark blue
there is, so bright that it suggests red
and never dark enough to show shades
of black as is the case with navy n
other dark blues. Khaki, on the other
as a contrast to a deep brilliant hue.
True. they make whole suits of khaki,
but these depend for their elegance upon
their stitching and the fineness of their
tailor-made finish.
Little bathing boleros are boned to act
as a support for the figure. They are cut
in all sorts of eccentric designs and are
intended to clothe the figure more thor
oughly than the blouse which is open to
many objections. the chief one being it's
! shapelessness.
There is a fad this season for short
sleeves, whether on bathing dress. after
noon gown or evening costume. The ell
bow sleeve is the rage and women with
pretty arms are to have their innings.

BY evening the girl of the season has
rambled through the mazs of a days
gowns and is putting on her dancing
dress. This is a costume which this sea
son has no claim to simplicity, though
many claims to beauty. The lovely
mousselines are closely tucked or accor-
dian plated and are worn over the finest
of Innings.
A silk mousseline of butercup shade
was laid in tiny plaits from the belt to
the hem. Around the foot the skirt
fiared into a very full train, not long but
voluminous. and even in front it was
very full. The neatest little tunic, made
entirely of a diamond of lace was
stretched over the front. like a stom-
acher, point upward, and on each side
of this diamond of lace there were pan
niers of the mousseline. Medallions Of
lace trimmed the skirt, round and round
in two rows.
The bodice had a shirt of mousselint
with tiny lace bolero over it. AROUND
the bust there was a deep band of lac
and over the arms was another strap

FROM DEATH
Son Long Mourned as Dead
Is Home Again.
Was Reported Drowned in
the Spanish War and His
Parents Believed the Ru-
NORA Happy Meeting.

Miss Elizabeth Stumpf, of Hazleton,
is visiting her sister, Mrs. P. C. Poyser,
North Washington street.
w. d. Gerlach, of Hazeton, paid
Freeland visit last evening.
During the Spanish-American war
Richard Stack, aged &c years, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Patrick Stack, of Girard-
vile, was reported drowned from a
transport off Havana harbor The re-
port was never contradcted, and the
gref-stricken parents had no reason to
doubt the accuracy of the news they
had received.
Last evening an apparent stranger
but in fact the long-lost son, entered the
Stack home unannounced. His face
was so changed and bronzed by exposure
to tropical sun that his parents did not
recognize him. He stood before them
several minutes awaiting welcome,
but, seeing that they did not appear to
know him, he exclaimed: "Father and
mother, you surely remember me-"
The sound of his voice was enough.
In a second he was in the arms of his
parents, who shed tears of joy and
thanked God for their sons safe return.
In explaining how the report of his
death was circulated, Richard says that
while on the transport Missouri clothing
and valuabes were stolen from him by
one of the crew. He could not discover
who the thief was and never regained
possession of the stolen property.
Some time afterward the thief fell
overheard and was drowned When the
body was recovered the face was unre-
cognizable, but as the body was habited
II Stacks clothing and bore some of his
valuables, it was concluded that he was
the man who was drowned.

All Night in Quicksand.

John Conden, II half demented resi-
dent of Pittston, had narrow escape
from death from suifocaton on the
banks of the river near his home
He wandered about the streets during
the heated portion of the day, and when
evening came went to the river to cool
off. Taking off shoes and stockings, he
waded into the water to his knees. He
did not find relief and started toward
the shore.
AS he was about to step on the bank
he sank suddenly to his head in bed
of quicksand. He remained in that
position all night.
Two fisherman discovered the head of
the unfortunate man, and rescued him
after half hours hard work.
