DELAWARE VALLEY IMPROVES
The World Moves Here as Well as
Elsewhere.

The World Moves Here as Well as
Elsewhere.
Hiram Hankins, the "Honest John"
of the Gazette, sail around business
man." and representative farmer Of
the Delaware Valley" is about to
build a huge boarding house, or sum
mer caavansary, on his beautiful
farm near the village Of many syno-
nyms, known to the United States
post Office department as Bevans, to
the old timers as Henfoot Corner,
and to the local fraternity as Peters
Valley. 1t will be substantially
built, with a gingerbread ald filagree
outside finish, that will make it look
like Sunday morning dream, and a
JOY forever for the tired and jaded
summer tourist. The design, we un-
deistand, is Mr.. Hankins' own and
will take the cake and all the cream
in modern boarding house architec-
ture. The residents around about
see immense possibilities in this new
venture; and dream of how Mr. Han
kins, if successful, may, in the near
future, dam the Delaware just above
this point, and, then, with the power
derived from this fine stream elec-
tricically light the great building,
drive the ventilating fans, run the
elevators, scour the silverware and
jewelry, freeze the ice cream and
shampoo the refractory and bald
headed boarders by electricity. To
all these attractions and the beautiful
surroundings, add the generous un-
failing courtesy Of Hiram, and the
bountiful table and motherly care
of Mrs. Hankins, and what more
could be desired by the city sick resi-
dent. We predict a glorious future
for the new departure into fresh
fields and pastures new, and we wish
Mr.. Hankins the proverbial benefits
that are said to fall to those who
pasture therein.

Garden Of Eden Discovered.

The scriptural Eden, whose history
is poetical and vague, has never been
definitely located on the map of the
world.
Milton's Paradise Lost, and the
same Regained, are alike mystical
and imaginary; but in almost every
country some favored spot has been
idealized as Eden.
OF these the South has one, down
on the Indian River, on the east
coast of Florida; but wise travellers
have found the real modern Para
disc "far from the emaddening crowd" +"
and yet within a three hours journ-
ey from the great empire city of
New York. 1t is located on the
eastern edge Of the pine wilderness
of the Blue Ridge Mountains, at Mil
ford, Pennsylvania, on the Delaware.
Here is the ideal summer resort of
all America. For hundreds of miles
the high mountain chain borders the
beautiful "blue Danube" of this con.
tinent, from whose towering, border.

loveliness is spread out before the

Here are natures beauties undis

THE WASHINGTON LETTER.

(From Our Rogulnr Corfespondent)
WASHINGTON, d. c.. JUNE "a, 1901.
President Mckinley is confident
that the explanation of the law under
which Secretary Gage acted in order
ing a countervailing duty placed on
Russia sugar and a duty upon Rus
sian petroleum, which Secretary Hay
has handed to the Russian Ambassa-
dor, will convince Russia that this
government was not actuated by any
feeling ofantagonism toward Russian
products, and that it will result in the
removal of retaliatory duties which
Russia has placed upon some Of our
goods, and the confidence is shared
by every member of the Cabinet.
The Russian Ambassador also ex
presses the opinion that the matter
will soon be Strengthened out. There
is no truth in statements sent out
from Washington alleging disagree
ment in the Cabinet concerning Sec
retary Cages acts. There was
nothing to disagree about. Secretary
Gage merely carried out Acts ofCon.
gress, as he was bound to do.

Representative Steele of Indiana,
who was member of the Ways and
Means Committee of the last hOuse,
and will unquestionably be member
of the same committee in the present
House, said of the alleged demands
for tariff revision at the coming
session of Congress: "There is no
pressing demand throughout the
country for a tariff revision. Ger
tainIy there is no such demands in
Indiana, where even the democrats
are satisfied with the present condi-
tiOn of affairs. When tariff revision
is necessary, which is not not appar-
ent, it will be had along republican
lines. The business people Of the
country do not want tariff agitation.
If they want anything it is rest.
They are doing first rate, and they
do not want their prosperity leopard
lied by tariff tinkering." When
asked about the Indiana sentiment
concerning Senator Fairbanks as a
Presidential candidate, Mr.. Steele
said: "Speaking as friend Of Sen
ator Fairbanks, / think the talk
about him in connection with the
Presidency is without his consent.
No one questions for moment his
fitness for the position, but to put
him the attitude Of formulating a
boom at this time, simply means
making him a target for the neXi
three years, during which all the
other candidates can fire at him.
OF the general political outlook Mr.
Steele said; ssrhe democrats certain
cannot expect TO gain ground if theii
policy is correctly outlined By Senator
Jones, Of Arkansas. He simply saiC
that whatever the republicans ds
about the Philippines, the democrats
will take the opposite side. ] do no
think the republicans have much t.
fear from that sort Of opposition"

TROLLEY CARS FOR ATHENS.
They will Run From the Parthenor
to Pireus.

Trolley cars built in the United
States and propelled by machinery
constructed in New Jersey will soon
go whizzing and changing from
Athens to the Pir@us, while conduc-
tors who don't look particularly class
ie will be growing, "Step lively
there" and "All aboardp' or "You
can't fool me; that child's more than
4p' in modern Greek.
The contract for constructing the
line has been let. The equipment
will be supplied by the General Elec-
trio company. Imported painters
will be employed to correctly letter
such signs on the cars as "Demosth-
enes avenue" "North Hadrian ST."
and "Parthenon," says the New
York World. In general way they
will resemble the cars used in Brook
lyn.
The PirRus, which is the port of
Athens, was famous once as being
the place to which heroes repaired
to gaze at the sea and sigh for more
worlds to conquer. 1t is now the
Coney Island of Athens, and it is
purposed to establish there merry go
rounds, hit the niggger's head and
you get good cigar outfit and all
the other watering place necessities.
The electric boom has struck Greece
so forcibly that electric light plants
are being manufactured here to il
Illuminate Calamata, Lyra and Patras,
the latter the most important seaport
in the kingdom and the export point
for large shipments of currants. The
electric contracts, which will foot up
about 81, 100000, will nearly all go to
the General Electric company.
