Literary Prize Contest.

Answer to question number Isl:
ga good book is the precious life-blood
of master spirit, embalmed and treas
ured up on purpose to life beyond
life. Milton.
This closes the prize contest. Miss
Byrde Taggart, of Emporium, has won
the prize offered by the Emmanuel
Free Reading-room. She has sent in
an answer to every question but one,
and a larger per cent. of her answers
has been correct than those of any one
else.
Miss Margaret Farley Of Driftwood,
also, deserves credit for having made
several excellent answers. IF the con-
test has stimulated research, and in
duced our youth to Gull from the boun-
tiful sheaves of literature, this primal
contest will not have been in vain: for
the province of genius is to uplift, and
life without literature is dead.

Pan-American Attractions.

Tremendous interest has been arous-
ed over the Carnival Week at the Pan
American Exposition, beginning Sep.
tember 30th and lasting to October 9TH
Magnificent preparations for the Mardi
Gras pageantry with the gorgeous floats
which were used in the New Orleans
Rex parade have been made. One fea-
ture beside the daily pageant will be a
Baby Coach parade, already a pro-
nounced success if the number of en-
tries is criterion.
PAINS Fireworks will be one of the
great features of Carnival Week at the
Pan-American Exposition, September
3Oth to October 5th Never in the
history of the world have such gor-
geous pyrotechnics been seen.
Fifty thousand dollars have been
spent on the magnificent chariots, floats
and features for the Carnival Week al
the Pan American Exposition Septem-
ber 30th to October 5th.
The Pan-American Exposition is
proving a great success. While the
enterprise suffered for few days from
the National tragedy, the crowds that
have put off going until the fall are
rushing to Buffalo in great numbers
now.
New York State Day at the Pan
American Exposition was postponed
from September 18th to October 9Th
Brooklyn Day comes October sth and
these two days will undoubtedly be
banner ones at the Exposition.
More than 5000, 900 people have visit
ed the Pan-American Exposition. AS
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson said
on September IL, after visit, mo one
can afford to keep away"
Railroad Day at the Pan-American
Exposition was to have been on Sep
tember 14th, but owing to the death
of President Mckinley it was post
poned to September 28th. Every fea-
ture announced for that day will be
given on September 2Sth. One hund-
red and fifty thousand people are ex-
pected then. The Human Bomb, the
most exciting aerial exploit of this
century of marvels, will be one of the
chief features, while the marriage of
several couples in the den of lions will
be the sight of lifetime.

Our Nominees,

Since the nomination of the Repub-
lican county ticket our readers, no
doubt, have not felt inclined to read
much politics, their minds and hearts
having been filled with griet over the
death of our lamented President.
However, a duty must be performed
and good and true men must be ele-
waited to the responsible positions. In
the future more care should, and GER
tainly will be, given to the class of men
elevated to responsible positions in
this country.
In Cameron county we present for
the suffrage of the people for the high
office of Associate Judge, one of the
most important in the county and one
requiring gentleman of ripe exper-
ience, sound Judgment and a safe man
under any emergency, Hon. GEORGE
A. WALKER, of Emporium. Mr.. Walk
er has been closely identified with the
material interests of Cameron county
for many years and will make wise,
safe and conscientious official. The
office of Associate Judge is of more re-
sponsibility than many people imagine
and man should be elected to ill the
position who knows the needs of the
county; a man VINO will watch the in
terests of the county. Such a man is
Geo. A. Walker. See that you elect
him.
For County Treasurer the Republi-
cans have nominated WALTER YoTH-
ERs, of Driftwood, a gentleman who
has resided in this county for eleven
years, having been born in the neigh
boring township of Karthaus, Clear
field county, of good German parentage.
During the years he has resided in this
county he has been employed as book
keeper at Driftwoood tannery, also en-
gagged in the mercantile business, be-
ing member of the firm of Kreider &
Yothers. Our candidate is popular, of
good business ability and in every way
qualified for the duties of the Office.
His great popularity at home attests to
his worthiness for tho position.

Democratic Convention.

The Democrats of Cameron county
met at Court House last Friday and
placed the following gentlemen in
nomination: Associate Judge, A. G.
Goodwin, Shippen; County Treasurer,
Charles w. Shaffer The nominations
are very ereditabe and now the
hand shaking will commence and the
campaign liar and leg-puller will be
much in evidence. The ticket is a
good one but not quite rs good as the
Republican nominees. Mr.. Goodwin
served two terms as county commits
sioner Mr.. Shaffer was the nominee
of his party three yerrs ago and made
hot and close fight. Now, let the
band play.

head reflects the sublime character,
christian courage, noble manhood and
lofty craftsmanship for which William
Mckinley was noted.
To say that he was faultless. would
be ascribing to him divine attributes.
TO say that we endorsed all his politi-
cal convictions and teachings would
brand us as hypocrites. To say that
William Mckinley did not give us an
ideal administration, would convict
rs either OF fasehood or ignorance.
lie who assumes the reign of govern
ment under Divine guidance is certain
TO fulfill the expectations of his fellow
citizens and to lead the nation to
greatness and grandeur, looking only
to the prosperity, welfare and happi-
ness of it's people. The ruler thus in
spired not alone gives security and
stability to his own government but
his influences extend to foreign lands
spreading civilization, Christianity,
humanity, freedom and happiness
over the whole world, leading all ma
tions to nobler deeds and higher asper-
atoms.
Can we measure the influence of such
character by the span of life? Will
the world forget William Mckinley in
three score years and ten? If there
We're no great events in his public life
to lmmortalize his memory, his private
life, his charity for the poor and OPP
pressed, his sympathies for humanity,
his devotion and solicitude for his
feeble and disabled wife, his great
faith in God and firm Christian char
acter, all exposed to view by the pub.

hearts of generations unborn, and the
spirit that has made the world great
and grand would emulate and empha-
size the life that taught us that 1eat
responsibilities are best conserved by
strong adherence to private virtue and
noble Christian character.
To-day, without regard to party or
sect, creed or color, the mighty army
of American manhood and woman
hood marches with solemn mien and
tread, in silent prayer and inspired
music, chanting the immortal poem of
Bishop Newman, "Lead Kindly Light
Amid the Encircling Gloom" and sing
ing the last prayer of William McKin-
ley, Nearer, My God, to Thee, Nearer
to Thee"
Farewell, farewell.
rev. rather DoWney, OF st.
Mark S Catholic Church, closed the
addresses with an eloquent tribute
to the departed and captured the
audience with a beautiful tribute.
The Rev. gentleman, like Rev.
Metzler, spoke without notes,
therefore we are unable to repro
duce the same, greatly as we re-
gret the fact.
The entire audience Joined in
singing "America,'' when, after
prayer by Rev. ]. NJ. Robertson,
of Emmanuel Church, the meeting
adjourned. Our citizens feel that
the Memorial Services we're very
appropriately conducted and will
bear comparison with those in
in much larger towns.
We are pleased to note that
similar services were conducted in
all the towns in the county and
equally well attended and eloquent
addresses delivered.

Sinnamahoning Liars Club. Reviving

The Sinnamahoning Liars Club is
making desperate effort to reorgan-
ize, but this far have failed owing to
the fact that so many young men ap-
ply for membership. One young man
wants to get married and only requires
one woman of good moral character,
who can stand at the wash tub six days
in the week, cut her own wood, make
the fire in the morning and assist in
making the garden in the spring. Any
lady under % years and not weighing
more than $50 pounds, who thinks she
mayfill the bill, should apply to Harry
Ward.

Apology.

During the excitement incident to
the death of President Mckinley, re-
quiring an extra amount of work in
the preparation of last weeks PRESS,
we regret exceedingly the obituary
notice on Hon. Samuel Smith, of
Sterling Run, was accidently omitted
The Judge had been an invalid for
several years and no doubt a great
sufferer.
Judge Smith had resided in this
county since 1924. having moved here
from Lock Haven with his parents
when he was an infant; he was closely
identified with the early history of this
section. In politics he was democrat
of the Bourbon stripe and held many
offices of honor and trust, the most i'm
portant being Associate Judge for five
years from 1870 to 1875, and postmaster
under President Cleveland.
He is survived by his wife and four
children: John E., Melvin, Mary and
B. E.
The funeral took place at Messiah
church, Sterling Run, Sept. 10th, and
was very large attended. The services
were conducted by Rev. Samuel Eber-
sole, the pastor, assisted by the Rev.
Faus, of Sinnamahoning, ME-, charge.
A large number of Emporium lodge,
No. 382, F. & A. NJ, drove from En-
porium to Sterling Run and conducted

up the repast with pie of the most

cleared his plate and then said, with

When leave Of absence was granted
me after my first year at the military
post of Allahabad, l did not go up to
the hills with others seeking recrea-
ton nor yet into the jungles seeking
big game. In cautious way, so as
not to expose myself to ridicule, l had
made inquiries and ascertained that
Rajpoor Gyah. well known in con-

miles away in a hut by himself and
was willing TO take me as 4 pupil.
Without word to anybody but my
native servant l set out one morning
and rode TO the hut and received a
dignified welcome. l must tell you
that Rajpoor Gyah was n most Won
derful magician, a great healer of the
sick and aling, and that on several oc-
casions he had apparently died, been
buried for three days and then been
resurrected and brought back TO life.
He was not an old man, but one of
