Congressional and Judicial.

Cameron, Clearfield, Centre, Elk
and Mexican counties have been
framed as the latest Congressional
district, at least it was at last reports.
1t is rather hard to say what will be
the outcome of the situation. The
Conference report filed Tuesday places
Mexican back in the Sibley district and
leaves this district Cameron, Elk Clear
field and Oentre.
There have been many reports as to
probable change in this judicial dis
trict, connecting Potter and Cameron
counties, but from the information at
hand the PRESS is inclined to believe
that the old district will remain as
heretofore-Clinton, Ca meron and Elk

Literary Prize Contest.

Question number four was correctly
answered. 1t runs like this: Franklin
was dining with party of diplomats,
when gentleman proposed that as
three nationalities were represented,
each ambassador should toast his own
country.
The English Prime Minister had the
initial opportunity, and he said proud
ly: 'Here is to Great Britain, the sun
that enlightens the world"
The French Premier had the next
chance, though trife annoyed at be-
ing obliged to content himself with a
brilliant luminary, he said placidly:
''Here is to France, the moon whose
magic rays move the tides"
A smile ran round the table as
Franklin rose, and most of the guests
indulged in secret graduation that he
had nothing but the stars to compare
America to. But with the philosophic
wisdom which distinguished poor
Richards almanack," he Numbered
forth:
"To George Washington, the Joshua
of America, who commanded the sun
and moon to stand still-and they
obeyed."

A Pleasant Gentleman.

The PRESS was favored last Friday
with call from Mr.. Hugh E. Hoffman,
press representative of John Robinson
show. We found Mr.. Hoffman very
much of gentleman and enjoyed his
acquaintance. If all of Mr. Robinson's
managers are of the same stamp as Mr..
Hoffman it is not to be wondered that
his reputation is rapidly or owing.

4 Happy Event-SiXty Years of We'd
ded Life.

On Tuesday, June 18th, Mr.. and Mrs.
James Russell, of Mason Hill, celebrat-
ed the Goth anniversary oftheir welded
life. About one hundred invited guests,
(for everybody had a cordial invita-
tom assembled at their residence early
in the day to show their respect for
the aged couple. The occasion was
happily spent in social chat and visit
ing After a splendid dinner, to which
all done justice, Rev. G.. w. Steel, of
Wesleyan Methodist church, made a
neat and timely speech, after which
all bowed in prayer and the Rev.
gentleman invoked the blessings OF
God on the venerable couple. This
was an event that very seldom happens
| that two persons travel life together
| for so years. Those in attendance from
distance were; G. McCracken and
wife, (daughter), of Straights; Mrs.
James Bennett, (daughter), Croyland;
Mr., Ed. Russell, a son, of First Fork,
: and +. B. Russell, son, of this place,
and lots of grand children. The pre-
sents were numerous, beautiful and
costly. We will mention just a few:
Newton Mix fat sheep, that was eaten
up, rump and stump; Miss Nellie
Marsh, rug, woven in many colors
with go in the centre; Mrs. McCracken,
a robe and wreath for her mother,
which when placed on the head of the
lady made her look like girl of sweet
16. Mr.. Russell, dressed in his best
suit and wearing most beautiful but
ton bouquet was as happy as lad of
long ago. All went home pleased with
the occasion and were invited to parti-
cipate in diamond wedding twenty-five
years hence. The ages of the venerable
couple are Mr.. Russell, 50; Mrs. Rus
sell, "a.
One matter we almost forgot to men
ton, and that is that Mrs. III. and j.
NJ English have not been we'll since
the feast and had the sheep been lit,
tie larger neither Miss NJ. or Miss b.
would have stood any show whatever
even if they did make a charge against

WHY MEAT IS so HIGH
IT'S NOT THE WORK OF A TRUST
All Due to the High Price of Corn
and the Increased Foreign
Demand.

The price Of meat is going steadily sky
ward in Minneapolis. Local agents or the
big Chicago packing houses admit that
there has been an unusual falling on In
the supply Of steers and other cattle. the
shortage is said to be Of such alarming
proportions as to suggest possibilities OF
a beef famine. The representatives OF the
Chicago firms deny that their houses are
in any way responsible for the rise IN
prices. They say that they are in no com
bine or trust to curtail the supply or
boost the retail price Of beef.
The shortage, they point out, is due to
the increased foreign demand on account
of the expansion of American trade, and
to the falling off in corn feeding to cattle
because Of the high price OF corn.
Said a representative of Armour & Com
pany:
1t is entirely a question Of feed. With the
farmers getting such fancy prices for corn,
YOU may be sure that mighty little stock is
receiving corn as regular ration. Corn is
a luxury now, and the stock that receives
the same old allowance OF the precious cereal
suddenly doubles its value. Steaks and cuts
that used to sell for 10 to Il cents a pound
retail are now as high as ID to 16 cents. This
condition of affairs will obtain as long as the
price Of corn advances or holds its own at
the present high figures. This, Of course,
affects only the people who are used to buy
ing the best meat Cheap-fed stock costs nc
more than it ever did, and poor people will
get their meat at the same old figure. Here
in Minneapolis the choicest steaks and cuts
are now being sold at as high as 25 cents q
pound.

of talent is now drifting about the Rialto,
unbilled, unticketed, unengaged and un-
dote.
At the Park theater, No. and 61a First
street S, many artists are up against it.
| Count them in the first part, they are:
"Kelley and Silver, the greatest dancers
Of the American stage; Sanvon and
Reading, up-to-date singers and dancers
"Clara Bonne, favorite operatic star.
And sad to relate, the gladstone notes Of

Herman" have been hushed by blue

Ed Still, turn in these unhappy times?
And who shall furnish forth the comedy

And where shall "sister teams" and

management turn for employment? And

Things are just as bad at the Standard
These are out of job at that temple:

ley and Francis Silvers, the Novelty Sis

and Nash, and the little whirlWinds
Thelma Wheeler and Irene Weston. The
Venus of Vocalists' is also shy job
in the person of Clarissa st. Clair. And
the western song bird, Marguerite Grace,
is sore on the town because she may not
tune her beautiful throat.
The young women in decollette attire
who worked the boxes" and wine rooms
are also out in the cold world and out in
the street, or will be if they don't strike
something shortly. They refuse to be
comforted.
The tragedian goes about breathing i'm
precautions deep as to the lungs. The
comedian swats himself with a newspaper
and asks, 'Iss It?'' The heroine is in
tears and the soubrette is throwing fits.
The rapid-fire comedians are in rehear-
sal this afternoon for a sketch that will
be timely when they get chance to put
it on. Here's a sample:

A Standard lady, who said she hailed
from Chicago and would not have it cher
name) get out as being connected with
such a Jim Crow place for the wor-rul-
led; said the theater was all right for

fairies who have been selling drinks in
the wine rooms had killed 1t. She has

! never saw such a scene Of wild en-
thusiasm in my life as that which greeted
Columbia when she began to outfcot her
rival tame as Thursdays performance was.
The sea was thickly dotted for miles with
all kinds of boats. from small pleasure
launches to big liners, and when Columbia
went ahead every steam whistle cut loose
into a deafening chorus. Columbia seemed
to point up better than her rival from the
start, and the members OF the yacht club
around me were continually. discoy ering lit
tie maneuvers on the part OF Captain Barr
which indicated to them that he was stead

The boats were easily distinguishable.
Shamrock II. has a yellow hull, and her
sails are of a correspondingIy golden tint.
Columbia is pure white boat, 10th hull
