There is another hospital nearby; one

for the recovery of the Prince of Wales.
The queen recently gave some new beds
to the hospital and at her first subsequent

when they came in and found out what

HORSE MEAT is GOOD.

Prejudice against the use of horse
meat, for it is only a prejudice, seems to
be waning" said an old traveller yester-s
day. ST see that our consul general at
Vienna reports a large increase in the
consumption of horse flesh for food. the
total being something like 10000 horses
and fifty-eight donkeys, which, is an in
crease of 5000 over 1897.
81 have eaten horse meat and found it
pretty good, and it was in this country,
too. 1t is fact not generally known thar
some of our Indian tribes not only eat
horse flesh, but prefer it to beef. 1t has
a swedish taste, but a man soon learns
to like it. The Indian cannot understand
the white mans prejudice and refuses to
accept it as serious. AS matter of fact,
a large part of the venison which Indians
bring into the trading posts out in Ari-
IONA for sale is not deer, but burro-tliat
is to say, donkey Travellers in that
country also get a good deal of the same
kind of meat.
mot long ago I spent several weeks at
a traders store on the headwaters of the
Little Colorado, in Arizona. Beef was
hard to get, but venison we had in
plenty. One day an old InLian, whom |
had often seen in the place, brought in
the hide of a donkey and offered it for
sale. The trader bought all kinds of
pelts, those of sheep, goats, deer, noun
tain lions, etc, but he drew the line on
donkeys. g 4ss~ ~ %ssN : ~
What do you mean by offering me a
burro hide?' he said to the Indian. Get
out of here
1.-THE Indian looked dazed for a minute
and then replied, You white men are
queer. A week ago / brought you hind
quarter of that animal You bought it
and afterward told me to bring in more

if had any. That hide is all that's left
and now you get angry when offer it to
you can't understand you at ALL
That trader was knocked speechless.
For week we had been feasting on ven
'fson' and telling each other how much
finer it was than beef. As matter of
fact, it was good food. so long as our
prejudice against it's name did not come
into play. A young horse which has
never done any work and has been we'll
fed is a. good deal better to eat than an
old steer fattened for the butcher.''-New

THE judicial contest in Union county Satur-

ried Union county, receiving 1851 votes to Hon.
Samuel H. Orwig's $50 votes or clear major
ity of 1721 votes forthe present incumbent The
vitory was certainly decisive.
THE old adage that lie will travel mile
while truth is pulling on its boots has again been
doubly proven. The shoe factory outrage and
black eve to Middleburg published in Rtters
asp, was last week republished by the Selins-
grove Times and the Lewisburg Saturday Ne,cs.
There is no telling how many more papers will
publish this lie and give the town black eye as

LAST summer Pilgrim Scott Ritter, publish

He refused to subscribe one cent and never pub

He was made member of the executive conf
mittee and never attended meeting. This

exceeded the average on the eligibility clause,
has no time for anything that will benei: Mid

over forty years of age who never had an oppor-
tunity to get married. The statesman from
Peanutvile is inclined to Ike facetious The main
difficulty with his bill is that should it become
law there would be some trouble in finding a
woman who would acknowledge that she was for
ty years of age. Possibly "Uncle Jerry" never
thought Of that. He is better as Judge at q
horse race than in making laws to encourage
matrimony.

PAN-AMERlCAN EXPOSITION.

PLANS for opening day of the Pan-Ameaican
Exposition, May st, are now well advanced.
The exercises inaugurating this splendid inter-
national festival of occidental nations will befit
the importance of the event. At O'Clock in the
afternoon, in the beautiful Temple of Music, it is
proposed toIstart the machinery of the Exposition.
The specia! train CARRYING the President of the
United States and his cabinet from Washington
to the Pacific Coast will de connected by telegraph
with electrial apparatus will be connected with
the great electric generator in the Electricity
building. Direct telegraphic communication will
he made at the same moment between the execu-
tive Office of the Presidents of all of the republics
of the hemispher, and the Governor General of
Canada, and this electrial apparatus in the Music
Temple. AT o'clock Buffalo time, by arrange
ment with the cable companies leading to South
America, and with hthe telegraphic companies, and
with the Atantic::cable companies the presidents
and rulers ofall of the countries of the Western
Hemisphere will be requested to touch an electric
button in their Office which will thus start piece
of machinery of the exposition And they will
at the same time transmit message of greeting
at the opening to be read in the Music Temple.
President Mckinley from a special telegraph
ic apparatus in his car on the special train, sur
rounded by his Cabinet, will then start the great
fountain pumps and will transmit over the wires
message of greeting to the people assembled on
the occasion of The opening.
The dedicatory ceremonies Of the Exposition,
which will be very imposing, will take place
about the middle of May, possibly on the 14th,
when it is expected tina. Vice President Roose-
welt, Governor Odell, and a large body of nation
al and diplomatic officials, together with those
of the Army aud Navy, will be present and par
ticipate.
Presidents Day will be between June 9th and
18th. The date will be fixed definitely within
few days. President Mckinley and hs Cab
met will come to the Exposition from Duluth.
The committee having In charge the arrange
ments for these special exercises intend to make
them more elaborate and inspiring than any SIM
liar ones connected with an Exposition.

She was originally from Mid

of her married life in this vicinity,
and during all this time has been a

which she was buried.

won a reponse from the members of
her family, but caused all who knew
