circumstances, to the extent of less

our prosperity Is contingent upon the

that is to prevent the Democrats get

out expecting too much of a museum
or attracting too much Importance to
its educational value, yet we think
that for a city which depends largely
for It's Industrial prosperity upon its
mineralogical resources to be without
more or less pretentious collection of
the ores and minerals and the rocks
which form the basis of the geological
contour of its environs is inexcusable.
or course the state geological survey
has thoroughly explored the Lacka-
wanna as well as the other valleys of
Northeastern Pennsylvania, and the re-
suit of its Investigations are easily ac-
cessible. But that is not all that Is
needed in our age in which so much
depends on the practical application
of scientific discoveries in the progress
of industry. First and foremost, every
one should know and more or less def
inltely and accurately apprehend the
constitution of the crust of the earth
upon which he threads and which banks
his fortunes and those OF his remotest
posterity. IT is not difficult to do that
with such aid as IA small museum af-
fords. Every school boy and girl should
be taught the rudiments of geology. Not
only IL it one of the most interesting
of all scientific studies but 1T is the
most easily assimilated. There is not
a pebble on the highway which has
not a history of transcendent interest

The assignment of General Goblin to
command the brigade having head
quarters in this county will be well
coined cordially. lie is a thorough
soldier, of ripe experience, sound judg-
ment and personal familiarity with
local conditions. His command is an
assurance that the excellent discipline
maintained by the Thirteenth regiment
under Colonel Watres will prevail
throughout the brigade and that what
the soldiers are commanded to do VIII
be done as ordered. 1t is also guaran-
tee that no command will be given
which should not be given. The con-

General Booth.
"HE ARRIVAL of General
Booth on tour of inspection
which will cover in travel

"\HE ARRIVAL of General
Booth on "A tour of inspection
which will cover in travel
ing thirty thousand miles
and include most Of the principal cities
of the country Is sufficient testimony
to the magnificent physical vitality of
the founder and chief of the Salvation
Army. General Booth Is an old man
with the suppleness of youth in his
methods and the juvenilty of of an
apostle in his heart. 1t is a sure sign
of a shallow mind to suppose that the
influence of this extraordinary man is
derived from pontifcal absoluteness,
a worldly discipline, an autocratic sur
veilance which permits no goadjutor
within the sphere of his personal ON
impotence. General Booth is not the
founder of church or a sect. The
Salvation Army is not II theological ag-
gregaton. 1t has no distinctive theo-
logy: no liturgical formularies; no
specific canons Of organization or dis
cipline. 1t calls itself an army, but 1t
is not that, nor has it in it's methods
mechanism.
The policy of the Salvation Army is
a spirit of solidarity in the performance
of most beneficial social function
among the lowest and most depraved
of mankind. as we'll as extending the
hand of brotherhood to those whose
only irretrievable fault is their casual
preaching. the congregational prayer
and service meeting and their barbaric
musical accomplishments would not
have developed the Salvation Army to
its present dimensions and scattered its
missionaries all over the globe did it
depend mainly or even largely upon
these ordinary accessories and funda-
mentals of religious society The
strength. the influence, the beneficence
Of the Salvation Army lies in its ma
terial helpfulness to the submerged
classes, to use General Booths own
language.
Will the Salvation Army permanent
ly survive the general? 1t is hard to
tell. There is work enough in the world
for it to do on the lines upon which it
has developed. In the division which
has arisen between the aged general
and his family American sympathy has
largely gone with the secessonists: but
1t does not blind us to the great merit
of the generals work nor to the fair
claim which he may lay to the respect
and we'll wishes Of humane people
everywhere. Without entering into a
discussion of the differences in opinion
and method which in late years de-
tached from the generals side those of
his own kitr and kin who in the early
days of the army movement did so
much to fight its battles and carry it
through the dangers of infancy, we
cannot overlook that General Booth is
q notable, albeit pathetic fiure on
| the stage of the worlds great achieve
ments. whose visit to this country, in
| all probability the last that he will ever
make, is worthy of the interest which
| it is exciting.

INTENSIVE FARMING.
The Farmer Who Makes the Best
Use Of All His Opportunities ia
the One Who VIII Succeed.

Results, that's what counts" was
the inelegant but forceful expression
OF one of our great men in comment
ing on his party's work in congress.
Ii the remark he applied to farming
It's significance and truthfulness lose
no force; rather, is peculiarly appro-
! pirate. There are theories and tbeo-
ries, and endless ways of doing things
especially in farming and stock-rais-
ing, and no one method can be select
ed and proven superior under all cir
cumStances to any other. There can
be but one test, and that is results"
In farming, the man who does the
most with the available means is
righttuIIy accounted most successful.
After all, success is a relative term.
In which the positive and superlatfve
degrees are widely separated. 1t would
be strange situation, indeed if all
farmers were equally successful in
their calling As well expect equal
success among business men. Neigh-
bors on adjoining farms who are CON
fronted by the very same conditions
of soil, climate and moisture are very
seldom equally successful Eliminat-
ing the element of luck, there is no
reason why these neighbors should
not be equally successful if the same
methods be followed. Probably no
case cen be furnished where the true
cause for variation in results can not
be reduced to the question of method
alone. There is probably no farming
community in the country that is
without its farmer who appears to
get along somewhat more easily than
ms nelghbors. His crops not only
appear to grow more luxuriantIv
than those of his neighbors. but they
actually do. Similar conditions are
found in all the departments of his
farm 1t appears as if nature were
a willing save to obey the commands
of this fortunate man, whose ipstruc-
TONS never prove amiss, and whose
plans never fail. The results of his
methods are visible, and by carefully |
observing them they may be initiated
TO the advantage of those who desire
better results from their farming.
Let the reader take any one in his
own community who is successful |
above the average, and study his
methods, and certainly it will become |
apparent that his success is the off. |

BABY POUNDED A PAN. -
Noise So Produced Attracted Black snake. and Little One Had NaI-
 row Escape.

Mrs. Estella Penny, who lives a half a mile below Florence, Ky, while busy with her Saturdays baking, placed her baby in a high chair under tree. She gave the little one tin pan to pound upon, and it was having a, fine time pounding and watching people going to the county fair.
 Suddenly Mrs. Penny paused in her work and wondered why baby had quit pounding. She ran to the door and the sight that met her eyes nearly caused her to collapse.
 There, coiled about the chair, with it's fangs close to baby's face, was g huge blacksnake.
 Mrs. Penny screamed, and as luck would have it Frank Locmis was pass ing. He heard her. She pointed to the baby. He took in the situation and soon had rescued the tot and killed the snake, which measured seven and one-half feet.
 It is supposed that the snake was attracted by baby's s'moosic'' and was in the act of charming the infant when the mother discovered it.

the ambassador proceeded directly to the temporary White House, with the full staff of the embassy in their diplo- matte uniforms. Secretary Hay, meet ing him at this point, presented him to President Roosevelt in the parlor, on the second floor of the house. The pres entation was made in the usual form, with the important exception that the president, though progressing rapidly toward recovery, needed his physi- clans warning and remained seated, not undertaking to stand on his wound ed leg.
 The ceremony was brief, consisting in the presentation of the new embas- sador by Secretary Hay, delivery by the ambassador of his credentials, a felicitous speech by the ambassador expressive of the pleasure it gave him to return to Washington and an appro- priate response from the president. That was all of the ceremony, and when 1t was over Sir Michael, who is a long time friend of the president, their acquaintance dating back more than ten years, accepted MT.
