THE EDITORS CHIEF JOY.

State papers generally comment en- Enthusiastically upon the noble gift of Mrs. Mary Ryle to the Public Library association of Paterson. It is mis- take to say that newspapers love to exploit the criminal and ensational leeds or men. There is not an editor living who would not rather chronicle good acts than bad ones, and whose at tention is not immediately fixed by tho shining mark of an exceptional act of eneficence.-Paterson Guardian.

Gen. Frederick Funston. who ought to be a pretty good authority on the

 New York Daily News Moral courage is the highest type Of bravery, he says. The man who bears up under humiliation or disgrace, ln- stead of committing suicide. is, in my opinion, the bravest sort Of man. Under such circumstances it requires far more courage to live than it does to die.
 One particular instance illustrates my meaning. In a little western town a lad of eighteen-a mere Doy-commit- ted forgery and was sentenced to a term in the state prison. In short time he was pardoned and came back to his home, an ex-convict. He lived it down. Today, at forty. he is a widely known and thoroughly respected citizen.

THE OBSCURE SpECIALTIES
Still Had a Large Part In Stock Mar
ket, Thursday-Average Stocks
Most Active.

New York, Feb. 2S.-The most ac-
tive stocks in Thursdays market
were among those rather better
known to the average Spectator
than those which have occupied the
greatest attention for several days.
but the obscure specialties still had
a large part in the market, particU-
iarly in the width Of their price move
ments. Some new ones were brought
forward into activity Thursday and
were pushed smartly upward, and ad
yances continued in some others re.
Gently awakened into activity. Still
others reflected the passing Of the
speculative movement and the taking
of profits, after which market support
was withdrawn and the price was al.
lowed to take it's own course. The
very large and persistent buying of
Colorado and Southern gives color to
the rumors that control of the road
is sought. The admission of Chicago
and Eastern Illinois interests to the
directory of the Evansville and Terre
Haute is accepted as confirmation of
reports recently current of a consoli-
dation. With these two received ex-
amples as a basis, rumors of many
other INSCRIPTIONS and consultations
of minor railroad systems received
ready credence. In the more i'm.
portant stocks there was a resump-
ton Of Tuesdays rise in Brooklyn
Transit, on buying attributed to in
side interest but without explanation.
Chesapeake and Ohio and Norfolk
and Western were lifted on the re-
ports Of the extraordinary demand
for bituminous COAL There was sup
port from inside sources for Missouri
Pacific, but the large liquidation con.
tinued in that stock, supposed to be
the result Of the recent death of a
large holder. Amalgamated Copper
and Tennessee Coal were active. but
irregular. but both Of these stocks
ended the Gay unchanged The mar
ket as whole continued sluggish
and neglected. The dubious condi.
ton in which the Northern Securities
company is kept by the pending liti.
cation against it and the uncertain.
ties of the money outlook are amply
sufficient to account for this state of
affairs. The consultations now going
on between those interested in the
Northern Securities company and the
fact that some Of the banks are IN,
clined to question the offering of
Northern Securities stock as collat.

Situation at Plsssburg at Midnight.
Pittsburg, Pa, Feb, 27.-At
midnight the Allegheny Ice at this
point had not moved in any great
degree, and Pittsburg and Allegheny
are still menaced with food and
great damage otherwise. The gov
eminent forecaster considers the
situation critical, but cannot fore.
tell when the Ice will move or what
1t will do. River men are on the
alert, bat still hope the Ice will go
out without causing much damage.
The disquieting feature of the
slight movement above here today
Is the fact that the gorge moved
In solid mass and should 1t con-
tinue In this way until 1t reaches
here great damage will result, as
the Fort Wayne railroad bridge at
Eleventh street will surely stop 1t
and back the water over the river
banks. Should this occur the lower
parts of both cities will be badly
flood.
Reports from up-river points to-
night are alarming.
At Kittaning, where the river
has been frozen from shore to shore,
two feet thick, a break occurred,
and the swollen current rendered
the heavy Ice aud crushed 1t Under
the main float. As yet no damage
has been done, but the danger will
remain until the whole mass has
gone out.
At midnight the food situation at
Oakment and other points above is
very serious. Boat houses have
been swept away, boats crushed,
and all descriptions of river craft
destroyed. The Ice began to move
this evening shortly after S O'Clock.
It moved In solid mass from Lo-
gan's Eddy to Oakmont, distance
of FIVE miles. 1t then stopped and
began to gorge at Blacks run, at
which place the Ice began to roll
and toss. until the gorge was at
least one hundred feet high.
The river at that point Is rising
rapidly and shows no sign of re-
ceding, but rather of an increased
rise, as the gorge above Is holding
back large volumes of water.
The handsome boat house of L.
M. Morris, at lakewood, was de-
stroyed, entailing loss of several
thousand dollars. It was caught
between the Ice and crushed like
an egg shell. A dozen other PEG
pie In the vicinity of Oakmont and
Terona lost pleasure boats.
The ferry at Verona Is In great
danger, and may be destroyed at
any minute. At Nine Mile Island,
the Ice is gorging and threatens the
small hamlet of Sylvan with dis
astrous food. Plum creek, near
Oakmont, Is rising rapidly, and Is
putting out some very heavy Ice.
At Hutton station, the Ice is gorged
to height of fifty feet above the
water.
Several RATS, boat house and
the chain ferry have been swept
away.
The steamer D. L. Watson is at
Sandy creek, hemmed In by the ice.
There Is a gorge above and below
Sandy creek. Steam has been kept
up all night In readiness for a run
out with the Ice If possible.
The coal companies of Plttsburg
took advantage of the ~ foot stage
of water In the Ohio today and
started nearly 1000. COO bushels OF
coal southwark.

Chairman of The Democratic M,
nicipal Committee.

There is talk of the citizens of
New Cumberland, w. Va, chang
Ing the name of the town. The
reason for the desired change Is
doubtless due to the fact that the
present name contains thirteen
letters. In case the name Is
changed, we suggest that of Plat.
tenburg. editor of the Courier, as
he has done more for the advance
ment and progress of that industri-
al town and county than any other
six individuals that ever stepped a
foot upon Its fertile soil. He has
conducted successfully a weekly
paper In Hancock county for nearly
fifty years.

Creamery Interests Developing

The rapidity Of American creamery
interests development is one OF the
business wonders OF the time. The
exports OF American cheese for the
year ending November 80, 1902, was
l7O,SbS boxes Of 60 lbs. each. The
previous year 274,4Ss boxes were
shipped, decrease Of l04,O8l boxes.
In the same year 1887 packages Of
butter were exported. Tho previous
year 9O,o42 packages were exported, q
decease Of over 10000 packages. The
production Of both articles Of food
we're immensely increaved in the zane
time.
The reason given for this by cream
6ymen and cheMs makers is that
prosperous times are calling for more
butter and cheese. The price On both
articles is fully two cents per pound
more than at this season last ysAr and
the price is still advancing. Thous-
ands Of farmers who have confined
their milking to enough to keep their
families supplied and taking advan-
tage Of their opportunities to make
good money on cream and milk
Creamery and cheese men look for ali
increase Of % per cent in their busi-
ness the coming year. This will
mean several million dollars to our
farmers The population of the
United States is increasing at the rate
d about o million year and there Is
littlS doubt that for many years to
come the prices on good native butter
and cheese will continue TO increase
