An In tolerabIe Nuisance.

Our citizens are greatly annoyed,
and have been for some time, by a
worthless horde of dogs running at
large, destroying gardens, running
lawns, and breaking down shrubbery,
plants, etc. to say nothing of the in
cessant bowling and fighting all night
long. 1t has become on intolerable
nuisance and should be- abated. We
hear complaints from all quarters and
it Is shame that it has gone unnoticed
thus far. What earthly use is a dog in
town, that runs at large all night. The
Assessors thould be more careful and
assess all dogs and every citizen should
manifest sufficient interest In the mat
ter to give the Assessor the names OF
persons who harbor dogs. There
would be less worthless pups In town
or more money In the Borough treas

ChiIdrens' Day at the First Methodist
Episcopal Church.

The program as published In the
PRESS was faithfully carried out, re-
flecting credit not only on those taking
part, but on the committee by whom
the children were trained.
This committee consisted of Mrs.
George Metzger, Jr., Mrs. II. 8. Lloyd
Mrs. G. w. Shaffer and Misses Maud
Thomas and Nellie Lingle, and to the
untiring efforts of these ladies is largely
due the splendid success achieved.
An exercise, in which the stated SER
vices of the church were portrayed by
the children was a pleasing feature.
The offering drill was delightfully."-
done. The "Motion Song' showed
skillful training. The several recita-
tons were we'll rendered, while the
solos were sung with that sweetness
and simplicity of which the children
alone are capable.
The violin solo was played in good
time and with pleasing effect, while
the orchestra sustained its reputation
for the excellence of its readerings.
A class of twelve boys and girls was
advanced from the primary to the in
termediate department and was award
ed diplomas of merit.
The primary class, numbering more
shan one hundred, occupied seats on
the platform, their happy faces, with
the sweet flowers, forming a picture of
loveliness not soon forgotten.
The decorations in the hands of Mrs.
F. P. Strayer and her helpers were in
deed handsome. The audience was of
immense size-all available seats oc-
cupied and many standing. The col
lection for Christian education was
$4,000.

Praise for Our Novelist.

THE RoMEIKE CLIPPING BUREAU HAVE
WRITTEN TO MRS. NEWTON: 1.-THE
VEIL OF soLANA' ATTRACTS A GOOD
DEAL OF ATTENTION ALL OVER THE
UNITED STATES AND EVEN ABROAD.
Many of the notices forwarded are
highly gratifying. One runs as fol-
lows:
Emma Mersereau Newton has writ
ten splendid book of Southern Cali.
fornia, and called it "Ihe Veil of So
lana" The plot hinges upon sacred
veil into which we're woven innumer
able jewels, which had been vowed to
the Madonna as surety of safe passage
over the sea. This was before the days
of steam as motive power, and the
jewels were an offering to propltiate
the spirit supposed to control the ele
| ments.
The quest for this long lost veil takes
poor newspaper woman to Southern
California. And the many thrillingex
periences of the quest even to the ex.
citing episode in an old palace, which
led to the accusation of murder, are al
told in such an interesting manner that
one feels sure that the author is deal
ing with scenes that are most familiar
| But the book has other merits thar
that given by exciting events. 1t con
tains description of a camping party
which spends month iu the California
woods. Here the author shows her
ability to delineate character correctly
and the stories furnished each evening
by the members of the party are, som,
of them, as beautiful and as worthy of {
place in literature, as is that most
beautiful of all all nature story by

OUAY's PORTFOLIO.
Rumor at Philadelphia that the
Pennsylvania Senator WI
Succeed John Hay.
AS THE SECRETARY OF STATE

PHILADELPHIA, PA, June 20.-1t il
| rumored here that Secretary of State
John Hay, will retire from President
| Roosevelt's Cabinet at the close OF the
present Presidential term. 1t is also
rumored that Mr.. Roosevelt may tender
the portfolio of State to Senator Nat
thew Stanley Quay.
No one doubts that President Roose-
velt will succeed himself, and there are
apparently substantial reasons for the
prediction that John Hay is wearied
ofthe cares of state. Senator Quay will
not be candidate to succeed himself
in the United States Senate. He would
not even if pressed by Mr.. Roosevelt,
assume charge of the next Presidential
campaign as national chairman.
Senator Quay may not encourage the
use of his name as Cabinet possibility
in fact, those in touch with the Sena-
tors affairs say that he would not ac-
cept Cabinet honors except those of
the premier. Such a distinction he
would not decline, they say. He would
regard it as dignifed and fitting finale
to career of political prominence.
At the time of Harrison's election 1t
was believed that Senator Quay would
be rendered place to the cabinet, pos
sibly such tender was made; if 80, it
was declined. President Roosevelt
owes much to Senator Quay. 1t was
the Pennsylvania and his friends who
forced his Vice Presidential nomina-
ton. Pennsylvania took the initiative
at the last national convention and her
state conventions since have kept up
the good work. Quay and Penrose
have at all times supported the admin
istration's policy. The President ap-
preciates their kindly and helpful as
sistance, and has recognized only their
friends 80 far as Pennsylvania patron
age is coucerned

State Board of Health.

There has been disposition in some
localities, in this section, to dispute with
the State Board of Health, that we
deem it proper to publish the letter ad-
dressed to the Hon. Burgess of Remove,
where smallpox has been raging for
some time:
DEAR SIR:-Yours notifying me that
you are ready to assist the state board
your utmost ability to check the
spread of smallpox in your town and
vicinity, and enclosing newspaper clip
pings and the proclamation of the board
OF health, is received. | have great
pleasure in accepting your assurance.
There has been great deal of diff
Guilty all over the state because the ply
slcians, most of whom have never
seen case of smallpox, fail to recog-
nize it when it comes into their locality.
The state board of health has for three
years been endesvoring to educate
them. We have sent experts from
from Philadelphia and Pittsburg over
and over again the diagnosis in doubt
full cases. In every instance the ex.
perts have decided that the case is true
smallpox, although of a comparatively
mllu Wy p0.
With regard to DR.. Bait, would say
that he has had long experience in
the care and diagnosis of smallpox, as
an inspector of the board of health of
the city of Philadelphia, and is for this
reason that l have sent him into your
part OF the state. 1t would be worse
than folly for you to incur the ex-
pense OF S100 for me to send another ex-
pert from Philadelphia, when you have
one there already. Every step that DIR.
Bait has taken has the entire endorse
ment of the state board of health.
The Physicians of Remove who refuse
to accept diagnosis are making fools of
themselves, and the sooner they come
to their senses the better it will be fer
them and for Remove.
Please understand, that the quaran-
tine established by DIR. Bait is simply
suspended, not removed, and that if
Remove continues to send out suspect
ed cases in the neighboring districts
as has been reported, we shall establish
sanitary Gordon around the entire
towi, allowing no individual to go in
or out.
Your are at liberty to give this COM
munication to the public press if you
deem it desirable.
Very truly yours,
BENJAMIN LEE,
Sec'y. State Board of Heath.

LYNCHING HORROR.
Negro Dragged From Prison by
Mob of Thousands, and
Burned at the Stake. ~
GUARDS ovERPowERED,

WILMINGTON, Del, June 23.-All is
quiet in this community to-day fol-
lowing the lynching of George White,
Helen Bishops confessed slayer, at an
early hour to-day. OF the mob of
nearly 5000 that overpowered the
authorities, stormed the Newcastle
county workhouse and dragged from
a cell the trembling wretch and burn
ed him to the stake, the identity of
only one is publicity known. That per-
son is little Peter Smith, IL years old,
who fell when the workhouse guards
fired volley into the ranks of the at
tackers. The lad was struck by bull
let which entered his back and is
thought to have penetrated his kid
neys. At the Homeopathic hospital,
where theiniured boy was Immediately
taken, the physicians stated to-day
that he is in a serious condition.
After the mob had completed it's aw-
full work of vengeance the body OF the
negro ravisher and murderer was left
chained to the stake with the fire burn
ing all around it, and the members of
the lynching party went home. A
rain which began falling later extin-
guished the fire and at daylight the
charred body still hung limp in plain
sight of passers- by.
Public sentiment here, SO far as ex-
pressed, appears to appove the lynch
ing of White.

THE CHAMPION
MIXED PAINT

Sold by l.. TAGGART has ne
superior.
Fourteen years ago I painted my
house with these paints and am now,
or the first time since, repainting it.
II. L. Smith, the painter, says he never
knew of house in better condition
for painting after having stood SO long.
A gentleman, whose name l will not
mention, living in our town, painted
his house thirteen years ago, with
these paints and he has engaged some
paints to repaint, saying that he would
have no other.
DIR. Heilman will also testify as to
the merits of these paints. County Jail
painted four years ago. John Lind's
two houses painted two years ago and
many others, all speak for the virtue
and staying qualities of these paints,
and is better evidence than any mans
word. Look at them; then buy the
Champion paints and paint your house
and be happy.
Also paper your house vita the ele-
CANT wall paper at Taggart's and be
doubly happy.

FATAL ACCIDENT.
An Engine and Train Crashes Down Mountain Cameron Lumber
Companys 0peratiOns-Two Men Killed and Many Injured

Great excitement was caused at
Cameron yesterday morning about
eight o'clock, when word was re-
ceived at the Office of the Cameron
Lumber Company that their log
train had "run away" on the
switchback, killing engineer Bert
Georgia, aged 81 years, of Sweden
Valley, and Ira Peabody, scaler,
aged 80 years, of Ceres, also
injuring eight Italians, dumping
the engine down the mountain and
smashing eight or ten cars. The
telephone was promptly worked
and Drs. DeLoug and Smith called
from Emporium, who rendered all
the assistance in their power.
The remains of engineer Geor-
gia, who leaves a wife and one
child, and scaler Peabody, also a
man OF family, were taken through
Emporium this morning to their
homes.
Mr.. Il. Y. Dunlevie, general
manager for the Company, was in
town yesterday afternoon pro-
curing additional medicine aud ap-
plianees called for in his camp,
which has been turned into hos

pital for the care of the injured
men.
The cause of the accident Mr..
Dunlevie informs the PRESS is hard
to account for. The stemwinder
engine was pushing some cars u p
the grade when the engine COM
menced to slide backwards down
grade, the engineer being unable
to check it. Engineer Georgia and
sealer Peabody, jumped, landing
on the upper side OF the engine
and being unable to catch a foot
ing, slid back under the piling
cars. Fireman Chas. Peabody, of
Emporium, jumped on the lower
side, escaping injury. Many of our
citizens get scaler Peabody con-
founded with the family residing
here. Deceased is a relative but
did not reside at this place.
Messrs. Dunlevie are doing all in
their power to assist the injured
and care for the unfortunate dead.
One of G. Il. Howard Company 4
engines will be taken TO Cameron
to assist the Cameron Lumber Co. A.,
until they can get their engine
