Mt work laying out measurements for
the contemplated tenement. It was
growing late In the afternoon, and the
men would soon be going away. Over
at the other end of the library Miss
Hammond had been busy at work over
one Of the lecture programmes. She
went out as Gordon was speaking
about the tenements.
Miss Andrews calmly sat looking at
the scene from the window, and John
Gordon, seated a little back from her,
where, however, he commanded a view
OF her face ms the fading light from
the large window fell upon it, suddenly
made a resolve that in itself was not
really as sudden as It seemed. Some.
times swift action has ripened under
q slow process.

There was short silence; then her

IL he feared the loss of the impulse
that had prompted him to speak.
"You saw Miss Marsh. You know

share all these troubles to bear all

her too severe?"
There was silence. 1t was broken by
the quiet voice.
! do you still love Miss Marshi"
NO" answered John Gordon slowly.
He was seated and had put his hand
over his face.
The group of men over at the end OF
the view from the window separated
and went away. One Of the residents
came into the library and started to
light the candles which were placed in
an cid fashioned silver candlestick
which always stood in the center Of
the table. II was one of Miss An

THE PAPAC FANS.
eft to America Secured By Mrs.
DrexeI From the Vatican.


eft to America Secured By Mrs,
Drexel From the Vatican.
After years Of diplomatic effort Mrs.
Joseph Drexel, widow of the former
partner Of j. Perpont Morgan, has at
last succeeded in securing from the
pope the famous eight foot fans Of the
Vatican and has brought these trophies
in triumph to America. They will be
presented to the American people and
placed on exhibition in the museum OF
Pennsylvania university.
Visitors to the Vatican will remember
these gorgeous emblems Of imperial au-
thority. No papal procession was COM
plete without them. When the pope
was carried into the audience chamber
or took part in any of the festivities Of
the church. the fans were always IN
evidence, either carried aloft by ia
vored pair of noble glardsmen or all
lowed to rest against the papal throne.
Years ago Mrs. Drexel saw these fans
and coveted them. Almost any favor
asked by this charitable woman would
have been readily granted by the pope,
but the fans were regarded az too close
ly associated with the history of the
church to be allowed 10 leave the Vat
lean. They had been familiar features
OF Roman Catholic celebrations since
the days Of Plus ~. and werc hal
lowed by too many memories lightly to
be relinquished. even at the request Of
so good a friend of the church as Mrs.
Drexel
Mrs. Drexel was disappointed, but
not beaten. Year after year. when Wis
itIng Europe. she had audience of the
pope and renewed her plea for the
fans and at last Leo Nil. gave re
luctant consent to the splendid sym
bols being carried off by Mrs. Drcxel.
In return the Vatican was presented
with another pair Of fans. even more
gorgeous than the old ones although
lacking the historical interest Of those
secured by Mrs. Drexel.
The fans are splendid creations. The
spread is formed OF superb ostrich
plumes tipped with peacock feathers.
On the sticks, or what would be the
sticks in an ordinary fan. are the papal
arms. worked on a crimson field in
heavy gold, tho crown studded with
rubieS and emeralds. The embossed
poles that support the great fans when
carried aloft ere of crimson velvet At
the base of the fans an inscription In
Latin records the fact that the presen-
tation was made in commemOratiOn Of
Pope Plus TX. having occupied the
papal throne for n quarter of century.
The fans are at present in the cases
in which they were carefully packed
for shipment from Rome. A special
case will be prepared for their recep-
ton In the museum Of the University
of Pennsylvania, where they will be
exhibited side by side with the price
less fan made by the queen Of Italy
and presented to Mrs. Drexel.-New

NIiIIer's License Decisions.

A special from Sharon, dated Monday
said There was a number of surprises
( in Mercer county today over the de-
cision of Judge Miller on the license
question. There were - applications
| filed and only p were granted. Sharon
got one new licensed house; South
Sharon, 2; Sharpsville, 2; Greenville, l.
Sixteen were refused in South Sharon,
| II in Sharon. in Greenville, in
Sparpsville and in Wheatland. There
were three applications held over.
Political Office holders are barred, and
an important Interpretation has been
made regarding the law allowing whole
sale dealers to deliver by wagon outside
the town where they are licensed.
Saloons must be closed on Decoration
Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas.
At the session of the License Court
Just closed, the political officeholders
were first put on the carpet. They were
informed that they must either resign
from their offices or do without license.
This will be hard on several candidates
in the different towns in the county.
The idea of Judge Miller is to. get the
saloon as far away from politics as pos
sible
The wholesalers were the next to get
in and the ruling affecting them estab-
fishes precedent in the State. Judge
Miller rules that wholesalers can only
deliver goods in the town where they
are licensed, and says he believes his
construction of the law is correct. All
saloons must close at o'clock every
night. The rule to close on holidays
will be modified if a majority of the
saloonkeepers. through their attorneys,
petition for it.
Mercer county has been the scene Of
some famous battles against the liquor
traffic. Two cases became famous and
We're carried to the United States Su-
preme Court, which reversed the local
court.

POLITICAL.

Next Tuesday is election day and the
campaign is progressing very quietly in
Butler. while in Pittsburg they are hav-
ing it red hot" over the Recordership.
And after reading the arguments on
both sides an outsider is as much be
tween the devil and the deep sea" as to
how he would vote there, as the Repub-
Iicans Of the state will be if Quay and
Penrose disagree.
Clerk of Courts Graham urgently re-
quests election officers to mark the
names of the candidates elected in their
return eheets and TO leave one return
sheet in an unsealed envelope, outside
the large envelope, so it may be made
public.
At Washington. last week, Senator
Penrose said that he thought that the
Republican State convention would be
held in June, and that of the two offices
for which nominations are to be made
the Auditor Generalship and State
Treasurership-one would 90 to the
eastern part of the State and the other
to the western. Thus far, he said, he
knew of no one having been slated for
either place.
There are already several aspirants
for these positions, Senator W. T.
Snyder. of Chester, who was turned
down last Spring for Lieutenant Cover
nor, and Ex-senator w. NJ Meredith,
Of Armstrong, being both after the
Auditor Generalship. E. B. Harden
bergh, Of Wayne, the present Auditor
General, woul1 like to succeed Frank
M. Harris, of Clearfeld, as State Treas
urer, while Mr.. Harris is credited with
a like ambition to change places with
Mr.. Hardenbergh. Their respective
terms Of office both expire in May, 1904,
and neither is eligible 10 reelection.
There is feeling, however, that to
elect anyState officer to another position
on the Hill at Harrisburg would be
an innovation which might arouse op-
position amoung the workers in the
party, and especially that to thus trans
fer the offices of A-ditoI General and
State Treasurer, which act as check
upon each other in financial affairs,
would be sort OF evasion of the con-
stitutional provision rendering these Of
ficials ineligible to reelection. Ex-
Representatives Levi Morrison, of
Mercer county, and J. Werner Clark, of
Washington county, have been mention
ed as candidates for the State Treas
urership. -Pittsburg Times.
