THE STATE IN BRIEF.

Phillip M. Ermeptrout, aged 68
secretary of fire insurance company
of Reading, one of the most extensive
real estate dealers Of that city, and
prominent in the Royal Arcanum OF
the state, died on Monday.
In an opinion handed down on
Monday IN the wage case of Ansley
against the Dunmore Lumber Co.,
Judge Edwards of Scranton, reversed
the proceedings before the alderman
because he permitted the defendant
to plead by telephone. There is
nothing in the law, the judge says, to
warrant a party appearing at a trial
by telephone.
In speaking of the "Church OF
the Future" in his sermon to a large
congregation in the Pilgrims Congre-
gational church at Pottsville on Sun
day Rev. George w. Brownback said
that the sermons must be made pun
gent and sparkling like newspapers.
"P.ous platitudes must go out of
the window" he continued. "The
clergy will have to eat ginger and
wake up earlier in the morning. The
church today tails to supply cardinal
wants such as financial aid after Ill
ness, burial expenses, life insurance,
etc."
Mrs. George Wallace, who lost
her memory five months ago and dis
appeared, was on Monday reunited
with her children at Sayre, Pa, where
they have been with relatives since
their home was broken up in Wilkes
Barre.
Mrs. Wallace, who is a wealthy
widow of Wilkes Barre, disappeared
November 81. On Thanksgiving
Day she appealed to Mrs. John Stern
of 629 Sumner street, Newark, N. J.,
for shelter. Then she became Mrs.
Stern's servant.
No recollection of her past life, her
home or her children came to her,
she says. until about ten days ago.
Suddenly she realized the fact that
she had been living in strange world
for five months.
Mrs. Wallace does not remember
why she went to Newark, what oc-
Cured there, or where she was be.
tween November I'll and Thanks
giving day.
She attributes hei loss of memory
to ill health and worry over the set
tlement of her husbands estate.

State Treasurer Refuses to pay the In
creased Salaries to Judges

An act Of the recent Legislature
increases the salaries of judges all
over the state. In districts like
Columbia and Montour it is raised
from S., 900 to $500 The Gov
ernor has signed the bill, and it
has thus become law. The State
Treasurer, however, refuses to pay
the increased salaries because he
believes the act is unconstitutional,
and says he will not pay until the
Attorney General directs him to do
so.
The clause of the constitution
which he thinks is violated by the
act is Section I3 of Article 3, which
reads as follows: mo law shall
extend the term of any public
officer, or increase or diminish his
salary or emoluments, after his
election or appointment"
That seems to be as plain as
words can make it, and under that
very section there was time when
it was held to mean just what it
says. When some years ago an
increase of the salaries of the ju-
dietary was made by law, the
Judges then on the bench did not
draw the increase until they had
been reelected, while the new
Judges elected just after the pas
sage of the law drew the increased
salary. We are not complaining of
the present increase. Judges
should be well paid, and this in
crease is deserved though some
what tardy. Through the penur-
ious treatment of the Judiciary by
the legislature, many good Judge
has spent the best years of his life
on the bench, and when age or in
trinity compelled him to retire, he
mas left the bench with scarcely a
competency to support him in his
declining years. We hope the
present law is constitutional, but if
there is any reason why the plain
mandate of the constitution does
not apply to this case, we have no
heard it.

AN ENGAGEMENT EXTRAORDINARY

Our show lovers will be delighted
to know that an effort is on foot to
arrange for the appearance in Blooms,
burg on May aoth, of Dumont's Minis
trels, and give one Of their inimitable
performances which delight Philadel.
phians throughout the fall and winter
season. AS rule Dumont's Minis
trels never travel or leave their cozy
Opera House, but as their local
friend, finally induced them to give
performance in each city, other re-
quests quickly followed until the week
was taken up by admirers.
1t is the purpose to have the show
as an Elk benefit and if the Lodge de-
cides in favor of the proposition as it
in all probability will when it meets
tonight, the entire company will be
here, including Frank Dumont, Hugh
ey Dougherty, Vic Richards, Charles
Turner, ALI F. Gibson, John E. Muir
ply, James McCool, J. M. Kane,
Joseph F. Hortiz, J. M. Woods, Ed
win Goldrick, ]. E. Dempsey, Joseph
Perry, R. P. L.illey, J. A. Armstrong
and full chorus of solo musicians,
and the finest singers ever heard in
minstrelsy. Added to this is Jordan
and White, a pair of eccentric dan
GERS who have delighted the patrons
of Dumont's throughout the season.
William ]. Mills, the character change
artist, will be seen IN his mysterious
transformations in full view of the
audience, changing entire costume
from male to female and vice versa,
even changing shoes and hosiery.
This will positively be the best Minis
trel performance ever given in town
and should be greeted by an over
flowing audience.

Forest fires have been raging on
the surrounding hills and mountains
during the past week and
much valuable timber has been
destroyed. On Thursday night last
a stiff south western breeze carried
the smoke from the Catawissa
mountain to Bloomsbury until it
became so thick that many people
not knowing from whence it came
were greatly alarmed. Groups of
people gathered on Normal hill and
at the head Of Centre Street and
watched the progress Of the ire.

CHRISTIAN SOIbNOB OHURUH RE-
FUSED A CHARTER.

The state Supreme Court or
Monday sustained the ruling of the
late Judge Arnold of Philadelphia
in refusing to grant charter to a
Christian Science church. The
opinion is in part as follows:
THE appellants are members OF
all unincorporated society and de-
sire to be incorporated as church
under the laws of the state OF Penn
sylvania. Their application as
presented to the Court below sets
forth that the purposes for which
the said corporation is to be formed
are to establish and maintain a
place for the support OF public wor-
ship, and to preach the Gospel ac-
cording to the doctrines of Christ
Jesus as found in the Bible and the
Christian Science text books, Sci
ence and Health with key to the
Scriptures, by Mary Baker G.
Eddy.
The application was referred to
the Hou. Dinner Beeber as master,
who reported that an examination
of Mrs. Eddy's book showed that
the church which it was proposed
to organize, was not merely to in
culcate creed, or to establish
form of worship, but was also in
tended for treatment and cure of
disease through the healers, which
it is to train and constitute. That
the method to be pursued by these
healers in curing the sick, is simply
and solely by inaudible prayer,
whether in the presence of the sick
or at a distance. being immaterial.
"That to qualify for the practice
of healing disease according to this
method nothing was necessary ex-
cept the study of the system taught
in Mrs. Eddy's book; no knowledge
of anatomy, physiology, pathology
or hygiene being required. The
fundamental principle of the teach
ing of Mrs. Eddy being that what
is termed disease, had no real ex-
istence. That Sickness, sin and
death are unknown to truth, and
should not be recognized by man
as reality
According to the testimony she
teaches that inflammation, tubercu-
losis, hemorrhage and decomposi-
ton are beliefs and not real facts.
The master points out that this
theory is directly opposite to the
general spirit and purpose Of the
laws of Pennsylvania, with regard
to the public health and the treat
ment of disease.
"That the quarantine and inspec-
tion laws, and the enactments de-
signed to prevent contagion and in
fection are all based upon the
theory that disease is reality, and
that it exists without reference to
the condition of mind of its sub
jects.
1.-The master reaches the conclu.
sion that it would be injurious to
the community to incorporate a
group of citizens who would teach
the doctrine that there is no such
thing as a contagious disease, or
any disease, and practice the art of
curing what are called contagious
diseases in the manner above des-
cribed.'

Origin OF, .cr.v..,-

THE word 'crayat,'" said a man who
makes neckwear, .:came into our Ian
guases about 1886. Prior to, that year
a feature of the uniform of, the Aus.
trian cavalry was a wide band of
coarse linen worn In folds around the
neck under the short hussar Jacket.
This cavalry organ imitation was called
the Crayate, Its members being styled
the Cravates. Later. in the seyen
'teenth century, France recruited a reg
iment of cavalry. !, adopting for 1t the
uniform Of the Austrian regiment, In
Croatia, calling 1t the Royal Cravates.
Later. In England. the word 'erabat'
was applied to a neck handkerchief.
After the battle of Steenkirk, In Elan.
ders. In 1892. English officers brought
home the 'steenkirk.' a long, flowing
neck scarf edged with fine Flemish
lace, the ends of which were drawn
through a buttonhole, OF ENORMOUS size.
