WOES OF THE AGENT.
Questions Real Estate Man is Ex-
 pected to Answer.

Questions Real Estate Man is Ex-
 pected to Answer.
 Life is not all bed of roses for the real estate agent. and the things he has to put up with in his pursuit after the illusive commission are beyond the conception of the outside world, not eX- cepting the people who give him the most trouble-without realizing it, per- haps.
 The following list of questions, put by a prospective lessee to an agent who advertised a country place to rent for the summer probably represents about the limit of the catechising to which any agent ever had to submit. It eer- tainly suggests an abnormal develop ment of the bump of caution or in- quisitiveness-on the part of the would" be-lessee. Here is the list, with short explanatory preamble:
 If you will kindly answer each ques- tion in the space at right or under it it will be easier for you, and assist me, and is there is anything else that you think I should know. will you add it?

YOUR PROPERTY RIGHT IN YOUR
 OWN PHOTOGRAPH.

A Scotch case which touches in some measure on the much-discussed rights of privacy is noticed in recent issue of the London Law Times" In McCosh " Crow (March IT, 1903) before the Second Division of the Court of Sessions the facts are thus stated: "A father employed a photogap pher to photograph his two daughters, and ordered and paid for eighteen copies of. each photo graph. The photographers successors in business. of their own accord, made enlargements of the photographs and exhibited them in their studio for the purposes of their trade. To this the father objected, and, on the photo- graphers refusing to desist from ex- hibiting the photographs brought an action of interdict. In this action the aggrieved father has proved successful. the court Oord Young dissenting) hay- ing held that photographer who has been employed by a customer to take portrait has no right to print copies of it for sale or exhibition without the customers consent. The nature of a photographer rights in the negatives of photoga phs taken by him in the ordinary course or DuSlneSS was ulS- cussed by the judges, the view of the majority being that neither photo- grapher nor customer has the absolute right of property h negative. The photographer is entitled to the custody of the negative in order to secure to himself the privelege of supplying pos sible future orders, while the customer has an interest in it to the extent of entitling him to prevent the photo grapher using it except on his order and with his consent" So far as the actual decision goes. this case Is in line with previous determinations on this sub ject, the principle being that there is an implied contract when one sits to a photographer for portrait that the customer shall control the disposition of prints from the negative.
 But the dissenting opinion of Lord Young took wider range, and he went into the general question of the right of person to prevent the publication of portraits of himself. He said that twas absurd to say that g. father had any copyright in the features of his child or even in his own features. These views agreed with those reached by the courts of Michigan and New York.-Law Notes.

 The agent who received the foregoing actually started to fill in the answers, but only got about as far as the first. Then he wilted as the size of the task grew on him; and making mental comparison of the length of the list and the brevity of life, he gave it up. He is still wondering whether the man who wrote out the list ever came East with his father, mother, wife and four chii- dren," all ont he quivive for contagious diseases and other perils that Turk in the path of the unwary.-New York Commercial Advertiser.

Norwich. May 22.-Norwich broke the losing streak by taking a game from HoIyoke to-day by timely batting with the bases full.

A Welcome Visitor.

Hon. L. Rogers, of Kane, was very
welcome caller at the PRESS office on
Monday. Mr. Rogers, who is the very
efficient postmaster at Kane, was on
his return from Washington to further
aid the facilities of his Office, which is
now one of the most important offices
in western Pennsylvania. Col. Rogers
has hosts of friends in Cameron county
who know and fully realize his worth
as a citizen and loyal Republican-in
fact he used to be one of Us, for it was
he who first established a paper in
Emporium, then Shippen), but closed
the shop to enter the army. The grand
old gentleman, we are pleased to note,
looks 'just as young as he used to be-"
and is full of energy and vinegar.
May he live to fight many battles for
right.

SPANGLER,
UnluckY Troupe.

The Bennett Moulton theatrical
tronpe that visited Emporium some
weeks ago, are having bad luck. Be.
fore coming to this place one or two of
their leading actors died, supposed of
smallpox. Since leaving here their
ill-lock seems to have followed them.
Last Sunday the entire company were
quarantined in the Reading railroad
depot at Milton, one of the actors
being taken down with smallpox.
The unfortunate man was placed in
an empty coach and the car pushed
on side track below tho town. The
remaining members and their belong
ings were fumigated when they depart
ed for Danville.
When the company arrived at Dan
vile Monday, officers sprang aboard
each platform of their car and COM
manded them to keeptheir seats. The
car was then placed on a siding, and
the train bore it back to Milton. The
engagement was cancelled and the
manager, who was to meet them at
Danville, did not appear. There was
not money enough in the party to sup
port them, and since their return to
Milton they have been wiring far and
near for help from their friends
Meanwhile meals are being sent In
to them, but they continue to live in
the car. In the party are number OF
women and several children, who are
suffering severely from their misfor-
tune. The smallpox patient is Her
bert Lindhoim.

Birthday Surprise.

Mr.. and Mrs. D. w. Ensign, residing
on West Fourth street and Woodland
avenue, gave surprise party, Monday
evening, in honor ofthe tenth birthday
anniversary of their charming little
daughter Grace. A large number of
her little friends responded to the invi-
tations, and at 4.30 O'Clock the young
lady was ushered into the presence of
a host of bright and smiling faced
school mates whose very countenances
revealed the fact that they were burst.
ing with anxiety to start the merriment
booked for the evening, and in turn
the utter astonishment and surprise
which yelled the rosy, sweet face of
the juvenile hostess was convincing
enough that sometbin' had been doin',
and an instant later this surprised lit
tie lass was in the hands of the "mob'
and severely reminded that she was at
least ten, with some "to grow on" as
the wee folk say. The little ones pro-
nounce the occasion one of the most
delightful it has been their privilege to
attend, and will long remember the
affability and hospitality of their little
friend.

EMPORIUM, PA. THURSDAY, DECEMBER II. 1903
Large Track of Timber.

The largest tract of virgin timber in
the state, is said to be that located in
Mexican, Elk and Cameron counties,
mainly in Mexican county, along Potato
Greek, south of Smethpcrt. The tract
is composed of thirty thousand acres.
The bark is owned by the PennTanning
Company and the logs by the Goodyear
Lumber Company, says the Couders-
port Enterprise. The timber OF this
tract will be manufactured at the
Austin mills, and it is considered there
is sufficient amount to keep the mill
running for at least six years, but it Is
hardly probable that the work of deli
vering at Austin will begin in less than
three or four years. Some days ago

spector for the Penn Tanning Com
pany; John w. Dennis, of Austin,
Timber Superintendent of the Good
year Lumber Company, with VIM,

ed on foot entirely round the tract, the
trip requiring six days Of active walk.

Star Course.

The second number of the Star
Course, a lecture by DR.. Havey
Graeme Furbay, on the theme "Christ
and My Country" will be given in the
Court House, Friday evening, Dec. 1s,
at 8 o'clock. We confidently advise
our people to attend this lecture. If
you delight in stirring eloquence and
beautiful diction you will not be dis
appointed. Tickets are on sale at
Lloyd's. Read the comments below
and you will be convinced that this lee
ture will be exceptionally good.
DIR. Furbay speaks with logic, elo-
quence, and pathos. By his rare des-
criptive powers, enriched by the treas
ures ofpoetry, history and the tragedy
of life, carries his hearers to the goal
of conviction.-Evansville, Qnd. J
Courier
The lecture last evening by DR.. Far
bay was a masterpiece. His word-pic
lures are an artists production. He is
forceful speaker and must be heard
to be appreciated-Battl Creek,
Mich Daily.
DR.. Furbay is an orator of unusual
powers. He is forceful, original and
effective.-Barnesville, (O.l Republi.
| can.
DR.. Furbay is as keen as Damascus
blade. His delivery appeals to the
emocions, but that is not ALL His lee
lures are packed with facts. Terse,
vigorous, acute, he reaches the reason
and moves the will.-Rev. Edward F.

rlasonic Banquet at Driftwood.

The following Masons from Empori-
um visited Driftwood Lodge last Fri
day: I. K. Hockey, Thos. H. Norris,
U. A. Palmer, Geo. ]. LaBar, James G.
Earl, Grant s. Allen, A. @. Blum, E.
w. Gaskill, Willis Gaskill and Stowe
L. Barton, and partok of the Banquet
prepared by the Driftwood ladies at
Riley's Hotel. They report an enjoy
able time, and that the spread surpass-
ed anything ever given by our Drift
wood friends, which however, judging
from past experience, seems almost
impossible.
They report that the Banquet was
simply perfect, in the manner of pre-
paration and service, and that the
tables were elegantly decorated with
red and white carnations, smilax and
maiden hair ferns.
Brother Geo. w. Huntley, Sr., acted
as Toast Master, and called on all pre-
sent for few remarks. d. d. G. NJ,
Geo. w. Brown, of Lock Haven, con-
graduated the Fraternity on the bright
outlook for the acquisition of Masonic
Home, probably to be situated at Cres-
son Springs, the idea being conveyed,
that this is to be true Home in every
sense of the word, intended to accom-
modate aged Free Masons and their
families.
Our Emporium Brethren unanimous
ly congratulated the Driftwood ladies
on their fine entertainment, each sue
ceeding year seemingly surprising
previous, occasions, the truth of which
is amply vouched for by the fact, that
such "Bon-Viveurs" as Hockey,
Norris, Blum and Barton and the rest
of the boys, could not be prevented
from partaking of this annual occasion
except by death, or some equally
tragic reason.
The party wishing to return on the
early Buffalo Flyer, and the time being
limited, decided to save the expense of
lodging, and passed the remaining few
hours with "King Pedro" Brother
Barron easily carrying off the honors,
by winning the "Boby Prize"
1908 Banquet is pleasant memory,
and all are anxiousiy looking forward
to a similar occasion in 1904.
