"Study to be Quiet"

This wholesome counsel is often
needed by young men who are discon-
tented on account of the demands
which their situation makes upon
them. There is something that is OF
far more Importance to us than the
spirit of restless, feverish excitement,
it is the possession of calm, strong,
earnest and thoughtful character
There is one condition of success that
is absolutely essential, viz, strict, in.
telligent, faithful, hearty attention to
our business, whatever it may be.
Whether we are waiting on customers
in store,or are in charge of books in a
counting room, or at work in mill or
shop, or field, we should study to do our
own business, to do it well, to do it
heartily, to do it faithfully, putting all
the intelligence into it that we possess.
And in doing our work we should
''study also to be quiet" We shall
have many occasions to exercise firm
control over self. Many times we shall
be tempted to give way to spirit of
restlessness and discomfort We shall
think that the hours are long, that the
demands made upon us are severe, that
our reward is small and our promotion
slow. We will be tempted sometimes
to think that others are shown more
favor than we, and that the best thing,
therefore for us to do is to throw up the
ungrateful situation.
The best counsel that we can receive
at such time is the message: "Study
to be quiet" Let US control our rest
lessness and discomfort. We must not
expect to have everything arranged
strickly according to our present liking.
We very probably have to do with others
who are older and presumably wiser
than we are. Our employer or super
intendent very possibly understands
ourselves. His demands may not be
so unreasonable as we feel disposed to
imagine. Let us ''study to be quiet"
Let us be patient. Let us not become
any less faithful or diligent or pains
taking. All things come to him who
waits. Great rewards or recognition
seldom come early. Let us be content,
or at least patient, if we SEQ others
better known or better paid than we.
If we keep command of ourself, if we
maintain quiet and contended mind,
if we keep steadily at our own proper
business, we shall achieve a success of
which we shall not need to be ashame. d

WOodsman's Awful Fate Under
Engine,

Henry Herring, a woodsman, was in
stantly killed on the Philadelphia and
Erie railroad Saturday night. He left
the station at Wetham shortly after 10
O'Clock, saying that he intended walk
ing to the home of Joseph Johnson, a
mile or more away.
He started up the railroad tracks, and
had gone only half mile when he was
struck by an east bound light train,
consisting of engine and caboose. He
was horribly mangled, and death must
have been instantaneous. His head
was crushed and both legs broken.
Coroner Shoemaker was called, but
he did not deem an inquest necessary,
as the facts showed the death to have
been accidental. Herring was about
forty-seven years of Williams
port Sun.

Take a Stand Against Lyuching,

There has been an alarmingly in
creased number of lynchings during
the past few months, in Northern as
well as in Southern States. We have
often wondered what would be the re-
suit if an occasion should arise in EN-
porium to tempt the spirit of lawless
mob vindictiveness. 1t is highly prob
able that with the same provocation
that has been given in other places, a
lynching mob could be as easily as
sembled here as elsewhere, unless we
shall school ourselves strongly in ad-
vance in sentiment that is unalter-
ably opposed to all lawlessness. To
be forewarned is to be forearmed. Let
the idea that all lynching is murder
take fast hold of our minds. That is
what right minded jurist, like Justice
Brewer, calls it, If we shall all make
up our minds in advance that lynching
is wrong and not to be tolerated and if
we determine resolutely in advance
that we will do all in our power to up
hold the hands of the law if the hour of
trial should come, there can be no
doubt that the majesty of the law will
remain unsullied among us. Every
citizen should read the letter of Presi-
dent Roosevelt to Governor Durbin of
Indiana. No stronger utteranoe against
lynching has appeared from any
quarter.
Another thing to remember in this
connection. The underlying idea which
impells to lynching and other forms of
mob violence is the thought that law
has not been and is not going to be
justly administered. There is no doubt
reason sometimes for complaint of the
laws delay and of miscarriages of JUS.
| tice; but on the other hand it is far too
easy to exaggerate these evils. Many
people allow themselves to fall into a
sneering and cynical spirit. They af-
feet to see no truth or honor or Justice
anywhere. They sneer at civil author
tiles and at all in places of influence
and responsibility. AS for their own
| part and responsibility in the life and
government of the community, they
seem utterly oblivious to it. They al
ways say 'they" when speaking of the
organized community, never "we".
We should discourage this base spirit
in ourselves and in others. 1t feeds
the monster of anarchy and lawless,
ness.

Efforts Crowned With Success.

The festival given at Cameron on
Saturday evening was very great
success. The finance committee ap-
pointed by the Pastor of the M. E.
Church, showed their ability along
this line by netting S34.05. The COM
mittee as appointed were: Mr.. Doutt
and wife; Mr.. Swan and wife, and Mrs
Dininney. These were ably assisted
by several others and especially by the
young ladies.

As Old AS You Feel,

People quit growing old at forty
half century ago. They quit it
when they ceased thinking themselves
old at forty, ceased dressing themselves
old at forty, and ceased actually being
old at forty, not to speak of thinking
themselves old at forty. What have
become of the widows caps, and the
matron's caps, and the solemn and stiff
suits our fathers and grandfathers
wore at forty? Gone to perdition and
the clo' junk shop, where they ought
to have been. The young man of fifty
or sixty now wears the natty sack
tweeds or serges that his son or grand.
son wears tipped off with jaunty
hat. He goes to baseball, the races,
he keeps up with the possession, and
is all in for a good time in moder-
alton, healthfully. The young women
with him in white or colors, with the
gay hat, who has the manners of a
youthful, but self respecting girl of
twenty in the last century, is his wife
perhaps grandmother, but none the
less young and happy yet They feel
young, they dress young, they believe
themselves young and in the language
of the late A. N. Cole-"By the Great
Horned Spoon, they are youngp'-

A BIG JUBILEE EVENT.
Welsh Bros. Shows Promise Many
Rare Sights and Up-to-Date
Features

The town and vicinityis heavily bill
ed for the appearance of the famous
Welsh Bros. Big Railroad Shows. The
Welsh Bros do not come here as strang-
ers or adventures, but as proprietors
of show whose reputation with press
and public stands second to none. Its
success has been achieved by the fun
damental principle of offering the best
in the market at the lowest price. 1t
is strictly moral in tone and character
and not one word said or done to offend
the most fastidious lady or gentleman.
The features this year are better than
ever, one of the most prominent is the
renowned Takezawa Royal Japanese
Troupe eight people,. These dexteri.
Gus Orientals appear in many amazing
acrobatic and novelty acts, all gorge
ously embellished with unique and
costly paraphernalia and costumes typ
ical of their native land. Another great
card is the introduction of Prof. John
Whites conclave of trained animals,
which comprises several Arabian hors-
es, twenty-five dogs, goats, mules and
monkies, all marvelously trained and
exhibiting exploits and tricks out of
the ordinary line. Then there are
many big erialistic acts, clever lady
gymnasts, up-to-date clowns, jugglers,
wire walkers, and sensational special
lists of every kind. Seats are provided
for five thousand persons; uniformed
ushers are in attendance to look after
the wants and comfort of patrons. The
street parade will leave the show
grounds on the morning of the exhi-
bition promptly at ten o'clock. The
exact day and date here is Emporium,
Monday, August 18th, at and p. m.

Italians Arrested.

On Tuesday night Chief of Police
Mundy received a telegram from the
Chief of Police, of st. Marys, to be on
the lookout for nine Italians who were
wanted at the latter place. 1t appears
that the men were brought from New
York city to work on the railroad but
when they arrived they refused to go
to work and took a tie pass to Empo-
rum where they were arrested yester-
day morning and taken back on Erie
mail.

VIII Leave Us.

The many friends of DR.. and Mrs. A.
w. Baker will be sorry to learn that
they have decided to leave Emporium.
The DR.. and his estimable wife have
been residents of our town for the past
nine or ten years and have a host of
warm friends who will regret to see
them go. They will depart for Will
Transport about September 1st and
take up their residence at 427 Park
Avenue. May they ever continue to
prosper, is our wish.

WHY Not Emporium +?

1t is authoritatively announced that
the Penn'a R. R. Company will erect a
$4,000 stone and brick depot at Port
Allegany. While congratulating our
neighbor on its deservedly good for
tune the right of Emporium to like
Improvement cannot be gainsayed.
The accommodations at the Junction
are obviously inadequate, and it is
earnestly hoped that the Company in
recognition of this fact will make early
provision for the comfort of its travel
ing patrons.

Delighted With Emporium.

Miss Edna Becker and Miss Florence
Robertson, two charming young ladies
of Buffalo, who arrived in our town
some two weeks ago to visit Miss Eva
Yates, left Sunday for home, via Por-
tage Falls. They report having the
jolliest kind of a time here and were as
sorry to leave US as we were to have
them go. Miss Yates gave little
party for them in the Reading Room,
on their arrival, where they met many
of our young folks and from that on
found their time crowded full of walks,
drives and delightful little parties.
Last Friday they made a trip to the
woods on the E. & R. V. R. R. with
Mr.. and Mrs. Lingle. Mr.. Lingle is
The Man of the. woods and to go with
him is an open sesame to the hospital
ity of the road and camps. They say
they had dinner at Camp 10 which
would have been a credit to the chef OF
city hotel. "Jimmie'' Murphy fur
nished the surprise of the day, with a
practical demonstration of the amount
of grub healthy country boy can
stow away. Fortunately Mr.. Dawson
with his supply train arrived before it
was time to get the mems supper, else
Jimmie would not have gotten an invi-
tation to visit Camp 19 again-at meal
time. The girls attended Mr. Gala,
gher's melon party Saturday and hur-
ried away for a drive over our beauti-
ful hills. Come again, next summer,
ladies, and you will find we have not
forgotten you.

rr. GaIIagher,s Melon Party.

Last Saturday Mr.. Thos. Gallagher
gave melon party for a number of his
friends, composed of the two young
ladies from Buffalo; Miss Thomas; Miss
Steck; Miss Linglo; Miss Nangle; Mrs.
Moore, and Mrs. Cloyes. ct. c." was
right at home with the melon knife and
after supplying each with a hunk
of the melon, slipped into a
crowded spot among the girls to have
his picture "took' by Mr.. Grant Allen,
who was perched upon a barrel with
his camera. Grant is pretty sure of
footing but when he did tumble down
he took a small boy with him; said he
never did like to go places alone.
''Dick" was so busy eating melon
that he never noticed handful of seeds
one of the girls poured down the back
of his neck. Ruben ''smelled de mel
on" from the furnace and came running
over to see what was doing. He oblig-
ingly agreed to pose for his picture
showing ''de white folks how to eat
meloa," if given a whole one to operate
on, together with the irrepressible
small boys who were ready to "dig inn
at the word "gor'
Unfortunately the girls could not
stay long, Come again ladies, all of
you-and more; we are never so busy
but what we are glad to see you, and
after a short visit with you, the sun
shines brighter, the world seems better,
and our burdens lighter. BzE
