ing terms. The Brooklyn Eagle
printed the following the day after
the election:
In the choice of DR.. James H.
Darlington as Bishop of the Harris
burg Diocese, the clergy OF that
district have shcwn wisdom. DR..
Darlington is the rector Of Christ
church, in this city, large and in
fluential parish, and his clerical ex-
perience covers twenty-three years.
During that time he has become
thoroughly conversant with church
matters, but he has also proved
himself an alert and public spirited
citizen; he has been chaplain of a
local regiment, trustee of college,
a member Of conservative, yet pro-
gressive, societies and bodies, and
has kept himself informed upon
great questions. He is man of
agreeable personality, and his career
in the pulpit has been marked by
scholarship and dignity. He will
be no mere fgurehead as bishop,
but will prove that the honor which
has come to him unsought has been
properly awarded"
1t was announced yesterday, after
a conference between Bishop Pred
erick Burgess, Long Island Bish-
op Potter and Coadjutor Bishop
Greer, of New York, with Bishop
elect Darlington, that plans were

lyn, subject to approval of presid-
ing Bishop Tuttle, of Missouri, who

Five or six bishops, including
the four named with probably Bish-
op Ethelbert Talbot, Central Penn

one years, and is very widely
known, always having closely as
sociated with everything pertain.

The HOSPITAL.

If there is an institution that is
going to be a help to Bloomsbury,
it is the hospital, which has been
assured, as already stated in these
columns by the great kindness and
willing heart ofour esteemed towns
man, Joseph Ratti Perhaps the
average reader has not thought OF
the manifold benefits the hospital
will bring to our people. Perhaps
you have never needed it yourself.
Perhaps you never may, but there
are others.
In the homes where many COM
forts are, the hospital may not be
appreciated at its iull worth. But
take the man or woman whose
home is hard enough even in health
and let lingering sickness or sud
den shattering accident come, and
to that one the cool, clean rooms
and careful nursing of trained at
tendauts may mean much. When
the doors of the hospital open for
them it means life and restoration
to hard labor no doubt, but that
means support of loved ones.

Don Visits the School.

Last Friday we announced that TIN
high school pupils would read some ar
ticles on various subjects Monday after
noon, and invited YOU to be there. Th,
work was not finished on time and tht
presentation of the subjects was post
posed till 3:25 next Monday. They ar,
charging on the subjects more than wa
at first expected, and Professor MeItol
says they will he good, SO it is up to hin
and the pupils.
When we found we couldn't hear the
articles written by the coming editors,
we visited the fifth grade under direc
tion of Miss Don Carlos. They Were
talking about the civilization of the diff
ferenr European countries of today, anC
one little girl gave the Russians bad
name by telling how terribly cruel they
were to whip people with the whip OF
nine lashes and hooks in the end of each
lash to tear the flesh. One of the boys
said that these might be exceptional
| cases; that dreadful things happen in
the large cities of our own country
which could not be taken as examples
to show what all the people were like
The Turks were mentioned as examples
of Il low cruel people, whom the pupils
had no use for. Talking of means of
communication between continents
brought up the subject of cable lines,
and Don was pressed into service to tell
about cables and their size, construc-
tion, manner of laying them in the
ocean, the surveying of the ocean beds
and lot of other matters which the
pupils thought of and could not refrain
from asking about. From this room we
went into the sixth grade, taught, by
Miss Anna Scott They were discussing
matters of government, but before We
learned very much about 1t the bell rang
and five or SIX of the pupils marched
out. Pretty soon they came back with
more hats than they could wear, and
they showed that their hearts We're in
the right place by dividing with the
others so that none of them had to go
home bareheaded.
The pupils marched out of all the
rooms at the same time, and broke ranks

Honest Stamp maker Refuses to Re-
commend Rubber Stamps.

Idaho Falls Times: Knowing that
many persons had been using rubber
stamps to mark their butter wrappers
and wishing to supply the demand for
such an article, the Times wrote to the
Salt Lake Stamp Works, of which this
paper is local representative, and asked
for sample impressions and, prices on
outfits for printing butter paper with
rubber stamps.
Those honestpcople make the same
reply that the Times has made to simi-
liar inquiry--that the stamps are not a
satisfactory method of marking butter.
They say: I'VE have made a number
of butter stamps and in some instances
have had complaints of the ink tainting
butter Whether it does it or not we do
not know Of our own personal knowl-
edge Some inks will do this
The only safe way to do is to get your
butter wrappers printed. Most printing
Offices can do this for you. The Repub-
lican Office prints thousands of them and
solicits your trade. We furnish 100
wrappers for $l0O. Larger orders are
cheaper in proportion.
