Cut il Out Boys.

Significant but not surprising results
followed an inquiry in a school in an
other city recently made into the type
of boy, who smoke cigarettes. A
record of 20 boys in school who did
not smoke and 20 who did was kept for
long period. 1t was found that of
the cigarette smokers 10 were older
than the average in their grade, is had
bad manners, the department of 18
and physical condition of - were poor,
IA were in bad moral and IS in bad
mental condition, 16 were street loaf
ers, and 10 failed of promotion. OF
the non-smokers none were street loaf
ers only two tailed promotion and in
all the other mentioned particulars the
record showed not more than two who
could be classed with the smokers.
Street loating, bad manners, poor
scholarship and cigarette smoking
seem to go together.-Ex.

Faust is Coming Soon.

Mr.. Hubert Labadie and his COM
pany will present "Faust'' at opera
house on Monday night, May % The
scenery and electrical effects are said
to be exceptionally fine, and the COM
pany has most excellent reputation,
having played "Faust for the past nine
years with great success. Read the
following recent notice of their per-
formance.
Without exaggeration. the produc.
ton of Faust" given by the Labadie
Company at the opera house last even
ing was one of the best ever seen in
our city. Mary Van Troup-Labadie as
Marguerite carried off the honors
easily. Her portrayal of Goethe's i'm
mortal character was as finished as any
the stage affords to-day. Hubert Lab
adie as Mephisto sustained the part
evenly and well. The scenery was all
special. The electrical effects were
particularly good. d.-Hornellsville, IN.

Transporting Explosives.

Philadelphia Press.
The Harrisburg accident might. as
far as one can see, have happened un.
| der any system of transporting explo
sives by rail BY somewhat similar
accident, though in this case on Il
wharf, Amsterdam some years ago had
terrible explosion under the strictest
regulation for the carriage of explo
sives.
But the explosion on the Pennsylva-
MIA railroad will and should lead to a
demand for the federal regulation of
the transportation of explosives By
land. No regulation whatever exists
to-day. A statute two-score years old,
passed after an accident, prohibits un-
der penalty, the carriage of explosives
by land or sea in the same vehicle or
boat with passengers. New York has
enacted a like provision for commerce
within that state. Most states are
without even this prohibition, though
gross carelessness in the matter lead
ing to loss of life would doubtles,
be held by ajury to be manslaughter,
even without statute
More is needed in England for
thirty years special commission on
explosives has had charge of the en-.
tire subject. It regulates the manu-
facture, storage and carriage of high
explosives in the United Kingdom.
The inspectors of explosives cost in
the United Kingdom S22, 200 year, as
much as will be awarded in damages
for single one of the lives lost Thurs.
day. This supervision in England has
gone on for over thirty years. The
annual average of deaths from either
the manufacture or carriage of explo-
sives is only two or three a year over a
long term. The mineral product of
the United Kingdom is, moreover,
only just short of that of the United
States and the chief use of explosives
is in mine and quarry.
The manufacture of high explosives
must necessarily be under state super
vision in this country; but the federal
government should regulate transpor-
tation. A brief act shonld place the
power in the hands of the interstate
commerce commission. At present
dynamite is shipped as freight, with
other freight. Abroad it has to be sent
in separate trains, suitably marked.
Over 100000, 900 pounds of blasting
powder are yearly made in this coun-
try. High explosives to the amount
of 100000 pounds were made in
1900. This is nearly all transported
by rail. This means that about 500, 600
tons of blasting powder and 100000
tons of nitroglycerine are yearly in
freight cars going somewhere. Yearly
the amount increases. Many indus
tries depend upon cheap explosives.
Their transportation should be un
hampered, but it should not continu
unregulated.

Commencement Exercises.

The graduating exercises of the Glass
of 1905, Emporium High School, at the
opera house last Tuesday night were
exceptionally interesting and instruc-
tive. The relatives and friends of the
young people were present in large
numbers and generously applauded
their efforts which were worthy the
approval they received. From the Salu,
tory by Edward A. Hughes to the Val
edictory by Myrtle C. Lloyd, there was
not break in the interest and apprecia-
ton of the audience, but each recita-
tion, essay or address was received
with burst of applause that gave evi-
dence of the satisfaction and pride felt
by all in the fact that the course of
study had been completed by the sew
eral members with unquestiOned merit
and to that extent the preparation for
life's work faithfully attended to.
The class address by DR.. e. o. Lyte
was timely and practical one, giving
some wholesome advice in a pleasant
garb and enforcing it with many tell
ing incidents from the speakers own
life.
The music by the Ridgway orchestra
was of the proverbial excellence.

The POstmastership.

During the past week the main topic
of conversation has undoubtedly been
the matter Of the alleged dismissal OF
Postmaster w. F. Gruetzmacher, for
alleged shortage of accounts. Mr..
Gruetzmacber says that the various
stories circulated were exaggerated,
that there was shortage, but that he
was in no wise to blame for this. He
further states that he has assurances
that he will not be held responsible
for someone else's errors and that he
will be retained in Office. To prove
his contention, he pointed to the fol-
lowing special from Washington,
which says:
congressman Adams said Tuesday
that he had investigated the Water
town postoffice matter. He found that
some Inspector had made a report that
he had discovered Postmaster w. f.
Greutzmacher to be short in his &C
counts about $50, but that toe assist
ant postmaster had told him (the in
spector) that he had informed Gruetz-
macher at the time that the accounts
were all right and in balance, and that
therefore it was plain that the post
master had nothing to do with it. The
deficit was mediately covered.
The inspector, however, had recon-
mended the postmsater's dismissal on
account of tie shortage. Postmaster
General Wynne had called upon Con-
gresham Adams to name successor
to Greutzmacher, but Congressman
Adams now claims that he will stand
by the postmaster, and that he will
not be removed"
Numerous candidates have already
appeared in the field for the postm as
tership. however, and the game is be-
coming highly interesting.
