IMPUDENT SERVANTS.

A number of citizens of Hellertown,
Northampton county, petitionod the
borough council to enact curfew or
dinance. Councjlmen retorted that
their duties were already arduous
enough without having added to them
that of raising children for parents. 4"
Without inquiring as to the wisdom
or otherwise of curfew law, it must
be said that those councilmen were
impudent and disrespectful servants
of the people, and we hope their con-
stituents will teach them a sound les
son in the alphabet of ordinary courtesy
when they again come up for election.

A SAD PHASE.

Hazleton's COW filming ordinance has
its sombre side also. The Hazleton
Daily Standard notes that among the
nine COWS recently impounded under
the new ordinance two were the prop
erty of poor widow who was COM
PEELED to hand over 81 before she was
given possession. And yet the law is
just and right. 1t might have been a
good thing for some local philanthro-
pist to have helped the widow pay that
fine, but the city couldn't remit il.

TO PENSION TEACHERS.

The Erie Times is strongly i'll favor
of immediate legislation in the direc-
tion of pensions for old and deserving
teachers. 1t asserts that veterans of
tht teaching profession who have had
little chance to create surplus for
themselves while giving life of ser
vice to the State, should be the espe-
cial care of the Commonwealth. IN
doubtedly they are among the most
useful and deserving citizens of the
State. The work in which they are en-
gagged is of quite perennial Importance
and should commend them to the prac-
tical gratitude and affection of the
people,

AN OLD RESIDENT
PASSES AWAY

Michael H. Wallize. one of the Oldest
and most widely known residents of
this vicinity, departed this life Friday
night, death being due wholly to the
infirmities of old age.
Michael II. Wallize was aged 92
years and months. With two or three
exceptions he was the oldest man in
Danville. He was remarkably active
until a comparatively recent period.
His memory as related to recent events
was very poor but the scenes and in
cidents of his long past youth still lin
gered in his mind very vividly.
The deceased was born in Lycoming
county. He came to Danville in 1887,
when still young man. In 1910 he
was married to Harriet Richart, who
still survives at the age of SO years.
On November 18th next Mr.. and Mrs.
Walllze would have been married 66
years.
Mr.. Wallize was builder and con-
tractor, but retired about the close of
the civil war. When he came to Dan
vile there were very few houses on
the north side of the canal. He was
very fond of dwelling upon the past
and of describing the many changes
that occurred in Danville during his
long career.
The deceased along with his wife
was a member of the Grove Presbyter-
ian church, the venerable couple being
the only ones of the original members
of the Grove church surviving.
Mr.. Wallize. although very feeble,
was able to be about until Thursday
of last week AT 3 a. IN. Friday symp-
toms developed, which indicated that
the end was not far off. He declined
rapidly until II O'Clock Friday night
when the end came.
In addition to his wife the deceased
is survived by a daughter. Mrs. l. A..
Persing and one son, John r. Wallize,
of this borough

CURTAILS DIVORCE.

The Greenville Record informs us
that there has been remarkable in
crease in the number of applications
for divorce in Mercer county not less
than dozen having been brought at
the current term. 1t adds that the new
law which requires deposit with the
clerk of the court of enough money to
cover all the expenses of the case will
probably have a tendency to diminish
the number of applications.

THE HOME BUILDER

The Shenandoah Herald prints some
proper sentiments concerning the

is the man who owns his own home.
Home building is equivalent to nation

society is the hearthstone. Upon it is
erected the greatest glory of the

OLEOMARGERINE.

The superior court of Pennsy lvania
has just confirmed the contention of
Food Commissioner Warren that no
person can vend oleomargerine in this
State without taking out a special IL
cense for that specific purpose. This
will please every citizen who believes
that when he wishes to buy butter he
ought to be given what he asks for.
Oleomargerine is not harmful many
persons are fond of it. But it should
be sold and eaten on its own merits.

The "City party" and the jefferson

SAYS his HERBS
CURED 4 LEPER

TRUCKER, January 27.-Dr. An
thony thinner, an eccentric physician,
who resides about six miles from here,
claims to have cured a case of leprosy
by the application of herbs. DR. Zim-
mer is said to have had extraordinary
success in curing many chronic dis
eases, and is widely respected.
Some weeks ago in San Francisco he
met George Papelow, who had been
suffering from leprosy for many years,
and persuaded him to go with him to
his mountain home, saying he believed
that he could effect a cure. PapeloW
consented, and remained with DR. Tim
mer for several weeks undergoing a
treatment of special herbs
DR.. thinner recently brought his pa
tfent to Truckee and exhibited him to
two local physicians. Doctors Bryant
and Shoemaker, who examined him and
pronounced him to be quite cured.
Pape1ow claimed to be the discoverer
of the herbs in question. but as a mat
ter of fact he was only a patient of
DR.. thinner who alone knows the Sc
Cret of the herbs and of their applica-
ton.

STRANGE LIZARD
FROM The SEA

Really, you know, DR.. Emerson
thought that he was on the trail of the
sea serpent-or was it the Chinese
dragon wiggling over seas to Oahu for
the celebration of konohi-and belated!
Let the Doctor tell it:
''They told me. - he said. H'that
some kind of mOnstrous lizard, with
four legs and four fingers on each foot,
had been washed up or thrown up or
wrlggled up onto the sand spit where
the dredger is working in the harbor
and | hired boat and rowed over there
to find it. But | did not find it, The
mud from the dredger had covered it,
or it had crawled otf-or something.
Anyhow, it was gone.
And now-what was it DR.. Emerson
was2very explicit in the matter of claws
and fingers. Also, he said that it was
about so long. - indicating the length
with a stretching apart of his hands at
about the linear dimensions of a fair
sized ella monster. Did anybody ever
hear of four-Iegged sea serpent. a
baby one, with four fingers on each
foot? Be there lizards in the sea, and
is Honolulu threatened with a reptilian
invasion that not the best efforts of the
law and the powers can keep out2 Has
some ella monster found a submarine
connection between Arizona and these
isles, and pioneered it? And has the
beast gone back for more of it's kind?
Honestly, 1t is unfortunate that DR.. EN-
arson did not secure this specimen. He
would have made it safe-and mavbe it

ROOM FOR
SENATORS
Capitol Officials May
Have to Move
Offices.

One of the problems that will con
front Secretary Atkinson when he gets
on the lid, and one that will receive
his attention, too, is the plan that is
believed to be in contemplation TO make
such changes in the quarters of officials
at the Capitol building as will involve
giving the Territorial Senate permanent
quarters without compelling The Secre-
5tary to move out into hot box on the
upper Eva lanai regularly every two
years.
The scheme, as it has been preached,
is to move the Superintendent of Public
Works down into the basement. bag and
baggage, and give his present quarters
to the Senators. There is plenty of
room IN the basement. In fact, there
are rooms there not occupied. and be-
sides that County Road Supervisor Sam
Johnson has roomy offices there now. for
which 1t is said the county pays no
rent. The Public Works office would
give the Senators more room than they
ever had upstairs, besides committee
room in Superintendent Holloway's pri-
vate office, and rooms for their clerks
and stenographers. And they would be
on the same floor as the House. which
meets in the old throne room That /
would be a convenience.
And still another matter which will |
engage the Secretary s attention will be |
the often talked of plan to repair the
Capitol. The building is certainly in
need of repairs. The roof has many
oose states, and in places the cutters
designed to carry off rainwater are torn
away and lying loose on the roof. The
result of this is that there are leaks III
various places, and, of course, the
weather does not spare any structure
hat once begins to fall to pieces.
Many of the small mirrors in the walls
# the place have been torn away, and
he lamps at the mauka entrance are
III awry, as though they had been
truck or had been out too late at night.
The Governor S room, and the Secre-
airy s, have been put in pretty good
rider, but none of the other offices
would be the worse for some paint, nor
vould the building itself. In fact, it is
ealing off in every direction, outside
nd in, and the hive of bees on the
ecretary's lanai has found a hole in
he porch and has been for years busily

Mr.. Spencer Phillips Home in Jones
County Destroyed by Fire Sunday
Morning.

Sunday morning between 10 and IL
o'clock the comfortable home Of Mr..
Spencer Phillips, between kinston and
Trenton, in Jones county, was de-
stroyed by fire, entailing a loss of
$1,000 to $4,000, without any insurance
to V Most of the furniture was
saved but a good deal of wearing ap-
parel was lost in the flames.
Mr.. and Mrs. Phillips, who are both
advanced in years, were alone in the
house at the time when Mr.. Phillips
attention was attracted to a colored
man, Jim Spikes, running down the
road towards the house. He went to
the door and was told that the house
was burning down over their heads.
The fire probably started in the ceiling
or roof and caught from the chimney.
