Pittsburgs millionaires have done . great deal to make the city famous, Pittsburg's millionaires have done much to make the city infamous. Of late we have had instances not few of the latter, until the prosperous smoky town there at the junction of the Monongahela and Allegheny has become a byword and reprcach, an il- lustration that money is the root of much evil-to again misquote that oft misquoted proverb.
 But even the most careless must ad- init that there are millionaires and millionaires, that not all are given over to the world and the flesh And per haps it were well to consider for a moment other aspect of Pittsburg mill Honaires than the overshadowing one of gay old boys and "the foolish young man" liking their champagne from high-heeled slipper of popular chorus girl.
 s.e To be sure the fabulous wealth did come so fast to so big class of men in rittsburg it Is no wonder they, a large proportion, lost their heads. Men have gone mad for no less reason, and is not the degeneracy, the indifference to the good old bedrock virtues, but a kind of madness? It takes a pretty level brain to stand success, and to rise ! from job of a dollar day to the fcontrol of multi-milAons as a rule is a flittle too much for mere man. In a every interesting article in the Brook lyn Eagle some time ago the reader was given glimpse at the material progress so marked feature of the Smoky City in recent years. The arti-

Rheumatism Crazes the Mind
URIC-O, An Internal Treatment for the
Blood-It is Widely Recon-
mended as a Cure.

Every sufferer from Rheumatism is
familiar with the sleepless nights, and
nerve binding, muscle twisting pains
which they have to endure. Napor
baths have been used, Mt. Clemens has
been visited, and hundreds of dollars
spent in search of relief. There is but
little use of other experiments, as relief
and a permanent cure for all forms of
Rheumatism can only be found in
Smiths Specific Uric-O. 1t matters
little how long one has suffered from
the trouble, or how intense the suffer
ing, Uric-O will cure you. 1t cures by
its direct action upon the blood; mus
cles, and kidneys, neutralizing poison
GUS uric and rheumatic acids. Drug
gists and Physicians everywhere are
recommending Uric-O, because they
know that at last there has been a
remedy prepared which actually cures
the disease. Uric-O is manufactured
by the Smith Drug Company, Syracuse,
N. Y. Is supplied to users in large
size bottles, which sell for 81 co. Your
Druggist can supply you with the rem
edy, or you can order direct. Samples
and circulars will be forwarded free to
all who apply. Use Uric-O for Rheu-
matism only. 1t may possibly save
your life.

Turkey Supper.

The members Of the Presbyterian
Brotherhood served Il turkey supptr
10 the Presbyterian chapel last Thur--
day evening, which was we'll patronized,
In fact the patronage surpassed the ex-
pectations OF the men and the culinary
departed was exhausted before all the
people we're served. One hundred ana
sixty people were served with supper.
1t was new experience for the men
and they were too generous with turkey
in serving the first tables and that was
what caused the Illustration among the
cooks and walters later in the evening.
The ladies did not help in any way in
getting up the supper or waiting on the
tables, it was strictly in the hands of
the men and it was an excellent supper.
There were cut flowers on the tables
and everything was as nicely arranged
as the most fastdious could ask for.
We understand the supper was given
more for social event than money
making affair, and it was success soci-
ally. The Park Theatre orchestra
furnished music during the supper
hour.
Arrangements had been made for
number of toasts after the people had
all been served with turkey, &C., but
the shortage in provisions, which the
men had not calculated on, delayed
matters some in getting new supply
and the toasts were not given.

ger of the new shoot breaking on ac-
count of rapid srowth. When tree
has grown rapidly the first year it may
be better to cut back the second spring,
and it is good plan to let the straight

break for the new growth of those cut
back. Ordinarily, however, the cutting
back is done after two years growth,
and the new sprout will make post

AL. Prescott For Senator.

There is a big contest on in the state
of Michigan for tie office Of United
States Senator. There are a. number
OF active candidates, including three or
four members of the House from that
State, but none of them seem 10 have
anything like a firm grip on it.
In conversation with gentleman
yesterday who is we'll versed in Mich
igan politics he said that he would not
be much surprised il Allen Prescott, of
Bay City, present Secretary of State of
Michigan, should come 10 as a dark
horse and win out.
"The State Administration has not
yet showed its hand" he said, "but it
is generally believed that Prescott is
the man the administration prefers.
Besides, Prescott is popular with every
body, aud the active candidates for lhe
Office would prefer him to any of their
opponents, because Prescott is not a
candidate, and has done nothing antag-
onistic to the interests of any of them
The same authority said that while
Mr.. Prescott was not a talker, and
would not do any oratorical stunts
In the Senate, he had other qualities
that were more valuable than the
ability to pump hot air, and that he
would make an excellent working
Senator, the kind that the practical
people from the Badger State most
admired.
Allen Prescott is an old Reynolds
vile boy, having been born and reared
in that classic town, and it would be
specially gratifying to the old inhab-
itauts, and it would in measure raise
the credit OF every one of its residents,
If one Of its products should reach the
exalted position OF United States Sena-
tor.
The older citizens of Reynoldsville
will remember sal" Prescott as a ro-
bust haxen-haired boy, so full of animal
spirits that he could scarcely contain
himself, and popular with everybody on
account of his generous impulses. He
is son of Rev. G. H, Prescott, who be-
gan his career as lumberman at
Prescovtville, and subsequently went to
Michigan, and latter to Cleveland,
Ohio, where he has prospered so we'll
that he is numbered among the numer-
GUS millionaires of that city.-Punxsu-
tawney Spirit.

Milking Machines.

Now that milking machines have
shown us that they can milk cows
without drying them up new claim
is being made for them. The milk Is
drawn In vacuum and deposited In
covered pail through tubes without
coming in contact with the atmosphere.
1t is well known that milk Is spoiled
by lad odors from the stable and from
dust and dirt falling into it during the
process Of milking. In the best dairies
great deal of expense and care are
continually expended to procure milk
as clean as possible. If the milking
machine proves as satisfactory as 1t
promises to be it will revolutionize
dairying, not only solving the labor
problem as applied to milking, but by
furnishing better quality of milk at
less expense. 1t is said that milk
drawn from the udder by the milking
machine and carried at once to thor
oughly cold sterilized bottles will keep
In good condition for week.
