UNIFORM PRIMARIES.

Objection TO the uniform primaries
has come from some of the townships
on the ground that the farmers would
be compelled to go twice to the polls,
once for the nominations and another
time for the elections Yet III many of
the townships nominations are at pre-
sent made by caucuses and conven-
tions, and this places upon the voters
as much of an obligation to go TO the
nominating places as the uniform prim
aries would impose. This has been the
custom in populous townships especi-
ally. No greater duty would be placed
upon the voters by the uniform prim-
ary system than has been imposed by
the old system. They can shirk, the
former as they have shirked the lat
ter. But the uniform primary plan
would be more of an incentive to go
to the polls and assist in making the
nominations. There would be the as
surance that no intermediate influence
would be i'll the field to tempt the cor
ruptionists. 1t is hoped that the bor-
oughs and the townships will adopt
the new plan without hesitation.

Boy Shot With Revolver.

strated and as "A consequence Thomas.
the twelve year old son of William
Schlegle, of Shamokin is lying i'll y
critical condition at the Miners hos
pital with but very slight hopes for
his recovery.
MONDAY afternoon together with a
youth named Tyson young Schlegle
went out on the hillside near his home
60 shoot mark with an old revolver.
In his endeavors to cock the trigger
Schlegle was unsuccessful and Tyson
went to assist him. He took the revolv-
er, which was an old style one, and
was engaged in trying to get the trig-
ger back. Young Schlegle was stand
ing close by watching. Suddenly the
hammer went back a short distance
and before Tyson could lock it in
position there was loud report, fol-
lowed by a sharp cry from Schlegle
who lay moaning and writhing on the
ground
Frightened almost out of his wits
Tyson lei the youth to his home and
hurriedly summoned DR., Bickle. The
latter found that the ball had entered
the forehead and lodged behind the
right eyehall, bulging it from the
socket, an after temporarily treating
aud bandaging the injured optic order

evening were to the effect that there
were but slight hopes entertained for

Pathetic Appeal for Lost BOYS.

Chief-of- Police Mincemoyor Satur-
day received pathetic appeal from
the Chief of Police of Sandusky. O.,
asking for aid and co-opeIatioa in the
final search for two little boys, Will
liam Missig and Joseph Wirth, who
mysteriously disappeared from the
streets of Sandusky on July 13 1899,
and who are supposed to have been
kidnapped. AS good way of getting
the facts before the people the press
of the country is asked to assist. Chief
Mincemoyer has cuts of the little boys
as they appeared when they left home.
At the present time Willie Missig
would be seventeen years of age and
Joseph Wirth sixteen Through all
the intervening eight years the search
for the missing boys has heen diligent-
ly prosecuted by the anxious parents.
Anyone who has any information that
might prove of value will kindly ad-
dress the chief -of-police of Sandusky,
10.
The chief of police receives many
inquiries for missing people and as a
general thing they hardly cause more
than passing interest, but in the present
case there is an element of extreme
pathos, recalling many features of the
Charlie Ross case. The police of the
entire country are at work.

PUBLISH THE LAWS

The Pittston Gazette favors the ad-
option of an act requiring the pub
LEGATION of the laws of the State in a
sufficient number of newspapers in
each county. 1t says: with the in
creasing enactment of laws regulat-
ing foot products, the dairy and the
farm, the killing of game and the
catching of fish, the trespassing upon
the lands and similar laws it is abso-
lutely necessary that efficient public
ity be given so that the people may
not be ignorant of and innoceutly vio-
late the laws of the Commonwealth.

The farmers of this section have ev

The Vensngo Daily Herald is with
in the realm of truth when it declares
that mo man ever gets so old that he
can afford to be ashamed of the natur-
al love of his mother. Some young
men who have just sprouted up from
boys appear to think that there is a
great disgrace in showing loving
tenderness for their mother in public.
Nothing will vouch 80 thoroughly for

fact that he still loves his old mother

TIE LAW WILL
Be INVOKED

1t is sad state of affairs when a
quiet and inOffensive man who is en-
deavoring to earn an honest living i'll
a town where everyone is supposed to
have the protection of the law, during
business hours is obliged to lock him
self III his store in order to escape the
taunts aid annoyance of unfeeling or
| unthinking people Yet this is precise
ly what has been going on day af-
ter day during the year or more past
on the busiest part of Mill street, the
undeserving victim of it all being J..
Cooper Montgomery, who conducts a
tobacco store opposite the opera house.
The way this man has been treated
is nothing short of shame and "a dis
grace to the town. There is scarcely
an evening-and very often the same
nuisance exists in the day time-when
some one is not annoying the tobacco
mist; often there are groups in front
OF the store, all equally guilty, who

| the street Once inside they run things
| TO suit themselves and in order to pro-
| tect himself Cooper" is often oblig-
ed TO lock the door and shut out his
| customers. 1t is then that things
| reach such pass that they have be-
| come a positive scandal While some
| kick against the door outside others
throw down the awning and tantalize
the man in all the various ways that
ingenuity can devise. Often the per
petrators are the merest hoodlums, but
just as frequently they are men, from
whom one would expect something
| better-veTy much better
The threadbare argument that if the
man would pay no attention to those
! who seek to have fun with him there
would soon be an end to it has no force
| i'll the premises. All persons can notbe
! philosophical under such circumstances
and if men have no consideration and
real sympathy for another poor fellow
whose lines have not always fallen il
pleasant places, then it is time for the
strong arm of the law to interfere.
Such a crisis has been reached al
present. Several citizens. whose sym
pathy has beer aroused, have taken the
matter in hand and will see to it that
the man is protected. One of these, q
man of standing, yesterday in no un'
certain terms stated what he for one
intended to do, if the nuisance is not
abated Immediately. Arrests will GER
tainly follow and if those in the habit
of making themselves Objectionable
about the store are wise they will take
this tip and govern themselves accord
ingly.

DANnuRY,s Goop IoKE.

Danbury, Jan. 24.--The Danbury hos- pital will receive. a donation of $500 in a day or two, and the means that led to the gathering of the money were novel, to say the least. The whole thing was done on the impulse of the moment, and the hospital will be bene- f1ted to the amount of half thousand dollars as the result of what started in jest.
 Four prominent business men of the city were lunching at the Grovelane the other noon, when the subject of the present effort to raise funds for the hospital came up.
 "I'll be one of five to give $100 to the hospital" said one of them. "Tll give the same," said another, and the other two agreed to the same proposition. The one who launched the scheme called up a friend on the telephone and in five minutes returned with the news that he had secured the fifth one. The checks were made and posted, and the coffee was drank with relish.
 The members of the party which started the contribution were N. Bur- ton Rogers, Frank H. Lee, Dr. E. A. Stratton and Harry J. D. Plant. The man called up on the phone was c. ] Mallory.

MAN TAKEN TO HOSPITAL.

Car and Delivery Wagon Collide
 The delivery wagon belonging to Adam D. Ridinger, butcher at 52O State street, became mixed up with trolley car of the Consolidated railway at Franklin and State streets about 10 0 clock yesterday morning. The driver of the wagon, John Henke, twenty-eight years old, who boards at 101 Bishop street, was thrown into the street and injured so badly that he was taken to the New Haven hospital for treatment. The horse attached to the wagon was smashed up to such an extent that the police of the Grand avenue precinct had Dr. J. H. Kelly, the veterinary sur- geon, kill the animal.
 Henke, the driver, has no broken bones, so far as the doctors at the hos pitaI have discovered, but he is badly injured and may be suffering from in- ternal injuries He was taken to the hospital in a carriage.
