Croaking Again.

Another shooting scrape is reported
from Emporium. This time the fellow
took to the streets in his night clothes,
followed by shots of an irate husband.
Evidently some one must have secur-
ed another jug of Port Allegany fire
water.-Reporter.
From reading the Reporter one would
think that Port Allegany was free from
all troubles of the above nature, but
from another source we learn that
most disgracetul fight was pulled off
between two women residents of that
peaceful little village, on one of the
principal streets one day last week, in
which one woman was knocked down
by the other, who proceeded to jump
upon her in most shameful man.
ner. Family troubles are said to be the
cause of all this disorder. We failed to
see report of the affair in the Report
or which is always first to find fault
elsewhere. "Evidently that fire water''
is bad stuff.

Accidental Mistakes.

A good one is going the rounds; A
certain business man in town not 1000
miles away was sitting in the office
alone, enjoying a smoke, when he had
occasion to use the telephone. He
arose, laid the cigar on the chair and
took down the receiver when a friend
stepped in the offie and started to sit
down on a chair. Not realizing that
the operator could hear what he was
saying and just as she was going to
say what number please" in her
sweetest tones, the man yelled, 'Look
out there, you'll burn your pantsW
Communication between him and CEN
tral was cut off Immediately.

Must Stand Criticism.

The court at Somerset with Judge
Martin Bell of Blair county, on the
bench, decision was rendered in the
libel lease against newspaper that
seems destined to act as precedent in
like cases that may be instituted here
after in other courts of the state.
Editor A. Kendall of the Meyersdale
Republican was sued by Clinton A.
Wagner, one time opposition party
candidate for prothonotary, who al
legged the editor had published defama-
tory matter about him during the cam
paign.
Judge Bell took the case from the
Jury and decided the case in favor OF
Kendall. The court held that when
citizen becomes a candidate for Office,
paper opposed to him may voice its
sentiments with impunity.
According to the courts decision
any candidate will hereafter be com
PEELED to stand the fire of merciless
criticism.

Not q Debatable Issue.

The Democratic candidate for State
Treasurer indicates that it is his pur-
pose to make the issue in the campaign
the retention of representative of the
minority party on the Board of Public
Grounds and Buildings, says Philadel
phia Press.
If there is any issue concerning that
board it is the clearing its membership
of the auditing and accounting officers
of the State, and that would take away
the State Treasurer as it should. The
Capitol Investigating Commission
recommend that in its report to the
Governor, and there is very little doubt
that Governor Stuart will recommend
it in his message to the next Legisla-
ture.
The proposition was met with practi-
cally unanimous favor. Every Demo
cratic newspaper, as well as every Re-
publican newspaper which has COM
mented on it, has given it approval.
1t is obviously wrong that officials who
| are to pass upon contract work shall
be in a position to make the contracts,
audit the accounts and pay them. 1t
affords no check of any kind where the
| officials may be careless or dishonest.
That this will be radically changed by
the next Legislature can be set down
as very certain.
Meantime it is not question of put
ting Democrat on the board. What
is wanted is that the board, as long as
it must exist, shall be constituted of
vigilant, careful men who have popular
confidence. Does not Governor Stuart
meet that requirement? Does not
Auditor General Young meet itf
Would not John o. Sheath as State
Treasurer meet it completely? Not
even the most virulent of the opposi-
ton organs has assumed to question
the personal integrity of Mr.. Sheath,
and those who are honest with them
selves have frankly conceded both his
independence and unimpeachable char
acter.
AiciuinS dii cuo DoihocfdCo oieihl ioi
their candidate he could do no more to
protect the interest of the State, II
elected, than the Republican nominees
will do, and Mr.. Sheatz's public record
is justly accepted as assurance of that.
Our Democratic friends evidently mis-
understand the present conditions.
Every demand for watchful, faithful,
honest management of the State fin
ances will be met by the election of Mr..
Sheath.
The Democratic candidates pretend
! ed issue has nothing to stand upon in
the face of such facts. When the peo-
pie can put man like Mr.. Sheath on
guard they have nothing to fear.

Beware of Ointments for Catarrh that
Contain 1ercury.

AS mercury will surely destroy the
sense of smell and completely derange
the whole system when entering it
through the mucous surfaces. Such
articles should never be used except on
prescription from reputable physicians,
as the damage they will do is ten fold
to the good you can possibly derive
from them. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. j. Cheney q Co.,
Toledo, o., contains no mercury, and
is taken internally, acting directly up
on the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system. In buying Halls catarrh
Cure be sure you get the genuine. 1t
is taken internally and made in Toledo,
Ohio, by F. J. Cheney & Go. Testi-
monials free. Sold by Druggists.
Price, 75c per bottle. Take HalPs

Correct Game Laws.

To perhaps none but the leading |
sportsman of the state, are the game
laws for this fall clear, in view OF the
changes made by the last legislature.
A number of incorrect reports relative
to the true laws have been circulating,
and as the open season is only about
two weeks away, it is time for the
huntsman of the state to know exactly
what they can and cannot do. The
open season for number ofgame birds
and creatures have been extended,
while the law relative to killing of deer
have been made more stringent than
ever before. 1t will this season take
an expert to kill his deer in compli-
ance with the law, so a little practice
before hand would not come amiss.
The open season for killing game is
as follows:
Plover, number unlimited, July Is to
December /.
Doves and shore birds, number un-
limited, September to January /.
Wild water fowls, umber unlimited
September to April 10, without inter-
mission.
Snipe, number unlimited, September
to May /.
Pheasants, five in one day, twenty in
one week, fifty in one season, October
to December 1.
Squirrels, six in one day, October 1
to December 1.
Bears, unlimited, October to March
Wild turkeys, one in day, four in a
season, October 15 to December 1.
Rabbits, unlimited, October 10 to
December /. The penalty for taking
a rabbit out of hole has been removed
and it is now lawful to take them in
any manner during the season.
Quail or partridge, ten in one day,
forty in one week, seventy-five in one
season, November l to December 1.
The quail season is unchanged, but ad-
diUional provision for the protection OF
birds are made 1t is unlawful to shoot
or injure quails when punched upon
LhO BlOuhuy VI W Mill obS 6uihO Oii NE
at night; or to kill any game at all by
the use of any gun other than the
kind usually raised at arms length and
fired from the shoulder.
The change in the deer law is impor
tant. The open season is from Novem
ber 15 to December 1, but hereafter
only male deer with horns may be kill
ed. Does and fawns are absolutely
protected. This became necessary by
reason of the fact that the number o
hunters is so great that deer in season
are practically driven from cover t.
cover as if they were pursued by dogs
The penalty for violation of the law il
500 or a day in Jail for each dollar
1t will be safest to leave the head ol
the carcass to prove the deer killed ha'
horns

The Dull Child.

Among other interesting topics dis
cussed at the Round Table conference
of city teachers recently was one con-
cerning the dull child, says the AL
toona Tribune. Parents and teachers
know that he exists. Frequently he
tortures them. No less frequently
they torture him. He is at their mer-
cy. When he becomes unbearable
they do something. But he, poor
chap, has no refuge from the burden
of adult boredom. He is obliged to
submit to overwhelming authority and
power.
1t was brought out by the discussion
that the dull lad is not always the
feeble and profitless man. One of the
speakers half humorously, half seri-
ously, deprecated the existence of un-
usual "brightness" among children.
The infant genius usually disappoints
the hopes of his friends. He becomes
an adult inanity. On the other hand
the blockhead of the schools often be-
comes the man of affairs. In such
cases it may have been the teacher
who was the blockhead. Such things
are not impossible.
The child whom the ignorant parents
or the careless teacher puts down as a
dullard may simply be misunderstood.
There are children whose timidity and
sensitiveness throw them into a per-
feet stuper of fright when menaced
by punishment for failure to obey a
misunderstood or unheard command.
The superficial and impatient adult
who has to deal with them declares
they are stubborn and rebellious, de-
serving severe punishment. If the
punishment follow, the child may be
thrown into paroxmys of fright. 1t is
a fearful thing to deal unjustly with
a timid and sensitive little one who
may also be suffering from defective
hearing or imperfect vision.

Preferred by Business Men.

Young men and women trained in
the Rochester Business Institute are
sought for positions in the best busi-
ness houses. Thoroughly parpared as
sistants are what business men con-
stantly need, and they have learned
from experience that R. B. l., gradn-
ates have the requisite preparation.
1907 calls for graduates to fill excellent
places within single year speaks
volumes for the reputation of the
school.

The sixth annual convention of the
County Sunday School Association

Found q Watch.

Tuesday morning while F. P. Rentz
was milking his COW he noticed some
thing bright on the barn floor and upon
picking it up discovered it to be
watch. How it came there is somewhat
of mystery, but it is supposed that
some of our midnight prowlers had
been in the barn and lost it.
