PROF. LOWELL, the well known as
tronomer, aud his assistants announce
that they have discovered water on the
planet Mars and that The water Vapor on
the planet is present and measurable.
There has been much controversy with
reference to the atmosphere of Msrs and
Its qualities. Those scientists who
disbelieve in any life on the planet have
known that their point could be proved
II the absence of an atmosphere could
be shown, while, on the other hand,
Professor Lowell and his stsfi have been
at work seeking what evidence there
might be in favor Of an atmosphere.
Many congressman wish Mr.. Roosevelt
would abandon his proposed African trip
and 20 to Mars to settle the controversy
even if he has to don one Of Speaker
Csunon's asbestos muslin suits.

Washington, Dec. u.

hohluktOui OCCs %
There Is much speculation in congress
siopal circles as TO the ultimate result OF
the pending controversy between the
Congress aud President Roosevelt over
the use of secret service sgents. There
is no doubt Of the depth Of feeling that
has been aroused over the Presidents
ironicsl suggestion that congressman do
not want themselves aud their actions
watched, but there is still gtester irrits-
ton over the knowledge that secret ser
vice detectives have been on the trail Of
congressman, and thst the president ev-
identity intends to continue that practice.
Members of both House and Senate are
wondering what the president has up his
sleeve. They do not believe that be
would have said Whist be did 10 bis mes
cage without approaching that it would
be resented, aud they hesr that he lie
prepared 10 come hack with disclosures
of unpleasant nature to some gentlemen,
in case Congress becomes rude TO him in
it's treatment Of the subject. Just what
these disclosures will be, is what is
causing most of the speculation and,
perhaps, worriment on the raFt Of some.

POOR ACCOMMODATIONS.
The Pennsylvania Rsilroad Company

The Pennsylvania Rsilroad Company
Should Put in Toilet Rooms at Least.
One of our contemporaries made men,
zion last week OF the fact that the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company should
build new passenger station at Reyn-
oldsville or make some necessary i'm
prOvements at least. This has been
mentioned In THE STAR several times
within the past few years, and at one
time the railroad company shipped
tiling to Reynoldsville for sewerage for
closets 10 the passenger depot, but for
some reason the clofets we're not put In
and the tiling was shipped away. There
is enough travel over the P. r. r. from
Reynoldsville to entitle the town to a
larger and more modern passenger sta
tion, but II that is not built, toilet
rooms should be put in the old station,
and it could be done at comparatively
small expense. The room now used for
ticket office is large enough for two
toilet rooms and the room formerly
used for telegraph office, now vacant,
could be used for ticket office. The
company has water system OF their
own and water for the toilet rooms
could be supplied without extra ex-
pense to the railroad company. 1t is
hoped that the proper officials will take
this matter up at once and see that
toilet rooms are provided for the &C.
commodation of the patrons of the P.
II. r.

Quick Work Prevented Conflagration

Quick work on the part OF Samuel
Ressler and others prevented a disas-
trOus confiagration at the mill of the
Reynoldsville Woolen Co. early Mon
day morning. Mr.. Ressler was oiling
up machinery in the engine room and
carried an open torch to see by. The
ceiling overhead was low and in some
way caught fire from the torch. The
boards were soaked with grease and oil
and the flames spread with alarming
rapidity, a sixty-five gallon can of kerr
osene sitting very close adding to the
danger. Mr.. Ressler gave the fire
alarm and then attached small hose
and commenced fighting the fire him
self. Men living close hurried to the
scene and by their united efforts heavy
property loss was prevented.
An odd little side incident of the fire
was that James Wray, one of the citi-
zens who helped extinguish the flames,
got thoroughly drenched with water
while in the mill and after returning to
his home on First street hung up some
of his wet clothing near gas jet to
dry. 1t dried so thoroughly that in a
half hour the apparel had been reduced
to ashes and his home nearly caught
fire. Later in the day Superintendent
j. T. Evans learned of Wray's work in
saying the mill and promptly sent the
best wool shirt in the mill down TO
First street.
