UNCovERS SECRET
HOARDS

The best argument for q Govern.
ment savings bank is that of the need
of absolute security, especially in time
OF panic when 50 many people are
making bau matter worse by
drawing their money out of COM
mon banks and hiding it away.
During the recent panic some persons
took out large postal money orders
just to let the Government take care
OF their money until times became
less unsettled. If there had been a
Government savings bank it would
have received most of the money then
Withdrawn from the common banks,
the money would have been kept in
circulation and the force of the panic
much reduced. Even in ordinary
times a certain number of people re-
fuse to trust ordinary banks and incur
much risk and loss of interest by try
ing to hide their savings. Many
secret hoard has been lost through
fire, or rats or thieves. The Govern.
ment bank would take safe care of
money and pay little interest. 1t
would be very popular in the country
districts and would encourage the
habit of saving small but regular sums
for deposit. Except an improved sys.
TEN of parcels post, no measure is in
such general demand among those
who would like to etxend the useful
ness of the postoffice department.

PURE WATER A
LIFE-SAVER.

Allen Hazen has formulated the
theorem that Ior every death from
typhoid fever prevented by the purifi-
cation Of public water supplies, two
or three additional deaths from other
causes are prevented. To put the mat
ter upon an economic basis; If, for ex-
ample, the city of Pittsburg should by
reason of having installed a new sys-
TEN of municipal water-f1lters, pre-
vent one hundred deaths from ty-
phoid in year, two or three hundred
hundred deaths from other causes
would also be prevented by the same
means. Such a saving of life would
equal the saving of two million dol
lars instead of a half million, the loss
entailed by the typhoid deaths alone.
Professor Sedgwick and Scott Mac
Mutt, of the biological department Of
the Massachusetts, Institute of Tech
nology, state that their observations,
presently to be published in detail,
corroborate Hazen's estimate, which.
they assert, is conservative one.

THE NEW EDUCATION
IN CHINA.

One advantage which China pos
sesses over the United States Is in
the ease with which a reform can be
started and spread. In this country
nothing can be accomplished until at
least one-half the people are convinced
of the necessity of 1t; in China 1t ia
necessary to convince only the pow
ers that be and the reform is ordered
forthwith. The following instructions
recently issued make 1t clear that the
government. means business in the
matter OF extending the educational
facilities OF the empire. and that read
lily to all its parts.

THE Supreme Court in New York has
made an important ruling which ought
to do something to tame the reckless
chauffeur, or at least make the automo-
bile owner little more careful about
the sort of chauffeur he employs. 1t was
decided that the owner may be held for
the recklessness of a chauffeur, whether
or not the owner is in the car. In the
case on trial an iron worker was struck
by an automobile going at high rate
OF speed. He was given damages in the
amount of ST. 900. The defense was that
the owner of the car was not present
when the accident .happeued. On that
point the Judge said: The owner of an
automobile will sometimes take deliber-
ately chauffeur who has been known
to be reckless in his driving. A man is
presumed to intend the ordinary and
usual results of his own acts and the
owner who puts reckless chauffeur in
an automobile and sends him through
the streets, under Section 20, could
probably be found by you to be equally
guilty with the chauffeur"

inserted in the bill at the instance
of Senator Cochran, of Lycoming

The game bill, as 1t goes to the
Governor, specifies that the rabbit
shooting season shall open on Mo-
vember 1, or two weeks later than
under the present law, and close

In the fish bill, passed finally in
the closing hours of the session, the
open season is left much the same

trout between April Is, and that for
bass, pickerel, perch, Susquehanna
salmon and other game fish, between
June Is and December 1.

mum size of pickerel and Susquehan-
ma salmon is made twelve inches, and
the catch limited to twenty-five
daily.

PERJURERS SEEK PARDON.
The Famous SchOOley Will Case Not
Yet Settled.

Scranton, Pa, April 29.-A. F.
Bahman and c. F. Reidel, subscrib-
ing witnesses to the Schooley will
which was concocted by George B.
Schooley in an attempt to get hold
of the estate of the late ]. L. Craw-
ford, through their attorneys, George
S. Horn and John R. Edwards, will
petition the board of pardons at the
the meeting of the board Wednesday,
May 10, for a pardon.
District Attorney o. Brien yesterday
received notice from the board of
pardons that application had been
made by Bahman and Reidel for the
cutting down of their sentence. Mr..
stated yesterday afternoon
that he had not decided whether he
would oppose the application or not.
He had not given the matter any
thought, but he said that his mind
would be made up in day or two.
Bahman and Reidel were subscrib-
ing witnesses to will purporting to
have been made by Mr.. Crawford, by
which he left large portion of his
estate to his cousin, George R.
Schooley, of Noxen, Wyoming coun-
ty. The signature of Mr.. Crawford
was affixed to the instrument by
Schooley, who pleaded guilty to forg-
cry and was sentenced to ten years
in the penitentiary.
At the time Bahman and Reidel
were sentenced, Judge Edwards told
them there was no doubt in his mind
but that they were subjects of the
designing mind of Schooley. 1t was
the first time they were arrested and
they were previously farmers in New
Jersey. This will be argued in their
behalf before the board of pardons.

quiry of the fiscal officers of the Com

ing the States revenues, 1 am informed
by the Auditor General, in carefully

Union LOYALTY,

one thousand dollars to the firm is
being loaded on teams when the
clock strikes twelve. Immediately
every man on the job quits work
From IL to l p. m. is the dinner
hour; it is so stipulated in the
schedule. The foreman explains to
the men that the shipment will miss
it's train connection and the sale be
Cancelled If there is minutes delay
But 1t is useless to discuss the mat
ter. There is no f1exibility to the

SOME GAME LAW CHANGES.

The old condition-that a bear
could not be killed even though it
was committing mischief and dam
age-will be remedied by an
amendment to the game laws, Just
passed, which provides that Bruin
can be shot whenever he becomes
noxious; at any time, although the
legal season is from October 1 to
January l..

option OF being regarded either as

BIG GAME HUNTING.

The dispatch from Africa announcing
that Mr.. Roosevelt had had the rare
good fortune in his first hunting expedi-
ton to kill a gazelle, greatly shocked
many of his admirers, who, remember
ing his record and preachments on the
many-sided higher life, could not bring
themselves to believe that he would
wantonly butcher lovely, soft eyed
gazelle, happy and free in the glorious
liberty OF its native wilds. They remem-
bered Moore's beautiful lines

But when 1t came to know me well

and to them it was unthinkable that the
ex-president of the United States should
journey, with the eyes of the world upon
him, to. distant Africa to make victims
OF the most timid and least harmful of
four-footed creatures. If it had been a
lion or tiger that his first bullet laid low,
or hippopotamus or elephant. or even
a wild boar, his fame as a mighty hun
ter would have been greatly enhanced
but gazellel Small wonder that an
apologist claims that a later dispatch
from the dark continent declares that
the beast which bit the dust first
from the initial shot of his trusty
rifle was "an undesirable gazabo," and
that general feeling of relief followed
the announcement; but what shall be
thought of the last cablegram from Mai
robi, British East Africa, which AYERS
that on Monday last "Mr. Roosevelt had
a good days sport at the ranch of Sir
Alfred Pease, on the Athi river. He
killed Is head of mixed buck, including
two wildebeests (gnus) in "a hours.
A mixed buck is a small species of deer,
very timid and gentle in even its Wild
est state.'
1t is said that Mr.. Roosevelt objected
to having any newspaper correspondents
in his hunting party. He is wise, at
least, if not merciful.

The Permanent Value of Newspapers.

Regarding that learned prejudice
against employing newspapers as his
torical material, l wish to say that,
like all other evidence, they must be
used with care and skepticism, for
one good authority is undoubtedly
better than dozen poor ones. An
anecdote / heard years ago has been
useful to me in weighing different
historical evidence. A Pennsylvania
Dutch justice of the peace in one of
the interior townships of Ohio had
a man arraigned before him for
stealing a pig. One witness swore
that he distinctly saw the theft COM
mitted; eight swore that they never
saw the accused steal a pig, and the
verdict was worthy of Dogberry. II
