In the delightful days of yore n vote

Poor electors would not wait for an
election, but would borrow from the
candidate sums OF money, for which
they would give promissory notes.
And when the reform bill was spoken
of to some electors in Stafford they
expressed their pleasure at it and
hoped that there would be introduced
into the bill some plan for the better

The Solid Rcofed Hoo.

There are some so!id hoofed hogs in

book. The solid hoofed hog is not a

won yesterday by the locals by a score
of II to 6. The visiting team made
good impression and had it not been
for the weakening of Pitcher Horn in
the second innings, when Danville was
allowed to make eight runs, the game
would have been "a close one with the
outcome trembling in the balance.
Horn is a new man just signed by
Berwick. He halls from Tower City.
Yesterday he pitched his first game for
the car shop town, and was RESPONSE
BILE for their defeat. The rout came
during Danville's second time at bat.
Horn was landed on numerically and
after the run around had developed in
to miniature Marathon, Manager
Laubach sent Custer, who figured III
Alden's defeat on Saturday, to the res
cue. Custer succeeded in stemming
the tide but not before eight Danville
runners had crossed the pan.
Outside of the second innings the
runs came in dribs, although several
times Berwick assumed a threatening
attitude and was prevented from do
ing heavy execution by a narrow mar
gin.
Rowe was on the mound for Dan
vile, and while Berwick's safe swats
show up even with those of the home
team, the local pitcher was able to
keep them scattered and prevent heavy
scoring.

AS TO FREE MASONRY?

There is much speculation here also
as to whether King George will fol-
low the immemorial custom among
British rulers and figure actively in
Free Masonry, in which he has never
been initiated.
Grave fears are expressed here to-
day that the new king has overtaxed
his strength. He has worked prodigi-
ously since his fathers death, averag
ing only four hours sleep day. He is
busy with the affairs of state, and also
insists on arranging most of the de-
tails for the funeral
The Empress Dowager of Russia,

Duke Michael have arrived for the

SHOWS MIND OF HIS OWN.

This action shows that the new king
has mind of his own and proves the
courage as well as the impulsiveness
with which he is credited. 1t may
easily lead to the gravest possible kind
of agitation if the ultIa-Protestants
suspect that he is actuated by any
tenderness for the Catholic church
King George has taken the matter in
to his own hands and yesterday the
attorney general, at his instance, con-
suited several Catholic members of
parliament respecting the proposed
amendment to the accession oath. By
a curious turn of fate, one of the men
so consulted was Col Arthur Lynch.
the Irish member of the house who
was once sentenced to death for high
treason.

KING GEORGE
CREATES A ROW
LONDON, May II. 9

LUNDUN, May IT. :
King Georges opposition to the
anti Catholic expressions in the oath
that he must take on opening his first
parliament is likely to involve him in
his first serious row. Anti Catholics,
who form an overwhelming part of the
population, and Orangemen are already
obiecting to the slightest change in
the oath, and will bitterly oppose the
suggested parliamentary change in the
words which characterize the Catholic
mass and the abortion of the Virgin
Mary as superstitious and idola-
trous'' to are contrary to my belief, "
as is proposed.

HEARST DENIES CHARGES
AND GAYN0R REAFFIRMS
Both Issue Statements; Other Of.
fiCiaIS Follow Suit

NEW YORK, April 29.-Mayor Cay
nor and W r.. Hearst both issued
statements tonight on the issue of ver-
acity raised last night at the joint ban
quet of the Associated Pess and the
Newspaper Publishers association,
when the mayor said Mr.. Hearst was
a forger and a falsiher.
supplementary statements were is
sued by Comptroller Prendergast, for
mer Comptroller Metz, and the dis
trict attorneys office regarding rumors
that there was possibility of future
legal proceedings as a result of the
mayors address last night.
His only claim, when 1t is analyzed,
is that the American failed to print
clearly the date on a Photographic
facsimile of one of the documents in
the case" says w. r. Heart, al
though the American carried the same
date Of the same document clearly
printed in type in the text of the ar
ticle."
Hearts insists the charges made
against Mayor Gaynor were true. The
mayor reaffiirms his statements.
Clarence ]. Shearn. counsel for the
Hearst interests, called at the comp
trollers Office today and his visit
raised the instant supposton that leg
al action might result from Mayor
Gaynor's address. The district attor-
ney said tonight, however, that no
steps looking toward such action had
yet been taken through his office.
