BIRTHDAY SURPRISE.
Membership of Presbyterian Church
Make Present to Popular Pastor
Given Rocking Chair.

Wednesday evening, February 2Sth
the Presbyterian Ladies' aid enter
tanned the members of the church anC
congregation in the chapel of the
church. The seats were removed, rugs
laid and tables and chairs placed about
turning it into a very pleasant re-
ception room. Soon after o'clock q
large company was assembled and
games were at once started. Then a
program was given, consisting of vocal
solos and duets, recitations, piano
solos and piano and cornet duet.
After this came the refreshments
and then the affair was turned into a
birthday party for the pastor, Rev.
j. Jas. DePree, by Mr. Sears McHenry
presenting him rocking chair, given
by the ladies. Mr.. DePree was taken
completely by surprise, but accepted
the gift IN a gracious and feeling man
ner. The goth is really Mr.. Degrees
birthday, thus cutting him out of the
usual allowance. The occasion is
thus the more to be remembered. At
1890 the guests departed, voting it a
most delightful evening. Rev. DePree
is deservedly popular with his people
and they were glad to give him this
token.

The Copper In a Cont.

A penny is made from almost chem
lcally pure copper, which Is obtained
by the new electric methods. Formerly
the refining Of copper was an expen-
sive process, but with the utilization of
electricity the expense has been ma
terially decreased. The copper is plac-
ed at one end Of tank which is filed
with water. This is called the anode
or positive pole The action Of a pow
erful electric current releases the cop
per, carries it through the water and
deposits 1t on the negative or cathode
pole. The result is what is known as
electricity" or cathode" copper. 1t
Is what pennies are made Of. While
the "electrolytic" is the purest known
copper, the flake" copper brings a
slightly higher price In the market.
This Is because there is a small amount
Of silver in all the copper from the
Lake Superior regions. 1t is so small
that 1t cannot be separated at a profit.
Silver, however, is a better conductor
Of electricity than copper, and there
fore for commercial purposes the lake
copper is In such demand that it brings
better price.-New York Press.

IF GOVERNOR WILSON loses many votes
In this district 1t will be because of the
quality Of some Of his appointments and
the conduct of his appointees, rather than
because of anything the Governor has
done personally.
Given their first opportunity at public
service at Atlantic County, Democrats on
the Tax Board and on the Oyster Board
succumbed to the alluring wiles of ,pat.
ronage and deliberately ignored one of
the greatest reform acts of the times

ago that the Democratic majority In the
County Tax Board had no right to GUST
Franklin Smith, Woodworking. conscien-
tious and capable Republican secretary,
and give the berth to a Democratic par
tizan, local Democrats were inclined to
sueer and laugh.
But the sneer and the laugh died on
their faces this week, when the State
Civil Service Commission secured an ad-
mission from the Boards counsel that
"the charge was made for political rea-
sons" and gave notice practically that
Smith would be reinstated In his position.
That was bitter pill, mild but cutting
rebuke, for the Tax Board to swallow,
and they had to gulp 1t right before con-

pected more of them,

Theatres,
CHESTNUT STREET THEATRE.


The Orpheum Players at the Chestnut
Street Theatre, Philadelphia, have some
thing of a change in their offering for
next weeks presentation in a play of
characters as seen in the West for it
dates back to the period when that section
was a real pioneer Countrywide play,
SIN Mizzouri," was written by that king
of dramatists Augustus Thomas, author of
alabama" "Arizona," ''The Witching
Hour, I" Gas Man Thinks" ETC., etc.
Mr.. Thomas Is truly the most powerful
and distinct figure among American play
wrights. For years he has been writing
in terms of vigorous, well-constructed
drama of American life. His virility, his
humor, and above all his dominant Amer
icanism, have made his countrymen listen
10 him. 'Tn Mizzouri'' has proven one
of Mr.. Thomas most characteristic western
plays.
The stery in short deals with the love
between Jim Radburn and Kate Vernon
How Kate falls in love with train robber
of the gentleman1y type named Travers,
how he has about managed to persuade
Kate to elope with him and how Jim brings
matters Alright by showing to Kate what
kind of fellow Travers really is and be-
cause of her love for Travers allows him
him in a rather awkward position with
the towns-people, for Jim is the Sheriff
of Pike County, and for awhile it appears
as If folks believed he had to do with the
robbery. Kate is won over to Jim by the
display of manly character in him, and
tells the story of how Jim for the love of
her allowed Travers to take his horse to
avoid a lynching. However, before the
close of the play everyone is extremely
happy fer having witnessed the play and
We are firmly convinced Jim did what
was right.
This very short synopsis does not do
justice to the really wonderful story, with
out the mention of the many other types
such az the village blacksmith, the town
sport Sam Fowler and Emily Radbnrn,
who, Dy the way, keeps steady company,
and Lis'beth Vernon, the tongue wagging
mother who when first married was so
jealous she wouldn't keep ''hired-girl,
but who now, when it has proven too
late, spends most of her time explaining
her willingness to take a chance. All
these and many more types will give one
the idea of the comedy element that
surely does exist.
