Prewltt Reunion.

Last Thursday amidst the 81 l.
van environments of Oil Springs,
upon a day as bright and glorious
as the records of the lives and
achievements of their noble an
cestors, the descendants of Mi
chael and Elizabeth Prewitt, the
progenitors of the Prewitt families
had another of their notable reun-
ions. With a spirit of generation
for their forebears and a tender
feeling for each other, these per-
sons are drawn together each year
in happy reunion. In the for
nation period of our grand old
State, the Prewitts we're of mate
rial aid. Their noble traits are
the heritage of their many de-
scendants, of whom there are no
better people in the world. Not
in granite and marble do they per-
petuate the memory of their fore
bearers, but by lives nobly lived.
Another characteristic of the
Prewitt family is their love for
each other. And so it is one great
occasion when the eldest reminis-
cences for the delight of the
youngest as upon the other day
when one tot wanted to hunt bear,
that he was sure lurked behind
trees as in the day when grand
father crossed the border.
The number of the descendants
has been augmented by two births,
little Misses Elizabeth Halves
Reid. and Nettie Reid Snyder,
having arrived in time to be
counted. Three marriages have
also taken place, Messrs. David S.
Gay, Walker Reid and Clifton
Prewitt, the wife of each being an
attractive addition to the list of
matrons. The picnic dinner was
a delightful feature. A long ia

Almost any day men are seen on the
ands of dollars.
But If nine hundred and ninety
nine out of every thousand persons
are honest the thousandth will some
day come along with six shooter
and hold up your office girl or your
chief clerk
The point is that while there is
really but little risk the people who
entrust their employees with large
sums of money should avoid taking
chances, If possible.
This is made all the more patent
as a result of the incident in East
Chicago yesterday when two boys.
drivers of an Adams express wagon
were caught just as they were about
to make away with $4,000 in cash.
1t is a great temptation to a weak
minded person to be given the Gus
tody of such a large sum OF money.
Employers should avoid, as much AS
possible making these temptations
too alluring.
In this connection a great deal OF
credit should be given to the five
dollar a week cash girl or the ter
dollar a week stenographer who
handles large sums Of money from
day to day and never even thinks O
being dishonest. The world is {
| pretty good old place after all.

this is true, the sidewalks will

EASTERN TOWN ELECTIONS.

Reports of city elections held in
New England cities since the general
election last November, have begun
to filter through the general news
and the results are particularly inn
lortant as they tend to show the
subsistence of the bull moose frenzy
in politics. In Quincy, Mass, they
polled 400 votes less than in Novem
Der and republican candidates made
a corresponding gain. In Waltham
their vote dropped from 1,449 for
Roosevelt to 315. while in Pittsfield
the slump was from1 1902 to 243.
In Portland, Me-, out CT 9,644
votes cast f6s mayor the bull moose
candidate secured but 500 In
November last the vote there for
Roosevelt saw 3.131. From other
municipal elections similar condi
lions are reported

NIX ON SUCH STUFF.

1t is noted with much interest and
made a great deal of by lot of
newspapers that Mr.. Roosevelt now
favors the absolute rule of the ma
jority.
We don't believe it.
If he did favor it he would remain
silent forever more
He was rejected only few weeks
ago by majority of the people OF
this country.
