JUDGE BRuMM
WON'T RESIGN
Says Political Enemies Testi-
fled Against Him.

Pottsville, Pa, April 9.-Judge c. N.
Brumm laughingly denied published
statements that he intends to resign
from the bench because his col
leagues testified that he was untitled
by temperament for the judiciary"
A committee of the bar which is
looking after the impeachment charges
against Judge Brumm issued state
ment that the two judges whose tes-
timony was mildly against Judge
Brumm have always been regarded as
his political enemies. The testimony
of Judges R. H. Koch and MacHenry
Wilhelm was distinctly favorable to
Judge Brumm."
Because of the widespread belief in
this county that the attempt to get
Judge Brumm off the bench is the re-
suit of the enemies the judge made
when he took such firm stand in the
ballot box stuffing cases, public meet
tings have been arranged in his be-
half at st. Clair and Mahanoy City and
other towns. Twenty active poll ,icians
were imprisoned as the result of the
ballot cases.
The Allied Patriotic Societies of the
county, numbering $4,000 members,
who upheld Judge Brumm's work in
the ballot box stuf1ng cases and criti-
cfsed the attitude of Judges Bechtel
and Shay, have decided to send a COM
mittee to testify before the legisla-
tive committee when it reconvenes
and tell the committee the sentiment
of the people of the county.

Seed Corn tor Sale.

The corn offered for sale was
produced from seed corn that was
brought from the great corn belt
of Indiana last year, and planted
near Cambridge, Md, the result be-
ing highly satisfactory, and we wish
every farmer in Dorchester county
could plant some of the corn this
year. This corn has become accli-
mated, and in our judgment it
will pay handsomely to plant it. The
seed will be carefully selected, with
proper regard to male and female
ears and hand shelled. Farmers
try to improve everything on the
farm; why not improve your corn?
This corn has long ears and small
cob and stalk; natures at least 10
days earlier than our home corn.

Miss Lucy Dodge Tires Of conven.
tionaI Life In London.
London, April 9. - Miss Lucy B..
Dodge, a granddaughter of John Bige-
low, former United States minister to
France, and daughter of Mrs. Lionel
Guest, left her home in London with
a maid on April 8, leaving word that
she had become weary of convention
al existence" and desired to make her
own way in the world.
Since her disappearance her mother
and her stepfather have secured Lon
don seeking for her address, and the
affair has created widespread interest.
Mrs. Guest believes that her daugh-
ter is still in London, as she has re-
ceived several notes from her, none OF
which, however, disclosed her exact
whereabouts.
At first search was made in the
country districts, but later a note to
her mother indicated that Miss Dodge
was still in London proper.
Her parents have offered reward
for information concerning the cab
which left the Guest home with the
girl and her maid and baggage. The
posting of this offer of a reward for
the Identification and destination OF
the cab was the first intimation that
anything unusual had occurred in the
Guest household.

lie Is Suffering From Influenza, Com
pIicated by catarrh ana Fever-Re-
spends to Treatment.
Rome, April 9.-Pope Plus x. sui
fered a relapse, and his condition Is
regarded as extremely serious, al
though the Osservatore Romano, the
official organ OF the Vatican, says that
there is no ground for alarm.
Nevertheless, his physicians, Pro.es'
sor Marchiafava and DR.. Amic1, are
in constant attendance on the pontlH,
and many of the members OF the Sa-
cred College are greatly alarmed over
his condition.
After diagnosing the case. the ply
sicians issued an official statement, in
which they stated that the pope had
suffered a relapse of influenza, which
was complicated by catarrh and fever.
1t is learned Indirectly that the pom
tiff is also suffering from uraemic
crisis, with fainting fits which threaten
utter collapse, but so far this has been
combatted successfully by sub cutan-
eous injections of caffein and theo'
bromide and frequent doses OF bitter
water.
There is great anxiety over the con-
dition of the pontiff owing to his
weakness and his age, seventyeight.
A troublesome attack of catarrh Is
feared, and this is apt to develop a
bronchial character. Besides that, his
heart is weak and 1t is feared that he
may not be able to resist the hard
strain. The doctors, however, are al!
hopeful, as the pope overcame the first
crisis, which was very alarming, ana
consequently they do not exclude the
possibility of his recovery.
The Osservatore Romano, while ad-
hitting that great care and precautlon
are necessary and that it will take
long time to cure the pope's present
illness, maintains that there is nc
ground for apprehension. On the other
hand, several of the cardinals do not
conceal their anxiety as to his condi-
ton, and the diplomats assigned to
the Vatican have telegraphed the.r
governments that Cardinal Merry de'
Val, the papal secretary of state, adj
mits that the condition of the pontii
is serious.
Alarming reports are in circula ion.
The optimism Of the Vatican as re.
fiected by the statements in the eff
cial newspaper is regarded as being
in accordance with its policy of hid ne
even the slightest particulars of any
pope's sickness until he is actually
dying.
Last March, when the doctors were
alarmed at the pope's depression and
weakness, his encourage denied tina
there was any cause for anxiety and
tried to hasten the resumption of hi:
audiences SO as to rdiscredit the re.
ports
Their attitude now is due to the
orders of Plus X. that he does not wish
to alarm the faithful until his recov-
cry is hopeless, and for this reason he
has given instructions that there shall
be no public prayers for his recovery.

A Village Enigma
By Nj. QUAD
Copyright. 1918. by Associated Lit
erary Press.

1t was three years after Mrs. An
drew Wakefield became a widow that
things began to happen to disturb the
peace of mind of the town of Hooper
vile. MIR. Wakefield had been man
without ambition or energy and addict
ed to intoxicants. and the main sup
pcr: of the couple had been the earn
ings of the wife with her needle.
MIR. Wakefield sometimes complained
because he was not met on even terms
by the the best citizens. but tile wife
never complained. of her LOT. If she
expected merchants wife to associ
ate with her dresSinaker on terms of
equality she never gave utterance to
that fact And never. that any one
could recall. did she ask to he consider
ed martyr or find fault with her
husband When other wives told her
what they would do in such Il case
she sometimes smiled. but never CON-
piained After trying for years to
make her out people decided that she
was an enigma.
land what In the name of cats Is
that!" asked good old Deacon Peters
OF his wife when she applied the term
why. Moses. don't you know what
an enigma ISL"
They've invented so many darned
things in the last few years that l'm
all mixed up"
Ian enigma is thing you don't IN

WAL. Is Mrs Wakefield an enigma p
Folks say So"
"Alebbe she Is. She strikes me as q
woman VINO is waiting for something
to happen"
Something finally happened 1t wasn't
anything of great importance-just the
death of Mr. Wakefield.
Later the Widow Wakefield was left
a great sum Of money by English rela.
lives. 1t was ali In the papers. and
her lawyer confirmed it. She became
the richest woman In the state almost
In a day. And of course the query
with everybody was:
What will she do with it?"
There were events in the history of
the widow that Hooperville had not
taken cogniZance Of. She came from
an aristocratic family. At eighteen
che had fallen in love and eloped with
and wed young man who made a
worthless husband. Her father had
east her off. and she had been living
| hundreds of miles from him. She had
| felt the bitterness Of the Sights put
| upon her. but had realized that the sit
nation could not be changed for the
better by open resentment. She hadn't
| lived her real life. but a false one. and
az were interested enough to discuss
her
| When the money came the widow set
| about getting even with HOoperville
There was no malice in it. but just a
sense of satisfaction. A bridge over
the river had long been unsafe. but the
taxpayers had hung off about repairing
| it. trusting that the Lord would divert
all the accidents to other bridges.
! The widow hired Il lawyer to take
| the matter up. and the bridge was con-
| demned and replaced by a $4,000 struc-
ture. The taxpayers howled.
She hired Il surveyor to go over the
/ lines of the streets. and it was discov
cred that all the store fronts encraach
ed and that hardly fence occupied its
legal position All entertainments were
ordered removed.
