charge of the affair. The street
parade in the morning was especially
good, and came out on schedule
time.
There was a good attendance in
the evening and a fair attendance
in the afternoon. The trained seals
was one of the really big acts of
the show, and the performing
elephants was another. Each were
the best in their particular line ever
shown here.
The lion and lionesses went
through their acts in good shape,
but they had most too mild an
gentle expressions to raise the
element of excitement.
There were dogs, bears, ponies,
horses, a camel, and other animals,
all of which performed very
creditably, and there were tight
wire and trapeze acts executed in
a clever manner.
The usual side shows were in
evidence, outside the main tent,
and there was an ample supply of
candy, pop corn and other things to
eat inside the main tent, and way
the bankers sold it at about double
the usual prices, was worth watch
ing.
LaTena's show will go into winter
quarters about the middle of Octo-
Der. and it is probably the last circus
of the season that will visit this city.

LAST CIRCUS OF
SEASON HERE
LaTena's Wild Animal Show Made
a Busy Day. for Lambertville
People Of All Ages.
ANIMALS SHOWED GOOD CARE

LaTena's Wild Animal Circus has
been, showed and gone, and the
small boy was made happy for a
brief time, and some of his
numerous relatives enjoyed it too
all on his account, of course.
The show was unloaded at the
Coryell Street siding, last Friday,
and the one thing that impressed
many people forcibly was the good
appearance of the horses and other
animals, all of which appeared free
from any effects of i'll usage or
over-usage.
S. P. c. A. Officer Wallace P.
Thornton made an inspection of
the animals, but could find nothing
that would warrant any criticism,
but one horse having a sore, and
that one was not used. The horses
were in the care of Charles S. Hale,
of Cleveland, Ohio, who was a
former United States Army cavalry
man and widely experienced in
their handling.
Andrew Downie, the proprietor
of the show, was here, and in active

the school house hill, won more
blue ribbons at the recent Solebury
Farmers Exhibit than any other
person from this city, all on his
fine display of apples.
One of the specially interesting
things about these apples are that
they are grown along lines very
similar to that employed in the
great orchards of Oregon and
Washington, and with about the
same results.

DEATHBED REPENTENCE

INDICATIONS are that a desire for
continued power at Washington is
/ prompting President Wilson and
his Democratic supporters to a
rather late consideration of the prac-
tical as well as the theoretical side
of the government entrusted to them,
and as a result we are witnessing
strange reversals of some supposedly
fundamental policies of the admins
trstion.
Tomorrow President Wilson will
go before Congress with a brief mes
sage urging economy in expenditure,
and bare of recommendations for the
enactment of experimental legislation.
This sharp command to fright about

thrown to the voters with the vain
hope of staying the rising indigna-

The State of Pennsylvania has cut
and marketed millions of dollars
worth of pine, spruce, hemlock, maple,
oak, chestnut, etc, and has wasted
her resources as other States have.
Our tanneries have used hundreds
of thousands of cords of hemlock tan
bark to make leather for the soles of
millions of people.
We and our forefathers have used
the trees which covered a thousand
hills and required centuries to grow.
Billions of feet of good lumber
which once grew on our mountains
have been destroyed by fires, most of
which have been caused by such care
lessness and heedlessness as we usu-
ally call accident. We have disre-
garded the conservation of our forests
and the purity of our water supply.
The problem of our supply of lum-
ber is a vital one to the prosperity Of
the State and Nation.

Are quite the same as mine'
When they are put to bed each night
At seven, eight or nine.
No matter how much noise is made
with sounds both loud and queer
it all in peaceful sleep
Each one will pound his ear.
Rut when my bed time comes aroun'
To my bedroom l go
And move around. while disrobe
quite softly on tiptoe.
But. gee, despite my quietness'
Each night to my dismay
Both kids wake up the moment I'm
About to hit the hay.

Some night, 1t would be fine
But meanwhile I am wondering IL
Your kids are just like mine.

THE WORK OF RELIEF

"HE steamer Thelma, which car
ried a cargo of food purchased
= in part with contributions of
cash made by generous readers
of the Telegraph, has arrived at Rot
terdam, from which port the sup
plies it carried are being rushed to
the relief committee in Belgium. BY
the time this is in type, hungry little
Belgian boys and girls, old men and
homeless women will be supping COM
fortably on the good things provided
by the people of this city and Phila-
delphia.
The system of food distribution in
Belgium has been systematized by a
well-organized commission of men
and women who have devoted them
selves to the gigantic task of relief.
Tickets are issued emitting holders to
two meals a day. Those who have
money must pay for their food; to the
destitute the tickets are given without
charge. By taxing those who can
pay, the money for food is indefinitely
multiplied, so that the relief work is
greatly broadened and extended.
That the need is great and growing
is evident from the following nara
graph of a statement issued on Fri
day by Herbert Clark Hoover, chair
man of the American Commission for
Relief in Belgium:
1 do not know that history pre-
sents any parallel of a population
of 100000 people surrounded by a
ring of steel and utterly unable by
any conceivable effort of their own
to save themselves. Seventy per
cent. of these 100000 people are
idle and destitute. In Brussels 81
600 babies are dependent for their
daily nourishment on public charity.
We must continue to give until the
demand has been fully met and it is
gratifying to note that the haphazard
generosity of the early days of the
war is giving way to organized effort.
At a meeting to-day a Harrisburg
committee will be formed to look
after emergency relief both in Bel
gium and in this city. Contributions
may be given for any purpose the
donor prefers and the committee will
see that they reach their destination
without delay. A splendid feature of
this relief work will be that Harris
burg women who need work will be
permitted to make garments for the
war sufferers and will thus be able to
earn money to meet their own needs.

cuted under the Mann white

of ill-treating her, or on the girl her
self, who in turn has been indicted on
a charge of attempting to bribe a
federal official with a share of the
$4,000 she hoped to wiring from her
erstwhile admirer. The suit and
counter-suit illustrate a laxity of
morals on both sides. One appears to
have been as guilty as the other. Jus
tice will be well served if both receive
the limit of the law provided for such
offenses.

Merchants have been complaining
that trade has not been up to former
