Pidcock's Reunion.

The famous Pidcock family re-
union will be held again this year,
the Hunterdoi and Bucks county
members of the family gathering at
Neeley's Mills two miles below New
Hope, on Saturday, August 30th.
Raymond Stout, of this city, who is
secretary of the family's organization
is completing arrangements now for
the gathering, of which George M.
Pidcock, of Bloomsbury, is the official
head.
The Hunterdon county Pidcocks all
came from the Pennsylvania family,
whose headquarters were at what is
now known as Neeley's Mills. Their
history runs back into that of early
Bucks county settlers, and it was only
within the past few decades that part
of them emigrated to this side of the
river.
The Pidcock homestead was for a
time the headquarters for Lieut.James
Monroe, during American Revolu-
tionary days, the man who afterwards
as president of the United States pro-
mulgated the Monroe Doctrine, now
playing such a prominent part in
political discussions at Washington.
1t is expected that there will be a
large attendance at the reunion,
some of the family coming from as
far as Texas on previous occasions.

of personal experiences to speak
from.
A large number of season tickets

Mystery Of RAIN unexpIaIned.

The mysteries of rain are not yet
cleared away. The forces of electric
ity, of magnetism, of radio activity, of
ultra violet light and all the other
agencies which may collaborate In the
production of downpour of rain are
very obscure.
We know from Holy Writ that the
wind bloweth where II listeth. Moth
ing whatever can be more expressive
of the capricious and lawless char
acter of the wind. And wind and rain
come together; and the changes OF
temperature make what we call
weather. In the South Sea Islands the
natives have no word which means
weather as the atmospheric condl-
tons never change. The vast ma
jority of human beings are in contrast
and unending conflict with the wealth
er. Hence the universal interest in
its causes, whether the noise and the
smoke of battle fields or the ashes
from volcanoes or from the changes
Of temperature produced by vast con-
fiagratIons, such as are witnessed
when a city is consumed In flames.

Aged Woman Nearly Burns


Belfast and helpless as she had
been for years, Mrs. Joseph Siddons,
an aged resident of Buckingham. had
the awful experience Tuesday after
noon of realizing that death in the
form of flames and suffocating smoke
was creeping on her rapidly as she
lay in her burning home her aged and
feeble husband unable to rescue and
his cries for help unheard.
As she lay there with the smoke
so thick she was invisible, George King
a colored man working on the Ginther
property nearby, discovered that the
smoke he had seen for half an hour
was not from bonfire but the Siddon
home and that Mrs. Siddons was help
less and unattended except by her
aged husband, he rushed to the scene,
into the burning house, and was able
to find her and carry her to a place
of safety.
Except for the nervous shock, Mrs.
Siddons was uninjured, but the flames
were only separated from her by a
partition.
Close to $1,000 in damage was done
to the house which was partly saved
by the Doylestown Fire Company.

CRATER IMMENSE IN SIZE
Extinct Volcano of Haleakala, in Ha.
waiian Islands, Is One of the
Worlds Wonders.

The Hawaiian islands possess an
extinct volcano so immense that
large city could be set down inside
the crater. II is ninety-seven miles
around the face of Haleakala. twenty
miles around the crater walls, ana
10000 feet to the top. The crest was
ages ago blasted out to depth of
5000 feet. and flung aside in a series
of eruptions. streying the mountain
with powders, lava and ASH
Within the crater thus formed. a
great cone and a number of smaller
ones can be seen. It is so far down to
the floor of the crater that bowler
pushed In seems to fall In empty
space. The crash of Its landing is
never heard.
The view from the crater of Mt
HaleakaIa is accounted one of the
most wonderful In the world. The
green fields Of the island and the blue
Pacific are spread out before the OBJ
server like a mighty map.
At 10000 feet above sea level natur-
ent. The stars look larger and bright
err; the moons path is more clearly
defined, and Its rays give a stronger
light than they do at low altitude.
At dawn a procession Of clouds rolls
swiftly past like a foandng river tor
rent thousands of feet below. Then
the rising sun tints clouds and crater
with steadily deepening colors until
II is broad daylight and the clouds
fade into mist.
Standing by the crater Of Haleakala
at sunrise you perhaps recall the old
Hawaiian myth which goes back to
the beginning of things. At that time
says the story, the god Maui imprison-
ed the sun in the hollow of the vol
cano and made him promise to give
light and heat to the Islands. From
this ancient myth comes the name OF
the volcano. Haleakala, house of the
sun.

DlCkMAN WILL SUPPRESS ALL
HUN MAY DAY CELEBRATIONS

Coblenz.-There will be no May Day
celebrations in the way of demonstra-
tons or mass meetings by Germans
throughout the area occupied by the
Americans. General Dickman has is
sued an order to that effect and we
shall be saved the public exhibition
Of particularly fine piece of German
propaganda. The Americans were not
unwilling at first to allow demonstra-
ton, but when they discovered the in
scriptions on banners to be carried in
the proposed procession, they prompt
1y decided May Day should pass with
out manifestations.
I'VE want just peace. We insist
on President Wilson's IA points"
These and similar demands were to
be waved as of benefit not only to the
Germans, but particularly to the
Americans. 1t is said banner which
insisted the Haar valley should re-
main German earned Intervention by
the American army command.
That all this was inspired by the
authorities in Berlin there is not the
slightest doubt.

BRIGHTER PROSPECTS APPEAR
IN THE ITALIAN SITUATION

Paris.-There is a slight rift in the
Italian cloud, which gives hope of the
clearing of the difficulties that have
arisen in the peace conference over
the Adriatic problem. Overtures for
the resumption of relations have not
come thus far from either direction,
but there are intimations from Rome
that overtures from Paris would not
be unacceptable, and would receive
every attention.
The prevailing sentiment among the
delegates, including several OF the
American delegation, is against solic-
iting a return Of the Italian represen-
tatives, and it was at first believed
that President Wilson shared this
view. Those nearest the President,
however, asserted that if Italy is dis
posed to re1inquish Fiume and accept
the compromise the president suggest
ed, he could doubtless, in the interest
Of harmony, make such friendly sug-
gestions as would permit the resump-
ton OF relations by the Italians with
out any sacrifice of dignity or self
respect.

JAPANESE QUESTION AS TO
KIAO-CHAU HAS BEEN SETTLED

Official details concerning the latest
phases Of the deliberations of the
council Of three of the peace confer
ence in Paris are somewhat obscure
It is known, however, that the. Jap
anese question concerning Kiao-Chau
has been settled. The terms of the
agreement, according to unofficial ad-
vices, involve the surrender by Ger
many of Kiao-Chau to japan, but in
due course Japan will retransfer this
stronghold on the Shantaung peninsu-
lar to China.
Likewise, it is stated, also unoffi-
cial1y, that there are indications that
the council of three has looked with
favor upon the request of the Be1gians
for an immediate advance on their
share of the indemnity which Ger
many is to pay in reparation for dam
ages and given the delegates salts
factory assurances that the money will
be forthcoming for the Be1gians to
begin the reconstruction of the coun-
try overrun by the Germans.
