Last Wednesday a steel plant worker by the name of Irvin Gearhart who boarded at the hotel, informed Mr.

Such a Day Might Well be Appointed lor Tyrone.

On the 7th of May, Chicago proposes to have a regular house cleaning. Mayor Dunne is to issue a proclamation calling ou all its citizens to take effective steps to clear up their back yards, and vacant lots they may own, and the alleys which run in the rear of their residences. At the public schools the older scholars are to be set to work daring a portion of the day in cleaning the grounds about their school houses. The city will furnish wagons to take all the matter thus collected to the dumps, and it is hoped in this manner to dispose of the large amounts of rubbish that have accumulated through the winter and earlier spring months. Whether the plan will prove successful in arrousing popular interest and co-operation remains to be seen.

But it seems to take into account one principle that might advantageously be followed out in other communities. That is the fact that responsibility for a reasonable degree of cleanliness in the streets, the alleys and the back yards does not by Gossip of Importance and Interest From the National Capital.

Chew all solid food until it is liquid and practically swallows itself. Sip and taste all liquids that have taste, such as soup and lemonade. Water has no taste, and can be swallowed immediately. Never take food while angry or worried, and only when calm. Waiting for the mood in connection with the appetite is a speedy cure for both anger and worry.

The rlonis of flir-se siruptur.il bridges, it is clauu- ed, constitute an item of constant expense in keeping them in repair. The The commissioners favor tho moie modern idea of stone bridges with concrete floors, which would necessitate little or no repair, There seems to be a combination, they say, among the contracting firms putting up structural work whereby one firm secures a contract one time and another firm another time As a result of this combination the cost of bridges is increased.

General Manager W. W. Atterbuiy's new engine has been turned out of the Altooua shop and IB now being thoroughly tested before it will be turned over for the use of that official. The engine is of the class 16-B class and is a beauty, all parts being highly finished. It was run up the mountain on Saturday and Sunday and yesterday it was given a run over the middle division to Huntingdon.

The tests are being watched by engineer Chambers, who will have sole charge of the locomotive after it has been turned over to Mr. Atturtmry. After the testa have been completed the engine will be re- tamed to the shops, all parts touched up and then it will be sent to Phila delphia. Right Rev. Jameu Henry Darlington, bishop of Harrisburg diocese of the Episcopal church, has sent letters to clergymen of his diocese asking them to take an offering on either May 13, or 20, for the purpose of rebuilding the churches, hospitals, Young Men's Christian associations and charitable institutions of devastated San Francisco.

In speaking of the situation at San Francisco, the bishop said: "The afflicted people have quite enough and more to do in arranging shelter for themselves and families.

Several days ago we published the lavt that Dwight Laurence Bathnrst, of Colorado, the direct descendant of the Earl of Bathurst, England, would to the latter place to investigate his claims. List week Mr.

Bathurst with his attorney, spent a fow days with his sister, Mrs. Christopher Miller, near Fraukliuville, and today they expected to sail from New York for England. Some years ago tho Earl of Bathurst, of England, died, leaving several million dollars, to which it is claimed, Mrs. Mila Bathurst Miller and D. L.

Bathurst are the lawful heirs. Complaints about bad mac's are common in this section. The roads are possibly no worse than usual, but the agitation for better roads has turned public attention more closely to them and excited more general comment than usual in connection therewith. Some things are always worse before they are better, and it is to be hoped that the mighty howl about bad roads presages better ones. There is lots of room for improvement, and con- dictions for effecting reform are more favorable now than ever before.

With the aid extended by the state, any progressive township has it within its power to acquire permanent improvements of this nature. By permanent improvements we mean those which last through years with very little additional expenditure for keeping them up. The old system of road building arid repairing is not much better than none at all. A little dirt and a few stones are heaped in the middle of the roadway. The mud holes are filled up, it is true, but the road is rougher than ever.

When the roughness is smoothed away by travel, the mud holes are back again at the old stand.

C. April 28, Secretary Metcalf's first report to the President on the situation in San Francisco seems to be an eminently sane and conservative statement of the situation. Like the most official accounts of great disasters, it reduces the first excessive estimate of the deathroll. But it says that it is impossible to overstate the material loss involved. The officials of the Treasury Department have not yet ceased their expressions of surprise and admiration at the saving of the San Francisco Mint with its $300,000,000 of treasure.

It is said that but for this the situation would have been much worse and more oomplicated fron. a financial standpoint than it is. But for the coin that was saved with the Mint building, it would have been impossible for the Secretary of the Treasury to have transferred $15,000,000, as he did, to the city to permit the demolished banks to resume operations. The salvation of the Mint is attributed to the presence of the two big artesian wells that give the building an independent water supply. This supply was the only reliance when the mains of the city were broken.

It raises the question whether it might not be a good investment for many large and particularly valuable buildings to have their own water supply in a similar way against a similar catastrophe. It is of course unlikely that another earthquake will speedily wipe out any other great city, but a sudden accident to the city mains with its resultant danger of a dreadful fire is a thing to which any American city might be liable at. any moment. The question of the presidential nomination has been put squarely up to the Speaker of the House and he side-stepped with a neatness that is quite characteristic. One of his home papers came out with a bootn for Mr.

Cannon for the presidency. He was shown the dispatch and at first refused to discuss it. Bnt it was pointed out that such an announcement was nuirp or less of an official declaration ami a thing that it was eminently proper to discuss. Thus appealed to the Speaker said that it was rather foolish to talk about declining a thing that had not been offered to yon, that so far as he knew there never had been a man who was offered the presidential nomination by one of the two great parties and who had declined it. But far as he was concerned, he added, he would a good deal rather be speaker than President, that there was a lot of important legislation to be framed and he would like a hand in framing it.

He bad not been bothered with the presidential bee and did not expect to be, and there he broke off the discussion. Now can anyone tell whether that is a denial or a confirma- matiou of the Presidential rumor? A considerable step in the direction of election reform was made this week when a full committee authorized a favorable report to the senate of Senator Tillinau's election bill. The report was made by Senator Forakcr and the only amendments to the bill have breu with a view to strengthening and broadening it. The Tillmun bill prohibits all national banks and corporations engaged iu inteistate and foreign oom- uieroi- or orgar.izrd under the authority -e tviit-ral from making auy contribuMcu to an election for political oince. Sover.il amendments were added to make the i ill more certain iu tone and to give it a wider scope.

They include presidential electors and state legislatures in the provisions of the bill. The penalty for violation of the measure is a tint of not more than $5,000, and there is iu ad ditiou a provision making oilicers, directors and even stockholders per serially responsible and providing for a line of not more than and a term of imprisonment. The measure is drastic enough and it looks like a measure that was intended to be -u forced. The disclosures in the auce investigation made the demand for such a law very insistent. H.
