It is sending out dirfcnJans, from time to time, as required, wiarning the publishers and editors eonneerted iwith it of the framlulemt dead beftlts who prey upon the newspapers for free advertising, and who would continue in their ras caily work if not exposed.

This is a prac tiCafl step that the "Telegraph" can strongly endorse. The woods are full of dead beats, bums and rasaeaJs who are trying ito beat newspapers out of adverJ tising, and it is high time the Peunsylva n3a State Edi'torSal Association denotin ces and exposes tftwm. Thoit is a' work that the decent newspapers, the journals of reputation, will help aJ'ong with at every opportunity. Keep it up. The Rev.

William X. Cleveland, late pastor of the Chaumont, N. Presby terian Church, seems to be as stubborn as his Presidential brother. He was sev i era! times invited to resign his pastor ate by the congregation, but "he hung' on until the Presbytery was compelled to give 'him his walking papers. And he said he remained solely for the good of the church.

He has won all of his fights to a finish, and he has never flinch ed when it came to a fair contest. Those people who affect to speak for the "old man" do not know him. The Republicans of the Bedford dis trict are paving the way for a Democratic Congressman in that district. Count ing delegates in and out and invoking the aid of the courts to secure fair play is not Republican by a large majority, and it generally injures the people who in dulge in it. There are other districts that are laying pipe for the same kind of trouble if the fools are not headed off.

T'ncle Chauricey Depew drifts in from the "West to say that the anti McIvinley movement on the Pacific coast has met with a chilling reception, and that the MeKinley boom is greeted with fair weather and a glad hand.

The Democratic convention at Law renceviile, Illinois, endorsed the adminis tration of Governor Altgeld. Some Dem ocratic conventions would endorse a yellow dog if it displayed Democratic pro clivities. The Lawrenceville Democrats ought to be of themselves to en dorse the aian who pardoned Anarchist murderers and then boasted of it as the proudest act of his life.

It is gravely announced that Mr. Morrison, of Illinois, takes two drinks of whisky a day. And yet that man aspires be the Democratic nominee for the Presidency. TALES OF THS TIMES. A.

New Story of the First Love of General Grant. The recent publication in an eastern paper of an affair of heart involving the boyhood days of General U. S. Grant and a well known business of Cincinnati unfolds a beautiful and romantic story illustrating the courtesy and delicate tact of the principals. A courtship that started with lo ended with firm and sincere 'friendship, which lasted a lifetime.

General Grant has been credited by the biographers as having only one love affair, and that was with Miss Julia Dent, who became his wife, and the fact that the tender passions of his heart had been kindled before seems to have escaped the pen of both historian and friend. At the Gibson House, in Cincinnati, every day about noon a venerable and aristocratic looking gentleman may be seen who has figured prominently in the riso and fall of fortune in the Queen City. For many years Samuel Walker was a successful merchant, his store being on Fifth street, In the block where the government building' now stands, and when his prop erty was condemned for the orection of the building he was paid 16,000. But in the ebb and flow of fortune times changed, and now, in his old age, when ho needs an Income, ho has to work bard to keep the wolf from the door and has an office In the Pike building, wheroho makes real estate deals on commission. This much is known of Mr.

Walker by old citizens, but few, if any, are aware cf the fact that when, in 1850, he married Miss Hannah A. Richie, the daughter of Captain Robert Richie, he married the first lady upon whom General IT. S. Grant had set bis af fections. When General Grant entered West Point, In 1830, one of his classmates was John A.

Richie, and a warm friendship existed between the two. When the usual furlough came to the class at the end of the first two years, the young cadets, Grant and Richie, repaired to their re spective homes. Young Richie, however, first exacted a promise from Grant that he would spend part of his vacation with him at his home in Cincinnati. At this time Robert Richie was a prosperous and well known owner of canal boats that plied between this city and Dayton and was rated one of the sound men financially of the Queen City. His family consisted of him self, wife, three daughters ana three sons.

John, the eldest son was appointed to West Point through tho influence or Con gressmen Tnomaa Corwin and Alexander Duncan, both fast friends of the family. Miss Hannah A. Richio was the eldest daughter and at the time a reigning belle. In the furlough referred to Cadet Grant met Miss Richie at her father's home, and a close friendship sprang up between the two. Young Grant paid assiduous court to Miss Richie during his vacation and at the end of his furlough returned to West Point with very tender feelings for the young lady.

Cadet Grant did not see Miss Richie again until he graduated irom West Point, in 1848, when he paid a visit to this city from Jefferson barracks, where he was stationed with the Fourth United States infantry, and where ho later met Miss Julia Dont, who became his wife. During Grant's absenco Samuel Walker, then a young well to do business man, paid Miss Richie court and prosecuted it with such ardor that ho soon became the chosen one, and when Grant next called on Miss Richie she informed him frankly and courteously that she was engaged to young Walker, whom Grant had met through young Kichie. tarant acceptca his fate gallantly, and Miss Richie and he parted tho best of friends, Grant returning to Jefferson barracks for duty. Just before tho Mexican war broke out Miss Richie sent for Lieutenant Grant and exacted a promise from him that ho exercise a care over her brother, Lieutenant Richie, who was extremely dashing and daring. Grant promised and fulfilled it faithfully.

Young Richie was lassoed by Mexicans and dragged to doath in 184b whilo carrying dispatches from General Worth to General Taylor. Lieutenant Grant took charge of tho effects of his com rade and forwarded his belongings with news of his death to his parents. As soon as tha war was over Lioutenant Grant visited the Richies and informed them of tho manner of his comrade's death, which was a great blow to him also, as he had learned to love Richio as a brother. In 1848 Lieutenant Grant and Miss Dent were married, and members of the Richie family wore in attendance, the intimacy Between Grant and tho Richio family be ing kept up until tho death of Captain Richie and his wife. In 1S5U toamuci Walker and Miss Richie were married, and only a combination of circumstances pro Tented Lieutenant Grant and his wife from being present ot tho wedding.

At this time Mr. Walker stood among the leading business mon of Cincinnati, but times changed, and Mr. Walker lost his wealth, and Mrs. Walker was compelled to take in boarders to meet the expenses oi living. During all these years of prosperity ana adversity General Grant was a caller at the Walker home whenever in tho city.

When he became presidont, Genoral Grant would often slip away from his hotel and call on the Walkers, saying it was a relief to get away from the hotel and the office seekers. Mr. Walker is now livmg at 114 East Eighth street, and when it was suggested to him the other day that he had "cut out" General Grant he only remarked that he won a beautiful and good woman for his wife. Then there seemed to be a mist before his eyes as he said, "She died in 1895, and I have never seen her equal as a wife and mother." Cincinnati En quirer. Using Potatoes For Fuel.

Potatoes are so cheap at Canandalgua, 2f. that farmers are throwing them away. One man is burning them in his stove and says they make a very hot and steady fire. At some auctions of farm property held lately potatoes sold at 214 cents a bushel and in many instances po bids could be secured. A farmer of Italy Hill, Penn Yan, Is disposing of his potato crop in a novel way.

He begins by having a good bod of coals in the firebox of his coal stove and then fills the feeder with potatoes, which, as they descend into the fire pot, become kiln dried and, it is claimed, throw out an excellent heat. Potatoes are worth about 92 per ton and coal 5. What Tliey Should Do.

The colonel having looked to the security of his lug gage, stepped into the chaise, the postil lions spurred their gaunt cattle, and with a great clatter ot hoots and a cheer from the bystanders, which the sight of four horses starting together was sure to make, they dashed down the street, car rying Col.

He had seen a good deal of that young lady, and in spite of his grave, stern exterior, he had been hard hit by her deep blue eyes, shaded as they were by long lashes, and surmounted by delicate but well denned eyebrows many degrees darker than her bright red brown hair by her richly fair complexion. which suggested a diet of cream and al monds, her softly curved mouth and pearly teeth, that could smile so mis chievously and sometimes so kindly also by her willowy figure, which was divinely tall and exquisitely proportioned Hut Capel. a shy, sensitive man, was kept at bay by the bright friendliness of her manner, and the amount of saucy fun which played in her eyes and on her sweetened lips. While he hesitated a callous lather. who was far too Irish to imagine the pos sibility ot any man hesitating to ask auy woman to marry him, carried her off to his remote home, and Capel was now de termined not to lose a chance if he had It had been a dull, drizzling day, but as the postillions, by dint of spurring and shoutine.

"rose" a gallon for the avenue, the sun shone out and the clouds broke up. Athgarvan was situated in a picturesque strip of country near the river Blackwater. where the scenery is more wooded than is usual in Ireland. It had a background of hills to the westward. behind which the sun was sinking, and as the avenue led up hill, the view from the castle, a larce house which belied its warlike appellation, was wide and pleas ant.

Arrived at the entrance, Capel was re ceived by a small, wizened, discontented looking man in a rusty, black suit, and a tall, loose limbed, potato faced youth in a livery worlds too wide for his unde veloped proportions. "Is Mr. Digby at home?" asked the colonel. lie is so. surr; only he's out just at present.

''But he 11 be in in a jiffy," added the footman, with a welcoming grin. Howld yer tongue, Watty, and hand down the luggage," added the butler. with an air of reproof. ftop, my man." cried Capel. 1 am not expected and I do uot like to alight.

exneetinsr to wait un his card was taken to Miss Digby. But to his surprise he heard himself at once announced, and saw, as he crossed threshold, his much admired "Irish girl" standing in the center of the room. one side of her a keen looking black and white terrier was sitting up in an attitude of begging; on the other, a young lady, with a pretty, saucy little face and piquante. turned tip nose, was kneeling a low chair, her clasped hands resting the back, which was straight and high. The last rays of the sun shone strangely through the windows on the left, and falling across the face of the young hostess, he saw that she looked startled and distressed, in short, by no means pleased see him, while her companion was smiling with a watery smile.

Capel would gladly have turned and fled: but. even as he thought. Miss Digby advanced to meet him. with a radiant look of welcome, exclaiming: "This is kind and good of you. Col.

Capel! I had idea you were in Ireland. How pleased my father will be to find you here when he comes in." "I trust you will excuse this uncere monious intrusion. Miss Digby," he returned, with a profound bow. I wrote yesterday asking leave to avail myself the hospitality Mr. Digby so kindly offered, but I find my letter was not posted.

Therefore "Dear colonel, do you think explanations necessary? It would have been had you passed by. Delany. have Col. Ca pel's luggage taken to his room. Tell Mrs.Hagen to see to if.

Let me introduce my cousin, Miss O'Grady, Col. Capel; and, Delany, bring some sherry and biscuits." Her color rose as she spoke, and Capel felt absolutely dizzy with the warmth of her reception. Delany soon appeared with sherry of very superior quality, and a lively conversation ensued, in which Capel joined with unusual fluency and pleasure. Time flew fast in this agreeable converse, and the shades of evening were closing, when Capel's attention was roused by the sound of wheels and the trampling of horses outside. "Ah! there is our good old friend!" cried Grace Digby, rising.

"We expect another visitor to day. I fear she has had a very weary journey. Mme. de Suresne had been my mother's governess and came back here after she was a widow to try and keep me in order when I was a motherless child. She has been staying away uear Mitchelstown with some friends, and is going to give us a few weeks before she returns to her son in England.

We have not seen her for a (He Was Inclined to Go and See What Manner of Woman This Was.) long time. Will you excuse me, Col. Capel. if I go to receive her? She is a dear old French lady, and speaks English won derfully well, but with an Irish accent." Capel rose and opened the door for her. Miss O'Grady had left the room a second before.

A sound of many voices all speaking together, the trampling of feet, the humping ot a heavy box, came confusedly to Capel's ear. He was inclined to go and see what manner of woman this was, but politeness restrained him. In a few minutes Miss Digby returned smiling, but paler than she was. 1 he poor, dear thing is terribly tired, and has gone to her room till dinner is ready. Nell is attending to her.

Would you like to go to yours, Col. Capel?" and Capel assented. (io He Continued.)

We had no idea that Brownie Cigars had become so necessary to the average man's comfort that he would steal them when not having money to buy. Such seems to be the case, however, and at first we were undecided whether to reduce the quality of the Brownie in order to reduce the temptation to the weak.

Having resolve to benefit the many at the risk of the few, we will still continue to make Brownie the best 5c cigar that time and money can produce. You can secure this cigar for the same money you pay for poor or indifferent cigars if you'll ask your dealer for Brownie and insist upon having them. JOHN C. HERMAN 22 NORTH THIRD STREET.
