WHY will writers who should know better, and who doubtless do, permit their "buts" and "thats" to get at loggerheads so frequently Take a sample expression which seems to bo a pet with these offenders: There is no doubt but that Miss Blank is a very charming young woman." When a man writes such stuff, doe3 he say what he means Just the reverse. Yet how many offend in exactly this way I And it will not do to put the blame on tho shoulders of the hard pushed writer for the press. Were he the only offender, the offense might be overlooked, in view of the haste necessary in the preparation of copy for the daily issue.

But it is when the error stares at one from the clear, neat pago of a carefully printed book that the esthetic sense cries out against the offender. Up in Auburn, New York, they have very much the same soit of people we have here in Harrisburg people who go away from home to buy and then growl because their home merchants do not keep a greater and more varied stock of goods. The journals of that city urge the same remedy that is urged here buy at howe, encourage your home merchants, and you will have no occasion to complain of not having a variety from which to make your selections. Alientown real estate men are making May 1st, and not April 1st, as heretofore, the ttlroe for the expiration of leases. That is sensible.

April is too early. When will a like eh an go be made in Harrisburg Tub interest in the question who was the author of "beautiful snow" has not been very lively this winter for the same reason that it does not excite the people at the tropics. There have been more deaths in Harrisburg this week than during the same length of time at any previous period in its history. Somi men when they will not admit Th vn1nta In nrf flTV rionncni nnrir.

Take a polished metal surface of two feet or more, with a straight edge a large hand saw will answer the purpose. Take a windy day for the experiment, whether hot or cold, clear or cloudy; only let it not be in murky, rainy weather. Hold your metallic surface at right angles to the direction of the wind i. if the wind is north hold your surface east ana west, bnt instead of holding it vertical incline it about forty two degrees to the horizon, so that the wind, striking, glances and flows over the edge as the water flows over a dam. Now sight carefully along the edge some minutes at a sharply defined object, and you will see the wind pouring over the edge in graceful curves.

Make your observations carefully and you will hardly ever fail in the experiment the results are even better if the sun is obscured. Sunday In Kentucky. Clinton Democrat. Stranger There seems to be a Sunday law in this town. Resident Yes, sir.

That the Bar ha3 lost one of its most distinguished and successful members. who bore his many tri iiramhs here and in the Senate of our State with modesty, and although for some months his eloquent vnifB baa not been heard in the hall of justice, yet his well earned and gracefully worn laurels will long be remembered by his surviving brethren, Although burdened with the cares of a large nraHioo. he was uniformly urbane and re fined in his manners, and polished in his lan tmatre.

Safe in counsel and prompt ac tion, his abilities were highly appreciated by his associates and his clients. Resolved. That his life of usefulness, for the most part passed within the city of Harrisburg, and his acts in the management and furtherance of the noble charities and the church with which he was connected, speak for themselves.

He then dwelt briefly upon his admirable business qualifications. There was not a leading business enterprise in Harrisburg during his life of which he was not either the projector or prominently identified therewith.

OUR NEWPORT LETTER. One or Its Citizens Found Dead on a Rail road Track. Special Correspondence ot the Teusgraph. Newpoet, Jan. 15.

Yesterday morning's Altoona Tribune contained an item about the finding of the mangled body of a yonng man along the railtoad a short distance above that city, and that from a letter on his rjeraon the man was supposed to be Arndt. The similarity of the name and that of N. Arndt, of this place, struck a reader of the Tribune here, and by following the matter np it was discovered that a son of N. Arndt had been in Johnstown only a few days before. The editor of the Ledger took a description of the yonng man and went to Altoona to identify the body.

The body proved to be that of Charles Nehemiah Arndt, and it will be brought to JNewport on the Seashore Express and buried from the train, it having been so horribly mangled as to be unfit to be seen. Charles was aged about 20 years. Last evening Jacob Eshelman, an aged and prominent citizen of Millerstown, died of ervsiDelas in the foot, hired about 75 years.

M. Speer, of this place, who is now in that city nnder the care of a private physi cian, is not liseiv to survive tne morrow. On Friday last, after a protracted illness here, Mr. Speer was removed to New York city to be placed under the care of an emi nent physician there. Mr.

bpeer is aonciea with a nervous affection, and for several weeks has not had the proper use of his fingers. His left side is affected more greatly than any other portion of his body, and is the result of a slight stroke of paralysis re ceived about a week ago. On Monday of last week while seated at the dinner table his crms fell to his side and he has since been unable to assist himself in any way. Mr. Speer's friends think that his nervous prostration was brought about by lead ppiS' received by drinking hydrant water which stood in lead pipes, and intended to hold rain water.

It was Mr. Speer's habit to drink freely of the water, aid it now thought that the water became impregnated with Doison from the lead pipes. The word received to night of Mr. Speer's probable de mise has filled his many friends in this com munity with unspeakable regret. SUOCKINfi CASE OF CRUELTY.

Walker Blaine, the eldest son of Secretary of State Blaine, and Solicitor of the State Department, died at clock tms evening of acute pneumonia, in the thirty fifth vear of his age. Around the death bed were Secretary Blaine, Mrs.

Blaine, his brothers Emmons and James, and Miss Dodge. Mr. Blaine was taken ill with a cold at his office in the State Department last Friday morning, and was so much indisposed that he naver came came to his office afterward, At first it was thought that he had only the prevailing influenza, but his cold developed into pneumonia, which rapidly became worse. lie was not, however, thought to be in a critical condition nut.l this morning, when his symptoms would not yield to treatment During last night he was delirious, and all day he remained in the same condition except for a short time this morning, when he appeared slightly better, and was conscious for a brief time. The improvement, however, was bnt temporary.

His fever increased, his breathing became more labored, and at 3 o'clock this afternoon for the first time bii family seemed to realize his extreme critical condition. A consultation of physicians was held at 4 o'clock, and it was then decided that the patient was past medical aid. He continued to sink gradu ally after remaining unconscious for nearly twenty four hours, when the end came.

In that capacity be was frequently brought in contact witn niemoers ot me nriu oi Evarts, Choate Beaman and other eminent New York lawyers, and held his own with marvelous self poise and effect.

For ten years this confidential relation has existed between Jas. G. Blaine and his son, and, according to the statements of their intimate friends. the Secretary of State aa never in an that time had inse to regret his policy of confiding implictly in his son all matters of private and public importance.
