Prytherch Scranton Does Not Mean War. The Swedish government's procla mation declaring Stockholm, Karrl skrona, Gothenburg and Farosund to be war ports and excluding therefrom all foreign warships was naturally Inter preted as meaning that war was to be waged against Norway. In fact the people of Sweden and Norway seemed to have so construed It themselves, for the dispatches inform us that the clos ing of these important ports created great excitement in both countries. It was thought to indicate that the Swed ish government was about to abandon its mild policy and inaugurate one of force. This, however, is denied by Sweden's foreign minister, who on Monday au thorized the statement that no aggres 'sive measures had been taken and that none was contemplated by the Swed ish government.

He said that the ports mentioned were closed because the Swdish squadron is holding its usual summer maneuvers near Gothenburg ths year. This hardly seems like an adequate explanation. However the dispatches say there has been no mobilization whatever, neither in Norway nor Sweden, only small contingents of the military forces under arms having been called together for the usual yearly exercises. There is no doubt, however, that the Swedes feel anything but pacific tow ard the Norwegians, and if there is no war it will not be because the former do not feel like fighting, but because they believe discretion to be the better part of valor. They must realize that in their case separation is better than union under compulsion.

Norwegian independence weakens both countries, it is true, but holding them together by force would not strengthen them to any considerable extent, since the union would be at best only a one sided affair. The Woman Suffrage Cause. Doubtless many persons think that the woman suffrage movement is petering out. Certainly, we do not hear as much about it as in time past, but that it is a dying cause is not true. On the contrary it is gaining ground, as was revealed by the reports of the officers of the National Woman Suffrage association which recently held its annual meeting at Portland, Oregon.

These reports showed that during the past year more than two hundred new societies were organized and that the total receipts of the association during the year aggregated more than twenty eight thousand dollars. There was a gain in the membership of twenty per cent. These facts make It plain that the cause of woman suffrage Is not dead or dying. The number of' agitators is Increasing, but the lack of public Interest In the movement Is not a healthy sign. Even at the present rate of increase In the membership the society It will require many years to bring a majority of the women of the coiintry into the ranks, and until that is done the demand for female suffrage will not be heeded by those who make the laws.

The women can have what they want but they must show some sort of unanimity In asking for It. Probably not one woman In a hundred wants the right to vote and the men lawmakers know It. Convert the women to the cause and it is won. Every day In Russia is worse than the Fourth of July In the United States. As usual there were enough Americans in London to get up a Fourth of July celebration Just to remind John Bull what the day means.

Louisiana has a labor famine and would like it if one hundred thousand able bodied immigrants would invade KlfV xucic in iuuiii ill villa I.UUI1 try for a lot more of people, but the irouoie wiui wie newcomers is iney win not go wnere uiey ara mom necu ed, but squat down in the congested 'districts where they are anything but welcome. James Dalrymple, the Scotchman who came over from Glasgow to tell Mayor Dunne of Chicago how to Inaugurate his scheme of municipal ownership, toid his friends at home when he got back there, that the Chicago plan would not There is as much politics to the square Inch In that city, as in any other in the world and Mr. Dalrymple Is convinced that politics and municipal ownership of public utilities make a very bad mix ture, and so they do. A Mutinous Navy. The order for the removal of all es sential parts of the machinery of all the Rusisan warships in Russian har bors reveals that the mutinous spirit has pervaded the czar's entire navy.

He can no longer trust his own sailors. This is certainly a deplorable state of affairs, but is not to be marveled at as much as some might suppose. The men have undoubtedly been treated like brutes, and at last they have rebelled and are resenting abuse. The case of the mutinous crew of the Kniaz Potemkine will illustrate what we mean. They were supplied with an insufficient quantity of food of the most wretched quality, and finally, when half starved, delegated one of their number to make a protest to the officers.

The man no sooner uttered a word of complaint than he was shot, down like a dog. Then the crew mutined, and who can blame them for doing it? There is a limit to human patience and endurance and that limit had been reached by the crew of the Potemkine. Driven to des peration, the men slew their officers, took charge of the ship, and have since defied the power of the czar. But the crews of the other Russian warships had been maltreated, too, and sympathized with their brethren on the Kntaz Potemkine to such an extent that they would not fire on the pirate, as the ship in charge of mutineers, Is now called. Then it was discovered that the whole navy was mutinous and the order for rendering the war ves sels useless by removing their machinery was issued.

What a terrible confession of impo tency on the part of the Russian government Is this order. It means that the czar no longer has sailors upon whom he can depend. And the same thing may be said of his soldiers before long. They, too, have been ill used, and the spirit of discontent Is known to have pervaded the entire army in Manchuria. It may revolt at any time and refuse to do the bidding of its commanders as a consequence of the tyranny of its officers and failure of the government to provide for its welfare.

John May's Funeral. The last sad' rites over the body of John Hay, late secretary of the Unit ed States, and world renowned as author, statesman and diplomat, will be performed at Cleveland, Ohio, today. The ceremonies will be simple, In keeping with the tastes of the man, but distinguished officials of the nation will surround the bier, paying tribute to his memory. President Roosevelt will be there, and so will Secretaries Shaw, Wilson and Metcalf; also Postmaster General Cortelyou. Elihu Root, who may succeed Mr.

Hay in office, will represent the state department, it not being possible for Assistant Secretary Pierce to leave Washington. At the same time that the funeral Is being held In Cleveland a memorial service will be conducted In the Church of the Covenant at Washington. A sad fact connected with Mr. Hay's death is that his daughter, Mrs. Payne Whitney, cannot attend the funeral.

She was on her way to London when he died and was informed of his death by wireless telegraph Sunday night, the message having been sent by Ambassador Reld. She arrived in London Monday after noon and will attend a memorial service to be held for her father at St. Paul's Cathedral this afternoon. A Good Man for the Place. It isnt' likely that government will suffer as a consequence of John F.

Wallace having been lured away from his position as chief engineer of the Panama canal by a bigger salary bait, for the man who succeeds him, John F. Stevens, has had great engineering experience. His first posi tion was that of assistant engineer of the city of Minneapolis, which he filled from 1874 to 1876, when he resigned to take up railroad work. From 1876 to 1879 he had charge of the survey work and acted as chief engineer of the Sabine Pass and Northwestern railroad. Since that time he has held the following important positions: "From 1879 to 1880, assistant en gineer of the Denver and Rio Grande railway, 1880 to 1882, assistant en gineer, Chicago, Milwaukee and St.

Paul railway; 1882 to 1886, assistant and division engineer, Canadian Paci fic railway; 1886, assistant engineer, Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul; 1887 to 1889, principal assistant engineer, Duluth, South Shore and Atlantic rail way; 1889, assistant engineer, Spokane Falls and Northern railway; 1899 to 1893, principal assistant engineer, Great Northern railway; 1893 to 1895, assistant chief engineer; 1895 to 189S, chief engineer. After engaging in railway contracting for a few months in 1899, he returned to the Great North ern as chief engineer and later was a vice president. He afterward Went to the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific railway as fourth vice president and soon became second vice president. He recently resigned this position to go to Manila with Secretary Taft to report on the feasibility of the construction of about 1,000 miles of railway In the Philippines." It will thus be seen that Mr.

Stevens THE SCR ANTON REPUBLICAN. WEDNESDAY. JULY 5, 1905. has had all the experience that should be necessary to fit him for the Important post( to which he has been assigned. He is undoubtedly the equal of Mr.

Wallace as an engineer, possibly his superior. Furthermore, it is not believed that he can be enticed away from the government's service, as Wallace was, by the offer of a bigger salary. The latter has certainly not gained anything in the public estimation by the course he has pursued, for it looks a good deal as though he had practically betrayed a trust. Mr. Stevens will be paid thirty thousand dolalrs a year by the government.

Governor Folk is having the time of his life trying to enforce his dry Sunday scheme in St. Louis, and in our judgment might as well give up the attempt. The people of that town are a thirsty crowd and will not be deprived of their drink. If you want your business to boom, advertise it. Let the people know you are on earth and anxious for patronage.

The man who sits down and waits for trade to come to him unsolicited, will have a long rest. The Geological survey reports that crude oil was produced in the United States in 1904 to the amount of 117, 063,421 barrels, valued at $101,170,466, as compared with 100,461,330 barrels valued at $94,694,050, in 1905. A drastic anti cigarette law went into effect in Wisconsin the first day of the month and the sile or gift of cigarettes by one person to another in that state is now a crime punishable by fine and imprisonment. It was a happy thought on the part of Commander Peary to christen his ship Roosevelt. There is good luck in the very name.

It stands for success. We shall know in a day or two just how sane the Fourth of July celebration, taking the country as a whole, was. A lot of noise was made yesterday in honor of the old flag and the institu tions for which it stands. As a revolutionist the Russian peas ant is no slouch of a soldier. He fights hard when he fights for his own rights.

Engineer Wallace evidently believes that riches are more to be preferred than great honor. THE ELIXIR FLIFE. From the Chicago Herald. The search for the elixir of life has not been abandoned. The modern scientist cherishes the dream of the alchemist, who believed, or pretended to believe, that there were certain sub stances which, if blended properly and taken inwardly, would make man im mortal.

We see today a Chicago scientist arguing gravely that it is not impossible for men to outlive the years of Methuselah. All that is required is to discover what the different tissues of the body need for food and to give each tissue the exact amount that is wanted. The scientist believes, as the alchemist did, that man, having eaten of the fruit of the tree of knowledge, may be able to put forth his hand and eat of the fruit of the tree of life, in spite of the flaming sword meant to keep man away from it. The learned professor says that death is caused primarily by the cessa tion of respiration. That is a solemn truth.

All that is neded to live Indefinitely Is to breathe indefinitely, and any man can do that, says the professor, who discovers the proper relation between food and his "fundamental cell substance." He must interrogate that substance and find out what it craves. Then he will have the elixir and wllll be able to baffle the hopes of his heirs. Our eating is entirely empirical," says the scientist. That is his way of stating the fact that men eat what they like when they can get it. They eat to appease their hunger and please tneir palates, and not to give each tissue the ailment It needs so that the proper reaction may ensue.

Men do eat unscientifically and will continue to do so, no matter what scheme of dietetics may be evolved by Graham ites, vegetarians, or scientists. It may be that if one tissue does not get Just the food it needs its "fundamental reaction" will cease and that that will "Incidentally ruin the rest of the body" and death will ensue. But man Is composed of Innumerable tissues, and if he were to buy and prepare his food with due regard to the requirements of each so many grains for one and so mmany for another he would have no time left In which to make love or money. He would find It less trouble to eat as his father ate and die as they died. Better sixty or seventy years of real life than an immortality devoted to a scientific dietary.

The scientist talks of immortality, but s3ys nothing of the perpetual youth or middle age that would make It desirable. Aurora's lover got from the gods the gift of eternal life, but he forgot to ask for undying youth. After old age had shriveled him up he begged for release from Immortality. It Is not enough to live. One must en Joy life, and the closest study of the chemical processes going on in the different tissues will not enable science to make life tolerable when the Psalmist's limit shall have been doubled.

Science can prolong life a little, but not indefinitely. The elixir of life Is as far beyond our reach at Is was beyond that of the men who first dreamed of It in the childhood of the race. The Chicago professor is their lineal descendant, Art Is the mirror In which Dame Na. ture beholds her faults. Girls who ent onions during their courtship are taking desperate chances.

Perhaps a woman wears tight shoes to enable her to forget her other miseries. A woman may Induce her husband to give up a had habit, but he Is reason 1 ably sure to acquire a worse one in its plaoe. ffi WYOMING dllTY TUNKHANNOCK, July 4. The committee of Pomona Grange of the Patrons of Husbandry of Wyoming county, has fixed on August24, 1905, at the grove of John W. Wrigley at the east side of Lake Carey, and the Lehigh Valley Railroad company has agreed to hold that date open and run no other excursions to the lake on that date.

Arrangements are being perfected for music and speakers, and due announcement will be made of the same. Committee, C. H. Jennings, S. R.

Brungess and J. W. Wrigley. Squire Kutz held court on Monday wherein a case of trespass was heard with Robert C. Cook as plaintiff and Norval.

W. Reynolds the This was an action, of trespass arising from the selling of a lot of personal property, household goods of Roland H. McNab by Mr. Reynolds as constable. The facts are these: McNab purchased of Cook, on a lease, goods to the of $112.50 and placed them with other goods in a house up the pike.

He was sold out at landlord's sale, his personal belongings being struck down to Jos. Wood Piatt at $25, the goods on the lease of Cook's not being sold. Cook was told by Piatt to get his goods away and not to leave them longer with McNab, as he could not pay for them. McNab moved all of the goods to rooms down In Baptist block belonging to Mrs. B.

Mott. Rent accrued and Cook began to get uneasy about his goods again, and Dershelmer, as attorney for Mrs. Mott, ordered out a landlord's warrant and then McNab began to Day up the rent. Cook was still uneasy and he Insisted on Dersheimer's going on with the sale. His plan was to sell out the goods that Piatt had bought and if that did not pay the arrears of rent then to sell his goods and he would protect.

McNab continued to pay on his rent by work and otherwise, and Cook became the more urgent and finally went to Reynolds, the constable, and fixed the date of sale for early in December. Then at the date set down for the sale, Charles Malcom Lee, attorney for Cook, adjourned the sale until December 13, afr which time the sale came on and Piatt was there and insisted on selling the goods in sight first, as there was enough in sight to pay the debt. Lee gave a written notice for the constable not to sell goods claimed by Cook. Then it was first learned by the other Interests that Cook was playing a game on the side and finally Piatt consented that his goods be sold first, and it was done and they were again bought by him. Then the other goods in the face of the notice were sold and bid in by Dersheimer for the landlord.

But during the sale the attorney for Cook, though protesting against the sale being made, urged bidders to bid at the sale. The Piatt goods McNab got, but the Cook goods were taken by Dersheimer, and although McNab had paid on the goods some eighty or ninety dollars. Cook brought a suit against the constable, and Dersheimer having given a bond is defending. At the hearing James W. Piatt represented the constable and Charles Malcolm Lee and Asa S.

Keeler the plaintiff. Between Cook and the landlord they managed to squeeze McNab beautifully. The sale of the stock of goods of Frank C. Burgess, bankrupt, took place on Friday last, and A. P.

Burgess father of Frank, became the purchaser at the sum of $4,000. The horse and other personal property were practically all bought by the same bidder at $248.35. It is the intention to close the stock of goods out in the old store room. No order has yet been made by the referee for the sale of the real estate, of which there are three pleces.viz: one lot at Ithaca, one lot at Elmlra Heights and a house and lot in Tunk hannock borough. Extra preparations have been made by the owners of the picnic grounds at Lake Carey for a proper celebration of July 4 and excursion trains on the Lehigh Valley railroad are being run today from points up and down that railroad to the lake.

There will be the usual picnic privileges, dancing and boating, swinging and steamboat riding, meals and refreshments at the FernelifTc and then music and dancing and fireworks in the evening.

Several traveling men, sitting in the lobby of a local hotel yesterday, were talking about narrow, escapes from drowning. "I saw a rescue once," said a shoe salesman, "that was very unusual.

A girl at a summer resort up North fell out of a boat into a lake. The man with her lost his pars in his confusion and drifted away from her, He couldn't swim, so he remained In the boat and yelled. A big athletic fellow, sitting on the porch of the hotel by the lake, heard the cries and ran for the lake, divesting himself of his clothes. When he jumped In the water he was without a shirt and had his shoes oft. He reached the girl as she was sinking.

The people on the bank cheered. The drowning girl grabbed the man and held him In such a way that he could not use his arms. He tried to shake her off, but couldn't. Finally he wrenched one arm loose. Then he drew back and hit that girl in the forehead with his fist Just as hard as he could.

A roar of surprise from the bank turned first Into one of anger and then Into one of admiration. The girl was knocked senseless. Grasping her by one arm, the man then swam with her to the shore. She was revived and came out all right. In explanation of his striking her the man simply said that if he had not knocked her senseless she would have drowned them both." Kansas City Times.
