Henry Reed, of Philadelphia, but only one will be called. It is reported that General Weyler expects to end the Cuban war in a year and a-balf. "Blessed are they who expect nothing, for they shall not be The weather bureau has entered into a long explanation of the black snow which recently fell in Chicago. The public has been content to ascribe the coloring to the soot in the atmosphere out there. Maitie Pouillet, one of the most eminent lawgers in Paris, has begun an original work of charity.

He gives sittings at the Palais de Justice at which he offers legal advice, free of charge, to persons who cannot afford to employ lawyers. May his tribe increase. The Archduchess Maria Theresa of Austria is said to be the strongest woman in the world outside of a circus. She can lift an ordinary man with one hand. It is unnecessary to remark, says the New York "World, that her five children obey her to the letter.

A hatchet beating the name of Robert La Salle, the French explorer, the motto "Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam, and the date 1655, was found imbedded in the trunk of a tree which was cut down in Southern Cheboygan county, a few days ago. The wood of the tree had grown completely around the hatchet, and there was no sign of its presence on the outside. The date is probably that of the manufacture of the hatchet. The motto is that of the Jesuit order to which La Salle belonged. Samuel Edison, father of Thomas A.

Edison, the great electrician, died on Wednesday at Norwalk, Ohio. Mr. Edison was born in Nova Scotia ninety-one yeurs ago, and in early manhood moved to. Milan, Erie county, Ohio, going from that place to Fort Gratiot, now Port Huron, where he lived for more than forty years. He was married in 1828.

He was father of seven children, Thomas being the youngest. Mr. Edison was over six feet tall and strong. At the age of seventy-six he ran and jumped twenty feet from a landing on to a ferry- An interesting story is being told in Washington regarding M. Patenotre, the French Ambassador.

After congress passed the law empowering the president to send ambassadors to such countries as would raise the rank of their representatives, Sir Julian Pauncefote was the first to inform the president of the intention of his country to make him an ambassador. M. Patenotre conceived the ambition to be the dean of the ambassadors and. communicated it to his home government, and his commission arrived before Sir Julian's. He went to the state department in the hope of immediate recognition as the first ambassador to this country.

He was told that Sir Julian bad anticipated him by informing the department of the action of his government. He was angry, and wrote to the president requesting his intervention. He received instead a chilly letter from Gresham. ROCKVILLE. THE SALVATIONISTS.

The troubles in the Salvation Army have been thoroughly ventilated in the papers within the past week or two. Whether the organization will be rent in twain remains to be seen. While the peculiar methods of the army, when it first appeared in this country, excited considerable astonishment and mirth, its members have gradually won their way into the regard of the people, especially in the larger cities, where in the purlieus the agencies of the Salvationists have accomplished much good. Many of the fallen and friendless have been rescued from the gutter and brothel and assisted to a plane of better life. There have been thousands of such cases, and hence after a little while the army had not need to ask for public tolerance or police assistance.

Success has been achieved, the organization has become strong, the esteem of the public has been gained, and now in creeps a mischievous dissension, which must greatly impair if not gradually dissolve the army. The cause of this seems to be in the Booth family, and to be largely due to jealousy. The commanding general in England seemingly out of humor with his son Ballington and the latter's wife, Mrs. Maud Booth, and is sternly disposed to resent the extraordinary influence they have acquired over the American branch of the organization. The senior Booth is said to possess an irascible temper, and has not hesitated to make his displeasure known in ways more emphatic than are usual in polite society.

The principal fault that the commanding general seems to find with the conduct of the army on this side of the Atlantic is its Americanism. But what else could bave been expected? Even John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, was not in sympathy with Francis Asbury when he became the first bishop really of American Methodism. While Mr. Asbury would have done nothing to wilfully offend or estrange the Wesleys, he and his co-laborers in the American field found it absolutely necessary to depart from 1 the English methods, and what resulted in Methodism becoming one of the greatest religious powers in the world. Ballington Booth and his wife have become too American, and possibly in some way, which is not clearly defined, have got away from the original purpose of the institution as established in England.

There is a vague complaint, too, of celtain aristocratic tendencies which conflict with the primitive scheme of labor in the slums. At any rate, it is an unfortunate quarrel, and certainly the arbitrary methods of the venerable founder of the army do not seem well calculated to insure its permanent stability or future usefulness. The Philadelphia says that if Dr. E. O.

Lyte, of the Millersville state normal school, should be appointed State Superintendent of Public Instruction, he will be the second princpial of a normal school to fill the office, the first having been Rev. D. J. Waller, of Bloomsburg." If our recollection is right was a distinguished man from Lancaster county, Dr. James P.

Wickersham, who filled this position long before either. He was the first principal of the Millersville normal school, the first established in the state, and was at the head of that institution when appointed by Governor Curtin. Professor H. P. Pratt, of Chicago, claims to have discovered in the common horseshoe magnet a power of photographing through opaque substances similar to that shown by the ray and Crookes tubes.

According to experiments made by the professor with a horseshoe magnet, laid on a sensitized photographic plate enveloped in a thick black cloth, the force of the magnet upon the concealed plate was very similar to that shown by the rays. Objects placed alongside the magnet were clearly photographed on the negative, while the shape of the magnet itself was most distinctly shown. At the annual meeting of the Grant monument association, in New York, on Wednesday, President Horace Porter, Treasurer Frederick D. Tappen and Secretary James C. Reed were re-elected.

There is now money enough in the treasury to complete the monument, and it is planned to dedicate the structure on the anniversary of General Grant's birth, April 27, 1897. A religions society of Gardiner, which was SO unwise as to go into the postage stamp collecting business. has found out that it does not pay. The pastor of the church succeeded in accumulating 91,000 stamps, which he sold for $10, but he is now kept so busy answering letters from persons who wish to know how he did it that he expects to be obliged to spend all of his hard-earned for new stamps.

Threw Away His Canes. Mr. D. Wiley, ex-postmaster of Black Creek, N. was so badly afflicted with rheumatism that he was only able to hobbie around with caves, and even then it caused bim great pain.

After using Chamberlain's Pain Balm he WaR so much improved that he threw away his canes. He says this liniment did him n.ore good than all other medicines and treatment put togetner. For sale at 50 cents per bottie by Forney Knouse, 426 Market J. N. Clark, 1111 N.
