J. M. HOUGHTON, dec Hooretarv. Dow Shoe Company. THAT There is now every possible effort belug made by the soveral uharltablo soolutles, by managers of soup houses and by bunnvoleul men aud women blessed with the meaus to do work to supply the Immediate, pressing wants of the unemployed, lok and deserving poor men, women aud outlureu resnlt'iit In Harrisbnrg.

In addition to thane efforts the ulreotors of the poor have also estab lished a thorough system In holpitig Im-pBounlous aud suffering people outside their regular routine labor by oaring for paupers wllhiu the county altnsliousu, both in donating certain sums of money to suuh people, or by orders on grocers. butchers and bakora for limited supplies of goods in the line of suoh business men. No ty In the state is better organized in these respeots to rellove the wants of the poor than is llarrlsuurif. whose societies to look al ter the poor are thoroughly organized and liberally supplied with money and material to fulfill tbeir mission. While this is a faot, it must not be forgotten that it requires a dally oontributiou of all the necessaries of life to carry on this work, so that the benevolent must not oease in their contribution while the existing situation lasts In its pressure for help.

What is now imperatively demanded is a police or other offort to put an end to the frauds praotlood by knaves on the charitable. It is alleged by those who profess to know all about It, that there are kuavlsh men and women who seoura help they do not deserve, and who when they obtain an order for groceries or other food, or reoeive the goods, sell both at reduced rates, using the money thus dishonestly gotten to buy intoxioants. If this is true, it is dlsgraoelul in the highest degree, and no effort should be spared to discover the knaves guilty of the vile acts. Mr. J.

P. Blaize, an extensive real estate dealer in DesMoines, Iowa, narrowly escaped oue of the severest attacks of pneumonia while in the northern part of that state during a recent blizzard, says the Saturday Review. Mr. Blaize had occasion to drive several miles during the storm and was so thoroughly chilled that he was unable to get warm, and inside of an hour after his return he was threatened with a severe case of pneumonia or lung fover. Mr.

Blaize sent to the nearest drugstore and got a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, of which ho had often heard, and took a number of large doses. He says the effect was wonderful aud in a short time be was breathing quite easily. He kept on taking the medioine and the next day was able tooometo Des Moines. Mr. Blaize regards bis cure as simply wonder lul.

Boys as well as men run barrows, handcarts and other small vehicles occasionally heaviy loaded up aud down the stone step entrance of Capitol park by which tho risers are broken on their edges rendering the masonry very dilapidated in appearance.

The stooks of all these goods now on sale by Harrisbnrg merchants are the fullest and most carefully seleoted ever brought to the oity, whloh show how sensible it will be for people to buy at home to supply the needs of the season. At the meeting of the board of trade last night nominations for officers for the year 1891 were made, Gilbert M.

The sharpest rascals ever arraigned in any court of the country are now being tried for the commission of the adroitest crimes ever laid to the charge of men and women. Crime never took so many shapes as that in which it now appears everywhere, as well in isolated rural regions as in the most popnlar centres in the land. Educated knavery and thoroughly trained villainy are the order of evil doing of the period, baffling police, thwarting judges, and really defying all the forces of government. TUB, REI.NUEGB AS A DOMESTIC ANIMAL, When the horse was a scarce animal on the western continent, which was not so long ago comparatively, and when it was regar led as not fitted for the hard -T 1 r- i George Washiugton enoouraged the introduction of the hybrid mule as a substitute. It was an experiment which, when it was first attempted, was looked upon with distrust, but after a few years' experience the mule became popular, aud as time rolled on the breeding of the hybrid became a profitable pursuit, until now the animal is used in all parts of the western continent, and is as capable of withstanding the exhaustion pf warm 4s it is the exactions of cold climatio conditions.

Another experiment is now in course of test to substitute the horse and mule by the introduction of the reindeer in Alaska as a beast of burden to draw vehicles ot all olasses and back riding with proper saddles for the purpose. As far as these experiments have been made the reindeer proves to be in all respects the equal of the horse or mule in drawing force and power of endurance. It will yield to the discipline ot harness with as much docility as the horse or mule and has none ot the treacherous hoof tricks of either of the latter, its kicks not being as forcible as those of tho hybrid or the horse. In gait for riding purposes, it is claimed by those who use the reindeer, it is much easier for saddle back riding than is the mule, quite as fast in step, and in some instances equals the torse in many of its very best log movements. For extremely cold climate usos the reindeer will serve purpose like those to which the camel is devoted on the arid plains and deserts of Arabia both as a beast of burden, of drawing vehicles and back riding.

As this experiment is carried along in Alaska and reindeers become popular in that region, it will not be long before they are introduced In the lower latitudes of the continent until they become as popular as tho mule and horse, and will in many instances supersede each, because they are the eheaper of beasts of burden now in the servioe of man.

No tax can be more easily collected than that levied on inheritance, a form of taxation regarded with muoh favor in some of the southern states. Women do braver resistance to burglars, sneak thieves and rough tramps bent on outrage, than either olass of soouadrels receive at the hands of men. Bitter fooling in the lower house of oongress is the evidence that those who Indulge in it are iu the wrong, because the right is always advanoed by calm and considerate men.

"Why not organize a "revolution" for the Boizure and admission to tho American uulon of one of the islands of the Chiua sea as a furtherance of the jingo policy of carrying the Stars and Stripes to the antipodes.

McClure was sug. gested as the democratic candidate for congressinan-at-large at a meeting of some prominent democrats in this city last night. The story lacks conformation and partakes of the fake class of fabrications frequently set afloat among political gossips. The majority report of the committee of ways and means on the of tariff reform, made by Chairman Wilson and printed iu last evening'o Star-Independent, is so fair in statement and so lncid in argument as to command the admiration and respect of even those who differ broadly with its author. Just at this time a strike of coal miners in any part of the conntry would be as unfortunate for the business of the land as it would be disastrous for themselves.

What cannot be settled as a difference between employers and employes by arbitration is always diffioult of adjustment without serious trouble in a strike. A five per cent, blanket mortgage, to the enormous amount of 70,000,000, is to be placed on the New York and Erie railroad, to resuscitate and reorganize its now depressed affairs. This, in addition to other huge amounts of indebtedness now recorded against that road, will make a burden from which it will not recover possibly in the next fifty years, if it is accomplished even in that time.
