"Wie ordinary fellow had a hard time paying his income tax, but not .so with the United States Steel Company, which received a $35.000,000 rebate from the treasury department last Saturday. Regatdkss of the break in the stock market last fall, it seems that the big corporations made mure money than ever before. The price of stocks, it has been shown, does not have much to do with business and prosperity. A. L. Erlanger, motion picture magnate left an estate of about $75,000,000. but the records do not sliow if he left a wife, which in Uiw ase might have been considered'“a small matter. Probably so busy accumulating his fortune he didn't know whether he was married. But the woman who claims to be his wife is making a fight now for a slice of the millions. A student at Lowell observatory claims to have discovered a new planet, probably larger than earth. It is estimated to be forty-five times farther from earth than the sun and that puts the whole matter out of discussion for we are sure we

The sun if you remember is u mere 93,000,000 miles distance from the earth. Summer temperature was enjoy, ed Sunday and everyone who had an automobile was on the road. The temperature climbed to 71 degress, being the warmest day since last October. Officially spring will be here next Friday and even if Easter comes late this year this brand of weather will make us all feel that it’s time to go to work in the garden, get out the spring togs and enjoy the season. Alphonse (Scarface Al) Capone is scheduled to arrive In Chicago today after spending ten months in prison in Philadelphia. He was arrested add convicted of carrying a pistol and took his medicine without a grumble. Already threats from gangland have been made and it is rumored that everything will not be peaceful in Chicago. Authorities should clean up the mess and if the Capone gang or any other gang starts anything, it would be a good time to engage in a gun battle and have it over with. James J. Davis, secretary of labor in President Hoover's cabinet is a candidate for the republican nomintaion for U. S. senator from Pennsylvania. Mr. Davis will oppose Senator Joe Grundy, the high tariff representative, who was appointed by Governor Fisher to fill the vacancy caused by the senate's refusal to seat Senator Vare. Davis has served as secretary of labor in the last three administrations. He will be backed by the Vare organization in Philadelphia, while Grundy has the support of Secretary Mellon and the regular repubHean organization. Pennsylvania republicans are split and the two factions will battle for power n the Keystone state and rock-rib-bed republican stronglutld. In the governorship race, Gifford Pinchot s opposing the Mellon candidate, adding fuel to the flames. Complaints have been made to the sheriff that solicitors were in town Saturday, selling extracts. The vendors said they were working for an orphan's home in New I Jersey and that the profits went to this institution. The purejiaser was expected to pay half the cost of the extracts at the time of giving order, the balance to be paid when shipment arrived. We don't know why anyone would purchase xtracts from strangers. Local stores curvy thousands of bottles of this article, probably sell it cheaper than the price asked by he canvassers and'guarantee the product. We have orphans around here and if anyone feels that they shduld help unfortunates, they might donate towards a fund for such purposes. Turn these solicitors and extract sellers from your door and save your money for local purchases. Those Americans of Irish birth and Irish descent —of these latter many millions in the United States will keep in good fashion the day for many centuries consecrated to the patron saint of Erin. Os St. Patrick history and legend speak their volumes, as so long they have spoken. Scholar, priest, reformer and leader, Ireland's saint has left the imprint of his influr nee on fifteen cental les of Irish culture and the spiritual life of Irishmen the whole world around. To the Irish in America a great debt is owed by America. They have peopled the land. They have fought, on the right side of all its wars. They have helped to knit the fabric of lite state. They have bcm wanting lit no crisis, have Jack in no obligation of citizenship. They are of the bone and

The late great French astronomer, Camille Flammarion, predicted fifty-one years ago the existence of the so-called "trans-Neptunian" planet which was discovered after years of patient effort by astronomers at Lowell Observatory, Flagstaff, Artz., last Thursday, March 13. In his famous volume. “Popular Astronomy,” Flammarion published

% ® ' Above is the relative size of the i new planet as compared with that of Neptune. It and the earth are 8,000 miles in diameter. Neptune is 32,000 miles in diameter. It is fifty times as far from the sun as is our earth, so the sunlight must look to it like a pale moon, r Hs speed of revolution is one-twentieth that of the earth. While the earth revolves about the sun in one year, it takes the new planet about 300 years to revolve about the earth. Winter on the new planet, or Summer, would be about 75 years long.
