"If I bad i great amount of money," said tbe RevrMr: CathelL "I would offer a large reward for'any young man who at the ago of twenty-five years can show he has never smoked a clgaret, Tbo penalty .for those who smoked clgarets before that age would be a' button hole of asafoetlda." "Nothing can so Injure the appearance of a girl as by chewing gum In the presence of others," said the Rev. Catbell. "St. Paul condemned chewing gum when be proclaimed the doctrine of sincerity. Sincerity is made up of two words, 'sin' and 'cere' meaning 'without wax.' " , Then-departing from the humorous vein, the Rev.. Catbell told the students they should' biS "wells instead of Cisterns for knowledge "A well," be said, "is filled with moving water. A cistern contains Stored water. The minds of you students should be filled with living education adapted to the needs of your lives. You should not store away learning regardless of what you are going to do. Your minds should be sdjusted to your life work." ' ' The Rer. Mr. Catbell mentioned the lame of tbe late Allen Jay as a man who had overcome the impediment of faulty speech.

DRIVE OUT PACIFIC Adams Express Company Will Supercede It on the C. & 0. of Indiana.
ANNOUNCEMENT JUST MADE' Cincinnati, Sept, 28. The Adams Express, company will succeed the Pari do Express company to the express rights on the old C. C. a L road now the C. ' eV O. of Indiana. The change will be effective November 1. The displacing of the Pacific Ex press company will shut that company out of this city,. and the local office will be abandoned. The wagons and other local equipment will be shipped to other offices of the Pacific company In the west. The Adams Express company now operates the Pennsylvania, the Nor folk ft Western, the Louisville ft Nashville, the Queen ft Crescent, the Cincinnati, Lebanon ft Northern, and the Chesapeake ft Ohio. Tbe elimination of the Pacific Ex press company from the Cincinnati field will bring the southwestern portion of the country into quicker touch by express service. The southwest is the territory of the Pacific Express company, and the business for that section has been hauled from here to Peru, Ind., then to St. Louis and over the Gould lines Into the Southwest. This business will hereafter be ban died by the Adams company, via Mem phis, which will be a saving of 24 hours to the shipper. When seen yesterday General Agent Charles F. Barret, of the Adams Express company, declined to confirm or deny the report that his company will secure the express rights over tbe C. C. ft I He says that he will not discuss the proposed change until after formal notice has been made of It by the company Itself. A PUKE'S LOVES. The Force of the Attacks Wore Messured by His Appetite. In the late eighteenth century a Dr. Moore was tutor to tbe younr Duke of Hamilton of those days, whom be accompanied on the usual continental tour. The duke was then eighteen and was susceptible to feminine charms. He bad Just fallen a victim to tbe black eyes of a married lady when Dr. Moore made this re, r to tbe youthful peer's mother: "This Is tbe third passion the duke bas bad since we crossed tbe sen. They generally affect hi appetite, and I can make a pretty good guess at tbe height of his lore by tbe victuals be refuses to eat. A slight touch of lore puts him Immediately from legumes and alt kinds of jardlnage. If It arises a degree higher be turns up bis nose at fricassees and ragouts. Another degree and he will rather go to bed supperless than taste plain roasted veal or poulets of nny sort. This Is tbe utmost length his passion has ever come hitherto, for when he was nt tbe court with Mile. Marchenrille. though she put bim entirely from greens, ragouts and real, yet she made no impression on bis roast beef or mutton appetite. He fed plentifully upon those in spite of her charms. I intend to make a thermometer for the duke's passion with four degrees (1) greens. 2) fricassees and ragouts. (3i roast veal and fowl!. (4) plain roast mutton or beef and If ever the mercury mounts as high as tbe last I shall think tbe case alarming." Argonaut. Pawning Bank Bills. "Pawnbrokers don't think much of ten dollar bills as pledges." said the city salesman. "I saw a man pawn one the other day for $0.50. When asked why lie didn't spend his $10 Instead of soaking it for a little more than half the amount he explained that he wanted to keep that particular bill. Twice before he bad tried to keep a certain bill by giving It as security to a friend who had so many bills that he wouldn't need to spend that particular one. but both times the friend got bis money mixed and tbe keepsake was lost after alt. This time he depended upon tbe pawnbroker to tide htm over. To pawn money struck me ns a very curious proceeding, but the broker as sured me that It Is frequently done by people who attach a sentimental value to a particular bill or coin." New Tork Sun.

ARIZOIIIAIIS FLEE FROM THE QUAKES a Territory from Flagstaff to Grand Canon Is Almost Depopulated.
THE INDIANS ARE TERRIFIED TRIBAL TALCS OF ACTIVITIES OF NOW BURNED OUT CRATERS OVER 50 IN NUMBER, CAUSED . THE STAMPEDE. Flagstaff, Arts., Sept 28. Territory fifty miles square and extending from here to tbe Grand Canyon of tbe Colorado river today la practically depopulated becauso of earthquakes and rumblings, which, beginning Saturday, are steadily increasing in magnitude and violence. Indians, of whom there were many In tbe region, fled when the quakes began, terrified by sinister Imports which they Imagined to be contained in the cracking of the solid ground. Tribal tales of the ancient activities of now burned out craters, of which there are more than fifty In the re gion, hastened their flight The whites remained until their houses fell about them. J. B. Chaves, tbe first of the refu gees to reach Flagstaff, reported that his house cracked open. Others reported that volcanic stones weighing many tons had been torn from their bads and sent crashing down the mountain Bide. They refused flatly to go back for any reason. The whole district IS of volcanic origin. LARGcSt UAfflb FISH. Tho Tuna Sometimes Attains a Weight of 2,000 Pounds. Charles Frederick Holder, the California naturalist, thus describes thai remarkable fish, the tuna: "Tbe tuna is a pelagic fish, a free lance, an ocean rover, a sort of swnggeri ng musketeer of tbe sea. tbe largest of what may be termed the yane or bony fishes, attaining a maximum weight of nearly 2.000 pounds 'and an approximate length of fourteen feet or more. Such a flsb Is very exceptional, though specimens weighing 1.W0 pounds have been taken on tbe New England coast I once entered a school of such tunas in tbe Santa Catalina channel In a big launcb. Tbe school divided to port and starboard as we passed through It. and I bad a view of one or two fishes that appeared to be more than half as loug as tbe boat. "These fishes spend tbe winter in warm latitudes and migrate nortb as far aa the mouth of the St Lawrence. They are found In tbe Mediterranean and north to the Loffoden island, yet so far. the efforts of anglers, except at Santa Catalina. have failed to take tbem with tbe rod. Even here there la a stietch of but eight miles or so where tbey can be satisfactorily play ed and taken with rod and reel. "This region lies on the nortb side of Santa Catalina. from Avalon to Long point, und to the east as many more, facing tbe nortb. and generally smooth more like it Scottish loch than a fishing ground twenty miles out at sea." Chicago News. THE FRENCH DUEL Tricks That Are Invoked to Make tho Mooting Bloodless. A French paper ba been describing tbe various contrivances to Insure pis tol duels ending In "coffee for two." A favorite trick, it seems. Is to use pro JectUes that look like ordinary lead bul lets, but crumble to pieces when fired In more serious cases bullets are used of smaller caliber tliau the pistol, thu lessening their penetrating (tower. Sometimes the wad is intentionally left out. so that when the duelists face each other with the pistols held downward tbe bullets roll out. In man;, cases bullets of the right caliber unused, but only with a third of the proper powder charge, so that tbey are practically harmless. A variation of this trick Is to load with a double powder charge, which also causes tbe bullets to go wide of tbe mark. This, however. Is dangerous to tbe spectators. Again, well ' meaning seconds sometimes use tbe right bullets and the right charge, but stiffen tbe triggers so that tbe extra pressure causes tbe bullets to go wide. Perhaps tbe most amusing device is tbe use of pistols fitted . with a sort of secret safety valve, which oens when tbe weapon is loaded, so that tbe bullet drops out and only the powder charge remains. -Exchange. A Drop In Rhetoric. "I remember." said au official of tbt East Indian service, "the speech of an Anglo-Indian who was delegated by certain district to place before tbe government's notice the horrible slaughter of their stock by t'gers. A very noticeable titter could be beard in the audience when the delegate shouted very dramatically: "Mr. Chairman, the tiger is tbe most ferocious aulmal that prowls and runs at large In India. He creeps from bis lurking place at the hour of midnight, when all nature is locked In tbe arms of Morpheus, and ere the portals of the east, are unbound or bright Phoebus rises in his golden majesty whole Utters of pigs are destroyed.'"

Jordan, who has held the office for seven years. The meeting will be held in the office of County. Auditor Dcmas Coe. There are fifteen trus tees and a majority vote Is required for election of a candidate. It is probable that this is the first time that so few have been applicants for the-position. Prof. D. D. Ramsey and Prof. J. O. Edgerton took the special examination that they might be eligible for the office. However, they failed In arith metlc, according to the gradlngs of the state superintendent, and conse quently had to remain out of the race. Prof. Woolard of Hagerstown was the only one who took the special exam ination who passed. It was held last Saturday. LEFT ALL TO WIFE Property of all kinds which the late William C. Converse, a prominent at torney, possessed is given to his widow, Mrs. Ada Converse, according to the terms of the last will which was filed in the circuit court on Wednes day.

The will was made on September 10 while the deceased was in Chicago The. witnesses to the testament are Helen Smith and Mrs. Mabel C. Lieberknecht. The widow was named as executrix without bond but she preferred not to take the trust and resigned in favor of Mr. Freeman. Mr. Converse died at Chicago on Septem ber 15. ASKS FOR HEW TRIAL Setting forth the claim that the decision of the court was not support ed by the evidence and was contrary to the law, the Pennsylvania Railroad company, by its attorney, J. I. Rupe, has petitioned for a new trial in the matter of closing of alleys and high ways in Cambridge City. The com pany appealed to the court to vacate several streets in Cambridge City that it might avoid the expense of constructing viaducts. Remonstrators, In cluding the town and the telephone company, were successful, Judge Fox deciding against the company in the trial during the summer. BUSY WITH FLOATS Owing to the desire of teachers in the different district schools of the county to work on next Saturday , in preparation of floats which will appear In the Centennial parade during .the Fall Festival, the county teachers' in stitute has been postponed from next Saturday until Saturday, October Sth.

RED TAPE EXPERT I
An East Indian Clerk Whc Slumped an English Official. BEAT HIM AT HIS OWN GAME. In tho Fine Art of Circumlocution Babu -Tar Chand Made Mis Pretentious Auditor General Appear Like Rons Amateur A True Story. Tbe government offices In Whitehall are supposed to uh -red tape" prettj freely, but tbe supply In Ijondou is nothing to what 1: U In lodin. Ltt us outline briefly the true history of Babu Tara Cbaud. late of tbe subordi nate branch of tbe Indian civil service. The story is true. Babu Tara Chand was a deputy subassistant clerk tn the cutcherry of a deputy collector in tbe SwsnklDugh district of southern Bengal. Tbe in land post ago rate In India at that period was three pies, or about 1 farthing, for letters weighing one tola. One fine day when tbe officials had concluded tbe annual or biennial over haul of tbe books of the cutcherry it was discovered tbat by some unheard of turpitude one stamp of the value of three pies (1 farthing) had been unaccounted for. The stamp could be clearly traced to tbe des'; and control of Babu Tara Cband. Tbence it bad disappeared. Babu Tara Cband was not summarily dismissed; neither was he made tbe target of a criminal prosecution. Instead be received a lengthy letter on blue foolscap paper, pointing out in detail bpw certain property of . her most gracious majesty the queen empressto wit. one Indian postage stamp of the value of three pies bad been committed to bis care on a certain date and tbat up to tbe date of writ ing no adequate explanation bad been forthcoming of said postage stamp. Tbe communication fell upon tbe luckless Tara Cband like a bolt from tbe blue. It left but three courses open to bim viz: (a Resign from the service. (b Explain tbe disappearance of tbo farthing postage stamp In a manner deemed satisfactory by tbe auditor. (ci Recoup the farthing. Of these three courses it will be obvious to any person with tbe shallowest knowledge of tbe Bengali character tbat the third one (O was from the outset beyoud tbe pale of consideration. The tirst (at .was also ton terrible to contemplate. Therefore Babu Tara Cband sat down and composed a letter which was a masterpiece in its way and in which he requested to be. relieved from routine service for a period of four weeks to enable bin. to make such a search among the rec ords of tbe department, etc.. as might enable him to trace tbe missing stamp. This reasonable request was readily granted. Four weeks later Babu Tara Cband applied for a further terra of two weeka wherein to draw up a report upon tbe results of bis Investigations in pursuit of the errant postage stamp This, ha v lug passed through the eighteen or nineteen different hands necessary for such an application, was hi turn duly granted, and at the end of the fortnight Tata Cband submitted a report of 210 foolscap pages, explaining that, despite the most dillgeut efforts and Inquiries on his part, be had been unable to secure the slightest clew to the cause of the deficiency. When the department of audits and accounts hud fully digested this document and presented a report of the same in official precis to the auditor general tbe auditor general through tbe secretary of tbe assistant auditor general of tbe presidency of Bengal notified Babu Tara Cband tbat It was not wholly satisfactory and that the circumstances bearing upon tbe loss of the stamp would have to be definitely explained and proved or the deficit ot three pies would have to be made good. , Babu Tara Chand stuck to bis guns and wrote again. He wrote many times. As often as be wrote his explanations the auditor general wrote signifying his official dissatisfaction with tbe same. Eventually, one fine day about nine months subsequent to tbe discovery or the loss and some two years subse quent to Its alleged perpetration, tbe auditor geueral bis Interest In tbe matter of a farthing postage stamp being overwhelmed in a frontier war bj3ct svvi ii ultimatum to Tars

ANCIENT YUCATAN. Its Mysterious Ruins Once tho Scene of Human Saerificea. It was Cult-lien Ctiicbeu ItJta tbu magnificent, the Taj Mahal of Central America and ,tue building we were gaxing on was the most wouderful of the ruined group. As we looked tiK)ii it in the moon light we could not help feeling bow awe inspiring this colossal temple, rearing Itself 120 feet Into the air. most have been to the iint-ifiits. On tbe top of tbe pyramid still stand the crumbling ruins of h temple. It is reached by a stairway on each side of Its four sides, having l'JO steps apiece, and contains three rooms, the doorposts ot which are carved with the figures of priests, except the one facing east-x-ard. which has large pillars carved Into the forms of serpents. The heads of these are turned so that they lie flat upon tbe top ot tbe pyramid, their eye sockets still bearing traces of the rich green jade that once filled tbem. As we sat we pictured. to ourselves. tbe strange ami barbaric scenes that bad here been enacted, for if legends are to be believed It was on these flattened serpents' hends that the tyrant priests of the Itras. majestic iu theif beJeweliKl and .befeiit acred robes, tore out the palpitating hearts of their sac rificial victims after slicing open the breasts with a sllex knife. These sacrifices were probably performed in view of thousands of wor snipers of the sun deity congregated on the plains hetow, the heart after it was torn from the membranes being burned as an offering In the Inner holy of holies, while the ImkIv of tbe victim rolled down the stone steps to be socmmentaliy eaten by the people.
