The date o f the State Fair has been changed from the week beginning Aug ust 25th to the week beginning Septem ber 8th. The Worst in Years. It is reported that President Roosevelt has decided to visit Charleston, S. C., on the invitation of the Exposition man agers, which has been renewed since the nan episode. An exchange truly says : “ No repre sentative o f royalty has ever sat at such a feast as was given Prince Henry at Sherry*s in New York Wednesday even ing. It was gorgeous beyond descrip tion.** ^ Ex-Gov. Hogg, o f Texas, is in London | hobnobbing with the nobility. A few years ago, before he struck “ oil,” his mouth was largely devoted to denuncia tion of plutocrats, bloated bondholders, and aristocrats generally. Gov. Odell has signed the bill prohibit ing pigeon shooting in this State. He presented the pen with which he affixed his signature to the measure to John D. Haines, President of the State Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. It is reported that the Buffalo physi cians who attended the late President Mc Kinley at the time he was shot in Buffalo have presented their bills as follows: Dr. Mann, #25,000; Dr. Mynter, #6,000; Dr. Parks, #5,000 ; Dr. Stockington, #5,000— a total of #41,000. Great responsibility rested on these physicians, and they should be well paid. But it seems to us that #41,000 is grossly excessive. It has the look of making a national calamity a speculative opportunity. #15,000, In the aggregate, would be very liberal compen sation. Marconi has performed another mar velous feat with his wireless telegraphic system. On his voyage across the Atlan tic, from which he recently landed in New York, he kept in communication with the Cornwall station until he was 2100 miles from England, when the dis tance overcame the powers o f his appar atus to transmit signals. To prevent sus picion that he was claiming more than he actually accomplished, he had his mes- rages taken on tape, and four of them were received in the presence of officers of the ship, who certified to them in writing. The wireless system is evidently bound to be the telegraphic “ it ” of the future. The unseasonably warm weather and the rains last week caused the snow to disappear with a rush. The result has been the most disastrous floods in years. From nearly every'section of this State, Pennsylvania,'Newjersey, and elsewhere, cities and villages along the lines of rivers and their tributaries have suffered greatly, and property aggregating mil lions of dollars in value has been de stroyed. In this section the greatest damage has been done at Lyons, Ithaca, Corning, Havana, and Elmira, the low lands of some of those places having been covered with water to the depth of several feet. Railroad lines have also been damaged severely and their traffic greatly demoralized. Sections of the •main line of the New York Central, be tween Hudson and Utica, at Albany, and between the latter city and New York, have been flooded, washed out, and other wise damaged to 'an extent not equalled in many years. On the Northern Central a few miles below Elmira an iron bridge was swept away, while at Havana and elsewhere the tracks were submerged, necessitating transfers and delaying the trains for hours. The transportation of mails on this line was also discontinued for several days. The colder weather of Saturday im proved the situation, which had become very alarming, but it will be many days before normal conditions will be restored on the railroads, while many afflicted families will need aid to keep them from acute suffering. Fortunately, on account of the favor able situation, but little damage has been done in Penn Yan and vicinity. Some cellars have been more than generously supplied with water, as the result of de fective sewers and drains, ‘but that is about all. Alleged Violations by Druggists China. The Rochester Herald% in speaking of the general prosperity in the rural dis tricts, in which it claims that the trolley roads and Improved mail facilities are great factors, says: \There is another powerful Influence for suburban and rural prosperity which has been set at work, although it h. s not yet had full time to assert itself in any appreciable effect up on population. We allude to the rural free delivery service. Just as the resi dent of the small town has now more of the conveniences and comforts of life than belonged to the dweller in the city of twenty years ago, so in a few years the occupant of a rural estate will find him self served by many of the auxiliaries of business and aids to leisure and pleasure that until now have never found their way out of the cities. It is already pos sible for the farm proprietor to conduct his business at home, trusting to a mail that delivers and collects his correspond ence, saving him the labor of travel or the vexations and costs of delay.” Prince Henry has proved to be a gra cious and popular guest. He is far from being an ignoramus as regards the history of this country, which cannot be said of all foreign princes, and evidently he trav els with his eyes wide open. Therefore we do not doubt that he will return to Ger many with abiding impressions in regard to the hospitality displayed by our peo ple as well as to the greatness of our country generally. It is also certain that his visit will tend to strengthen the cor dial relations between Germany and the United States, evidences of which are even now discernible. Three of the most notable functions in the Prince’s honor were given in New York City. We refer to the meeting with the great cap tains of Industry in this country — the men who have become eminent in virtue of their inventive genius or in the mag nitude of their manufacturing industries; also the sumptuous banquet at Sherry’s, and the dinner given by the editor of the Staats Zeitung , the leading German paper In the United States, which was attended by about 200 of the more prominent edi tors of daily papers. The United States is young in years, but we do not believe that any European city could surpass these “ functional” demonstrations. At the ed itorial banquet the speeches of Editors Whitelaw Reid, of New York, and Charles Emory Smith, of Philadelphia, were re markably fine. nishes no invited by ner at the Brutal fistic encounters generally have an aftermath. The recent disgraceful encounter on the floor.of the U. S. Senate, between Senators Tillman and McLaurin, of South Carolina, fur- exception. Among those the President to the din- White House in honor ot Prince Henry was Senator Tillman, a member of the Senate Committee on Naval Affairs. After the Senate declared the South Carolina senators in contempt, President Roosevelt wisely determined that it was not fitting that Senator Till man should be present at the White Houe function, and this view was quietly made known to the Senator in the hope that he would see the propriety of not ac cepting the invitation of the President. But the Senator, with characteristic pug nacity, decided otherwise, whereupon the President was constrained to withdraw the Invitation. Thereupon the Senator considered that he had been grossly in sulted, and bo expressed himself In a pub lic letter. A few days later President Roosevelt received a communication from Lieut.-Governor Tillman, of South Carolina, a nephew of the Senator, with drawing an invitation to the President to present a sword to a South Carolina offi cer who had served with credit in the war with Spain. The presentation was to have been made on the occasion of the Presi dents contemplated visit to the Exposition at Charleston. Now, it is feared by the Ex position authorities, that the President will not visit Charleston, and they have been advised that the incident is likely to keep many Northern people away from the Exposition. Therefore they are in a solution of mind which is far from pleas- ant. The proper way out is to repudiate the act of the Lieutenant Governor, but aa this will bring down on them the wrath of the Senator and the ultra fire-eaters generally, the situation is a perplexing one to those most deeply Interested. And now Major Michael J. Jenkins, who was to have received the sword at the hands of the President, has declined to accept it on account of Lieutenant- Governor Tillman’s action. Major Jen kins Is a member of the faculty of the Bethel Military Academy at Warrenton, V ft* It is reported that President Martin, of the Imperial University o f China, after fifty-three years spent in China, has been summarily dismissed from his post, and all the other foreign professors with him, by the Chinese educational authorities. By some this action is interpreted as evi dence of the increasing hostility of China to western civilization. To ns it has more of the look o f increasing independ ence, in imitation of western methods. We do not doubt that the Boxer uprising, attended as it was by the severe punish ment of China through the united action of the great powers, will ultimately be of great nenefit to the former. The Chinese are not all fools, although they are far from being up-to-date. Their recent dis cipline is therefore likely to impress them more strongly as to their inexcus able weakness than the ordinary events of a century. Hence we should not be surprised to see China forging ahead on many lines of civilization. Her awaken ing is not likely to be as sudden and thor ough as was that of Japan, but It will come in time, and their hastening may be attrib uted to the selfish intermeddling o f other countries, which in many respects has been as unwarrantable as it has been cruel. Naturally the first evidences of such a change will be seen in the assump tion of rightful independence, such as is manifested by civilized countries, so- called. Then even this country will cease to demand open doors in China while its own are shut against the Chi nese. The Chinese are slow to learn, but they are learning, and with the acquirement of knowledge will come strength, which will enable them to protect their country from any possible combination of would- be despoilers. H orses Scarce and Valuable . . A few years ago when there were wheels in the head and all around, it was predicted that the horse, long recognized as the most intelligent and serviceable o f all animals, had had his day and must go. The prediction has not been fulfilled. Notwithstanding the extended use of the bicycle, the coming of the automobile, and the general use of electricity as a motive power, the horse is here and is likely to stay. Humans will not part with him, and it is to their sense and credit ihat they will not. The animal may be displaced by this and by that, but still there will be a demand for him. The American Agriculturist says that horse buyers are first picking up all the best horses in the country for the city markets. A few purchasers are simply buying mares and are particular to get good ones. These animals are taken to large farms and breeding establishments. The good brood mare to worth more to the farmer than she is to the city man, who expects to wear her out in harneas. In other words, the brood mare of proper type and free from blemishes, to worth lore money than she will bring unless she is bought by some breeder who can afford to pay more for her than profes sional horse buyers. It is a mistake to sell all the best mares instead of holding them. True, buyers want the beet, but if farmers will keep the beat mares the buy er will have to take the second best. If this to practiced, the farmer will be in shape to breed from first-class stock, and raise the fine horses which the market is now demanding. Commissioner Cullinau reports that for some months numerous complaints were received at the department of excise on the part of liquor dealers who have paid the tax, ranging from #800 in New York to #50 in the rural districts, that pharmacists, who pay only a nominal tax of #5 annually for the privilege of trafficking only upon the prescription of a physician, except as to the sale of alcohol for medicinal and mechanical purposes, were conducting a general traffic in illegal competition with citizens who pay an annual tax ranging between #800 and #100. As soon as the services of the special agent force could be devoted to that work, a systematic and thorough investigation of the drug traffic in all parts of the state was commenced, which has just been completed. It shows alarmingly flagrant abuses of the kind complained of In al most every city and village of this state. Evidence of the most conclusive charac ter has been reported in nearly two hun dred cases, which will be referred to the several district attorneys of the state for criminal prosecution according to section 37 o f the Liquor Tax Law, in addition to its use by the state commissioner in the enforcement of such civil remedies as he shall consider necessary to Institute in ad dition to the criminal prosecution. The commissioner will recommend an amendment to section n of the Liquor Tax Law imposing a largely increased rate of taxation upon the liquor traffic as conducted by pharmacists, in order to correct existing abuses and protect legitl-1 mate dealers against illegal and unjust competition. The total amount of annual excise taxes paid by the pharmacists found to be doing an illegal business at the nominal rate of ♦ #5 each, which authorized them to traffic only as pharmacists upon the certificate of a physician, is #940. The amount which they should have contributed annu ally by reason o f the business of trafficking as store-keepers under subdivision 2 of section 11, which the evidence secured shows they have been doing, is #74,500, a net annual loss to the tax-payers of the state of #73,560. If these abuses have ex isted since the amendment of the law in 1897, as it seems fair to suppose they have, the total net loss to the taxpayers is #367,800. Board ot Trustees . REGULAR M EETING.

The principal of the bonds now out standing i s ....................................... $61,80000 There are no other debts. IV. DEFICIENCY. This department is now self-sustaining, paying principal, interest, and expenses. It is not ex- pected there will be any deficiency during the next fiscal year, V . IMPROVBMRNTS AND EXTENSIONS. The pumps were thoroughly repaired during the past season, and are now in excellent condi tion. The pumping statiou has been cleaned and painted, and presents a neat appearance. The dwelling at the pumping station has been paint ed and papered inside. The hydrants and gate valves in the streets have all been tested the past season, and found to be in good order. The coal house should be enlarged and rebuilt, and this will doubtless be done the coming sea son. The following extensions have been made: In Lewis Avenue, 1,285 ft- and 1 hydrant. In Clinton Street, 507 ft. and 1 hydrant. In Hamilton Street, 440 ft, In Walnut Street, 316 ft. In Cornwell Street, 468 ft. In Johnson Avenue, 38 ft. In Myrtle Avenue, 346 ft. and 1 hydrant. One hydrant has also been placed on Lake Street. There are now 15^6 miles of street main and ns hydrants. The amount of water pumped from April xst, 1901, to March 1, 1902, 79,052,756 gallons. VI. OTHER FACTS, At thedate of the examination of this depart- ment, April xst, 1901, your committee reported delinquent water rentals amounting to $1,357.54, and there were also outstanding at that time un paid accounts amounting to $873 45. These ac counts have all been paid. Of the delinquent rentals there have been collected $1,474.31, and there is a prospect that something further may be realized from this source. .A t this time there are no unpaid accounts, and the delinquent water rentals ofthe current year amount to only $6 46. Although this department is now self-sustain ing, and la paying principal, interest, and ex penses, there are some who think that a certain sum should be raised each year by taxation and transferred to this department, in order that the charges for water may be lowered. If this ques- tion should be submitted to the taxpayers, and a majority should favor this method, it would then be possible to reduce the water rates In propor tion to the sum thus raised by taxation.

Weather Observer Eastman furnishes the E x p r e s s with the following state ments regarding March weather, prepared by Prof. E. B. Garriott, of the U. S. Weather Bureau: In March the storms of the middle lat itudes of the north Atlantic Ocean are more numerous, but less severe, than du ring January and February. Fresh south erly winds prevail from the British Isles to the Grand Banks, and northwest winds from the Grand Banks to the United States Coast. But little fog is encounter ed in the trans Atlantic steamship tracks. The southward movement of icebergs over the banks of Newfoundland usually begins late in February or early in March, In the West Indies severe wind storms seldom occur during the dry season, which continues from November to April. Although the wet season in the Pacific coast States of the United States contin ues from October to May, fully one-half of the annual rainfall occurs from De cember to February. In the plateau re gions the monthly rainfalls do not differ materially during the fall, winter, and spring months. Over the Great Plains which stretch from the Rocky Mountains to the Mississippi River, the monthly rainfall increases from February to June. East o f the Mississippi the differences in the monthly rainfalls are not conspicuous except that there is a general tendency toward a maximum in the summer months. Although heavy snow storms are prac tically unknown in the Southern States in March, and of infrequent occurrence in the northern districts, some very re markable and memorable snow storms have visited the northern districts of the United States in that month, principal among which may be placed the great storm of March, 1888, which proved so destructive to life and property in the Northeastern States. All of the severe March snow storms of the Northeastern States have attended storms which have advanced from the southwest quarter. The period of damaging frosts in the interior of the South Atlantic and Gnlf States extends from November to April. Damaging frost is likely to occur in Flor ida from the middle of October until nearly the middle of April. Freezes of a character to injure oranges and orange trees in Florida are, however, practically unknown in March. nue, under the direction of the electric light com mittee.

Norris, in which he mentioned virtuous deeds and admirable characteristics of Washington, Lincoln, Grant and McKinley. He also suggested an idea which might wisely be made a national custom, that Instead of a special observance and break in business and school routine on the birthday of each honored President, one day be set apart and generally observed as heroes’ day, and the most fitting day to be 30 designated would be February 22d.— Canandaigua Repository . Supt. Norrls’a suggestion to a good one. Instead of multiplying holidays, which are more or less observed, and generally leas, to the upsetting of business, and little resulting good, the setting apart of one day In honoring the memory of our heroes, all, would be agreat improvement. Such a day would be likely to be respected universally and much would be learned of benefit to rising generations. No good point is served by holidays which are only observed by closing public offices and schools to the great detriment of business and the instruction and patriotic Inspiration o f few or none.

The figures of the M ail are as follows: Russia worth 32 bil lions owes 3# billions, Germany worth 40 owes 3 X» France worth 48% owes over 6. Great Britain worth 59 billions owes 3 while the United States worth nearly 82 billions owes only one billion one hundred millions. In comment on these figures the Roch ester Democrat says: When one contemplates the majesty, the power and the vast sum of human comfort and happiness comprised in such a statement of our national resources, he cannot but shudder at what might have been had the war for secession in the early sixties been successful. Then there would have been a Northern republic and probably a Southern empire. Possibly there would have been by this time an other nation in the Northwest and a fourth on the Pacific coast. Long ago foreign intervention would have been in voked by one party or another, and it to not improbable that war after war would have devaeted some sections of our now united land.

His patience and cheerfulness during all his long months o f illness was a marvel to all who saw him, always putting the bright side out and cheering and comforting those around him. During hla entire sickness, he bad undergone eight operations. In his last Illness be was con fined to his bed seven weeks. Mr. Hazard's was a strong and forceful charac ter. He seemed, in my mind, to be one of God's noble men, honest, upright, earnest. Intelligent, cofideotious, and thoroughly loyal to every duty. Having known him for many years, I never beard his personal character assailed. He was quiet and unassuming, yet his hand was lax, scattering, as he passed on hla way, blessings fraught with good. His example is one worthy of emulation by all. He was a firm believer in another and better life, to which death is but the entrance. 1 As a husband and father he was loving, faith ful and tender. His home was the place of his greatest happiness and his children ever dear to N o t i c e . Pursuant to. a resolution of the Board of Trustees of the village of Penn Yan, N.
