Tuesday nlht, December 27, Jacob and Sanderson Fox, of New Columbus, Luz erne county, who had been working in the woods of Potter county, arrived at Bernlce on their way home, via Etmlra and Tow. anda. They staid at McGeeyer's Hotel that night and on Wednesday morning continued their jonrncy on foot They reached Long Pond at 2:40 p. m. Hero they rested and each drank several glasses of liquor. Sanderson left at 8 o'clock, Jacob following In about IS minutes. Jacob left tbo hotel on u run and passed over the hill out of sight, still running. This was the last seen of blm alive. Thurs. day afternoon a man by the name of Mor ton, residing at Uugbcsvlllc, came over the mountain from Columbia county, and re ported at the Long Pond hotel that there was a man lying dead In the road about a mile from the hotel. A party Immediately went out and brought him In. It was Jacob Fox. Coroner Waddell was notified and Friday mornlng.left Dushore with tho following jury: Ambroso Farrell, Walter Applcman, John Farrell, James Keif, Geo. Strcby, J. W. Young. The ovldence elicit ed at tbb Inquest was Incomplete and un. satisfactory, and they adjourned to assem ble again In Dushore on Monday, bringing tho body home with them. The only evi dence of consequence obtained at Long Pond was that Jacob Fox had gone about two miles from the hotel and then retraced his steps to the placo where found. This was proved by tracks in the snow. Sunday afternoon, Ira Fox another brother, arrived from Fall Brook, Tioga county. Constable Frank Maynard was despatched after San derson Saturday. Monday noon Sander returned to Duskoro with Thos. Hiddle and John Bogart, of Fishlngcreck town ship, Columbia county, brothers-in-laws of tho deceased. They had learned of his sad fate and brought with Ihem a coffin in which to take home the remains. Samuel Colo and C. T. Lllley wero substituted for Keif and Streby, who were out of town, and tho jury reassembled and and took the evidence of tho two brothers of tho dead man. Sanderson testified to parting with his brother at the Long Pond as above stated. Had not seen him, since. Several yeurs ago Jaob had been subject to fits. His father died of heart disease. Ira Fox corroborated his brothei'3 evidence in re gard to the last two items. Their testimony was given In a straightforward manner without reservation or evasion. The jury thereupon rendered a vordlct "that the de ceased came to bis death in a manner and form to them unknown." Probably Jacob Fox brought on an at tack of his old complaint by over exertion in an endeavor to catch up with his broth er. Realizing that ho could not catch him and feeling the approaching sickness he started to return to Long Pond, but death overtook blm before ho reached shelter His body lay In the road that nlgbt and until afternoon of tho next day and was frozen as bard as iron. His brothers and brothers-in-law left Monday afternoon with the body ,'for Now Columbus, at which place it will bo inter red. At the commcncmcnt of this affair indications strougly pointed to foul play, but we are glad to say they aro entirely dispelled. Jacob several yeais ago worked for Amos Cox ot Cherry. Sanderson was for morly employed In tho lumber woods be low Laportc. Both aro young men. Thus ends tbo four days wonder. Dushore Jit tiew. WANAMAKERS. rniLiDELrniA, Monday, Jan. 9, m.

It is as if we were again in the rush and bustle of Holiday time. FRENCH SA'IEENS. The new ones are here. Not the highest cost, 3 1 cents a yard. You need not know the makers; call them Wanamaker's, for we control this market on them. This is the hub of the Sateen trade. You may eet a notion from the fact that the 70,000 yards in store to-day are only onc-iourth ot a single order, And then other orders on both sides of the sea. Watch the season and you will know how great they are. The first peep at the styles an artist's first view : Fifty. three plain shades. Gobelins and mahogany, zouave-red and baby-blue, sepent and cream rainbows divided and multiplied. And for figures, stripes with trailing vines, stripes with polka dots dancing all about, stripes holding up plaids ; plaids with over-platds ; palm patterns, and aotiDie o s involved like a jug glers rings. ints rattle aoout styles may do you some good. Not much unless it bring you to see the stuffs. GINGHAMS. No longer suggestive of the pinafore and checked apron, the charity school and the kitchen. The Gingham is in high life now, and ought to be. A few days ago we wrote : "And every one of these Scotch Zephyr Gingham styles is exclu sively our own." They are on the counters, and we have had a bit of a chance to know them. We will introduce ou : 50 cents a yard. A symposium of figure and col or. All more or less pronounc ed, but blonde or brunette, small person or large, younger or older can catch the needed style with equal ease. there is entertainment in these Ginehams. Do vou know Ginghams'? Unless you are an expert go slow on values. WHITE GOODS. White Plaid Lawn at 10 cents. A staple thing at least 20 per cent, less than real value: uold dollars at eighty cents. Would you buy at that? Buy this and you will do as well, provided you can use the Lawn. The use is the only difference between the bleached cotton and the cold. tin . ... . . .O vvnite piaid wainsook at i2lA cents. No possible reason why it should be sold at that. Its worth 16 cents to-day. And you'll pay that or more, here or elsewhere soon. At least so we think. Fine White Cambric. ''Long Cloth," so-called, but why we don't know. 2i cents. It's the complement to the forego ing. These goods are new. iust opened. You may call them arbitrary bargains, if you will. Unreasonable bargains. We make them so from a sort of mama for bargain making. HAMBURGS- As welcome news as we have ever had' in these dainty cre ations. Fresh goods, desirable in every way, and at a fragment of the common prices. yt inch to 6 inches wide : Hamburgs at 10c Hamburgs at 12c Hamburgs at 15c Hamburgs at 20c Nothing mean or common about them. On heavy cambric, and just the sorts you'll want to start the spring family sewing with. All-Overs- Cambric All-overs, 20 inches wide. We count the worth of all these things by the stitches on them. By the stitch stand ard these All-overs are worth $1.50 a yard. By any standard thev are worth double our price. we have marked them 50 cents. HANDKERCHIEFS. Men's fine Linen olatrr whits and hemstitched Handkerchiefs at $3 a dozen. We never be fore knew such Handkerchiefs to be sold for less than 6 a dozen. A hundred other bargains just as wonderful at the same counters. SILKS- Some exceptional offerings will be made at the silk counters To-day we only point to a few typical iocs.
