A cylinder head which was being heated over a forge, was (because of the trouble, although what caused it to explode with such terrific force is a mystery. The forge was destroyed, and portions of the roof badly torn up. The building caught fire but the blaze was extinguished.

Our newly elected Judge Kshinka took his seat upon the bench with Judge Terry and Judge Reeser. The Court appointed Joseph C. Pennington Court Crier, and Josiah Henbury and Sargant Funning Tip staves. The applications for tavern and restaurant licenses were then taken up. All of the applications except one even for old licensed houses, and there being no exceptions, and the bonds sufficient, the Court granted them all. The application of John Daly for a new tavern license in Cherry town ship was then taken up, and a num ber of witnesses heard. There being no remonstrances or exceptions, and the witnesses all testifying that the house was necessary to accommodate the public and entertain strangers and travelers, the licence was grant ed. George Hall, an employe of C. W. Hones, was terribly injured last Friday at the Sones lumber opera tion an Kettle Creek, r<bout. five miles front Eagles Mere. The lum ber on a car which had just been loaded slipped, and Hall was caught by it. He was terribly crushed about the hips and abdoinan. Mr. Hall was employed by Mr. Sones as a fireman f or some time, Friday the force of men with whom lie was working were loading a car on Mr. Sones' narrow guage rail road. The work had been com pleted, and the ear was being started out when a standard broke and the load slipped, and one end of the timber caught Hall, and he was pinned <lo\\ n by the weight of the lumber. Dr. S. S. Koser of Williamsport was sifnunoned and left for the scene of the accident. He stated that Halls pelvic bones are badly crushed and sharp pieces have pen etrated his flesh. Sunday evening he was reported a little impioved, and there was no change in his condition on Monday. Every ef fort is being made to save his life and he is getting the best of care. The nurse attending him cannot be with him both day and iiij. ht so a physician takes care of him at night. The doctor is taken up from Hillsgrove on a train at night and returns home the next morn ing. The Philadelphia Record rightly maintains that the most impressive' spectacle of the present day is not the enormous pecuniary success at tained by a few men. The religious principle that no ' man or woman is unworthy of help who will accept it, or who may pos sibly accept it, is taking a deeper ■ hold upon the social consciousness. Many years ago Jerry McAuley, a specimen of the "submerged tenth"- submerged morally not less than ma terially— wandered into a mission. The spiritual element in him was ' not quite extinct, and responded to , the appeal there made to him. lie . became a religious man, a man of exemplary character; and he devot ed the remainder of his life to the rescue of men and women as degrad ed as he had been. After he died the work was contin ued in what was named for him the McAuley Water street mission in New York. It was conducted for many years by the Rev. S. 11. Had i ley, who diet! last week, and who, like Jerry, was a reclaimed "bum." lie was instrumental in rescuing many men anil women from the lowest depths of degradation and vice. l|i s sympathy and love gave him power over them. It was not ' what he said to them, but what he ' was that gave him influence. He was a friend of the debased. Mis last words were:"\Vho will care for my poor bums?" Some one will. As lie succeeded Jerry McAuley, some one else will succeed him. Hut the world can ill att'ore to lose such men; thev are not very abundant. ' - Not satisfied liecnuse the nominees of both parties for school director at Wyuluslng were men without child ren of ncliool age, the women of that i town tried to induce two of their | own numbers to run as candidates.
