Mrs. Lizzie Klinefelter and Ida Hemes
are ou the sick list.
The young miss who was informed the

Klliot Hassinger and John Hillmver have
charge of John Slifers Jolitigariaus, run
uliiii ti miter at Stoiiv Ixiliesoiue, south of

a bad set of men to control. They either
fight some of our engineers or else with the
dogs. "Old Joe," a kind of a railroad dog,
was watching the Johugariau's dinner, but
alsmt 10 o'clock a craving hunger overtook

Harvey Swart/., our IKJSS teamster, liatil
sl the largest logs that were ever cut in

No good, J. B.
A big time is expected at camp Kttcliin
liefore long. Arrangements will be made
by tin- Swamp poodles to redcdicate ti e
camp. As Kitcliiu has left the boys think
it would lie proper to give tlie camp a new
name. Chairman Clayton Kulp will notify
the citizens of Poe Mills city of a special
meeting to be held on the third story of
Bachelor's Hall on Gilbert street.
A terrific hail storm passed over Gilbert
street abuut last Wednesday night. It ap
|iear* the ball made for Bachelor's Hall
and it awakened all the inmates and there
were a great many complaints on the fol
lowing morning. But our superintendent
don't seem to know anything about it.
The first excursion of the season on the
P. V. road left here last Sunday. Thirty
passengers boarded the train at this point
for Junctionville, where they had a pleas
ant time. Engineer Bonawitz, conductor
John Berries and buggageinaster William
Walter were in their glory. Junctionville
is a very healthy place. The only objection
tlie ladies seem to have is the peculiar cli
mate. It is on account of their complexion.
They frequently turn black spitted in tlie
face. On the road home conductor John
Hemes discovered a dead-head on board.
The train was stopped and off went tlie
dead-heading sun lsninet. When the train
steamed into Poe Mills a little Jew peddler
was struck by one of the donkey's sparks.
It gave the juror little fellow a hot streak
down his back—he made one big jtunj),
rolh-d over and cri<-d fire. Donkeys don't
seem to like Jew jH-ddlers.

OISITUAKY.
I>eath has calleii from our midst, at Poe Mills
on Friday marning.Oet. 21st, Lizzie, a daughter
of John and Rebecca Slifer, a -ed three years, 1
month and t days. Iar little Lizzie has gone
from our side to dwell among the angels on
lilgh. God has plucked the bright blossom
from a happy home. It is all for alpurpose and
none of us dare demur. He alone can pour
balmtupon the crushed hearts of the parents.
There Is joy in the thought that angel eyes'now
watch over the o-e that is gone. How many
temptations and sins dear Ltzz.e escapes by be
ing called In her early days from earth to
heaven. While the death of the dearlchlld
causes an ach ng void her parents'should re
member that it Is bet for a short time and that
the departed daughter and .sister watches her
loved ones from above. Your loss Is per eternal
gain. God who called dear Lizzie hmnfc to rest
thought it best and Ho wfl| sustain the sorrow
ing family in their dalle hour of aillii-tion.
