cor SIR SR ll tA ——————————————————— Lemont. Wisconsin Man Sends Resignation to Last week, taking it all through, was cold and disagreeable. Number four come to the happy home of H. F. Houlz, Saturday, and it was a hoy. Elmer Mulbarger, of Bellefonte, visited among friends in these parts Thursday of last week. Tuesday evening brought us one of the worst snow storms of the winter, with the wind at about a thirty mile gait. By all appearances the people have ice enough and some to go to waste for the ponds are covered and no one touches it. Thomas Fisher opened the moving ball last Wednesday by moving from the old Aston house to the Holt property out in the Bar- rens. Mr. Ferree had the misfortune to have a horse badly kicked on Tuesday night, for which he had to call Dr. W. H. Fry to put in a number of stitches. Schreck Bros., our hustling blacksmiths and buggy agents, are doing a big business this spring. Last week they gota car load of new buggies that will soon be sold. The people of this town were surprised when they beard of the wedding of John H. Shuey and Mrs. Maggie Armstrong, last Thursday, but all wish them much happi- ness. The robin red-breast has made his appear- ance with cheer-up-cheer, and that looks encouraging, for the ground-hog has given such disagreeable weather the people need to be cheered-up. The United Telephone company is having two more wires put up on the line between State College and Lemont, and the patrons say it is not one day too soon to make the service what it should be. Waldo Homan, B. F. Homan’s oldest son, returned to the hospital last Friday to have another operation performed on his head, this being the third time since his thirteenth birthday, but this one will not be very seri- ous. George Mitchell had the great misfortune to fall, last Thursday, while'walking around his sled, seriously hurting his shoulder by falling upon it, but the doctor thus far has not found any broken bones and it is hoped that he will be all right soon. Spring Mills, Our ice houses are all filled. Of course we are very happy in consequence. J. L. Hutchinson, of Buffalo, N. Y., was a business visitor here last week. There will be quite a number of changes and removals in our village on the first. Dwellings are scarce. Ripka’s are closing out their entire stock at less than cost, and will discontinue business on the first of April. E. Finkle, of Rote, will occupy the premises. Our merchants report a very fair business during February. The continued cold weather gave them an opportunity to unload them- selves of an over stock of woolen goods, not a very desirable stock to carry over. Very cold and stormy weather just now. His bogship was about correct with his movements indicating, as is said by some old women, a continuance of six weeks more of winter. We have been having it in earnest. J. H. Rishel has stone and lumber on his lot next to the postoffice, and will commence building his store room and residence the moment the weather permits. At present Mr. Rishel is doing business at Farmer's Mills. The A. B. C. club of this village is decided. ly a very active and progressive organiza. tion of young ladies. Every alternate week they have a literary and musical entertain. ment for their own special benefit and edifica. tion, which is certainly very commendable, Their next meeting will be at the home of Miss Aona M. Cummings on Friday evening next. The following program has been ar- ranged for the occasion * Music by the club. Select Readi Transfers of Real Estate.

Davidson, WILL RESUME LAW PRACTICE Washington, March 4. — Senator Spooner has written a letter to Gov- ernor Davidson, of Wisconsin, tender- ing his resignation 2s a senator of SENATOR JOIN C. SPOONER OF WISCONSIN. the United States, to take effect May 1 next. The letter was dated Satur- day, but the fact that such a letter had been written or that Mr. Spooner contemplated resigning did not become known in the senate until late Sun- day, when it created great surprise, and the Wisconsin senator at once found himself the subject of many anxious inquiries. To all he replied that his mind was fully made up. He had found, he said, that to continue in his present position would require a sacrifice on his part that he could not justify himself in making. In re- ply to questions, he said he would re- sume the practice of the law, but de- clined to say whether he would be located in Wisconsin. He did say, however, that he would continue to be a citizen of that state as long as he lives. Vice President Fairbanks was one of the few public men to be made ac- quainted with Mr. Spooner’'s plans be- fore he wrote his letter. The knowl: edge came to him through the perso- | nal confidence of the senator, but the latter made no official communication on the subject to either the senate or its presiding officer. The law does not require that a resigning senator should do more than Mr. Spooner has done, but some senators who have re- signed have given notice to the sen- ate. Mr. Spooner served 16 years in the senate. SAW SEA SERPENT Monster, Spouting Blood Red Liquid, Nearly Wrecked Launch. Atlantic City, N. J., March 2.—Cap- tain H. H. Parker, of the gasoline launch Goldy Budd, arrived home after a startling trip to sea. When about’ seven miles off Ocean City the cap-| tain says his launch was so badly | damaged by a sea monster that he was forced tc put into Great Egg Harbor Bay. When the launch struck the sea monster the propeller was torn away. Captain Parker says the monster was about 100 feet long, looked like a sea serpent, blew like a whale, but instead of water being spouted the fluid emit- ted was of blood-red hue, and made the water around the boat as red as blood. | The captain and his crew of six men say that they will make affidavits that the story is true in every particular. Captain Parker says that he discov- ered the wreck of a four-masted schooner a few miles off Ocean City. The topmast was several feet out of water, and was painted black while the spars were painted yellow. short dis- tance from where the schooner was located, another wreck, apparently that of a barge, was sighted. oer Saami KILLED IN ELEVATOR Female Operator Crushed to Death In Philadelphia. Philadelphia, Pa.,, March 4.—Martha Peterman, an elevator operator at the Y. M. C. A. building in this city, was crushed to death by the lift she was running. She had run the elevator up to the eighth floor, where she left it standing while she went to break- fast. The elevator had dropped sev- eral feet below the floor when she re- turned. Miss Peterman law down on the floor to reach the controller and run the lift back to the floor level. In doing so she turned the lever the wrong way and the car descended, crushing her head. This is the first fatal accident to a female elevator operator ever reported in the city. | grievance committee, but the trainmen | have been since December 4 until the | who received burns or other hurts, | and eight of these were in such a Should Hang This Brute.

Harrisburg, Pe., March 2.—The men of the Harrisburg yards of the Penn- sylvania railroad are said to to have voted 90 per cent. for a strike. Enola end Sunbury are also reported to have zast a heavy strike vote. The first official announcement of the position of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen in the controversy with the company was made public here. The announcement is addressed to all trainmen of the Pennsylvania railroad east of Pittsburg and Erie and explains in full the Brotherhood’s side of the contentions which have resulted in a strike vote on the whole eastern section of the system. The men demand a shorter day and a more equitable wage scale, and they claim that for several years they have endeavored to obtain from the company a uniform wage schedule and code of rules applicable to working conditions, which schedule would show employes just what compensation they were en- titled to receive for service performed. In the main a code of rules was worked out recently at a conference between the company officials and the claim there are a number of rules which involve an increase, which Gen- eral Manager Atterbury refuses to grant. The announcement concludes as fol- lows: “While it is not our intention to say anything on the subject matter that will ixfluence our members from fairly and justly considering this statement as submitted, yet we believe, in jus- tice to you, you should know that the general manager has not given the consideration which it merited, as we present time trying to negotiate a set- tlement which, owing to the general manager's attitude, has been very ex- pensive to our members.” The statement is signed by the mem- bers of the grievance committee and other officials of the trainmen inter- ested.

A res- cuing party at once went down the shaft, and near the foot found eight men slowly being asphyxiated. The rescuers also felt the effect of the gas, and quickly as possible they placed the men on the shaic lift ana removed them to the surface. There it was found they had been badly burn- ed about the face and body. There is a second opening in the mine some distance away, and the un- injured men in the mine escaped through this opening.
