going through a tunnel on a Lehigh
Valley passenger train near Hazlcton a
friend kuocked oil the young man's hat,
forced Ills lingers through his hair, kissed
the back of his own hand, and then slap
ped his own face violently. Every one in
the car looked in that direction when the
light came, and the friend was apparently
the most surprised of all. The mussed mi
nppearance and confusion of the astonish
ed victim convinced the spectators that he
had tried to steal a kiss nnd had been slap
ped. Tho young lady understood tho situ
ation and blushed painfully. The friends
cot off at the same station, a rouirh.and-

was whipped.

Last Friday morning shortly after 8

Tho facts nro as follows i Georgo W. Sup.

Ho was a bright boy of 17 years, nnd a
member of the Junior Class. On Thursday

John J. Gnss, nnd on leaving It left Ids hat
there. The next morning it is supposed ho
went to get hit hat and finding Gnss' door
locked, he went Into an adjoinltig room,
occupied by Michael II. McAnlll who was

Gnss' room by tho window. This was on

Suppleo left his room (a,) nt about eight

his room-mate, as to where ho wns going.
He went through tho halls, tried the dour
c, and finding It locked went Into room b,
and attempted to pass around by the win.
dows. The windows are about a foot
apart, with a wide sill nnd ledge on tho
outside. Ho stepped out on the sill nnd
grasping the column between the windows
with one hnnd he stooped to raise tho win
dow of room c. when his foot slipped on
the Icy sill nnd ho fell to the roof of tho
kitchen, n distance ot nbout 12 feet. He
struck the edge of tlio roof in a silting po
sition which turned him partially so that
he struck the ground on his head and
shoulders. Richard S. Patterson, a stu
dent who was sitting at the window of his
own room, (c,) saw Suppleo fall, and im
mediately ran down stairs and Informed
Mr. Wells, the steward, that somebody had
fallen from a window. Mr. Wells ran to
the dining room and with W. IIouscl, the
janitor, found Suppleo lying on the ground
near the dining room door, with his head
bent under his body. Ho was immediate
ly carried into a room on the first floor,
and nn examination showed a slight flutter

Reber was immediately summoned, but
the unfortunate young man was dead be.

nforcsnld ; who being sworn nnd nflirmed
to Inquire, on the part of the Common
wealth, when, where, how and after what
manner tho said George AV. Suppleo Jr.,
came to his dentil, do say, upon their oath
and affirmation, that the said George W,
Supplee Jr., on tho day nnd date aforesaid
ut about the hour of 8 11. m., being in n
room occupied by John J. Gass located in
the third story of the boarding hall of tho
Hloomsburg State .Normal School, In tho
said town of Hloomsburc, and thnt the
said Georgo did then and there attempt to
go from and by tho window of said room
upon a ledge nnd sill running upon the
outside thereof, into a room ndjoining oc
cupled by Michael II. McAnilT, through the
winuow tncrcoi which said window wns

That tlio purposo of the said Georgo was to
obtain his hut which ho had left in the
room last mentioned tho night previous
the door of this room being locked nnd tho
room nt this time being unoccupied, aud
that tlio room from which the said Georgo
attempted to go was at that time unoccu

examination we found the window sills
and the ledge aforesaid covered with a
smooth coating of Ice. And that tho said
George In thus attempting to go from room
to room aforesaid, accidentally, casually
aud by inlsfortuno did slip and fall from

causing his death. And so the jurors
aforesaid do say that the said George W.
Supplee Jr., iu tho manner and by the

by misfortune came to his death and not
otherwise. And they do further find that
no blame therefor attaches to any of tho

Why Not by tlic Keif.
Deau Sihsi I wish to make known
through your columns why It Is thnt my
wine cannot be had from druggists by the
pint or quart, &c, drawn from the cask
It I. because there are so many unprln-
clplcd men iu the business thnt I dare not
trust my wines to be dealt out In that way
and remain pure. Unless I have some se
curity against its adulteration, too many
men would make two bottles out of one by
adulteration, as tho wlno is so rich that It
will stand that, and even mere, and yet
sell tor my pure wine, and not be noticed
by thoso who have been using California
Port Wine, Tho only security the public
have In getting my wine pure, Is for me to
bottle It and afllx my signature over the
cork of each bottle. The price nt one dol.
lar per bottlo Is no more thau It would be
In bulk, except the cost of the bottling,
cork nnd label.
I would be glad to sell It by the barrel,
could I bo sure of its being dealt out to
consumers iu its pure stute. I found years
ago by experience that the only way the
public could get my wine pure, wrb to seal
every package, with my signature over the
stopper.
Not long ago a druggist in Trenton,
N. J was approached by a customer who
wanted a bottlo of fc'peer's Port Grape
Wlno for his sick wife, "I have it" said
the druggist, who at once repaired to tho
cellar nnd shortly came up with a bottle
part tilled nnd corked and 110 label, and de
livered It to the customer for Speer's Port
Grape Wine, That customer took It home,
It made his wlfo sick, he afterwards show
ed the wlno to n physician who declared It
was nothing like Spccr's wines, but miser
able stuff palmed off Instead.
This shows the necessity of taking every
precaution to Insure a method by whtch
consumers may bo sure when they get my
wine. ours Respectfully,
