The law requires postmasters to notify

is a neglect of duty, and wc believe that
Iho postmaster thus negligent can be made
to pay for the paper from tho tlmo ttiat It
Is refused. Wo havo just received a no

ty, informing us that a certain paper has

A Mounter Ilroote Trout.
W. O. Elliott, manager ot tho Academy
of Music, is tho envy of all tho fishermen.
Friday morning ho received from somo ono
on Kettle creek, near the Cross Forks, two
trout, one ot which was a beauty ot tho
first magnitude. Tho trout was eighteen
inches in length, four and a half inches
wide, two Inches across tho back and
weighed thrco and three-fourth pounds.
It was the largest trout ever seen by tho
present generation ot fishermen. Mr,
Elliott docs not know who caught the trout,
but thinks It was sent by the man who lives
on his place on Kettle creek. Old fisher
men say that tho angler must have used a
meat hook and clothes line to haul the
monster from tho Btrcam. Wllllamsport

On Monday morning tho case of Dr, 11.
F. Gardner of this town against tho Blooms
burg Btcam & Electric Light Co. began be
fore tho jury selected last week, Judge
Archbald presiding. Tho caso was opened
for tho plaintiff by L. E. Waller Esq., tho
other counsel for plaintiff being C. W. Mil
ler, and J. Scarlet Esqs. Tho defenso was
represented by II. M. Hinckley Esq. of
Danville, Ikeler & Herring, L. S. Winter.
steen and J. M. Clark Esqs. After somo
preliminary sklrml;blng among tho lawyers,
Samuel Neyhard was called as tho first
witness, and by him was proved a permit
by tho town council to tho Btcam Co. to
lay pipes In the streets of Bloomsburg. Tho
ofilclal map of the town, and tho rcgistra.
Hon ot the plaintiff as a physician wcro of
fered In evidence, and then Dr. Gardner
was put upon tho witness stand. Ho Is al
most entirely disabled, and was brought
Into court on an Invalid chair. He testified
that on tho night of Bcpt 80, 1880 he was
called to seo a patient, and drovo down
Iron street. At the corner of Fourth street
ho checked up his horso to n very slow
trot, drovo on a little further and drovo In
to a ditch. It was a very dark night, lie
was pitched out of his wagon. Tho horse
was fast In tho ditch, and they got It out
nftor awhile. Then bo walked down and
saw the patient, come back up Iron and
then up homo. Noticed a numbness In his
hands first. Went to Mercer's and tried to
wrlto a prescription for his horse's bruises,
and couldn't control his hand. Had a bad
night, and In the morning his left arm was
parallzed. Has not been ablo to dress him
self since. Called In Dr. McRcynolds, and
went to Philadelphia to consult Dr. Ellis ft
specialist, and has been under his treat
ment ever since. Expenses havo been from
$000 to $800. Cannot describe tho pain
that he has suffered. Prior to tho accident
hs was In excellent health. His practlco
amounted to $3,500 to $4,000 a year. Is
unabto to perform a surgical operation now,
Saw no barriers at tho ditch, saw nothing
to Indicate that thero was a ditch there.
CliOSS-XXAMINED BY Mil. UlNCKtEY.
Tho patient I started to see lived at Scv-
cntli and Catharine. My office was over
Schuyler's store, and I went down Iron
street, had been to seo samo patient two or
three times beforo ; think I went to sec
samo patient night before. Went down
East street to Beventh then. May have
been down Iron that morning, can't say ;
last time I passed Iron street there was a
place wboro the ditch had been filled up on
the cast sido, so I went down the west side
of tho street. I didn't know whether steam
or water pipes had been put down. After
barriers were removed 1 went down. The
last tlmo I saw tho street it was Bate for
any man to drlvo It. I did not tako an
other street because Iliad no reason to be-
lleve that Iron street was more dangerous
than any other street. Don't remember
about lights the night before. Could have
gone as near a route by other streets that
would havo avoided Iron street. Did not
say to anybody that I saw the lantern but
did not know which sido of tho street it
referred to. Did not tay that I had been
down the street that day or the day before,
and saw that the east sido was Impassable,
and that was tho reason I took the west
side." Hero followed a long cross-examl
nation laying grounds for contradiction.
Was driving at the rate of about 5 miles an
hour. Didn't drive up on Ihc pavement
it was so dark I couldn't see the horse.
First I remember after accident was seeing
a lamp or lantern that somo lady brought
out. I know afterwards there was a barrel
with a lantern, saw it as we wcro trying to
get horse out. Barrel was at end ot old
ditch on east side. A boy naiftad Bidleman
came along first. Memory affected in somo
ways, not in others. Can remember any
thing that is impressed, on my mind.
Practlco has been conducted by my partner
since accident. Value of practice was
based on amount of book charges. Bizo ot
horso was a little below average ; spirited
and gentle, nothing vicious about her ; had
a buck-board, narrow gauge.
Tho foregoing is a brief outline of tho
plaintiff's testimony.
Dr. II. C. Wood of Philadelphia was af-
firmed. He is a professor of nervous uls
eases in the hospital ot the University of
Pennsylvania, author of a work on nervous
diseases, and has been called as an expert
In this stato and Now York. Has examln
cd Dr. Gardner, found loss of power from
the head down, tendency to contraction of
muscles, what is known as knee-jerk. Dis
ease is chronic Inflammation ot the spinal
cord. It Is the result of tho accident, with
very Utile chance of amelioration, and will
gradually increase until death ensues
insanity may result
On cross-examination the witness said
that tho condition ot tho plaintiff might
have arlseu from other causes,
Dr. M. U. Bockroth of Philadelphia has
charge ot the nervous department of Jeffer
son College. He has examined Dr. Gard
ner, and thinks he will become a chronic
Imbecile. It is very doubtful If ho can ever
practice his profession. Condition Is duo
to an Injury to Ihe spine.
Tuesday Moiininu.
John M. Clark Esq. sworn. Am secre-
tary of tho Bloomsburg Steam & Eleptrio
Light Co. since Oct. 1885, the time of Its
organization. Minutes of the company
shown witness, minutes ot Oct. 17th aud
21st 1885 read by witness, showing forma.
tlon of company and election ot directors
and other officers, also steps taken to make
application for charier etc. etc. The samo
parties named In these minutes aro the of.
fleers of the Bluom. Steam & Electric Light
Co. and wero in control of the company on
tho 30th of Sept. 1880, Mr, A. Z. Bhoch was
President at that time.
Cross-examination. The incorporated
company first took chargo ot the works
somewhero between tho 0th and 8th ot Feb.
1880. The contractors ot the American
District Bteam Co. bad control from Oct.
1885 to this time. The Bteam Co. of Bloom
bad no control whatever during the Inter
val from Oct. '85 to Feb. '80. The works'
were constructed under a written contract
by tho American District Btcam Co. of
Lockport N. Y., they did tho work of lay
ing tho pipes ane erecting the works.
Nothing was done by th Bteam Ss Electrto
Light Co. after tho completion ot tho con
tract with the American District Steam Co,
under tho permit of the council. Th cor
poration did not make tho contract.
Re-dlrect. A portion of tho contract
price was paid by tho Individuals who
afterwards constituted the corporation, tho
rest was paid by the corporation. The
permit in evidence was tne only one ever
obtained so far as my knowledge extends.
The extension on Iron street was completed
somewhere about tho first ot Oct., 1880
Tho wholo town Is not piped and wo mako
extensions from time to time, as thero is a
demand for steam.
Cross-examined. The cast side of Iron
Btreet was Impassable for a week or ten
days, before tho 80tb ot Sept. 1880 the main
ditch had been filled up, ther were no
other ditches on the morning ot tho 80lb,
on that day a cross ditch was dug for the
Hartnan service pipe. The width of the
passago on the west side of the street as
near as 1 can judge was ten or eleven feet.
Geo. W, West sworn. Resides In Dan
ville, Is a surveyor, made a draft of Iron
street between 4th and 5th streets, mado It
from measurements taken on tho ground.

Dr. O. n. Allls sworn. Lives in Phila
dclphla. Physician and surgeon. Witness
offered as expert. Dr. (iardncr came to
Philadelphia to seo him October 4th 1880.
Bald ho had been thrown from a carriage,
striking on his phoulder and hurt It exceed
ingly. Examined him. Found there was
an Injury ot tho splno. Great pain about
centre of body, feeling as though there was
an Iron band around his chest. Numb sen
sation In limbs, especially in left limb.
Pain around chest is always significant ot
spinal injury. March 1st, 1887, Mr. Mercer
brought Dr. Gardner to Philadelphia.
Found the disease had mucn increased. A
raw hide Jacktt was mado for him to give
support to the body, and an appliance to
put upon his left limb so that bo could
walk with a four-legged cane. He will al
ways require these appliances to assist him
In walking. Tho original cause of tho uls
ease was an accident of somo kind, a fall of
any kind, a fall that would bring about a
severe jar to tho body. It one bo thrown
out ot a buggy, striking violently upon the
back, would produce such symptoms.
Present condition ono of great suffering,
Tho symptoms could not have arisen from
any other causo than that given. It tho
disease bo arrested ho can never earn his
own living. Ho Is a sklliul physician, as a
general surgeon. Think he would per-
form tho operations of surgery as skilfully
us any physician in Philadelphia.

When we opened the season
with the announcement of 1059

showing we have been adding
constantly. Now a little army

Black All-wool Henriettas
Genuine German. Plenty of
so-called all-wool Henrietta in

French Cashmere calendered to
give it the Henrietta finish
And it isn't Henrietta finish
after all. That silky sheen
doesn't come from calendering,

Only a Utile clip you say. Down
