If the above paragraph is true,
there will be a public nuisance in Phila
delphia to the annoyance of which
the people ought not to submit for a

nuisance, is receiving a good deal of
consideration at the hands of medical
men and scientists. The roar and
screech of manufacturics whistles, the
scream of the locomotives, and the
ringing of bells, have so increased the
daily and nightly noises as to be in
tolerable, and to greatly interfere with
the health and comfort of sick per-

The Murderer Captured.
LITTLE AGNES WRIGHT'S ASSAILANT
CONFESSES HIS CRIME,
The murderer of Agnes Cooper
Wright, the 9-year old school girl who
was outraged and strangled a week
ago, was captured Tuesday. The
same afternoon the Dauphin County
grand jury found a true bill against
him for murder, and he will be put on
trial for the crime. His name is Ben
iamin Tennis, who is the father of a
; large family and has been a widower
j the past six years. He lived within a
' hundred yards of the residence of the
parents of the murdered girl.
As rumor had repeatedly associated
his name with ugly scandals involving
indecent attacks qn small girls, he be
came an object of suspicion. Detec
tive Anderson, of Harrisburg, had
him under cover for several days, and
Monday night became thoroughly con
vinced, from the investigation he had
made, that Tennis was the slayer of
Agnes Cooper Wright.
When arrested Tennis was cutting
corn in a field a few miles from Hum
melstown. At first he denied' his
guilt, but finally admitted that he had
murdered th girl, but that he had
not intended to kill her when he p'an-

A Susquehanna Tish Project.
The Fish Commission is consider
ing the advisability of altering the
fishway at Columbia, and erecting
new ones at Clark's Ferry and Sun
bury. At present but few shad are
found beyond Columbia. Shad fish
ing practically ends there, the dam at
that point not allowing them to pass.
It is considered by many of the Com
missioners as most desirable to in
crease the area of shad fishing. If the
money needed can be secured to
erect these fishways shad can then
ascend the river and up its North
Branch as far as Nanticoke dam, to
Muncy on the West Branch and up
the Juniata to Millerstown. If the
work goes on for the next year or two
as it has in the past three years the
Susquehanna will soon regain its old
time reputation among fishermen.
Our large rooms arc now full in all
kinds of Fall and Winter Goods
