This is another very wintry morning, the thermometer register ing aboilt eight degrees below zero. Snow covers the ground to the depth of several inches. It looks as though the old saying about the ground hog seeing his shadow is going to hold good this time. Representative Foster of Montour County has introduced a bill for fni.ooo for the maintenance of Danville asylum. This is for the purpose of completing the male in firmary; to build a similar infirmary for the female patients, to build a nurse home, or dormitory for the female attendants and other improvements.

Mr. Betz says the prisoner was very peace able and he was not obliged to handcuff him during the entire journey. Upon reaching the west ern town, and when confronted by his accusers he broke into tears. Grand Jury Report. That we have pursuant to our re quired duties investigated all bills of indictment presented tor our consid eration and have passed upon them according to their respective merits. We have also examined the public buildings and find four balusters are needed in stair railing iu the county jail, and that the range needs re pairing. We unanimously recom mend that a telephone be placed in the jail for convenience of county officials, and in case of sickness among prisoners. Some of the seats in the court room need repairing. With these exceptions we find the county jail and court house are kept in good repair and that the dittercnt offices, vaults, etc., are kept in a most excellent condition. C. Small, Foreman. BOTES FROM ESPY. HOW TO HUD OUT. Fill a bottle or common glass with your water and let it stand twenty-four hours: a sediment or settling indicates an unhealthy condition of the kidneys; if it stains your linen it is evidence of idney trouble! too frequent desire to pass it or pain in the back is also con vincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order. What to Do. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism pain in the back, kidneys, liver, blad der and every part of the urinary pass ages. It corrects inability to hold water and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being com pelled to go often during the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extraordinary eflect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best. At druggists fifty cents or one dollar. You may have a sample bottle and book that tells more about it, both sent absolutely free by mail, if vou send vour address to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. When writ ing be sure and mention that you read this generous offer in The Columbian The trial of James Harvey and Arthur Nash for the robbery of Rev. Father McGrath and Hayes, of Centralia, a few months ago, is now going on in Court. District Attorney John G. Harman, Col. John G. Freeze and Fred Ikeler are representing the commonwealth. Voris Auten of Mt. Carmel and James Scarlet of Danville, are coun sel for Harvey, and Nash is represented by R. R. John and Clem R. Weiss, who were appointed by the Court. So far the winter has been of a varied character, for a few days of milder turn, varied with damp, chill, shivering gales. And now for a few days past we have sweeping blasts from the frigid zone with a promise of a continuance. All this feeds the prevailing disease, the grip, which is no respector of per sons, but attacks age, middle age and buoyant youth and from each class "gathers them iu" to feed the population of the silent city. So all persons have a care or in an unsus pected moment you may be sum moned to cross to the Stygian Shore. A Marrow Efcape. A bridal party had a thrilling ex perience and marvelous escape from instant death while out sleighing at Shenandoah, Tuesday night. When driving over a railroad cross ing the horses became "balky" at the approach of a passenger train, and re fused to leave the track. The grooms man and bridesmaid, Charles Narkie wicz and Mary Bierstein, jumped be fore the engine struck the sleigh and escaped. The groom, bride and the driver became bewildered and remained in the sleigh, which was completely de molished and the three occupants were hurled several yards in a snow drift. They are seriously, if not fat- allv. lniured. One of the horses was killed. The following letters are held at . the Bloomsburg, Pa., postoffice, and will be sent to the dead letter office Feb. a i, 1899: Mr. David Bowen, C. II. Burson, Mrs. Lydia Campbell (3), Miss Etta Hess. Mr. C. E. Keifer, Miss Ella Webb. Persons calling for the above letters will p'ease say that they were advertised Feb.Jo, 1899. O. B. Mellick, P M. Miss Jennie Griffith is , visiting friends in the coal regions. F. B. Rmcrose visited up river friends the latter part of last week. T. Monroe' Lehman and family en tertained a large party of sleigh riders from a distance on Tuesday night. ' H. F. Dietterich of the St. Elmo Hotel of Bloomsburg, accompanied by his daughter, visited his mother, Mrs. John Dietterich, on Saturday. T. E. Fidler of Bloomsburc, was noticed in Espy on Saturday. Miss Besse Robison is making an extended visit with Hazleton friends, A party of our young ladies enjoy ed a sleieh-nde to Catawissa, behind Creasy's steeds on Tuesday night. The impression seems to be preva lent, especially in surrounding towns, that Rev. Minemier of the Lutheran church, has. or will soon deliver his farewell sermon. As a matter of fact, Mr. Minemier's terra as pastor of this church has not vet expired, and no steps have been taken by either him self or congregation toward making a change. As the time for the spring elections draws nigh, the interest is becoming more manifest as to what the general outcome will be in this district. More rivalry seems to exist between the dif ferent candidates for township favors than is usual. Good candidates have, however, been nominated by the two parties, and the result, whichever may be, will no doubt be accepted with entire satisfaction by all con cerned. The interest seems to be centered principally upon the Super visorship, as the regularly nominated candidates are both making strenuous efforts in their own behalf, and we are informed that Wilson Wanich, the present incumbent, will be an mde pendent candidate for re-election This naturally makes the situation more complicated as well as interest ine. Concerning the omce 01 K.egis trv Assessor, however, our old inena O. Byron Case, who has for several years been conducting the business of that most important function, ana wno has again been nominated to hold that distinction, we understand has come to the conclusion that a crisis is confronting him.and that her"oic meth ods are necessary to carry him safely through the tumult of election day. They say Barney chews moie tobacco than usual, and does not sleep well o' nights. But as he is a splendid electioneer, and has a way peculiarly his own of winning his way into public favor, we don't mind saying that we predict a successful termination to Barney's campaign, and that he will emerge unscathed from the affray on election night with an overwhelming majority, and that he will continue to do patrol duty around the Town Hall with book in hand for the ensuing term. John Hoffman, aged 15 years, was crushed to death at Eckley stripp ing at 10:00 o clock Monday morning. He was running a trip often cars on a siding, a single loaded car standing further ahead. He was unable to check the speed of the trip he was handling and they came together with great force against the loaded car, pinning the boy between them.
