8- THE COLUMBIAN.; BLOOMS BURG, PA. THUKSJ'AY, MARC!! 9, 1905. EXTENSION OF THE TROLLEY. Charter Has8oen Granted ths Northumber land County Traction Co. Will ( Connect With Danville. A short time ago a charter was granted by the state department at Harrisburg to the Northumberland County Traction Company, the pur pose of whidh is to extend the Lcw isburg, Milton and Watsontown trolley line from East Lewistown to Northumberland, via Montandon. At that point it will connect with the Sunbury and Northumberland road, which will give Milton and the Upper Knd direct connection with the county seat. When the Danville and Sunbury line and Farmer Kulp'sShamokin extension are completed to Sunbury, as they are likely to be this summer, we will have direct trolley communica tion with Danville,' Bloomsburg, Berwick, Sliamokin, M t . Carmel and Ashland. Sup er inten dent Mountney is now engaged in secur ing the right of way in Chilljsqua que and Point townships' and the prospect so far as the Work has gone is most encouraging. Work on the line will be commenced as soon as the right of way has been secured and will be pushed rapidly to com pletion. . It is .expected to haves the toad finished and in good running 6rder before'fair time This exten sion will necessitate t h e ' enlarge ment of the power house and the in stallation of additional power and tt)achinery. l , A new car . barn . will liave to be built, which will cover the entire lot owned by the compa ny on T,ocust street, where the pre sent barn is located. The small cars now in use will give place to large double truck c a r s, and the joumber will be increased by at least six. The determination of the com pany to enlarge their plant here and extend their , line will be welcome news to our people. Every improve ment of this kind adds to the town, not to mention that it will give em ployment to an increased number of men . Milton Standard. 1 ' . Easter Late This Tear. tfiln only nine times in two and a quarter centuries has Easter fallen as late as it will this year. Only five times during this period has it come later than it does this year, and it is not possible for the great Christian holiday to fall more than two days later. In all of the years from 1786 to 2013 there is not one occasion when it falls later than April 25 and only twice does it come on this day of the month. During this period Easter Sunday falls three times on April 25, and four times on April 23. This year the festival will be observed on the ayid. As a , result of "the late faster Lent comes correspondingly fate 1 1"'--.':-" -1 '' : : ,' doming K. T. Oonclnve at Williamsport, " X t.

THE COLUMBIAN, SOUFFLE WITH DANGEROUS MAN. Thomas Barrett, residing at what is known as the Lower Shanties, a man with a vicious disposition, particularly when he is in liquor, attempted to assault Dr. Biddle at the Fountain Springs Hospital, Thursday afternoon. Dr. Biddle was informed of Bar rett's presence and unruly actions and approached, and began to re monstrate witn mm. liarrett was very insolent and finally attempted to draw a black jack and assault the superintendent who grasped him and after choking bun until he was almost breathless ejected him from the building, with the assist ance of others who went to his j assistance. Alter he had recovered himself Barrett very strongly de- I clared his intention of shooting Dr. I Biddle, though it was afterwards 1 iound that he had no revolver, or possibly he might have done so. Barrett wandered about the grounds, and in the meantime Dr. Biddle telephoned to town for an officer. Constable Breunan re sponded and had considerable trouble in placing the handcuffs on his prisoner. He was taken to Ashland and on information sworn out against him before Squire Rus sell by Dr. Biddle he was committed to jail. He spent the night in the lock-up and was taken to prison by Constable Brennan Tuesday morn ing , While in Squire Russel's office iBarrett became very obstreperous and raising his manacled hands he struck Constable Brennan a fierce blow on the head with the hand cuffs. He also tried to get behind the desk for the purpose of striking Squire Russell. About a year ago Barrett visited the hospital and attempted to draw a revolver on Dr. E. E. Shiffer stine. then attached to the surgical I staff. Just what grievance he has against the hospital is not known. He has never been a patient there, nor, so far as can be learned, .has any of his people. Barrett is about 21 years of age, and his parents are among the most respected people in the community in which he lives. By many it is thought that he is not well bal anced mentally, and this condition Is aggravated when drinking. Dr. Biddle will push the case against him because he believes that he is not a safe man to be at large. Organization of Oatawissa Council. Catawissa Boro's new council held its first meeting Monday. An organization was effected by elect ing J. J. Cornelius president, and George H. Sharpless, secretary.

River Bridge at Danville Will be a Beauty The new steel bridge over the Susquehanna at Danville is fast nearing completion. The last span has been swung into place and it is possible now for footmen to cross on the planks. It is claimed that the structure will be the handsomest river bridge in the State. It will contain a wide driveway to be used for teams and a trolley line and a six foot walk on each side of the driveway. A number of our townspeople were down on Sunday and walked across the bridge. They concur that the structure will be a hand some one. To The Pnbhc.

And the con sumer in rmladelpnia pays hfty cents a peck for apples. The Col umbia county farmers and the Phil adelphia consumers obviously ought to be brought into touch with each other. Newspaper advertising would often put money into the pock ets of fruit growers and obviate the necessity of casting pearls or other marketable commodities before swine. Philadelphia Record. The term "ptomaine poison" is in everybody s nioutu, but tew know what it really is. It devel ops, says "What to Eat," through the action of acid on tin. That is why every can of meat or veget ables or fruits should be turned out into au earthen bowl or crock im mediately upon opening the tin can, and that is why mayonnaise should never be put into tm receptacles Unly recently several women were made seriously ill by eating salad at a reception. Investigation showed that the mayonnaise, in which was considerable lemon juice, had been allowed to stand all day in a tin pail According to the physicians, enougn1 poison was generated to kill forty men, and had the women ealen tiie mayonnaise from the bottom of th- pail it would have been fatal to them.
