Nearly a hundred Emporiumites at tended the game of base ball at St. Marys, last Sunday. The game was between Emporium and St. Marys teams but,by the intervention of Provi dence, only one inning was played.

It is understood in political circles that Hon. C. W. Stone has decided to nominate Hon. 11. H. North, as post master for Bradford. Mr. North says he has received no notice of his nomi nation, but certain Republicans who are on the inside, claim that they have known for two weeks past that Mr. North would receive the appointment. The commission of Postmaster Ossen beck expires August I.—Bradford Era. A Proposed Extension. W. L. Malin, of Bellefonte, repre senting the Central Pennsylvana Telephone and Supply Company, has been in Ridgway several days con ferring with Manager Erdman in re gard to the advisibility of extending the company's lines to Emporium. These two gentlemen have been over the ground thoroughly between Ridg way and Emporium, and are giving the matter much consideration. The citizens of Emporium are anxious for such an extension of the lines, and on the surface the enterprise looks as if it would be a paying one. Connections would be made with the several towns along the route, and thus much extra territory would be available to those already using 'phones. The company is also thinking of extending a new line to Johnsonburg, and putting in an exchange there similar to the one at Ridgway. These improvements would be very much appreciated by the people of Ridgway, as well as those situated in other parts of the country. The company already have lines ex tending to almost every township, in cluding connections with the long dis tance telephone lines. Although this last feature is a great benefit in a com mercial sense, the addition of any new lines would be something very much needed and doubtless would be much used. If the company decides to make these improvements in the near future and it now looks as if it would be a paying venture, an increase in business would probably be the result on the lines already in operation. The addi tion of an exchange at Johnsonburg would greatly facilitate business, and enable better and quicker connections with all parts of the county.—Ridgway Democrat.
