DEATH'S DOINGS.
PELLAM.
j MR. LEMUEL PELLAM, of Glen Hazel,
I Pa., son-in-law of Mr. Edwin Close, of
' West Creek, departed this life Satur
| day evening, Jan. 4th, 1902, after a
painful illness of several weeks, with
pnemonia.
! He was in prime of life, being about
i 44 years of age. He was converted and
joined the M. E. church about three
months since and walked daily with
| God, rejoicing in the power of God to
' save him from sin. His experience
I seemed to grow brighter each day and
! he carried with him the evidence that
jhe pleased God. As a protection for
his family he recently took out a policy
| in the Maccabees and seemed to have
I everything ready for his departure. He
leaves a wife and three children two
' brothers and other relatives and many
j friends to mourn his loss, while he has
: gone over to live in the"house not
made with hands eternal in the heav
j ens." Mr. Pellam was a man highly
I respected, honorable in all his dealings
! and the whole community will feel his
| loss, which was evinced by the large
I number that gathered at the service at
| his home on Tuesday morning, where
! they took the last farewell, prior to
I the removal of his remains to How
| ards Siding, where relatives and friends
j gathered in appropriate service, after
| which he was laid to rest in the beauti
j ful little Cemetery at West Creek, to
I await the resurrection morn.
I I miss the my Husband oh, when do I not,
j Though I know it was the wisdom of Heaven,
I That the deepest shade fell ou my suuiest spot,
| And such tie of devotion was riven.
I For when thou was with me my sonl was below,
I was chained to the world I then trod,
i My affections, Sly thoughts, were all earth bound,
but now
j They have followed thy spirit to God.

UNVERDORBEN.
I MRS. HENRY UNVERDORBEN, aged 29
i yeurs, died at the family residence in
| Sizerville, ofpheumonia, January 10th,
1902. The deceased was born in Spring
; Broolc, N. Y , where the most of her
. life was spent. Mr. and Mra. Urive.*-
dorben removed to Shippen, in 1895,
and during their residence there have
i made a host of friends. The bereaved
husband and children have the
sympathy of all in this their awful af
fliction. The sentiment of the com
munity is best expressed in tiie follow
, ing words:
Green be the turf above thee,
Friend of our better days,
None knew thee but to love tliee,
Nor named thee but to praise.
Her remains were prepared for bur
ial by funeral director Laßar and ship
ped to Blossom, N. Y., Jan. 11th.

The hemlock Combination.
An Altona business man, identified
i with the combination to put up the
price of hemlock to S2O in the eastern
market, says:"The published stories
are correct, except that too much im.
portance is given the idea that Wis
consin and Michigan hemlock will in
trude on our plans. We have figured
that. The Western hemlock cannot
get into this market at a profit until
the price is §2O, and that is the figure
jwe have set. Yellow pine from the
j Carolinas will doubtless experience a
boom, but the scarcity of cars will
prevent any great quantity of it from
| getting into the Northern markets. On
the heels of this advance in hemlock,
look out for a corner in bides. I under
stand the tannery men who are in this
combination have decided upon such a
move."
Notice to Gas Consumers.
Beginning with February there will
positively be no discount allowed on
any bills after the }f)th of the month
n which they fall due. The office
hours will be from 8 to 11:30; 1 to 5:30.
The offlce will not be open evenings,
except on the 10th of each month, when
it will be open from 7to 9. When bills
are not paid by the 15th of each month
the gas will be shut off.

It's Not So Funny
that we sold nearly all of those forty
dozen fancy striped heavy winter
underwear at 23c per garment and 45c
per suit, but it was funny that nearly
everybody, that is, about thirty-five
dozen of them, were very small or
medium men and the result is that we
have left to offer this week about five
dozen good big fellows, 40. 12, 44 shirts,
and drawers to match. If you arc not
big enough to fill one of these suits wo
will not bother you to come in as this
is all we have left. The 6'.0 outing Ann
uel that we talked about last, week is
all sold, but we still have a few of those
good nnickinawand mackintosh double
and single breasted coats which wo will
sell you just, as cheap as we did last
l week, and as long as we have any left.

Electric Light Talk.
Editor Preir:—
SIR:—I wish you to give publicity to i
the statement that I am not, and have '
not been opposed to putting additional
electric lights on the Borough's electric j
line in the East ward or any other i
ward where the need of same is plainly !
evident. I am opposed however, to
putting in an entirely new addition to
our present line, an addition to run up
Portage to Plank Road Hollow and up
the Plank road to Spring street, requir
ing in the neighborhood of one-fourth
mile of wire, every foot of which is to |
be strung near the township line and !
the current paid for by the borough to '
be used to light the railroad yard
along the Portage and the farm lands
of S. S. Hacket or any other man iu
Shippen township.
I am opposed to Councils authoriz
ing any job of new work without a
definite proposition in writing and a
binding contract.
If there were at this time an electric
lamp wired and ready for use in Plank
Road Hollow, I should oppose the
furnishing of power for such lamp by
the borough plant, at least until such
time as the Council had fulfilled their
moral obligations to the tax-payers by
getting the inside lighting to its point
of highest efficiency and making every
effort to produce an income from the
plant, which is the proposition on
which the people voted.
I shall oppose the extension of the
electric light plant in .any direction
east, west, north or south until some
income is derived from commercial
lighting, and our original obligation is
fulfilled.
This year's Council cannot legally 1
pledge next year's revenues or any
part of them for any contract.
A lamp in Plank Road Hollow would :
consume more current and be more j
expensive to operate than any lamp |
on the circuit and in my opinion we !
are morally bound to make more of an j
effort to to sell the current before we I
furnish power for such locations.
As to Mr. Hacket's statement that "I I
seem to think that I know more than j
all the members of the Council com- '
bined." I would hardly like togo as j
far as that, but if I did not think I !
knew more on some subjects than j
some of the Council, I would go out '
behind a barn somewhere and shoot '>
myself.

New Congressional District Con
ference.
Conferrees elected to represent Cam
eron, Centre, Clearfield and McKean
counties, forming this Congressional
district, met at Dußois, yesterday
afternoon for the purpose of formulat
ing rules to govern the future nomina
tions in the district. The following
Conferrees, together with the several
Chairmen, were present:
Cameron— Capt. C. P. Barclay, Sin
namahoning; B. W. Green, Emporium;
L. R. Gleason, Dr. V. K. Corbett,
Driftwood; and H. H. Mullin, Em
porium.
Centre,— W. E. Gray, Bellefonte;
John Gowland, Harry Hewitt, Philips
burg; W. F. Reeder, Bellefonte; Frank
Clemson, Benore.
Clearfield, —Hon. W. C. Arnold, Hon.
M. L. McOwen, A. H. Woodward,
Clearfield; W. C. Miller, Harry Boutton,
Houtzdale.
McKean, —Hon. H. H. North, Capt.
T. B. Clark, Bradford; Hon. T. F. Rich
mond, Geo. W. Mitchell, Smethport; H.
H. Cayson, Kane.
On motion of Hon. H. H. North,
Capt. T. B. Clark, Bradford, was elect
ed Chairman of Conference, and W. E.
Gray, Esq., Bellefonte, Secretary.
Following committee was appoint
ed to draft suitable rules and present
same to Conference for action: Cam
eron, B. W. Green; Centre, W. F.
Reeder; Clearfield, A. 11. Woodward;
McKean, Hon. H. 11. North. It was
very evident that the larger counties
were determined to pass the rule fixing
the basis ot representation upon the
Republican vote, which would have
cut Cameron county's vote in future
conventions to almost nothing. The
committee presented their report,
which passed without much opposition
until that section relating to represen
tation was read, when Mr. Green of
fered a substitution or amendment
giving each coudty five delegates. Mr.
W. F. Ruder offered an amendment to
the amendment, which was accepted
by Mr. Green, providing a plan to
break dead-locks.
Mr. Green made an able and telling
speech in behalf of equal representation
to all counties, followed by Mr. Bar
clay and others, upon a vote being
taken upon the amendment was voted
down and the vote upon the adoption
of the section reported by the majority
of the committee resulted in a tie—
Cameron and Centre voting solidly
against it and Clearfield and MeKean
against it, therefore the section fell.
Hon. W. C. Arnold then presented a
a plan that, after several changes, was
unanimously adopted, which we give
below:
In Republican primary elections in
the counties ot Centre, Clearfield,
Cameron and McKean, composing the
21st congressional district of Pennsyl
vania at which a candidate for nomin
ation for representative in congress
is to be voted for, shall be held on the
same date, provided the chairmen of
the Republican county committees of
said counties agree thereto. In case
the county chairmen fail to agree up
on a date for the holding of primary
elections then such primary elections
shall be held as provided by the rules
of the respective counties comprising
the 21st congressional district.
2. Congressional conferrees shall be
appointed as per rules of the party in
their respective counties and shall meet
in Dußois, Pa., on the second Thurs
day following the date on which the
last primary in the district was held,
but not later than Aug. 15, and the
conference may adjourn from time to
time to such piace and to such time as
they see fit.
3. That each county in the district
in all congressional conferences shall
be entitled to three conferrees or dele
gates to be elected by each county in
accordance with their respective rules;
provided, however, that after the first
day's session of the conference no
nomination is made, then an adjourn
ment shall be had for not more than
one week not less than five days, and
when the conference is re-convened
and ten ballots shall have been taken
and no nomination is made then each
county's representation shall be there
after as follows: Three votes ab
solutely and one additional for each
1,000 Republican voters or majority
fraction thereof, polled at the last
presidential election. After ten more
j ballots have been had and no nomina
tion made, then the candidate receiv
! ing the lowest number of votes shall
J be dropped, and so to continue on each
I succeeding ballot until a nomination
is made. And it is further provided
j that any one or more conferees ordele
| gates present from any county shall
I cast the full vote to which it is entitled.
4. The conferrees, or a majority of
' them, upon convening as provided in
rule 2, shall proceed to organize the
i conference by electing .a chairman,
secretary and two tellers.
5. A majority of all conferrees shall
constitute a quorum for the transac
tion of business coming before the
conference, and a majority vote of the
conferrees present and voting, shall
nominate a candidate for congress, in
accordance with rule 3.
6. In case of the death or with
drawal of the nominee of a conference
before the day of election, the chair-
I xnan of the conference nominating
I such person shall immediately recon
vene the conference, and said confer
ence shall nominate in accordance
with these rules a person to fill the va
cancy so occurring.
7. It shall be the duty of the chair
man and secretary of the conference to
certify the nomination made under
these rules, as the law may provide.
8. These rules may be amended at
any time by a committee consisting of
three members from each county, au
thorized by the respective county con
ventions for that purpose.
9. Each county shall in a reasonable
time before the national presidential con
vention select tbree conferrees to elect
delegates to the national convention,
and the conferrees shall meet for such
purpose at a time and place agreed up
on by the respective county chairmen.
After passing a rule authorizing the
appointment of a committee of three
from each county to elect district dele
gates, the conference adjourned in
perfect harmony at a late hour. The
lateness of the hour prevented our
giving more fully the proceedings.

Overcome With the Fumes of a
Deadly Drug.
J. B Merrill, junior member of the
lumber firm of Geo. B. Merrill and Co.,
of Lock Haven, who have been operat
ing quite extensively at Dents Run
for a number of years, had a very nar
row - escape from death yesterday
through the use o a drug which he
had been using for asthma. Mr. Mer
rill rooms over the company's store at
Dents Run. He had been absent three
or four days, visiting his brother, G. B.
Merrill, senior member of the firm,
who is lying sick with typhoid fever at
his home in Lock Haven, and returned
Monday evening. His apartments
had been kept well heated in his ab
absence, as he was about to retire at
10:30 he opened a vial which contained
the drug. His method of using the
contents was to drop a particle on a
bit of paper and inhale the fumes.
When he opened the bottle this time
the fumes issued from it and filled the
room. Mr. Merrill discovered that he
was being overcome, had the presence
of mind to replace the cork in the bot
tle and endeavor to reach the door.
He saw he was going to be unable to
reach the door and make his way to
safety by that route and turned to the
window, but just as he was within
reaching distance of it he fell uncon
scious, breaking the window by his
fall. The noise made by the shatter
ing of the glass attracted the attention
of parties outside, who at once went
to his assistance and carried him into
the air. He was apparently almost
lifeless and Dr. Corbett was summoned
from Driftwood by telephone, Roy,
Gleason and the enginman in charge |
of an engiiig making the run by rail
with Dr. Corbett. The doctor arrived
about mill night and worked with Mr.
Merril for five hours before he could
bring him around. It is supposed that j
the action of the fluid had been |
intensified by standing tightly corked
in a close, warm room for several days.
