Reducing Expenses.
The Penn'a R. R. Co., are making
many radical changes in the running
of trains. The Kane Republican says:
"Under the new program all heavy
freight that has until the present, been
hauled over the P. & E. will in the fu
ture go by way of Emporium, Olean
and Warren, thus obviating the use of
pushers which are necessary on the St.
Marys and Kane hills, while passenger
locomotives will run through from
Erie to Renovo. This latter idea is
being tried out at present, and in time
it is the intention to have the trai-i
crews make the through run also.
This move on the part of the railroad
company, will take a large number of
employees away from Kane, which
means a serious blow to the commer
cial life of the place "
Very 111.

By having presence of mind and using
a small quantity of water what might
have been a big fire was averted and
the damage done was a loss of draper
ies between two rooms and scorching
of wall paper.
