THE CAMERON COUNTY PRESS. ESTABLISHED BY C. B. GOULD, MARCH, 1866. VOL. 43 Union Friendly Society. A social society that will be known as the U. F. S., was organized last Thursday evening at the home of Mrs. Helen Metzger, on Fifth street. Invita tions bad been issued to twenty-five young people, representing all the re ligious denominations in Emporium, and sixteen persons were present at the first meeting. The organization of the U. F. S., is the outcome of the former Friendly Society, started by the Rev. Geo. H. Johnßton, formerly pastor of the Presbyterian chnrch. The old society was disbanded last spring. Business and social meetings will be held once every month and all persons who received cards are re quested to be present at the next meet ing which will be held the third Thurs day evening of November, at which time the society will be entertained by Max F. Balcom at his home on Sixth street. Pleasant Visitor. Mr. William Vlner, of Arden, N. Y., was a pleasant PRESS caller, last Fri day, accompanied by his brother, Mr. Edward Viner. William Viner and wife have been visiting their two sons at Omaha, Neb., and Denver, Col., both filling responsible positions on the Union Pacific R. R., through the intercession of the late E.H. Harriman, in whose employ Mr. Viner has been since he left Emporium, fifteen years ago. Their visit here, as guests of Edward Viner and family,was pleasant —meeting many old-time friends, this being their first visit to Emporium in that time. They found many changes in Emporium and noted with pleasure the many improvements made since they left. When W. A. McClollan and Wm. Viner went to Arden, N. Y., fifteen years ago to accept positions under Mr. Harriman they strnckalucky lead. The former is Supt. of the Arden Stores, while Mr. Viner is Supt. of the Arden Dairy Farms, and both must be capable men or they would not be fill, ing such responsible positions.

We think a grand-son of his re sides in your county." We called on Robt. C. Dodson, druggist, of this place, who examined his "family book" and believes the deceased was cousin of his father, Dr. M. D. L. Dod son, who died in Florida, Nov. 11th, 1892. A Warning to Hunters. There is law which forbids hunting on Sunday and a heavy fine is impos ed on the person caught doing so. People inclined togo hunting on Sun day should take warning from this notice as the game wardens are look ing into the matter. Complaint has been made to us of persons residing at and near Cameron of breaking this law and in order not to have any trouble we wish to caution them, thereby sav ing paying a heavy fine. A word to the wise should be sufficient. Upholstering and Repairing. Henry Jaeger, the Fourth Street Harness Maker, is a practical upholst erer and desires the public, having any work in his line to call and see his large line of samples and learn prices, which are reasonable. No need in sending such work out of town. Satis faction guaranteed. 37-tf. Champion Bear Hunter. Mr. C. E. Logue, of First Fork, claims he is the champion bear hunter in this county, having captured alive and killed five this Beason. Mr. Logue has two live bears now and the pelts of three and the heads for mounting. Mr. L., would like to hear from the rest of the Cameron county bear hunters and no doubt he will - hear from Woods Kelley, Allen Russel anti James Batchelder. Death of a Prominent Teacher. Died at Hicks Run, Pa., October 19. 1909, Lois Miller, daughter of Wil liam Miller, deceased, and Mm. Jus lina Miller. Miss LOIS MILLER was about nine teen years old at the time of her death. Although so young, she was teaching her second term of school at Castle Carden when overtaken by the dread disease, typhoid fever. She started for her homo on Huston Hill, but on reaching Hicks Run, found herself too weak to proceed further and remained at the residence of her sister and brother-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Barr. A trained nurse was pro cured and every effort was made to re store her to health, but in vain. Her pure and lovely soul was released from her pain-racked body Tuesday, Oct. 19tb, 1909, and passed into Ood's keeping. The funeral was held Thursday after noon at three o'clock, Rev. 8. Eber sole, of Sterling Run, having charge of the services. Although the weather was most unfavorable, the hall at Hicks Run was crowded with those who sought to pay their last respects to the young teacher, called so soon to resign her work on earth. The utmost sympathy is felt by every one for the heart-broken family; mother, who, left a widow when Lois was but a tiny child, faced the world bravely and brought up a family of six children to noble manhood and I womanhood. Seldom has been such a funeral as that of Lois Miller, were in the vast crowd there were 60 many mourners, where even strangers were moved to "weep with those who wept" for the untimely death of a noble young woman. Her body was laid to rest in Hicks Run cemetery beside her father, who died before her memory. It is such a death as this, our finite minds cannot understand, but "God knoweth best." An En)oyable Dance. The dance held at the opera house j last Tuesday evening in honor of the | teachers of Cameron county was a i very great success and was heartily i enjoyed by all present. The music | was furnished by Messrs. Harold Seger, j at the piano, and Lawrence Fisk at the 1 drums. The floor was in elegant con dition and with the crowd in the hap piest moods the time sped all too j quickly and the eound of the "Home ! Sweet Home Waltz" came ere the as- | semblage was aware that time for de parture had arrived. The manage ment of the dance was under the care ful vigilence of Messrs. F. J. Keim, Jr., and R. 11.
