The Pennsylvania company is a lion t to
discard lite old method of stamping tickets
w ith ink and will punch th.' year and day
clear through the ticket by means of
powerful stensils. This Is done to keep
scalM-r am! others from altering tlidate
and thus extending the limit of mileage
Imoks and excursion tickets The new
method was put in practice this week.
The orders state that all tickets are to lie
stainM'il as prescrilx-d. When one thinks
of the thousands of special excursion
tickets sold on July 4 and other occasions,
the work devolving upon the agent may be
imagined. A peculiar feature Is that the
month does not apfw-ar. Everything
is reckoned in days of the year, "3tb, 43d
or 2."lst," as the case may be. Following
the day stamp is the final figure of the
year, "3" remaining until next January.

On last Friday morning Mr. Archie
Kirkpatrick, a well-known citizen or El
der tow nship, on going to bis barn found
that there had beeu some Hrson or per
sons helping themselves to his grtin. He
had left 15 bushels of rye and Wi bushels
of buckwheat measured uu in sacks the
evening liefore w hich was all gone, along
with from 5 to 10 bushels of buckwheat
that was missing from his granery. Mr.
Kirkpatrick procured a search-warrant
which was placed in the bands of Cons, a
Philip Miller, of Hastings, w ho, from cir
cumstantial evidence that had developed,
pi-ncei-dcd to search the premises of Ish.
Haunt, in Susquehanna township, and in
the barn found suinething near the miss
ing quantity of buckwheat in different
places in the building, and a manure heap
alongside of the barn that had a suspicious
look, on. being examined, was found to
con tnin 15 bushels of rye in its center with
a blanket under and anotheron top. John
Reals, Abe Snyder and Ish. Damn have U e.
arrestinl charged w ith the theft, the former
two being now in jail, while Itautn entered

Mr. Peter McTamany. an old and well
known engineer on the Pennsylvania rail
road, who was a native of this county,
having been born near Lilly where he has
numerous lelatives, met with an accident
that will cripple him for life. Mr. McTama
ny left his home Intending to go out 011 his
engine and when be reached the yard he
found a freight train standing on the
track w hich he had to cross. He got on
one of the cars to cross over, and in getting
down the other side he did so w ithoiit see
ing engine 133, which was running dowu a
parallel track, tank first, on its way to
Fourth street.
The corner of the tank struck him on the
shoulder, knocking him down, the hind
wheel nf the tank truck passing over his
right leg at the ankle. lie was also cut
slightly on the head. Assisted to his home
he was made as comfortable as possible
and later In the afternoon an amputation
was pcrformisj, the crushed memlier being
taken off about four inches below the knee.
m
This subject could lie dwelt uxn to a
considerable length and yet much remain
untold, but all agree that the use, the
proper use of pure rye whskey Is an abso
lute necessity, especially so now, when
nature insist upon being stimulated. All
regular uhvsicians presenile rye w hiskey.
and justly claim that Klein's Silver Age
and Duunesne Whiskies are most reliable.
They do this not only Wcause they have
tried them, but liecause the leading h.ispi
tals use them lind them the liest stimu
lants in the world. Silver age sells for
tl. no and Duquesiie for l.aa per full quart.

WE are especially pleased
with our pattern eroods, for we
know that the most exquisite
gowns can be evolved from th 2m,
especially when we consider that
there are the most beautiful gimps
and gal oons that match perfectly
and elegant laces in all the latest
designs. The chief charm of pat
tern goods is the fact that no two
are alike. Where the figures are
the same the colorings are entire
ly different. There are three
patterns in changeable diagonals,
tan, blue and mixed light shades,
all different but all handsome.
Nearly all are in a variety of di
agonals. There are two patterns
in Russian green and mode shades
that are very beautiful. There
are three patterns in changeable
silk and wool in shades of red
ami green that are perfectly mag
nificent. One pattern in diago
nal, silks and wool in exquisite
shades of steel and mode is a
beauty and three patterns in a
Persian weave ia different shades
that are exceedingly beautiful.
Then there are two patterns in
melon-shaped figures in shades
of tan and blue and tan and
mode that are extremely lovely
and are pattern in silk diagonal
in palest shades of pinks and
blue that might take the lead for
dainty attractions. Closely fol
lowing it is a pattern in diagonal
changeable blue and gold new
shades that show off ch rming

Whik Cords in changeable shades
with fancy Russian green borders
that will make up stylishly to a
