Ewing was but seventeen years old,

the other two young men started on a
rabbit hunting expedition on Toanks-

short distance until they reached a
point in the Bhuey meadow at the

Ewing and Osman stepped onto a
board used by some to cross the brook
at that point, The board or plank
was too steep to make the ascent, and
they began to retrace their steps. In
doing so, both fell from the improvise.

water at the deepest point, and Osman

Sending Immigrants To Farms,
The department of commerce and
labor, through its intelligence division,
has been endeavoring to direct immi-
grants to this country to the oppor-
tunities held out by the farms of this
country, or rather by the business of
farming. The destiny of these foreign
thousands, where they go, what they
de, and what sort of residents they be-
come, is a matter of very great im-
portance to all of us, and it will likely
be agreed to that it would be the most
advantageous if a majority of the new-
comers would go into farming sections
where help Is needed instead of drift-
ing into colonies of their own race and
tongue, and of their own peculiar cus-
toms. This is what the “intelligence”
division of the commerce and labor de-
partment is doing. The prime func.
tion of that bureau is to supply places
in the rural sections where aliens can
earn a livelihood, through correspond-
ence with farmers who want sturdy
men to help raise the grain, potatoes
and meat which feed the nation. In
every rational aspect the attempt to di
vert immigrants to agricalture de
serves support. Many of them have
tilled the ®oil in their own lands,
They would be at ouce happier, more
healthful and wore useful in the coun-
try, which needs both population and
labor,

Rev. Btiver was exceptionally broad
in scholarship, and was quoted to be
the most scholarly man who ever re
sided in Buoker Hill or vicinity, snd

known best as a man who possessed
superior ability. He received a nom.
ber of degrees, among which are the
A.M. and Ph. D.

aud educator, he was a frequent con.
tributor to newspapers, —the 8t. Louis

Mr. LaRus Munson is again in the
lime light, and an effort has been
made to substantiate the charge that
Senator Penros: offered his support to
secure an appointment from the presi-
dent, provided he withdrew as a can-
didate for governor before the Demo.
cratic convention at Allentown, It
will be very difficult to prove that
Benator Penrose offered, or that Mr,
Munson sought the senator's aid for
an appointment, but the fact that Mr.
Munson did such sn upususl thing
Just when he did makes the whole
matier look mighty shady. Mr. Man.
son's explanation hase never been
accepted by the public. If he was not
guilty of seekiog or accepting promises
of favors from the opposition party,
the surrounding circumstances put
him in bad light. ’
A sprained ankle will usually dis
able the lojured psrssn for three or
four weeks. This is due to lack of
proper treatment. When Chamber-

be effscted lo three or four days. This
liniment is one of the best and most
remarkable preparations in use, Bold
