DESTROYED THE FISH TRAPS.
Work Thnt IVputy Sheriffs Mvan and
Ward Were Engaged in.
Two of Lnckawnnna county's deputy
sheriffs. Ryan and Ward, were for sev
eral hours yesterday waist deep In the
middle of the Susiniehanna river In
Kaii"i mi township. The Immersion of
the ottlcers was not accidental, but was
necessary In the work of destroying
three tlsh traps, which, contrary to the
law. had been built In the river.
AH along tho Susquehanna evidences
of the open defiance of the game laws
can be seen In the V shaped plies of
stone built In the water. The apex of
the V points down stream and at a
point where the two lines of stone,
which h ad from the banks of the river,
approach each other Is located a rack
tilted at an angle anil leading; down
ward Into a perforated box. Into these
boxes the eels, bass and river trout got
sliding In the night, and before day
light the owners of the traps ro forth
and gather In the harvest, which Is
marketed In the towns and cities.
Sheriff demons was on Monday In
formed of the presence of three traps
In the river In Ransom township. He
delegated to Deputies Ryan anil Ward
the work of demolishing the Illegal fish
ing appliances. The deputies were
pushing over the shines that made t)he
V and were demolishing- the racks
when a voice In the bushes on the
bank shouted:'
"Hold on, tharl"
"Well, we are holding on, aren't we?"
was the reply.
"'Say, you fellers 'd better pit outer
tliar right smart, or you'll git a heap o'
trouble."
"Oh, we're not afraid," shouted Ward.
"Come down here, we want to see you."
"You go ," was Hhe classic re
Joiner, followed by the sound of foot
steps scurrying through the brush and
away from the river.
The owners of the traps nnd racks
were not located, but their handiwork,
which must have required several
nights of hard work, was completely
demolished. The river Is shallow where
the traps were located, in fact, they
can be built only In shallow water, so
the deputies were obliged to cb their
work while standifig In the water. Af
ter they drove away from Ransom
there was much wondering and nodding
of heads but the traps are no more.
THREW AWAY HIS PLUNDER.
Suck Full of l.anndrlod Clothes Found In
n Cool Cellur.
James Staples, who resides at OHv
street and Forest court, was awakened
about 2,30 yesterday morning1 by a
large stone being thrown against the
side of his house. He got up, and, upon
making an examination of the prem
ises, found a sack of children's clothing
In the cellar.
They had the appearance of having
been recently laundrled, so It Is ap
parent that they were not stolon from
a clothes line. It Is thought that a
thief 'stole them from some house,
and, upon being pursued, threw them
Into the coal hole of Mr. Staple's house.
The stone was evidently thrown by
the pursuer. (Mr. 'Staples made In
quiries about the neighborhood, but
being unable to find anyone who knew
anything of the clothing turned the
sack over to the police, Who still have
possession of them.

In glowing terms of the adaptability of

which has an area of forty acres, part
ly wooded.

tions with John R. Canavan and George
Reynolds for the purchase of Canavan
npud Reynolds & iMdlAii'thy proposed
additions to Nay Aug park.
These tracts are situated on the ex
treme northeastern part of tho park,
and If added will extend Its bound
aries to the Erie and Wyoming Valley
light track on the mountain side, and
will also Include about six acres lying
across the old "burnt dam," which will
give an easy entrance to the park from
the Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern road, which Is desirable for the ac
commodation of future excursion par
ties. The Canavan tract Is eighteen and
three-fourth acres in area. He asked
$26,000 for the traot, but agreed to
make another proposition through his
attorney, P. W. Stokes. The Reynolds

Dangers Peculiar to
Early Fall Weather.
Extreme Liability to Bad In

Lactated Food Should Be Used in
Child's Digestion Utt Weak by
Hot Summer.
Peril or Sudden Chauge in Fall to
Ordinary Diet
Mothers ehould remember that the
baby had a hard fight through all
these hot days and nights of summer.
Even If your baby has so far resisted
the prevalent fatal disorders, cholera
infantum and diarrhoea, 'Its strength
and power of digestion has certainly
been much weakened. It will take but
little to overturn Its stomach and pre
cipitate an attack of the dreaded
cholera 'Infantum.
This la tine history of eo many fatal
ities among Infants In September.
Prudent mothers will take the advice
of physicians und continue to make
lactated food baby's regular diet. The
early full weather Is as perilous as the
worst month of summer. There are
extreme changes In temperature; the
return home from the seashore or
country brings new conditions In
buby's surroundings that it Is not eas
ily accustomed to. Physicians know
that the food of Chlldi-en must be
most carefully watched while baby is
getting used to fall weather. There Is
security from diarrhoea and from
faulty nutrition In lactated food.
Bubies and young children always de
velop a strong uppetite when fed on
this best of ull infant foods. Lactated
food encourages under-fed babies to
take a proper amount of nourishment.
Tine difficulty and the prime Import
ance of arousing such a healthy desire
for food has not for an Instant been
left out of slgiht In the preparation of
lactated food.
Lactated food solves the problem of
keeping very young children well nour
ished at all seasons.
Babies often become so weakened by
faulty nutrition that they grow list
less, hardly hold up their heads and
take little notice of things about them.
Time and time again has lactated food
been given to these little pining In
fants to the Immense gratlllcation of
parents. It takes but a short time
for the splendid food to brighten the
dull eyes and (to make a romping,
noisy, plump baby, that was but a
little while before a thin, pitiable,
whke-fucod child and a source of ex
treme anxiety to Its parents.
Thousands of homes are today freed
from the dread of cholera Infantum
and such washing dlsenses of childhood
by lactated food. Countlrss mothers
now sleep soundly, knowing their pre
cious charges are safe. Lactated food
fully meets every need of growing
children. It Is a perfect substitute for
mother's milk sugar of milk Is the
basis of both. Children weaned or de
prived of breaBt milk grow steadily and
keep strong and well on an exclusive
diet of lactated food. It brings them
safely through the teething period and
makts them develop strong bones and
a robust constitution. No mother with
a sickly child should delay putting It
on a diet of lactated food. It means
a vigorous child In the place of a weak
ling. JURY EXONERATED HER.
Did Not Oellcvo That Mrs. Jenkins Caused
Her Husband's Death.
The Jury empaneled by Coroner J. A.
Kelley, Inquiring Into the manner of
David Jenkins' death, the Carbondal
ian who died suddenly last Thursday,
and was supposed to have been pois
oned, rendered a verdict exonerating
the widow of the deceased from all
suspicion of having caused his death.
The analysis of the contents of the
stomach revealed poison, but It was
the same quality as used In the em
balming operation. Jenkins was em
balmed and the Jury took It for granted
that the poison found in His stomach
came there by absorption after the em
balming fluid was Injected, and that
his death was due to natural causes.
