CENTRAL PENNSYLVAN
BLIND MEN HELD
UP ON HIGHWAY
Two Musicians Beaten With
Iron Bar in Attempted
Bobbery
Special to the Telegraph
Wllliamstown, Pa., Feb. 14.—A bold
attempt to hold up William James
and his son Edward, two Wind men,
after they had completed their regu
lar round of playing; and singing. took
place on Thursday evening between
Tower City and Wllliamstown.
It has been the custom of these men
for several years to visit the nearby
towns on pay nights and sing and play
at the various public places, and then
pass the hat. While on such a trip
on Thursday night, they were accosted
in a friendly manner by William
Downs, of Tower City. Thinking of
no harm, Mr. James and son walked
to Sheridan, it being their last stop.
After they hart played at one of the
hotels, they were encountered by
young Downs, who demanded their
money or their lives. Mr. James, be
ing totally blind, and Edward being
nearly blind, they, could not defend
themselves. They refused to give up
their money, whereupon young
Downs dealt each a blow over the
head with a heavy piece of iron, lacer
ating Mr. James' eye very badly and
cutting a deep gash in the son's scalp
and knocking him senseless. Mr.
•James tried to arise in defense, but
the robber kicked him in the left side,
fracturing three ribs. He left them
in their plight, because their cries had
aroused the people nearby. He, how
ever, secured no money. The two
men were picked up by friends and
their wounds dressed. They were
placed on a car and sent to their
home. Young Downs was captured
and is being held for a hearing.

DRY GOODS AND
FURNISHINGS
Mammoth Veins
are thick layers of coal, 10
feet, 12 feet and thicker, from
which it is possible to cut
fuel that is dirtless and slate
less.
Kelley's coal burns so well
and causes such little trouble
because it is a mammoth vein
product and nothing but the
best quality of pure coal.
Best for range or furnace.

MONDAY EVENING,
WORK ON MIDLAND R. R.
WILL SOON BE RESUMED
I [Continued From First Page.]
I trade were organized in the various
towns to help along the project, de
velopment farms were purchased and
then the Lykens Valley Construction
: Company and the Midland Pennsyl
vania Railroad Company came into
l being. At the same time a bonding
| and surety company was formed to
j secure funds to carry on the railroad
work.
Work was started on the railroad
after the rights of way had been se
cured from one end of the valley to
the other, a distance of forty-four
miles. The stretch from Millersburg
to Gratz, a distance of fifteen miles,
was graded, cuts and fills were made,
bridges onstructed and culverts built,
so that the bed was practically ready
for the tracks. This was about three
years ago, and then the finances are
reported to have gotten so low that
work had to be abandoned.
New Proposition Made
George A. Aldrichs, of Philadelphia,
who is said, unofficially, to be asso t
elated with (he Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company, has made an offer
to the railroad company to organize a
new concern and that if a satisfactory
agreement could be reached he would
put in the necessary money to carry
the work through. Mr. Aldrichs has
asked that he be given time until
April 1, this year, to examine all of
the company's papers, maps, surveys,
books and other property. On that
date, it is expected, he will make his
answer. Tf all is satisfactory, he will
then reorganize the company. It is
considered quite likely that the ma
jority of the old directors will be re
tained by Mr. Aldrichs. The agree
ment made between Mr. Aldrichs and
the old directors of the railroad com
pany calls for the completion of the
railroad to Gratz by April 1, 1917.
The construction of a railroad
i through the Lykens Valley will mean
! a great boom for the territory, for at
the present time the towns through
j out the valley are practically Isolated.
I Gratz Is six miles from Loyalton, the
j closest railroad station, and the roads
! between the two towns are almost im
j passable. Berrysburg, four miles from
here, is five miles from Elizabethvllle,
I the closest railroad station. Other
; towns in the valley include Killinger,
lleglns, Sacramento, Valley View and
Gordon.
Lykens Valley is a great agricultural
community and with .the opening of 1
a railroad farmers would have a good
outlet to the markets.
Then, too, a railroad would be a
great help toward developing the
mines in the upper end of Dauphin
county. At present coal is being taken I
from the south side of the coal moun- |
tains exclusively. A road through the j
Lykens Valley would mean the open- |
ing of collieries on the north side and
the mines would prove a great indus
trial development for the territory.
At the present time all of the steam
shovels, dump wagons, plows and
other tools used in building the road
bed from Millershurg to Gratz are
stored just outside of this boroughj
CONTINUATION

A Lice M. Fay, 22 years old, of New
j York City, has written a poem of
I eighty-three verses, entitled "My ,
| Country." Miss Fay is very earnest!
.in her desire to make the American
| people, her people, realize what a j
! great country is theirs, and in her,
; poem she has tried to bring home to
the reader "not only the beauty and;
I variety of American scenery, but the \
high place that America holds in llt
-1 erature and history, the sublimity of
her ideals, and above all the possi-
I bilities of the coming American race."
: Her own words are used purposely.
In the opinion of the writer, Miss
Fay has succeeded admirably. She is
best in her descriptions of our coun-
I I ry, over which she has evidently
traveled, constantly alive to the beauty
which we are so wont to overlook in
our search for the more material
things. Her powers of visualization:
are good and her optimistic patriotism
and buoyant youth are very likely to
> carry one along with her when read
ing her poem, dedicated to her coun
; try.
Perhaps there is a lesson in it,
written between the lines, for many
of those whose patriotism may have
been temporarily sidetracked in the
light of passing events. Miss Fay is j
to be commended upon her efforts.
j "Sweep on, vast Tide of Commerce — j
night and day—
j Afar on steel-shod track or ocean
trail.
j Bearing the burdens for the world's

Without thy aid what would our

Civilization owes its spread to thee; I
So serve the world, till man's long

j When all our work on earth at last is
done."
1 The above dedication to that vast,
j immeasurable thing which we call
Commerce, is the preference to a book
jof poems, "Tides of Commerce," by
I William Cary Sanger, Jr., (published
by the Country Life Press), which are
written in the hope that they might
|do their part in calling attention to
| the interest and romance in the de
velopment of transportation and to
the men whose lives are spent in the
! various departments of this work and
i service. "A United Federation of the
I World" is the poet's vision, and com

which this end is to be accomplished.
The Jews in tlie Kastcni War Zone.
Published by the American Jewish
] Committee, Lois Louis Marshall,
President.
The persecution which history and
1 current publications from time to
! time have taught us is the lot of the
r Russian Jew living in that huge mon
-5 archy. is well known but there is a
1 curious sympathy which can be felt
| for the sufferers in that war zone that
only a detailed .study l of actual con
ditions can bring. In this book on
| the Jews in the Eastern War Zone
' the disabilities of the Jews not only
;in Russia in normal war times, but
| also in other countries, in Austria
-1 Hungary, in Rumania, in Palestine,
etc., are set forth. The work is a very
j live and presumably authoritative
commentary upon conditions as they
j exist for the Jews in the zone of fight

In the introduction to this book,
Owen Wister writes: "Most of these
1 pages are, like the photographs which
go with them, torn fresh and hot so
ito speak, from the diary of a young

I he saw them get well, and he tells
about them,- their suffering, their

with the effect (for example), of De-
Foe's account of the Plague, the read-
Icr ceases to be looking at a picture,

Why We Punctuate; or Reason Ver
sus Rule In the Use of Marks.—By
William Livingstone Klein. (The
Lancet Publishing Company, Minnea
polis, Minn.
How many times have you, Mr. |
Businessman, written a sentence and I
punctuated it, then looked at it and ;
been dissatisfied, changed the punc- j
tuation and been still more dissatis- |
| fled and finally completely given upj
trying to solve the problem, at least
for the day? And yet, you sort of
knew by instinct that you were right
the llrst time.
| There are lots and lots of opportun
ities for slight mistakes in the matter
of punctuation, which are not serious,
but which, if corrected, add material
ly to the excellence of the piece of
writing, whatever it may be. One!
ought to have some sort of book that-]
will aid him in case he strikes a snag,'
and William Livingstone Klein has
written a book which should meet
every need, if studied comprehensive- j
ly. The author Includes a consider- >
ation of those simple, fine and beau
tiful sense relations in language that J
constitute literary form, give added!
charm to literary thought, and exhibit!
the exact meanings that are indispen
sable in business language.
X GIRL'S COMPLEXION
Very few girls get through their 'teens
without eruptions or pimples showing on
their faces.
These may be due to indigestion result
ing from improper diet. If so they will
quickly disappear when the proper food
is adhered to. If they are accompanied J
by pallor and listlessiiess you must look
to the condition of the blood.
Because these eruptions on the faces of
school girls are so common they seldom
receive the attention from parents that
they require. When they indicate thin :
blood or anemia there is a ready remedy
in Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Thesetonic
pills, free from harmful drugs, are pretty
sure to help growing girls because they
build up the blood at a time when the
demand on it ia greatest. As the blood
is made rich and red, fickle appetites be
come normal, lassitude gives way to
vigor, the cheeks and lips show the glow
of health "and the whole system is toned ;
up. The nervous system is invigorated
and with proper attention to diet many
dangers are averted.
Your own druggist sells Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills or they will be mailed, post- j
paid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per!
box, six boxes $2.50, by the Dr. Williams

KEEP LOOKING YOUNG
It's Easy lf You Know Dr.
Edwards' Olive Tablets
The secret of keeping young is to
feel young—to do this you must watch i
your liver and bowels—there's no need I
of having a sallow complexion dark
rings under your eyes—pimples—a bu
llous look in your race—dull eyes with
no sparkle.
Your doctor will tell you ninety per
cent, of all sickness comes from inactive
bowels and liver.
Dr. lidwards, a well-known physician
in Ohio, perfected a vegetable com
pound mixed witli olive oil to act 011 j
the liver and bowels, which he gave to
his patients for years.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for calomel, are gentle in their
action, yet always effective.
They bring about that exuberance of
spirit, that natural buoyancy which
should be enjoyed by everyone, by ton
ing up the liver and clearing the sys
tem of impurities.
You will know t)r. Kdwards' Olive
Tablets by their olive color. 10c and
25c per box. All druggists.

The Miners
Say—No Strike
but the evidence points in the opposite direction.
The miners also say they will continue to work until
the differences between the operators and the officers
of the Miners' Union are adjusted.
History shows that very few mines have ever been
able to operate pending a wage settlement.
One thing is dead sure, the miners will be granted a,
number of concessions which will increase mining ex
penses.
We are advising our customers to lay in an amply
supply of coal to last them until next summer.
As the time draws near for mining contracts to ex
pire, every person will want to buy coal and it may be
impossible to fill all orders with the kind of coal
desired.
