MR. EDITOR Bill did not g- t out any
letters for awhile, and thinks i- time to
resume bin editorial work in. We
are enjoying fine weather at pr ent. Tho
mornings are rather cool an< bracing.
This morning the ground was J ro/.en for
the first time thin Fall. The < ods are
clothed in all shades of green, \ 11<»w and
red, and present a beautiful co il ination
to the lover of nature. The wl ::t fields
are covered with the growth of ho plant
and promise large yields ne> year if
they come through the white without
much damage. Corn husk in is pro
greying. and the crop will pr. veto IK*
rather under the average yield. A good
deal was caught by the frost before ma
turing, the result will be a go< deal of
soft corn. The biggest crop 8* ins to be
the apple. Our two presses were kept
busy from Monday morning to Saturday
bight two weeks, but the rush is about
over. Judging by the pile of ;>omooe at
the presses the quantity of ci- er made
was very large, running into so oral hun
dred barrels.
Mr. Samuel H. Jarrett was ' 1 en seri

Gunning accidents are now in order,

| DIDN'T KNOW THE JUDGE
Young Registration Officer Failed to
Recognize the Candidate.
Kingston, N. Y., Oct. 15—A lone
I horseman rode into this city yester
day and pulled up in front of the old
I pottery where the registration board
of the Third district of the *Ninllr
ward was at work. A young mem
ber of the board looked up and asked:
I "Do you want to register? 11
I "Yes, sir, 11 was the reply.
I 4 *Your full name, please."
"Alton Brooks Parker."
The young registration official look
ed up again and glanced surreptiti
ously at a campaign lithograph of the
Democratic candidate for President
which was one of the few decorations
of the old building. Apologetically
he explained:
"You know we ask the question as
a matter of form, Judge,"
The Judge nodded, but his eyes
twinkled as he tumbled to the fact
that the young man had failed to re
cognize him.
One more question was aked, and
that was as to the Judge's age, which
was given as 52 years. Other infor
mation wanted was furnished by the
Judge >iml he was soon down on the
books as No. 22, aud a few minutes
later was siding homeward alone, as
he came.
First Aid for Railroaders.
A coarse of lectures to educate the
! Pennsylvania railroad employes ill the
care of injured in emergency eases lias
been began at Altoona by Dr. H. P.
Powuell, chief medical examiner for
the relief department there, and it is
announced that all the engineers, con
doctors, firemen, flagmen aud brake
men between Philadelphia and Pitts
burg will be obliged to attcud similar
lectures at an early date. At the same
time the company is equipping all
baggage cars and cabius with stretch
eis and first aid packages.
The first aid equipment is not a new
idea, but the course of practical lect
ures upou the proper use of the appli
ances is. It is characteristic of the
Pennsylvania to tabu the lead in Ibis,
but the wouder is that it lias not been
doue before. It involves considerable
expenso to the company aud some lit
tle iiiconvenieuco to the trainmen,but
the benofits that are bound to follow
are so numerous that they more than
warrant the outlav iu money aud time.
The amount of needless pain that
will be prevented, to moutioii but one
of the results of intelligent and sys
tematic first aid training, is incalcul
able. Tiainmeu, passengers and oth
ers injured uow at remote points aie
frequertly compelled to rely upon the
totally untrained ministrations of the
train crew uutil they are hurriod to
some hospital or place where a physi*
ciau can attend to their injuries. Be
the efforts of these nurses ever so ten
der they almost invariably fail to al
leviate the pain and as a result untold
agony is the lot of the injured person
for a long period just at a time when
pain has a particularly weabeuiug
effect upon the systmi. This is not
because the trainmen do not appreciate
the importance of stopping the suffer
ing ; they simply do not know how to
do it.
The natural effect of this lack of
proper attentiou at a time when it is
most needed is that the shock to the
nervous system frequently is more
troublesome than the actual physical
injury. But if the conrse of lectures
which the Pennsylvania officials pur
pose giving is wisely directed to cov
er the peculiar ue3ds of railroads the
day is not far distant when this un
necessary dauger will be reduoed to a
minimum on their road at least.

REGARDED A3 SQUATTERS.
Ten Families May be Dispossessed of
Land in Snyder Gounty.
Members of H prominent Philadel
phia family, the Puidons, have enter
ed emit in Snyder cotinfv for 260
acres of lanii, which was held by ilie
family as far back as Revolutionary
times. The object of the dispute is
to dispossessed! families who are at
present holding the land, which the
Puritans aver, still belongs to their
family. Some one in the family al
lowed the title to the land to lapse in
some way, probably because of non
payment of taxes, and it is the desire
of all to regain it. The twenty acres
are situated around Purdon ia, and
l hey had lost sight of the land until a
relative discovered the state of atTairs,
and learned that the persons now oc
cupying the tract are little more than
squatters, although they have held it
for about seventy-five years. Miss
Maria Purdon, iu whose name the
suit is brought, is a great grand
daughter of John Purdon, author of
"Purdon's Digest."

> GOULD CLAIMANT DEAD
112 Mrs. Anyi'll Declared She Was Finan
cier's Lawful Widow.
Mrs. .liilm Angell, who several
years ago brought suit against tlie
( heirs of Jay Gould, claiming she was
his widow, died at House's Point, N.
1 V., on Saturday. She was about 70
years old.
Miss Helen Gould's love for her
■ father is largely responsible for dis
' proving the charges that when a
minor Jay Gould married, and that
the woman whom the world looked
upon as his wife had no rightful
claim to the name. After his death
she assigned herself the task of going
over all his letters and pa|iers, and
was able to give her lawyers memor
anda which accounted for nearly
every hour of his life during the time
covered by the Angell charges. The
plan to capture Gould's millions had
its beginning in a vision.

NEW METHOD OF DISCIPLINE.
Principal Downes, of the Harris
burg High school, made announce
ment at the chapel exercises Monday
morning that the card system of
punishment would be started that
day. lu speaking of the system he
said he would not dwell on the ad
vantages to be derived saying only
that the faculty was satisfied that the
move was a good one. He said he
hoped many difliculties would be
overcome and many misunderstand
ings averted.
On one side of the card are places
for the date, section of pupil, teach
er's name, otTence and scholar's name.
The other side is a blank on which
the principal will require the pupil to
make written promise not to commit
the otTence again in such cases as he
sees lit. Ail cards will be tiled in the
otlice of the principal and will be
used for future reference. Owing to
the fact that this system was started
in the middle of a term an account of
the demerits given previous to Mon
day will be kept and the pupil will be
held accountable at all times for
them.
