Trolley Projects.
It is gratifyiug to loaru tint the
right of way for the exteusiou of the
Watsoutowu. Milton aud Lewisborg
trolley line to Northumberland has
beau thoroughly secured. The North
umberland towu council, to its creJit,
nas looked at tho matter iu a more
favorable light, aud lias removed the
obstaole that threatened to obstruct
the passage of the line through that
borough. This is better for Northum
berland, aud will also be better for
Suubury, which will have conueotion
with the new line through the already
ooustruoted, but for some time inter
rupted, Suubury and Northumberland
eleotric road. The Hue betweeu Dan
ville and Suubury, already laid out
through Riverside, Rnsli aud Uppei
Augusta townships,and ready for oon
struotiou. has run against the tempor
ary obstaole of an injunction, which
will give til* lawyers some work, but
will not materially retard the comple
tion of the Hue. The electrio connec

I A mau and a woman who work a

visited Wilkesbarre la«t week audit i»
I estimated that during the four day* ot
the Forester*' convention there, they
' 1110-t have uleaied iu the neighborhood
of »500.00.
Tneir soheiue Is a very bold form of
blackmail, aud It has ooiue to tlie
knowledge of me police who are com
piling evidence in order to proceed
against the pair, who are tuowu.
The system of tlie crooked pair is
somewhat as follows:
They 110 to a good hotel, registering
as man and wife; always chosing a
hotel iu which there are a number of
guosts, which was easy duriug the con
vention wheu all the public houses
were orowded.
After having boeu ut tlie hotel a
short time the man would make the
acquaintance of some of the other
gucsts,iii.«kiug hiiuielf at agreeable as
possible.
He would then introduce acquaint
ances to his wife, who would alwava
appear to be very much pleased to
jne"t 'he friend of her dear husband.
Soou afterward tha two men would
lipcome engaged In a game of pool or
billiards duriug which Ie would re
oelve a telegram, calling him iu sud
den emergeuoy tu Scrantou.
The game would be immediately
stopped, aud the crook, handing the
message to his friend would ask of
him to give it to his wife aud explain
to her that he had no time for fare
wells, saying that lie- would return iu
the morning.
The friend would take the telegram
and would aearoh for the wife, but he
would find her out walking BO he
would go about his busiueas until
eveulng, when Ie would find oat ut
what spot the woman was rooming
aud would then goto her room with
the message.
Knocking at the door he would be
iuvitod to enter, aud,after a few min
utes of conversation, when he would
be preparing to leave, lie would be
confronted by the husband,who wuuld
say that lie. had been able uuexpeoted
ly to return from Scrantou that even
ing, and he would appear to be very
augry aud horrified aud would waul
to kill tlie friend.
Tlieu he would threaten arrest, the
woman baoking up his charges, but
would agree to settle for a certain
sum. The viotim then generally paid
over au amount rangiug from SSO to
S3OO iu order to avert soandal, aud the
loving couple woold depart to anoth
er hotel, where they would fleeoe a
new viotim.
One man, who is n stranger, is known
to have paid ovar S2OO, aud others
have paid various suius.allhough uone

Passed Through Sunbury.
Tile explosive which canned such
dreadful results iu the wreck at South
Hariißborg early Thursday morniug,
passed through Suuburvou Wednesday
last. It wan uiaDufactared by the Key
atooe Powder company of Emporium.
There wero four hundred fifty pound
boxes iu the car and it was consigued
to Ooutraotor Kerbough. ol Columbia.
It ia likely that a considerable por
tion of the investigation of the Penn
sylvania Railroad authorities into the
oausoa of the Harrisburg wreck, and,
the consequent loss of life and injury
to 150 p.irsons, will be directed to the
oouvevauce and handling of dynamite
und other explosives. It has been stal
ed that the awful disaster may result
in ttie oompaay issuing orders not to
oarry in the future, explosive'* of this
kind, except under extraordinary cir
ca mstanoes.
From statements made it is estimat
ed that the investigation will result
iu the mateiial changing of the meth
ods of packiug. President Baer of the
Reading, sees the importance of mak
iug a radioal change, and lias so in
structed his subordinates.
He has suggested the building of a
special car or cars, with padded sides
aud other ways of reducing ooncassion
to a minimum for the transportation
of explosives.
The D. L. & W. Railroad absolute
ly refuses to allow dynamite or other
explosives on its lines. To this role
there is positively uoesceptiou. Oh
er railroads, however, carry it because
they aay they are obliged to. being
common carriers. Five years ago there
was a'bad freight wreok on the Lack
awanna's Buffalo diviaiou.
A gieater part of a small town was
wreaked by the explosion of three oars
of dynamite aud a number of opera
tives lost their lives. That was a les
son foi the Laokawanna Company. It
lias heeded the lesson and the oDioials
assert that no amount of profits from
hauling dangerous explosives atone for
the great risk and responsibility entail
ed.
Elmer E. Brode, president of Enter
prise High Explosive Company of
Philadelphia, who iu the course of long
experience lias shipped 1u,000,000
pounds of dynamite without any ac
cident during transportation,lays that,
as far as he understands the catas
trophe at Harrisburg, it was similar
to that of Locust Qap, ou tha Read
ing. about twelve years ago, when a
railroad wreok oauglit Sre.
The only other iustanoe of explosion
of dynamite duriug transportation, as
he remembers, was at Naatiooke, six
years ago. There the accident was
caused by the breaking into two parts
of the train oarying the dynamite aud
the running of the rear into the fore
part with suflioient force to geuerate
■parks.
