Fairview twp., paying $12,000 for it or

projected Penn'a R. R. and is underlaid
with coal.
—President Ketler of the Grove City
College iu writing to a friend in Butler
speaks very enthusiastically of the
progress of his college and says "just on
Saturday I got a gift of $35,000 for en
dowment and |40,000 for building.
—Eighty-two gallons of whisky is
s»id to have been the amount delivered
to parties near the Car Works, last Sun
day morning a week, and the distillery
aa;ent who did it is under bail to an

| Seventy-five Italians, all men, are
living in one house on the Wm. Grabe
farm in Jefferson twp., and they all are
working on the new pipe line from Oil
City to Pittsburg. A case of smallpox
in that house would spread like rabies.
—The Slippery rock Normal will ask
the legislature for (£50,000, at this ses
sion, for a new building for a museum
and a gymnasium. There is no more
creditable institution in the State than
this school, and we hope the Legislature
will be liberal with it.
—The Union Veteran Legion enter
tained 200 friends, Monday evening
Tney were ably assisted by the choir or
the U. P. church Maj Phipps read an
interesting paper on the battle of Get
tysburg. Next Monday the Vets, will
decide what kind of a monument they
will erect to Gen. Lee on Seminary
Ridge.
—lf teachers are poorly paid in this
State it is not the fault of the State,
which provides generously for the
•ehook. But it is quite proper in mak
ing the appropriation of eleven millions
biennially to insist that a decent rnini
m um be fixed below which salaries shall
pot fall. In many districts there is no
local taxation whatever for schools, and
tome of the balance from the State goes
to paying for the road mending. The
conmnnity that will not do its share
toward education deserves no State
bounty whatever. -Ex.
—Last week, as Rev. A. H. Ginder of
the Chicora and Fairview Reformed
churches, was driving from Buena Vis
ta to Chicora, four Italian laborers on
the now A. & W. railroad attempted to
hold him up and made a rush at him—
tome of them having knives. Rev.
Ginder is small in size bnt is an athlete
and is an ex-foot ball player. He was
pot daunted. Stopping his horse as the
men eaiue at him, he laid them out, one
*fter the other, with four well directed
blows with the butt of his whip, and
bad driven beyond their reach before
they regained their feet.
—A warning as to the result of neg
lecting sanitary precautions, and es
pecially of concealing the presence of
contagion, is given by the reports from
Mazatlan. Despite vigorous attempts
by the Mexican National Government
to check the bubonic pleague it is raging
at that Pacific port and has spread
throughout the state of 3inaloa. Proper
ty worth $2,000,000 has been burned to
stop the spread of the disease, the popu
lation exposed to infection has been iso
lated in detention camps, but neverthe
less the daily death roll is alarming,and
it cannot yet be affirmed that the epi
demic has been checked.
—The sale of a farm in Fairview twp.
at about $85.70 per acre, last week, is
the best price we have yet heard of, but
• friend informs us that some four
thonsand acres up about Slipperyrock
have been optioned at SIOO an acre, in
fee. These new railroads will bring all
the coal and limestone in the county
Jnto market, and our land owners
should hold out for a reasonable price.
Coal is said to run about 25,000 tons per
foot per acre. The surface vein aver
ages about four feet in this county, or
100,000 tons to the acre, and at S2O
per acre this gives the land owner about
ono-fiftieth of a cent per ton for
his coal, which is entirely too little for
his surface vein, to say nothing of the
lower strata. The good coal in this
county is worth from SSO to SIOO an

—The decision of the Supreme Court
of the United States affecting divorces,
will have far-reaching effect. In sus
taining the opinion of the Supreme
Court of Massachusetts invalidating a
decree obtained by a citizen of that
State in South Dakota the Federal
bench held that the six months' resi
deuce required by the laws of Dakota
[ ! did not constitute a legal transfer of
citizenship, being made for the express
purpose of securing a divorce. Conse
quently Massachusetts retained juris
diction and the denree was void in that
(Jtate. Other States have refused to
recognize Dakota divorces, but this i*
believed to be the first expression of
opinion from the court of last resort.
In effect it nullifies all divorces similar
ly obtained and will do much to dis
courage the Sioux Falls indurtry. As
the usual reason for a trip to Dakota is
to enable the petiticner to piarry some
one else the decision of the Supreme
Court that such marriages are {.'legal
removes the chief object.

Senator Wellington wants the wealth
of any individual limited to $10,000,000.
That seems unnecessary. We have
scanned the lists of millionaire tax-pay
ers in New York and there are only a
few who claim to own anything like a
million, while Carnegie is assessed at
only five, and Mr. Morgan has nothing
above his debts, so he says. It seems

Henry W. Bnrtner, a mtmber of tho
company of marines on board the L T . S.
battleship Masssachusetts, sent his folks
here the following account of the late
accident on board that vessel.
SAN J CAN, P. R., Jan. 18, 1908 □
"I will try and send you a few lines
on the sad accident on the Massachusetts
last Friday. We were at target practice
and while the crew of the 8-inch guns
were firing •» charge of 100 lbs. of pow
der, it exploded and burned ten men so
badly that they are all dead but one,
and he is almost dead.
As soon as the accident happened the
Admiral gave orders for us to go to San
Juan as quicklj as we could, and sent
four doctors on l>oard to help our own.
And we made a flying trip to San Juan,
a distance of 50 miles.
But, when we had arrived, five of the
poor fellows had died and the carpen
ter's gang had started to make the cof
fins and the dead were prepared for bur
ial, and those who were yet living seut
to the hospital. Next morning the dead
were buried with naval honors.
As we were coming back from the
graveyard a signal came that two more
of them had died.
And now we have just got word that
one more of them has died and is to be
buried to-morrow. Just to think what
they have been suffering. It is too hor
rible to relate; some of them were burn
ed so bad you could not tell who they
were.
We had just finished firing the sis
inch gun and were standing about
watching them fire the 8-inch sun. One
of the gun's crewe had just finished firing
and had come out of the turret, leaving
only one crew inside, (ten men). Thev
had fired all but two shots and had on<*
in, but when they went to fire it the gun
held fire, and when they opened the
breech the gun went off, filling the
tnrret with Humes and setting fire to
bags of powder that had just came tip
from the magazine and the men could
not get out quick enough. We manned
the hose and turned the tnrret as soon as
we could, and flooded the magazine in
time to save the ship.
I shall never forget those poor fellows
some with the flesh falling off them,
begging for someone to kill them. They
were taken to the bay, and wrapped in
clothes soaked linseed oil.
One fellow, before anyone could catch
him, jumped overboard, but he died a
few hours afterwards.
You will get the papers giving full
accounts of it, as there have been sev
eral reporters on board.

The New Railroad.
The directors of the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company and i f the Pennsyl
vania Company at their meetings held
in Philadelphia last Thursday, had be
fore them the plan for the low-gratis
freight cut-off to run from Enon, on the
Fort Wayne road, to Red Bank ou the
Allegheny Valley railroad. The officials
approved the plans and ordered that
the contracts be let at once.
The road will be double tracked, with
enormous freight yards at both ends,
and.will cost at least $0,000,000. It was
said at the meetings that tracks of the
Allegheny Valley, Philadelphia & Erie
and Northern Central roads were in
good shape to handle the new traffic
which the low grade route will give
them, but that big transfer yards must
be built at Sunburv. where the Philadel
phia & Erie road will liai.d over the
freight to the Northern Central. The
yards will cost about $50,000, and it is
semi-officially announced that the
Northern will soon let contracts for their
construction
The cut-off from Enon to Red Bank
will enable the Pennsylvania to send all
through freight to and from the west
around Pittsburg and relieve the con
gestion at that city, and when it is built
and and the freight road through Lan
caster and Chester counties is completed
the Pennsylvania will have a low grade
freight road stretching from the Alle
gheny river to the Delaware The route
from Red Bank is by way of the low
grade division of the Allegheny Valley
road to Driftwood, thence by the Phila
delphia & Erie to Sunburv, and thence
by the Northern Central to Maysyille,
north of Ilarrisburg, and down along
the Susquehanna to Shocks Mills. The
route of the low-grade road is thence
down the fast bank of the Susquehanna
on the bed of the Columbia & Deiwsit
road to York Haven, and thence across
Lancaster and Chester counties to At
glen. From Atglen the main line will
be used to Glen Loch, where connection
is made with the Trenton cut off, which
takes the low-grade freight route to the
Delaware. The road is expected to be
opened from the Allegheny to the Dela
ware within 18 months.
