Harry Moore, who was killed in the foot ball game between Union College and the University of New rk on Saturday WR SINAN And While Be Was So Think- ing, Woman's Condition Be- comes Serious. Because her husband belicved that she was shamming, a certain Sayre woman hovered between life and death for nearly five hours on Saturday night, suffering from the effects of a quantity of laudanum which she had evidently taken with suicidal intent. The husband it appears is in the habit of going out nights. He isa good fellow and nothing worse than to visit certain places where the dice are shaken for the cigars. His wife, however, object- ed to his absence from home, and when he left his house on Saturday night she followed him. He went to a certain hotel and was soon en- gaged in rolling the ivories for the drinks. While thus employed his wife sent a messenger into the ho- tel for her left the game and went to the door. does her lips and drank the contents, at the same time declaring that she had taken laudanum. The hus- band refused to believe it, and 1n~ stead of getting frightened pro- ceeded to laugh at her. They went home together, and as the woman showed indications of being dopy her husband helped the mat- ter along by dancing her up and down the room, still thinking that she was feigning. For an hour or more he continued to walk her about but finally the husband be- came alarmed. It soon became a difficult matter to keep her on her feet and she showed every evi- dence of having taken some pow- erful drug. Thoroughly alarmed the husband sent for a physician and when the latter arrived he gave the woman an emetic. The contents of the stomach were ex- pelled, but there was no smell of laudanum. The woman, however, continued to grow worse and for four hours she was in a critical condition, the drug having become thoroughiy absorbed in her system. After heroic work on the part of the doctor she was revived, and to- day is pronounced out of danger. ALL ELMIRA V5. Athens Driving Park Arrangements have been coms pleted for another red hot foot ball game at the Athens driving park on Thanksgiving afternoon. The Sayre-Athens combination and All Elmira will be the contesting teams | and lovers of sport are assured of a | first class game. The local aggre- gation is showing up with the goods.

INSTALLING NEW ORGAN The new Esty organ, which was recently purchased for the Metho- dist church at this place, has ar- rived and is being installed in the church today. The instrument cost in the neighborhood of g1600 and is a handsome affair. It will be a valuable acquisition to the church property and greatly appre- ciated by the members of the choir.

The Shaylor woman was almost completely in- cinerated, while the child was sQ badly burned that it died five hours after having been removed from the burning building. Ackley’'s home was situated just outside of the borough of Towanda and for some time has been a resort For some time the nights have been for disreputable characters. gies of those there. Saturday might a party consists ling of Mr. and Mrs. William Ack: ley, their son Will, aged 24 years, their daughter, Mrs. Charlie What. miller, their granddaughters, Flor- ence Johnson and Louise Whit- miller, both young girls of 6 or 7 years, their grandson, Henry Whitmiller, Jerry Decker, aged {about 45, a relative of the Ackleys, Delbert Vanderpool, George Van- derpool, Joseph Vanderpool, Pency Johnson, Levi Parker, a miner at Barclay, and Mary Shaylor, gath- ered at the Ackley home. In the carly part of the evening Will Ack- ley, the son, and Mary Shaylor secured a half dollar and left the house. Nothing more was seen of them until after the fire. The remainder of the party drank algo~ hol and danced. Neighbors say ‘that they heard a noise in the | house until 2 o'clock, but after that it was quict. About 4 o'clock a man residing in the vicinity of the Ackley home saw flames issuing from the windows of the bedroom down stairs. He rushed into the house and saw a child sleeping on {a couch and surrounded by fire. | He grabbed the child and took it to a place of safety.

Diligent inquiry elicited the fact that while there was some foundation for the rumor, that it was simply a story originated by the nightwatchman who had fallen asleep at his post and had failed to ring up a time recording clock. He said that during the night he was knocked down by masked men and that shortly after the men left him he became unconscious. This morn- ing a man employed at the estab- lishment examined the night watchman but there were no marks to indicate that he had been rough- ly handled. His story 1s believed to have been a fake as nothing in the building had been disturbed A NEW DEPARTURE The Lehigh Valley Company announces that on and after December 1 a demurrage charge of one dollar per day will be made upon each car of coal for water shipments remaining unload ed 72 hours after its arnval at Perth Amboy. It is further stated that owing to contemplated changes in storage facilities at Perth Amboy no specific allotment of space will hereafter be made to any shipper, and a charge of ten cents per month will be made for storing coal when storage space is avail able. This is a radical departure from the established policy and will seriously affect most of the ship- pers using the Perth Amboy docks. The Lehigh Valley has bins for storing 200,000 tons of coal and has heretofore permitted shippers to store coal in the bins for an in- definite period without charge .

The Ithaca boys are not quite satisfied with the result and are trying to arrange for a return game to be played at Ithaca next Saturday. —— A eran FORMER RESIDENT DEAD Phocbe Munn, relict of Alanson Munn, died at the home her son Kizer Munn in Lestershire, N.
