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

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. On Saturday they put the]
All Ithaca bunch out of business, |
notwithstanding that the latter team |
is a strong one. The Elmira
aggregation has a fine record and
will come here Saturday prepared
to wipe the local contingent off the
face of the earth. The game will
be called at 3:30 o'clock.
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.

Mary Shaylor, a dissolute char-

eight-months-old babe, were burned
to death in a fire which consumed
the home of William Ackley in
Towanda township at an carly hour
yesterday morning. The Shaylor
woman was almost completely in-

after having been removed from the

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~

‘that they heard a noise in the

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

house and saw a child sleeping on

TELLS FAKE STORY
Fails to Ring Time Recording
Clock and in Order to Square
Himself Claims to Have Been
Knocked Down by Robbers
This morning a story was circu-
lated to the cffect that last night a
night watchman employed in a
certain - Sayre establishment had
been knocked down, rendering him
unconscious, and while thus in a
helpless condition the perpetrators
of the deed had thoroughly ran
secked the place over which the
watchman had charge and had se-
cured considerable booty. 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
