Ageats in the employ of the coal operators are urging retail dealers to buy coal at the present time, claiming that the possibility of a strike is likely to make it extreme- ly difficult to buy the commodity later. The dealers, however, are not loading up heavily. They believe that it is not so much fzar of a strike on the part of the operators as it is the desire of the latter to dispose of all the coal they can before the time comes for coal to take the annual spring drop. At the present time it is smd that one coal owning railroad in the east has over 5,000,000 tons of coal on top of the ground, stored at vari- ous points along the line, and that if a strike were to occur they can sell this coal at an advance large enough to clear over $2,000,000 on the deal. A local dealer said this morning that the operators would rather have a strike than not. They have plenty of coal mined which they can sell, in the event of a strike, atan advanced rate and if there should be a settlement of the trouble between miners and operators the latter would feel badly indeed. BUSY EXPLAINING This morning a stone flew through one of the windows in Ike Samuels’ Lockhart street jewelry store, and although the break is a slight one, it has kept the genial Ike busy all day explaining how the accident happened. The Italian workmen engaged in digging a trench for the telephone company's conduit this morning began ex- cavating in front of Ike's store, The Work had not been in progress long when a stone flew from the trench, struck the pane of glass, and broke a hole through the same. Then the fun began. Ike's friends, and he has many of them, called to extend their sympathies, and ascer- tain the cause. Up to 3 o'clock this afternoon he has told the story of the accident exactly 49 times, and the chances are before the day is over that his vocal organs will be in a state of collapse. : SHOULD BE CONGRATULATED Ervin Scott Armstrong, a well known Lock Haven young man, is bucking the tiger at Monte Carlo, Armstrong comes from a well known Lock Haven family, is 22 years ol age and is said to be a dandy at cards and games of chance. He also owns an auto- mobile which he runs in a dare- devil manner through Lock Ha- ven's beautiful streets. Lock Ha. ven is to be congratulated upon having a citizen of $50 much diss tinction. REMAINS TAKEN TO OWEEO The body of the late Julius H. Smith, the Lehigh Valley lagman who died at his home in this place on Friday morning, was taken to Owego yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock. The Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen had charge of the remains which were placed in the receiving vault of the Ever- green cemetery at Owego. Pres vious to leaving for Owego funer- al services were conducted at the late home of the deceased, Rev. E. C. Petrie, pastor of the Presby« terian church, officiating. TWELVE INCHES OF SHOW Twelve inches of snow fell at North Fair Haven on Saturday tand the prospects for more are favorable. Railroad men on the Auburn division of the Lehigh say that 22 inches of snow in all have fallen on that division within the past week. The road is open, how- and no trouble will be experi- Piece of Human Flesh and the Remnants of a Pair of Over- alls Found on Number Five's Engine . This morning when the engine which drew Lehigh Valley passen- ger No. 5 to Sayre entered the round house the employes made a rather gruesome discovery, which leads them to belicve that some- where down the line the engine had struck and killed a man. In the gearing of the engine was found a part of a man's overalls and also a small piece of human flesh. There was no blood or other evidence usually found when an engine strikes a human being, and as no one has been reported killed on the Pennsylvania division the railroad officials are unable to account for the presence of the overalls and flesh. It is possible that the engine may have struck a man on one of the lower divisions without the knowledge of the en- gineer. The finding of the rem- nants mentioned has been reported to the proper officials and it is quite probable that an investigation will follow. Late this afternoon it was learns ed that an unknown man was liter- ally ground to pieces at a place named Freeman, the second station this side of Easton. The remains ofa man were found scattered along the track and they were so badly mutiliated that recognition was absolutely impossible. Itis believed that he was struck by the engine on train No 35 and that the piece of flesh found was a part of his body. LEAIGH GETTING READY FOR BUSINESS Italians Are Laying a Switch at Bast Towanda for the Accom- modation of Contractors It is stated in today's Towanda Review that there will be some- thing doing very shortly in the way of Lehigh Valley improve- ment at that place, and as an evi- dence of the fact, further says that a gang of jo Italians were set to work Saturday in the cut just cast of the East Towanda crossing, preparing to lay a siding. The siding is being built, it is alleged, to accommodate the steam shovels, work trains and cars of the con- tractors who are expected soon to begin work on the improvements. The bids for the new bridge which the Lehigh is to erect at that place were closed on Saturday, and it is probable that the cons tract will be let in a few days. The local Lehigh officials are non- commital regarding this part of the work, but it is believed that the preliminary preparations for the construction of the new bridge are under way, and that the structure will be erected this summer. CHARGED WITH ASSAULT Joe Palumbo, an Italian,” caused the arrest of John Zimmerman this afternoon on a charge of assault and battery. Palumbo alleges that on Thursday last when he was leaving the Lehigh Valley shops Zimmerman hurled a stone which struck Palumbo in the forchead, inflicting a grievous injury. As proof of his assertion Palumbo is wearing a wad of cotton about the size of a goose egg over a lacerated wound located directly between the eyes. Zimmerman was arrested by Constable Brougham and when brought into court pleaded not | guilty. He will have a hearing to-| was discharged from the hospital this forenoon. 8 Committee in Charge of Town Hall Project Held Important Meeting Saturday Night The town hall committee of the borough council held a meeting on Saturday night for the purpose of discussing plans for a new building. As has heretofore been stated in received in all five sets of plans from as many architects, features, but aay ome of them is borough. Therefore it has been of the several sets of plans, bunch them into one, and submit the same at the next regular meeting of the borough council, which will occur on next Monday evening. The town hall committee have pushed matters far enough so that so far as plans for a building are concerned, they will be able to report at most any time a compres hensive and desirable set of plans, but as the project is quite likely to be combined with the sewer ques- tion it is probable that nothing definite can be accomplished until the latter proposition is in tangible shape. At Monday evening's meeting of the council, however, there is every reason to believe that both projects will receive con- siderable attention and be given an impetus that will result in some- thing of a decisive nature being done before the warm weather ar- nives. ——————— ———— HAD BEEN TO WAVERLY A man who gave his name as W. J. Smith (probably fictitious) was staggering about the streets of Sayre Saturday evening in an intox icated condition. Officer Vogel took him to the lockup for the night and yesterday morning he told Justice Gay that he had been to Waverly to see the show and that after the performance he proceeded to sample the several kinds of exhilerating beverages sold at the various dispensaries in that town, with the result that when he reached Sayre he was slightly intoxicated. He was fined one dollar and costs and advised that the next time he got drunk in Waverly to remain there until sober. ; ————— A ————————— A STRENUOUS ALDERMAN E. D. Donahue, Wilkes-Barre's strenuous alderman, was a visitor in Sayre yesterday. Alderman Donahue has a reputation for deal- ing out stern justice in an original manner. Obstreperous offenders against law and order are made to feel the force of his strong right arm, when they get gay with the court. Mr. Donahue showed his right hand while here yesterday and it is broken and bruised from coming in contact with culprits who failed to show proper respect for the court. JE-NAKING WEATBER The weather which prevailed on Saturday night and yesterday morning was the coldest of the scason. In fact it was regular ice making weather, and “in many places hereabouts the thermometer registered four or more degrees below zero. The weather bureau, however, has predicted warmer conditions for the next few days, during which time it is quite likely the snow which now covers the ground will entirely disappear, NOTICE Want ads inserted by persons not having a ledger account with The Record must be paid for when We positively cannot charge want ads indiscrim- inately—the expense of bookkeep- ing and collecting is entirely out of proportion to the amount involy- BS A Large and Complete Assortment of Iron Beds, Springs, Mattresses | Ca \ CRY NV For Spring House Cleaning i" GALDWELL'S FURNITURE STORE &@ PICTURE FRAMING ASL ISL i) 205 Desmond St, Valley Phone 191 a.
