S. Fish, where the lad had gone to have his toasils removed. Death was due to heart collapse and oc- curred immediately after the tonsils had been taken out by the sur- geon's knife. A condition of the blood known to the medical fra- ternity as hemophelia, but com monly termed “bleeder,” is given as the cause of the lad's sudden collapse. For some time the boy has been suffering from enlarged ton- sils and yesterday afternoon was the time designated for him to go to the doctor's office and have them removed. The operation itsell is considered a most trivial one by surgeons, and is accepted as such by the laity. Previous to his departure for the doctor's office, the lad and his father, who is the well known Lchigh Valley conductor, had been playing checkers at their Lockhart street home, and when the boy left a game which they had just started was to be completed upon his return. Upon the boy's arrival at the office Doctor Fish, assisted by Miss Emily McCreight, directoress of nurses at the Packer hospital, at once proceeded with the opera- tion. Miss McCreight administered the chloroform at about 3:25 o'clock, and five minutes later the tonsils were removed. At the conclusion of the operation the boy collapsed, and his heart ceased to beat. Doctor Fish at once telephoned to the hospital, and a few minutes later Doctor Ott, accompanied by another nurse, arrived and the doctor's and nurses immediately went to work to resus- citate the boy. Artificial respiration and every means known to medical science were resorted to, but after an hour of heroic work on the part of the physicians and nurses they were forced to admit that further effort would be useless, the lad in all probability having died almost instantly. Once or twice the means resorted to by the phy- sicians produced breathing in the lad’s body, but it was only of a tempdrary nature, A subsequent examination devel. oped the fact that the boy's blood lacked the necessary constituents to form coagulation, and as stated above is known to medical science as hemophclia. Previous to pers forming the operation Dr. Fish ex- amined the boy's heart with a stethoscope and the organ was found to be in a normal condition, its sudden collapse being an entire- ly unlooked for occurrence, The body was later removed to the home of Mr. and Mrs, Bentley, who were nearly distracted with grief. Benjamin was their only child and his sudden death has been indeed a hard blow to his parents. The funeral will be held tomor- row at 12 o'clock from the house, and 12:30 at the Lutheran church, Rev. E. M. Beysher, pastor of the Lutheran church, officiating. The remains will be taken to Towanda for interment on a special car at- tached to the milk train. The deceased lad was a student in the Sayre high school and was particularly bright and well liked by his schoolmates and for that matter by all with whom he had acquaintance. but we guarantee vality and price.

The Sayre Aeric_of Eagles are making preparations for a fine time at the special meeting to be held on Thursday evening next. There are 25 candidates to be initiated into the mysteries “of the order, and after the work has been fin ished an entertainment and smoker will follow. As is well known the Eagles have among their members several first-class vaudeville artists and they will provide a program on Thursday evening which every member of the Aerie should see. Refreshments will be served and a general good time is assured. In connection with other import- ant arrangements the Sayre Aerie of Eagles are also preparing to at- tend the installation of an Aerie which is to occur at Towanda on Wednesday evening, April 4th. The degree team of the local Aerie will do the instailation work at Towanda, and a fine banquet will probably follow. In fact it is inti mated that the Towanda Eagles will outdo themselves in providing entertainment for their Sayre breth- ren. The Sayre contingent will leave this place on Lehigh train No. 122 and those who have the matter in charge are trying to arrange for a special car to be run from the upper station at Towanda to the Washington street depot. THE POWER OF MUSIC “Music soothes the savage breast,” according to the poet, and it also stills the crying child, fires the soldicr to martial vigor, and in- spires men and maiden to sweet thoughts of love-and kindred joys. However, a new demonstration of the power of music was given in St. Petersburg, when Sousa and his American band played there not long ago. The morning after the concert a uniformed lackey left a small pack- age at Sousa’s hotel, and when the bandmaster undid the fastenings, he found a pair of long, white, ladie’s gloves, and a note addressed to himself, written on crested and perfumed note paper. It read as follows, in English : “Dear Mr. Sousa: 1 had the pleasure of being at your concert last evening and derived great en- joyment from your beautiful music and your playing of it—too much enjoyment by far, I fear, as the ac companying enclosure will testify. I wore the gloves last evening, and feel sure that every lady went home in the same state. However, | feel that my sacrifice was but a very small one, in the cause of true art Ruefully, and yet gratefully yours, OlgaW, ,. ,..* Sousa drew forth the gloves, and found that they were split into shreds. He vowed that his native gallantry would have torced him to send the enthusiastic lady a new pair of the finest gloves, had she not with truc Russian delicacy, ommitted to put her address in the letter. The fair Sousa auditors of the future should note the moral of this narrative and take the popular band master at his word.

NOT EVEN A RIPPLE The Hon. Mial E. Lilley, Con- gressman from. this district, and erstwhile political boss and dictator of the Republican cohorts in this county, was a Sayre visitor last night. When the Hon. Mial has visited this town on former occa- sions willing heachmen have con- gregated in large numbers at the depot platform to await his coming, and when he stepped from the pas- senger coach would greet him with cordial handshakes and smiles, but what a noticeable diffetence there was on the occasion of his visit last night! There was not a single for mer licutenant in sight, and the Hon. Gentleman saw not a single hand to clasp in his own. In fact his coming to Sayre didn't create even a ripple, and those who had formerly worshipped at his shrine were conspicuous by their absence, Throughout the evening Mial made several ineffectual efforts to get into communication with most any one that had a vestige of political influence left, but up to a late hour last night the only ones who had paid any attention to him whatever were a Democrat and an obsolete “Mugwump” Verily Mial's polit ical fences which have been going to decay with amazing rapidity within the past three months will in all probability never be rebuilt. The following that he once had is engaged in other business. WP —— Imperial All-Star Minstrels at the Loomis this evening.
