There was an entire absence of

do not approve of games of chance,
got busy, with the result that the

Wanted Pay for Time They
Failed to Work—--Became De-

A number of Italians employed
by the National Car Wheel Com-
pany created a disturbance on Sat.
urday afternoon and it was neces.
sary to sead for the police to quict
them It appears that the mean
have been working over time on
some days, and then on certain
days they would not work full
time. The company, however,
thought that matters were about
even up and gave the men full time,
letting the overtime ofiset the
short days. The Italians didn't
like this arran- ement ; they wanted
pay for overtime and also full pay
for short days. The company
could hardly see the justice of this
demand and the bookkeeper was
instructed to keep accurate account
of the time put in by the men and
pay them for work acrually pers
formed. When the Italians learned
this they raised a rumpus Several
of them exhibited stilletos and
threatened the timekeeper, whom
they blamed for their pay being
short. Officer Sisson of the Mills
town district was called, and when
he appeared the dangerous looking
knives disappeared and the men
slunk away. Another outbreak is
expected at any time.

SHORT CHANGED
Italian Causes Arrest of Man
Who Sold Tickets for the
Ferris Wheel
An Italian who claimed that he
had been short changed by the
Ferris wheel ticket seller caused
the latter's arrest on Saturday
night shortly after 12 o'clock. The
Italian claimed that he bought two
tickets for a ride on the wheel and
laid down a dollar in payment
therefor. When he received his
change, however, he alleges that
he was given change for only so
cents. The ticket seller claimed
that the Italian gave him a fifty-
cent picce in the first instance.
Men in the crowd, however, said
that the Italian laid down a paper
dollar. But when the Italian was
questioned he said it was a silver
dollar. Chief Walsh was called
and adjusted matters for the time
being, but later the Italian went
before Justice Nelson and caused
a warrant to be issued for the
ticket seller's arrest: Officer Vogel
placed the man under arrest and
after some discussion of the matter
the 50 cents which the Italian
claimed he was out was returned to
him, the costs paid and the ticket
seller was released.

young women, a graduate of the
Sayre high school, but who has
been employed as a clerk in the
big department store since it was

Fate at Towanda Yesterday
weeks has been employed by a
farmer at
death ia a most horrible man-
ner at Towanda yesterday af-
ternoon when he was
by the engine drawing the west-
bound Black Diamond. Every
of one trouser leg was stripped
from his body.
both legs were cut off, and the
trunk was ground into pieces.
There are several versions as to
the manner in which Peters was
killed. The most probable one is
to the effect that he and a com-
panion had been near the milk sta-
tion at North Towanda conversing
with several others who had gath-
cred there. Peters and his friend,
who was a young lad, started for
the river to go in swimming. They
crossed the tracks when one of the
crowd called to them to come back.
Peters’ friend came back and Peters
followed. At that momeat the
Black Diamond, which does not
stop at Towanda, came rushing
around the curve. Peters attempt-
ed to get across the tracks ahead
of thetrain. As he made the ef
fort he fell and the engine passed
over his body grinding it into an
unrecognizable mass. The re-
mains were gathered into a box
and taken to Murphy & Campbell's
undertaking rooms. Justice of the
Peace Meredith empaneled a jury,
which viewed the remains and or
dered them buried at once.
The jury will meet again to-
morrow afternoon to make further
inquiries into the accident. This
morning the mother of the dead
man, who lives at Waverly, was
notified, and she went to Towanda.
