Sold Rags to a Junk Dealer and
Among Them Was $87.37
Through the efforts of Guy Hol-
lon, Towanda's well known com
stable, Mrs. Byron Bennett of
Overton, recovered a sum of mona-
ey yesterday which had parted
from her possession in a most un-
usual manner, The other day a
junk dealer went to Mrs. Bennett's
home at Overton and bought a
quantity of rags. After the deal
was made the dealer took the rags
to New Albany for shipment. Af-
ter he had departed Mrs, Bennett
discovered that $87.37, which she
bad in the house was missing
Then she began to do some think
ing. She knew that the money
was in the house before the junk
dealer came, and also that it was
not there after ‘he had departed.
She did not acuse him of stealing
the money, but she conncted its
disappearance with the rags which
she had sold. So strong was her
belief that the money had in some
manner got mixed up with the
rags she decided to tell her trou
bles to Mr. Hollon. Accordingly
she went to Towanda and made
him acquainted with the circum-
stances. After hearing her story
Mr. Hollon decided that the money
was among the rags, and he im
mediately set out to intercept the
car in which they had been ship-
ped.
He learned that the car went
north over the Lehigh and that it
would pass through the Sayre
yards, Accordingly yesterday af
terday afternoon he came to Sayre
oa train No. 1, and immediately
went to Superintendent Kinney,
from whom he secured an order to
have the car stopped here, Early
last evening the car arrived in
Sayre. Mr, Hollon showed his
order to John R Drugan, the yard
master, and the two proceeded to
make an investigation of its con
teats, The car contained a con-
siderable quantity of junk, and at
first it looked like a hopeless task.
After carefully searching for some
time they came upon an old file,
around which was wrapped an old
newspaper. The paper was re-
moved and underneath was the
missing money, The bills had been
placed over them to conceal their
presence.
Mr. Hollon took possession of
the money and will return it to
Mrs. Bennett today. The finding
of the money was without doubt
due to the prompt action of Mr.
Hollon, and Mrs. Bennett is de-
serving of praise for being sensible
enough to place the matter in the
hands of a man skilled in work of
this character.
FISH WARDEN NOTIFIED
Attorney Paul E. Maynard and
G. S. Parker went to Smithboro
this morning at 3 o'clock. They
launched a boat in the Susquehanna
at that place and will float down
the stream until they reach Sayre.
When they lef Sayre both men
were laden with fishing tackle, from
which it is inferred that they have
mercinary designs on the finny
tribe, which abounds in the placid
waters of the Susquehanna, It is
said that a dray will meet the boat
when it lands at Sayre this cvening.
In the meantime the fish warden
has been notified.
YESTERDAY'S STORM
The hail storm which struck
Sayre yesterday afternoon did not
do as much damage as was at first
feared. The storm was not general
in its character, and therefore but
little territory was affected. There
was no hail at Atheas and but little
at Waverly, The storm, however,
is said to have passed down the
Chemung valley and did consider-
able damage to late tobacco,

Rail Feil on Left Leg and Ampu-
tation May Be Necessary
Fred Dutton, a Lehigh Valley
section hand, who resides at Van
Etten, met with a serious injury
near that place this morning which
may cost him his left leg. Shortly
after the men went to work this
morning it was found necessary to
cut a nail in two, In order to per
form this operation the rail is first
cut with a chisel at the desired
point. Then several men at each
end lift the rail in the air and then
it is allowed to fall on another rail.
Dutton was assisting in the work
and when the rail fell it struck his
left leg below the knee, mutilating
the member in a frightful manner
and breaking the bones to splinters,
He was sent to this place on a
switch engine and upon. arriving
here at once removed to the hos
pital. The physicians at the hospital
will try and save the injured leg,
but the chances are rather doubtful.

NEEDLESS ANETY
Editor Valley Recond :
It seems a pity not to allay the
needless anxiety occasioned by the
presence of the “Leper car” in
with this truly loathsome disease,
happily endemic in our day, we
ourselves, and a greater pity for
the poor unfortunate who caused
this widespread alarm. Nor are
the researches of modern science
necessary to acquaint us with its
nature. The Mosaic law concern-
ing it was given ‘‘ to teach when it
is unclean and when it is ‘clean:
this is the law of leprosy.” Lev.
xiv: §7. It is noteworthy that the
law was given centuries before the
germ theory was formulated, or
fumigation as preventative of con-
tagion was even dreamed of, and
yet so perfect was the law that it
provided against any possible in-
fection as ¥ffectually as scientific
methods today.
Most of the medieval superstis
tions concerning it, relics of the
days when it raged as an epidemic
through Europe, have passed
away, Itis no longer considered
contagious by the experts who
have made this subject their spe-
cialty. Itiseven now declared to
be a curable disease. True, it is
an infectious one, but the infection
can only be communicated when it
is in what is known as the “period-
ically eruptive stage” in advanced
cases or according to the law, Lev.
xiii: 14, “When raw flesh appear-
eth in him, he sha!! be unclean.”
Even in this stage, unless the in-
fection is received into a cut or
sore of a persor whose * general
health is at the time impaired, one
need have no fear. Any skepti-
cism on this point is convincingly
silenced by the reports of the
Leper Colony on the St. Lawrence,
where none of the nurses caring
lor the worst cases have ever con-
tracted the disease, owing to the
simple precaution of wearing rub-
ber gloves when handling a patient,
and the proper sterilization or
fumigation of all articles contam
inated by the sores.
None of the physicians quoted
by the press who examined this
particular leper, pronounced it an
unclean case, notwithstanding the
terrified rumors to the contrary,
but better were ten thousand pre-
cautions, than the risk of a single
case of any preventable disease, be
it leprosy, smallpox, diphtheria or
typhoid, Certainly the notorius
car should be fumigated, if only to
show the railroad's interest in the
public's welfare. Common cents
will purchase what little sulphur is
needed, and a few coals of fire will
complete the good work. Let
some of the fearful pass the hat,
nor forget that silence is also
golden,

by Mitchell's All Star Players will
be presented tonight at Oak Grove

James Clohessy, chief of the fire
department at Waverly, stated this
morning that he would bring fiv®
companies to Sayre on the day of
the firemen's parade, The Boy's
band will accompany them, and it
is probable that the Nichols band
will also be engaged.
