Sidney Loomis, & Shop Employes,
Met a Horrible Death This
Morning :
Sidaey Loomis, of Athens, em
ployed as a carpenter in the new
Lehigh Valley shops, was instantly
killed this morning between 7 and
8 o'clock, the upper part of his
head being, literally crushed to a
pulp,
Loomis, who was about fifty
years old, was engaged at a work
bench along side of which stood
an engine. The tank to the engine
had been removed from its trucks
to undergo repairs. This morning
one of the big 120 ton cranes was
employed to lift the tank to the
trucks. In order to do so it was
necessary to lit the tank about
twenty feet in the air, move it over
the top of the engine and then
lower it to its position on the
trucks. To accomplish this work
a large chain is hitched to one end
of the tank, and at the other end
the chain is fastened to a bale
Everything went along all right
until the tank reached a point di-
rectly over the engine. Then the
end of the chain fastened to the
bale end of the tahk gave way,
allowing it to fall. The tank fell
directly across the bench at which
Loomis was engaged at work. His
head was caught underneath and
crushed to a jelly. Death was in-
stantaneous. :
William Miner and Leo Van
duzer, who were also working
alongside of the engine, were
caught underneath the tank but
they escaped with slight injuries.
The fact that they were not instant.
ly killed is regarded as miraculous.
The ambulance was called and the
two injured men were taken to the
hospital,
Justice Nelson decided that in
the case of Loomis no inquest was
necessary, and the remains were re-
poved to Grumme's undertaking
establishment and later taken to
Athens. ,
The unfortunate man resided on
Hugh street in Athens and had
been employed by the Lehigh as a
carpenter for some time. He
leaves a wife and four children,
DAMAGE CLAIM SETTLED
The heirs of James Morris, the
aged Wilawanna man who met
death on the night of June 6, by
falling through the trolley bridge
which crosses the D. LL. & W,
tracks at Waverly, will receive
$000 by the terms of a settlement
which has recently been effected.
It is claimed by the heirs that the
W. S. & A. Traction Company, the
D. L. & W. Railroad Cofnpany and
the borough of South Waverly
were all guilty contributory
negligence. Suit was threatened
by attorney for the heirs, but a
settlement was reached before it
was brought.
LARGE PLATE
GLASS BROKEN
A chair was inadvertently push-
ed against one of the large plate
glass windows in the front of the
Wilbur house last night, breaking
it in such a manner that it will
have to be replaced by a new one.
The glass is an expensive one,
costing in the neighborhood of
$00. Josh White, the porter, was
sweeping out the front office when
he moved one of the chairs. The
chair tipped over, stnking ' against
the window, cracking it from near
the top to the bottom. A new
glass will be ordered.

Whea witchcralt was being
abolished in Norway a religious
movement became evident and a
war upon those who claimed Ro-
map faith was commenced. Thel-

mar, being a firm believer, was
charged with being a witch and
was ostracized from all society,
An English geatleman, upon a
tour through Norway, saw Thelma
and became infatuated with her,
thus causing anger to all Norwe-
gians, who aroused Sequrd, a half-
witted boy, to destroy both Thelma
and her English lover. This is a
partial story of the play that will
be prese by Mitchell's All Star

FIREMEN'S PARADE
The preparations for the con-
vention and parade of the Valley
Firemen's association are nearly
completed. gentlemen having
charge of the event are satisfied
that the parade will be the largest
and best in the history of the as
sociation, There will be 20 fire
companies and ten bands in line
and the line of march will pass
over the principal streets of the
borough. From present indicas
tions there will be a big crowd In
Sayre on the day of the parade.
The business places and many pri-
vate dwellings will be decorated
handsomely, The visiting fire men
will be entertained royally. While
there will be no intoxicants in evi-
dence at the various hose rooms,
the local laddies will endeavor to
show their guests that a good time
can be enjoyed without recourse to
the liquid that Sheers,

A COMMENDABLE DEED
A case of the true kind of char~
ity—practical assistance rendered
came to the attention of The Rec
ord this morning, and it is worth
publicity. A man employed in
the shops met with an accident
some time ago which canfined him
to his bed. Yesterday a couple of
his shopmates went to see how he
was getting along, After they had
been in the house a short time
they discovered that the family
was in a destitute condition
through the inability of the head
of the hdusehold to supply his wife
and five children with the common
necessities of life. The shopmates
quietly organized themselves a
committee and interviewed some
business men and citizens. The
result was a liberal response, and
provisions of various kinds and a
generous supply of cash were soon
delivered atthe house of the un-
fortunate family,

the Biggest Fall Business in
the History of the Road
Company is gettihg ready for what
freight business in the history of
representative this morning. Mr.
the subject, says that for the most
are heavy. Hay is a particularly
large crop, potatoes will be pleati-
plentiful as last year, the yield is
larger than many suspect. In west-
ern New York, the apple belt of
this country, thousands of bushels
will be gathered. The greater part
of them will be shipp=d, and as the
Lehigh runs through that section
the road is bound to get its share
of the business.
Before the end of the month the
freight rush will be on, and the
capacity of theyroad will probably
be taxed to the utmost. This will
mean extra time for regular crews
in the service of the road, and will
also be the means of giving em-
ployment to many extra ones.
Orders are also being sent out
from the headquarters of other
railroads calling attention to the
heavy freight traffic that is expected
this winter and instructing division
cfficials that freight cars are not to
be delivered to foreign lines except
in cases where it is absolutely nec
essary, Eastern railroads have shut
down somewhat on sending car
loads of building material to San
Francisco and additional cars have
been sent to the Pacific coast, so
that freight cars sent to that section
some time ago can be jmmedialety
returned. Division officials have
careful inspection of rolling stock
and to see that all freight cars are
in condition to handle a capacity
MOVING PICTURES
Some things can be painted,
others illustrated by steels engrav
ings, a few can be described, but
noac of these means can impart
knowledge and impressions so
clearly—so fully—so accurately—
and so convincingly as Lyman H.
Howe's Lileorama that appears in
the Loomis Opera House on Satur-
day, Sept. 15, afternoon and even-
ing. History is made so rapidly in
this twentieth century, or we get
so much of it, big and little, that
tremendous events are soon merged
with others and lost to mind unless
saved to the sight by such moving
pictures as presented by Mr. Howe.
The most recent events, however
notable they may be, are speedily
relegated to the common level of
the dim distant past unless preserv-
ed by the enduring moving picture
film. Were it not for the moving
pictures that preserve history for
us so well, we would soon lose
sight of great events as we do of
stars of varying distance, however
brilliant they may be. But the tele~
scope brings the star within our
range of vision. And the moving
picture does us a similar service.
It again brings the recent historic
event back to us in all its reality,
But here the analogy ends. For
the telescope can annihilate only
distance. The moving picture ans
nihilates not only distance, but also
time. The battle, event or exploit
that took place 10,000 miles away
a year ago, the moving picture will
produce, here, there, or anywhere,
and at any time. These possibili-
ties explain the breadth and vital
intcrest of such an exhibition as
Lyman H. Howe's Lifeorama. For
these reasons its educational value
far exceeds that of any dramatic
entertainment and at the same time
is more amusing, For the program
also pictures the comedy not only
of one land, but of many.
