The reason the new state road is not yet commenced is that the contract has been held by the town commissioners nearly two weeks. It was signed yesterday and for- warded to the county commission- ers and from there it is to go to the state commissioners, who will sign and return it to Surveyor Walker.

The Waverly team did not get down to work until the first half was completed and all of the score was made in that part of the game. .| The new rules were adhered to, which was something of anianova- tion, but our boys showed skill and goed training from the start It was harmonious all through and no “kicks” were registered, One of the Waverly team had his knee put out of joint and another, Al- bert Flynn, was badly injured in the head and was taken off the grounds in an insensible condition. He had a tackle with Verne An- drews, and fell, and Andrews’ knee struck him in the side of his head above the ear, and he was knocked uncoascious. Dr. Cowell was sent for and some of the boys took him into a wagon and started for town, meeting the Doctor at the bridge.

T00K ALONG A TALKING MACHINE Chief Mulligan and other officers of the borough have been on the scent of petty thieves who have been robbing houses and chicken cocps in this vicinity for some time, Yesterday they went to the cove and searched the home of Adelbert Johnson and they found parts of harness, a silk waist and other property that had been stolen from D. E. McMahan, It is thought that other property was concealed while the officers were making the search. Johnson and wife were arrested and brought be fore E-q Johnson at about sj o'clock last evening, and after a hearing they were held to answer to court under $200 bail each. Not securing bail Constable McGovern took them to Towanda jail this morning. They evidently expect to have a gocd time of it for they took a graphaphone along to make music with.

These rates are extremely low, and will be in ellect un- the cther was an exponent of his principles but chooses to style himelf a Democrat. The Press can not serve the “Gang” by such stuff in this Con- gressional district. The people have reached a point at which they are in- different as to what a man calls himself, but are greatly concerned as to what the man really is. Henceforth the man who gets their voles must be the embodiment of their principles. A possible slight disagreement on some point that is comparatively dormant, shall not be magnified =o as to appear equal to the vital, the pressing, issues of reform. The President is probably not informed as to conditions in this district. If he ever gets the facts, he will not be for Mr. Lilley. He would have every- thing to gain and nothing to lose by supporting Mr. Kipp. With his velo power he is a sufficient negative clement to counteract any possible legislation deemed unfavorable to the interests of the country. But he greatly needs such men as Mr. Kipp in Congress to support positive acls necessary to curb rapacious corporations and throttle greed. Why should he need such Con- gressmen, as Mr. Lilley, who do not agree with him as the article suggests? Does the President need to be protected against himself The article says you should destroy the Machine by plercing its heart and should not alm at its members. This is a very vague idea and seems to be of the same stuff used to bolster up the Machine in the past. As a fact the heart of the Machine is commensurate with its body. The only way ils ac- tivity can be subdued is by utter extermination, root and branch. It is a set- tled principle that in an operation for cancer every particle of the malignant growth must be removed. Fallure to do so results in renewed and more rapid growth than ever. No doubt the President would prefer to have genuine Republicans elected to Congress, but if a Democrat Is returned from this district, no one will be to blame but Mr, Lilley and his backers. Mr. Lilley had warning through last Fall's election and other signs that he could not be nominated by fair means, so he held his “snap convention” to defeat the wishes of the people. Then, when there were evidences that the Lincoln party had determined to have a candidate of their own, he immediately took means to defeat them and pre-empted the Lincoln column on the official ballot in his own interest through a lot of political tricksters. Still fearing that a certificate of nomin- ation by Lincoln conferees might stand, he made arrangements with the to the far west take advantage Boston.—Rising above theroof tops the church spires of the Black Bay than Bunker HIlIl monument, the magnificent pew Christian Science, at once the largest, the costliest church edifice In this part remarkable world Juge 10, It Is two years since the corner | stone was laid, and day and might | since then more than 300 men have been employed to hurry the structure to completion.

Space was provided for more than a mile of mag- pificent mahogany pews, which give a seating capacity of 5000, which is more than five times the capacity of the old South church, more than three times that of Trinity and twice that of Tremont temple or the cathedral of the Holy Cross.
