V fCovnty Scat "1 I Local and Personal Events [ Tersely Told. j Attorney J. 11. Thayer of Dushore was in town last Saturday. Clothier Ileyman Ilerr of Muney Valley, was transacting business in [own Wednesday. Mr. CJ. S. Eddy is seriously ill with neuralgia of the nerves and kidnay trouble. lie is reported some better and out of danger. Mr. and Mrs. John I). Reeser of Dushore, are in New York purchas ing their large and complete line of Fall and Winter goods juid millin ery. Messrs. Hurkholder and Drink, the Eagles Mere young men who have been campaingin? with the American army in the Philippines, have returned home. Mrs. E. S. Chase and daughters, Edith and Helen, of Eagles Mere, arc the guests of the former's sister, Miss Fannie Meylert. Mortimer Funston returned to Philadelphia this week after spend ing several months with his parents in this place. Mrs. N; W. Harrows and Miss El anor Harrows of New York City, are the guests of Mr. and Mrs. E. P. Ingham. Mr. and Mrs. Theron Allen and daughter, and Mrs. Martha Gowin of New Aldany, also Mrs. A. P. Mosicr and daughters of LaJo.se, Clearfield County were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. (i. S. Eddy last week. John (iallaghcr of Costello, Pa. is .visiting bis brother F. W. Gallagher at this place. Twenty four years separates the time since Messrs John and Michael < iallaghcr last met until their visit here at this time. l)r. \V. 11. Randall is confined to bis room suffering with a badly sprained back, caused by a fall on the board walk between his house and barn. The accident occtired last Monday morning and bis injuries are slow to improve. Mrs. Emma Line, wife of Hon. J. S. Line, of Hernici, died Tuesday of ' last week, aged (II years. Her illness was of long duration and a general breaking down of her vital forces j brought her to a peaceful end. The j funeral was held September !>. A.A.Nichols, of New York, an inspector of rural delivery routes has j been in Dushoreand vicinity, inves tigating the three proposed routes starting from Dushore. Mr. Nichols is in Forksville arranging for another route in that section. It is announc ed that later on rural delivery will come for Laporte, Nordmont, Sones ; town and Muney Valley. It is very evident that the people I of Sullivan county will make a good I choice in their selection for Sheriff. Constable Frank Ruck is everywhere j recognized as the right man for the office to which be was nominated by a conservative convention. There is, however, another reason why Mr. Huck should receive the hearty sup port of Sullivan county voters, and that is the undisputed fact well set tled in tin; minds of his friends—ho is deserving and worthy of the ollice. A few days ago, when|JudgeParker addressed the Democratic editors 'who called upon him at Roseniont, be said: "I shall not take (up your time with any reference to the great issues upon which our party appeals to the people." This was certainly very wise and conservative on his part, since the public is gasping to know what the issues are and what Judge Parker thinks about them. As the ease now stands it would puz zle a Philadelphia lawyer to state the issues. A bill of particulars would be very acceptable from the Judge, sothat the jury can determine whether there is any issue save Parker vs. Roosevelt. Hut the American people will soon decide the case. All men know exactly what the policy of the Government will be for the next four years if .Mr. Roosevelt ,is elected. Certainty in regard to the future is a very potent factor, and will enable business men to make plans as well as contracts. Judge Pa rkcr can clear up the situa tion on bis side of the house by be ing equally fearless, honest, and ex plicit. Let him state the issues as be sees them, so that the people can draw their own conclusions. Mr. and Mrs. Alvin P. Miller of Muney Valley, wish to extend thanks to the friends and neighbors for their kindness during the sickness and death of Iheir child. The chick on and waftlo supper giv en by the ladies of the Baptist church, at the I\color residence, Wednesday evening, was a financial success, and judging from the way that the good things vanished from the tables, it was very evident that those who prepared the supper were most successful in their endeavors. The line of articles for salciu connect ion with the supper, was composed of a large number of very pretty and usetul things, from which the ladies realized a neat sum. Judge and Mrs. K. M. Dunham have gone to Towanda where they will attend the wedding of Miss Kugenia Dodge and Mr. Howard Biddaulph, this (Thursday) evening. Miss Dodge is a niece of Mrs. Dun ham, and spent part of last summer in Lupnrte. Katherin, wife of M. ('. Miller ol Suyre, died at the home of her bro ther, Thomas I'.
