Edward Neville, a seventeen year old boy of Willianisport, fell from a freight train near Halls Saturday, had to submit to amputation of both feet iu the evening of the same day at the Willianisport Hospital, one foot at the ankle antl the other ju>t below. The heavy shower on Tuesday afternoon caused considerable dam age along the Muncy creek. At Soncstowu the house owned antl occupied by Wilson Starr was al most completely undermined and the porches badly damaged by the rushing water from the hillside at the foot of which the house stands. The Muncy creek became a raging stream and damaged fields through which it took its course after over flowing its banks. Many friends of Milton Hotsford were disappointment over his fail ure to to secure the nomination for County Commissioner. Without any disparagement to others it was felt that Mr. Itotslord by qualitU'dtion and service was entitled to a place on the ticket. This feeling was en tirely natural and proper and the future will show in what esteem Mr. liot-ford is held lie is certainly a desi rving and capable man and we predict that the manly way iu which lie took Id- defeat will make him a winner in the near future. rite ball game between the Eagles Mere and Laporte teams mi TiM-wluy had to stop at the tifth lulling on account of the severe thunder ->hou or coming up at that tiui<\ Many vl-s --■ tor* Kaghst Mere were h< re to see the game and much di appoint ment was felt when it iMViime 111 its ury for the hoy-> to top playing. The Republican Convention held on the 12th inst was composed of representative men from all over the county distinguished for their intelligence anil patriotism. The ticket selected is without blemish, and fairly represents every section .•1..: L.tercst of the county. TIIO candid ales are men thoroughly qual ified fir the duties of the office for which they have been nominated For information we obtained on the day of the convention ahd since that time wo are fairly convinced that every man of them will be > elected. In stating our convictions that all of our candidates w ill be elected we assume that not only Republicans but a goodly number of independent citizens will join in electing them. This is by no means a hide hound party ticket, hut fair and liberal to all, and must commend itself to all considerate taxpayers who wish the burdensome taxation in this county made lighter. Next week we shall give a more special notice to each of the candi dates. The rural mail delivery system is still growing. There are now :>2,tl.jK routes -a gain of 7,:l!l2 over last year. Plans are being made to number the hexes 011 a rural route siui 'wh t like the mail boxes in a postolHc.,'. Free mail delivery has become a settled part of life in many country neighborhoods. While, as with every other public convenience, there are some causes for complaint, the people would never permit the sy - tem to he given up. < >ll the other hand they demand an extension of the privilege. The success of free delivery is (he best argument for a parcels post, which we shall surely have just as soon as 10,110( >,O( M > coun try people realize that they are more powerful than live express companies The Klmira Gazette of a few days ago says: Orlauda Tong, the llorse heads resident who attempted to murder his wife and then commit suicide by shooting himself a couple of weeks ago, was taken worse to day and removed from his cell in the Chemung county jail to the Aruot < )gden Hospital for treatment. fong has been in jail for the past week or more and up until last night seemed to lie 011 the road to recovery. Last night, however. Tongs wound pained him and to-dav he was much worse, and it was deemed advisable to send him to the hospital. Tong, after the shooting was not expected to live. Doctors who examined the wound said it was a serious one. The 111111 it was located hut could not he lemoved. lie was taken to tlie Arnot Ogden Hospital and began to improve from the first and his con dition was such as to permit of his removal to the jail. It is now feared however, that the wound was much more dangerous than was expected and the would he suicide may yet die. Mrs. Tong is recovering nicely. On account of the extremely coo! weather Wednesday evening, the annual supper given by the ladies of the Methodist church and which was to have been held 011 Mr. Pink ie's lawn, was served in the church. A palatable supper was provided and a large number of persons went to the church for their -upper and all expressed themselves as well pleased with the many g >od things served to them. The ladies deserve much credit for the prompt manner in which the wants of the dinners were attended to.
