Eagles Mere is to linve a new
Methodist Episcopal church, and the
project already has the financial sup
port to assure its erection. For some
time past the need of such a church
has been recognized, and during the
past few weeks the Rev. T. F. Rip
pi ■■ of Lal'orte and the Rev. T. S.
! Wilcox, of Willinmsport, have been
jat work in earnest. Thus far tlicj
: have over $1,00(1 pledged for the new
j church and many persons whom they
I know are willing ami aide to give
| funds are yet to he seen.
Work on the proposed new edifice
will prohably be started early in the
spring, and by the time the summer
guests will have arrived at the Mere
the structure will be in readiness for
services. The Rev. Mr. Ripple is an
earnest and industrious worker in his
chosen line of work, and in his hands
the project will early be pushed lo
completion.
Secretary Wilson of the Depart
ment of Agriculture, predicts lower
retail prices during the coming win
ter season for meat, poultry, dairy
products and other necessities of
life. Ile believes the relief for the j
householder will come from lit,),
enormous yields of small grain and
corn in the great grain territories ol ,
tin' west. Secretary Wilson says:
Heavy crops have resulted in the!
normal conditions it: the great pro- ,
ditcing states. The wheat producer
has been losing money for the last
three yearn, drain cost too much.
There was no profit in feeding, !
strange as this' may seem to people
who pay such prices as we do for our
meat. Rut the heavy grass crop of
this year with the heavy corn crop
and the heavy oats crop, will all
combine to bring about normal feed
ing conditions.
Bruce Fleming of Picture Rocks i
was badly burned on Saturday about j
the face by the exploison of gas.

burn will probably leave a sear on
his face.
Last Saturday afternoon about I
i o'clock as Robert ('rammer and I
A bra in (Jore were at work on a tres
tle at the Council Anthracite compa
ny's breaker at Bern ice, the timbers j
gave way and both men fell with the j
structure a distance of :S<) feet. They i
weae conipletly buried under the!
wreckage and dirt and it took some ;
time to dig them out; their escape j
front death is wonderful. Mr. (lore;
was severely injured in the back and
other parts of his bo by. He was I
taken to the Williamsport hospital. :
Mr. Crammer escaped with it bad
gash on his head which required sev
eral stitches to close, and bruises but
was able to walk home. He is a son
of E. J. Crammer of Monroeton.
Mr. Gore was a former resident of

Last week we asked George Streby
candidate for County Treasurer,three
questions which he has not answered.
"Silence gives consent," and the I
public have a right to infer that Mr. !
Streby did testify, when examined
as a witness in the judicial contest
that he received a considerable sum '
of money prior to the election in that
year from the democratic candidates
for Representative and President
Judge; that he also received fifty
dollars from B. Worth Jennings the!
Republican candidate for Itepresen- j
tative, and that he did not goto the i
polls and vote.
Ambrose E. Kartell was the Dem-1
ocratic candidate for Representative |
at that time. He was an honorable
and trustworthy man. Mr. Streby j
claimed to be a democrat; he was i
publishing a democratic newspaper; i
let him now answer why he did not
g> to the polls and vote for Farrell. !
Ha l the fifty dollars paid to him
by B. Worth Jennings anything to
do with it?
