The Williamsport News says Prospecting for gold, silver and cop by Jersey Shore capitalists, has been begun in earnest on the l!l-acro plot of Peter Bennett near Water vilie. A shaft that lias been idle for several years has been reopened and indications are favorable for the ; prosperity of the undertaking. When the mine was being worked years j ago abandonment was caused thro' a lack of capital by the Yananmn brothers of Waterville. Since that time new eyes have been set on the property and a lease has been obtained from the owner. To sell the entire right to the land Dennett asks but under the present agreement he holds a fifth and considers this a sutlicient com pensation. During tTie idleness of the shaft the owner received many ; promises from western capitalists I who wore attracted to the place by i the groat promise of the nunc when the former was working it.

Jennings, com menced lumbering in Sullivan coun ty, OK the I.oya!s-r<k mar llic Sea j man place. In |,«s" tiny ni v I heir plant to Lopez and commenced Ito manufacture lumber on a large j cale. A (few years ago the firm ! purchased large timber tracts in ! Maryland and We-t Virginia. Three years ago a large mill was erected lon the Maryland tract and a year later a still larger mill on the West ! Virginia lands. For want ot timber the firm closed lumbering in Sulli van county two years ago and moved to West Virginia. Their fair deal ing and courteous methods of doing business won for them the respect and approval of everybody. In 189-1 Mr. .Jennings was elected to the State legislature, and re-elect ed in lsiKi. He was one of the or ganizers of the First National P.ank at 1 His!tore and was a member of the board of directors until lie moved to Jenningston, W. Va.

Sail Accident. By the exploding of a toy boiler Saturday, Sterling, the Hi-year old .son of Alfred Ode, of Jamison City, was >ll severely scalded that he died at 2 o'clock .Sunday afternoon. 11•• had made himself a toy engine a«.d boiler with which he operated sev eral machines. Saturday lie was unable to get up sufficient steam in the boil r with the use of wood, whieh he had al ways burned, and then resorted to soft coal, using it for the Urst time. He was bending over the boiler when it suddenly exploded and the scalding water covered hi~ body with the ex option of his face. A com panion with him was slightly burn ed, but lie quickly ran for help. The boy was carried into the house and 1 >r. Smitligall was summoned. The skin \va- scalded oil' practically his entire body. Jle suffered fright fully until Sunday morning when he lapsed into unconsciousness. The death has cast a deep gloom over the entire community. It was re alized that the boy had a remarkable mind and plans bad been made to send him away to school that the talent might be dew loped The l<ith distrct wn.jts to be rep resented in Washington by a man who can he of service to the people of the district. Our people want the eight hour liw strengthened. Our people want corporations con trolled. Dr. Samuel is pledged to all these movements. Mcllenry, a member of the whiskey trust him self, and identified with other big corporation interests, could hardly be expected to do much toward curb ing the trust power. The people ol this Congressional district would ra her b • represented in Congress by a : lite-picker who has succeeded in business than by a man who was born with a silver spoon in iiisj mouth and now represents one of the most arbitrary of the grinding; trusts. The Trevorton Times of recent j date says: "Present Congressman, Dr. Santu- j el, of Mt. Carmel, announces him self as a candidate for re-election. I Coupled with nis natural ability, his j experience gained in the last Con- j gress and his untiring zeal in look ing after the interests of Ids constit-: uents, makes I)r. Samuel an ideal ! candidate. Jle knows well the wants of the! laboring class, for as a boy he toiled j from morn till night at the breaker! chute. In him labor has a friend tried and true and one who will i guard their interest as a snored trust. | Men of_the type (if 10. W.

I STUART KNOWS NO BOSS Republican Nominee Tor Governor li a Candidate cf the People. Edwin S. Stuart, Republican candl date for governor, la making friendt wherever hp eoes, says the Kane Re publican. In the beginning of hi 3 can vas ho stated: "I have made no deals or promises. nor lias any man or sel of men any light to make deals 01 promisee for me. If elected governor ; 112 .shall conduct my administration ac cording to the oath of oflice and for Ibo benefit and in the interest of the I only master I recognize, the people oi Pennsylvania 1 state this emphatl | caliy now, so that he who has any j other idea should oppose my election : and not complain afterward that he did not understand my position, and sup ported me under a misapprehension." If these are not the words of an inde pendent. honest man, where are we to look? Mr. Stuart was nominated in an open convention and without boss ism. Every journal in the state of J any prominence, whether Republic?, 3 I or Democratic, has acknowledged absolute integrity of Mr. Stuart. Ila means what he says. It is well known that Pennsylvania collects more in taxes from "corpora tions than any other state in the I'nion, and this in a measure will ac count for the fact that, besides meet ing all of the ordinary expenses of the state government, Pennsylvania was enabled to build tlie new state capitol and pay tor it without having to levy < n additional tax or to borrow a single dollar to do it. Money for Schools and Roads. Candidate Stuart, in commenting upon the subject of state taxation r. few nights ago, said: "While the farms and homes of the state have long been relieve/' r taxation for state purposes, (JeorgoS. Phillips of Hughesville, a young man of ii(t years died at hs home as a result of having indulged excessively in strong drink at Hughesville last Friday night. It is said that he drank at least twelve glasses of liquor, including beer, hard cider and whiskey. He soon collapsed into a drunken stupor, I from which he failed to rally. About •"> o'clock Saturday afternoon he died. The people of the town are greatly wrought up over the affair and tlie arrest of those who sold the liquor | may follow. I'Ol'ND—A good hat, by A. C.
