) Local and Personal Events'
Tersely Told. J
Mr. and Mrs. W.H. Rogers were
Sunday visitors with friends at
Forksville.
Charles Sones, the lumberman,
is about to erect a clothespin facto
ry in connection with his large
saw mill at Hasten.
The family of Mr. G. S, Eddy
attended the funeral of Mrs.Eddy's
father at New Albany on Monday.
Miss Helen Carpenter of Dushore
was the guest of her sister at this
place over Sunday.
A. E. Tripp of Wilkesßarre was
a Laporte visitor Tuesday, and
while here conveyed the title of his
dwelling on "West Main street, to
Air. George Eddy.
Mr. George Kiess of Sonestown
•was at the county seat Tuesday
transferring the title of liis farm to
his son William Kiess, who recent
ly purchased the same.
Misses Dorothy and Louise Up
man have opened dressmaking
rooms in Philadelphia. The latter
has been sewing there the past
winter.
Mr. Meylert Armstrong, the
multi-millioniare paper manufac
turer of New York, and his broth
er A. T. Armstrong, of Sones
town, were transacting legal busi
ness at the ollice of Attorney E. J.
Mullen, on Monday.
An announcement is made by
order of the State commissioner of
forestry that will enterest rural
residents. Grazing on the state
land, with the exception to two
milch cows per family,'_is to be pro
hibited and owners of herds will
have to find other grazing land
than that belonging to the State.
Application for a marriage licence
was made to Register and recorder
Myers of Lycoming county, Monday
by William Burtley Stan, aged 71
years, and Mary Ann I'arsie, aged
60 years. The application states
that they reside in Pine Township,
Columbia county. Both signed the
application by their mark.
The Republican newspapers of
Lycoming county are talking of
Edgar li. Kiess, manager of tin'
Forest Inn, Eagles Mere, as a can
didate for auditor general.
Samuel Pennock, Supt. of the
Lake Mokoma company, is in
Kennett Square on business this
week. At a recent 'Meeting of the
directors it was decided to expend
§IO,OOO on improvement of the
grounds and lake this coming sum
mer.
The Williamsport Sun in a recent
issue gave an extended account of
coal having been found at Kingilale.
Some very elaborate predictions
were made as well as many fictic
ious statements concerning the
amount and grade of the coal and
ores found there. A company of
vicinity farmers have for some time
past been prospecting and drilling
along the creek bed of.the Loyal
sock at Ringdale. Those at work
on the job are extremely reticent
as to the fruits of their labor and
at the end of each day their secrets
and coal, if they have any, always
go with them to their homes. In
the event of coal actually being
found at Ringdale, it would prove
a very expensive vein to operate as
no drainage is afforded and the
coal would be lifted through a shaft
of great depth. Parties who
actually possess inside information
of the results obtained from pros
pecting ?,t Ringdale are emphatic
in their denial of the Sun's asser
tion and say the article has no
semblance of truth.
