"I think I shall take Muriel out of

"There must be something defective
about the public school system, for
she doesn't know how to read yet."
Young Mother No. 2 smiled reml
niscently. "I tried that with Dorothy
last year," she said.
"With what success?"
"Well, we got on very well until
we came to double letters. There the
child balked, for she couldn't seem
to learn to spell the word without re
peating the letter twice. 'You mustn't
say b-e-M, bell, Dorothy,' I Insisted.
'Spell the word b-o-doublo 1.'
"Finally I succeeded in drilling the
doubling process Into her head only
too thoroughly, as I found one day
when I wanted to show her father
how she had progressed under my
tuition. I polntod to a lesson which
began, 'Up, up. Mary, the sun is high,'
and told her to read It. She looked
at It for a moment with a puzzled
frown, then she began confidently:
" 'Double up, Mary, the sun Is high!'
"At her father's suggestion she re
turned to school next day."

After a fierce slniKRte with a sup
posed -mad dog, George Kcsslcr, of
Pottstowti, held the animal on a trolley
track while a car ran over it. The dug
had 'bit Kcsslcr and two other per
sons. The doR, which bore every symp
tom of being afflicted with rabies, cre
ated consternation by a run of six miles
from Douglassvillc to Pottstown, bit
ing at every man and animal it met.
In Douglassvillc the dog ran .through
the village and bit Raymond Under
cufflcr, aged 14 year, as he was com
ing out of the postofhef. I'cople on the
street fled, and the dog continued to
Branicote, biting several horses and
cows on the way. The dng entered the
I.cssig iron plant, and after biting two
horses sank its teeth into the arm oi
Jacob Freeh, one of the workmen. The
dog was pursued and then turned upon
George Kesslrr, of Douglassvillc. The
animal sprang at Kesslcr's 'face, the
man and dog rolled in the snow. The
dog, with foam at his mouth, made re
peated efforts to bite Kcsslcr, and tore
his overcoat to shreds. Kcsslcr was
without a weapon and the onlookers
were apparently afraid to go to his as
sistance. Aflcr a struggle Kcsslcr suc
ceeded in pelting the dog lo the trolley
tracks and held it there until a car
came along and crushed it to death.
The grcalcst surprise of all in the no
torious Johnson murder case came at
Towando, when by direction of the
Court, the jury hearing the evidence
against Mrs. Sophia Merrilt rendered
a verdict of not guilty. This action
was taken after the District Attorney
had decided not to put Biglcr Johnson,
the dead woman's husband and a con
fessed murderer, on the stand. Mr.
Sophia Merritt was held to be the
chief conspirator in the plot that re
sulted in the killing and burning last
September of Maggie H. Johnson and
Annie Benjamin. The woman was en
tirely unmoved and seemed ullerly in
different to the situation, when the ver
dict was announced, the stoicism of
her Indian blood showing more strong
ly than ever. The cases against the
children, Alanson and Nancy, were not
pressed.
The State Forestry Commission is
preparing an amendment to the llokc
bill which provides that the commission
may grant to boroughs and municipali
ties the right to impound water on the
State forestry reservation and pipe it
lo towns or cities for the purpose of
serving citizens. This amendment would
give the commission (lie right not only
to grant such a privilege to municipali
ties, tout to individuals and corporations
as well.

. Another crash in Lancaster financial
circles was chronicled when the United
States Court adjudged Schroeder, Smilh
& Schroeder, paint manufacturers, vol
untary bankrupts. The firm consists ol
Henry M. and J. N'evin Schroeder. The
individual petition of the latter sets forth
that his liabilities arc $129,411.72 and as
sets $15,175. while that of his brotlrrr
shows liabilities of $74,647.04 and assets
of $13,975. Jn each case the firm's lia
bility is added to that of the individuals.
The suspension of the City Saving Fund
& Trust Company undoubtedly hastened
the failure, and it is the heaviest credi

The jury in the case of John Bodnar,
a young Hungarian, of Phocnixvillc,

One of the prisoner's counsel, Thomas

For the first time in the history of the
Morristown High School hazing is caus
ing trouble at t'he school. Promotion
day many new students were hazed.
After a reprimand from Principal A.
D. Eisenhower the members of the sen
ior classes agreed to abstain from fur
ther hazing. Three particular offenders
were reported to the School Board for
discipline. Despite the pledges a new
comer to the high school was seized and
bathed under a hydrant, the hazcrs not
knowing that the principal was watching
the proceeding. These offenders will be
reported to the School Board, as the
school authorities arc determined to
suppress hazing.
It is now said on good authority that
Mrs. Kate Edwards, the condemned
murderess, has written a full confession
completely exonerating Greasnn. I fcr
counsel declines to aflinn or deny the
rumor, but it is known she has made
Rome statement and this will soon be
in the hands of the Board of Pardons.
This, with the statement said to have
been secured from Mary Edwards, the
daughter, in ' which she emphatically
states that another colored man and not
Greason was the one most closely iden
tified wilh Ihe actions leading up to Ihe
murder, and will put a new phase on the
case. It is now an almost assured fact
that little Alma Edwards will be al
lowed to remain with her mother until
the date set for the execution, Thursday
of this week.
Edwin, aged 17; Lizzie, aged if, and
John, aged 9, children of George V.
laeffner, a Concstoga Traction Com
pany employe, of Brownstown, were
drowned at Wenger's Dam, on Concstoga
Creek. The eldest was skating and the
others were coasting on a hill near by.
No one saw the accident, but it is be
lieved that Edwin finally began pushing
the others on their sled on the creek when
the ice broke and all were drowned.
Some children found the sled beside the
hole and this led to a search by C. S.
Wenger and a companion, who recover
ed the bodies.
Mrs. Lester Larimer, wife of the as

COMMERCIAL REVIEW,
R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review ol
trade says:
Trade progresses steadily, all specula
tive excesses having been avoided thus
far, and the numerous negotiations now
pending indicate that the maximum of
activity is yet to come. Some irregu
larity in reports for the first month wer
undoubtedly due to exceptionally sever
weathcrT The weakness of cotton also
had a tendency to check operationi at
the South. Taken as a whole, however,
results for January were very much bet
:cr than in the same month last year,
particularly as to failures.
