It is said that a French engineer
now in this country is trying to
negotiate for the old Pennsylvania
canal, with a view of opening up a
water way for a ship canal from
the Chesapeake Bay up the Susque
hanna to Driftwood, thence via Ben
nett'a Branch to Pittsburg. The
object is to load sea going vessels
direct from the bitumiuous coal
fields, oil and other commerce, save
the expense of rebauling, giving
the farmers in this mountainous
region the advantage of shipping
their produce direct to tbe London
market, and take passage them
selves. Lock Haven Exprett.

Congressman Kulp.
Monroe H. Kulp, tbe newly elect
ed member of congress from tho
seventeenth district, is one of the
best known young men in Central
Peuusylvauia and oue eminently
ciualitied to 11 that high and hou..
able position.
While not auativeof this county
ho has been a resident of Shamokin
for the last thiityyeai'Hduring which
time ho has become perfectly ac
quainted with the varied interests
of the coal r gions and is thoroughly
conversant with their requirements.
Mr. Kulp is tho eldest son of tho
Into Darlington R. Kulp, and was
bom in I'm to, l!ei kH county, Octo
ber I.h.17. When ubout seven
years of ago his parents moved to
Shamokin where for tho ten years
be was ougucd about the mi lies
working in Hourly every branch of
tho coal industry, atteniling at ir
regular intervals tho public schools
of tho borough where ho received a
common school education.
At tho ago of 17 lio entered the
store of his father and remained
there until tho linu of Kulp & Me
Williams was formed iu 1878, when
he entered their employ and began
to learn tho lumber business, iu
which bo has since become bo suc
cessful. He has thus advanced from
the lowest step on tho ladder in
the business world, that of the la
borer, to the highest round that of
the manager, and whilo his progress
was rapid, it was the result of strict
attention to business and the ex
ercise oi excellent judgment, a
kindly disposition towards all with
whom ho came in contact and an
uutiring perseverance. He stands
to-day among the employers and
employed alike, one of the most
popular and best thought of men in
the business.
Mr. Kulp will take the oath of of
fice on the 4th day of March, 1895,
and take his seat in the 54th con
gross in December, 1895, to legislate
for the people of his country.
Tuesday was the coldest day wo
had this winter.
non. J. S. Biery, Esq., of Allon
town who so ably addressed the
Mass meeting here on Nov. 2nd has
our thanks for a book written by
himself entitled, "K 1 n g G rover,"
Chronicles of His Reign according
to Simonides, the Scribe of the Tribe
of Lech ay. The book is written in a
mock Scriptural style and abounds
with wit and sarcasm. President
Cleveland, and his cabinet are ar
raigned in good old Testament style
and no act of the administration
deserving public censure is allowed
to pass without the merited con
demnation of Mr. Biery's able pec.
Rumor ways there will bo a wed
ding in towu today. .

Miss I'MiKIK. I ,.si, AM) A. K. COolM,
WI'liK MMtl.lHi LAST Tllt'HS
I'AV Mol;S!.
The betiotliiucnts of storied fame
eoiisnnmtvd under the various (rac
es that give beauty and brilliance- to
hymen's nuptial song grow common,
place and dull when lovely maid and
handsome lover in our own lif(.-M ,.x.
perieiice join hearts and hands for
weal and woo. The scene i objec
tive, real more engaging and charm
ing than ever was the detailed train
of cel.. monies presented by t he
ideals (.f fancy. Even under the
sul.liniest ihllucncos of attending
friends, made most charming by
magical robes and correct livery,
when the preacher with heiivenborn
authority declares that two lives
hereafter shall bo one, and all the
favored friends are lifted beyond
tho sordid cares of physical necessi
ties, even then in the glamour of en
chanting experience one yet realizes
that it is all a fact and a pleasing
actuality of life.
Amid such scenes and such en
vironments in the handsome resi
dence of Andrew H. Ulsh his daugh
ter, Carrie L, was joined iu the holy
bonds of matrimony last Thursday
morning to Arthur E. Cooper, one
of tho publishers of this paper. The
guests were only tho family friends
of the contracting parties. Tho
scenes were none the less important
to tho bride and groom. Thero are
threo important events in a person's
life, viz., the birth, graduation and
marriage. This was one of thorn.
ert J. Bauueu, brother-in law of
the groom stationed himself at tho
North EiiHt corner of the parlor mid
awaited tho speedy arrival of the.
bridal party. The maid of honor
was Miss Mollio Tlsh, v h i ,f the
bride. The groomsi- .n was Anion
(l. Bashoar of A I i .mrg. In a
few woi'iIm the pm-Mi declared them
man mill wife. After congratula
tions on all fi.lcs a sumptuous wed
diiiu rcpurd was served. A special
design of 'lurid decorations consist
ing of chrysanthemums and Ltmi
vtru vaprinliuiH adorned the nup
tial room.
Tho bride's trosseau consisted of
a brown traveling suit trimmed with
brown velvet. Tho maid of honor
was neatly attired in a gray unit
trimmed in black velvet. Tho groom
wore a navy blue suit and a white
tie whilo the "best man" appeared
iu conventional black.
At 10:50 the bridal couple boarded
tho train amid abundant showers of
rice, old shoes, etc. Their trip in
cludes visits to Washington, Balti
more, Philadelphia and other places.
Tho entire Post force joins the
Editor in wishing tho manager and
his uewly-made bride all tho joys
and felicities that can crowu con
nubial bliss. May life's pathway be
strewn with God's choicest blessing
and a rich reward bo the Justin,
legacy of faithful lives.
