DEAL
The convention held at the Luther-
an Church Saturday night was largely
attended and all had a very nice time.
Mrs. Harrison Hersch spent Monday
with Mrs. P. W. Suder.
Floyd Caler had the misfortune of
cutting his foot on Monday while he
was working for Herman Shockey.
Miss Nelle Housel, of Meyersdale,
place.
spent Sunday with her parents of this |
eastern part of the city,where the son
attended school. Monday was the
first day of half-session school and
young Hemminger and some compan-
ions went to Island Park to swim.
Among the boys was Chester Brown-
agle, aged 11 years
After young Hemminger had re-
turned to the island, following a swim
in shallow water, Brownagle got in
to a swift current and was carried
swiftly downstream. He shouted for
a rope. This Brownagle missed. Hem-
inger swam out after the drowning
boy. As Hemminger overtook his
companion the former sank and disap-
peared. The cries of the boys on the
island attracted the attention of a
‘sand drédger and he pushed a sand
float in front of young Browagle and
pulled him out of the water.
Search for the body of young Hem-
minger was continued until long after
dark Monday, but the searchers were
unrewarded for their efforts. Repre-
sentative Hemminger offered a reward
of $100 for the finding of the body.
The Rev J. Eliott Wright, chaplain
of the house, during his prayer at the
opening session Monday eyening re-
ferred to the death of the boy and
Tuesday a resolution of sympathy
was presented.
Dr. Hemminger, whose home is at
Rockwood, is well known throughout
the county as one of the leading prac-
titioners. The sad news of the death
of his son reached here on Tuesday
noon and much sympathy is expressed
for the bereaved parents. Interment
will in all probability take place at
Rockwood.
KILLED AT M’SPADDEN
The body of George Slavin, aged
about 40 years, who was run down and
instantly killed at McSpadden by train
No. 5 on Monday evening, was brought
to the Reich morgue on train No. 16
the same evening and prepared for
burial. Among other things found in
the unfortunate man’s pockets was a
certificate from a labor employment
agency in Chicago setting forth that
his residence was on Ogden avenue in
that city, and that he had accepted
employment from the agency on a job
being done by the Pennsylvania rail-
road at Newcomerstown, Ohio. He
also had a pawn slip from a Connells-
ville money lender showing that he
had pawned his watch for $1.00 on the
same day that he met his death. The
remains will be held here pending
word from his Chicago friends, who
have been notified. The remains were
shipped to Chicago on Tuesday.
SECURED BIG FEATURE
An announcement that will appeal
| wonderfully to its ever-widening circle
of readers in this community has just
been made by the Pittsburgh Dispatch
to the effect that the world-renowned
George Ade, master hand at the art
of fable making, will write exclusively
for that popular journal. ‘‘Newest
Fables in Slang,”’ the title of the lat-
est from the Ade factory for sprightly
humor of pith and point, will begin
appearing in The Sunday Dispatch

for many weeks.
The famous George opens his big
series with ‘The New Fable of the
Speedy Sprite’’, one of the best he
ever produced.
