MRS KREBS 15
STILL LIVING
Condition Unchanged May Mean Hopes
for Recovery.
The condition of Mr*. Krebs, at the
hospital,remains unchanged and she is
making a game struggle in her battle
for life. Her condition remaining un
changed may mean some hope for her
recovery unless serious complications
should develop when the end would be
but a matter of hours or perhaps min
utes.
Hito is still in his cell at the North
umberland county prison and claims
that he is in no condition to be taken
to Northumberalnd, to have Ins hear
ing before Justice of the Peace Fertig.
If the attending physicians say that
Hite is too sick to be takeu to North
umberland Justice Fertig will either
continue the hearing 01 may decide to
Kummou the witnesses in the case anil
have the hearing at the jail. While
the physicians stated Wednesday after
noon that Hito was a sick man they
would not say that they thought him
too ill to be taken to Northumberland.
Before the time arrives togo it will
theu be decided whether lie it* able to
go through the ordeal at the justice's
office.
Hite had a number of callers at the
jail Wednesday, and to some he seem
ed free to talk about everything ex
cept his crime while to others he
was somewhat iudltferent. A man
claiming to be from Harrisburg called
at the jail and when Hito was told
who wanted to see him he said they
should tell his caller that he did not
want to see him. His wife is constant
in her devotion to him in his hour ot
distress and is untiring in her efforts
to help him in his hour of trouble.
Several of those who visited Hite
Wednesday expresed their opinion that
although they believed Hite is sick
they think that lie has entirely lost his
nerve and that he is playing for time
desiring to delay his hearing as long
as possible-
There is a different story curront in
Bloonisburg,where Hite regularly vis
ited, from that usually accepted in re
gard to Hite's alleged infatuation for
Mrs. Krebs. This as told Tuesday by
a man who has been closely associated
with Hite in his business transactions
in thisfcounty during last year or
more is to the effect that he had spurn
ed Mrs. Krebs and uot she him. This
man as the story goes is in a position
to know if auy one is, and he stated
positively that Hite had tired of pay
ing attention to Mrs. Krebs and was
seeking to break off tho attachment
that had sprung up. Hite told him
that he had told the woman that he
never wanted to see her face again.
He told him positively that he desired
to see no more of her.
From all the circumstances now
learned of the case Hite was evidently
telling his supposed confiding friend a
falsehood.
The same gentleman remarked that
he has noticed that Hite was uot him
self for the last mouth and tho train
of events that have occurred in Blooms
bura well substantiate the storv that
during the last tew weeks his career
has been a fast one.
An illustration of the manner of his
living is afforded by his action in busi
ness affairs. The day after the clos
ing of the Bloonisburg fair he held a
sale at the fair grounds and as the
sale was closing, before he bad receiv
ed or arranged for the payment of sev
eral thousand dollars due him, he had
a horse and carriage ixi waiting to
drive liim to the D. L. & VV. train,
having but a few minutes to catch the
four o'clock train. An employe then
chided him (or not looking after hi*
business affairs more cart-fully and he
remarked the latter could effect the
settlement with the buyers, and with
out having auy account of the receipts
of the sale hastened away to meet
some persou. This is but one illustra
tion of a number of acts of business
carelessness of which he has been
guilty. An employe of his who lias
been in Bloomsburg since tlie fair,and
who was sent for to come to Sun bury
Monday, telephoned to Bloomsburg
Tuesday that Hite had told him that
he had not shot the woman and that
he had made no confession of having
dorm so.
It is the belief of many that the cor
rect story of the shooting and the cir
cumstances and occurrences leading up
to it have not been made known many
of the details having been suppressed
of which the public are not aware.—

AN ACTION
IN TRESPASS
(Continued froui Ist page.)
offered by F II Knight, who was
Hurges.-, ot Watsontown in 1895 when
thf ordinance was enacted which re
stricted the speed ot trains passing
through the Borough to six miles an
hour.
Mr. Knight «aid that Mr. Westfall,
Superintendent of that division of the
Pennsylvania railroad, was iufoimed
ot the action of the Borough in fixing
a limit for speed and said that the
Superintendent had replied, acknowl
edging the receipt of the communica
tion and stating that if would be im
possible for the railroad company to
reduce the speed of their trains in
passing through Watsontown and yet
make their connections, hut that they
would exercise all care possible and if
anything happened they would stand
by the consequences.
The letter itself is lost. At the ex
piration of his term of office Burgess
Knight handed the letter along with
other borough documents over to his
successor, who is now deceased. A
most diligent search has failed to re
cover the letter and it is now believ
ed tiiat it was thoughtlessly destroy
ed.
At 10:30 o'clock the plaintiff rested.
Mr. Hiuckley tot the defendant im
mediately moved for a compulsory
uon-suit on the groud that the plain
tiff's case developed such contributory
negligence as would prevent the re
covery ot damages.
The remainder of the day was spent
in argument, Mr. Hinckley being op
posed by E. S. tleat hart and James
Scarlet. Each of the addresses were
penetrating and exhaustive efforts be
ing listened to with interest and deep
attention by a large audience.
The action in trespass before court
in which Mrs. Sarah O. Cromley is
plaintilf cauie abruptly to a close yes
terday morning when Judge R. K.
Little ordered a compulsory nonsuit.
The case hail been very ably argued
on Tuesday, Mr. Hiuckley, the mover,
urging that the plaintiff's case had
developed such contributory neglig
ence as would prevent recovery, while
E. S. Gearhart and .Tames Scarlet
argued against tie- non-suit. Nearly
the entire day was thus consumed.
Judge Little upon adjournment Tues
day evening stated that lie would hold
the matter under advisement and an
nounce his decision the next morning.
The case had created a vast amount
of interest, and was one of the most
important civil actions which has been
tried in this county in many years.
At the ringing of the bell yesterday
morning, therefore, a crowd of cur
ious people might have been seen
wending their way toward the Court
House anxious to loam the decision.
Judge Little announced that he had
decided to order anon suit,as it seem
ed to him that the plaintiff's side had
developed contributory negligence of
such a nature as to prevent recovery
of damages. He, however, granted a
rule to show cause >vhy it should not
bo stricken off, which makes it possi
ble that the case may be reinstated.
The damage suit in question was
the only case on the list for trial. All
the jurors not on the panel for the
trial were discharged on Monday. At
a few minutes after !> o'clock court
was adjourned to re-cnnv«n« »t the
ringing of the bell.
Among the largo number of wit
nesses subpoenaed were some twenty
from Watsontown and vicinity. A
number of these were here to testify
for the railroad company. They all
expected to remain for some days. As
a result of the nonsuit new plans were
quickly formed and the witnesses were
all enabled to leave for their homes
early in the day.
Botcher's Uucle Tom's Oabin.
The above company will appear at
the opera house on Saturday afternoon
and evening. This company, while
coming to us tor the first time, is
strongly recommended by the press
throughout the territory made by thin
organization. They carry a full equip
ment of special scenery and effects for
the proper production of this great old
drama, and the interpreting cast has
been selected by Messrs. Sun & Horner
with an idea to give the public the
best and most pleasing program of
Uncle Tom's Cabin they have ever
witnessed. In conjunction with the
drama will be seen a first class speci
alty show for the benefit of those who
have made up their minds that a Tom
show is too old a theme to bo interest
ing. In this connection we will say
features in the drama are promised in
the way of scenery ami effects that
will please and interest even that
class of patrons.

DARiNG BURGLAR
ESCAPED FROM JAIL
Olimbed Out Through an Opening Only
Six by Eighteen Inches.
LANCASTER, Pa., Nov. II .lames
Wilsou, colored, escaped from an iron
clad cell in the county jail last night.
Ho removed the iron frame of hi,- < ell
window, and one of a row ot spikes
011 the outer side and an irou ventilat
or. This gave him an opening ot not
over six by eighteen inches. He scap
ed himself thoroughly, and after get
ting through reached the roof by the
aid of a lightning rod, and the top of
the wall by climbing up the rain
spout. He then used an improvised
rope to lower himself to the ground.
He is a desperate burglar and was
recently captured in a cave near
duke's Hock, where he had a large
amount of plunder.
He was awaiting tiialat the next

The remarkable adaptability of the
Young Men's Christian Association
educational work is illustrated bv the
readiness with which new courses are
furnished in special subjects as these
are demanded by the public; foi inst
auce, in Boston a fully equipped
school in the running; construction
anil design of automobiles has just
been opened. In the West Side As
sociation, New York City, a very sm -
cessful course in the subject of interior
decoration has been started \sith a
large enrollment. At North Adams,
Mass., a center of weaving, courses of
construction are now given in textile
engineering, together with a series of
practical talks by men competent in
these lines. The railroad Associations
generally are furnishing their men
with special instruction along the line
of their business. Classes in air brakes,
steam and electrical lighting for tail
road cars and similar subjects, arc he
iug taught.
Another way in which the Associa
tion is attempting to adapt itself to
certain large groups of men who
could not well be brought within the
classes, is by giving series of lectures
and practical talks on topics which
are more or less educational in their
nature; for instance, at Chicago there
such a course is now in progress, in
eluding such subjects as "Simplicity
the Genius ol' Invention," "Anat
omy," and " Physiology and tie
Blood." At Klmira, N. V., a Prac
tical Talk Club has hi <ll formed, and
the lirst lecture reo ntlv given bv
Andrew Thomas Smith, Ph. I >., on
" American Ideals," was de-ply in
teresting. Other subjects planned ar>
"The Atmosphere," "Life lii-ui
ance" and "Oceanic Cable-," ev. In
Hartford, an illustrated talk was n
cently given 011 the coming World -
Fair at St. Louis. This will probably
result in the formation of a World's
Fair Club.
In these lectures, talks, elubs, and
special classes, the Association i
reaching many men who would not
think of taking courses in the o'dinarv
subjects taught in our evening lm-i
ness colleges or high schools, and thu
is doing a large educational work
peculiar to itself.
The classes at Dayton, Ohio, recent
ly opened under the most auspicious
oircumstances, the building being
packed from top to bottom with vounu
men eager to pay their fee- and be en
rolled in the classes and fearful that
these would be filled up before th ir
applications would be made. Men sat
on benches, on tallies, or on window
sills, or stood by the hour, while the
Instructors were trying to give tin ir
firnt lessons and to plan tin* work to
the best advantage. The mechanic »1
drawing class opened up with nearly
twice as many men as there was ac
commodation for, and will probably
reach an enrollment of 17-~>. Th
machine-shop practice classes are fill
ed, and the waiting 1 i>t is almost as
large as the enrollment. New classe
are being formed in steam engine. r
iug, mechanics advanced arithmetic,
Latin, and English for Germans

The doctor pushed bark Ills break
fast with some irritation. Mrs. Dyers'
voice sounded as If it had been sharp
ened on the grindstone.
"It's not that I want you to marry;
It's that you've not had an opportunity

cakes and you've hardly speakln' ac
quaintance with a man. If you don't

"Please don't count," said Jane's
teary voice.
"The belle, and now the laughin'
stock! YoOr Aunt Jane, she's had her
nose In the air since her Mary mar
ried; said they were pityin' you at
the sewin' circle--pityin' my daughter
and me, tho belle of this whole county
—Jane Byers, if you've got no pride
about beln' beauless and likely to stay
so, since I've been a good mother to
you"—sob—-"try"—sob—"to stir your
self to get one."
Half ashamed, the doctor got up and
looked from the window. Mrs. Uyers
had gone. On the back steps, with her
elbows on her knees, Jauo rested her
delicate face on her palms.
Although the whole sweep of his life
was away from women, the doctor felt
Borry for Jane—poor Jane—white,
shrinking, Infolded as n lily bud.
When her head went down and she
began to s«b he slipped away. In his
early days there had been a little girl.
When she died that door of his life was
softly closed.
In the quiet of his workroom he
tried to absorb himself in the latest
scientific discovery, but in vain. Jane's
pathetic face peered out of every page.
At last he frowned heavily Into the
hall.
Jane, coming on flying feet, stopped
short at sight of the frown. Then she
summoned her courage and with it an
April shower of words:
"Would you, since you're so ol—since
you are going away tomorrow—oh, I
don't know how I dare! I'll never take
advantage. She's putting nothing
against thirty, and It's awfully uncom
fortable. I'll cross my heart to say
'No.' Will you—will you"—
"Miss Jane Byers," Interrupted the
big specialist, who was outwardly very
JANE AND THE CITY CHAP INDEK THE
ETEItNAL CHEltliY THEE.
BTftv*. "will vou do me the honor to
share a pile of hard earned money and
Incidentally my hand"—
"Thank you; oh, thank you!" gasped
Jane. Bho was gone.
An engaged man without an effort,
the doctor leaned back and laughed.
Presently he sighed. Since he was so
Of late years there ure telephones in
Weavcrtown. They run into the me
tropolis of Huncome. Wonderful things
telephones! The doctor hung up the re
ceiver of his well satisfied. lie was
going to show Jane Ityers that he
hadn't stepped out of a page of Plu
tarch, as she seemed to think.
At 4 o'clock Mrs. Ityers went to a
missionary meeting; at 5 o'clock the
doctor, with his arms filled with llow
ers and candy boxes, pushed by the
very excited "help" and into the Ityers
hall.
He sent Jane a note that ran:
"An unoriginal and engaged man—
you see this by the flowers -I ask you
In the name of humanity to come
quickly and relieve the strain on the
Weavertown eyes."
Shyly conscious and wearing his
roses, Jane came.
The doctor handed her to the high
seat of the cart, climbed up beside her,
tho groom stepped back from the
horses' heads, and they swept down
the long white road.
Jane tilted her chin and looked at
him shy eyed. Lily buds unfold when
wooed by the sun. They drove straight
toward the great hills, and the wind,
sweet with the gathered sweets of the
day's Journey, blew In their faces.
The doctor smoked, catching a light
from the flame of a match held In the
hollow of his hand. The smoke blew
In Jane's face, and she sniffed it with
solemn Joy.
As they climbed the hill to Weaver
town an enormous blood red moon wa
vered on Craggy's violet crest and
stared at them.
The doctor stared back. He was
growing sentimental, and he knew It.
"Jane," he said
Jane started.
"Jane."
"Don't," said the girl unsteadily.
"It's--it's a dear moon, I know. It
makes old gentlemen and young lassies
a bit mad."
"I er"— floundered the doctor. His
tongue hadn't fashioned sweet speeches
in so long.
The horses stopped. From some
where the groom sprang to their heads.
"I—er"— said the doctor.
"Good night," said Jane, breathless,
"goodby." She whirled up the walk.

Jane seemed such a mournful little
white heap all alone under the cherry
tree that the doctor went over.
"Jane," he said, "I want something."
"The little girl who died?" asked
Jane, with a show of sympathy she
didn't feel.
"The little girl who lives," said the
doctor mournfully.
Jane stared at him wild eyed. Sud

"You're an Incomprehensible young

Again Jane laughed. Then she drew
him down and took his face between

The societies met on Sundays, but

and, win :i neither Wesley nor any
other clergyman was present, spent
the hour in prayer and religious con
versation or exhortation. From ex
hortation before the society to formal
preaching before it was only a step,
but to Wesley if seemed a very long
step.
While in I'.ristnl he learned, one day
in that one of his converts,
Thomas Maxfield, had been preaching
before the Foundery society, lie hur
ried up to London to stop it. TUit his
mother, who since the death of her
husband had been living in a room of
tho Foundery building, mot him with
a protest, "John, take care what you
do with reference to that younn man,
for he is as surely called to preach as
you are." Admonished by this coun
sel from one whose caution on all
churchly matters he knew to be quite
equal to his own, Wesley reluctantly
consented to hear Maxfield preach.
After listening, he exclaimed: "It Is
the Lord's doing. Let him <lO em

MOVER BROS.
DKAK SI FT:
1 think that every man that has a
team of horses or any stock, ought to
have a bottle of Moyer's White Liniment
in the stable or his house. I had a
horse that stepped in a hole with his
front foot, coming down the mountain
with a trail of props, and fell forward
and strained his shoulder blade. That
it swelled so fast that we could hardly
get the collar off, and in two hours his
neck was swollen to all the skin would
hold. We used your White Liniment
freely,and in a few days he was to work
again, and does not show any signs of
lameness. It worked like magic.
Respectfully Yours,
J. A. BARTHAST.
