Sunbury Man Met Terrible Death.
Harry I. Wetzel, of Sunbury, a flag
mau on the Eastern division of the
Pennsylvania railroad, met a terrible
deatii in the Williamsport yards at 11
o'clock Saturday morning. His train
was oil its regular run between Sun
bury aud Renovo and the cabin with
some cars was standing on a traok
while the remainder of the train was
being made up. An open switch threw
a car pushed by an engine upon the
Sunbury train's track. The car struck
the caboose, badly smashing it The j
force of the collision threw Wetzel i
out the front door aud he fell beneath j
the caboose aud the first car of his
traiu. The impact carried the cabin
and the front trucks of the colliding
car over his body before the engineer
could stop his engine.
Wetzel's body was almost severed in ;
two diagonally aud he died thirty
minutes later. The remains, in
charge by a Williamsport undertaker,
were taken to Snubury Saturday even
ing.
The deceased was born in November
9, 1871, aud entered the railroad ser
vice ou November 1, 1897, as brake
man. was ou the road almost ten
yeais when killed. He is survived by
a wife and five children, one boy and
four girls,all of whom are under four
teen years of age.
Rabies Proved to be a Disease.
Hyrdophobia is a real disease, germ
generated and iufectious, despite all
contentions of persons who have claim
ed it was only a form of hysteria.
Such is the couclusion reached hy the
government scientists at Bethseda
farm, near Washington, D. C., at
which place many strange experiments
have been tried during the past sum
mer with the idea of finally settling
the much-mooted question.
Mad dog» have been killed aud these
together with the liorses and cows
which had been bitten, formed the
basis of the experiments. The strick
en animals were retained at the farm,
aud the development of labies was
carefully followed. Aside from this,
microscopic examinations of the dead
dogs successfully isolated the germ
which is responsible for the dread dis
ease and this manner of test finally
established. Inoculated rabbits de
veloped the disease and became rabid,
thus completing evidence.
The experiments were duplicated
many times in order to develop a
multitude of testimony. In every case
the inoculated animal developed rabies
and died. The experiments were made
by the government because of a con
tention that a man bitten by a mad
dog. believing that a horrible death
awaited him, would lose his mind and
become what he believed he would.

The Columbia Guard* and Wyoming
Artilleriitn at the conclusion nf the
war with Mexioo. arrived in Danville
nu Tue*dav, July 35, IS-IN, and ou
Thursday following were accorded a
formal and impressive welcome.
A program preserved by Druggist R.
D. Magill giving the line of march,
the route of parade, addresses Ac.,
show* that the demonstration of wel
come was a nuist imposing one and
that it has probably never been nur
panned, if cqunllcd, on any occasion
since.
An impressive feature of the home
coming of the Columbia Guards lay In
the fact that, they brought aloug home
with them from the far-off land of the
Montezuma, the dead body of their
captain. Their battles, fought in the i
strongholds of a foreign foe, had been
victorious but Captain Wilson had
falleu.
R. D. Magill as well as many other
elderly people of town distinctly re- :
call the arrival of the Columbia
Guards. It was before the days of tho
railroad. The compauy arrived on a 1
canal boat, which was "tied up" in
the vicinity of the Reading Iron
works. [The body of Captain Wilsou
was on board the boat.
The remains were removed to the
Wilson home, which occupied the pre
sent site of the one-story buildiug just
south of the Montour house, but which
some yearß later was removed back
and isjnow used to house carriages in.
On Friday July 28, 1848, the day
following the demoustration of wel
come, at 10 o'clock a. m , with mil
itary honors aud the honors of the I.
O. O. F.,Captain Wilson was consign
ed to the grave in the Presbyterian
cemetery, where his bones have repos
ed for nearly three score years.
It is worthy of note that of all the
persous whose names appear in old
newspapers in connection with the
demonstration of welcome Gideon M.
Shoop, secretary of the meeting called
to make arrangements, is the only one
surviving at the present day.

An Extraordinary Inducement.
Books are plentiful nowadays. It is
true, they vary as much iu the quality
ot their reading matter as ill their
binding, but relatively speaking they
all are cheap. Notwithstanding, some
publications do not sell readily audit
is necessary to offer inducements in
the form of premiums.
Premiums aro-various and all are un
kuowii quantities. It remained for a
now publishing firm togo the limit in
t ie matter, aud to offer a building lot
as a premium.
It was to the Rev. Johu Sherman,
pastor of the First Baptist church of
this city, that the extraordinary in
ducement was offeied. The work,com
prising several volumes, which the
publishing house wanted to sell to
Rev. Sherman, was said to be worth
forty dollars. Yet the firm was will
ing to dispose of these books for only
half that sum aud to throw the build
ing lot into the bargain.
To be explicit Mr. Sherman was in
formed that, if he would pay fifty
oents down aud $1.28 per week for a
period of fifteeu weeks, he would re
ceive the set of books plus the build
ing lot, 25x100 feet, located in Pike
county, this state,opposite Port Jarvis,
N. Y.
The Rev. Mr. Sherman has no use
for the books ; neither does he care for
the building lot. The proposition,
however, was such a novel oue that
lie was constrained to start any in
quiry into the case. Probably some
thing more will be learned.
Thomas A. Edison, the great Ameri
can inventor says: "Fully eighty per
cent, of the illness of mankind comes
from eating improper food or too
much food: people are inclined to
over-indulge themselves." This is
where indigestion finds its beginning
in nearly every case. The stomach
can do just so much work and no more
and when you overload it, or when
you eat the wrong kind of food, the
digestive organs Jannot possibly do
the work demanded of them. It is at
such times that tlie stomach needs
help: it demands help, and warns you
by headaches, belching, sour stomach,
nausea aud indigestion. You should
attend to this at ouce by taking some
thing that will actually do the work
for the stomach. Kodol will do this.

THE HARRYING
OF TEACHERS
In an article dwelling upon the idea
that seems to be growing, that female
school teachers should not marry, the
Scranton Republican says:"The aver
age youug womau grows up with the
idea that some time during her life
she will meet- some man in whose
koepiug she will give her life as well
as her trust aud affections. The teach -
er does not differ from other young
women in this respect. Sometimes,
like other girls, she meets with disap
pointmeut.she goes through life a Jill
who has never been claimed by her
Jack. But ordinarily some period of
her life will bring to her a member of
the opposite sex who will claim her
and she finds that she possesses neith
er the strength nor the desire to say
him nay. So there is another vacancy
among the teaching positions, and an
other woman steps forward to take the
place that has been left open. For
what? To live and die au old maid,
happy aud contented? Not by a long
sight. To live her life just the same
as other women do, and to love aud
marry a man provided that the right
one sees anil proposes to her.
