The suspension fis indefinite and the amount of the fine tacked on was $5.00. Speaking of tho incident the Blooms burg Daily Sentinel says : "When Hine camo to Bloomsburg from Johnstown, ,'he was hailed with joy, but it is evident that he came to the conclusion that there was no ono else iu the Susquehanna League but Hine. After the game at Danville, where his work showed that lie was not keeping himself in proper condi tion, he showed an indifference when told about it by Mr. Sharploss. The real trouble, however, was at Milton, Tuesday, when he was told togo in the box and refused point blank to do so. ' Without doubt Hine is one of the best pitchers in the leaguo and up un til the Danville game was a hero among the fans. Even now, if he would get down to business, it would lio ih BliUit 11 ill o beluic 11© wuuld be back in the game. He certainly could not complain of poor treatment here for he has been given a chance in the box at almost every game since he came here, in order that he might get good control, while Shatto and Sharadin were putin the outfield or on the bench. • Hine left town Wednesday and de clared to his friends that he'd never wear a Bloomsburg uniform again, it is said." Hine was in this city yesterday and attended the Danville-Huntingdou game. CLOTHING CAUGHT FIRE The two-year-old child of Adam Reeder, who resides along the P. & R. railroad near Hemlock street, while in the house alone Tuesday eve set fire to its clothing and cauiejwithin an ace of being fatally burned. The accident happened about six o'clock. Mrs. Reeder had stepped out leaving her little son, Howard, in the basement alone. A few minutes later the woman heard tlie'child screaming ami rushing into the house,found that his clothing was on fire. In her fright and excitement Mrs. Reeder grasped the little one and endeavored to tear off his clothing. By that time the flames had enveloped marly the whole body. At that juncture Richard Sheppard, a neighbor, happened to pass the open door and observing that the child was on fire rushed into help. Exerting all liis strength,with Mrs Reeder,he suc ceeded in tearing all the clothing off the el il I before the undergarments were coi suui The left arm of the little one was shockingly burned, but elsewhere on the body no serious injury was inflict ed. The hair was burned but it is not thought that the child inhaled any of the fire. Mrs. Reeder thinks that the child's clothing took firo from tlie cooking stove. i Wouldn't Allow Crepe On Door. Edward Hickey died on Tuesday at his home in Shaniokin. When the un dertaker ami his assistants had prepar ed the remains for burial and were about to place the customary crepe on ! the door,the family objected and posi tively refused to allow the usual sign of mourning to grace (he panel of the i door. They gave 110 reason for the j strange mandate. Died at 107.

Simmons of Pottsville, who lias tho contract for cleaning,painting and adjusting the river bridge, was in this city Tuesday. In company with the county commissioners lie went ov er the entire bridge inspecting the work. Mr. Simmons declares himself as well satisfied with the progress being made considering the great amount of rainy weather,during which the work of painting oould not go forward. Tho first span of the bridge was very dirty in addition to which the ironwork was badly in need of adjustment. Thirty-three men were employed Tuesday. As far as the sixth span the first coat is applied. Four spans have received the second coat- Michael Cain, a practical bridge builder in the employ of Mr. Sim mons, Tuesday, was engaged in ad justing the iron work, the different parts of which as the result of con- : tinned use and fast driving have lost their true relative position. The ex port employed on this branch of the work is Michael Cain, who assisted to build the bridge and who a yoar or so ago was employed by the county com missioners to adjust the iron work. Mr. Simmons, who is a practical bridge builder and may be taken as authority,states that fast driving over a bridge of this sort is certainly det rimental to it. Mr. Simmons does not think that the practice of speeding automobiles over the driveway is quite as injurious as the practice of trotting horses across. The motion imparted to the iron work by a trotting horse is peculiarly wearing, and a bridge soon goes from bad to worse. Some of the iron rods were tightened up yesterday ; othors were slackened, and as a .result of the adjustment the ironwork will not swing so badly for a while, but it was .explained that, if the county commissioners desire to pre serve the bridge, they will have to take some action that will curb fast lUlviug. Mr. Simmons says the painters are subjected to annoyance by persons vis iting the bridge. Some of these in their zeal to test the quality of the work, with their canes or umbrellas rub the paint off the iron before it is dry. The worst annoyance is probably caused by the boys, who persist in the former practice of climbing up the batter posts and sliding down the new ly painted incline. The effect of all this is to spoil the work and Mr. Sim mons thinks that attention ought to be called to the matter. SIGNS ARE OBSERVED j The erection of signs 011 our streets ■ to carry out tho provisions of the auto mobile act is already having a salutary effect. The driveis of motor vehicles j are doing their best to keep the speed down to the legal limit, all of which 1 shows that automobilists are well I posted on the law and do not care to j invite trouble by running through j town too fast. Up to tho very day I when the signs were erected fast and reckless running through town,especi ally by strangers, seemed to be the rule. Since that timo, although the officers have been on the lookout for violations, none have occurred. It is unfortunate, however, that the wording as laid down in the act was not literally followed in preparing the boarus. The :;iis as described are to ; contain the words: "Danger: run 1 slow." Instead, on the boards erected | are the words: "Danger: go slow. " This ei ~>t is deplored bv the officials in whose hands tho enforcement of the | act remains and they think a correc i rion should be made as speedily as possible.

TOBACCO PRICES ARE GOING UP After the beginning of next month, the users of tobacco may look for a change in size of their boxes or bags of tobacco. This increase will be the result of the new revenue will go into effect on July Ist. The tax on tobacco will be raised 3 cents a pound while that of cigarettes will be boost ed from 25 to 60 cents per thousand. This advance the dealers state, can only bo overcome by an increase in the price or a decrease iu the size. The wholesalers and the retailers are des tined to lose nothing, as the price per pound will be made up in tho number of small packages. True, it will be hard to decrease the size of the ciga rette,but there may not be as many in the package. Some of tho dealers are undecided as to whether they will in crease the price or whether they will shoulder the extra tax themselves. Under the new law the dealers will be allowed to placo smaller packages of tobacco on the market. The small est size now allowed is the one ounce package, while the now law allows the putting up of tobaoco in one-half ounce and three-quarter ounce pack ages. Another reduction of the pack age is made in the case of little cigars which woigh less than throe pounds to the thousand. Tho smallest number that can be retailed in a box at pre sent is 12, but after July Ist, 5 and 10 will be legal. This will apply to little cigars sold in one rate of $1.25 per thousand. On the largo sizo of ciga rettes the tax is raised from $3 a thou sand to $3.00. The Conservation of Nature'* Resource* Applies as well to our physical state as to material things. O. J.

P., in the balloting at the armory in Sunbury Saturday night to take the place made vacant by the promotion of General C. >l. Clement. Major W. C. King, who had been a candidate for the rank at the previous session, withdrew, leaving Major Wil liam F. Follmer, of Lewisburg and Capt. Hugh H. Taylor, of Bellefoute in the field. The result of the ballots was a tie, IT to 17. There are at pzesent two vacancies in the regiment, Capt. John B. Beck, Co. I, having gone on the retired list and Lieut. T. R. Hayes, of Co. I), having resigned. The election was conducted by Gen. Clement, who announced at the be ginning that if lie saw that there would be a deadlock at any point he would stop the balloting. After seven ballots were cast ho ad journed the meeting. • Major Follmer had the same num ber of votes as before while all of Major King's supporters representing the companies at the upper end turned to Capt. Taylor. Being unable to break the deadlock at Saturday evening's session the elec tion was adjourned without date mak ing a new order necessary when an other attempt is made. In the meantime Lieutenant-Colonel William F. Barber will command the regiment and it is now improbable that another attempt at holding an election will be made before camp.

LAST YEAR RECALLED 11 While the wet and cloudy weather, : prevailing for the last month or so, 1 ! which has kept out the cheerful sun ' j shine soaking the oarth and dam pen | ing the spirits of humanity, lias not I been precisely the kind to covet, nev '; ertheless it is by no means unprece- dented. Those persons who think we never had such weather before must have short memories. As a matter of fact last spriug as relates to damp and cloudy weather was nearly identical with the present. As late as June 14th the newspapers contained discouraging reports as to the crops. The cloudy weather retard ed the growth of corn aud vegetables, while as the effect of the extraordin ary moisture the weeds grew in pro fusion, the ground being too wet to enable the farmers to properly cultiv ate the fields. The rain interfered with the success of the Six-Conntv Firemen's conven tion held in Danville. On .luno 4th a settled rain hold up the work of de corating the town. On the 10th of the month, during the convention,a heavy rain caused the mud to lie in the streets to a depth of several inches aud it was necessary to eliminate East Market ami East Front streets from the route of the parade. Just as warmer and more seasonable weather followed last year so it may bo relied upon to follow this year. One of these days the clouds will break and wo shall have warm sunshine and plenty of it. Lot us hope that the'rain of which wo now have a superabund ance, may not cease altogether as last year but that wo may have a generous distribution of moisture throughout the entire season. CROPS RETARDED Farmers in this section say the cold wet weather of the past few weeks has effected crops unfavorably, especially corn. The com fields are yellow where J they should be green. Grass has grown j but slowly in spite of the wet,making i ilevelopmont so tardy that some farm- i i>rs will get only half a crop or less. ; Taken altogether, the spring of 11)10 I will be remembered as extreme. Start j ing off with excessive warmth,vegeta tion was forced naturally ahead. Then Bold came anil retarded it. Though it is very cheering to have warm weath er iu March, it is better to have it in April and May, when it is seasonable. A farmer from the northern end of the county, who has a largo acreage i)f coi u out, said yesterday: "Corn is germinating rather poorly, »ud is contending with a ' larger crop of cut-worms, with the crows and blackbirds doing their best at it. It is having a very backward start and warm weather is much needed for it. Committed to Jail.

COURT HOLOS SHORT SESSION Court held an adjourned session Sat urday morning witli his Honor, Judge Evans and Associates Blee and Wel liver on the bench. The principal business on hand was the hearing of the case of Common wealth vs. Harry Deibert, the charge being desertion and non-support. The case proved t.o one of the exceedingly unsavory sort, abounding in charges and counter-charges. The wife, who is the mother of a fifteen-month-old babe, ie nineteen years of ago. The husband is also very young. Mrs. Deibert told her story, after j which her husband was called to the i stand. Mrs. Deibert of Wilkes-Barre, I with wliom the couple boarded for awhile, and Dr. Newbaker, who at- 1 tended the wife during an illness, also testified. Judge Evans adjudged the defend- , aut guilty and sentenced him to pay the sum of three dollars per week for the support of the child and to enter into recognizance in the sum of two hundred dollars. Edward S. Gearhart asked permis- 1 siou of the court to file an amended ! statement in the case of Albert H. Deeter vs. the county of Montour. The action was brought originally, tore- ' cove,r damages for a horse that was in jured by falling on the creo-resinated blocks forming the driveway of the river bridge. The horse died recently and the amended statement relates to a new action brought to recover for ] the full value of the horse—four hun ! dred dollars. The amended statement alleges that the horse was lost as the result of the | negligence of the defendant county, I " which had taken upon itself the legal duty to keep and maintain in proper repair and in a safe and passable con dition all of the county, bridges with in its proper and legal limits. "Among the bridges committed to the care and maintenance of the borough is the "Danville river bridge," the wooden block floor of which on the 14tli day of November, 1908, was per- j in it ted by the county commissioners to ; become so slippery that the said floor ! became dangerous for those driving I over the same with horses and vehic- j les. "On November 14,1908, as the plain- 1 tiff was driving his two-horse team i hitched to a wagon over the driveway , of the said bridge, at the northern en trance or approach, within the comity of Montour,one of the horses fell down upon the floor of the said driveway, which was rendered dangerous by rea son of its slippery condition, and was then and there so seriously and fatally ! injured and crippled that it had to be killed." i Tho court permitted the amended I statement to be tiled.
