SUSQUEHANNA LEAGUE OUTLOOK In base halt circles the ({ucstion that lias lieeu uppermost so far as this sec tion is concerned, is whether or not the Susquehanna league will agaiu oc cupy the boards next season. lip at Nanticoke, the athletic as sociation is now preparing to hold a week's fair to get the team placed up on a sound financial footing and to he able to start out next season in shape that will cause no financial worries for some time at least. The response to the appeal made by the athletic as aociatiou lias been so generous that there is no doubting the fact that Nanticoke citizens want their town to be iepresented by a team next year for, ordinarily speaking, it's a tough proposition to arouse base bail enthusi asm in November. This word from Nanticoke settles all doubt as to whether Nanticoke will be represented by a team next year and assures, without doubt, at least four teams with which to stait the season. Danville, Bloomsburg, Berwick anil Nanticoke can be depended upon to turn out teams next year and it would uot be surprising, if, when tho time comes, Shickshinny is counted among those present. That town has always been ready to stick by the ship and while'the reports as to next year were not the most encouraging toward the close of the season,yet it is understood that by hard work the athletic associa tion managed to keep tho wolf from the door. Nescopeck, it can be accepted as a fact, will not be in the game next year. Nescopeck was a good base ball town as long as Berwick had no team to draw the local patronage, but with that source of revenue cut off, Nesco jieck traveled a rocky road. It would be almost suicidal to attempt to place a Susquehanna league team in that town next year. There is considerable talk of Ply mouth joining the league circuit next year and a rumor that Ambrose West, one of that town's wealthy men, will back the proposition. Should this be come a reality, it would mean a big thing for the league and would be particularly beneficial to Nanticoke, their natural rivals, and Shickshinny, as well. Plymouth is a good-sized town, with patronage sufficiently wide to insure good attendance with a team that is in the race. It would be well for the mauagers of the league to get together before long and determine just where the proposition stands. Get the Genuine Always.

THORNTON GETS VERDICT The United States court at Philadel phia yesterday upheld the cause of Oscar Thornton in the case which Thornton brought against the Ameri can Car and Foundry company at Ber wick for the loss of an eye in that company's plant there. The case lias been in the courts a long time. It was first taken trom the Columbia county court to the United States court at Williamsport where Thornton recieved a verdict of $3245.

GOLD-HEADED CANE Alexander Ashton, Sr., an old em ploye at Howe & Samuels' puddle mill, who has retired after many years faithful service,on Saturday afternoon was presented with a handsome gold beaded cane by his fellow workmen. At his next birthday in January Mr. Ashton will be seventy-four years of age. For twenty years past he has been employed by Howe & Samuel and operated the ore crusher. Through diligence and prudent economy he has amassed a competency, which enables him to spend his declining years with out hard work. He therefore decided to resign his position ami take life easy. Mr. Ashton was very popular about the mill,and when his fellow employes heard that he intended to retire they decided to present him with a gold headed cane as a token of their esteem. The fine testimonial came as a great surprise to Mr. Ashton. The cane was purchased through James Dailey, the jeweler.
