Judge Ralph' Little, sitting in the
Lackawanna court in Scran ton, last
Saturday, sentenced Louis Miller, aged
28 years to the Eastern penitentiary for
ten years, he having been convicted of
statutory rape on his young sister-in-law,
Hazel Olmstead, of Hollisterville. A
fine of $00 was also imposed.
Captain Ham Post and the Ladies'
Circle, G. A. R., have removed from
their original burial places, in Glen Dy

of James Northcott, Co. M, 1 7th Pa.

Now that cold weather is at hand
the usual admonition as to the care of
furnaces and stoves is timely. Anthra
cite coal fires started in long unused
heaters and ranges are apt to encounter
clogged flues, and leaky chimneys,
whereby the deadly gases escape into
sleeping rooms, frequently endangering
life. But perhaps the most common
risk is taken by such householders as
have the habit of replenishing their
stoves just before retiring and opening
the doors or removing the lids and shut
ting off the draft, with a natural view
to economy or the prospect of a ready
fire in the morning. In cases of this
sort, if there are no open windows, the
menaoo -to health and even life can
hardly bo overestimated. On Tuesday
night, Mr. and Mrs. Edward Hartung
retired to their sleeping apartment on
the second floor of their home in North
Honesdale, which is warmed by a drum
receiving its heat from a parlor stove in
the room beneath. Fortunately Mr.
Hartung, who is a butcher, and hence
an early riser, set his alarm clock to
awaken him at4 o'clock in the morning.
Aroused by the continuous ringing at
that hour, he attempted to rise, but
found himself at first barely able t0
move. Awakening Mrs. Hartung after
considerable effort, she was found to be
nearly as helpless as himself. Finally he
managed to reach and raise a window,
and the fresh air thus admitted doubt
less saved two lives which otherwise
would have been sacrificed. Both Mr.
Hartung and his wife were made death
ly sick by the poisonous fumes inhaled,
and it was not until noon that they were
fully recovered.

THE POSTOFFICE.
Where the Fault Lies for Our Un
satisfactory Delivery Service.
The Railroads to Blame.
The Post Office Department at Wash
ington having written postmaster Allen,
stating that complaint had been made
of unsatisfactory city delivery service in
Honesdale, an'd asking for a statement
of facts, Mr. Allen has forwarded to
the First Assistant Postmaeter General
the following reply, which cannot fail to
convince the department, and incident
ally ought to satisfy the patrons of the
office, that the fault is not with the post
master or carriers but with the misera
ble train service to which they arc sub
jected, and of which we are the vic

The Farvlcw Hospital.
Fine Progress Being Made With
the Work Fifty-two Men and
Ten Teams Employed.
Work on the new Pennsylvania State
Hospital for Criminal Insane, now in
course of construction at Farview is be
ing carried on very satisfactorily.
The forty ton steam shovel is doing
splendid execution and is removing from
1,000 to 1,200 cubic yards of earth per
day. On Thursday of last week two ex
perienced engineers, William Prichard
and Eugene Young, were placed In
charge of the shovel and since then ex
traordinary results along those lines
have been obtained. The D. & 11. R.
R. Co. havo constructed a siding on the
State grounds, east of the D. & H. sta
tion, which will accommodate a large
number of cars. There are in all about
fifty-two men and ten teams employed.
A report became current a week ago
that a strike for higher wages had oc
curred among the owners of teams but
such was not tme. A few farmers who
had more than enough work in lumber
ing, after sleighingcommenced, did take
their teams from the works but the
supply is geeater than the demand.
A welcome addition to the corps of
employees in the person of Mr. Jason
Johnson arrived from Philadelphia on the
9th inst., and took charge of the clerical
department. Many years ago Mr. John
son was assistant paymaster for the D.
& H. Co., and many old railroad men
will be glad to know that the genial
Jase," although now 73 years of age
is as youthful in feeling and action as
when he paid the employees of that
company forty years ago.
The men from Philadelphia who have
accompanied Contractor Glenn, and
are employed at the Hospital, are pleas
ed with Farview and its surroundings,
and many of them say they will never
n return to the City of Brotherly
Love, but will make the pretty little
village of Waymart their future home.
Chief Architect of the Hospital, J. C
M. Shirk, makes weekly visits to Far
view for the inspection of the work, and
last Friday he was accompanied by State
Senator Sterling R. Cat I'm. of Luzerne
Co., who is a member of the CoramiS'
sion to erect the Hospital.
During the early part of the past week
the Consolidated Telephone Co. placed
telephone in the Contractor's office,
and by the 19th inst. telephonic com
munication will be established with the
proposed Hospital.
How It Happened.
Mrs. Mary S. Roper, of Brooklyn,
whose involuntary and thrilling aeronaut
ic experience at the Elleiiville (N. Y.)
Fair, August 29, 1906, was in part de
scribed in our last issue, told her story
the Supreme Court in session at
Kingston, N. Y., on Monday last, as a
witness in her own behalf against the
Ulster County Agricultural Society for
$25,000 damages. After being sworn she
testified as follows :
"With some other Brooklyn people
who were spending the summer at Walk'
er Valley, where l was finishing a six
weeks' vacation," she said, "I attended
the fair. A watchman told us to be
careful until the poles fell that support
ed the balloon. Then everybody crushed
up close to the balloon and nobody tried
to keep us back."
"The first thing I knew I felt some'
thing tugging at my ankle. I reached
down to see what was the matter, and
the first finger of my right hand
was caught. The next thing I knew
was being dragged through the crowd
"My body struck against a man and
knocked him down. Then my tace
hit against the gas pipe, and I remem
ber going up, I think I fainted.
"When I came to, I was away up in
the air, hanging by my ankle and one
finger. Maggie Daily was the aeronaut,
She-called to me to hold up ray head.
" 'My God, I cannot I' I called back
to her. 'It's hanging down and I can't.
"Then l fainted again, and was un
conscious when we landed. When
came to ugam sue was rubbing my
hands, but I told her not to do it be
cause it hurt."
Mrs. Roper said her injuries included
a broken finger, bruised face, cut eye,
fractured collar bone, sprained ankle
and strained back.
Mrs. Mary Hessy and Frank H. Breit
enbacber, of Brooklyn, testified that no
attempt was made to keep spectators
away from the ropes, A photograph
showed Mrs. Roper as a mere speck
against the sky. She was taken up
nearly half a mile.
A motion for a non-suit on the ground
of contributory negligence was denied.
The defense claims the crowd was con
tinually ordered back, but Insisted on
pushing forward,

scribers. At nearly four cents apiece for
eggs more than good oranges cost the
present price, we should say it did. A
Harrisburg man kept 14 hens durinc the
past year, at a cost of $1.15 per hen, and
gathered from them 1,45(1 eggs, and Es
quire Klugh, of New Cumberland, writes
that he has fed 10 hens the past year at

them 2,178 eggs, an average of 144 eggs
per hen.
