Lancaster of South Ster ling, aged S7 years, one of tho pion eer manufacturers of northeastern Pennsylvania and postmaster in South Sterling for more than n half century, died Tuesday. He had been sick but a short time. Mr. Lancaster was the oldest post master in point of service In tho county. Ho hnd served In the South Sterling office continuously more than 53 years, and his resignation was recently accepted with regret by the head of the department under which he served. His record as postmaster was unprecedented, and the records of his olllce were always considered tho most complete and correct of any postolllco In the same class in the country. Mr. Lancaster was one of the most widely known manufacturers In this part of the country. Since early manhood he was associated with his father in a wood-turning factory his father founded in 1817. On the death of his father, Mr. Lancaster assumed the management of the fac tory and continued at its head until about two years ago, when he turn ed the management of tho plant over to his son, George H. Lancaster. Mr. Lancaster was the first man in this country to introduce machin ery for the turning of umbrella handles. His factory had a country-wide reputation for excellence of flagpoles, parasol handles and dow els. Sir. Lancaster was always quiet and unassuming in manner. He counted his friends by the hundreds in northeastern Pennsylvania, and In his home town was known as "tho grand old man." In politics he was a Republican and although he never Etrlved for county offices he held his share. Mr. Lancaster was born Sept. 24, 1833, in ah old homestead in Dreher township, a short distance from his South Sterling home, which he built In 1854. He was one of a family of 10 children. His father, Richard Lancaster, was born In 1792 on board a British vessel in New York harbor, and his mother, Frances Mcllvain, was born In 1-793 In the northern part of Ireland. Hugh A. Lancaster's father, Rich ard, came to Sterling from England In 181.6. H. A. Lancaster started his shovel handle factory In 1851 and a stick factory In 1857, which was burned In 1885 and rebuilt. He was appointed postmaster In 1851, and held the office nearly all the time since. He was a charter mem ber of Wallenpaupack Lodge, No. 47S, I. O. O. F.

York Slnlo Paper Wonders Why En Klnes That Separate Engineers nnil Firemen nro I'mmI. Speaking ot tue stoning of nn Erie train nt .Mnplowood nnd tho stun ning of tho engineer, who was on the floor of his cab a long time bo foro anybody knew n thing about his predicament, tho Port Jervis (N. Y.) Union says: "When a passenger train on the Erio railroad failed to stop at a station tho other night, tho llronian climbed up Into the 'cab and discov ered tho engineer on tho floor un conscious. The train had proceeded several miles probably with no hand to guide It. Tho passengers on hoard wore being carried by an engine running wild. "This is only one of many In stances thnt prove that somo legisla tion should be enacted to prevent railroad companies from using tho type of engines thnt separate tho en gineers from flremen. Engineers have been discovered dead In cabs upon several occasions ere this, and yet the heads of railroads persist in taking chances of awful disaster by tho use of tho largo locomotives that place tho firemen In such a posl 1 tion that they cannot see the en gineers. "In some states, wo understand, railroads are obliged to uso tho old stylo engine with long holler which carries the fireman and engineer In the same cab. In case of accident to either fireman or engineer, there Is always someone to guide tho train. Some time when a train with a dead engineer at the throttle runs away and a hundred passengers or so are ground up, perhaps the Pennsylvania state le&Islature will awaken-to the situation. It ought not to be neces sary to kill a lot of people or enact legislation In order to Induce the modern railroad kings to discard this dangerous typo of engine that should not be used even on freight nnd coal trains. "When companies are spending so many thousands of dollars each year In constructing and perfecting block signals and other appliances for the safety of the traveling public, It does seem strange that they should persist In using the style of locomotive that separates the fireman and engineer and leaves the passengers practically unprotected in cases like that on the Erie, which are liable to happen any day."

IF SUCH HERE HE VOUCHSAFED IX IIUXTIXC3 AME HUMOlt FINDS A PLACE IX (JAME LORE, TOO. "In Pennsylvania there aro a great many birds known as wild birds othor than game girds which are ab solutely protected, and you must not kill any one of them at any time or In any manner, for if you do and aro caught you will havo to march into some local squlro's court and settle to tho melody ot $10 and a cost accompaniment of about tho snnio measure, which amounts to a great deal more than 100 such birds are worth," says William Chadman in tho Philadelphia North American. "While tho law docs not set forth specifically tho names of tho birds so protected, I havo hunted them up for my own convenience and give thoni hero, believing they will bo of as much Interest to the public reader as the names of tho birds of Eng land. These are tho birds: "Barn swallow, barn owl, bee bird, black cap, bunting, cardinal or red bird, cat bird, cedar bird or wax wing, chat, cherry bird, chickadee, chippy, creeper, cuckoo, egret, finch, flicker, fly catcher, gnat-catcher, grosbeak, gull, hair bird, hlghholder, humming bird, Indigo bird, junca bird, king bird, linnet, martin, mead ow lark, mocking bird, night hawk, nut hatch, oriole, owls (except the great horned and barrel owl(, pewee, phocbe bird, pigeon (wild), red bird, robin, salad bird or yellow bird, sap sucker, scarlet tanager, snow bird, snow flake, sparrows of all kinds ex cept English swallow, swift thrasher, thrush, titmouse, veery, vlreo, whlp poorwlll, woodpeckers of all kinds, wren and yellow hammer. "But the protecting wing of tho law does not cover all winged things in Pennsylvania, and the following birds must get along without any protection whatever, and you may kill them at any time In the year and as fast as you can and In any antique way: "Blue jay, English sparrow, the European starling, tho kingfisher, the shrike, the eagle, buzzard, the osprey, sharp-shinned hawk, goshaw, duck, hawk, pigeon hawk, tho great horned owl, barrel owl, the crane, the heron, the bittern, the crow and the raven (not Poo's). "Nothing Is said In the law about other things that fly, such as mono planes, biplanes and the like; but I hope they may be protected absolute ly by proper amendments next term, as tho mortality among tho operators is too high already. Game Ilirds Clnssiiled. "The legislature by and with the advice and consent of the board of game commissioners, and the aid, no doubt, of experts in ornithology, has divided the game birds of the state in the following groups: "1. Anatldao do not reach for your unabridged, as part of tho word means simply ducks river and sea ducks, swans, geese and brant. "2. Pygopodes, known as loons and grebes rump footed, or having the legs inserted very far back and buried In the common Integument of the body nearly to the heel, so that these birds wouldn't amount to much in a marathon race, except to look on, as they can hardly waddle on '.,rr,e",r.r"r"Da.

Doves, reedblrds nnd blackbirds may be killed without limit from Sept, 1 to Jnntinry. "Woodcock may bo killed fi'om October 1 to December 1, upland or grass ploer from July 15 to Decem ber 1, and Wilson or jack snipe from, September 1 to May 1 next following. Nil Hungnrlan qunll shall be 111 led for two days from May 8, 1909. Limit to Kill. "Do not kill In one day more thrn 5 ruffled grouse, commonly called pheasant, or more than 20 In or.o week or 50 In one season; or of woodcock 10 In ono day, 20 In one week or 50 In ono season; of Eng lish, Chinese or Monogolinn rheaa ant, 10 In one day, 20 in one week or 50 In one season; 5 Hunta lan quail in ono day (closed for two years) ; quail, commonly called Vir ginia partridges, 10 In one day, 40 In one week and 75 In ono season; wild turkey, 1 in one day, 2 In ono Beason. Plover, jack or Wilson snipe and all shore birds except wood cock may bo killed without limit In their respective, seasons. "For violating any one of these provisions as to the hunting you draw a flno of from $10 to $25 and all the costs the Justice and con stable can figure up, and In case of killing more than the limit you got $25 and costs for each ono so killed. "You should know that all con stables in Pennsylvania aro ex-ofllcio gaioo wardens, and when a constablo is Instrumental In causing tho con viction of a person ho receives in addition to his regular fees a $10 bill from the county and half the line imposed. Thnt is why a constablo will arrest his own father if he catches the father hunting illegally" Early Xotico to Hunters. It will be recalled by hunters that last year there was a great deal of misunderstanding relative to the time when the hunting season really closed. The law reads "from Oct. 15 to Dec. 15" which should bo consid ered plain enough, but Nlmrods last year insisted on hunting on Dec, 15, thinking the law included the last day. The state game commission saw the mistake and permitted the hunting on Dec. 15. This year there Is no excuse for not knowing that the hunting season comes to an end at midnight Dec. 14. KINQ GEORGE'S MANNER. 1 "A Typical, Real 8allorman" waa Gen, Woodford's Impression of Him There was a general Impression when George V. camo to the throne that ho had none of his father's bon homie that put all men at their ease. Events have proved that this opinion has no foundation and only arose from Ignoranco of the new King's character due to the quiet and re tired life- he has led.
