Again in 181)3, the Clearfield Division,
extending eastwa from DuBols to
Clearfield, ft dii.tnce of 20 nii.es, was
built, connecting at Clearfield with the
Beech Creek Ktiilroud und making a
direct outlet from the coal fields to the
seaboard and the great cities of the
east. Once mora Impelled by the In
creasing demands arising from tho
rapid development of its vast resources,
the further extension of tho tine from
PunxHUlawney south and west to But
ler, a distance of l& miles, was decided
upon, although on account of the great
physical difficulties presented by tho
territory which the new lino would tra
verse, this construction could only bo
muvlo at great cost, as It Involved the
construction of two tunnels, one of them
2,. 100 feet nearly half a milo In length
and many bridges and viaducts, tho
bridge over the Allegheny River being
more than 1,(H) feet in length. This
extension was pushed through, how
ever, In spite of dlfliculttes and com
pleted In tho summer of 18!)!). It hag
boon tho crowning achievement tn tho
growth ot the road, for tit Butler traffic
arrangements have been formed with
tho Pittsburg and Western Ry. whore
hy the tracks of that company aro used
to Plttoburg, (Allegheny) und to New
Castle, making possible tho establish
ment of through train service between
Buffulo and Rochester In tho north, to
Pittsburg and New Castlo la the south,
and making un equally Important line
east and west between New Castle, Pu.,
and Clearfield, which latter route In
combination with its direct connections
forms a short line between Chicago and
Philadelphia and New York.
Incidental to its growth as outlined
above, tnuny smaller brunches have been
built, extending from tho uiuln line
into various eoul fields, until to-day the
road bus nearly 475 miles of track,
which Is thoroughly well ballustcd,
much of it with rock ballast, and is laid
with heavy steel ruils throughout, but

A Pugilistic Pastime.
What Is there in our national pastime
of huso hull that tends so to urouse tho
latent pugnacious. Instinct lying deep
within the soul of every man and trans
form him for the tlmo Into a howling,
fighting demon? There must bo gome
mysterious influence n yet little under
stood that, Impels the peaceful, luw
uhldlng tnx-payer und citizen to rise up
In the grand stand and shriek. ''Kill
Mm, kill him," when the umpire ren
ders decisions not, according to popular
approval. The man who, half choked
with anger, hurls insulting epithets at
the members of tho out-of-town team
will sit In the front pew In church on
Sunday and listen to the sermon, his
placid countenance Illumined by a smile
of seraphic sanctity. But nut 111 in tn
the grand stand nnd Intone of the homo
players muff an easy ono at third, nnd
Dr. Jekyll immediately becomes Mr.
Hyde, and his language Imparts a dis
tinct oder of brimstone to the surround
ing atmosphere.
It might bo supposed that ball nines
composed of church members exclusive
ly would be able to gel along without
quarrelling, but it appears not. From
Huntingdon, Conn., comes the story of
a ball game between members of the
Congregational church of that town
which ended In rr free fight and a call
for the police. It was a decision of the
umpire, of course, that made the trouble.
Tho superintendent of tho Sunday
fchool, who was playing right field,
questioned the decision, which was up
held by the leader of tho choir and
three deacons on the side lines. There
upon the superintendent smote the
musician, and with tho mixing In of tho
deucons, the assistant superintendent,
who naturally went to tho assistance of
the superintendent, several members In
good standing and tho sexton, the fight
was fairly on. The beloved pastor,
who endeavored to separate the com
batants, was put out in the first round.
The sinners In the grandstand provided
vociferous applause. But the police,
who are always nosing around to spoil
somebody's fun, appeared and all hands
were hauled to the station house. Why
does bao hall urouse our sleeping sav
agery? Let tho mighty minds of our
nation grapple with this question. Kv

bull games waste enough pugnueity to

Story of a Slave.
To be bound hand and foot for years

form ot slavery. George G. Williams,
of Manchester, Mich., says: "My wlfo

she could not turn over in bed alone.
After using two bottles of Electric Bit
tors she Is wonderfully Improved and
able to do her own work." This su

quickly cures nervousness, sleeplessness,
