Persistent efforts have been made to disperse them by the farmers who have been victims of their marpading exploits, and now they have'the éffrontery to again visit Pat ton, but if their future efforts prove as futile and devoid of success as the last made, citizens may hope to be left an- disturbed.

The COURIER cannot find language. strong enough to condemn the actions of fiends in human form who will wantonly and deliberately destroy that which is used for sacred purposes. Again on Monday night entrance was gained to the depot by the way of a back window and the money drawer broken open, but fortunately no money was found.

A FATAL RAILWAY WRECK, On the Cambria and Cresson Railroad in Which TWO LIVES WERE LOST 11 Happened Ome Mike Below Westover The Cans Unkbows, Om Tuesday, about 4 o'clock p. m. a horrible railway accident occurred on the Cresson and Cambria railroad about one mile below Westover which resulted in the loss of two human lives, that of Flagiman John Wilson and of Stanton Montgomery, the latter a young man who was riding from West- over to Five Points ‘The uniucky train was the Beech ‘Creek local, No. 78, bound for Ma- haffey, which contained first a box car, a cur loaded with bark, three loaded with heavy ent stone and a cab- in or caboose. The {rain was running along at ite asual speed around a curve when the car loaded with bark in some unknown way mmped the track on the left. breaking loose from the box car which was next to the engine. As it went over the embank- ment the other four cars, which were behind it, followed, completely. turning the whole five upside down in the ditch. The conductor, Chas Car, Flag- man Wilson, Brakeman Galbraith and Geo. Prindible, of Patton, who was on his way to Mahaffey, were in the cabin just before the accident happened, little thinking that the pext minute two men would loose their lives. As man Wilson rushed to the front door to see what the trouble was and it is supposed as he opened the door he was throun to the ground as the cabin went over, and caught beneath it! where his body was crushed. - The other three who were in the cabin escaped wihout any serious in- jury with the exception of Mr. Prindi- -ble, who renefved a severe cut .on lis right wrist by img against |OME broken glass. Stanton Montgomery, tie other {Victim of the wreck, is supposed to ' have been on the front end of ; ve been riding ; * vinoed that the latter is raore of a public the car loaded with bark as his body was found under ‘that past of the debris. . The body of John Wilson was qaiok- ly taken to his home in Clearfield. He leaves a wife and children. Mr. Mont- gomery's body was removed to his’ home at La Jose. He was unmarried. Not a particle of the cars were left on the track after the smash-ap. The track was torn up for more than a han- dred feet. The wreck train from this place and from Cresson were soon telegraphed. for snd arrived on the scene at 5:30 o'clock and by 10:30 new rails were laid and the track was made | passable. Dr. Worrell, of this place, was notified at once and arrived at the . scene on the Set train, but couid not give any assistance to the unfortunate ones, except Mr. Prindible, as they had passed beyond all human aid. The north bound passenger train was delayed about four hours at that point. . The Engine which was hauling the local was No. 7, the one on which Engiuvees N. A. Butler was killed dur- ing the wreck in Patton April 5th. A FMR AND FESTIVAL A Patten Fireman's Question Recpeetfaily Answered by the “Courier” Man. The COURIER representative was re cently asked by one of the members of the Patton Fire company some manner by which they could procure money to expend in the purchase of home, ete. The dance question was first proposed, "but after duly considering that while this was the most delightful manner of entertainment to many, others could derive no enjoyment from tripping the light fantastic, and another under the common order of fair and festival was oonsiderad to be more in harmony while the mercary stands at 90 and while little more than a repitition of many former entertainments held else- where the idea may not prove devoid of practical merit. It i= an entertainment that admits of much originality and one which is al ways liberally patronized and is seldom known to, prove otherwise than suo- It is conceded an excellent drawing card to offer prises to the young lady who is most successful in soliciting the greatest amount of money. A com- mittee of several of the most popular young ladies might be formed who pot excepted, until you start. There is were willing to enter into the friendly contest, and a neat sum would be the resuit realized by the firemen.’ Of course the pretiy girls who attend the booths and tables prove an atiraction that is also quite irresistable. Another suggestion that is exceedingly popular is that of procuring those who are ac- complished in singing or elocution to assist at the . atertainment. There are a number in Patton who have remark- . able talent in this direction and who wounld doubtiess willingly lend -asesist- ance for so worthy a cause. Hogs ve. Hicyeies. Considerable’ opomplaining is done lately about the swine, homes ete. which run at large in the borough of Patton. How guickly the ordinance against riding bicycles on the side walks was passed and put in force and from running at large, already passed, not enforced. If you stop to think which is the most injurious to your property, etc., you will quickly be con- nuisance. Almost every day you can see pigs or horses running loose over: the sidewalks and breaking into gard- ens and destroying them. In well ‘ regulated boroughs a property owner | .is not allowed to even keep hogs ina pen let alone having them running at large. The ordinance is a good one and should be enforced by all means. Accident at Summerhill. : Joseph Sharp, a farmer by occupa tion and residing near Summerhill, this county, met with an accident Wednesday of last week which will! cause him to remain from work for some time. Mr. Sharp, who is 54 years of age, was visiting his sister, Mm. Nipps, at Summerhill station. He was ‘ready to cross the Pennsylvania rail- road tracks at that point and was waiting for an east bound freight train to pass. As scon as it did so he stepped | out only to be struck by extra 1340 west bound. He was hurled to one his right arm was broken and his face was cut in many places. : A railroad employe informed the Cov- rier that over half a dogen men have lost their lives on that engine or on the train to which it was attached. strack in the Mouth. John Ardell, of Philipsburg, a young man employed in W. J. Donneily's saw mill, will remain in enforced idle- ness for several days as the result of an . accident which befell him - while par- suing his duties at the mill. On Mon- day morning about eight o'clock while Mr. Ardell was occupied at the saw a piece of siab became loosened from the log and struck him directly in the mouth with such force as to inflict an ugly gash in both the upper and lower lip and locs¢in several teeth. He at once hastened to the office of Dr. Mar- ray where it was found that several stitches would be required to sew up the wound. Received His sentenes. : The case of William McClelland vers sus the Commonwealth of FPennsylva- nia for the murder of John Danvour at “Miners Home'* at DuBois on March 21, was found guilty of voluntary man- slanghter, received his sentence on Tuesday of last week —§1 fine, costs of prosecution and four and one-half "months confinement in the county jail He was confined in jail over eight months when his sentence expires, De- ‘cember 1st. The trial cost the county a trifle over $400. : Letts’ bread and buns can’t be beat. Try it.-35t2 Mail Route Changed. The Hastings Tribune says that on Wednesday the postmaster at that place received official notification that the route from Hastings to Flinton bad been curtailed, and on and after Aug- ust 10th, the route will extend only from that place to St. Lawrence. The change is an improvement inasmuch as the postoffice at Flinton can be served equally well by mail. The change was made on the recommendation of the postmasters at Hastings and Flinton, tegether with that of Mr. George Boone, the carrier. A Gand Showing.

The following is taken from Game- land which can well be adapted those contemplating taking » fishing excursion and who are somewhat “green” at the business: : se hegannlpmapion IE If yive : have, then vou know ail shout it. 'f not, you have something to learn and some pleasure in store, and | can give you some points. People do not ai ways go fishing to catch fidi. because Lif they do, they do not. Bit they may they do all the same. It is not proper to say “catching fish,” but you should say “killing fish,” and do not call a fish pole a fish pole. It is more sports manlike to call it a rod. If you intend to muke a fishing excursion. commensse a month. in advande to overhanl vour tackle and keep it up daily, Sundays much more pléasure in this than im the real business of fishing.

A suit of corduroy with Kies bench and long stockings with bigh-isced hob nailed boots will attract the atten tion of your fellow travellers if not the fish.

'On arriving at the pond if there wre two in the party take one hioat and coe guide for both. You will have sech casts. Before going out it is well to, ' “talge something” for luck, and if the sun shines very hot, “take something’ to prevent being sunstruck. If it rab, “faite something’’ to prevent getting coll, or if the wind blows, “take some- - thing” to keep off rheumatism. If the fish do not rise, ‘take something” wo keep your spirits up, and the more you “take” the more fun you vill have. If you are lucky you will kill a few “fish, but more likely you will not, as jack in fishing comes very seldom. - If, however, you do have success, fill . your basket nearly full of grass or mons, with a stone in the bottom for weight, then put in your small fish first and place the large ones aper- most.
