Tuesday morning while Robinsons'

Pittston, the ground gave way and the
team, wagon and driver went down
twelve feet into the old workings of the
Phoenix mine. It was a four horse
team and the forward pair managed to
escape by leaping forward and thus
became detached from the others.

cated until some men on their way to
work relieved him. He escaped with a
broken arm. The two rear horses were
slightly injured.

company the excursion.
Time to Double Space.
This is the season of the year when
some misguided advertisers cut down
their space because business is dull. If
advertisements are business bringers,
and they must be or merchants would
not pay for them, the dull season is a
good time to double the space, It would
be a poor locomotive engineer who
would let the steam pressure run down
on up-grades. Shrewd merchants are
seeing this, and when the people seem
reluctant to buy simply convince them
by stronger arguments.
Fatal Result of a Wound.
Mrs. S. B. Stupp died Tuesday after
noon after suffering over a year. In tho
spring of 1892 a boy playing outside the
house carelessly discharged a loaded gun,
the full charge of fine shot passing
through a window, striking Mrs. Stupp
full in the face and chest.
Although a largo number of the shot
were extracted she never fully recovered
and some months since the wounds
culminated in lung trouble. She leaves
five small children and a husband, who
is a minister.

pointed a very large audience, and when

a hearing before Squire Gorman, when it
was testified that he obtained goods
from Carter to the amount of SBO, and
had given a check for the bill to be
drawn on the Citizens' bank of Free
land.
When Carter sent the check for col

warrant. Shick was placed under SSOO
bail for his appearance at court.

while at work on Monday afternoon.
He rocoived a large cut on the left

jured about the back. The point from
which he fell is about thirty feet above
the ground and how he escaped from
being killed was regarded as miraculous.

land desire to withdraw from the flag
