Subwiribe for the Press.
Whether you win wealth or not
will 'depend upon your comprehen
sion of tho great underlying prin
ciples of buMiness nnd the ndjust
ment of your aflFairs in reference
thereto. All of our readers are
desirous of obtaining his or her
tthare of the world's good things.
This can only lie done by keeping
ace with this progressive age.
One '8 own individual, efforts will
not suffice. What is needed is co
operation. You should keep posted
on all things that you may need to
buy. It is ft well established fact
that the consumer (those who buy
At retail) are paying in these United
states from one to twenty-five per
cent, more than is necessary, simply
from the fuot that they do not keep
iiotttod on current urioes. How
long could a merchant avoid failure
were he to use such lax methods in
making his purchases ? One would
quickly say such a dealer waa a
failure from the beginning, then
why do you use this method in a
mall way ? It would cost you but
the request to keep pace with the
times in the way of prices on all
staple articles you are apt to use.
All that is needid is to notify
BROWN & ARMSTRONG, general
merchants, Milford, Pa., and you
will receive a monthly price sheet.
They issue this the first of each
month. They are also pleased at
all times to furnish samples and to
fill promptly all orders received by
mail.

Get rid of pain if you can, but

MILFORD, I'IKE
A ItAII.ROAll TO II K BKORGANIZfCD.
A New Company with Plenty of Money
M ill Hare Control of Reading Rail
road. The plan of reorganization of this
road hns just liecn made public, and
as usual the smaller fish are fried
and roasted. It is a severe nnd skin
ning process for the junior security
holders, and apjiears to lie solely in
the interest of the general mortgage
bondholders. The plan contemplates
the formation of a new comiiany,
wiping out of liens now secured by
mortgage, displacement and replace
ment, of one hundred and sixty-three
million dollars of bonds nnd stocks,
tho raising of more than twenty
eight million dollnrs in cash, and
the indefinite control of the new
comiwny by voting trustees.
The general mortgage bondholders
are not called on to make any sacri
fice either of prineiial or interest,
and if the junior security holders
do not like the squeeze they can
get out and a syndicate with plenty
of money will step in their plnces.
The stockholders must put up $10
per share and give up the control of
the comimny and watch, while the
other fellows prey. Proliably the
plan will be strongly opposed by the
unior interests' and with good rea
son, for they are shown no favors,
tho fixed charges are not much re
duced while great sacrifices are
naked of them, nnd they get no
lx;nefit8 from the assets of the com
pany. If the water could be eliminated
from railroad stocks, the snlnrios of
high officials cut down, and every
thing put on a fair business ba
sis there would be less occasion
for these costly reorganizations in
the interest solely of the reorgani
zes. A gentlemnn who is a large
shipper over the D. L. & W. R. R.
recently informed us that it cost
him $30 per car from his station to
ship his goods to New York, while
the Rockfellers who shipped from
the same station did so nt the rate
of $5 per cnr.
Either the company charges him
excessive rates or they transport for
tho favored ones nt a great loss,
which must in some way be made
up. These things should be recti
fied, nnd if there is no other way it
might not be a bad idea for the gov
ernment to assume control of the
railroads, first running the stock
through a wringer, and then charg
ing all the same rates, without re
gard to the financial standing of the
shipper.
ELK IN MONROE COUNTY.
A Cirloid Arrivt From tht Watt far a Privata
Park Naar Haunt Pacane.
A carload of wild elks from the
West have arrived at Carl Tilenius'
summer resort, near Mount Pocono,
and have been liberated in the beau
tiful large place, belonging to the
well-known New York restnurat-
eur.
The elks are all fine specimens
and attracted great attention at the
depot where they were unloaded
prior to their conveyance to the Til
enius park.
The lot was due here several days
ago but were delayed by the recent
blizzard in the West. All survived
it and look neat and slock after the
long journey. Time.
IT FINALLY SUCCUMBS.
An Agricultural Society and Ta Drivinf Cluba
la Financial Difficultlci.
The Sussex County Agricultural
Society as such gave its last ex
hibition in 1892, since which time it
has been in process of liquidation.
The final settlement was made Doc.
7 when the last creditor called and
accepted the balance due him.
The Newton Driving Club was to
some extent a reorganization of the
old society, but one year sufficed to
bring that to financial grief.
The Woodlawn Driving Club
formed last season but it got into
deep water, and hopes to get its feet
on the bottom next year.
They seem to have been rather
expensive luxuries for their organi
zers and promoters.

AMD WRECK ON THE ERIE
A Fast Train Meets with Disas
ter. Fonr Cars Thrown Down a High Kmhaiik
nent A Itroken Rail the Cause Mlm
rillotts Ksrape of the l'assengers with
Slight Injuries.
A bad wreck (X'curredat Nobcxly's
station on the Erie, lx'tween Nnr
rowsburg and t'ocliwtnn, at 4.30
a. m. Monthly morning, Dec. lfi.
Train No. 10, composed of engine 22,
four bnggago cars, two day conches
and four Pullman slecix-rs, was run
ning nta rapid rate around a sharp
curve, the baggage car next to the
engine left the track. The tender
was torn lxse from the engine, and
thrown down the emlmnkment, car
rying with it the fireman. George
Fordyce. This was followed by
three baggage cars, two day coaches
nnd one Pullman.
The fireman was but slightly in
jured. The express messenger nnd
baggageman also went over with
the car they were in, and were only
slightly bruised. Ten luissengcrs in
the day coach went over with that
cnr. Some received slight bruises.
nnd one, Mr. O' Kclim, assistant
manager of a theatrical troupe, was
injured in tho back. The baggage of
the comimny, valued very highly,
also went over nnd was slightly in
jured. The cars were badly broken.
Considering the numlxir of persons
involved in the wreck, the speed of
which the train was running and the
manner in which the cars were dam
aged it seems wonderful that the
passengers escaped with such slight
injury. Travel was delayed but a
short time, and the passengers all
went to their several distillations
HE GOT ALL THE DOCUMENTS
Mr. Mutchler Not Pretty to Congressman Hart,
of Milford
The Washington correspondent of
the Philadelphia Times snys. " Ex
Congressman Mutchler has been
rather thrifty and foresighted. He
had all tho public dtxmments to
which he wns entitled up to the 1st
of December sent to his home and
his successor, Congressman Hart,
has no public documents to distribue
to his constituents. Of course, as
the months roll around now public
documents will become nvnilnble, so
thnt Congressmnn Hart may be able
to send some of them to his consti
tuents, but Congressman Mutchler
was eithor wise or cunning enough
to secure for himself every public
document to which he ns a Con
gressmnn and ex-Congressman was
entitled.

MR. VF.NNF.MA I.KAVES l'ORT JF.RTIS.
A Large Number Cresent at the Reformed
Church Snmtny Morning to ltld Hlin
Farewell.
Ilov. Amn Vennemn preached his
farewell sermon Sunday evening to
a larjre concourse of iople, com-
oh1 of the several congregations of
the Port Jervis chnrches with their
!astors,who were present on the oc
casion. The several ministers took
part in tho services which also in
cluded a fine programme of music.
The sermon by the retiring pnstor
waslwsinlon Phillipians, 1-27, He
xhorted his hearers to let their con
versation lx such as becomes Ixj
licvcrs in the gospel of Christ. The
profession of religion invites the at
tention of the world at large. The
words and acts of tho professor of re
ligion should lx! such as not to bring
reproach upon tho church or our
faith. We should not relinquish
faith because we cannot solve all its
mysteries, and explain seeming con
tradictions. Want of ability to do
this drx'S not prove that your op-
lxmont is right and yon are wrong.
Hold fast to your faith until you
have something better to take its
place. Be loyal to your church,
make it your household of faith, and
in closing, ho said, he hoped to hear
that it went well with the memlxrs
of thnt church. That the veterans of
tho faith and those who have re
cently enlisted in the service of
Christ are growing in strength,
knowledge and power and that the
homes he had helped to form would
be Christian homes, and that church
would be a bulwark of strength and
a refuge to the opiressed.
LOOK OUT FOR HER.
She is a Fraud Collecting Money for Alleged
Charitlet. Ptstora of Churohes Repudi
ate Her.
For some dnys a rather good look
ing woman, well dressed and speak
ing with somewhnt of an Irish nc
cent, hHS been collecting money
both in Stroudsburg and East
Stroudsbnrg for cliarities.
The Times of thnt place hns mnde
nn investigntion which stnmps the
womnn as a sharper of the meanest
kind, and warns its readers not to
be beguiled by her plausible, but
various stories into giving her any
money.
In some places she represents that
sho was collecting for the ladies'
aid swiety of Scranton, for the Y.
M. C. A. and also for the poor. She
seems to have obtained quite a sum
of money from kind-hearted nnd
charitably inclined people.
It would be well for every body to
refuse point blank to give money to
strangers unless they can establish
beyond peradventnre their honesty,
by proper and reliable credentials.
Do not be gulled by affecting tales,
told by some practiced villain, into
parting with your money or other
valuable. There are deserving ob-
jx-ts of charity at home, and needy
enterprises enough in your town to
absorb all your spare cliange. And
this principle holds equally good in
buying goods or merchandise of
strangers. Patronize your home
mercliants, and sustain your home
charities.
Accused of Embeizlement.
James S. Drake, an agent for a
New York life insurance company,
is in the County Jail in Scranton
cluirged with embezzlement. He
was committed last Friday night by

of P.Bali, who paid a premium of $1 25

It will pay yon to walk n round'
the town and investigate what our
merchants are offering for the Holi
days. Perhaps you can supply nil
your wants here in that direction.
Rymnn and Wells are offering nn es
pecially fine line of goods suitable
for presents, and their show window
is a pleasing and attractive sight.
They have almost every thing use
ful ns well ns ornamental.
W. & (J. Mitchell also cater to
that trade, and their store is well
filled with goods in all lines to make
yon comfortable and happy. They
can supply nil your wants in dress
goxls, groceries and staple articles
generally.
Brown & Armstrong have mnde
extra efforts to fill your long felt
wants, and if you will give them n
call you will find prices nnd com
modities are in accord, and both in
viting. T. R. .7. Klein is preimred to
furnish nil kinds of hardware, nnd
to add to your comfort whether you
want n pan mended or n house roofixl.
If you buy n stove or range of him,
yon iuhmI not cat your Christmas
turkey in the evening because the
day was not long enough to cook it.
If you feel the need of steam
heat to ward off the cold which the
goose hone man and tho planetary
conjunction chap saj-s is coining, or
if yon think your house is not pro
perly pluinlH cl, just see Van Etten
and Wright. They will attend to it
promptly and carefully.
If you must go away give John
son, at Port Jervis, a call for fxt
wear. Ho has all kinds, nnd nt bot
tom prices.
Should you want a bit of the
craythur to wash down tho turkey
dinner or make it properly digest,
Mr. Saxon can fix you up to the
Queen's taste.
Take a stroll around, nnd visit
the above places, and if you cannot
satisfy your wants, ask our mer
chants whether you are not a little
over-particular in these matters. The
nimbler sixonco will do more gotxl
to sjx-nd it here than in some other
town .
After you have made yourselves
and family comfortable and happy,
and saved a lot of money by calling
on tho live merchants who advertise
in the Press you will want something
grxxl to readt and then yon will walk
up and subscribe for tho Press, and
feel gxxl over it for tho next year.

Allentown is now having a try
ing exxrienco with diptheria. Al
most daily there is a death in that
city from that dreaded disease.
Stivnoous efforts aro lxing made by
the city officials to stamp it out.
An epidemic of colds is preva
lent. In many instances whole house
holds are almost simultaneously af
flicted. On Friday last, Samuel Lines, a
retired merchant of Wilkes-Barre,
was shot dead on a Lehigh Valley
train while returning heme from a
gunning expedition. He got on the
train at Newport station, and wxm
afterward fell over dead, with a bul
let in his head. The shot, it is
thought, was fired from outside the
train.
Owing to the profitableness of
the business new telephone com
panics are springing up and socking
a share of the profits, in almost
every town and city. This has a
tendency to force a cut in prices.and
thereby the public is benefitted.
There are somo indications of
quite lively times in Milford during
the holidays. Most, if not all, of
our young people, who are away at
school or in business will bo home,
and after the school room, and busi

the most of the vacation.

A letter to Garden and Forest,
from Beaver Dam, Wis., states that
a disease among horses in that section,-
which has lmflled the skill of
veterinarians, hns been traced to
golden rod, which the animals fed
upon in pasture. In its blossoming
stage the pollen of the weed is pro
ductive of hny fever in human lioings,
and there is good grounds for belief
that it is a noxious weed that should
come under the lan of the law.

The Erie exenrsion to New York

the Erie when people are S' liberal
treat the passengers with the con

put on an engine that can draw it.
After they have sont a day in New

A Successful Fair and Supper
The fair and supper given by tho
hulies of tho Presbyterian congrega
tion at the Snwkill House Tuesday
evening was a decided success. Ono
of the great weather prophets re
cently prognosticated that this
month would bo remarkable for
seismic phenomena and tho num
ber of babies born. The fancy table
at the fair showed evidence of tho
implicit confidence the ladies had in
the hitter prediction, and the way
the things sold would seem to mako
it certain that; it will bo verified.
The supper was excellent, every bedy
had a good time, and tho result over
fifty dollars is proof that those pre
fent were touched with a spirit of
liberality, There was considerable
surprise manifested at the fact that
several prominent and lilx'ral mem
bers of tho congregation have,
omitted this opportunity.
