Railroad from Creeson to -Ebeusburp.

This is the great topic of conversation
among our citizens at the present time. 1t
will be reco!lected that, more than year
ago. this project was agitated, and sufficient
amount of stock subscribed by our citizens to
construct the road. Nothing was wanting
but the consent of the Penna. r. r. Co. to
receive the stock subscribed ss stock of the
Company: The right Of way was also
granted by all owners of real estate between
this place and Cresson, through whose lands
the proposed roads would pass. Unfortu-
nately, at the very time when the negotiations
between our citizens and the Company were
progressing favorably, the memorable fnan-
cial crisis of 1857 occurred, and nothing
more was heard of the branch railroad But
now that times are growing better and money
beginning to circulate freely, the project has
again been revived, and our citizens seem
determined that it shall be put through We
learn from reliable authority, that the Indi-
ana Branch Road pays and we are conf
dent that the Ebelsburg branch. if con-
structed, would pay much better. We will
have something more to say on this subject

WASHINGTON, Dec. Is A dificulty oc-
Cured this morning between Congressmen
English, of Indiana, and Montgomery, of
Pennsylvania, on Pennsylvania Avenue.
The two members Of Congress happened to
meet for the first time this season, when Mr..
English. extending his hand, said
"How are you, Mr.. Montgomery"
Mr. Montgomery withheld his hand, and
utt ered an insulting expression. something
like
Il don't speak to puppies"
Whereupon Mr., English struck him severe
blow over the head, breaking his cane to
pieces by the blow, knocking Mr.. Montgom-
cry into the gutter, but not entirely down,
Montgomery, on rising, hurled brick at
English. striking him on the boot. bu. doing
him no in jury.
Mr. English states to his friends that he
was entirely unarmed, aud was not aware
that Montgomery had any i'll feeling towards
him up to the time Of the rencontre,
Mr.. Montgomery. as to strength and bise.
is superior to Mr.. English.

MGR and fruitgrower. It is the oldest agri
cultural per in the State, having been pub

the splendid hospitalities of Compeigne, ap-

They assured US that, after careful ca!cu-
latiou, they wonld lie required to spend the
sum of one hundred and fifty dollars on each
individual, in complying with the agreement,
and they would have nothing left to remu-
nerate them for their care, trouble and re-
sponsibil,y. At all events, could make
no better arrangement. and there was no
other alternative. During the period when.
government itself, through its own agents,
undertook the task of providing for captured
negroes in Africa, the cost per head was
very much greater.
There having been no outstanding appro-
priation applicable to the purpose. [ could
no. advance any money on the agreement L
therefore recommend that an appropriation
| may be made of the amount necessary to
carry it into effect.
| Other captures Of similar character may,
and probably will be made by our naval

! gross may amend the section of the act Of
| March Sd, 1919, SO as to free its construc-
ton from the ambiguity which has So long
existed, and render the duty Of the President
plain in executing its provisions.

! l cannot conclude without performing the
agreeable duty of expressing my qualification
that Congress so kindly responded to the
recommendation of my annual message, by
affording me sufficient time before the
close of their late session for the exami-
nation of all the bills presented to me fol
approval. This change in the practice Of
Congress has proved to be wholesome re-
| form. It exerted q beneficial influence OF
the transaction of Legislative business, and
elected the general appreciation of the
country.
It enabled Congress to adjourn with tina

of doubtful constitutionality ard expediency
