AcCIDENTs.-0n Saturday last, as DR.. J..
d. Helfrich and wife, accompanied by Miss
Nellie Ross, sojourning at the S~troudsburg
House, we're out enjoying a ride in the doc
tors splendid turnout, and as they were de-
cendiBg the hill near Stormsville, the breech-
ing strap broke, which SO frightened the
horse hat he started off on a full run. The
vehicle was upset, and the occupants spilled
out. The doctor, who fell under the wagon,
had the presence of mind to wind the lines
around the carriage step, which soon brought
the animal to a stand-still. We are pleased
to state that aside from a few scratches and
bruises no other injuries were sustained.
Nh. Hepburn FrankenGeld was slightly in
jured one day last week, by being dragged
from a load of hay. He was about driving
into Wm. Wallace's barn with a load. which
was too large for the door, and, his body
coming in contact with the frame above.
he was dragged off, though not seriously
injured.
Milton w. Marsh, who was moving hay
for his father, received a severe cut in his
right hand while engaged at whetting his
scythe one day last week. The wound is not
considered dangerous.

his face, directly between the left eye and

". j. p. Kingsley, of Rome, n. Y. Mr..
Wyckoff has been a sufferer for many years
with this cancer, and has attempted to have
it removed a great many times, but without
avail. He finally went to Rome, Il. Y, and
placed himself under the care of DR.. Kings

the treatment of cancers, and. after an
absence Of about two weeks, has returned

fortune in having the scourge SO successfully
removed.

Internal Revenue Taxes.

1t is possible that some of our citizens
who are engaged in business as dealers
in liquor or tobacco may uDwittingly sub
jeet themselves to fines through iguor
ance of the provisions of the Internal
Revenue laws. 1t has heretofore been
the practice, when parties were about to
commence business, for them to simply
make application to the Assessor for
special tax, and then open their doors for
the transaction of business, and await the
call of the Collector to make payment.-
This practice is forbidden under penal.
ties, and any person, firm or corporation,
who shall engage or continues to carry
on any of the occupations or business of
a liquor or tobacco dealer after the 30th
of April, 1873, without first filing an ap
plication upon blank form No. II, for
special tax, and making payment to the
Collector of Internal Revenue, and pro
curing the special tax stamps authorizing
them to exercise and carry on such bust
ness, will subject themselves to pay the
fines and penalties prescribed by law for
so doing. The special tax stamp must
be kept posted up in a conspicuous place
IN every establishment.

Decision Believed.

Judge Dreher, who was chosen to arbi-
trate the questions at issue between the
miners and operators of the Middle Coal
Fields, has rendered a decision adverse
to the workman. He says he has given
careful consideration to the statement OF
facts and the arguments presented by the
respective committees, and in his judg
ment, there should be no change in the
Basis or rate of wages at the present time.
The miners are very much dissatisfied
and it is by no means certain that they
will abide by the decision of the umpire
for any settled time. Elements ~calcula
ted to disturbed the existing order OF
things are at work throughout the coal
regions, and it seems apparent to US that
the relations between the operators aud
the miners are certain to be unsettled be
fore long. The large companies have
perfected their combination to reduce
production with a view to making more
money next winter, and it is but natural
that the men should also be found NOV
ing to secure, if possible, some benefits
from the prospective rise in the price OF
coal.
