Sadie Marsden, aged sixteen, and Ollie
Major, aged eighteen years, of Forty Fort,
Luzerne county, while skating in company
with Mr.. Claik, a school teacher, on the
susquehanna river, on Saturday, gided in
to an unseen opening in the ice and were

and most promising girls in the neig bor-
hood.
We are sorry to learn that our old com
rade, George Manypenny, at one time resi-
dent Of this borough, was SO unfortunate
Thur sday morning of last week as to get
his hand under the saws at the Kindlng
Wood Factory, White Haven, aud as con
sequence his right hand is minus the first
two fingers. DR.. Arndt carefully dress, d
and treated the injured hand, and Mr.. NJ.
Is getting along as well as can be expected.
We are indebted to Mr.. John W. NJ.
Lee, of Baltimore, Md, ior a copy OF the
Committees report on the Archives of that
State from 1887 to l776; it is an elaborate
report and reflects credit upon the gen tie
men who found the Committee to which
the custody of the Archives of the State had
been confled.
Last week, one day, two young gents,
of this place, met with a dlssgreeaJle acci.
dent while on their way home from rattle
which was held near TrachsYille. They
were going at pretty lively rate, when
the sleigh upset spilling its contents, gees 9
included, around promicuously; the horse
started off leaving tue former occupants of
the sleigh to get home as best they could.
After a weary walk Of three IN lies through
ice and snow they reach ed home. Next
day they hired another team and went to
find the runaway. After a search of about
five hours they found the team at farm
house. Moral-Don't rattle for geese.
For the week ending on the Goth ult.
there were 1921 tons of coal trans.
ported over the Lehigh Valley railroad,
making a total to date Of 4l3,lO4 toms, a
decrease of lI6,7O6 tons as compared with
same time last year.
Indications are that the Pennsylvania
Riilrnad will extend its Schuylkill Valley
branch IL Potlsville and connect at that
place with the Lehigh Valley Railroad,
both companies occupying the same depot,
which will be erected on Coal and Norweg-
ian streets, on the property recently pur
chased by the Pottsvile and Mahanoy
Road. This is almost directly opposite a
tract purchased by the Phladelrhis and
Reading several years ago and wherein
President Gowen promised to build a conf
modious depot.
