by Grandfather Kemerer, who will reach
the four-score and three mile post in the

The 1. o. G.. T., of town, held an inter-
esting gospel temperance meeting in the
NJ. E. charch at Packerton on Sunday eve
ming. The large auditorium was well
packed when the exercises opened by S. S.
Hagaman delivering short, but eloquent
address; Miss Maud Wheatley recited with
great success temperance poem; Jackson
Evertt and G. S. Weiss talked for few
minutes. The colsing remarks were made
by John Stark and were full of christian
thought and advice. His remarks were
interesting and appreciated, and will no
doubt do much good, because they were
the fruits of personal experience in this
world where "sin besets on every hand and
danger Turks everywhere"

The growth of the Young Mems Chris
tian Association since the election of a
Board of Directors is quite remarkable,
and the enthusiasm among told and youngl
was never more lively than at the present
time. Prof. Stetler Informed one of the
members last week that "thirteen of the
seventeen male members of the High
school, including himself, are members of
the Association" and it is likely that the
four young men not members will join
shortly.
The song and prayer service on Sabbath
afternoon was very successfully lead by
Charles A.Hauk. Messrs Philip Miller and
NJ. o. Bryan, members of the Board Of
Directors were present and addressed the
meeting. On Friday evening Bible Read
ing on the word Eternity" viii be con
Quoted by one of the Young Men, and all
who attend are urged to bring their Bibles

DR.. w. G. NJ. Seiple, native of this
country, but for dozen or more years To-
Gated at Lehighton for the practice of his
profession, and in which he has been emil
nently successful, recently returned from a
trip through the sunny South, made more
in the hope of being able to build up his
shattered health than for pleasure and sight
seeing. He broke down in December from
overwork, and knowing that spell of rest
under the more favorable influences of a
southern climate would serve him quickest
in the matter of recuperation, he started off
and remained absent until few weeks ago.
He returned very much. improved, having
recovered considerable of his old time vigor,

tion are more than pleased to have him
back again in a condition fitting him for car
rying on his large practiee.-From the Al

An Entort Mad to Re-organIze.

As per notice in our columns last week,
an effort was made on Wednesday evening
TO re-organlze the Presbyterian congrega-
ton of town. The meeting was called TO
order and the feasibility of reorganization
discussed at great length when, on motion,
it was unanimously resolved that Rev.
Charles J. Allen, of Easton College be in
vited to fill the pulpit for the congregation
on some Sunday in the near future.
The large frame edifce on Northampton
street built by this congregation dacade
ago is rapidly going to decay for want of
proper attention. The interior of the
building is well preserved and the main
auditorium is we'll furnished and contains a
pipe organ, while the Sunday school room
has all necessary appurterances.

There was large congregation in Trim

was the eleventh anniversary of the Ladies
Mite Society in that congregation. The
pastor, Rev. j. H. Kuder, delivered an ap-
propriate discourse, basing it on Acts tx,
36-42.
During these eleven years the Society has
collected in a quiet way 81, ,272 10. A num-
Der of things in the church editiee, both in

OF all the days in the three hun dred and
sixty-fve comprising the calendar year, none
are so welcome or bring to mind more
pleasant memories of the past than does

cal Lutheran church, this borough. Rev.

hundred feet south Of the station. Before
the disaster his engine was used in running
coal trains only. His testimony that Cook
had been using steam In going into the
depot was in corroboratiou of Fireman
Murphy and Lookout Mulhearn's s evidence
" ilson Marsdale, who was the helping
engineer on No. @. swore that he air brakes
of the train would not work TO satisfaction
when they started from the Delaware and
Lackawonna Junction on the morning
OF DC ober 10.
James Engle swore to the defective ma
ture of the brakes and testified TO Majors
good reputation.
James McGintv, recorder of deeds of
Luzerne County, was called for the pur-
pose Of showing that section No. could be
seen from Majors train. He saw the
wrecked train ahead of him as they advanced
toward the station without putting his head
out of the window. He saw the lights dis
tinctly and called the attention of others
to it. A short time afterwards the crash
came, with its fearful results.
o. o. Esser, general dispatcher, was called
and testified that on October 4 he had
conversation with Major and told him that
he would in all likelihood be called upon to
run train on October 10 and asked him
as to his engine in general. Major made
no complaint about ANYTHING excepting that
he had no gong in bis cab. He said moth
ing of the effectiveness Of the machinery
or appurterances. On the morning Of
October 10 the cars attached to Majors
train that would not workwhen the airbrake
was applied were taken off and no complaint
was made after that by any of their en-
ployes
The closing arguments of the counsel
were eloquent and were listened to by an
anxious throng of people who packed the
little courtroom to its fullest capacity.
General Mccartney made a strong plea for
the defendant. Hon. Allen Craig, for the
Commonwealth made the closing address.
The jury retired at six o'clock.
On Thursday afternoon the jury, after
about four hours delberation, returned a
verdict of Not Guilty.

How RcpuIsive

Is bad breath, and yet how many other.
wise attractive, polite and particular PEG
pie afflict their friends with the foul odor
of their breath. If there was no remedy
for this, it might excite our sympathy,
but as there is no need Of having foul
breath, it is an nnpardonable breach of
good manners to obtrude such an offence
on good society.
Foul breath arises from disordered d.
gestion which can be corrected by using
Sulphur Btters, and the result will be u
pure, sweet breath.
