Snake stories can stand aside now
Owners of South Fork Dam Held Re.
spOnsible.

The board of inquiry, which has
just completed registration of all
property losses in the Conemaugh
valley, makes it's report to Chairman
Cummins, representing Governor
Beavers relief commission. The
board divided the sufferers into six
classes, the first class being the most
needy-generally woman who had
lost her husband or son, and was
left with large family to supper,
with scarcely any property saved
In this class they have placed ZOE
cases, to which they recommend the
payment of $1,000 each. Glasses
from two to five are not so destitute
but still in great distress. To these
they recommend payments from
5000 down to 5000 The recommends
tions of the committee provide fol
the immediate disbursement of ST.,
lS6, 200 to 1850 different families, OF
an average of 1922 to each family
These $3.50 cases include all those
who are in immediate want. Glass
q includes the heaviest losers, but
they are not in immediate want, and
no recommendation was made in
their cases, but they will be con
sidered further along. A coroner's
jury Saturday found that the owners
of the dam were culpable in not ma

that the owners are responsible foi

That Cantankerous Old Woman.

Described in the nursery ballad, who
Lived upon nothing bnt vituals and
drink" and yet would never be
quiet" was undoubtedly troubled
with chronic indigestion. Her vic.
tuals, like those of many other elder
~ persons whose digestive powers
have become impaired, didn't agree
with her. This was before the era
of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, OF
some one of her numerous friends
and relatives would undoubtedly
have persuaded her to try the great
specific for dyspepsia, constipation
and billiousness. This would have
been measure of self-protection on
their part, for she would soon have
been cured and ceased to disturb
them with her clamor. The most
obstinate cases of indigestion, with
its attendant heartburn, fatulence,
constant uneasiness of the stomach
and of the nerves, are completely
overcome by this sovereign remedy.
Chills and fever and bilious remit
tent, rheumatism and kidney trou-
hles are also relieved by it.

Convicted By A Clock.

A lady from tthica, the birthplace
OF ex-Gov. Cornell and his wife, told
me the other day good story apro-
pos Of the perils of welded life,
which the Governor told at his own
expense. 1t seems that when in
office at Albany he would sometimes
return home late at night after his
wife had retired, and when she asked
him what time it was would answer,
about twelve or "a little after mid
night. One evening instead of max
ing the inquiry, she said: "Alonzo,
! wish you would stop that clock; l
cannot sleep for its noise" All un-
suspicious, he stopped the pendu-
lum. In the morning while dressing
Mrs. Cornell inquired artlessly: Oh,
by the way, what time did you get
homer About midnight replied
the Governef. "Alonzo, look at that
clockw The hands of the clock poin-
ted to half past 2. The Governor
was crushed.
