S. 7. Frain, proprietor Of the Key
stone Hotel, Selinsgrove, will take
charge of the Crawford House, Will
iamsport on April lst. Mr.. Frain
leaves many friends in this county
and we are heartily sorry he is going
to leave. He is born landlord
and kept up rs expensive n table as
could be found outside of metropoli-
tan hotels.
A correspondent wants to know
what we meant in speaking of the
County Commissioners i'll the SEN
tence "They were elected for what
they are and not what they should
be" We meant to say that they
were elected rs honest old farmers
and not as experienced mechanics
or civil engineers, and that if mis-
takes were made, as is alleged,
they were mistakes of the head and
not of the heart.
Coal oil lamps are dangerous, and
make no mistake about it. The be
lief il now that Secretary Tracy s
house was set on fire by the explo-
sion of an oil lamp left burning in
the library. Do not leave an oil
lamp alone. If you leave the room
put out the lamp, and don't take
any risk in the oil dealers assertion
that n particular kind of oil will not
explode. It is nonsense. Oil ofany
sort will generate gas, and gas of
any sort will explode.
The clergymen of the state will be
pleased to learn that the Pennsylva-
mia railroad company has restored
the rule, abrogated some years ago,
under which they were enabled to
travel ut reduced rates of fare. Cleri-
cal orders will now be issued to
clergymen not engaged in other oc-
equations bearing compensation,
who are regular pastors of churches
located on the line of the road, on
application to the ticket agent re
siding nearest to their residence.
The certificate will cover the entire
year, and will entitle the holder to
tickets at the rate of two cents a
mile for the distance Travelled. Min
l;stare do n Good deal of travelling.
