The CoDowingo record is from one
to seven DRINKS daily since license
opened the food gates of rum. Two
young men who live in the neighbor-
hood of Oakwood, filed with whis-
key, entered school house at Pilot
Town. The teacher ordered them
out and one of them told the teacher
that he and the whole school couldn't
put them out. One of the pair was
a minor. One man, full Of the ardent,
fell on the road between Conowingo
and lakewood one night last week
and broke his nose, which came in
contact with rock. The next day
he thought he remembered severe
battle he had the night before with a
giant.

DENIES THE SOFT IMPEACHMENT.
the report which was circulated
that Mr.. E. Graham, of the lakewood
ranch, had not complied with the
requirements emitting the house to
a hotel license, on investigation
proved to be incorrect, Two disin-
terested witnesses examined the
premises and made the required
affidavit that they found all the legal
requirement for hotel.
Mr.. Graham assures us that his
main object in taking out license
was to sell the place, which he has
already accomplished. The property
consists of 55 acres of land improv-
ed BY the hotel and other necessary
building and stabling. The price
obtained was 50 500. He is disgust.
ed with the liquor traffic already and
would have quit in the spring if he
had not sold out. He has good
business in Conowingo, being agent
for the Postal Telegraph Co.. and
also for the Acme Oil Co.. of York,
Pa. 1t is not matter for surprise
that a man who has good business,
outside of the rum business, should
