4 SAD DROWNING ACCIDENT.

Warren Woodward Walker, second
son of Esquire and Mrs. M. +.
Walker, of Shickshinny was drowned in
the Susquehanna river while bathing,
last week, Wednesday.
Warren, who had been exceedingly
anxious to learn to swim, had received
the consent of his mother to accomp-
any Day, his older brother, to the
river fox bath after coming from
school. After their arrival there he at
once disrobed and waded over the sand
bar near the island, and not knowing
there was deep hole at the terminus
of the sand-bar, he went straight to
his death. AT the point where he was
drowned the water is now ten feet
deep with strong upper and lower
currents. Realizing at once his help
less condition he cried loudly to his
brother for assistance. Day at once
plunged in the water and secured
hold upon Warren. Only those who
have attempted to rescue drowning
person can fully appreciate the peril of
the young man as he attempted to
save his drowning brother. Despite
his heroic efforts he was twice drawn
under the water by the struggling boy
and this together with the eddying
stream and fright, he was compelled to
let go and swim to a falling tree along
shore, where he was picked up short
time after by a railroad man who
came to his rescue in a boat Word
was at once carried to the parents,
and before fifteen minutes had elapsed
after the drowning of Warren, the
river oank was crowded with men
women and children.
No time was lost in securing and
manning every available boat along
the river and the search for the body
was rapidly prosecuted with the aid of
graphing hooks, poles and divers.
The search continued for several
hours when at dusk the body was dis
covered by William Andres about
twenty or thirty feet below the point
where he was last seen alive. The
body was tenderly taken into the boat
and from there to the island where it
was laid upon the sod and properly
dressed. The he,r broken father,
who had been one OF the indefatigable
searchers for the body, completely
broken down at the sight Of his lifeless
hoy, and the scene, as he bendet
over his loved one, is too sacred and
holy for repetition in newspaper
The body after having been viewed
by DR.. Hughes, was at once carried
to the home Of the parents, where
Mrs. Walker was Frustrated by the
shock of the drowning
Warren was IN the fifteenth year o
his age and was beloved by ever,
man, woman and child in the com
munity who knew him. He was
bright scholar, manly, courteous anc
generous to fault. BY his consisten
life and kindly consideration Of other:
| aud the high honor and esteem il
which he held his parents and brothers
he exempliied the true spirit o
{ the Christ whom he served. War
+ rem was an ideal boy and his dealt
will be keenly felt at home, in tn
Sunday school, the Christian Endeavo
Society, the school room and hi:
! associates.

A large flag bearing the names OF
Cleveland and Stevenson was swung
to the breeze last Friday evening,
June 24th. The band gave a few
selections of music, while a large
crowd witnessed the unfurling of the
nations emblem, and cheered Justify
when they beheld the names OF the
winning candidates.
Much credit IS due Mr.. J. H.
Mercer, who agitated the movement
to have the flag raised so soon after
the nominations. Mr. Mercer IS a
loyal democrat from principle, and

The Black Bass Season.

Now is the season tor the catch of
black bass, fish for which the angler
in the Susquehanna river and its tribu-
tsries are indebted to the late Colonel
James Worrall, who, as the first fish
commissioner of the state, and as
secretary of the board of fish COM
missioners, when that body was Great
ed by law, was instrumental in in
PRODUCING IN these waters. So far Ia
this season black bass have not been
as plentiful as in past season, there
being singular disincllnation shown
by the ebony colored hsh to take
hold of any of the hundred of hooks
enticingly baiteI and thrown out to
them along the shores Of the river in
this region. The black bass is one OF
the varieties of fish which are vorac-
iousy given to feed on small fish Of
every kind, and as these are now un-
usually plentiful in the river this sea-
son it may account for the reluctance
of the bass to take the bait on hooks.
This may make bass fishing more sue
cessful later in the season, when 1t
comes in the fall. There are people
who object to eating fish which feed
on their own species, believing that
the flesh of such ''cannlbals" is not
palatable as is that of fish not given to
such habits. BE this as it may, it is
not often that fair sized black bass
when caught is cast back again into
the water because of objection to
making it serve as a meal.

THE WORLDS FAIR,


Probability That the Appropriation Will
Pass-Small Bills 10 be Worked Oh.
There appears to have come a sudden con-
viction to a number Of leading members Of the
House who oppose the worlds fair appropria-
tion that the appropriation will finally be
agreed to by the House.
The majority against the item when it came
to final vote yesterday was 30 small that it is
believed that the friends Of the proposition will
not have very great difficulty in overcoming it,
The economists of the House now think that the
most they can do is to resist long enough to
emphasize their opposition. It is probable
that the first report from the conference (Which
will not meet before tomorrow probably will be
disagreement II will then be in order for
some one in the House to move that the House
conferees be instructed to Weld to the Senate
1t may be that the world q fair folks will have
majority on this motion at first. but the proba-
bility is that there viii be more show OF resist
ance before yielding.
DEFEATING THE APPROPRIATION.
In answer to the objection that the item will
swell the aggregate Of appropriations they will
argue that the appropriation is from uncur-
rent and unavailable subsidiary coin and will
be means Of putting this coin in circulation.
Several Of the southern members feel
very uncomfortable over the prospect
Of the appropriation being made,
arguing that it will give the third party-the
alliance sub treasury people, warrant for the
statement that the democrats and the republi-
cans alike are ready to help q corporation, but
refuse to help the farmers.
THE DEFICIENCY BILL AGREEMENT.
1t is expected that an agreement in conference
on the general deficiency bill will be reached
today. This will leave the sundry civil the
only bill in dispute With the prospect of an
agreement on the worlds fair item as favorable
as it now appears all the appropriation bills
ought to be cut of the way by the end Of this
week.
WORKING OFF SMALL BILLS.
The managers Of. the House expect to dispose
of a great deal Of business under the resolution
adopted this morning providing for a call of
committees each day between now and the close
of the session for the consideration of measures
on the calendar. one hour being given to each
committee. This will take the place OF the six
suspension days near the close of the session.
The order will be subject to Interruptions by
conference reports on appropriations. but ii is
probable that great mass Of small measures
will be disposed Of.
