A BLOOMSBURY BOY KILLED IN A
COLLISION.

Bruce Brown, son Of our townsman
Ezra Brown who lives on Fourth
Street, was killed in a wreck Tuesday
of last week, al about five o'clock in
the morning near Batesville, Indiana.
He had spent about three years in
Iowa, and other places in the west,
had visited the Worlds Fair and was
on his way home. He sent in advance
a saddle and other articles, with a no
tice that he was on his way home.
He became acquainted with young
man at Chicago, and this friend jump
ed on the train with him, just rs they
were leaving the station at Chicago.
All went pleasantly until the crash
came. The collision was made with
the Worlds Fair Big -Four Express,
No. IL, consisting of ten Wagner
sleeperS and day coaches, filled with
Cincinnati people, returning from the
Worlds Fair and freight train which
left Cincinnati Monday night for In
dianopolis. \ number of people were
injured in the wreck, nine being pinn-
ed under the cars, and were cut out,
but the only life lost was that of young
Brown. His head was crushed, and
he was disemboweled, instant death
following. His friend escaped, who
recognized him, and gave his name
and residence. a coroner's inquest
was held and the body inferred in the
ss-Roads Cemetery at Batesville,
Indiana, TUESDAY evening. Post
Master Cathcart received message
from the coroner reading as follows ::
''Bruce Brown was killed on Tuesday
in the wreck Of the Big Four" From
this message it was learaed that he
was son of our townsman. Later
the father received intelligence from
the acquaintance his son had found
at Chicago, who gave full particulars
of the accident. The body has not
yet been brought home. He was IS
years and 8 days of age.

CYCLONE AT WALLER.
On Thursday afternoon the vail

On Thursday afternoon the valley
north of Waller was .....cd by one
of the most destructive cyclones ever
known in that region. The people
there always thought the bills would
prevent such storms doing any damage
but Thursdays storm proves that
these everlasting hills do not entirely
protect us either.
Thursday was a pretty warm day
and towards evening when the clouds
and rolling thunder indicated rain the
farmers were glad, for the crops have
suffered much on account of the dry
weather. AS the storm came on Mr..
]. p. Yorks sat on his porch when
looking towards Mr.. Russeps, he saw
the cyclone begin its work. The
cloud was funnel shaped and at the
top was black as night. 1t first took
few trees and then Mr.. Russers
house and barn, breaking all their
dishes, taking part of the house away,
and took the barn clear to the ground
breaking it to kindling wood and carry
ing some of it a half mile or more
away. Three bows were in the bain
but IN some way they escaped,
but they can't tell how. One of his
horses was killed.
Mrs. Sitler's house was the next one
in its way which it moved several feet,
broke out all the windows, took part
of the roof and most Of their clothes,
some of which cannot be found. There
were three or persons in the house
and 1t threw them all in one corner,
but did not injure anyone seriously.
The most damage was done at Mrs.
Sarah Hirleman's, where it took out
nearly every tree on the place inclui-
ing nice large orchard, completely
demolishing two large sheds, breaking
buggies and wagons, tore the roof
from the barn besides damaging it a
great deal other ways. The house
Jared better as it escaped with a win
dow and the chimneys gone and a
large shade tree on the roof which
probably saved it from worse destruc-
ton. Mrs. Hirleman, an aged lady,
was alone at the time and has seen
much of this rough world but was
never afraid during a storm. When
she saw the sheds and barn 90 and
heard the house crack, she was really
frightened. Her son who lives near,
hurried to the house and Gained her
fear for the rest Of them, but it was
such a severe shock on her nerves
that she almost tainted away. No
one received any serious injuries, how
ever, but the loss of property will
reach up in the thousands. The path
of this storm was narrow and it scarce
ly went halt mile before it raised.
The work of repairing is going on
as rapidly as possible, but the fruit
trees are irreparable and SO far several
articles that were carried away have
not been found. Mrs. Sitter and
family moved to her son-in-law's Mr..
Asa Hess, and Mr.. Russell moved in
Mr.. T. J. Hess barn
The storm moved in an easterly di-
rection and is reported to have done
much damage about Red Rock and
towards Wilkesbarre.

THE SUNDAY MOVEMENT.

Rev. Mr.. Dony of Scranton was
in town on Wednesday He is the
gentleman through whose efforts the
Sabbath Protection Committee was
organized, and he says there was a
misconception of the methods under
which these committees work. 1t is
not the intention to compel an obser-
vance of the Sunday laws by recourse
to the courts, but in kindly manner
to educate the people to a proper OBJ
servance of these laws. In all the
time that he has been engaged in the
work, there have been no arrests.
The strong opposition that was shown
against the effort to suppress the sale
OF Sunday papers was aroused by the
understanding that the sales would
be stopped by an arrest, if it could
not be done otherwise, and the result
was that more papers were sold on
the last two Sundays than ever be-
fore. The efforts of any organization to
enforce Sunday laws are certainly COM
mendable, and will receive the hearty
support of the local papers, as we'll
as the approval Of every good citizen,
but their efforts should be directed
against evils that are bad in them
selves, or that pollute the morals Of
the community rather than against
those things which, while they may
be prohibited by ancient laws, still
are utterly harmless in themselves.

ACTION ON THE DEATH OF L. X.
DRINKER.

At a meeting Of the Vestry OF St.
Paul's church, Bloomsbury, Pa, held
at the Rectory on September nth,
1909, the following action was taken :
Whereas, it has pleased Almighty
God In His wise providence, to re-
move from his earthly labors, Mr.. +.
K. Drinker, for over thirty years a
Vestryman and during most of the
time the Senior Warden of this parish,
therefore,
Resot0ed: That the Rector and
Vestry desire to place upon record
their sense Of the great loss which the
parish has sustained in the death Of
Mr.. Drinker, and their regard for his
memory.
He was ever ready to give and to
do for the welfare OF ST. Paul's church.
Year after year he has been earnest
and unremitting in the work of the
Sunday School, as Lay Superintcnd-
ent, Teacher and Treasurer. During
a series Of many years he has been a
Deputy to the Diocesan Convention
and always manifested a great interest
in the affairs of the Diocese.
He was a man of marked mission
AIRY spirit and constant contributor
to the Missions and Charities or the
church in Central Pa. and elsewhere.
In this he has left an example worthy
of imitation. He has gone to his re-
ward. His memory will be blessed.
Resolced That we solemnly recog-
nize the fact that death has removed
within the last six months both of the
Wardens of this parish, reminding us
who remain that we must work while
the day lasts, for surely the night COM
eth when no man can work.
Resolved: That this action be en-
tered on the Minutes Of the Vestry
and that copy thereof be sent to the
family of our deceased friend.

THE FREE RIVER BRIDGE,

The subject of the free river bridge
is being agitated as the time ap.
proaches for September court. The
situation is about as follows The
Grand jury having recommended the
building of free bridge across the
river at or near Bloomsbury, the stock
holders or those interested in the
Catawissa bridge filed exceptions to
the report and then later made a ten
der to sell their bridge to the county,
to be used as free bridge. A com
mittee consisting of A. K. Smith,
Madison A. w. Snyder, Miflin; II.
Fl. Hume, Benton J, w. Hoffman,
Scott ; James Sponenberg, Berwick
and A. w. Hippensteel, Centre, were
appointed to appraise the property
and fix value to be referred to the
Grand Jury for action. These view
ers met at Catawissa, Saturday OF
last week and fixed a value of $34,-
900. What action will be taken in
reference to the purchase of the Cata
wlssa bridge remains to be seen when
the Grand Jury meets in two weeks.
The case Of the bridge across the
river at Bloomsbury will probably be
argued before Judge Savidge, who
has acted in the case on previous
occasions.
