The county commissioners have filed

the widening is not required BY the pub
lie. At the hearing held lately it was SO
evident that owners of property along
the proposed line intended to demand
very high damages for their land taken;
that, with the construction of the new
bridge which has got to be built over the
Presumpscot, and other work now going
on, the contingent fund would be drawn
upon,too severely. + sssf

EDITOR HERALD ON the 5th of April
last, we set out for a tour to the Pacific coast
and left Watsontown at l p. M. Tuesday,
arriving at Chicago at 5:35 p. m. on Wednes-
day. Having previously arranged with what
is known as "Judson's personally conducted
excursions to the Pacific coast" one of these
trains leaving Chicago once week, we left
that city at l p m. on Thursday. We went
over the Chicago and Alton to Kansas City
and from the latter place over the Missouri
Pacific. There was no change of cars from
Chicago to Los Angeles, or San Francisco, and
we were housed in the car during the entire
trip.
The fertile rolling prairies of Kansas
delight tho eye and the number of flourish
ing towns and villages tallies with all we
have read OF heard of the remarkable state.
Topeka, the capital is laid out with liberal
eye to future beauty, of which the advance
signs are already visible. To awaken some
morning and find that we are passing through
Colorado for the first time is an experience to
be remembered. Here are all the things we
have dreamed about, the sage brush and
alkali, the long level stretches Of buffalo
grass, the solitary ranchman, the primitive
settler in his dugout, the prairie dog in his
hole, familiar to us in western song and
story. Here are the herds of innumerable
cattle that tell where fortune smiles in
Colorado and here the wonderful contri-
vanoes for irrigation that have reclaimed
desert places and show where enter prise has
settled.
Denver is the brightest, sunniest, most
fascinating city on the continent. Its situa-

How the Sunday School Observed Child
ren's Day.
Children's Day at the VIM. Penn church,
on Sunday, Rev. e. Potts pastor, was joyful
occasion to all present From TO- Is a. m. to
1915 p m. morning session was held con-
sisting of singing devotional services, an ex-
cellent review of the second quarters lessons
by the wide'awake ard energetic superinten-
dent, William H. Lewis, and uhildren's
sermon by the pastor from Chronicles 1, 34-3
The text was, Josiah, or youthful piety."
At 6 o'clock the evening session opened and
held the closest attention of the large con
gregation assembled until the conclusion of
the beautiful program at 7.45 p. m. The
church was very beautifully decorated with
bunting, flags and flowers. A ship on the
ocean, large cross, an anchor two gates and
scripture notices added greatly to the attra :
tiveness which met the gaze of the admiring
beholders.
The program was as follows: Introduce
tory address, Master Edwin Jones; Christian
Schools-address to Columbia-Miss May
Seltzer; "a Sacred Sabbath" Miss Maggie
James, pure Religion" Miss Mary Ann
Davis; Living pictures; Hail Happy Day,
Master William p Reed; Little Inquirers, "

the Fountain" Miss S. Annie Walker; "The
Power of Love-" Miss Esther Linkhurst.
Brief addresses were made by the superin-
tendent of the Sunday school and pastor.
Much praise is due to Mr.. John E. Knight,
chairman of the decorating committee, and
all lent hand. The VIM. Penn choir is SO
well known and deservedly popular that the
mere mention that it had charge of the
musical program is proof that it was well
done. Prof Evan L. Jones ranks as an
accomplished organist and his brother,
Richard, an excellent violinist. Miss Harriet
Jones and Mrs. Laura L, Knight gave entire
satisfaction in the rendition of the parts
assigned them. Is there another village in

A BOLD ACT.

Destruction of the Traction COmpany's Ma
chinery Premeditated
The armature, which was destroyed in the
schuylkill Traction Company's power house
at Girardville last week, is being replaced by
j. W. Sweeney, of Allegheny City, electrical
expert for the Westinghouse Electrical Com.
pany. The system will be in full operation
again this evening. The company is to be
congratulated upon the speedy resumption of
regular traffic.
Arthur E. Childs, an expert electrician, has
Investigated into the cause of the trouble,
and found that piece of wire had been
fastened in the armature in such manneras
to cause the damage. 1t was so arranged that
the machine would run for about ten hours
and the time was guaged very nicely, as the
machinery was started up at five o'clock in
the morning: and the accident occurred at
4:3O in the afternoon.
Somebody placed the wire in the armature
beyond doubt, as it would have been i'm.
possible for it TO get there in the way in
which it was found, 1t is further thought
that the party who placed it there expected
that it would be destroyed when the arma-
ture burned.
The company has made thorough examina-
tiOn of the circumstance with a view looking
to the guilty party, and he will undoubtedly
be located and receive just punishment. The
