A snow blockade.

ASHLAND, Wis, January S.-The most
terrific snow storm of the season has been
raging for the past ten hours, and as yet
shows no signs OF abatement All
trains have been blocked by the
snow. Ashland's streets were al
most impossible on account OF the
binding storm. Charles Slack who was
Dicked up in an unconscious condition from
the street, was fatally frozen. Amputa-
ton of his hands was necessary and his
feet must be also amputated in which event
physicians say be cannot live.

Senatorial race and Senator Faulkner Will
be compelled TO hustle. This is an open
field and free fight. Any good Democrat
who has the qualifications and can get the

the Legislature will be able to settle this
matter without disgraceful wrangle.
The Senators should, like members OF
Congress, be elected by the people.

TIE Legislature Of Ohio has done a
good work in passing bin to prevent
fraudulent race track entries, prescrib-
ing a penalty Of 81, 600 for iniraction Of
its provisions. This tardy recognition
Of the race track ringer" furnishes a
hint to horsemen everywhere that
should not be neglected. Immense
sums Of money are invested in racing
tracks and race horses; and large pOr-
lion OF the population derive profit or
enjoyment from the trials Of speed.
These should unQuestionably be sur
rounded BY the same safeguards which
The law throws about other forms OF
amusement and other varieties Of bust
ness enterprise. After the 'ringer"
has gone the lawmakers may find an
equally inviting field for legislation in
dealing With crooked drivers and jock

close cutting among the friends Of the diff
ferent candidates before a choice is made.
While there are dozen or more candidates
named the most prominent are Mr.. Cam
den and Mr.. Faulkner, and the choice will
probably be one of the two with the
chances in favor Of Camden. Not that the
people are dissatisfied with Senator Faux
ner's course, but they think the western
part Of the State is Of sufficient Importance
TO have a man Of their own TO look after
their interest in the United States Senate.

KILLED BY A BLOW.

On Sunday last, at Sand Run, a
small coal mine in Barclay township,
Bradford county. Wesley Mcdowell,
struck and killed Henry Haggerty.
They were both former residents of
Elkland township, and on Sunday
were in Elkland on horse TRADING
expedition, and filed up on hard
cider. They returned to Sand Run,
and in company with two other men
went to McDowell's house to supper
Mrs. Mcdowell found fault with him
for trading horses and he scolded her
about the supper, ending in her
leaving the table and going out on the
steps to cry. Haggerty advised Nc
Dowell to make his wife come in the
house. and Mcdowell accordingly
brought her in using considerable
force in doing SO. Haggerty objected
to the unnecessary force and was told
by Mcdowell that he could run his
own house. They clinched and part
ed. Haggerty took off his coat and
swore he could eat Mcdowell up, and
Mcdowell threw a milk pitcher at
him which struck him, as he ducked
his head, in the back of the neck.
They clinched again, Mcdowell struck
a smashing blow at Haggerty's face,
missing the mark and striking the
left temple. Haggerty fell to the
floor, and his brother Thomas, who
had come in, took up the fight.
They struck, choked and finally Nc
Dowell pushed his new antagonist out
doors and went out with him. The
men then started to leave when Mrs.
Mcdowell came out and told them
Haggerty was dead. He lay where he
had fallen cold and stiff. Mcdowell
at once went to Foot-of- Plane and
gave himself up to Justice Blakeslee.
The next morning he was taken to
Towanda and placed in Jail. Mellow
ell is said to be a half breed Indian
and is a man about s. years of age,
and until two months ago lived ir
Elkland township, where he had ar
interest in a saw mill with Christian
Kobbe. Haggerty was about "a year:
of age, and the two had always beer
the best of friends. --DuShOre Re

Contagious Diseases.

There are9 few cases Of sore
throat in our community, and every pre-
caution should be taken to prevent
their assuming malignant form.
AS soon'as any one knows of a case
of any contagion they should report it
to some member of the school board
so that the members of such family
may be kept away from other children.
A little precaution in this particular
will keep out of our community any
epidemic. All malignant diseases be-
gin in a mild form and asthey spread
among others the atmosphere becomes
charged with germs of disease and
may spread among all having weak
constitutions. An ordinance of the
town requires that every physician
practicing in this town shall report
the case of every contagious disease
to the council, or if they are not
in session, then report to some mem
Der of the board of health, within
twelve hours after it has come to
their notice. A similar report ought
to be made to some member of the
school board.

A HOUSE INSPECTION.

Mr.. f. M. Laubach who lives
near the confluence of the Huntington
and the Fishingcreek, just recently
moved into his new house. In order
to express his satisfaction and good
will toward the mechanics who were
employed in its erection, he invited
them to a turkey roast on last Satur.
day. OF course the parson and his
lady were also invited to participate
in the festivity. AS we had no hand
in the construction of the house, we
took the privilege Of giving it thor
ough inspection. We were pleased
with the design and work Of the house.
The mere fact that Mr.. Jacob Gel
singer, Mr.. Wilt Paterson and Mr..
Hartman were employed in the erec-
ton is sufficient evidence that the
work was we'll done. We congratu-
late Mr.. Laubach and his estimable
partner in the possession of so desir-
able residence, and we hope they
will live long to enjoy it and to extend
their accustomed hospitality to their
many friends, and particularly to the
parson and his companion. a. H.

On Monday afternoon a boy aged
about thirteen years entered the Epis
copal Church, (Which was open and
being cleaned out preparatory to
making repairs), and tore the poor
box from the wall just inside the in
ner doors at the main entrance. He
took it around behind the Parish
House and broke it open with a stone.
How much money was in it is not
known. The boy was seen breaking
the tox by Mrs, w, B. Taylor and she
called Sexton Thornton's attention tC
it. He had been seen in the church
by Will Sawyer and Paul Harman
and they went out on the street and
found the boy, and Mrs. Taylor iden
tilted him. His name is known, but
is withheld for the present.
