railroad. Everybody knows, OF course,
that a railroad in and OF itself Is not
malicious. 1t is not impudent, and 1t
is not born in sin. A corporation can
not be immoral. 1t cannot lead double
life unless, OF course, it should happen
to be a double track road. II cannot be
born again. II cannot climb a tree. II
cannot lead life or shame.
Only the officers and employees can de
these things. So when a road really
violates law Of God or man 1t must be
done by some officer or employs.

Grant, Of this town, secured an additional
place and surprised his many friends by
making a most intelligent and effective
address on the necessity of sending Mr..
Brumm as the next Congressman from
this district, Three bands were in atten-
dance-the Citizens band, Our Band and
the VIM. Penn band - and they PLAYED
with an enthusiasm tuat was in keeping
with that OF the people who assembled to
greet the next Congressman.
The chairman of the meeting in Bender's
hall was Mr.. William II. Lewis, who
made an excellent opening address. When
Mr. Brumm stepped forward to speak he
was greeted with applause and cheers
that lasted fully two minutes. 1t was a
most enthusiastic reception. The candi-
date returned the compliment by making
one of his most effective addresses and
his remarks were frequently interrupted
| by applause and shouts of appreciation.
The meeting closed at about half past
nine, when Mr. Brumm and his Shenan-
doah escort returned here and spent the
balance of the night This morning Mr..
Brumm went to Pottsville. His next visit
here is fixed for next Monday night,
when the final guns of the campaign will
be fired.

A BRUTAL
ASSAULT
Mike SedOck Beaten and Left IN
sensible on the Street.
ATTACKED BY SEVEN MEN.
He Remained UnObServed Upon th(
Pavement in an Unconscious COndi-
tion-The Case Settled.

Justice Toomey has settled case
which when first brought to his a .tention
appeared to border on murder. The
prosecutor was Mike Sedock, and it is
remarkable that he is alive to day. His
head and body show the fiendishness with
which the classes of people that the
victim and his assailants belong attack
themselves when in their devilish humor
The case was similar in many respects to
the one of the poor Hun who was In
veigled to dirt bank near the east end
of Centre street by party of men and
covered with rocks after the assailants
thought they had beaten him to death.
Sedock was left as a supposed corpse,
but his assailants did not take the trouble
to entice him to secluded spot. They
left him insensible on the pavement near
the corner of Centre and Bridge streets
aud he laid their until he recovered his
senses. 1t was at an early morning hour
and no one seems to have noticed the
prostrate man while he lay on the pave
ment. When Sedock regained conscious
ness he struggled to his feet, took his
bearings and staggered to Justice
Toomey's office, where he told his story.
| All the men concerned in the affair had
attended beer drinking convention in
Franey's row, at the east end of Centre
street, and Sedock was the first to leave
the place to 90 to his home on Bridge
street. The seven accused men followed
and attacked Sedock when he was near
his destination. One blow from some un
known instrument knocked the victim
bleeding and unconscious to the pavement
| What was done with him after SedocB
does not know, but that his PROSTATE body
was kicked aad beaten was beyond ques
| ton The marks were sufficient evidence
Constable Glblin succeeded in gather
ing in the seven assailants and, as usual
all pleaded not guilty, but when they
gave their evidence individually there
were so many discrepancies that no doubt
was left as to their guilt. Finally this
men practically confessed and while ad
mitting the beating not one could give
an excuse or cause for the attack. They
had beaten the man, but why they die
not know. The case was settled by eact
of the accused paying $3.50 fine and costs
the victim consenting to settlement OF
that basis in preference to the trouble
and expense of attending court.

The Campaign to be Closed Here With

The Hastings Club met in the post

Rice PDper.

Most people have an idea that rice
paper, out of which cigarettes are
made, is made of rice-ninety-nine out of
every one hundred smokers share this
opinion. Rice does not enter into the
composition at all, and the name is a
misnomer. The so-called rice paper is
made from the pitch of a small tree
which is indigenous to Formosa. 1t is
found nowhere else, l believe. 1t be-
longs to the family which is repre-
sented in this country by the sarsapa-
riIla. The pith is pure white. The
stems are sent to China, where the pa
per is made. 1t is used largely by
the Chinese artists for water-color
drawings. Those illustrated Chinese
and Japanese books are made of it.
The Chinese and Japs also dye the pa
per and make artificial flowers of it.
