Teachers Institute.

Will be held in Logan, Aug. 20-31.
The work will be conducted by Profs.
Rayman, Filing and Bright.
Every teacher in the county should
attend this netting the full two weeks.
The lookout is promising for success
in every sense. Teachers should
make this the most profitable meeting
ever held in the county. Of course,
none of Hooking County's Teachers
will do like some teachers in other
counties, attend the last one or two
days, spend the rest ofthe time in
kicking and say "It was just as I ex-
pected, no account"
The success of any institute depends
upon the teachers as we'll as upon the
instructors. The best and most pro-
gressive teachers attend the Institute
regularly. Donot complain that your
wages are small and you cannot afford
to attend: but come and you may
learn how to have your wages increas-
ed.

AN ENGINEER CRUSHED.
His Death, as well as a Small
Wreck Caused by his own
CarelesSnesS.

A sad mishap occurred on the River
Division of the c. H. V. & T. Ry. by
which H G Baldwin, of Nestville Pa.
lost his life.
The story briefly is, that Baldwin,
(who by the way is one ofthe few new
men who had come to the blocking"
during the recent strike.) was going
south with the local freight.
AT point between Macarthur and
Creola there is quite heavy grade,
and Conductor Sweenie, fearing that
the siding at Creola could not be made
before the uppassenger was due, order
Led Baldwin to go ahead with his loco
motive and leave fagman for the
passenger train, and then to return,
carefully to his own trai n which, in the
mean time would be permitted to
drift.
The aagman was dropped as per or
der, but instead of running carefully,
he came at rapid speed and when his
train was sighted he was too close to
prevent a collision.
The fireman hallooed to Baldwin to
jump and at the same time jumped
hi mself.
A moment after terrific collision
occurred which broke a coal car to
bits and completely demolished the
tender. Baldwin was caught between
the car and front end of the tender
and had both legs mashed from the
hips downward, and other injuries to
the chest and spine.
The accident occurred between 7
and 8 a m DR. Campbell was wired for
andat once repaired tolthe scene, but
finding the man dying no amputations
were attempted.
Baldwin died at about two o'clock.
The deceased was single man,
and leaves no near relatives.

her art to detain her husband until
she received an agreed signal from her
s on.
The party arrived about 7.3O 2. NJ.
and the signal brought the brother in
to the midst of the largest assembags
which had ever gathered at his
spacious residence, and one which at
once rendered him speechless with sur
prise and pleasure.
The evening was spent in social in
tercourse, music and recitations.
The company were RECALLED by
generous service of ice cream and

The principal event of the evening
was the pretensation of a pair of fine
rocking chairs to Mr. and Mrs Zellers

Brother A. H. Wilson.
The festivities were continued until
/ late hour; when the company, after
many kind wishes extended to their

OBITUARY.
Hester Ann Young.

Hester Ann Young was born Dec.
8, 1919 and died July 81, 1894, at
her home near Logan, aged "A year
6 months and % days.
She joined the NJ. E. Church in
Logan, on Christmas day 1887 Over
sixty years she has served the Master
in his church militant.
She was married to James Brown
July 2, 1852, and was left widow
by his death in Sept. 1856.
Aunt Hester was descended from
the strong Methodist pioneer stock,
that planted Methodism so firmly in
our state. She had their rugged faith
in God and their zeal for the advance
ment of his kingdom. She was we'll
read in the history of her loved faith
and grounded in the experience Of it.
Her sickness was brief, her suffer-
ings were intense. In her sickness
she expressed her assurance that, Cali
is WELL" We are comforted by the
strength of her dying testimony, but
better than any words that could be
spoken in testimony are the fruits of
a persistent, patient, faithful Christian
life. She leaves behind a loved
brother and sister who deeply mourn
her loss, but realize that separation
cannot be long. Hosts of relatives
and friends will sadly miss her from
her accustomed place.
Funeral services were held at
residence and interment was in the
family cemetery.

Isaac l.. Edwards, of Hooking
county, has for weeks been the only
inmate of the Penitentiary anex and
the date of his execution has been
made indefinite by the courts. He
takes daily walks through the prison
yard accompanied by Guard Bow
man, until they are generally desig-
mated as 'sthe old hen and her one
chicken" Edwards is a quiet and
we'll behaved prisoner, and at least
so far as outward appearances go, Is
contented with his lot. Edwards
was anxious to know the fate of
his former fellow prisoner, and when
informed that Jones had been con-
victed for the fourth time and was
certain to he returned to the annex,
made no direct reply. With a pc
culiar smile around bis mouth he re-
marked to Or. Ireton, "now you

Jones is afflicted with asthma and

The jury took 81 ballots, the first
standing five for murder in the
first degree, four for second,
and three for manslaughter. After
the verdict was rendered the defense
Immediately filed motion for a
new trial, aliedging that Robert
Walker, juror in the case, had ex-
pressed to Numerous persons his be-
lief that Jones was guilty and ought
to hang. 1t WAS also reported on
the streets of Georgetown that
Jacob Legondoller, a jackson town
ship, juror did not agree to the YER
dict, and that he will 30 state to the
court on Tuesday next, when it is
expected that the sentence will be
passed.
A Georgetown telegram says that
the general impression prevails
among the attorneys that another
trial will not be granted by the court
notwithstanding the few claimed ir-
regularities. Jones informed the
newspaper representatives that he
anticipated the verdict, because GER
tain jurors from the first exhibited
a feeling against him. Jones and
his attorney apprehended no trouble
in securing a new trial. The case
was holly contested on both sides
and the arguments for and against
the defendant were listened to by
