T0LL-GATE KEEPER ROBBED.
RELIEVED OF CASH AND JEwELRY BY
THREE MASKED MEN.

Three masked burglars robbed the
toll house at the Susquehanna River
bridge at Tunkhannock, at I o'clock
Saturday morning The toll gate is
kept by Sarah Whipple, a maiden
woman, who, with a female compan.
ion, were the only occupants of the
house. The men battered down the
door, and while one of them intimi-
dated the women with revolver, the
others ransacked the house from top
to bottom, securing about 500 in cash,
a gold watch and a chain and other
articles.
Fifteen robberies have occurred in
the northern tier of counties recently,
and this one was probably done by
the gang operating in other places.
The work was that of professionals.

IT'S An III Wind That Does Not Blow
Some One Good

is an old saying but good one, at
least in this case. May of this year
has been an exceptionally cool month
taken as whole, and summer goods
have not thus far sold as rapidly as
they should. Such is the case with
clothing. Cool weather has left mer-
chants with big stocks and as we wish
to keep our goods moving constantly
regardless of tine weather have decided
to make reductions such as will keep
our incoming goods moving out
These are the reasons why we have
decided to make reductions right III
the very heart of the season. Wei
not quote prices as you could moi
form any idea of the positive reduc
tions we are making from them, bu
a visit to our store will soon convince
you that it is to your benefit to bu,
now and right here.

Arrangements have been made to
hold an election in the town for the
purpose of voting on the question OF
increasing the bonded Indebtedness.
The adoption Of this measure is the
only practicable thing to do. The
debts of the town must be paid, and
as we suggested some time ago, there
are but two ways to raise the money,
one by increased taxation, and the
other by increasing the bonded in.
debtedness. Increased taxation would
be very undesirable now, and even al
twenty mill rate enough money
could not be realized to meet the
immediate necessities of the town
If the bond increase should not be
voted for, the town will be sued on
outstanding orders and other floating
debts, and the end of this would be
the levying of special tax by order
of the court to pay the debts, which
would be an increase of taxation, witt
large amount of costs added to-
litigation. Now is the time to discuss
these questions, and we have no doub
that every taxpayer who comprehend
the situation will vote in favor of thi
proposition. A public meeting ii
the Town Hall or Opera House shoul'
be held some evening previous to th'
election for the purpose of explaining
the matter to all citizens who wan
| further information.

Horse Power of a Bicycle Rider,

An experiment which may be per-
formed by any one riding bicycle is
the determination of the horse power
of the rider, by simple calculation
after the ascent of hill. The me.
chanical equivalent of horse power,
being $4,000 pounds raised through a
distance of one foot in one minute,
may be directly applied to a machine
and its rider. The only requirements
besides a man and wheel are a stop
watch and steep, smooth hill of
known altitude. The hill should be
steep enough to prevent one from as.
cending with any great velocity, and
thus have the wind resistance vitiate
the result. The weight in pounds of
machine and rider being almost al
ways known and the time readily
taken, the altitude of TIE hill can be
found by level and staff. 1t will be
seen that the length of the hill does
not matter, so long as the incline is
steep enough to prevent fast riding
when the whole energy of the man is
expended in propelling him up the
grade. The figures found, when com
pared with the ones above, give the
horse power in pretty accurate way

THE LECTURE COURSE.

The National Council of the Junior
Order of United American Mechanics
having, fully indorsed the project of
establishing National Home for the
widows and orphans of members OF
the order, many of the councils
throughout the United States suggest
ed appropriate sites in their respective
States, hoping to secure the home.
A committee on Orphans Home was
appointed by the National Committee,
composed of George w. Elbert, Vim
centown, N. J.; J, H. Zimmerman,
Plain City, o.; William R. Stroh,
Mauch Chunk, Pa. #; d. +. Anderson,
Youngstown, o.. and Curtis De Lam
cey, Hampton, N J. This National
Committee on the location OF the
home, at recent meeting held In
Pittsburg, decided to recommend two
sites to the National Council for their
final decision, namely, Boiling Springs,
Pa, and Tiffin, o. The National
Council will meet in Omaha next
month, when the site will be named.
Carlisle Council, No. 574, OF Penn,
sylvania, is mailing an earnest and
patriotic effort to have the proposed
home located at Boiling Springs, the
garden spot of the Cumberland Val
ley, five miles from Carlisle, which is
reached by steam and trolley cars
The committee having the matter in
charge believe they have selected
site for the home possessing every
desired requirement and are honestly
convinced that the farm of Iaa4 acres
which they offer cannot be surpassed
for fertility and natural resources any
where in the United States. This
same opinion is openly expressed BY
prominent members of the order con
nected with the National and State
Governments. AS matter of State
pride, Carlisle Council and the man,
hundred other councils in the Stat'
are anxious to see the home located
in sold Keystone" The councils o
Ohio are also trying hard to have th'
buildings located there, and the hgh
is now on, with Pennsylvania In IN
lead.

NORMAL SCHOOL NOTES.

How rapidly the years do go, is
the one remark of teacher and student
IN that busy hive, the Normal School.
To any old resident Of our town
visit to our school to-day, compared
with similar visit ten or fifteen years
ago, reveals wonderful change.
In point of numbers the school has
almost doubled since then; in point
of buildings, many thousands of dol
lars have been expended in the erec-
ton and proper equipment Of suitable
buildings to accommodate this great
increase of students. Normal Hill is
indeed, a village in itself. In our en-
tire town no more pleasant scene is
presented then that between 6:3o and
7 P. M. when the grounds are full of
students, spending half an hour, en-.
joying the beautiful campus between
TIE supper hour and time for study.
COMMENCEMENT WEEK.
Commencement week is not far
distant. Already great preparations
are making for that time. The Bac-
calaureate sermon to the Senior Class
will be preached by Rev. H. w.
Ennis of Washington. d. G. This
promises to be one Of the very best
sermons addressed to the graduating
Glass for many years.
The Junior Glass will give an even
ing of rare enjoyment. They are in
training now and while it may be too
early to express opinions, yet we be-
lieve there is herein, an entertainment
of real merit.
FIELD SPORTS.
A new feature is announced. The
managers of the Gymnasium propose
to give a series of field sports.
These will be a new feature, and
afford much enjoyment, and may be
not a little amusement.
Profs. Aldinger and Burdge are
warm in the work and they promise
an interesting time.
THE LECTURE COURSE.
Much inquiry has been made re-
lative to the last lecture of this years
course. The Committee in charge
are glad to announce that the last
lecturer Hon. Charles Emory Smith
will be here May 81. His sub.
ject is "The Gar and His Empire.
