PROP. COLES PREDICTIONS FOR
DECEMBER.

Our prediction last month "No.
vember will prove very peculiar
month. For while some sections are
having sunshine and summer-like
weather, other sections will have
nothing but rain, hail, snow, slush,
floods, billiards., high winds, etc."
proved true. That we read the true
meaning of the strange position of
the Planets, no one, with any sense
of honor in them, can doubt tor an
instant. This month Earth will sail
in between Old Red Warrior Mars
and the sun. Old Red Warrior Mars
will be behind poor Old Mother
Earth's back and he will play all sorts
of tricks on her. He will cause her
to be very restless and angry.
Hurricanes, billiards, cyclones, floods
earthquakes, tornadoes, tidal waves
and great electrical storms may be
looked for in many sections"

The dinner served at the Exchange
Hotel on Thanksgiving day was an
elaborate affair, splendidly cooked and
nicely served. Handsomely printed
menus on each table contained list
of the numerous tempting viands, in
cluding Blue Points, soups, fish, boiled
tongue and ham, roast turkey, beet
and lamb, chicken pie, oyster pates,
vegetables, salads, deserts, fruits and
many other good things.
BY the way, the Exchange has taken
a place in the front rank, and is one
of the best hotels along the Susque-
hanna. Although extensive improve
ments and alterations were made when
G.. Snyder & Son became the owners
and proprietors, they are not through
yet, but are constantly making further
improvements. The wood work OF
the front has been newly painted, and
fine new upright piano has been
placed in the parlor. There is nc
handsomer Office and barroom in the
state outside of the large cities, and
the proprietors are justly proud oi
their house.

THAT BURIED OITY,

In 10 A. d., occurred that terrific
eruption of Vesuvius which in one
day overwhelmed in irremedlable ruin
the cities of Pompeii, Herculaneum,
and Stabiae. For more than 1000
years Pompeii lay undisturbed be-
meath heaps of ashes and cinder. In
I7ss excavations began and since
that time wonderful discoveries have
been made and tine story OF this
buried city is full of thrilling interest.
While travelling in Europe Mr.. A. V,
Bower made a special study OF
Pompeii. He secured special pic
lures of the excavations and has pre-
pared a lecture on the subject that
is heard with delight and profit. He
uses a powerful stereopticon and
one hundred views to illustrate his
lecture. This lecture will be given In
the Methodist Tabernacle, Blooms
burg, Saturday evening Dec. 5th, un
der the auspices of the Junior League
the proceeds for the new Methodist
Church. Admission IS and IS cts
The public is cordially invited. Lee
tnre begins at 300 o'clock.

DEATH OF A FORMER RESIDENT.

The following article appeared in
Mackinaw (Illinois) Enterprise of No
vember ,oth:
Mr. Clark Barton, the son of Elisha
and Rachel Barton, was born near
Bloomsburg, Northumberland county,
"a, on Dec. aIst, 1872, and died at
Macklnaw, ILL.,, Nov. IS, 1906, aged
50 years, 10 months and 81 days.
lie came to this state in 1885 and
settled near Mackinaw, and was mar
red June 10, to Miss Eliza Myers.
Ten children were born to them of
whom only two survive him, Mr.. AL
Barton and Mrs. Mary Lindsey. There
are eleven grand children and three
great grand children living.
Mr. Barton was a well known citizen
of this place whose loss will be felt by
many. During his last prolonged ill
ness he was patient and uncomplan-
ing, though he was suffering from a
very painful cancer. Everything was
done for him that could be done by
his son, Mr.. AL Barton, whom he lived
with since the death of his wife, to
make his closing days peaceful and
happy. HIS death was as peaceful as
sleep. He leaves behind a large
circle of relatives and friends to mourn
his departure.
Mr.. Barton was one of the Oldest
and most respected citizens of Mack
inaw township. He was a lifelong
Democrat and has held various town
ship offices. He cast his last vote at
the late election. His generosity pre-
vented him from becoming rich man.
The funeral was held from the Chris
tian church on Friday afternoon at
o'clock. Old settlers were gathered
in large numbers, viewing the remains
of one who, with themselves, had
braved the trials of pioneer life. The
funeral sermon was delivered by Rev.
o. w. Stewart, and was eloquent and
impressive far beyond the ordinary.
There was large concourse of people
PiSoCht w pay tiSii idot iCoPCSlo W
the deceased. His remains were in
tered in the Mackinaw cemetery.
The following were the pail bearers,
who were great friends to Mr.. Barton
while living: Messrs. George Patter-
son, Daniel Flesher, Jacob Smith,
John Haybarger, Sol. and Daniel
Puterbaugh. Thus has another old
settler gone to his last resting place.
Clark Barton was son of Elisha
Barton, who was a brother of John,
Caleb, Isaiah, Cyrus Barton and Mrs
VIM. Robson, all of Bloomsburg and
vicinity.
His father, Elisha, died when Clark
was young and his mother married
Peter Pursell, both of whom died at
an advanced age in Sunbury, where
several of their children still reside.
Clark was the last survivor of
Elisha's family, Abram, Elisha and
Mrs. DR.. VIM. Moss having all died
several years ago, Mrs. Moss at Pekin,
ILL.,, and the others at Mackinaw, ILL.,
Before Clark went west he was en-
ployed by George Miller in his store
at Beach Haven.

PHILOL0GIAN REUNION.

The Philologian Society celebrated
its twenty sixth university on Thanks
giving night, by giving the students
and town people an opportunity to
hear Booker T. Washington discuss
the negro problem. The speaker is
one of the foremost colored men of
the country, and is the Principal of a
school at Tuskegee, Alabama, in
which both students and teachers are
all negroes. The school owns 1900
acres Of land, thirty-six buildings, and
has over eight hundred pupils. The
cost Of running it is $4,000 a year.
Mr.. Washington was introduced by
DR.. Welsh, and in opening, said that
some years ago when about six hun
dred negroes started for Africa to join
the colony at Liberia, many people
thought that the problem had been
solved. "Send the negroes back to
Africa where they belong" They
forgot that on the day that this colony
left this country there were as many
more black babies born in the south.
In a very humorous way he claimed
that his people had better right here
than the white people. You came
here without being asked to come.
Nobody wanted you, and you came
against the protest of the leading
citizens of America in 1892. After
you were settled, you could not get
along without us, and so at great in
convenience and expense you sent
over to Africa for us, and gave us a
special pressing invitation to come
here. You came when nobody want
ed you we came by your invitation,
and now that we are here, we have
sense enough to stay"
There are 100000 of black peo-
pie in this country, and 10000, 900
whites. Fo; two hundred and fifty
years the blacks were slaves, and had
no idea of doing anything for them
selves. 1t is not fair to expect them
to overcome in thirty years what they
were so long in learning. The speaker
believed that the blacks of the south
must be raised by education, and the
first principle he teaches his pupils is
that work is not degrading. That
labor is degrading is an idea prevalent
in the south which is not original with
the blacks. All sorts of trades are
taught at his school, and his pupils
60 out among the people and teach
them how to manage for themselves (;
how to buy how to get out Of debt.
Most of the negroes mortgage their
crops before they are sown, and as
result they are hopelessly in debt.
They spend their money for things
that they do not need. He mention
ed one instance where man paid
sixteen dollars for clock, when not
single member Of his family could tell
the time of day.
The address was interspersed with
many funny anecdotes, and through
out it was instructive, entertaining
and amusing.
At the close Mr.. Keiple played a
violin solo, which showed him to be
master of the instrument.

NORMAL 80, PHILADELPHIA O.

The foot ball season came to an
end in Bloomsburg on Thanksgiving
day when the Normal School defeated
the Central High School of Philadel-
phia by the jug handled score Of SO
to o. From what had been heard of
the Philadelphia team, great many
hoped to see good game which was
expected, but were sadly disappointed
as the visitors proved no match at all
for the Normal, who played all around
them and won as they pleased. With
this game closed the most successful
foot ball season the Normal has ever
had. The team was by far the strong
est that ever represented the School,
and judging from the crowds that at
tended the games we would think they
came out all right financially. The fol-
lowing is a list of the games they have
played this year, and the scores made
in each game:
AT home, Oct. 8, Normal 2a, Sus-
quehanna University o; Oct. 10, Nor
NAL 80, Pittston o. AT Kingston,
Oct. II, Normal o, Wyoming Semi
nary O. At home, Oct. "a, Normal
30, Wilkes-Barre o; Oct. 81, return
game with Wyoming Seminary was
commenced, but resulted in squabble
before either had scored; Nov. 10,
Lafayette II, Normal o. This game
was the best of the season, and con-
sidering the strength of their oppo-
nents, the Normal boys made splen-
did showing. On November IA the
team which was minus one good man
and three others in crippled condi-
rion, went to Lewisburg and were
beaten by Bucknell by score of IS
to 6.
Thus it will be seen that the team
has certainly done great work this
year. A great deal of credit for the
teams good showing is due William
Worthington, who has worked hard
and spent a great deal OF time in get
ting the boys down to good work.

1t is certainly remarkable the causa

1t is certainly remarkable the causa-
lities that have followed the hanging
of Holmes, the multi-murderer, in
Philadelphia, some months ago. The
Judge who tried the case, number
of the Jurors, several of the witnesses
some of the lawyers and jailers, have
died or suffered some mental trouble
since participating in the trial and
on Tuesday, Howard Perkins, a
warden of Moyamensing prison, com,
mitted suicide by shooting, to end
his worry about Holmes hanging
There are those who say that Holmes
had an "evil eye."

DEATH OF REV. g. E. WEEKS.

Rev. G. E. Weeks of wisburg,
who was formerly pastor of the Baptist
Church of this town for four years, and
who left here about year ago, died
at the above place on Sunday morning
last, of typhoid fever. He bore his
affection very patiently, and after
suffering for about four weeks, he
passed from this earth of toll and care
to his eternal rest. A widow, and
two children, Nellie L. and George
X. are left to mourn the loss OF a
loving husband and father. They have
the sympathy of all in this their hour

Unless there is something done to
Athletic Park early in the spring, the
young men who have been in the
habit of spending an hour or two every
night in healthful exercise during the
summer, will not be able to do so, and
they will be compelled to go some
where else. This would probably be
worse for the young men and the
town in general. Fix up the Park.
