few of us, however, are exempt from the
worries that haunt the daily life struggle,
and in consequence the most useful lives are
generally the ones marked for nervous col
lapse. We cannot give up, our families must
be provided for, buff what are they going to
do when we do give up? Under this strain Of
constant effort Of mind and body no one can
continue indefinitely unscated, and multi
tudes of half broken men and women

without securing aid, and they work along as
well they in aimless sort of way

cured and put quickly on their feet by DIR.

There may be reason for lightly
seeding of grains which will often
from single kernel produce two,
three or even more stalks and a pro-
portionate increase of yield. But in
grass seeding this rule does not hold.
each seed can produce but one stalk.
This, under the most favorable cir
cumstances, may spread so as to COW
er wide space. But in grass seeding
everything at first is against the
young plant. It's seed is small. while
the grain is comparatively large.
Naturally the grass plant is cores
pondingly small and wholly unable to
compete with the more vigorous
weeds, which are always ready
smother it. The only way in weedy
ground, as most long cultivated soil
is, must there be to seed so heavily
that the grass crop must from the first
have the advantage. This is the sea-
son for fall seeding. We therefore
advise to seed heavily and in addition
SOW some clover seed in the spring.
which will fill in the vacant spaces
which the fall seeding has not occu-
pied. 1t is an old saying that nature
abhors vacuum. There is no better
way to exclude weeds then to seed
heavily with grass or clover, either OF
which, if seeded so as to cover the
whole ground, is the best weed ex-
terminator known.

MRS. F. N. TURNER.

This community experienced
shock on Sunday morning on hearing
of the sudden death of Mrs. F. N.
Turner, at her home on fifth Street
On Saturday night she retired feeling
as well as usual, and on Sunday morn-
ing she complained to her husband
that she had not slept we'll, and was
feeling strangely. In few moments
afterwards she realized that she was
dying and so informed her husband,
and told him to call the children. A
neighbor was sent for, but before any
help arrived she expired, at half past
six o'clock. Mrs. Turner'S maiden
name was Ada Eshleman, and she

THE KARNlVAL.

The attendance at the Karnival
last Thursday and Friday evenings
was large, and the performance enter
tanning. Eighty-five young ladies rep.
resented as many business houses, and
marched about the stage, each one
carrying a banner with the name of
the firm thereon, and wearing appro.
pirate costumes. The displays worthy
of special mention were those of T.
l.. Gunton and Artificial Ice Co.,
who presented very pretty tableaux.
Miss Katharine Gardner, represent
ing J. E. Roys, on Friday night wore
over $4,000 worth of diamonds, and
went through some very graceful Del
sartean movements which displayed
the sparkling gems to good advantage.
Miss Natalie Foulke represented J.
w. Guernsey, dealer in musical instru-
ments, of Scranton, and was becom-
ingly attired. She sang a pretty song
and did it well.
Miss Kunkle, in behalf of c. H.
Reice, dealer in meats, made hit by
carrying little pig on the stage. The
pig was very much alive and made its
presence known by series of squeals.
Miss Kunkle was awarded the prize
by vote of the audience.
Miss Catharine Strohm represented
THE COLUMBIAN, and she has our
thanks for the graceful manner in
which she did it.
All the others did their part well,
and many of them made decided hits,
but it is impossible to allude to them
all individually, for lack of space, and
because we cannot remember them
all in such multitude.

DAMAGE BY STORM.

Last Friday afternoon about three
o'clock black clouds obscured the sun,
and it grew quite dark. Many people
who have been quite nervous at the
appearance of storm since the great
blow of last fall, were in an unhappy
frame of mind for time, but no dam
age was done here, though there was
a heavy downfall of rain, and some
wind. Not long after the storm had
ceased here, news reached the town
that other places had not Jared so we'll.
The gable end of the Worsted Mill at
Millville was blown in, doing damage
to the amount of several thousand
dollars, and the chimney on the store
of c. B. Henry's store was blown off
and the roof broken. Thos. Wilson's
barn near Millville was unroofed, and
numerous small buildings in the neigh
borhood were injured. Jumping from
Millville to Centre township the wind
struck the barn on the farm of the
late Judge Millard, and completely
demolished it, killing three horses,
and breaking machinery and wagons.
A fine apple orchard was ruined, and
smaller buildings injured.
Mrs. Millard and family have been
singularly unfortunate. About three
years ago their home burned down,
and a new one had to be erected.
Then last fall the storm damaged some
of their buildings, and uprooted trees,
and only few months ago Judge
Millard was taken from them by the
hand of death. We have not heard
of any serious damage elsewhere in
the county, beyond the uprooting Of
trees and slight injury to crops.

RECENT DEATHS.
MRS. w. o. HOLMES.

The death of Mrs. w. o. Holmes,
which occurred on Friday evening at
half past eleven o'clock, was not un-
expected. She had been afflicted with
cancer for some months, and in March
last an operation was performed at
the Moses Taylor Hospital in Scran-
ton. For time her recovery SEEM
ed possible, and her friends were much
encouraged, but change for the
worse took place, and for two weeks
her life hung by thread until the
end came peacefully. The age of the
deceased was hfty-one years, nine
months, and twenty-three days. Her
maiden name was Christina Baum
gardner and she was a daughter of
John Baumgardner of Ransom, Pa.
She was born at Ransom, and was
married to William o. Holmes on
November 20, 1864. They have
resided In Bloomsbury since August
1869. The surviving members OF
the family are the husband, and
five children, namely, w. d. Holmes,
agent of the D. L. & w. r. R. Co.
at Catawissa; Fred, teller of the
Farmers National Bank Bessie
Edward and Christine who reside
at home. Great sympathy is felt fol
the family in their affiiction.

on Monday afternoon at two O'Clock

CRUSHED TO DEATH.

Ramsey, aged about thirteen years,
son of James Yost, who resides on
Eighth Street, near the Furniture
Factory, met with fatal accident on
Tuesday afternoon. He was riding
on load of lumber, when in some
way or other he fell from the wagon
to the ground and the hind wheel
passed over him lengthway, crushing
MIN almost beyond recognition. The
unfortunate boy fingered for about an
hour when death relieved him of his
suffering. The funeral took place
from the house to-day.
