swAMIom, IAnesoH ! CO. FAILURE.
Bath Business Circles Shaksn BY Failure 81
CtN's Oldest Firm.

Bath, July 22.-The Daily Times, to-
night. says: The report. yesterday, of
the assignment Of the firm Of Swanton,
Jameson e Co., was a surprise party
to the business men in general in this
city and among the laboring classes
and general pubic the fact was heard
with expressions Of regret and sympa-
thy on all sides for it was something
wholly unexpected as this firm above
most others was considered the solid
firm of the vicinity. 1t is the Oldest
firm doing business in this city.
The assignment was made, yesterday
afternoon. The following is a copy of
the notices sent out, this morning.
Bath, July p. 1897.
We have been obliged to make an as
signment for the protection of ourselves
and all our creditors. This assignment
has been made, today. to Messrs. Chas
chas. ii. Mcclellan OF the firm of j. n.
Allen Il Co. and VIM. -. SewaIl of the
firm of Arthur Sewail & Co. A meeting
of the creditors will be called by the as
signces soon as definite statement of
the condition of our affairs can be male
SWANTON, JAMESON g. co.
Note-Goods in transit will be accounted
for in full by the assignees.
II. w. Swanton of the firm was seen
this noon and he said that no definite
statement could be made as yet. He
expected the business would be carried
on as heretofore by the assignees until
it could be recognized and did not ex-
pcct the business would be broken up
The assignment was brought about
by the continued poor business in trade
and shrinkage and depression in values
held by the firm.
President Drake of the Eastern
Steamboat Co. refused to say more
than that he did not think that his
company would be a heavy loser by
the failure.
The Times. however. learns upon ex-
cellent authority that ii is charged
that Mr.. Swanton as treasurer of the
Steamboat Company issued notes iile-
gally and endorsed them with the firm
name of Swanton. Jameson & Co, and
that this action caused the failure of
the firm. 1t is also asserted, on the
same authority, that it is likely that
legal action of some sort will be taken
against Mr. Swanton.

MAGISTRATE Loses His Case.

Chambcrsburg, OFT. 29-Rcccnt-
" MAGISTRATE John \. ScidcrS OF
this place brought suit against the
county commissioners to recover
fees in Il summary case where the
defendant had gone to Jail for costs.
The commissioners, upon advice OF
the County Solicitor, refused to pay
the bill, and the appeal to court was
taken out as a case stated. Judge
Stewart to-day filed his opinion, de-
Gliding in favor ofthe commissioners.
The case stated by Magistrate
Seidcrs is one that affects all the
Magistrates and constablcs in the
State. According to the intcrpre-
tation of the law here made in all
cases of summary conviction, for
drunkenness, disorderly conduct,
penalties under game laws, tresspass
and similar otfenses, where, the par
ties are found guilty and sent to Jail
for non-paymcnt of fines and costs,
the county is not liable for the costs
and the Magistrate and constablcs
get nothing for their work. The
fees and expenses in such cases have
been paid for years and are yet paid
in most counties of the State.

N HOrhbeF usuuleBurS NUtAeu u h'rO
grcssive Farmer la the West.
We are in receipt of the Aberdeen
Nems of South Dakota under date o
August 26th which says:
One of the most successfully con.
Quoted farms in this region this ycal
is that of DIR. ID. +. Swengel, stu
atcd about seven miles north and :
little west of Aberdeen. Through
the varying years of the past, whcl
the prospect was often gloomy and
disappointing, the doctor kept AT
work improving his place and add
ing to his bcttcrmcnts, until he now
has a farm property Of which he
may justly feel proud. He has not
always been fortunate in his tenant.
and has lost some advantages in that
respect which others have had.
However, his place this year will
net him for his share over $1,000.
There are 245 acres of wheat, some
Of it very fine indeed, upon the farm,
while oats, barley, millet, etc, III
crease the acreage to cereals to over
three hundred acres. He has cigh-
teen acres in corn, and has by all
odds the best piece of that product
in the neighborhood and there is
probably no better in the county.
His potatoes and vegetables will
give big yields and will show a
handsome profit. DR.. Swengeps
father was one of the best farmers
in Pennsylvania in his day, and the
general principals ofl land cultivation
are well understood by the doctor
and he is now turning them to good
advantage.
DR.. Swcngels farm has an excel
lent equipment of buildings and ma
chinery and apparatus. Everything
is well cared for and slip shod meth
ods are not tolerated. When ma
chincry is not in use it is housed.
The same care and torcthought,
which pay biz in the long run, are
exercised in all directions. He has
twcnty-threc head of horses upon
the place, many Of which he raised,
more than as many cattle, and hogs,
fowls Of all kinds, etc. His plans
for next year promise TO be even
more successful than they have
been this.
DR.. Swcngcl formerly resided on
the farm west Of town now occupied
bv Uriah Klosc.
