Last evening the young people of
Emporium again manifested their
ability in the social line by giving one
of those brilliant parties which has

scene of gay festivity. At 9:3O the
program opened with a waltz to the
enhancing strains of the Ridgway
orchestra, and from that time up to an
early hour this morning the merriment
continued. Refreshments were served
at midnight, and an enjoyable time is
reported by all present
A party of guests from Smethport
with VIM. Seger as chaperon, together
with the following young men from

pleasure of the evening: Messrs.

Popular Young Man Dead.

st. Marys, Pa, Nov. 3.-Edward
Reuscher, the son of eX-County Com
missioner Geo. Reuscher, Sr., of st.
Marys, was killed yesterday about a
mile from the site of the new county
home near this place, by being struck
by a locomotive on the Buffalo, St.
Marys and Southwestern railroad.
The young man, in company with his
brother George, was going to Bendigo,
via Glen Hazel, with a wagon load of
provisions for lumber camp.
They were driving team and when
they reached the school road crossing,
about a mile from their home, the en-
gine came along, unattached, and
going at a pretty fair rate of fspeed.
The boys did not see the locomotive
until the wagon was on the crossing,
and it struck the vehicle full force.
The engineer saw the boys and put
his hand on the throttle, but the loco
motive was going at too rapid a speed
to be stopped. Edward was on the
side of the wagon next to the engine
and received heavy blow in the head,
rendering him unconscious.
George was more fortunate and es-
capped without serious injury, although
bruised a little by being thrown from
Illc wagon. One OF Jne nOfSe'S legs
was broken and had to be killed.
DR.. Mullhaupt was summoned and
examined Edwards ininries, but he
never gained consciousness and died in
about an hour.
Edward Reuscher was about eighteen
years of age and bright, studious and
intelligent young man, being grad
uate of the Benzinger high school. He
was brother of Prof. Jos. Fl. Reuscher.
late district superintendent of Benzin
ger schools, who died of typhoid fever
OF Saturday, October 2nd, 1897.
Besides the aged father and mother,
who have been called upon twice with
in almost year to mourn the loss of
dearly beloved son, Mr.. Reuscher
leaves two brothers, William and Ed
ward, and four sisters, all married.

Oldest Person in Central Pennsylvania
Dead.

On last Monday night Mrs. Nancy
Barger, the Oldest lady in central
Pennsylvania, answered her last roll
call, aged 106 years, l month and Il
days. On the 26th of August she fell
and injured her hip. Since then she
has been unable to walk around. Up
to that time she attended to her house

The Result.

The result of the election in this
county, last Tuesday, while it is hum.
iliating to the editor of the PRESS, is
| not to be wondered at. Those familiar
with the tactics resorted to to debauch
the voters, know that Sibley's money
was openly used to defeat the Republi-
can county ticket, especially the head of
it. The campaign was the dirtiest and
most rotten ever known in history and
those beautiful Reformers (?) who
Joined with the whiskey element and
the boodlers to debauch the voters of
this county must have an exalted
opinion of themselves. When men, in
this enlightened age, are not permitted
to vote their convictions under the
penalty of being discharged; when
men calling themselves christians and
would-be leaders will get down to the
lowest depths of filthy of the filthiest
politics, it is time for thinking men to
stop and ponder
We are satisfied with the results and
if those so-called Republicans can
justify their course, well and good.
We are none the less Republican and
believe in the principles of the party.
We have no regrets to offer and no
apologies to make. Our campaign
was conducted strictly in accordance
with the law governing the same.
The result in the State is very graft
flying to true Republicans. The Re
publicans sweep the State by an over
whelming maiority--over 1851 plu-
rality over jerks. Swallow was no
where in the vote, falling all to pieces,
and not carrying the vote he did last
year by over 10000, and carrying only
one county-Lackawan The leader
of the sour-faced gang has crawled into
his hole
Out Of thirty Congressman the Re-
publicans have elected twenty-one,
and the Legislature is overwhelmingly
Republican, insuring the re. election of
Senator Quay, or some other good,
stalwart Republican to the United
States Senate. The Nation is Repub-
lican and stands by the President.

from drowning. Mr.. West was for.
merly resident of Superior. He and

We're drowned.
The accident happened on Burnside
lake, where Mr.. Pattison maintains an
elegant summer cottage and where dur
ing the summer he always entertains
many of his friends 1t is SAID that
West and Hamen could not swim, or if
they could were probably overcome by
the cold water. Both Mr.. Pattison and
Mr.. Morrisey nearly lost their lives
and their condition required the at
tendance of physicians after they were
finally ashore.
Mr. Hamen is a druggist at Superior
and his place of business is at 2S7 West
Fifth street. He was a well known and
popular young man. Mr.. West, or

his friends, has been a resident of Ely
with his wife for about a year He was
formerly in the register of deeds office
at Superior but since going to Ely has
had charge of the interests of Martin
Pattison there. He looked after the
quantity of ore taken from the Chand-
Ter mine and from the Pioneer when it
was operating. kilograms were re-
ceived at Superior regarding the ac.
cident
Early last evening there were reports
that Martin Pattison was drowned, but
telegram received from Capt John
Pengilly about II o'clock stated posi-
lively Mr.. Pattison is safe. 1t is sup
posed Indian guides brought the news
of the disaster to Ely from BURNSIDE
lake. The distance is about five miles
Vests body was recovered and a
searching party headed by Capt. Pen
gilly is searching for Hamen's body.
AS soon as the news reached Mrs.
Martin Pattison last night she ordered
a special train to take her and others
related to the persons involved in the
accident to Ely. The train left the
union depot at II o'clock last night
with orders to run as fast as was safe
The party on the special is composed
Of Mrs Martin Pattison, Mrs. r. G.

How to Grow Lean PORK

If the brood SOW belongs to family
noted for their production of fat meat,
then her progeny will certainly start
in life with a tendency in the same di-
rection. But if the young pigs are fed
lightly after weaving and compelled to
forage in the field for most of their sub
stance, the active life will prevent them
accommodating much fat and turn a
large share of their food into lean meat
or muscle, tie natural product of active
exercise.

Blew Open a Safe.

Early last Friday morning a gang of
five burglars broke into the store of
John f. Smith, at Sterling Run, and
after ransacking the money drawer,
and a show case containing watches
and ieWelry, they blew open the safe
but the report of the explosion aroused
the whole neighborhood and scared
the robbers so that they beat hasty
retreat and took refuge in box car of
a West-bound freight train that was
passing. Telegrams We're sent to all
the towns along the road, west of EN-
pOrium, to arrest any tramps that
should be seen getting off that train,
and at ST. Marys when three of the
men got off Of the train two of them
were promptly arrested by Chief OF
Police Wilhelm, assisted by Deputy
Olson. Considerable jewelry, a watch,
about tWenty-three dollars in money
and a bottle partly filled with gun
powder were found upon the men
that evening Sheriff Mundy and Spec
ial Officer Reid brought them to En-
porium on mail and lodged them in
the county Jail.
This morning the two prisoners were
brought before Justice Larrabee, who,
after hearing the evidence, bound them
over to court in the sum of 81 900 bail
each.
Mr. Smith testified that notes and
orders, amounting to nearly four
thousand dollars, which were in the
safe, were destroyed by the explosion.
