MANY PENSIONERS PAY TAXES.
Disclosures Made by the Investiga-
ton of Representntive brandon.

tiOn of Representative Brandon.
Atlanta, Ga, Nov. 30.-Representative
Brandon Of Fulton county has been max
ing an exhaustive study of the pension
question preparatory to the discussion of
his bill placing all pensioners upon an in
digent basis He has taken the pension
rolls for five counties, including munich
pal and county communities. and has COM
pared them with the tax returns of the
pensioners.
The result shows that 20 per cent of
the pensioners return their property at
and above $500.
The total number in the five counties
who draw pensions is 1928, and the num-
Der whose property is returned at $500
and upward is 66.
Mr.. Brandon has copied the tax returns
in each case and considerable number
of them run from 81, 600 to $500 He says
the returns are generally under the ac-
tual value of property, and that some of
the pensioners are probably worth a great
deal more than the tax books indicate.

The Trout Hog.

The trout hog-the man who destroys
trout with the aid of dynamite, or any
other device than that used by the
honest anglers in danger of being
made pay dearly for his violation of
the law. The woods in this part OF
the state are full of detectives who are
paid to see that the private trout
streams are protected from the trout
hog. These detectives are determined
not to allow a guilty man to escape,
and the prospects is that number Of
men who have been illegally fishing
the trout streams will be hauled into
court In former years it was hard to
convict those who were guilty ofillegal
fishing because one neighbor did not
wish to testify against another neigh
Dor, but now that the game associations
and sportsmen have taken determin-
ed stand in the matter and have en-
ployed sworn officers to make the ar
rests and furnish the evidence against
violators of the law, the culprits will
find that their wisest course is to cease
operation at once. The fishing clubs
can take care of themselves, for they
have in their employ private watch
men whose duty it is to prevent those
not belonging to the clubs from fishing
on their streams. But the anglers who
must go to the public streams to catch
trout are not so fortunate. 1t is a diff
ficult matter to apprehend the willy
trout hog, and yet there is no doubt
but that with the assistance of the
honorable anglers these illegal fisher
men will eventually be brought to
-Williamsport Sun.

The Mutthersbaugh-W Wilton NuptiaIs.

From Driftwood Gazette.
Driftwood was the scene of gay
and festive occasion Thursday evening
when Miss Emily Wilton became the
wife of w. E. Mutthersbaugh, of this
place.
The ceremony was performed at the

Promptly at o'clock the bridal couple
and their attendants entered the room.
They were united by Bev. M. G. Piper.
After the ceremony the guests
were refreshed with tempting edibles
prepared by Mrs. John Mcdonald.
Words would be futile in attempting
to describe the presents of which the
I couple were the recipients.
The bride was arrayed in white and
looked beautiful, and the groom wore
the conventional black. The bride
carried bouquet of white bridal roses.
The bride is of a well-to-do family
residing at Karthaus; is an intelligent
and amiable young lady and will make
an excellent wife.
The groom is the eldest son of Mr..
and Mrs J. A. Mutthersbaugh of this
place; is an intelligent and industrious

ton with the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company at Emporium.

Funeral of Rev. F. w. Raikes.

The funeral of the late Rev. f. w.
Raikes, whose death we announced in
our last issue, took place from his resi-
dence on West Avenue, Buffalo, on the
30th of April, and was largely attended.
Friends attended from Sandusky,
Dunkirk, Emporium and other places.
The floral offerings of both wreaths
and flowers were beautiful. The cor
tege left the home at 2:30 for st. Marks
church, where the first portion of the
service was held. The honorary pail
bearers were Revs. DR.. Smith. Brogdon,
Richards, Barton, Kimball and North,
all of whom were robed. The active
pail bearers were Messrs. III. Coles, of
Sandusky; III. Mullett, d. Cargrove, g.
Richardson, j. d. Clark, and G. Cobb.
The remains were met at the church by
Bishop Walker, who read the opening
services most impressively. He was
assisted by the Rector, Rev. G. F. J.
Wrigley. The Choir were in their
places and some very sweet music was
rendered,
Rev Raikes formerly resided in EN-
porium as Rector of Emmanuel church
and the present fourishing condition
of this Parish is mainly due to his
energetic work. Later he went to
North East, Pa, as Rector of Holy
Cross Church, but resigned, owing to
failing health, and located in Buffalo
with his estimable wife, where his two
sons reside. During his residence in
Buffalo he has been supplying churches
when required. Rev. Raikes, ass our
citizens we'll know, was man of great
ability, very active and Jealous in his
work, genial and beloved by all His
death was sad blow to his Emporium
friends, who extend to the bereaved
family their deepest sympathy. Many,
indeed, are the poor families in Empo-
rum who have reason to remember the
kind-hearted and generous assistance
rendered them by our deceased friend
and from many homes silent prayers
were offered for the safe repose OF our
late beloved Rector and friend.

BUSY Austin.

Ye editor visited the hustling town of
Austin last Monday, in company with
Hon. J. G. Johnson, and we were sur
prised to see how rapidly and substan-
TALLY the town was recovering from
the late conflagration. Good brick
business blocks have been erected in
all sections of the burg and from ap-
pearances Austin is good for many
years to come. This place being the
centre of the great F. H. and G. w.
Goodyear lumber enterprises, covering
almost the entire Southern portion of
Potter county, and section of Clinton
and Cameron counties, the great bulk
of the trade centres at Austin. The
recent purchase by the lumber kings
F. H. g. G. w. Goodyear-of the Addi-
son & Northern r. R., extends the
Buffalo & Susquehanna R. R. we'll into
New York and since they have now
branched out for additional business,
no telling where they may go. The
Goodyears are certainly hustlers and
can smell hemlock tree as far as sight
will carry.
We called at the Autograph office, to
pay our respects to friend Caskey, and
found him on crutches, the result of
running to a fire and coming into con-
tact with an ash pit. Mr.. Caskey, who
gets up one of the Eeatest papers com
ing to our desk, certainly conducts a
model printing establishment His
office is clean, neat and orderly and
contains all the latest types, machinery
and conveniences necessary for the con-
duction ola live paper. Austin GER
tainlv should, and we know they do,
feel pride in their up-to-date editor,
! postmaster and his pleasant surround
ings.
We had the pleasure of meeting Mr..
T. Fl. Goodyear and his able Supt., Mr..
! Metcalf, to whom we certainly feel
under lasting obligations for their very
courteous treatment during our short
stay in the Hemlock City.
Walter B. Thompson is conducting a
barber shop on Main street, containing
three chairs. 1t is an admirable loca-
ton and his establishment is first class.
"Rory" McSwan came putting in on
one of the 'stem- winders" and wave
of his hand was all we had time for.
Dan'l Mccormick, formerly a resident
of this place, we met and he spun OUT a
long list OF inquiries about Emporium
friends. Limited time, and press OF
business engagement, prevented us
from calling on other Opportunities
now located there.
Our old friend Orrin Courtright, &
candidate for Republican nomination
of County Treasurer, met us at Keatine
Summit and conducted us through the
town. We are glad to learn that Orri1's
prospects for the nomination are fiat
tering. He served during the war Il
Capt Johnson's company.
