increased passenger business of the
Erie, total of twenty-five special en-
gines have been secured and orders
have been given for entirely new equip
ment for number of the best passen-
ger trains.
Record breaking runs are expected
by the Erie's new engines. They are
of the ten-wheel class, with drivers
seventy inches in diameter. The
combined weight of the engine and ten
der is 131 tons. The working steam
pressure will be 210 pounds to the
square inch.
The action of the Delaware and Hud-
son in enlarging the aXles of their
freight and passenger cars is to be
commended. The old axle though dur
able. occasionally became bent and
sometimes broke. but the ones now in
use will last a lifetime. The new axle
| is fifteen inches in circumference and
| five inches in diameter
There is an unusual activity dis
| played by the numerous railroads CEN
| tering in this city. Every train is
| twice it's usual size and every car is
| packed to it's utmost capacity. The
| freight hands at the various depots
have more work than they can pos
sibly handle. Consequently an extra
| force is necessary. The Delaware and
| Hudson yards are all stocked with
| loaded freight cars. Every kind Of
merchandise mentonable is being un-
| loaded at the depot and the various
merchants about town have their
| teams busily engaged hauling the goods
to the stores.-Wilkes- Barre News.
While improvements are noted on
| most every railroad in the country,
none perhaps is more acceptable than
| the Brown system recently inaugur-
ated on the Delaware and Hudson. In
! stead of a man being suspended under
| the present system for inattention or
| neglect he is given a demerit mark and
when he receives a certain number Of
these he is discharged. But in the
meanwhile if he does something that
is worthy of a merit mark the dement's
are erased. However if a man receives
no demerits and an occasional merit
mark he receives an advancement.
Work will begin in a few days on a
new freight terminal of the Lack
awanna railroad, which is to be estab-
| lished on property recently purchased
in Brooklyn. An immense freight
| warehouse for freight, probably the
| largest in Brooklyn, will be con-
structed there This property was oc-
cupied for many years as a lumber
yard, 1t is particularly valuable as q
railroad terminal and for a number OF
years various transportation companies
have tried to secure it. The establish
ment of this terminal will give the
Lackawanna freight service into and
from Brooklyn that is not surpassed
by any other railroad.

OLIVIA THUMPED MoLTER.
Latter Tried to Protect Mrs. Olivia
from Her Husbands Fury,

The case of Peter Molter against
Peter Olivia. both dwelling near Noun
tain Lake was yesterday heard by AL
derman Kasson, 1t seems that last
Friday night Olivia was giving his
wife a severe beating, and she fled
from the house over to the residence
of Peter Molter, where she sought re-
fuge from her husband.
About 10 o'clock Olivia appeared on
the scene with a pistol and demanded
his wife. Molter refused to surrender
the woman and Olivia at last left the
place in high dungeon.
At midnight he made another ap-
pearance, this time armed with an
axe, which Molter managed to take
away from him and then got him out
of the place.
A few days after this Olivia had Mol
ter arrested and Moter then struck
back by swearing out warrant be-
fore Alderman Sasson for Oliva's ar
rest on the charge Of assault and bat
terry, he having struck him several
blows during their scufIie over the wo-
man.
Olivia was held in $500 bail and found
a bondsman in Edward Frable, Of
| Stone avenue.

Guilty.

John Wood and Harry Lutz, of O.d
Forge, were arraigned before Judge
r. w. Archibald yesterday on the
charge of illegally selling drugs, pre-
ferred by Charles T. George, secretary
of the state pharmaceutical board.
Wood is proprietor, or supposed to be
proprietor of the Lackawanna phar-
macy, and Lutz is alleged to be his
clerk. Neither is a registered pharma-
cist, it is claimed, and neither ever
had any training in compounding pre-
scriptions, except what little Mr. Wood
received from a correspondence school
in Chicago.
The principal witness for the prose-
cution was +. William Stultz, of Phii-
adelphia a detective from the II )bert
]. Linden bureau. He was sent to Old
Forge to gather evidence against the
defendants last August and after a few
days work succeeded, so he claims, in
purchasing rough-on-rats. nuX vOmics.

motion. NJ. w. Lowry is assisting Dis
trict Attorney Jones in the prosecu-
ton.
The embezzlement case against At

lous year, and it does remark.
ably well.
Along with the t1attcriny
prospects for railroa | facilities
in the near future, the improve.
ment on the farms in the way
OF houses, barns and fences
has gone along and the
changes of this year have
transformed the country into
scenes familiar to those that
exist in the Palouse and Pot
latch countries. On every
hand there is evidence of
thrift and enterprise. The va,
cant lands are about all taken.
only those remaining that have
either been overlooked or lost
in the tangled web of Indian
allottments and later surveys.
This season has marked a new
era IN the progress, and hopes
are now centered on the pros.
poets of a railroad and free
homesteads. There has been
a general enhancement in the
values of claims, some of those
improved selling for prices
ranging from $1,000 to $4,000.
In the development of the
farms the district school houses
have not been overlooked, and
come in for a commendable
share of attention. The dis.
tricts have been divided so as
to serve the best interests of
the people, and while the ap.
portionment of money for this
purpose is small, public enter.
prise has manifested itself in
subscriptions to maintain the
schools as well as building the
school houses, which keeps the
district out of debt. 1t IS
thought that with this years
levy on the increased assess
ment of personal property the
district will soon be on basis
that will provide better school
facilities.
The Indian ponies that once
grazed over the fields free and
unrestricted are rapidly disap-
pearing with each winter. The
ranges have been narrowed
down to the unoccupied school
section and the sides of the
canyons, until the carcasses of
the dead animals that fall with
the hard winters tell the tale.
The new settlers refuse them
for the better class of work
horses that they brought with
them or are breeding.
