M0RDANSVILLB HAS A GHOST.
The Visits Of an Apari,ion is Keeping the
Residents OF the Little Town in
After Night.

The Philadelphia Times reporter,
of town, has gathered from a reliable
source, the particulars of recent visit
Of a ghost at Mordansvile. The
residents of the village are very much
excited over the matter. The story
| goes as follows:
"Whlle two young men were driv-
ing across the bridge few evenings
ago their horse suddenly stopped, re-
fusing to go forward, and showing ev-
cry evidence Of fright, although they
could see nothing.
Becoming alarmed they called loud
ly for assistance, and when some Of
the villagers arrived, carrying lanterns,
they declare they saw large skeleton
standing directly in front of the ami
NAL. The ghostly visitor was distinct
ly visible to both the young men in
the buggy, as well as to the villagers,
but as the latter approached 1t slowly
faded from view.
When they had recovered from Their
fright they came to the conclusion
that trick had been played upon
them, but an examination showed no
evidence OF it, and the horse, quiver-
ing with fear, could hardly be induced
to pass the spot.
Since that evening the apparition
has been seen by several people, its
latest visit being Sunday night, when
1t appeared to two young girls who
were going through the bridge, and
who, although badly scared, assert
positively that they saw the skeleton,
which, they declare, was at least eight
feet in height.
The great majority of the residents
of that section believe firmly in the
apparition, and traffic over the bridge
after nightfall has become very light, |
many OF the people driving several
miles to escape crossing it."

They Are Imposters.

An organized gang of tramps,
dressed in fairly respectable manner,
has, during the past few days, sue.
ceeded in securing substantial fnan-
clal assistance from members of the
Masonic order, Odd Fellows, p. O. S.
OF A., Junior Mechanics and Senior
Mechanics, in the upper end of the
county. As far as can be ascertained
each applicant is entirely unworthy Of
help, and fraud has been discovered
IN more than one case. Efforts are
now being made to warn the various
lodges against the imposters, and re-
leVing officers, or other members APP.
preached, are requested to demand
the production Of the membership
cards before giving any assistance.

The council of Montgomery has
adopted an ordinance, and the bur-
CESS has signed it, which prohibits the
sale of ice cream, peanuts, chewing
gum, cigars, tobacco and meat on
Sunday. The ordinance will go into
effect in the very near future. The
of the stores, in which
these several articles are sold, are
complaining about the ordinance, and
say that it discriminates, as there are
many other stores doing business on
Sunday that are not touched by the
new law.

A Few Ifs.

If all waste paper were burned in
stead of being SO often thrown care
lessly down, our streets would appear
much more attractive.
If no one would expectorate on the
pavement it would be less disgusting
to the stomach of the sidewalk sweep
er and the pedestrian, and remove a
generative source Of contagion and
disease
If banana and orange rinds were
not lying in wait for the hurrylng man
and the lady with baby and bundles
there might be fewer hurt feelings and
sprained ankles.
If the boys who smoke cigarettes
could see themselves few years from
now seeking employment, finding de-
sirable doors barred against them,
perhaps they would deny themselves
an indulgence brief and deadly.
II one might take a walk about
town without having the ear panied
by profanity and vnlgarity, if would
seem like foretaste OF the millen-
MUM.

tions will be the greatest ever held.
The popularity Of the Bloomsbury
Fair extends through many States. Its
exhibits are always large and varied
and its races the best that can be seen
IN this section of the state. All the
railroads will sell excursion tickets at
reduced rates, thus giving everyone an
opportunity, at little cost to attend
the big show. Following is the race

Fair and Bazaar.

The Ladies Auxiliary of the Y. M.
c. A will conduct Bazaar in the
building Nov. 1924, the proceeds
to apply on the payment of the in
debtedness on the property. All who
are familiar with the work of the asso-
citation since the time 1t moved into
the present home, are more than con-
vinced that the purchase of this prop
erty was a wise move. With the ex-
ception of about $500 the building
was admirably adapted to the work.
The attendance at the building and
interest taken IN the work by the
young men prove that the location is
a most desirable one, and the work
that is being done in the interest of
the young men of Bloomsbury, COM
mends the project to the generous
consideration of our people.
The Board OF Directors believe that
most strenuous efforts should be made
to reduce the indebtedness as fast as
possible, and keep at it until it is
wholly free from financial incumbrance.
The Ladies Auxiliary are always ready
to share large part OF the burden
and it is hoped they will meet with
even more generous response at the
hands of our citizens than that of last
year, which was certainly noble. Keep
in mind the date of the Bazaar, Nov.
I0-24.

STATE NEWS IN BRIEF.

"A splinter IN her arm caused the
death, Monday night, Of Mrs. Annie
r. Quigley, Of Lancaster. Two weeks
ago she slipped and fell, running the
splinter in her forearm. Several days
later tetanus developed, and she died
in terrible agony.
Franklin county's peach crop is
SO large that peaches can scarcely be
given away. Although the fruit is
selling IN the cities to-day at a high
price, the returns made to the ship.
pers by the commission merchants is
hardly enough to pay the freight; In
fact, one shipper sent car load to a
western city and when he received his
check 1t was less than his freight and
baskets had cost him.
John Larricn, 81 years old, a
miser, was found dead IN his hovel at
Weatherly, Monday afternoon. In his
pocket was found a roll of bank notes
amounting to over two thousand dol
lars. The Coroner's jury at the in
quest found that the old man came to
his death through starvation. 1t is
said he owned properties in Allentown
worth $50, 900.
1t is said that agents for the
Standard Oil Company have recently
been quietly at work in Fox township,
Sullivan County, and have large
amount of territory under lease. 1t is
confidently expected that wells will
be drilled in this new field, and it is
hoped that some gushers will be struck.
1t is little south and east of the
famous Gaines field, and ever since
the exploitation of that has begun,
oil men have been quietly at work in
every direction.
Rich copper ore has been found
at New Albany, Bradford County,
about fourteen miles from Towanda.
Several private parties have become
interested in the project and have
leased about 500 acres OF land and
have commenced work on the Hib-
bard farm, where fine ore has been
discovered. The leases cover an area
OF which about three miles is ore bed.
The first opening is only few feet in
the hill side, where an eight foot vein
has been uncovered.

The Farm Journal" is unlike
any other paper ; for one thing it
prints no quack medical advertise
ments; for another it takes five
year subscriptions and gets the pa
per to its subscribers the full time,
if they are anywhere on this planet,
even if they move two or three
times if they die their heirs get
it. Now we are going to combine
with the Farm Journal" and send
the COLUMBIAN one year and the
"Farm Journal" nearly five years
(remainder of 1900, and all OF 1901,

Clerk and Carrier Examination Sept. &c

The Uuited States Civil Service
Commission announces that on Sep
tember 90, 1900, an examination vii
be held in this city for the positions
of clerk and carrier in the post-olfice
service.
This examination is held for the
ieason that the Post. t.Office Depart
ment has stated that at all Offices
where no substitute force is maintained
such a force will be appointed as a
result OF this examination, SO that
whenever vacancies occur in the regu-
lar force there will be no delay in fill
ing the same. 1t is the intention OF
the Department as far as possible to
establish substitute force at every
office equal to about IS Per cent Of
the lumber of regular employees.
This examination will be held at
all classified postoffices throughout
the country, except those of the first
class, and result of the same, in
addition to the substitute appoint
ments, vacancies which now exist in
the regular force will be filled.
The nature of the examination is
test of practical, general intelligence,
and of adaptability IN postoffice work.
The age limitations for this examina-
tion are as follows:
Clerk, not less than IS years.
Carrier, between 2I and 40 years.
Applicants for mail clerk and car
rier must have the medical certificate
in Form IoI executed. Applicants
for carrier must be at least S #. 4 ins.
in height, and weigh not less than 1a5
pounds. Female applicants are not
required to have this certificate exc
cuted.
This examination offers an excel
lent opportunity for entering the Fed
eral service to bright, energetic young
persons, who are not afraid of hard
work, and the Commission hopes that
a sufficient number of intelligent, act
i've persons, will present themselves
for this examination. 1t may be sta
ted that there is a wider field for ad-
vancement upon merit in the Federal
service than In many private employ
menis, not only by promotion in the
same Office, but by transfer to other
parts OF the service.
This examination is open to all cit
liens of the United States who may
desire to enter the service, and who
comply with the requirements. All
such persons are invited to apply, but
attention is invited to the fact that
from those certified the Department
usually selects for appointment eligi-
bles who are residents of the district
in which the vacancies exist. Appli-
cants will be examined, graded and
certified with entire impartiality and
wholly without regard to any consid.
Grafton, save their ability, as shown
by the grade attained in the examina-
ton.
For application blank Form 1917,
full instructions, specimen examina-
tlon questions, and information rela-
tive to the duties and salaries of the
different positions, and as to whether
there are any existing vacancies in
this office, applications should be
made to the undersigned.
Applications should be promptly
filed with the secretary of the local
board, and inquiry should be made of
him as TO the date set for the close of
the receipt of applications.

The greatest act of cruelty to
dumb animals which has ever come
under our observation was COM
mitted at Reading a few days ago
when a youngster tied two cows
tails together. He then urged the
COWS to pull in opposite directions,
with the result that the tail Of one
of them was completely torn from
its socket. Such an inhuman act
should not be given any leniency,
he should be made to suffer the full
penalty of the law.
