CORY. Pa. Jan. THE New Year
marks a notable event in the storm his
tory OF the Keystone State. Never in the
history OF the State has such terrific
blizzard ragged within her borders as that
which has been driving everything before

Snow has fallen to great depth in this
end Of the State in other years. but never
accompanied by such a driving. biting
gale and such cold weather.
Along the shore of Lake Erie the wind
hurls the snow into valleys and hollow
places with incredible and almost urbe-
lievable speed. \ few minutes after
plow has passed the tracks are again filed
with the swirlnE snow.

big drift near Silver Creek since 10 o'clock
yesterday morning, blocking the road nor.s

most as soon as it is shovelcd by the track
laborers.
The Lake Shore and Nickel Plate fare lit
tie better. only through trains being NOV
ed. The Erie has kept its lines practically
clear by means of the rotary snow plow.

Take care of the blood and the body
Will take care OF itself II is the blood
which builds the body. The blood in
deed rs the body. A sound body must
be based on sound blood.
1t is one of the peculiar properties of
DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
that 1t eliminates from the blood the ef-
fete and poisonous matter which is antay-
onistic to health. 1t also gives to the
blood those elements which are necessary
to its strength and vitality. Thus by
the Use of Golden Medical Discovery y
purity of blood and power of body have
been attained by thousands of sickly and
scrofulous men and women.
No other medicine purifies the blood
and builds the body as does the Dis
covery." Accept no substitute.
"It gives me much pleasure to testify to the
merits of DIR. Piercc's Golden Medical Discov-
cry" writes Miss Annie Wells, Of -Fergusson's

A NEW COAL RAILROAD.
| Construction of the Erie and Wyom-
ing Valley VIII Soon Begin.

SCRANTON. Pa, Jan. 1.-George T.
Si..de, lately division superintendent on the
Great Northern Railroad. today became
General Manager of the~E. lie and wyoming
Valley Railroad. The appointment was
made by President George p. Smith. and is
in anticipation OF the large increase in
business to follow the building of the new
line from I.ackawaxcn to Kingston. n. Y,
which is to connect the Erie and Wyoming
Valley system with tidewater by way of the
abandoned Delaware and Hudson Canal
route.
The Erie and Wyoming Company, in
connection with nearly everyone of th'
individual coal operators in the Lackawan-
ma and Wyoming regions. is also actively
at work building branch lines to connect
with the main road. Former Chief En-
gineer Archibald. OF the Lackawanna, rep
resents the operators in this work. Chief
Engineer 4. ID. Blaekington. Of the Erie
and Wyoming Valley, says everything along
the entire new line and the branches is now
ready for the construction contracts, which
will shortly be awarded. and the work will
be pushed to early completion, as there is
very little grading necessary to the laying
OF rails.

Jones going in the fourth round, hut the
gong saved the Washington lad. and for
three rounds thereafter he hammered Ham,
ilton in merciless fashion. A left swing on
the wind finally settled Jones.
Friday night at Syracuse Jones put Kid
Goulette out in one and one-half minutes
OF fighting. Goulette had defeated Hamil
ton previously; and Jones victory over the
former had influenced betting in his favor
today. His blows lacked the steam that
was behind Hemilton's vicious swings.

JERSEY CITY, Jan. Theodore Brun-

the Hudson county Jail for killing Nicholas
Schmidt in the latter's saloon, Irving Street
and Summit Avenue, Jersey City, on
Christmas.
II is expected that the coroner's jury will
exonerate him on the ground that he acted
in self-defence.
He visited Schmidts saloon Christmas
night and stayed until ii was time to close
up. Schmidt roughly ordered him to get
out. Brunnert claims that before he could
obey the order the saloon keeper began
pounding him with n club.
There vas nobody near to help him. and
in self defence he drew his revolver and
shot Schmidt. Brunnert left for home
thinking he had merely wounded the
saloon keeper. He was Mortified when the
police later on arrested him for murder.

In speaking today of the rumored sale Of

whom were several members Of the naval

business proposition.
