ROUND THE REGION.

Proceedings have been begun in a
case that will prove one OF the most in
teresting ever tried in Schuylkill coun-
ty. Mrs. Elizabeth Burmeister sues to
recover $4,000 damages from the bor-
ough of Ashland for the loss OF her hus-
band, who died from smallpox. The
grounds upon which the plaintiff seeks
to recover are that the borough neg
lected its duty in never having organiz-
ed a Board of HEALTH as required by
law, and thereby permitted tho spread
Of smallpox to the extent that her hus-
band was stricken with the disease.
II. d. Meyer, OF Hazleton, will prob
ably reap fortune as result of his in
genuity in devising a process to salt
peanuts while the bean remains in the
shell. A Philadelphia wholesale dealer
in peanuts has offered S10,o for the
exclusive use of the process, which has
just been patented. Heretofore it has
been found necessary to shell the pea
nuts before sailing the bean. Mr.. Moy
er's patent obviates this.
Patrick McGovern, John Malone,
Fred Hehman, John McAvoy, Hugh
Gouden and Edward Breheny, consti-
tutiug the school board of Mt. Carmel,
have been ousted by court. The GUST
ed board was deadocked over the cleo
tion Of teacher and the schools have not
been reopened on account of the in
ability of the directors to agree. A new
board was immediately appointed by
the court.
All the machinsts at the Sheldon
Axle Works, Wilkesbarre, went on strike
today because, as it is alleged, the com
pany violated its agreement with them
and tried to compel them to work ten
hours day instead of nine. This
agreement was made on May 20, when
general strike of machinists was order
ed. Yesterday notices were posted
ordering the men to work ten hours
day, without increase in pay.
When Isaac Gould, colored, was made
foreman Of No. 10 mine, OF the Pennsyl-
yania Coal Company, in Pittston, the
men employed in the mine, numbering
in the neighborhood of 400, decided that
they would not work under him, and so
informed the officials OF the company.
The company returned Gould to his old
position OF docking boss.

The police are making an investiga-

the drowning of an infant by its mother
in the Susquehanna river near Plymouth.
On Wednesday a well-dressed woman,
now believed to be prominent in social
circles, drove to the river and threw the
babe into the water. She was seen by
Watchman Krackenfeltz at the Ply
mouth bridge. Divers are trying to find
the child's body.
The seven girl strikers at the Ber-

remitted the penalty under promise of
good behavior

THIRTY YEARS ENGAGED.

Toledo, o., Jan. G.-One OF the
strangest Of ron rccs eliminated in .
marriage here yesterday. The groom In
Philip W. Breidt, ~ years OF age. His
bride, Mary RAIL- is only one year be-
hind him. and they are the oldest peo-
pie ever married in the county, as far
as the records show VINO had not pre-
viously entered matrimony.
For nearly forty years the bride has
patiently waited for the performance
OF the marriage. for which n license
was issued in 1869. The couple were IT,
censed to wed thirty-eight years ago BY
+. A. Jones, the first probate Judge II
the county. Just why the marriage
was postponed so long will never be
known, probably, but a remark made
by the groom yesterday may throw
some light on 1t. Breidt said II am
going to do the right thing by her
now"
The aged groom came to the court
house with the old license. He said IL
authorized him to wed Mary Rail- and
that now he wanted to marry his choice
OF many years ago. Everything was
regular and the license was all right.
but the situation rather staggered tho
Court, and SO new license was issue1
and the marriage followed.

She went to the kitchen to finish the

Bowser and rubbed against ais leg and
purred in sympathy. The room seemed
to stif1e him, and he got up and walked
softly down the hall and out on the
step, followed by the cat. and they sat
down side by side on the step and
gazed into vacancy. A tramp halted at

Then followed a powerful silence,
broken at last by his going down to
the cellar to nail board on the coal
bin. He had just started to drive
nail when the motherinlaw appeared
on the stairs and said
Drop that hammer like hot potato!
Don't you know that every blow goes
through your poor wifes head with
bang? You've got about as much

Mr. Bowser sulked for few minutes
and then walked up stairs. Finding
Mrs. Bowser asleep, he thought it
would be a good thing to overhaul his
dresser. He had scarcely pulled out
one of the drawers when he discovered
sock with a hole in the heel Indig
nation overcame him on the instant,
and he fiourished the sock on high and
exclaimed:
so this is the way my house is run,
is it! Here's a sock that 1 bought new
two weeks ago and never had on my
foot. and yet some one has worn hole
in the heel"
Isis it you?" asked Mrs. Bowser,
as she woke up.
Yes; it is me, and what about this

The mother-in-law appeared at that
moment. and, pointing to the stairs,
she said
You and your holy sock get out O
this as fast as you cant
Mr.. Bowser got. Something in her
he feared-some element of mastery
but as they returned to the sitting
room he shook off the feeling and
hoarsely whispered:
There is a train at 10 o'clock in the
morning, You can go by that!
IF do, it will be as a corpse." she
grimly replied. ''Sit down there! Now,
then. l want to tell you a few things.
You are a bulldoZing husband. and it
would do you good to be hit across the
neck with a crowbar. You think you
know it all, and you are bound to have
your way over everybody. No other
woman in this world except your wife
would live with you two hours, and
she's a fool for doing it. You never
come home except to kick about some
thing, and If was your wife I'd scald
you. You talk about waste and ex-
travagance and yet you'd buy sand
