Well Known Horseman.

William M. Hughes, of Hazleton,
mas been in failing health for the
past year. He has been sufferer
from neuralgia for long time. Some
ten years ago he submitted to an
operation and for a time was much
relieved, but of late the disease has
again taken hold, causing him much
trouble and continued pain. In 1874
he was one Of the promoters of the
Hazleton Race Track Association, in
which he took much interest and
over which track many races took
place. Mr.. Hughes was the owner OF
the famous pacing mare Little Mary,
that won nearly all the races she took
part in in this and other cities. She
was sorrel mare OF the klndest dis
position and favorite among the
horsemen from 1873 to 1876. He
sold her, much against his inclination,
but the big price was the reason
After he parted with her she became
famous on some of the Grand Circui,
race tracks, WilkeS. Barre Ree0rd.

Looked Upon as a Formidable Aggregation

That the Normal School foot ball
team is regarded as pretty strong
proposition is shown by the following
item which we take from the Mt
Carmel Daily NeaVS.
"The opponents of the High School
team next Saturday will be the strong
Bloomsburg Normal School team.
This team is not team of boys who
are just learning the rudiments of the
game but rather, team of men who
have one OF the best coaches In the
state, outside of tie large college
elevens. They ran up Sc points
against Orangeville and played an
1912 game with the strong Halle.
ton team. 1t will be a battle royal
and undoubtedly will be the hardest
game seen on the local grounds this
year."

This Man is a Wonder.
Is Buried Alive for Twenty -Four Hours.
Will Repeat the Experiment.

William w. Kretz, president of the
Reading Society of Occult Science,
who was buried alive for twenty-four
hours while in hypnotic state, is con-
sldering plan to repeat his expert
ment, but expects, next time, to re-
main underground for thirty-six or
forty-eight hours.
Persons who witnessed his recent
performance on Mt. Penn think he
can accomplish the undertaking.
Kretz refuses to reveal his new
plans, except to say that, as before,
he will be hypnotzed, placed in a
burial case, and covered with six feet
of earth.
As the authorities forbade the ex-
pertinent within the city limits on the
former occasion, Kretz is silent about
the place where the second burial will
take place. There will be reliable
witnesses, however, to testify to the
genuineness of the feat.

Aged Resident Called From Earth.

Centre township is mourning the
loss of good citizen in the person
OF David Z. Remaly, whose death
occurred at his home near Foundry
vile, Sunday afternoon. He had re-
sided in that township for many
years and died enjoying the respect
and esteem of all who knew him.
The cause of his death was a COM
plication of diseases, in connection
with a breaking down of the system,
superinduced in measure, no doubt,
by advanced age, he being about IS
years old. He was farmer and fol-
lowed that occupation all his life.
The surviving family consists of a
wife, two daughters and one soa The
former is quite seriously i'll, with little
hopes of recovery. The funeral took
place Tuesday afternoon.

A fair-sized audience gathered at
the Opera House on Tuesday even
ing to listen to Hon. Henry b.
Clifford, whose subject was Cop
per Fortunes, or the manner in
which the Bonanza Kings made
their fortunes. The object of the
address was to interest people in
the Queen Of Arizona Copper Co. +,

tive. Diagrams and pictures were
thrown upon a screen by stereop-
ticon showing different mines, their
productions, values, etc. Mr..
Clifford is entirely conversant with
his subject and talks in a pleasing
manner. He referred several times
to the Green Consolidated Copper
Co. as one of the great companies,
and he also gave some good advice
by telling the holders of any min
ing stocks not to get frightened
every time there is ductuation in
the market.

an exciting time on our principal
