mother Of his little 1-year old son. Mrs.
Craven had been i'll but short time.
Hopes were entertained for her recov-
cry until few hours before her death
when those about her bedside knew
she was fast approaching the Great
Unknown"
Mrs. Flora Craven was the daughter
OF Josiah and Fanny Shoemaker, OF
Hormtown. She was born June 30th,
1878, at the place where her parents
now live. Her girlhood was spent there.
She was consistent christian and a
member OF the Chestnut Grove Christian
Endeavor Society. She was married to
Harry Craven July 18th, 1899, and up
to the time of her death lived on farm
near her girlhood home. a father,
mother and an only brother, now in
Kansas, together with husband and
only son, are left to mourn her early
death. ~

All arrangements were made by a

light picnic in the grove near H. L.
Hoke's, below town, Friday night. In
the evening time the baskets were pack
ed with good things and about thirty
five young people hied themselves to
the picnic ground, but the moon hid be-
hind clouds and would not peep out at
the young people, therefore, the moon
light part was a izzle, but the young
people were out for good time and
they did not propose to be disappointed
because the silvery moon was conspicu-
ous by its absence, and they assembled
at H. l.. Hoke's large residence and
spent a delightful evening. Harvey
participated in the affair, especially in

definite action In the matter. II has
not been decided, II AN engine is bought,
whether TO raise the money by subscrip-
tion or have the borough buy the en-
gine. The reason for wanting to buy
an engine is because the pressure In

ly as IL used to be. The water company
will test the line this afternoon aud II
the pressure Is sufficient with full reser-
voir TO give the desired protection the
