Kodol. She grew better at once, and
now, at the age of 76, eats anything
she wants, remarking that she fears
no bad effects as she has her bottle
of Kodol handy" Don't waste time
doctoring symptoms. Go after the

your health will be good. Kodol

The proprietors of Foley's Honey
and Tar do not advertise this as a
'sure cure for consumption" They
do not claim it will cure this dread
complaint in advanced cases, but do
positively assert that it will cure in
the earlier stages and never fails to
give comfort and relief in the worst
cases. Foley's Honey and Tar is
without doubt the greatest throat
and lung remedy. Refuse substitutes.

ROCK ISLAND REGALIA COMPANY
Institution Whose Popularity is Rapidly
Spreading.


There is no firm whose name is
more favorably known throughout
this section than that of the Rock
Island Regalia company, manufac-
turers of all kinds of uniforms, robes,
badges, banners, swords, sword belts,
belts and caps. y speciality is made
of banner designs for labor unions,
and the labor organizations will
make no mistake in giving this de-
serving company their most hearty
support and cooperation. This com
pany has maintained most favor
able attitude toward labor and the
union forces are never slow in rec
ognizing their friends and will aid
in every way possible to make this
company still greater success.
Their product is certainly one de-
serving of most liberal patronage by
the unions and citizens of our cities
and the entire country. At this par
ticular time when we have opportun-
ity to place their names before thous-
ands of working men, we take adj
vantage of the opportunity to place
the name of the Rock Island Regalia
COMPANY where it well deserves to
be placed-foremost among our lead
ing concerns who are always to be
counted upon as friends of conserva-
tive organized labor. As Labor day
is drawing near we advise all unions
considering the purchase of banners
and badges to take the matter up at
once as we know the Rock Island
Regalia company has already sold
several banners for Labor day.-Tri-

BURGLARSATW WORK
They Enter the Peterson and

Upper End.
NEARLY CAUGHT AT FORMER PLACE
Make Getaway at Officers Arrival
Attempt to Break in
POIiceman's Home.

Burglars were active about the city
last night, two business houses being
broken into and ransacked and an
attempt being made to enter pri-
waite dwelling. In one place the
thieves were surprised by the police
and made their escape followed by
cold lead.
Shortly after , o'clock this morn
ing the police received hurry-up
call to Peterson's shoe store near the
foot of Elm street on Fifth avenue.
Burglars had been discovered in the
store and it was thought they could
be captured red-handed. Officers
Kell and Bergsten went to the place
in the wagon and the former went to
the rear of the building. AS he pass
ed into the blind alley he heard
someone running away and flashed
his light in time to see the form of a
man making off in the darkness.

Carry on Cash Drawer.

The other place entered was the
drug store of j. NJ. Keim on Thirty
eighth street and Seventh avenue.
Here the operations of the thieves
were not moIested and they took
their time. Entrance was effected by
prying open the rear door with a
pointed instrument. The cash draw
err was taken out of the building and
was found by Officer Moody this
morning block away. y little cash
was taken, but the stock was not
heavily drawn upon.

Officer shoots.

He gave chase and fired twice at the
fellow, but the latter ran like deer
and escaped. In doing so he passed
near Officer Kell, who was compelled
TO remain in the wagon to hold the
horses, and who had come off so has
tily as to leave his gun at the sta
ton.
+ An examination showed that the
store had been very thoroughly ran
sacked, but nothing of value is be-
lieved to have been taken. That
there were two of the robbers is
known from the fact that CONVEX
Sation was heard between them and
two umbrellas were found in the
building. where they had left them
in their haste TO get away. From the
fact that the pair carried umbrellas
ii is believed they were professional
cracksmen and not ordinary hoboes.

PETER Van HORN

After a distressing illness from
that dread disease, cancer, Peter
Van Horn of Long Meadow died on
Saturday forenoon last aged 81 years
on the 18th of last September. Thus
passes to his rest citizen Of most
excellent qualities aud one who was
highly esteemed by his ueighbors.
He was industrious in every sense of
the word; quiet, unobtrusive, and
careful to keep a aloof from any So
cial complications.
Deceased was born in Sussex coun-
ty, New Jersey, but about fifty years
ago came to this part of Pike county,
where he bought a tract Of land and
cleared nice farm, and by assiduous
industry and assisted by an excellent
wife made a good home and accumu-
lated a sufficient competence to place
himself and family above want in
his declining years.
He married Miss Sarah M. Camp
bell, who, with FIVE daughters, Jen-
ME, wife Of E. NJ. Earl, Emma, wife
Of Dimmick Quick of Mill Rift, Pa,
Ella Van Gorden of Raymondskill,
Anna, wife of w. r. struble Of Mil
ford, Minnie, wife Of Frank Stewart,
at home, and three sons, Henry and
Daniel Of Conashaugh, and Hugh Of
Matamoras, survive him.

Drowned in the River.

Leroy, the twelve year-old son Of
Edwin NJ Kimball and wife of Mat.
amoras, accidentally slipped in the
ice while playing along the river
at Matamoras last Saturday after
noon and was swept away by the
current. No one saw the occurrence
but it was assumed from appear
.ances where it was supposed he fell
in that he had approached too near
and slipped on a cake of ice. His
father, who is an Erie trainman and
was at the western end of the road
when the accident happened, came
east as rapidly as the condition Of
affairs would permit and reached
home late Monday night. Tuesday
morning he started in search of the
body and found it in a kill near the
head of Bells island It was lying
on rise of ground the head down
stream and legs caught by hooked
tree. There were some abrasions on
the forehead and one boot was gone.
The remains, after being viewed by
the coroner, who concluded their
was no reason for an inquest, were
inferred in Laurel Grove cemetery

MISS MARY swEBzY.

Miss Swezy died at Walker Lake
Feby. 9th at 6.3O p. m. of spinal
meningitis. Her death was a great
surprise and shock to her many
friends as it was known to but few
that she was seriously ill., The de-
ceased was twenty-one years and
three days old. The youngest of
eight children she was the first called
by death. Her life was a bright ex-
ample and showed that she had
chosen that good part which cannot
be taken away The funeral was
held at the school house at 2 p. m.
on Sunday. The brothers and sisters
were all present except Charles, who
enlisted three years ago and after
serving in Cuba and the Philippines
is now in California. Her father, a
veteran Of the Civil war, died sud
denly two years ago. Mary's un-
timely death has cast a gloom over
the neighborhood but nowhere will
the blow be felt as in the home where
she was so constant and helpful, and
by that faithful mother whose life has
been one Of devotion to her family.
The funeral sermon was preached
by the Rev. Rhodes of BarryviIle.

State to Rebuild Bridges.

The legislature in 1895 passed an
act authorizing the commonwealth
to rebuild county bridges over nagi-
gable rivers and other streams
which have been declared public
highways by an act Of assembly
where such bridges have been de-
stroyed by flood, fire or other cas-
ualty. It might be well for the
proper officials to enquire whether
the Wallenpaupao is not a public
highway.
