NEW FIRE GRIEF ELECTED.
p. B. Reddens Elected ChiCf of the Fire
Department by a Large Majority.

A very lively but good natured cleo
tion was conducted by the fire CON-
panies comprising the Bloomsbury Fire
Department Monday evening. Though
the hremen hustled around in the
interest of their favorite candidates,
the best of feeling prevailed and the
election passed off very orderly.
The candidates were P. B Heddens
and John Lewis, both members of the
Friendship company, their connection
with the company dating back; the
former twenty and the latter twenty
eight years. From the moment of the
nomination Mr.. Hcddens was the
favorite, and his vote OF o5 out of r53,
is fitting testimonial of the high es-
TEEN in which he is held by his brother
fremen, and exceeded his most san
guine hopes. Mr.. Heddens is an en-
thusiastic fireman whose whole heart
and soul is in the work, and we feel
safe in predicting that the needs of the
department will be carefully looked
after and his duties faithfully perform
ed at all times.
The other officers elected were
Isaiah Oil of the Rescue Company,
assistant chief; Boyd Maize of the
Winona Company, second assistant
chief and E. B. Allison of the Liberty
Company, third assistant chief.
The members OF the Election Board
were: John R. Townsend, President
A. M. Wintersteen, Friendship; James
Kashner, Rescue; Kiefer Warner,
Winona George Sterner, Good Will
John S. Gersting, Liberty.

Holiday Advertising,

The holidays are close at hand and
the fact is very well appreciated by the
Bloomsburg merchants as the adver-
tisng columns OF the CoLUMIAN amply
attest. Advertising takes many forms
but the most effective and the cheap
est advertising, considered in the light
of the returns, is newspaper sdvertls-
ing, provided the medium reaches the
people. The merchants of Blooms
burg believe that the COLUMBIAN
circulates among the people who buy,
and they are not mistaken. Business
men do not advertise as matter of
favor, but as a matter of business, and
they know that when they advertise in
the COLUMBIAN they get business.

WILLIAM s. M0YBR.

William S. Meyer died at his
home on Market street, on Satur-
day December IS, at half past two
o'clock, from the effects of a para.
'lytic stroke with which he was
seized on Monday night previous.
He was the youngest son of the
late John r. Meyer, and was born
May 25th, 1916. He clerked in
his father's drug store in his
younger days, and later in 1868, he
formed partnership with his
brothers, Lucas N. and John l..
and from all unpretentious begin
ming the business of the firm rapid
ly grew and prospered until it has
reached the proportions of one of
the largest wholesale drug houses
in the state. The wise counsels
and business sagacity os the de-
ceased contributed in no small
measure to this success. He was
clear headed, cool and cautious
business man and this together with
his genial disposition made him
many friends, and placed him i'll
many positions of trust, and made
him one Of the most prominent men
Of Bloomsbury. He was President
Of the Farmers National Bank
President of the newly organized
Irondale Electric Light & Power
Co.; trustee Of the Normal School,
and of the Presbyterian Church; a
director of the Bloomsbury Steam
Heating Co., the White Milling
Co., and the Bloomsbury Silk Mill.
He was also one of the promoters
of the Columbia & Montour Tele-
phone Co., and director until its
consolidation with the United Co.
He was a member of the Board of
Trade, and was interested in all
that pertained to the welfare of
the town. His means and his in
fluence were always ready to help
give an impetus to any movement
that meant we'll for the community.
In March 1901, his wife died sud
denly and this was great shock to
him. For the last six months he
has not been we'll and it is said
that the cause of his death was all
attack of acute Bright's disease.
He was himself fearful of paralysis,
and stated just after the stroke, that
he had been afraid of it for week
past, as he had not had full control
of his left leg.
One daughter Miss Martha, sur
wives. He also leaves sister,
Mrs. Sarah Quick, and four
brothers, Charles A., Albert, Lucas
N. and John l..
The funeral was largely attended
on Tuesday at one O'Clock. The
officers and employees of al the
banks attended in body and the
banks were closed from to 3. The
floral tributes were very beautiful
and profuse. Rev. DR.. Hemingway
conducted the services.
Mr. Meyer was a useful and
popular citizen, and his place will
be hard to fill.
