DEMoCRATIC COUNTY CONVENTION.


Chairman Scouten called the con-
vention to order. John G. Wright
was elected president; J. w. Flynn
and Ransom Thrasher, vice-presl-
dents; John Finan, Geo. Hartzie
and Frank Magargle, secretaries.
After appointment of committee on
resolutions the convention waited.
The committee finally reported the
usual class, of resolutions and the
convention proceeded to business.
L. r. Gavitt of LapOrte twp, was
nominated for Treasurer. Peter
Yonkin and Thos. Gahan both OF
Cherry twp, for County Commits
sioners. Christian Caseman OF
Elkland, and James Sweeney OF
Lopez for County Auditors. Edw.
Rogers of Elkland, Member OF
Assembly. j. Henry Cochran OF
Williamsport, for state senate; Z.
II. Dickerman of Milton for con-
gress, and Alexander Billmeyel
fer the short term congressman.
Everything was plain sailing ex-
cept for the nomination of commits
sioners.
The first ballot showed EOnkin
29!, Gahan %, Bender l9!, Laird
13 and Thrasher IL. Then by
some sort of manipulation not
understood at the time by a large
number of delegates two additional
votes were given to Ionkin, Gahan,
and Bender, giving Ionkin 81 J,
Gahan 27, Bender 2l4 f instead
of doing this had the convention
dropped the lowest man as provid-
ed for in their rules. the second
hoice on another ballot would
most likely have nominated Ben
der instead of Gahan. But Cherry
has eight delegates and proposes to
take care of itself.
The convention then called upon
Messrs Dickerman and Rogers who
both responded to the call.
Mr.. Chas II. Dickerman had Il
typewriter speech prepared which
assured the people present that
Columbia county would give Patti
son good majority, which arous-
ed wild enthusiasm.
Hon. f. G. Rogers had well
prepared speech ready in which he
endeavored to explain why he had
supported measures against his
party caucus decisions, or some
thing on that strain, and also quot
ed Henry Clay in support of his
actions in the last legislature. We
did not know who it was controlled
his vote on some of the legislation
but never supposed it way Henry.
Atty. A. Walsh apologized for
the absence of the Hon. Henry
Cochran, after which the conven-
adjourned.

Dark Side of Life in New York
City" All who fail to attend this
lecture will miss rare treat.
DR.. Whalen, a lecturer OF note
who is at the Eagles Mere Chau-
tauqua, gave an illustrated lecture
upon "The Life of Christ" " in the
Baptist church at this place Mon
day evening. 1t was an excellent
and instructive lecture and ably
delivered.
The romantic novel written by
Ellery p. Ingham, entitled cat The
Point of the Sword" has come from
the press and is being largely read
and eagerly sought for at this place.
The book is on sale at this Office for

view of the book Will be published

After making attacks upon the
honor and integrity of Judge kraus
Judge Line, Judge Durham and
Judge Metzgar, Scouten continues
his course by an attack on Judge
Mitchell. We merely ventured to
say that Judge Mitchell had, at his
request, granted him a new trial
and tried his case fairly and
honestly. This he calls trash, y
and characterizes it as ''absolutely
false" If Judge Mitchell had not
intended to tIeat Scouten honestly
and fairly, why did he grant a new
trial? He surely did not have to.
That he made an unintentional er-
rOr in one of the numerous rulings
he was called upon to make is now
decided, but that he was dishonest
and unfair is not true. The Super
ior Court does not impute unfair
ness to him. If Mr.. Scouten will
calmly consider the numerous pros
ecutions he has had in court during
the term of Judge Sittser, and since,
he will be forced to the conclusion
that the dishonesty is nearer home
that ON the bench.
In response to the call for a meet
ing of those interested in forming
cemetery association, a large
number of citizens met in the court
room last Saturday evening. The
meeting was organized by the cleo
ton of Hon. +. M. Dunham as

Mullen is 25 years old. He has been in
the hospital for two days now. Before that
he was for one day In the Emergency hos
pital at Coney Island. He was injured at
the island on Tuesday.
Mullen had been strolling along the
board walk Of a bathing pavilion. near
Brighton Beach, In the evening. Some
thing shoreward attracted his attention
and he turned his face toward It. He
continued to walk and did not notice that
he was at the edge Of the boarded path
until he toppled over. He struck on the
hard packed beach, fifteen feet below, his
head striking the sand first. The fall
broke HE back at the sixth or seventh
veretebrae, and after a second Of fearful
pain he became unconscious. He lay on the
beach until morning. when he was found by
a policeman and removed to the Emer'
gency hospital.
There yesterday the faculty Of speech
was in part restored, but except for tho

HATS ron NEW York HORSES.
Thousands Of sOmbreros for Hot
weather Use Given Away.

with. the coming Of hot weather, says the
| New York Times, the local Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty TO Animals is pre-
pairing to protect the horses OF New York
from the heat. According to Superintend-
emit Hankinson at the general %oflces, at
Madison square and Twenty fifth street.
the society will accomplish this by prepar-
ing free shower baths and by giving away
several thousand straw hats arranged to
at horses.
There will be two places for the distribu-
ton Of the hats and for the bath service
at the general once and at the ambul-
ance station in East Twenty-second street,
near Lexington avenue. Mr.. Hankinson
says that both the baths and hats will be
absolutely at the disposal OF all corners,
and II any horse suffers 1t will be the fault
Of It's driver. Next year the society hopes
to have stations all over the city.
The spray bath will be formed by at
taehing a reducer TO the nearest fire
hydrant with a short piece of hose and a
nozzle to throw the water Thus exhausted
horses may in a few minutes be refreshed,
II the driver is passing in the neighborhood
OF the stations.
The hats will be specially prepared by a
horse outftter In Union Souare. following
q pattern designed by Mr.. Hankinson. The
hat, known as the horse sombrero, will be
made Of %eoarsely woven straw, about six
teen inches in diameter. The hat an ordi-
nary fiat brim, and. with the exception Of
the large holes for the horses ears, has
the appearance of an ordinary hat.
Mr.. Hankinson, whose business It is to
find anything that will improve the condi-
tion Of the horse, says that he has long
been looking for a means OF relieving 1t
during the heated term, and finally hit
upon the shower bath and the straw hat.
He says he got the idea of the hat from
Paris, France, where nearly all horses.
especially those for dray purposes. are
fitted out. with straw shades. This fashion
came into vogue In Paris about four years
ago, SOM witty driver having originated
the fashion, It is said, by putting his own
enormous hat on his horses head, Each
year since then has seen an increase of the
number of hats. until In summer II Is the
exception to gee a horse without his "yoko.'
The charter of Paris, however, has not re-
NAMED content with the simple straw hat,
but has it woven into unusual shapes and
proportions, and often decorates II with
flowers and bits Of colored ribbons.

He Fought in the famous seventeenth

From the beginning to the end Of the
civil war none fought more v~aliantly
than the famous Seventeenth Indiana
volunteers. The story Of their battles,
their privations and their victories is a
long but interesting one.
In company B.. o. this regiment. was ELI
Fisher, now a resident of Jet, Woods Co..
Okla. who has a fund OF entertaining
"reminiscences Of his experiences in bivouac
and battle. To a reporter the other day he
related the f~ollowing:

my company, l began to suffer with various
complaints brought on by hardship and ex-
posture. l had hemorrhages OF the kidneys,
palpatation Of the heart and at times
would bloat from stomach trouble. My
lungs were also affected. From my suffer-
ing and misery l became nervous and NY
nerves finally went all to pieces.

nothing which would bring me relief. /

1855 l was mustered out and then I tried
other doctors. At various times Eve diff
ferent physicians treated me end I took
many hiuub VI meulClne out nothing did
me any good. From 1887 until 1890 1 was
confined to my bed most OF the time and my
case seemed, hopeless.
But In 1890 l read in a newspaper Of
how an Iowa man, suffering from the same
illness In general as l had, was cured by
Or, Williams Pink Pills for Pale People.
l decided to see what they would do for
me and began. taking them. l used three
boxes OF the pills before experiencing relief,
but after that my recovery was rapid. In
two months / felt like a new man both IN
body and mind. 1 took them for four
months and was perfectly cured.
Il have recommended DR., williams
Pink Pills for Pale People many times. / do
so because l know from personal experience
that they have wonderful power to relieve
and cure the sick"

1T had really been at times very anxious
concerning my mothers condition, but we
noticed that after using Postum for a shor,
time, she felt so much better than she did
prior to it's use, and had little trouble with
her heart and no sick stomach; that the
headaches were not so frequent, and heI

Accident Occurs Near GIoversviiIe,

Resort.

UTICA, N. Y, July Son an electric
car near Gloversyille last night there was
a collision between two cars crowded with
passengers, by, which fifteen persons were
killed and twenty-nine injured more or less
seriously.
For a distance Of four miles north OF
Glovtrsyille the Mountain Lake railway, an
electric railroad, connects Gloversville with
a popular resort as a picnic place.
. Last night the cars were filled with peo-
pie coming from the grounds. AT about
10 80 at 4 place two miles above Glovers-
VILE there was a collision between two
cars. They came together headon with
terrific velocity. 80;
As II was a holiday there were many bus
mess men among those on the car. 1t is
impossible to get the names Of all at pres
ent.
City Recorder Frank c. Wood of Glovers-
Vile had his back broken and Is in a very
critical condition.
Loses Control of Car.
The Mountain Lake railway tracks fol-
low the side OF the mountain, the grade be-
ing about 1000 feet in four miles.
Coming down the incline the motorman
Of one ear carrying about seventy people
lost control Of the car, which In q short
distance acquired a frishtful velocity. Then
it met q car ascending the mountain, and
also carrying about seventy passengers
The impact was terrific. but for a few
moments neither car left the track, the
ascent Of the one being overcome by the
rush OF the other and for a distance OF
several hundred feet they went on down
the incline. Then they left the rails and
the dead and wounded were hurled to-
gether in an inextricable mass.
At $3.50 o'clock ten bodies, mansled be-
yond recognition. were brought into Glow
e~rsville, where the injured were also being
taken. The latter are being cared for al
the Lattamer hospital. 1t will be impos
sible for several hours to compile a list
Of the dead and injured. OF the former
it is thought there are about fifteen and Of
the latter about twenty-five or thirty.
Among the victims there are more wo'

here tonight from what is regarded as an

operators as the time for resuming opera
tions at one or more collieries near
Wilkesbarre with experienced n~onunoln
men collected from the various mines in

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, July 4.-The con-
ference committees representing the min

Inent, which will be submitted to the va
rious local organizations Monday for rati-
i~lcation. The conference adjourned to meet
tomorrow morning. when 1t is expected the
