Crushed to Death.

George Chudleigh of Philadel-
phia. was crushed beneath an elc-
vator in one of the buildings of the
Schuylkill Arsenal at Grays' Ferry
on Monday. He was alone at the
time Of the accident and was kept
pinned to the floor until discovered
by a fellow workmen, who with the
assistance of several others extricat-
ed him. He was conveyed hastily to
the Polytechnic Hospital, where it
was found that the skull had been
fractured. He had also suffered in
ternal injuries and died without re-
gaining consciousness. Mr.. Chud-
leigh was fifty-eight years of age.
He was the father of Mrs. DR.. H.
A. Reese of town. She and her

TIE ARMY OANTEEN.
Adjutant General Corbin Will Strongly Rec
ommend its Re. establishment.

The annual report of Adjutant
General Corbin, to be made public
shortly, contains strong recommen.
dation for the re-es,ablshmen of the
army canteen. Special attention is
called to the reports of the general
officers of the army showing the effect
of the present system on the health
and morals of the soldiers. These
reports will indicate an increased
number of desertons, and more men
were tried for drunkenness in the alb.
sence OF the canteen than when it
was IN existence. Believing that the
evil of drunkenness can be lessened by
the sale of beer and light wines in the
post exchange, Gep. Corbln urges the
re-estabishment of the canteen.
Secretary Root has not yet begun
the preparation of his annual report,
but in view of the almost unanimous
opinion of army officers in favor Of
the canteen, he believes he should
call the attention of Congress to the
question with view to having that
bo iy pass such legislation as is neces-
sary to again permit the regulation of
such sales by the war department.

FREIGHT TRAFFIC VERY HEAVY
Rush Of Business on Catawissa Branch oI
the Reading Road.

There is a big rush of freight
business on all the railroads due to
the shipment of coal from the an
thracite regions in addition to the
ordinary traffic. Even during the
strike the roads had about as much
freight as could be handled, but
now that the coal trade is added
every facility is being taxed to the
utmost to get the numerous trains
over the roads. Anthracite coal is
given the preference and every city
and town is using up the supply as
fast as it can be turned out at the
mines.
The Catawissa branch of the
Philadelphia & Reading road, from
East Mahanoy Junction to West
Milton, is all important part of the
Reading system and is handling a
large number of trains daily. Ii
connects the northern and southern
parts OF the main line and is a
short route from Philadelphia,
Williamsport and the northwest.
Practically all of the traffic of the
Beech Creek branch of the New
York Central goes south via the
Catawissa branch.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED by
local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness is caused by an IN
famed condition Of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian tube. When
this tube gets infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed deafness
is the result, and unless the infamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infiamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.
We viii give one hundred dollars
for any case Of deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halrs
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

Giving Short Weight,

The Shamokin authorities have
discovered that great many of the
people who attend market at that
place are guilty of giving short weight
and are preparing to give the matter
a complete investigation. This same
trouble has existed for long time in
the Milton market, and although
several parties have been caught al
the business of cheating their custo.
mers, beyond confscating their scales
no punishment has been inflicted.
The man or woman who knowingly
sells short weight is thief and should
be punished like any other criminal.
There have been no such charges
in the Bloomsbury market, in fact,
very few articles are sold by weight.

Machine Drills Square Holes.

A machine which will drill square
holes has at last been made. An
Englishman named Edward Segitz
is the inventor, and his apparatus
is said to have solved a problem
heretofore regarded as being about
as unaccomplishable as the mathe-
matical impossibility of squaring
the circle. Segitz's machine is a
three winged drill, semi-round,
which yet cuts four straight edges
in its rotary motion. That is, the
motion appears to the eye to be
rotary, but there is, of course, a
manoeuvre in the triple fange
which produces the square cut, trl-
angular, or other angular holes,
with automatic regularity and ma
chine speed.

People are learning that con-

1t is neglected consumption
that is so often incurable.
At the faintest suspicion of
consumption get a bottle of

The use Of SCOTS Emulsion
at once, has, in thousands Of
cases, turned the balance in
favor of health.
Neglected consumption does

stitution of the United States OF
Colombia at the time he drafted his
bill but he would take no heed. Co.
lombia offers a lease for 100 years
with the privilege OF renewal for
another 100 years, but that is not ac-
cording to the canal bill and there
must be either change in the Co.
lomblan constitution or further Con-
OCCASIONAL legislation here, an end
which the opponents of any canal de-
sire, as it will give an opportunity for
postponing further action, in the in
terests Of the railroads, 1t may be
said that the United States can force
Colombia to accept Its terms or else
build the canal by way of Costa Rica
Nicaragua but in the latter instance
the same obstacle would be met.
None of the countries can barter
away a part of their territory.

A Susquehanna woman suspected
that her husband was in the habit of
kissing the hired girl, resolved to
detect him in the act. On Saturday
night she saw him pass quietly into
the kitchen clouds. The hired girl
was out, and the kitchen blinds were
down. The jealous wife took few
matches in her hand, hastily placing
a shawl over her head, as the hired
girl often did, entered the back door
and Immediately she was seized and
kissed and embraced in an ardent
manner. With heart almost burst
ing, the wife prepared to administer
a terrible rebuke to the faithless
spouse and tearing herself from his
fond embrace, struck a match and
stood face to face with-the hired
man. She was much ahead of the
hi. ed girl, but she had no business
in interfering with the little pleas
ures of her husband. The hired girl
has certainly kiss coming.

has found that the title to the Panama
canal property is perfectly clear and
now the government will bend its
energies to the negotiation of treaty
with Columbia. Such treaty is
made extremely difficult by provisions
in the canal bill undoubtedly inserted
for that purpose. The bill provides
for absolute and perpetual sovereignty
over the zones of land through which
the canal will pass. This, according

WASHINGTON.
From our Regular Correspondent.

Washington, November 3, 1909.
From Omaha comes a startling
story of forgery. 1t is alleged that
Representative Mercer has been re.
printing pages of the Congressional
Record after altering the proceedings
to suit his own ends and has been
sending them out under his frank. 1t
is stated that Mercer is sending out
an alleged excerpt Of the Record
which represents that he voted for a
bill providing for government control
of public utility corporations, which
bill was never discussed in the House
but was referred 10 the Committee on
Judiciary and there killed by the re-
publican majority. AS Mr.. Mercer is
known to be a particular friend of the
Secretary of Agriculture his alleged
conduct reflects seriously on Mr.. Will
son and to some extent on the admin
istration proper.
XXX
The first formal meeting of the an
thracite Coal Strike Commission,
which took place Monday week, was
widely heralded as demonstrating the
success of the Presidents arbitration
policy but as a matter of fact, although
the meeting only dealt with preIlmi-
naries, there was much in it which
might be taken to portend failure.
The most serious development was
the discovery that there was a large
number Of operators in the anthracite
region who were not party to the
agreement to arbitrate and who were
not represented at the meeting. AS
they own large number of collieries
it will be practically impossible to ask
the railway presidents to observe any
decision of the Commission not OBJ
served by their competitors and there
tore the whole success of the COM
missions work is threatened. 1t is
even claimed that the railway pres-
dents have purposely misled the Presi-
dent in regard to the proportion OF
collleries which they operate, with a
view of being able to ask him, when
the Commission shall have rendered
its findings, to compel all the opera
tors to observe them. That, the
President would have no power TO do
and because it would be unfair to
compel one set OF operators to observe
regulations not compulsory with their
competitors, they would escape the
fullhllment of their promise to abide
by the findings of the Commission
Mr.. Mitchell said that he had under
stood that all the operators were party
to the agreement, but that Pres. Baer
emphatically denied. He also stated
that while no objection would be
made to Mr.. Mitche's representing
the miners as whole he must not be
regarded as the president of the
miners union. Mr.. Truesdale, of the
d. L. & w. Ry., said that he hoped
to effect a settlement of practically all
the differences between himself and
his employees through a committee to
be appointed by the latter and that
only differences which could not be so
reconciled would be brought to the
attention of the Commission. By
this means it was hoped to supplant
Mitchell by committee ofthe miners
selection, and thus eliminate him from
the proceedings in so far as the ID. l..
& w. was concerned, at least.
