Frank Thomas, of Fast Brady, n
brakeman on the Low Grade Division Of

yards at Driftwood last Wednesday
afternoon. Mr.. Thomas was out to flag
train No. 10l, due at Driftwood at $40
p. m, and while waiting for the passen-
ger train Thomas sat down on rail and
fell asleep and never awoke TO conscious
ness again. Mike Montgomery, engi-
neer, and Charles A. Stephenson, fire
man, both of West Reynoldsville, saw
the man as the train shot around a
curve, but too late to stop the train.
The engineer gave the alarm whistle
and the fireman rang the bell, but Mr..
Thomas heard them not and the iron
monster hurled the sleeping man about
forty feet into the air. The man was
picked up unconscious and remained in
that condition until eight o'clock that
evening when he died. His body was
taken to East Brady Friday morning
and buried The deceased leaves wife

MORE TROLLEY LINE TALK.
Franchise Asked for in this Borough
Held Over for Sixty Days.

At the regular monthly meeting Of
the Reynoldsville town council last even
ing Lawyer s. NJ. McCreight presented
an application from T. l.. Snyder, OF
Clearfeld, for franchise to build n
trolley line through this borough.
Burgess G. Mitchell was at the meeting
and he stated that Kipp, Kiser & Co.
ard several other gentlemen who built
the trolley line to Eleanora, wanted to
extend their line to Reynoldsville and
requested the council not to be In a
hurry about granting a franchise to
any other party or company. After dis
cussing the matter council voted not to
grant franchise for sixty days.
Mr.. Snyder was in Reynoldsville last
week and we understand that he repre-
sents company Of capitalists who pro-
pose to build trolley line to Rathmel
Soldier, Sykesyille, Wishaw and Flea
nora II franchise is granted them In
this borough. They already have the
franchise for the balance OF the pro-
posed line. With two different parties
or companies seeking franchise we
will certainly get a trolley line, u they
mean business, unless some complica-
tions arise. There Is one thing certain
and that is that we need the trolley line

"David Copperheld.

In speaking Of Mr.. Willard d. Howe,
the impersonator, in David Copper
field" the Pittston Gazette says: Stir
ring and pathetic bits from that MASTER
piece of fiction, David Copperfeld,
were presented by him, woven together
so cleverly as to furnish a continuous
story Of absorbing Interest, yet not too
extended or tedious for an evenings
entertainment. The characters of the
story seem particularly adapted to Mr..
Howe's talents and his vivid delineation
OF Fisherman Peggotty, Steerforth
Heep and Micawber impressed Al
with his wonderful skill. Pas ages
grave and gay, laundering and mild,
were equally effective, and the changes
from one to another were made with a
rapidity that was remarkable. Alto
gether the entertainment was delight
full. More than this, it was helpful
bringing out In the most effective
manner possible the triumph of good
over the forces OF iniquity. We pre-
dict for Mr. Howe unbounded success In

WHAT CARNEGIE SAID.

Arriving In England, He Predicts
 Eventual Downfall For Kingdom.
 LONDON, May 9.-Andrew Carnegie has arrived in London. and he prompt ly proceeded to console Great Britain on the subject of the shipping combine by saying there was no cause for alarm.
 ITO combine the shipping traffic" ," said MT. Carnegie, ''is a big order. There is a free right of way on the ocean, and the tramp steamers are all ways with us. The merger may give regular daily sailings to passengers which would be advantageous. I am not in the navigation syndicate, having retired from business and reformed, so I cannot advise you as to the exact character and bearing of the combina- ton, but in my opinion the combine is purely a matter of money making.
 sThere is no question of patriotism in trade. It does not care fig for a flag. It is dividends that count. Of course every citizen worth a cent wishes his own country to be first in everything, and a peaceful industrial victory is the only genuine one. Vic tory through war generally costs more than it is worth.
 If Great Britain continues her cost ly wars for shadowy ascendency in dis tant parts and the United States de- velops her industrial army, there can only be one result-Great Britain will have the shadow and the United States the substance
 After a reference to the booming of the steel combine, saying that the United States was too prosperous to have any surplus stocks of steel for shipment abroad and referring to the development of other lands, MT. Car negie reiterated his belief that Great Britain in the future would form a state in the American federation.
 .'You must some day." he said, turn your face to your kin beyond the sea. You are not to be European power in the future, but are to join with your own race in the west.
 Fortunately the feeling toward the old home was never so cordial as now, and race patriotism has taken root"
