Arthur Pewterbaugh, employed in
P. & E. yard at Ridgway, as brakeman
met with an awful accident last Thurs
day morning, both legs being crushed.
He was taken to R;dgway's hospital,
where his legs were amputated. Little
hope was entertained for the young
mans life at last report received from
Ridgway.
Mr.. w. w. Arnold, who makes his
home with his son, N. T. Arnold, of
this place, had an apoplectic stroke on
Friday last, and has since been quite
low. He is quite an old man and the
doctor thinks it possible for him to live
some time yet-though it is not suppos.
ed he will ever be 30 we'll gain.-Ridg-
way Advocate.
The following unidentified paragraph
floating around in the joke columns de-
serves a different classification: A kiss
is peculiar proposition. OF no use to
one, yet absolute bliss to two. The
small boy gets it for nothing, the young
man has to steal it, and the old man has
to buy it. The baby's right, the lovers
privilege, the hyprocrite's mask. To
young girl faith, to married woman
hope, and to an old maid charity
Nashville Banner.
In last weeks Austin Autograph
Editor Caskey proceeded to demolish
the editor of this journal with an Sin
spiration," giving his opinion of Cam
eron county politics. Having utterly
failed to ''graft'' Potter county politics
he evidently feels that he must make a
desperate effort to 'do his bidding''
across the line. Young man, just keep
your eye on the deal and when the con-
test in this county is decided you will
feel nightly ashamed ofthe company
you have kept politically. We agree
with friend Caskey that election con-
tests SOME TIMES have two sides, but in
this case it is different. See?

nust Not Engage In Other Business

Hust Not Engage In Other Business.
The Pennsylvania railroad has is-
sued an order that its employees must
not be engaged in any other business
while working for the company. A
number of conductors were interested
in restaurants along the line ofthe road,
some of them operated coal yards,
others had groceries: one on an eastern
division was the silent partner in a
saloon. In fact, there was hardly any
branch of business but some one work
ing for the Pennsylvania, in the train
service particularly, had an interesG in
it. The position of the railroad com
pany is that the time of the employees
all belongs to the railroad, and in the
train service especially, if trainmen
have outside business cares on the
minds, they are apt to neglect the
affairs of the company.
