LATRoBE, Pa, December 1.-THE
Rev. George Lose was killed at Pat
erson, n. j. While standing en- ra-
diator he grasped an electric student

re eeved.

attachments, who had acceptably filed
the pulpits of various churches, al
though he had not completed his stu
dies and was student at Drew Theo-
logical Seminary of Paterson, n. j. at
the time OF his death.
The young man mentiened in the
above dispatch was nephew of Mrs.

YuIgarity and Profanity.

For some time past the Connells-
vile Courier has been making cru
SADIE against the use of bad language.
In recent issue it says:
There are times in mans life
when, like the Hon. Peter Stirling,
nothing emphasizes the meaning quite
as we'll as robust oath, but those
occasions are rare.
The use OF profane language is a
habit, and senseless habit too.
Every man should try to break him
self of it, not only because we are told
it is bad, but more especially because
1t sounds silly.
But the use of vulgar language on
the streets, in the presence and hear
ing of ladies and children, is an Of
fence against common deceney and
good morals; and it ought to be pun
ished by arrest, fine and imprison-
ment Of the offending parties until
they learn how to behave, in public

MC'DERMOTT PRESIDENT.
Union Gas and Water Co. in
Hands of Local People.

Stock of Pennsylyanians Bought by
Elkins, oturgiss and Others ReOr-
ganization of Company-Great I'M
provements in Gas and Water Plants
Shortage of Gas.
A reorganization Of the Union Gas
and Water Company was effected last
week ]. w. Rowland, former presi
dent of the company and L. b. Greg
CRY former secretary have sold their
stock to local citizens who now own
the business entirely. New officers
have been elected but Mr.. e. M.
Grant is continued as treasurer and
manager of the business, which he so
success fully directed under the former
organization.
The following is given out by the
company In regard to the change of
ownership and Improvements being
made:
The people living in Penna., have
sold their stock IN the Union Gas and
Water Co., to Morgantown people, of
whom Senator Elkins and Hon.
George G. Sturgiss are the principals.
This makes the company entirely
local concern-Jos. III. McDermott is
the new President, Davis Elkins Vice
Prest, Geo. Z Sturgiss Secy and E.
NJ Grant Treas. and Manager. The
o stock holders were very much dis
satisfied with the new franchise grant
ed the company and have been desir-
Gus of disposing Of their stock ever
since-We can now see that the pro-
visions prohibiting meters to domes-
tic consumers was great mistake,
for if meters were now in use, there
would be enough gas saved to run two
factories like the Marilla Giassworks.
The company has added several
thousand acres of territory to its hold
ings and the coming year will see it
thoroughly tested. They have spent
$l50000 this year in improving the
gas and water plants, but have been
much delayed and hampered by diff
Guilty in getting material Pipe,
pumps, engines, etc which were or
dered in July and promised to be de-
livered in September are only just
arriving, making everything late in
completing plans, besides adding
greatly to the cost on account of bad
W sather.
The purchase of this stock by local
people has preserved the gas for Nor
gantown, foy if it had not been done
the plant would have been sold to
another gas company who would
naturally have taken the gas TO the
highest market. Everybody should
now aid in saving gas and it is to
BE- hoped that the city fathers will
aid this by repeating the clause 10 the
franchise in regard to hetering gas TO
consumers. Ii is the only fair way to
sell gas.

IRON CITY co. LOSES.

Decision Handed Down at Charleston.

Injunction Against Iron City Oil and
Gas Company Sustained and E. ID.
Stewart Continued as Receiver.
The Supreme Court has handed
down its decision in the case of the
Iron City Oil & Gas Company. This
company had applied for dissolu
tion of the INDUCTION issued against
1T by Judge Mason, and for the dis
missal OF the temporary receiver
Edgar B. Stewart, who was appoint
ed by Judge Mason last winter.
The decision of the Supreme Court
sustains Judge Mason IN every point,
and Mr.. Stewart is continued as re
ceiyer and the injunction is sustain
cd.
This decision puts the Iron City
Company effectually out of business
at least till the case comes up on
its merits in the Circuit Court 1t
is thought by the representatives of
stockholders in the Union Gas and
Water Company, who secured the
III uuCti0H d. dtb5b TUE li0H 1ttY
Company that not much can now be
made out of the case now in the cir
cult court by the Iron City people,
as most of the points involved have
already been passed upon by Judge
Mason.
1t will be remembered that j. G..
Frazer and others bought block OF
stock in the Iron City Company,
which they considered majority
and attempted a reorganization.
The old company had issued a block
of new stock, held a seperate meet.
ing and elected their own officers.
Whereupon the injunction was APP
piled for by Mr.. Frazer and others
and Edgar b. Stewart appointed
temporary receiver.
The real motive ia the transaction
Is the attempt of the Union Gas and
Water Company to get control Of the
Iron City Co. and their gas supply
and stop competition in rates.

TWO CENTS
MULES DROWNED
Hare and Jamison Lose Their
Fine Team In River.

Drive In River ut the Mharf Saturday
Evening Struggle Under Barge
John Hare who was Driving Made
Narrow Escape-Wagon Recovered
Sunday Morning.
John Hare drove his team of fine
mules into the MonongaheIa River
at the wharf Saturday evening, to
wash them off, and both mules were
drowned. Mr.. Hare himself made
a narrow escape with his life.
1t had been the custom of AIR.
Hare to drive his team into the riv-
er every evening and wash the mud
off the mules after hard days work
on the streets and muddy suburban
roads. Saturday evening he drove
in as usual. The river was very
high, and barge was moored at the
wharf, floating up near the shore.
The mules stumbled in the deep
water near the barge, and fell strug-
Cling under the boat. The water
was so swift, and the weight of the
wagon attached to the mules such
an impeachment that they could not
extricate themselves, and both were
drowned.
Mr.. Hare who was in the wagon
made narrow escape by leaping in
to the barge from the.wagon when he
found he was helpless TO rescue the
mules from their perilous situation.
It was about dark and nothing could
be done toward recovering the team
Saturday night.
Sunday morning Mr.. Hare, Mr..
Jamison and Joe Manear went out
in a boat, aud after a long and fruit
less search in the cold, finally caught
the team with a grab hook by drag
ging the river bed a short distance
below the wharf A chain was at
tached to the neck of one of the dead
mules and by the assistance of about
fifty men who had gathered at the
wharf. and stone cable the team
was recovered thus saving the loss
OF wagon and harness.
The loss OF the mules Is heavy
one however, as they made fine
strong team. The owners had been
offered $3.50 for them earlier in the
season ard they were, probably
worth about that much row.

AN OLD STUDENT
Tells How Hiek Got His Name-Re-
calls an old Incident.

The editor of the Clarksburg
Mail is an old student and is quite
well known not only here but
throughout the state. He tells the
following story in the last issue of
his paper:
An article in one of the Morgan
town papers reports that the medi-
cal students at the University cele
bratcd the arrival of the first "Hiek"
of the year by banquet The ca
daver was the body of an asylum pa
tient. The subject for dissection at
Morgantown are always called
Hicks and the dissection room is
designated as the "Hick House" :.
We do not know of the same word
being used at any other college and
think its use is purely local
We were attending the Universe
ty when the first subject for the in
stitution arrived. 1t was the body
Of sailor, which had been purchas-
ed in Philadelphia. 1t had been
embalmed and was placed in one of
the upstairs rooms in the new build
ing. OF course it attracted a good
deal of interest and all went to see
it. One of the professors upon
viewing the body said "!Ilc Jacet'
Dock Dancer, the old janitor, was
present and thought that he had
spoken the dead mans name, and
always referred 70 the body after
ward as "Hica Jacket" The bows
soon got hold of it and cut it to
"Old Hick,'' and ever since "Hick"
has been the name of every cadavar
brought to the college.
