Are Dangerous,

Andrew Palko, driver boy In the

accident while at his work about 3
o'clock last evening, sustaining in-
juries that have reduced him to a
condition that Is dangerous.
Palko had his hip dislocated and a
hole torn in his thigh that left a wound
that exposes the bone. The shock was
severe and the result may be fatal.
The lad was driving his mule with a
car attached, when another car was let
loose and came flying down the track.
Before he could get out of harms way
he was struck and knocked down. The
runaway car passed over his body,
squeezing and crushing his lower body,
though no bones were broken. The
shock. however, was so great that he
may not rally
Palko was taken to the home of his
father, Andrew Palko, where DR.. ID. l..
Bailey was summoned to care for him.

TO CHANGE NovITIATE.
Novices for Convent Life Will Be Re.
ceived Hereafter in Scranton.

The novitiate of the Sisters of the I'M
maculate Heart will be changed soon,
perhaps in August from st. Rose con-
vent in this city to the new seminary
of Mt, st. Mary, in Scranton, which is
almost complete. For over quarter of
Il century, the candidates for convent
life have been received at st. Rose,
which gave quite distinction to the
convent.
1t is likely that the boarding school
here will be enlarged after the removal
of the novitiate, There will be consid-
cradle regret over the change, but
which is in the order of things follow
