Affairs at Fishtown.

There was a slight lull in operations at
Fishtown this morning and the activity
was not so pronounced as that of yester-
day. Receipts had fallen off perceptibly
although the packers had anticipated an
increase. Prices ranged as follows
Roe shad $40 a $50 per hundred, buck
s25 a $50, and herring $3.50 SO per
thousand. Cutters are still scarce and
packers complain of the fact that it is
difficult to keep them at work. In the

A man and a boy, both riding bicycles,
collided on King street. between st.
Asaph and Pitt, about noon today. Tie
youth escaped injury. but the man was
not so fortunate, although he was not
seriously hurt The Gazette has several
times called attention to the fact that
sooner or later a serious accident will
occur to bicyclists on King street now
that the roadway is smooth. There i.
more or less ''scorching' with no fxct

HORRIBLE TRAGEDY
Enacted in the Vicinity of
Stony Ridge.

What is believed to be one of the
most deliberate murders recorded in
the criminology of this county was
brought to the notice of the officials
this morning, when neighbors dis
covered the dead body of George Um-
sele, at the side of the dying form of
John Carr, in a farm house near
Stony Ridge says the News Bee.
Carr rents the Conrad farm, where
the MURDER is alleged to have taken
place. He employed Umsele some
weeks ago and together they worked
the farm. Both were bachelors and
lived alone in the farm house.
Friday last a stranger appeared. AS
harvest hands are scarce he was
quickly employed by Carr and went to
work
Yesterday he was selected to do the
cooking, and went to the farm house
to prepare dinner in the middle of the
| forenoon.
Carr and Umsele then came in and
ate, Some hours later DR.. Price, of
Stony Ridge, was summoned to the
farm and arriving he found Carr and
Umsele suffering from poisoning.
He left medicine and returned to
Stony Ridge.
Last night neighbors say that the
stranger farm hand returned to the
farm house, which he had left after
dinner, and armed with a shotgun,
terrified the vicinity, ransacking the
farm house.
Afraid to venture near the neighbor.
hood the people waited until this
morning, when they entered the farm
house to find Umsele dead. and beside
him, Carr, who was dying.
Both bore indications of having
been poisoned.
1t is believed that the stranger
whose name is not known, took none,
that was in the house and left. How
much he got is not known. Sheriff
Reece and Coroner st. John are now
on the scene

President Roosevelt is righteously
indignant over the manner in which
the press has been making comment
of his children. The President who
is evidently very sensible father,
says: 81 am trying to bring up my
children in healthy, American way,
and do not think it is doing them
any good to see their names continu-
ally in the newspapers. want them
to grow up just like other children,
'ith no more self-consciousness and
more conceit. Simply because the
Ter happens to be president for a
tile while is no reason for them tc
be treated differently than others oi
their age"

When we look at the beautiful sol
diers monument on the hill overlook
ing the river we are reminded of the
fact that to our dear departed friend,
Frank Powell, more than to any other
one person, is due the credit of the
erection of that beautiful memorial
to our soldier dead. From the begin
ming to the close of the week he was
the strongest, most active, and with
out him we believe the plan would
have failed. While the monument is
erected in honor of the soldiers, its
erection is monument to the energy
of our deceased fellow citizen.

Since the Postoffice scandal has
arisen in Washington, we believe it
would be good thing for the govern
ment to turn out every person who has
held an appointive Office for term of
eight years as rapidly as good people
can be worked into their places. The
civil service fallacy only serves to
keep men in Office for years, and gives
a dishonest man an opportunity to
work his schemes and cover them up
No man is entitled to hold an APP
pointive Office for more than eight
ears. Let the good things be passed
c,und among the good people, and
se,e are just as good men on the
ls3ile as those who are in.

of the large number of concerns
which come to their hands every year
to assess, and which must be com

to assess, not to speak of railroad
property, express property, pipe

this board and the properties it values
for taxation, a large part of the pres
