first time in the history of the insti-

mel. They are young couple, and
have not been married very long, IN
fact. they had not yet gone to house
keeping bu. were boarding with some
friends in Mt. Carmel, while they
were getting their home IN readiness.
Kitch is "a miner and worked at Lo-
Gust Spring colliery at Locust Gap,
where he was injured on Thursday
last by lump Of coal which fell and
struck him ou the head fracturlng his
skull. He was taken to the hospital
the same day and his wife had been
making daily trips TO the institution
until late Tuesday afternoon, when
she too was taken there in the am.
bulance with her skull fractured. She
started from Mt. Carmel shortly after
dinner to walk to Locust Gap to gel
her husbands pay at the Locust
Spring colliery Office, and when she
was near Locust Gap she was struck
by d P. & r. freight train and injured
as stated.
The surgeons operated upon her al
2:3o o'clock Friday, ard while heI
condition is somewhat critical the,
hope to save her life.
Kitch was almost overcome wher
he learned that his wife was at tn,
hospital and insisted upon being takeI
to her at once. His request was com
piled with and an affecting scene fol
lowed.

GULI0K'S FATE STILL PENDING.
Prisoners Sanity will be Determined by The
Board Appointed by the New Governor.

In all probability the fate OF John
Guljck, the Klinesgrove murderer,
will rest with the new State Board OF
Pardons.
Several months ago J. Simpson
Kline and George B. Reimensnyder,
OF Sunbury, the gentlemen who have
SO ably looked after the interests OF
the prisoner since his incarceration
in the Northumberland county Jail,
made application to the State Pardon
Board to have the penalty of death re-
voked and an order issued providing
Tor the removal of Gullck to an insane
asylum. The board took the papers in
the case and instructed the attorneys
they would investigate the mental con-
dltlon of the prisoner and send for
them when they were ready. 1t was
understood also that the state would
send an expert allenist TO Sunbury to
examine Gulick. Up to this time the
attorneys have received no word.
Thursday the Board of Pardons held
its last meeting and as the prisoners
counsel have received no information
regarding the application it is taken
for granted nothing was done. The
new board, under Governor Penny
packer, is now in power and the case
will 60 over until its organization
which may be several months.

Our representatives in the
Legislature should be made to see
the necessity of the $27 900 appro-
priation for the Hospital at Foun-
tain Springs. Its present accom-
modations are totally inadequate to
meet the demands, and the new
building which is in course of con-
struction, and in a half finished
state can not be com pleted without
the appropriation. The institution
now has us inmates, and a num-
Der of these owing to the lack of
rooms and beds are compelled to
lie OH cots on the floor. A Blooms
burg man had occasion last week
to visit the Hospital, and his heart
was touched with pity as he view
ed the manned and crippled lying
about on the floor. The attention
of our representatives should be call
ed to this matter and at once.

Agricultural Society Meets.
There Was Absolutely no Contests on and
the Election of Officers Was Matter
of Only Few Minutes.
Treasurer Browns Statement Shows a Bal.
ance in the Treasury Of $5Ii.64.

The annual meeting Of the Agri-
cultural Society was held in the
Court House Saturday afternoon.
There was not the interest mani
tested that has characterized some
of the meetings of the past, and
opposition to any ore of the officers
for reelection was not even sug-
gested. Neither was the attend
lnce large. There were less than
wo hundred in the Court House
and many were not members of the
society.
The meeting was called to order
by President A. c. Greasy. H. V.
White was elected chairman, Harry
S. Barton and John Scott secre-
taries, c. c. Yetter reading clerk
and c. B. Lutz and Wilson Greasy
teliers.
Mr.. White took the chair and
thanked the members tor the honor
The election of officers was the first
thing on the program. Arthur c.
Greasy was elected president; F. P.
Hagenbuch, Elisha Ringrose, Hen
ry Deighmiller and Emery d.
Hagenbuch, vice presidents; J. c..
Brown, treasurer; w. B. Allen,
librarian; A. N. Yost Secretary;
W. ]. Hidlay. A. R. Henrie and
A. V. Kressler, executive COM
mittee; ]. B. Delong, John Scott
and H. c. Hess, auditors and H.
V. White, member of the State
Board.
1t will be noticed that there is
but single change in the board OF
management, that being A. v.
Kressler.
c. B. Ent's name appeared on
the ticket for member of the execu-
tive committee, but in view of the
fact that he will be a candidate for
Sheriff this fall he thought best to
Withdraw.
H. V. White was reelected as a
member of the Stat. Board Of Agri-
culture. In accepting the Office he
made few remarks. He said the
meetings of the Board occur semi
yearly, at which time subjects are
discussed that are of interest to
the localities from which each
member comes. The Office has not
been a very desirable one owing to
the fact that the members have to
pay their own expenses.
There is bill before the Legis-
lature providing for the payment of
such expenses, but for some reason
or other it is not passed. Last year
he gave a week OF his time to ar
ranging for the county institutes
and after travelling sixty-seven
miles was obliged to pay $I2.S4 out
OF his pocket. Upon motion of A.
z. Schoch it was decided that the
expenses incident to the Office not
covered by the state will be paid by
the society.
Mr.. White is of the opinion thai
it would be wise to call the annua
meeting at 10 O'Clock a. m. insteac
of ? p. m. as is now the custom
The morning session could then be
given to matters of interest to the
farmers and the afternoon to the
election Of officers and other busi
ness.
