New Poor OyerSeer.
Edward Welsh, Appointed to
Succeed William Harris, in
Centralia- -Conyngham
District.
Much Interest Shown.

Court was in session on Monday
with all the judges present. The
business was done up in quick
order, scarcely an honr being taken
up in its transaction. The most
interesting feature Of the session
was the appointment of a poor
overseer, to succeed the late Will
lam Harris, in the Contradictions
yngham District. There were four
applicants for the place, and accom-
paning each name was petition
numerously signed by citizens of
the district. Following are the
names OF these candidates. David
H. Walsh, ]. O'Donnell, William
Harris Jr. and Edward Welsh.
The Court deliberated for fifteen or
twenty minutes when announce
ment was made that Edward Welsh
had been unanimously chosen,
The result occasioned some little
surprise as it was pretty generally
believed that either Harris who is
a son Of the deceased overseer, or
O'Donnell, who appeared to be
the choice of the ring would be
named. The appointment, how
ever is considered an excellent one,
Mr.. Welsh has never been dele
gate to Bloomsbury. He is a good,
straightforward man, and enjoys
the respect and esteem of his fellow
men, which is the best recommend
alton a man can have. The court
is to be commended tor its action
in the matter.
Application of Rohr McHenry
Distilling Company for transfer of
distiller's license from Rohr Nc
Henry & Son, was granted.
Petition OF I. J. Hover, admins
traitor cf the estate Of Sarah Gear
hart, late Of MifflinvillA, for sale Of
real estate. Petition refused.
The Court then announced the
appointment of Emanuel Levan as
Tax Collector for Conyngham
township, where there had been no
election to the Office last spring.
CANAL EQUITY CASE CONTINUED.
Equity proceedings in the case of
certain citizens of the Town Of
Bloomsbury against said town, for
alleged nuisance arising out of de.
posits of mater in the abandoned
Pennsylvania Canal. The plaintiffs
were represented by Judge Herring
and District Attorney Duy, while
Hon. Fred Ikeler had charge Of
the defense. Plaintiffs put in re-
plication to defendants answer.
Mr.. Ikeler claimed this to be a new
allegation, which the defense was
not ready to meet, for which reason
the Court ordered the continuance
of the hearing.

Prof. Morrison feels that Glenn SOD
College is doing the work that is so
much needed. In a class of sixty
this year, thirty of the young men
had received positions before they
got their diplomas, and some of these
young men are now drawing larger
salaries than their Professors who
taught them.
These facts go to prove that the
man with the practical, tecbnicn!
training is the one who is in demand
and will receive the pay.

Farmers Institute in Jonesvilie
Col. Newman gave the farmers edyice
about the preparation Of the soil and
cultivation of several important
crops. lie said:
The sol! should receive the deep
plowing in the fall when the land is
dry, and corn and cotton ought not
to be plowed deeper than two inches
after the plant gets twelve inches
high, This mode of ploughing cuts
off the grass and does not disturbe
the roots Of the plant.
One acre Of well prepared Bermuda
grass is worth any two Of alfalfa
or blue grass anywhere in the
United States.
Fall cabbage may be planted any
time from September until November
but the bud should rest on the
ground thus protecting the stem
from the cold and cut worms. The
worms would then cut the leaves and
not the stems" Those are few of
the suggestions offered by this vet

Not Altogether Bad.

"If I'd been there I'd have gone bail for him. I saw him do a thing once that showed he had a big heart and the instincts of a gentleman"
 "What you talking about?' mumbled the man with a straw in his mouth.
 The other read the news item that had attracted his attention and then went on to tell the story of what had warmed him to the swindler. 1 was on the way to the Highland Park races last summer and just ahead ot me sat two gayly-dressed women, and next to them gray-haired, kindly-faced old woman.

Many are the pretexts resort ed to by men anxious to escape jury service. An unwilling juror, when called upon to serve in a trial term, part W, of the Su- preme Court this week, said:
 "Your Honor, I must ask to be excused. l do not approve of the injustice of justice admins tered in these courts"
 "Are you an anarchist" in quired the trial justice.
 ''No, but I do not believe in some of the laws of thls State, they are outrageous, there is too much injustice"
 "That will do," exclaimed the justice, sternly. 'You are a disgrace to citizenship. You are unit for service-you are ex- cused."
 As the man left the courtroom he smiled and remarked: "The old man was severe, but it work ed all right. IN. Y. Sun.

Some Fancifui Facts.

Not long ago Missouri editor announced that just for one issue he would tell the truth, naked and unvarnished. Here are . few items from the issue: John Bonin, the laziest mer- chant in town, made 6 trip to Relivine yesterday.
 Married-Miss Sylva Rhodes to Jas. Carnahan, last Saturday evening at the Baptist parson- age. The bride is 8 very ordin- ary girl who doesn't know any more than a rabbit about cook ing and never helped her poor mother three days of her life. She is not beauty by any means and has a gait like a fat duck. The groom is we'll known here, an up-to-date loafer, has been living off the old folks all his life and don't amount to much no how. They will have s- hard life while they live together and the Times hastens to extend absolutely no congratulations, for we don't believe any good can come from such union.
 John Doyle, our groceryman, is doing a poor business. His store is dirty and noxiously odor- ferrous. He doesn't advertise nor treat people courteously. How can he expect to do much?
 Rev. Styx preached Sunday night on charity" The sermon was punk. If the reverend gen. tleman would live up a little closer to what he breaches he'd have a bigger congregation. The editor of the Times attend ed just because it's the proper thing. He would rather stay at home and read a good book.
 Dave Sonkey died last Satur- day morning at his home in this place. The doctor gave it out that it was heart failure. The fact is he was drunk and whisky was what killed him and his home was a rented shack in Bowdy street.
 On press day of this particular issue the editor of the Times left the city for a days visit to let the old town cool of, and for whole week longer went home through the back alley.-Pros- pectOr.

younger ones were talking about one of the runners on which they had tip and said it was just like finding money to bet on him. They kept it up and it was evil dent the old woman was getting excited.
 "She turned to me and said she intended to go to Palmer Park, but if she thought she could double her money on that horse she would try it. It would enable her to pay her rent, and she had received notice. To my right sat this 'swindler, showily dressed and out for a killing.
 "'Sure thing he replied, be- fore I got in a word. Gi' me your stuff and I'll do the betting for you. Take this ticket I have two"
 II wanted to interfere, but he looked as though he meant to be good to her, so I contented my self with resolution to keep my eye on him. He put her money on the favorite, and the favorite lost. I followed him back to the stand where the old woman was in tears and the dressy women were making game of her. He gave them a look that straight ened their faces and then seized the older ones hand.
 Here, grandma" he laugh ed; T was too smart to put your money on that skate. Your stuff backed the winner, four to one, and he slipped two crisp new tens to her, and told me that was the happiest lie he ever got off. You bet I'd have .bailed him. '' Detroit Free Press.

An uptown reader tells of a "break" made by the tot of the family who was one of party of little girls at a recent straw berry festival in the vicinity of her home. She had been valiant ly boasting of the manifold ad- vantages of belonging to her ia mily, and had managed to hold her own against the vainglorious and ingeuius discourses of her companions. They had gone from clothes to personal appear ances, then to interior furnish ings, then to the number of tons of coal consumed in the home of each during the past winter, and finally brought up to parental dignity.
