Hurled From His Engine.

George B. Askew of 1921 Mifflin
street, Philadelphia, a through
freight engineer on the P, B. &
w. railroad, was struck by an up
right at Big Elk bridge, near Elk,
ton, thrown from his cab and hurl-
ed into the str am below, Saturday
morning last. The body imme-
diately sank and was swept away
by the torrent, the stream being
greatly swollen by the recent
heavy rains. The fireman of the
locomotive saw his engineer whirl-
ed from the cab and Immediately
closed the throttle and brought the
train to stand still. Search was
made for the missing man by the
train crew but without avail. The
engine was backed to Elkton and
after notice of the accident had
been given an engineer was sent
from Wilmington to take the train
to Philada. The creek has been
grappled for miles below the scene
since the accident but the body
has not been recovered. The rail,
road company ON Tuesday offered a
reward of $50, while a like amount
has been offered by Mr.. Askew's
relatives for the recovery of his
body.

meeting to order and stated that
the minutes of the Directors meet
ings held during the past year

association the team had been re-
covered and the thief sentenced to
a term of five years in the peni-
tentiay.
Two or three minor thefts had

fered but no convictions had re-
suited.

bership of eighty-six.

ed to be the one which held the
undivided attention of the men,
bers for nearly an hour and was
unanimously approved.
At two o'clock the Directors met
and reappointed the searchers over
the various routes, in addition to
discussing other matters brought
before them.

Proverbs

~Whee The butter won't
come pr penny in the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is SO perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
Is the most satisfactory treat
ment.
