Last Call! 100000.

To Morris Yenzel, Moscow, Idaho,
came IN 1892 a man and ordered a suit
of clothes. Not having enough ready
cash he offered 5000 shares in LeRoi
mine as payment. Mr.. Yensel, 1
know him we'll, would rather have
had taken cash but at that time of the
year, not having much to do, accepted
the offer. He put the shares down in
the bottom of his trunk. A few years
later came man and wanted to buy
these shares. He then suspected some
thing and kept the stock. These
shares went to $40 each and opr lucky
tailor's shares are.now worth 5000, 900

Boys Drop Stones and Pieces
of Iron Down the Pipe TO
Hear the Splash.
A SERIOUS PROBLEM.
Effort Made to Clean the Pipe but it is
Found to Do so is as Expensive as TO
DR. We Another WeII-PiaCe is now
Carefully Guarded to Prevent Further
Mischief.

One of the eight-inch artesian wells,
which has recently been driven at
Plant No. 3 of the Roessler- Hasslach-
er Chemical company, has been ruined
by children. While the men have
been away the cap has been taken off
and the well partly filled with brick
bats. An effort has been made to get
them out, but Is now thought that the
we'll is ruined and another will have
to be driven.
The new plant being built at Me-
chanic street and Buckingham avenue
will consume much water and for this
reason two eight-inch artesian wells
were driven, one to supply plant No
2, already erected, and one to supply
No. 3, in the course of erection. One
was not to be used for some time SO it
remained just as the driver had finish
ed it, an iron pipe opening into a
concrete basin. 1t was not deemed
unsafe to leave it thus unguarded
AS it was open at the TOP, children
of the neighborhood, wandering around
the premises after work for the day
was finished, discovered the l little
round hole and some of thenN con
celved the idea that a stone wculd

end up with beautiful splash. He
experimental and his supposition was
correct. Wishing to share his fun he
communicated his discovery to the
others.
The result, more stones, bricks,
pieces of iron, nails and other articles
handy and of the right size went
down that gaping hole until just as
they were about to stop it became
evident it was being filed up. A few
more stones and it was. Now the
problem of lifting out the distractions
in the pipe is engaging the attention
of those in charge. A new well may
be driven, for the expense of cleaning
the other will almost equal its first
cost. No way of obtaining the offend
ers being found, no one was punished,
but at present the grounds are closed
and to obtain access in the day is ex-
tremely difficult and after dark more
difficult still.

The fire laddies hope to get at least
one prize for all their pains and

that all the firemen and friends who
want to get hotel accommodations for
the trip without any trouble, can do
so by depositing the sum of 81. 30 with
any of the committee or with William

This sum will entitle the depositor to
a room, breakfast and dinner.
The local fremen have secured the
services of the Lehighton Brass Band,
which Is said to be one of the finest
bands in Pennsylvania. After the
parade in Allentown on Thursday,
fire drills and other feats by the fire

WOMAN ASSAULTED
BY MAN WITH KNIFE:
HAS BEEN ARRESTED.
Police Summoned to North AboyMqn S0 to be Her Husband
Met Her in the Woods She Gong to Work-Her Cries
Scared HIM off and help Arnved Said have Bad Record
Is now AwanIng Hearing

Mrs. John Takac, who lives in
North Amboy, near the Woodbridge
junction, was attacked in the woods
between her home and this CITY this
morning while Oh her way to work in
the local cigar factory. The assailant
is said to be her husband and the
police arrested him this morning.
The woman was slashed in the face
twice with knife. She was carried
to her home where she lies in delir-
ious condition. A telephone message
from the railroad tower summoned
the police to the scene.
The woman, it is said, does not live
with her husband. She started to
work about 6 O'Clock this morning and
was met in a lonely place in the
woods.
The woman called for help when
assaulted and this scared the man
away. Some of her friends hurried
to her assistance and she was taken
back home. An effort was then made
to get medical assistance. In the
meantime the husband returned to the
house and, fearing that he would do
more harm, the police were sum-
moned. At the sight of them the
husband fed. He was employed at
the American Smelling and Refining
Company's plant and the police went
there in the hope of getting him.
The man was evidently watching
them, for when they left the house,
he returned.
A News reporter found him there,
later, but he could not speak English
and he refused to talk through an in
terpreter.
From a-weEan VINO liver III tfr-
house it was learned that the man
was supposed to be living with sever
al different women and that a few
days before the one who was attacked
took him to task.
The prisoner is now held in the
lookup awaiting a hearing. 1t is
thought the woman's injuries are not
serious.
